Chapter 92: I Have a Daughter

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Jiang family used to be one of the richest families in the capital. After the current emperor ascended the throne, the national reserve was in deficit. A random reason was given and the top five richest families in the capital had their assets confiscated. The Jiang family was the first to bear the brunt.

All the money that was in their possession was handed over involuntarily. Even their house was confiscated after they were given a random excuse. They were ordered to leave the city immediately and not return to the capital.

Helpless, Father Jiang led a wandering life with his family using the money he had secretly stashed away. In the end, they settled down in Peach Blossom Village.

However, he suffered from depression and passed away not long after. Before he died, he was still worrying about not being buried in the ancestral grave. He was filled with regrets when he died.

The Jiang family had lived in the capital for generations. Even their ancestral graves were in the capital. Now, they could only die in a foreign land. Even until his death, Mr. Jiang couldn’t step out of his depression.

For generations, the Jiang family had maintained an untainted reputation, but the current emperor had accused them of something they did not commit. As a result they could not return to their hometown even if they died.

Although Jiang Danhe was still young at that time, he remembered Mr. Jiang’s last wish. He could still remember his father’s last words. Before breathing his last, Mr. Jiang told his son that he must restore the reputation of the Jiang family and let him return to his hometown. After saying that, he passed away.

This was also why Jiang Danhe had decided to help Shao Zhan ascend the throne. Once Shao Zhan became the emperor, he could petition and use his achievements to restore the Jiang family’s reputation. By then, he could move his father’s grave back to the capital and let him rest in peace.

Jiang Danhe retracted his thoughts and carefully opened the letter. He took a deep breath and read the contents without blinking. Slowly, joy spread across his face and his brows relaxed in joy. His red lips were covered in a dazzling smile.

At this moment, his tense face looked like it had been kissed by the spring breeze. His handsome face was now enhanced by a look of warmth, making him look even more attractive.

When he came to the end of the letter, Jiang Danhe put it down and heaved a sigh of relief. There seemed to be tears in his eyes. He was relieved that they were doing well.

Li Shouji thought he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked at Jiang Danhe blankly for a long time.

“I have a daughter!”

Jiang Danhe repeated this sentence several times. Li Shouji came back to his senses and looked at him speechlessly. “Do you want me to go out and publicize it for you?”

After reading the letter, Jiang Danhe kept muttering this sentence. He had a daughter. He had a daughter. Li Shouji was excited and happy for him at first, but later on, he only wished that he could shut him up!

He was just bullying a lonely man like him.

After Jiang Danhe said the words for another time, Li Shouji couldn’t help but reply, “Yes, yes, yes! A fair and chubby daughter in pink!”

Jiang Danhe did not continue. Looking satisfied, he carefully folded the letter and placed it in front of his chest. He gently patted the paper which was placed at the same level as his heart.

This note was his connection to his family. He felt like he had infinite power when he put it here. He had to live well and go back to accompany his mother, his wife and his daughter as soon as possible.

With this in mind, Jiang Danhe was no longer distracted all the time. Every day, there was an endless amount of power accumulating in his chest. He checked the route to the palace and the personnel list over and over again.

This was hard on Li Shouji, who had to follow Jiang Danhe around. Li Shouji had been going everywhere with him on a daily basis. The more Jiang Danhe walked, the more energetic he became. The one who was suffering was Li Shouji.

During the day, he had to keep following him. At night, he had to drink and chat with him about the daughter he had yet to meet.

Li Shouji finished his work for the day and returned to the house. He threw himself onto the bed and raised his hand to rub his swollen legs. Every day, Jiang Danhe had his daughter to give him strength, but he did not.

Just as he was about to get up and wash up, there was a knock on the door. Li Shouji’s muscles tensed up and he looked warily at the figure outside the door.

“Li Shouji!”

Jiang Danhe’s voice came from outside the door with a bottle of wine in his hand. Li Shouji let out a long sigh. Here we go again…

“Zhuang Zhuang, light the fire!”

Xiaoguo was in the kitchen, wrapping a pie. She was almost done. When Zhuang Zhuang put the fire on, she should be done with the pie.

Zhuang Zhuang had been waiting for a while. He was just waiting for Xiaoguo’s order to start the fire.

When he heard Xiaoguo’s voice, he lit the fire excitedly at the spot where Xiaoguo had told him earlier.

Xiaoguo saw that the oven was dry this morning, so she wanted to test if it would work. When it was time for lunch, Xiaoguo told Zhuang Zhuang that they would have baked pies for lunch. She even taught Zhuang Zhuang how to light a fire within the oven.

When Zhuang Zhuang had successfully lit the fire, Xiaoguo’s pies were ready. She placed them on a bamboo board, and would put them into the oven later.

Xiaoguo walked outside and went to the oven. Zhuang Zhuang was squatting there, looking up and observing the fire. He remembered his mother saying that the oven would be ready when the wooden sticks were almost burnt through.

“Is the fire almost ready?” Xiaoguo asked Zhuang Zhuang.

When Zhuang Zhuang heard this, he skipped over to Xiaoguo’s side and wrapped his arms around her. “Not yet. The fire is still burning brightly.”

Xiaoguo held on to Zhuang Zhuang and nodded. There was no hurry anyway.

Taking advantage of the fact that she had some free time, Xiaoguo asked Zhuang Zhuang to bring out the soiled clothes so that she could wash them. Zhuang Zhuang nodded and returned to the house. After a while, he came out with a pile of clothes.

After placing it beside Xiaoguo, he went to watch the fire.

Xiaoguo was curious about what was going on. Zhuang Zhuang would usually sit beside her and watch her. Why was he acting so strangely today?

As much as she wanted to ask him, Zhuang Zhuang does have a bad temper. If he didn’t want to tell her, she wouldn’t be able to get it out of him.

Thinking along this line, Xiaoguo decided to forget it. Perhaps the boy had something on his mind.

Xiaoguo looked down and picked up the clothes before throwing them into the basin. As she did so, she realized that there was a pink dress wrapped in a pile of dark clothes.

“Huh? What is this?”

Xiaoguo picked it up and saw that it was the pink outfit that Zhuang Zhuang had worn a few days ago.

Why has it been rolled into a ball and stuffed among the other clothes? Xiaoguo was very curious. She looked up at Zhuang Zhuang and wanted to ask him.

However, when she turned around, she met a pair of big eyes that were secretly sizing her up.

When he realized that he had been spotted, his big eyes flickered and he immediately lowered his head, pretending like nothing had happened.

“Was Zhuang Zhuang still feeling shy?”

Xiaoguo couldn’t help but recall how he had worn these clothes a few days ago. She wanted to laugh, but Zhuang Zhuang was around. She quickly turned around and lowered her head. Her hands were busy washing the clothes, but her shoulders were trembling.

Xiaoguo did not dare to laugh at Zhuang Zhuang anymore. She still remembered how she had failed to pacify him the last time she came back. As soon as she reached home, the little guy opened the door and ran into the house. Xiaoguo secretly followed behind him to see what was wrong.

As soon as she entered the house, Xiaoguo tiptoed to the room and opened the door. She looked around to see where the boy went.

The little man was standing in front of the mirror in a daze. He was twisting and turning, and admiring himself in the mirror. To be precise, he was admiring his clothes.

The expressions on his face alternated between annoyance and confusion.

Seeing him like this, Xiaoguo covered her mouth desperately and backed out the door, laughing silently to herself.
