Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.

At night, Yun Shengsheng returned to her room, turned on the lamp, sat down at the table, and opened the box.

Before she could see what was inside, she heard a rustling sound outside the window.

Immediately afterwards, something hit the window, and it opened with a "creak".

Then a huge eagle flew in, carried by the night wind, and landed on the table, causing the lamp flame to flicker violently.

Yun Shengsheng was startled, and upon closer inspection, she was stunned.

[Hey, isn't that Yan Shijin's eagle?]

I think his name was Xiao Ba, but what's he doing here?

Sigh, I haven't seen it for a while now.

I thought Xiao Ba had gone back to the capital with Yan Shijin, but I didn't expect it to stay behind.

The little dumpling perked up, staring intently with its big eyes as it peered at the eagle.

"This was probably left specifically for you by Yan Shijin."

"He probably wants to protect your safety, and also play with you on the side!"

Yun Shengsheng: "..."

"He's protecting me? Forget it, I'm afraid he'll ruin my hairstyle!"

She still remembers how much Little Eight loved shiny things on other people's heads.

I still remember the first time we met, Xiao Ba snatched the jade crown from Yan Shijin's head.

Just as Yuan Shengsheng was thinking, she saw Xiao Ba pecking at the box with its sharp, hard beak, then turning its head and staring at Yun Shengsheng with its round eyes.

That look in his eyes was incredibly arrogant, as if to say, "Open the box for me now."

Yun Shengsheng couldn't help but chuckle and reached out to touch its head.

Little Eight tucked its wings and twisted its neck, nimbly dodging the attack.

It hopped two steps to the side and raised its head even higher, as if to say, "You mortals are not worthy to touch this eagle."

Yun Shengsheng found it hilarious and finally tentatively touched its paw.

This time, Xiao Ba didn't dodge; instead, it stretched out its paws and let her touch it openly.

The meaning was quite clear: You can't touch my head, but as for my claws, I'll reluctantly let you touch them.

Finally, Yun Shengsheng noticed that Xiao Ba was staring at the box, and she became curious about what was inside, so she opened it.

Then she was speechless.

Why is Yan Shijin's jade crown in here?!

No wonder Xiao Ba showed up; it turns out she still likes this.

Yun Shengsheng handed the jade crown to Xiao Ba to play with, then looked down at the box and instantly beamed with joy.

[As expected, Yan Shijin understands me best!]

At the bottom of the box were a pile of gold leaves, various gems, and several silver notes.

The silver notes are all in denominations of one hundred taels, and there are at least three thousand taels here.

There was another note at the bottom that read:

Sheng Sheng, I wasn't there for your seventh birthday, so this is a belated birthday gift for you!

Yun Shengsheng chuckled and shook her head.

I remember that Yan Shijin was inspecting the border with several generals at that time, and it would take two months. Naturally, he couldn't celebrate my birthday, and he probably forgot about the gift.

[I didn't expect that even after several months, he would still remember...]

Yun Shengsheng happily put away the box, played with Xiao Ba for a while longer, and then...

In the days that followed, Yun Shengsheng was not bored at all.

Sometimes she would go to the military camp to discuss medical techniques with the military doctors. This was a tradition that her master, Master Li, had when he was alive. Whenever she went to a place, she would exchange ideas with the local doctors.

Sometimes, she would also manage the hot spring resort with Chai Lie.

The rest of the time, he either stayed at home sleeping in late or went out running around with a group of newly acquainted daughters of military generals.

These daughters of military families are known for their forthright and easygoing personalities, making them very easy to get along with.

They never hide their grievances; they settle them with a fight on the spot.

Some people used whips, some used knives, and the funniest one was an older sister who used an axe and a big iron hammer.

That strength was no less than that of her fourth sister, Yun Qiaoqiao.

They either dragged Yun Sheng to ride horses or pulled her into the mountains to hunt.

Yun Shengsheng spends her days with Xiao Ba, mingling among this group of people, living a vibrant and carefree life.

Before long, she transformed herself from a fair-skinned little dumpling into a tanned, tomboyish girl.

My health is actually better than before.

Yun Shengsheng thought that this was fine too.

People can't always stay indoors; they need to get some sunshine and fresh air occasionally, otherwise they won't grow tall!

Growing taller is truly an obsession for her...

Soon, spring arrived, and all things began to revive.

And so came the day when Yun Qiaoqiao gave birth.

On the third day of the third lunar month, everyone waited anxiously in the courtyard.

Wenren Jue's impossibly beautiful face was now filled with tension.

He paced back and forth outside the delivery room, and every now and then he would lean against the door, his ear pressed against the door panel.

Where is the aloofness and detachment he had in the military, untouched by worldly dust?

He listened for a while but heard nothing. Nervously, he turned to Yun Huaikang and asked, "Father-in-law, I've heard that childbirth is extremely painful for women?"

"Will it keep calling?"

"But why isn't Qiaoqiao saying a word?"

"No...nothing bad has happened, has it?"

When Yun Huaikang first met Wenren Jue, he thought the man was so beautiful that he didn't seem real, and he was too embarrassed to speak harshly to him.

But after spending more time with him, I discovered that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and a person who valued loyalty and affection very much.

Seeing how anxious he is for his daughter, all the last bit of resentment in my heart has disappeared.

He patted Wenren Jue on the shoulder and comforted him.

"Qiaoqiao has been used to being thrown around since she was little, so she's tough."

"I guess she didn't feel...too much pain."

Actually, he was also feeling uneasy, but he didn't dare to frighten his frail son-in-law any further.

So the two grown men exchanged a glance, and without prior arrangement, pressed their ears against the door, trying to hear what was happening inside.

Gan Yuwan happened to be opening the door and coming out.

The two grown men nearly fell into the house.

Gan Yuwan grabbed them and carried them out, one in each hand, without any irritation.

Of course, she would be gentle with her own delicate son-in-law, but she would drag and pull her own husband.

"Go away! Stop causing trouble! Go do what you're supposed to be doing!"

Wenren Jue and Yun Huaikang squatted awkwardly against the wall, staring longingly at the delivery room door, but dared not approach...
