"I'm sorry, Xiaoxue, I know you so much," Silang gently wiped away her tears, "I know that if the seventh brother was in an accident, with your temper, he would never live alone. That's me, my parents, and we brothers don't want to see it. Besides, you still have the blood of your seventh brother. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the child in your belly. He is the continuation of the seventh brother's life. Do you have the heart to deprive him of his life?"

Xiaoxue sobbed and couldn't speak, Silang continued: "Xiaoxue, promised the fourth brother to live well, give birth to the child, and fulfill the seventh brother's wish. He is the hope of our Yang family."

Xiaoxue stroked her lower abdomen: "Fourth brother, let me promise something?"

"you say!"

"Qilang once said, if you have children in the future, I will give him to you and a few brothers to teach you. Now the three brothers are no longer alive, and you are the only one left. If I have any accidents in the future, this child will ask you."

Shiro frowned, and her words were like explaining his funeral: "Why did you say that? What an unexpected thing! How could an unexpected thing?"

"I am a person from another world. I can see through the fate of everyone in the Yang family, but I can't see my own future. I don't know how long I can stay in this world. Maybe one day, I will suddenly leave and return to my place. At that time, this child is the only concern I can't let go. If I give him to you, I can at least feel at ease!"

"Okay," Shiro nodded, "I promise you that I will definitely regard him as my own and teach him well." Although she was not very clear about what she said to her, she was from another world, no matter what she said, he would agree.

Xiaoxue wanted to say something else, but a heavy cough came from outside the yard. She knew that it was Yelu Xiu Ge reminding her.

"I'll see you again in a few days!" Xiaoxue looked at Silang deeply. After walking a few steps, Silang's voice came from behind, "You have done enough for the Yang family. Don't do anything for us anymore. I just hope you are happy!" Even if she chose to marry Yelu Xiu Ge, he wouldn't mind. Although that man was an enemy of the Yang family, it was also due to the struggle between countries. His feelings for the woman in front of him were not inferior to him, nor to Qilang, and even deeper than them.

Her body trembled. Did Siro see through something? She looked at him: "If you come to this world, you will no longer live for yourself!" She smiled, but tears flashed in her eyes, "But no matter what, it is my greatest happiness to meet you, become the daughter of your parents, and become Shiro's wife." There were thousands of words in her eyes, and the two of them exchanged their eyes. Even if they didn't say anything, the tacit understanding that had been together for more than ten years had been conveyed to each other's hearts.

He nodded and watched her leave.

***

Xiaoxue walked out of the yard and Yelu Xiu Ge came up. When he saw her red and swollen eyes, his face immediately became gloomy and he picked her up: "Let's go back, your body can't stand the fatigue."

"Let me go!" she pushed him.

He was unmoved and held her tightly and speeded up until he returned to the 'jingyuan', and then he gently placed her on the bed, pulled the quilt to cover her. Xiaoxue looked at him: "I want to mourn for my deceased husband for three years. In three years, I will be your wife as promised!" She said straight to the point. In fact, she knew in her heart that she had no qualifications to mourn Qilang at all, because everyone knew that Yang Yansi's wife had committed suicide after he was killed. However, she wanted to gamble on her position in the heart of the man in front of her.

Yelu Xiu Ge stared at her and explored her inner thoughts. He knew the woman in front of him too well. Her intelligence and planning were definitely not inferior to men. Every word she said must have been carefully considered. He looked at her for a long time, but could not find any suspicious places. Her expression showed her seriousness and firmness.

He pursed his lips and looked bright: "I will only give you a year. In a year, whether you want to or not, you must be my wife, otherwise everything will be free." This is his greatest limit of concession.

Xiaoxue lowered her eyes, and after a moment, she looked up at him: "Okay, it's only one year." But she smiled bitterly in her heart. She was lucky that her current physical condition could be delayed until the birth of the child, and she could not wait for a year.

"Let's rest for a while, I'll ask the maid to bring lunch!" He softened his voice.

Xiaoxue closed her eyes, maybe she was really tired, and in just a moment, she fell asleep deeply.

Yelu Xiu Ge gazed at her sleeping face gently. Year by year, just one year, one year later, no matter whether she wanted to or not, he would make her his legitimate wife. He would definitely make her forget Yang Yansi, and would definitely make her... fall in love with him!
