Aunt Mei!
The personal maids arranged by the Spirit Hall for Bibi Dong.
These women were trained by the Spirit Hall from childhood and have almost never left the Spirit Hall, so they can be said to be extremely loyal.
Their duty is to take care of Bibi Dong, Qian Renshang, and Qian Renxue.
It can be said that Qian Renshang's survival... owes a great deal to Aunt Mei's dedication.
Otherwise, Qian Renshang would have easily been raised to death by Bibi Dong!
"Your child... is so sensible that it breaks my heart.
You must have accumulated eight hundred years of good fortune in your past life to be fortunate enough to be your parents."
Aunt Mei lovingly stroked Qian Renshang's little face. She had watched Qian Renshang grow up over the past two years.
This child was truly the most obedient and sensible child she had ever seen.
No matter what grievances he suffered, he would never cry, always with a smiling face, so innocent and adorable.
After he learned to walk at the age of one, he cooked for himself without their help.
When Bibi Dong asked him to clean the house and even the entire palace, the child never complained.
"Is having someone like me as a child really a happy thing?"
Qian Renshang murmured sadly. But why did Bibi Dong dislike him so much, and his sister too?
"Aunt Mei... I'm leaving now. I need to clean my room, otherwise Mom will be angry."
Qian Renshang waved his little hand to Aunt Mei and ran towards his room.
Along the way, he encountered many maids similar to Aunt Mei, who greeted Qian Renshang warmly.
"Greetings, young master!"
"Young master, slow down..."
"Greetings, aunties, good morning..."
Qian Renshang waved his little hand in return. His room was located in the northeast corner of the main hall.
This was where the servants usually lived. Bibi Dong didn't want Qian Renshang to be so close to her, so she had him move further away, which is why he came here.
His room was very simple!
A simple bed and a table were all he had.
After fetching water, Qian Renshang began cleaning the entire room.
Although the room wasn't big... it was a bit large compared to his small frame.
It took him two whole hours to clean it spotless.
"Ugh... that was tiring!"
After finishing cleaning, Qian Renshang wiped his sweat and said with a satisfied expression.
The maids outside who had been watching Qian Renshang clean from start to finish looked at the boy with pity.
Bibi Dong was the absolute ruler of this palace. She wouldn't allow them to help Qian Renshang with anything, so she had to be self-sufficient.
Qian Renshang had just finished cleaning and was resting when a loud greeting suddenly came from outside.
He knew what this meant.
Qian Renshang immediately stood up. Bibi Dong, dressed in a magnificent purple robe, stood expressionlessly before him.
"That beast is coming today. Pack your things… and come back with me!"
"Really?"
Qian Renshang exclaimed excitedly. He naturally knew who Bibi Dong meant by "beast. "
It was none other than the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, his father in this life, Qian Xunji.
Because of a three-year agreement with Bibi Dong not to interfere with her education of their two children, it didn't mean he wouldn't come to see them during those three years.
On average, about every six months, His Holiness the Pope would come to see the children!
And every time this happened, Qian Renshang could go back to his room, no longer needing to live in this cramped space, and Bibi Dong's attitude towards him would improve dramatically.
"Of course it's true, so you'd better behave yourself today... You know what you should and shouldn't say, right?"
Bibi Dong coldly reminded Qian Renshang.
"I know!"
Qian Renshang replied with a smile, her face full of joy as she started tidying her little blanket, muttering to herself all the while.
"Yo-ho... I can go to Mom and Sister's room today!"
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renshang's happy appearance and was speechless... Was she really that excited?
"Annoying smile... I wish I could never see your smile again!"
Because that beast Qian Xunji was coming, Bibi Dong was even more annoyed and thought maliciously.
10 minutes later!
Bibi Dong led Qian Renshang towards the center of the palace, where she lived...
From a distance, they could hear a man's joyful laughter.
"Hahaha... My good daughter, did you miss Daddy?"
"Daddy missed you so much... You know?
As expected of my daughter, you're so beautiful!"
Hahaha.
Hearing that familiar voice, Bibi Dong's expression instantly turned cold—it was Qian Xunji's voice!
But thinking of her revenge plan, Bibi Dong suppressed her nausea, her expression softening slightly.
She then grabbed Qian Renshang's small hand and picked him up!
It looked like a scene of maternal love and filial piety!
"Remember to behave yourself later...don't say anything out of line,"
Bibi Dong continued, her face expressionless. Qian Renshang nodded quickly.
"Mmm..."
Qian Renshang lay contentedly in Bibi Dong's arms, finding her fragrance wonderful.
"Mommy's embrace is so warm...it's so nice."
Such an embrace is so rare; Qian Renshang only ever received this treatment when Qian Xunji came, so he cherished it dearly!
He lingered longingly in Bibi Dong's arms, while Bibi Dong, carrying Qian Renshang, walked inside expressionlessly.
"Dong'er...you're here! Shang'er's here too! Let Daddy see if he's grown taller."
Qian Xunji, who was teasing Qian Renxue, immediately put the child down, looking at Bibi Dong...and Qian Renshang in her arms with delight.
Qian Renxue also spoke with a joyful expression.
"Mommy..."
Her gaze fell on Qian Renshang, and after a pause, she smiled.
"Little brother's here too..."
"Why did you come after only five months...Qian Xunji, isn't the Spirit Hall busy enough for you?"
Bibi Dong didn't reply, only asking expressionlessly.
"The situation outside is indeed a bit chaotic... and it seems that Ju and Ghost Douluo have discovered some good news recently.
They say there's a walking 100,000-year-old soul beast, an anomaly who has been reborn as a human..."
"I'm just thinking about how to capture them!"
Qian Xunji casually recounted the current situation, then his gaze fixed intently on Qian Renshang in Bibi Dong's hands.
"Dong'er... let me hold the child for a moment. It's been so long."
Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow slightly, and Qian Xunji's expression faltered for a moment before he spoke.
"I can double your future cultivation resources!"
Bibi Dong said coldly, "Triple them!"
"Deal."
Qian Xunji readily agreed. Lately, he had noticed that Bibi Dong's attitude towards him seemed less hostile.
