Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 581: Bizarre (2)

Qiqi really wanted to return to the palace to ask his sister’s teacher what was going on. Hadn’t they seen each other in just a day? Was this what it felt like, as if they were separated for three autumns?

"No way, it has to be a child born by mother. Then, I can teach him martial arts every day and also teach him to ride horses for hunting." Qiqi started to fantasize about taking his younger brother hunting in the forest, wielding the Treasured Sword to uphold justice in the martial world.

Yueyue looked at her brother’s infatuated expression, and her mind automatically began to fantasize about leading her younger brother in brewing potions and catching insects to practice with cups. When they had some spare time, she could even have her brother serve tea and pour water. The thought was simply delightful. Turning back, she slapped her thigh and said, "Big brother, I’ve decided. I’m definitely going to have mother birth us a little brother." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Qiqi’s heart leaped with joy, though his face remained expressionless as he looked at his sister, "Do you think you can convince mother?"

"I can’t, but that won’t stop my desire for a brother."

"Then what do... you plan to do?" Qiqi felt a chill down his spine. Surely she wasn’t thinking of drugging mother, was she?

Yueyue revealed a cute smile, "Hehe, of course I’m going to drug mother."

"You... Aren’t you afraid of dying miserably? Besides, mother isn’t foolish. Moreover, do you think your skills are up to it? Mother is an expert in poisons; be careful, or you might end up with a noble death without success." Qiqi was truly frightened. If their plot were to be uncovered, the punishment they would receive from their father would be far more cruel than just squatting in the horse stance. He started to ponder whether he should tattle.

"Hehe, big brother, mother practices with poisons, but what I practice with isn’t. Besides, there are many medical books in the space. I can do it while checking them, then test on mother. If it doesn’t work once, I’ll try twice. In any case, I am determined to have mother conceive," Yueyue said resolutely, with a firmness in her voice.

Qiqi’s heart trembled. What did she mean by doing it while checking? And testing on mother? Wasn’t this... a road to certain death? His sister’s idea... left him practically speechless. No, he had to stop his sister from such a crazy act.

"Sister, why don’t you ask father for some pills to replenish mother’s health?"

Yueyue looked disdainfully at her big brother, "Dad is in cahoots with mother. Are you thinking of walking into a trap?"

"That might not necessarily be the case. If all else fails, I’ll go ask father, and you can secretly give them to mother to replenish her health." Qiqi rolled his eyes, thinking this would be the safest way to ensure mother won’t find out.

Yueyue thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright, you go. Leave the rest to me."

Qiqi winked at his sister, chuckling to himself. Now father could share those historical stories with him. The idea was very appealing, yet unbeknownst to him, the medicine father would give was not a health supplement, but a conception potion.

Feng Xuxu sat engrossed in a picture book on the makeshift bed, unaware that at this moment, three people were thinking of her.

It was getting darker outside, and the rain fell harder. The wind howled, and the fine raindrops pattered against the tent, making a crackling sound.

Inside the tent, candlelight flickered back and forth. Feng Xuxu’s eyes, sore from the soft strain, watched the flickering candle flame. Finally, out of frustration, she took out a huge Luminous Pearl from her space. Instantly, the tent brightened considerably.

"My wife, it’s getting dark, and the weather is poor. Stop looking and wait until tomorrow. It’s not too late." He reached over, took the picture book from his wife’s hands, and casually placed it on the wooden bed.

Feng Xuxu nodded. Gazing at the book was indeed straining on the eyes. She turned to look around the large tent, just the four of them in their family, yet they were nowhere to be seen. She asked the person beside her in confusion, "Where are they?"
