Matriarchal Desires

When Xiao Lian saw Yun Mei across from him, he quickly looked away, remembering the small servant who usually bullied him and was often by Yun Mei’s side. Fortunately, he hadn’t seen that servant earlier. He glanced towards the vermilion gate of the Jin residence, saw the servant walking towards their carriage, and shifted his gaze to Jin Mo. Jin Mo was also looking at Xiao Lian, causing his heart to race. Frustrated, he pulled down the window curtain and turned his back, feeling unlucky today.

Su Xi noticed Xiao Lian’s expression and smiled helplessly. “Want to see the baby?”

Xiao Lian cheerfully came to Su Xi’s side, gently placing his hand on Su Xi’s belly.

He treasured the baby, touching it very softly, afraid of accidentally hurting it.

Su Xi smiled at the sight of Xiao Lian’s happiness. With his wife and Xiao Lian by his side, life felt good.

After a while, Su Xi prepared to check the window. “The wife doesn’t seem to have arrived. I’ll go check.”

Xiao Lian quickly blocked the window. “She hasn’t come yet. No need to look.” He didn’t want his brother to see those annoying people or be bullied.

Hearing the sound of hooves, Jin Mo turned to see Jin Yu carrying Xu Yi out of the carriage, landing smoothly on the ground.

Seeing Xu Yi, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time, Jin Mo gazed blankly, his beautiful eyes unfocused.

Xu Yi had already tidied his clothes when he came out, his face flushed with shyness as he lowered his head. After Jin Yu put him down, he nervously clutched her clothing, afraid of being left behind.

Jin Mo smiled softly, his eyes gentle. “Xu Yi, congratulations.”

Hearing the voice, Xu Yi froze slightly, uncomfortable as he lowered his head and stayed close to Jin Yu, his voice barely a whisper. “Thank you.”

Jin Mo looked at Jin Yu, his smile unchanged. “Elder sister, take care.”

“Mm,” Jin Yu replied flatly. “Take good care of the Jin family.” Now that everything was settled, she was ready to leave.

She had never been attached to the Jin family, having lived numbly in the world before. Jin Yu held Xu Yi’s delicate hand, determined to live well for them.
