Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuancheng burst into laughter upstairs.

“Yuanxi, look! Jiang Ruowei’s face is about to turn as black as the bottom of a pot,” he laughed.

Jiang Yuanxi peeked out and happened to meet Jiang Ruowei’s gaze.

Jiang Ruowei’s anger had not yet subsided when she suddenly saw the little baby girl on the second floor of the Lan Fang Pavilion.

“It’s them!”

A sudden sense of panic surged in Jiang Ruowei’s heart.

Jiang Yuanxi hadn’t expected to be caught peeking.

She bared her teeth in an awkward grin, trying to appear friendly.

Her mother had told her to smile at relatives.

Although she didn’t want to show Jiang Ruowei a good face, she still had to put on an act.

However, in Jiang Ruowei’s eyes, this smile turned into provocation.

That household had taken her prescription and made money from it.

Jiang Ruowei clenched her fists tightly and glared viciously at Jiang Yuanxi.

It was all because of her that her aunt hadn’t adopted her as a daughter, leading to all these changes.

Suddenly, she thought of something.

Could it be that Jiang Yuanxi was also reborn?!

Otherwise, how could all these unexpected changes be explained?

At this thought, Jiang Ruowei’s hostility toward Jiang Yuanxi deepened.

As Jiang Ruowei walked away, Jiang Yuanxi was puzzled.

She had smiled at Jiang Ruowei, but Jiang Ruowei didn’t smile back.

She even glared at her.

How rude.

Feeling indignant, Jiang Yuanxi, under Jiang Yuancheng’s astonished gaze, lifted her pant leg and pulled out a stick.

She drew something strange on the ground, resembling a talisman drawn by a Taoist priest.

“A misfortune charm—to curse Jiang Ruowei for not smiling at me.”

Just as she finished drawing, a sharp scream came from outside.

A lump of bird poop landed right on Jiang Ruowei’s head.

Jiang Yuanxi, satisfied, stuffed the stick back into her pant leg.

Looking up, she saw her fourth brother grinning at her foolishly.

Hearing the screams outside and seeing the eerie symbol on the ground suddenly vanish, Jiang Yuancheng had an epiphany.

His sister was definitely a little fairy sent from the heavens.

Otherwise, why would the bird poop land so precisely on Jiang Ruowei’s head?

Jiang Yuancheng admired his sister even more.

On the way back from Lan Fang Pavilion, Madam Chen had already prepared gifts.

Seeing her daughter, Madam Chen stepped forward and picked her up.

“Yuanxi, let’s go. Mother is taking you to visit someone.”

“Visiting!” Jiang Yuanxi was overjoyed.

“Great! I love visiting!”

She had yet to realize the gravity of the situation.

Watching her daughter still giggling foolishly, Madam Chen hesitated.

But in the end, she gritted her teeth and carried her onto the carriage.

Arriving at the Duke’s Mansion, many noblewomen came out to greet them.

Their eyes burned with excitement as they stared at Jiang Yuanxi.

Jiang Yuanxi’s face turned pale with fear, suddenly remembering the terror of being surrounded by these aunties at the flower appreciation banquet.

“Mother!” She burrowed into Chen Shi’s arms.

“Greetings, Madam Jiang.”

Regardless of their status or rank, all the noblewomen respectfully greeted Madam Chen.

But their eyes remained fixed on the little baby in her arms.

Madam Chen, ignoring her daughter’s pleading gaze, reluctantly handed Jiang Yuanxi over.

Soon, the crowd surrounded her, leaving only Madam Chen and Chun Zhi standing aside.

Madam Chen felt heartache, but there was no choice.

Since the flower appreciation banquet, rumors had spread in the capital that Yuanxi could not only predict the gender of unborn children but also bless women with sons.

Their house had been flooded with visitors.

Coincidentally, Lan Fang Pavilion had just opened. If they seized this opportunity, they could solidify its reputation.

This would naturally hinder Jiang Ruowei’s business empire.

