Chapter 1026 -1025: Feng’er Wakes Up!
The sky seemed to suddenly clear up!
Liu Sisi couldn’t walk anymore, so she casually leaned against a rock, lying on the boulder and admiring the expanse of azure blue through the brilliantly blooming branches above her head.
It had been such a long, long time since she had experienced such leisure.
She suddenly became enamored with this feeling. This kind of relaxation.
After resting for a long while, she returned to her room, and this time, she inquired about the recent situation at the academy.
“Have you ever heard of Mr. Xu? Mr. Xu’s abilities are acknowledged by all. But he was framed by a villain, and who knows where he might be discarded at the moment. I left him in the academy, it’s no different than leaving him among a pack of wolves, and I don’t know how he is now?”
“Princess, are you trying to test Mr. Xu?”
Xue Yi beside her suddenly realized, then shook her head. The Princess was of regal status, was it necessary to go through such absurd troubles?
“Test? He had passed the test long ago, why are we still talking about testing people?”
“I have heard some about this matter.”
Ms. Gao beside her spoke up: “The teachers from the Di and Liu families were particularly resentful of Mr. Xu’s arrival, and he did not leave a good impression among several teachers. Now, the two groups of horsemen seem ready to clash. I’m really curious though, Mr. Xu quite openly admitted to the accusations when the Di and Liu families brought them up. I heard that the students let out a collective sigh. Since he admitted it himself, why do the students refuse to believe it? There’s nothing more absurd than this.”
“There’s nothing odd about that,” Liu Sisi said with a laugh!
Elder Mr. Xu had very high standards for selecting his students back in the day, which led to most of the students who were willing or daring to vindicate him having left the village school where the incident happened, after he got into trouble. Those who were severely malicious to him later on were probably also people with ulterior motives.
As long as someone with a heart wished to investigate, nobody would believe these things at all.
“How is Elder Xu doing now? Is he still accustomed to living there?”
“He actually lives alone in a corner row, with only two students assigned by the Di and Liu families to be guided by him. It’s quite amusing when you think about it.”
Isn’t it indeed amusing! The once sought-after teacher could now only instruct two students?
“Mr. Xu hasn’t said anything about this?”
“Right, he hasn’t spoken a word. He spends his days deeply engrossed in teaching the two, persisting in the habit of early rising and early sleeping every day.”
That was very much like something Elder Mr. Xu would do.
“And has the Old Master Marquis been running outside all day?”
“The Old Master Marquis says he’s currently busy and can’t come back. Who knows who the Old Master Marquis has been talking to these past two days, only returning at nightfall.”
“…”
Having understood the whole story, Liu Sisi thought about it and still decided not to meddle in the academy affairs.
Elder Mr. Xu went to the academy, which was already like snatching food from the tiger’s mouth. She would find it strange if the tiger didn’t guard its food.
Feng’er finally woke up, her spirits extraordinarily low. Seeing Liu Sisi come in, her face broke into a sweet smile: “Third Aunt, you’ve come? That’s great, please come sit over here.”

“Be careful, try not to move so much, lie down quickly.”
Liu Sisi reached out to help her up, settled her back into a comfortable position, and covered her with the quilt.
“You mustn’t bathe or wash your face this one month. You’ve already been through childbirth and sustained injuries; you need to be extra cautious,” she said.
“I understand that, Third Aunt. You don’t have to worry,” Liu Sisi replied.
Feng’er spoke with an unusually sticky tone, “Third Aunt, Feng’er thanks you for giving me a second chance at life. I will never forget this great kindness, not even when my teeth fall out.”
This favor was too heavy; Feng’er didn’t know how she could possibly repay it.
“We’re family; what’s all this talk of favors and debts? It’s unpleasant to hear!” Liu Sisi gave Feng’er a stern look. “Take back those words. From now on, we just need to close the doors and live our lives well, without thinking too much.”
As she spoke, she gently patted her shoulder, “Lie down and rest well. You’re still in your confinement period and shouldn’t move around too much or sit up for long periods. Do you understand?”
Liu Sisi instructed earnestly.
“Mm, Feng’er will listen to Third Aunt… Third Aunt…”
Feng’er’s eyes turned red as she clung tightly to Liu Sisi’s hand, not letting go.
“Go to sleep now! I’ll go check on the child. Since he was born, I haven’t had many chances to look at him.”
After finishing her words, she tucked Feng’er in and then turned towards the child’s cradle.
The cute, pink little child had obviously grown a whole size bigger, lying obediently in the cradle, sleeping soundly. Bending over, Liu Sisi lifted the child into her arms, swaying gently, seemingly returned to those brief happy days when she herself had given birth to triplets.
When the children grew up, they each had their own minds, went in their own directions, and it was rare to see them even once in a year. Her heart always felt hollow, which was very unbearable.
She held the child for quite a while, until it was time to change his diaper. Finally, with reluctance, Liu Sisi handed the child over to the nanny hired specifically for him and then stepped out of the room.
The air was fresh outside, exceptionally quiet in the courtyard.
It was obvious that Ironsmith Fan had considered soundproofing when he bought this place to set up his blacksmith’s shop. But as a blacksmith, it wasn’t realistic to expect it to be completely quiet, was it?
Ironsmith Fan seemed to be instructing a kitchen maid, who nodded continuously, seeming very focused.
After Ironsmith Fan had finished giving instructions, he turned around just in time to meet Liu Sisi’s gaze.
In just a few days, Ironsmith Fan appeared to have aged considerably. He seemed rather constrained upon seeing Liu Sisi.
“The Princess has seen the child, right? So tiny, just a little bit big. If he eats well and grows into this size, that would really please me.”
“I have seen him, and he truly is adorable. Yet he’s still so small, it’s hard to imagine what he will look like grown up, whether it would be immediately obvious if he is a boy or girl.”
“Hahaha… I really do adore this child from the bottom of my heart. I will raise him well so he can carry on the Feng family’s lineage.”
The ancients always placed great emphasis on continuing the family line. Although Liu Sisi did not necessarily agree with this practice, she didn’t voice any objections. “But of course, we must make a big deal of the child’s one-month celebration. I will definitely come myself to wish him well.”
The child is innocent!
Watching the child grow up healthy day by day filled her heart with an indescribable feeling.
Liu Sisi listened in silence, merely nodding her head. It was after personally handing the child over to Di Cheng that the two of them left.
“We can’t be stingy with the gift this time; it also shouldn’t exceed what his elder sister and brother received, so as not to break the rules. In this case, I might have fewer options than I had for the brother and sister. Additionally, I will forge a longevity lock for him, to bless him with a long and healthy life, growing up quickly,” she said.