But it meant sacrificing her daughter a little.

With a sigh, Madam Chen said, “Let’s go inside.”

Jiang Yuanxi’s round face was already covered with lipstick marks.

“Yuanxi, do you think it’s a boy or a girl in my belly?”

“And me?”

“Yuanxi, when will I get pregnant?”

…

Having many beauties around was a good thing, but being surrounded by so many was also a burden.

Especially when each one leaned in with their bright red lips.

“Quiet!” Jiang Yuanxi roared.

“Line up!”

She used all her strength for these two commands.

One noblewoman quickly reacted and took charge of the situation.

“Quick, Yuanxi said to line up. If we line up, she will help us.”

In just three seconds, a long line formed in front of Jiang Yuanxi, resembling a palace consort selection.

Jiang Yuanxi breathed a sigh of relief, climbed onto a table, and pointed at the first lady in line.

“You, come here.” Her little face was stern, pretending to be profound.

The noblewomen behind her were dying to scoop her up and smother her with kisses.

But alas, they had to wait their turn.

At the same time, they were all envious of Chen Xinwan for giving birth to such an extraordinary daughter.

Meanwhile, Madam Chen went inside to find Han Qianhua.

She didn’t dare look at the courtyard, afraid that her daughter would plead for help.

Afraid that if she saw Yuanxi, she would soften her heart.

These noblewomen were all prestigious figures in the capital and knew their limits.

They wouldn’t harm Yuanxi.

Back outside…

Jiang Yuanxi sat cross-legged on the table while a maid occasionally fed her fruit.

She glanced at the noblewoman before her.

“Baby, it’s a girl.”

“Really?” Imperial Uncle’s daughter-in-law, Shi Ruomei, covered her face, overjoyed.

She and her husband already had a son, and their family had always had only one heir per generation.

She had longed for a daughter.

Overwhelmed, she finally pounced forward and planted a big kiss on Jiang Yuanxi.

Jiang Yuanxi was numb.

Why did this always end with being kissed?!

Shi Ruomei composed herself and stepped aside to watch.

Next, Madam Li carefully sat down and stretched out her hand.

“Yuanxi, can you tell me why I haven’t been able to conceive?” she asked gently, afraid of startling the little doctor.

Jiang Yuanxi placed her tiny hand on Madam Li’s wrist.

“Your body is weak. Take care of it properly, and next year, you’ll have a baby.”

Madam Li was ecstatic.

She had hurt herself giving birth to her first child, and the doctors had told her she could never conceive again.

For years, she had taken care of her health, but there had been little hope.

Yet Yuanxi had given her hope!

Overcome with joy, Madam Li gave her another big kiss.

Jiang Yuanxi’s face was blank.

She coldly ordered, “Next!”

Sitting before her now was Madam Zhou, the wife of the Minister of Personnel.

As soon as she sat down, Jiang Yuanxi immediately noticed something off.

“Auntie, you’ve been poisoned.”

One sentence was enough to make Madam Zhou nearly fall off her chair.

The noblewomen gasped.

Madam Zhou’s lips trembled as she looked at Jiang Yuanxi.

Years ago, her husband had brought home a woman who secretly poisoned her, rendering her infertile.

Her husband had punished the woman and dismissed all his concubines as compensation.

But being childless had always been her greatest sorrow.

And now, this little girl had identified her poisoning at just one glance.

“Yuanxi, can you cure me?” If she could be cured, Jiang Yuanxi would be worshiped as the patron saint of her family!

Jiang Yuanxi initially wanted to refuse—it was too troublesome.

“No.”

Before she could finish, Madam Zhou pulled out a thousand-tael banknote.

Jiang Yuanxi’s eyes sparkled.

She quickly changed her tune.

“I can! Definitely can! You’ll have three babies in two years!”

Madam Zhou, overjoyed, hugged and kissed Jiang Yuanxi.

Just then, another noblewoman sat before her.

Jiang Yuanxi blinked.

What a coincidence.
