What if (Dong Hua and Feng Jiu Story')

12. Evil Sister In Law

"He prepared bath water for me."

Feng Jiu's answer made the loyal servant's chin drop.

"You didn't help him, did you? I forbade him to ask for your help."

Zhong Lin was even more shocked. Then, feeling that his attitude was rude, he replied nervously, "No, Dihou. Well, I'll excuse myself."

Feng Jiu sensed something wrong so she stopped Zhonglin. "Wait, what's the problem?"

Zhong Lin stopped his steps then turned around. He hesitantly said, "Perhaps, let Dijun handle this matter, Dihou."

Zhonglin's words made Feng Jiu's emotions rise, "I am the Dihou of this palace. Any matter I have the right to know. It doesn't matter if I know it before or after Dijun. Basically I have to know. Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I'm sorry, it's just that the lord of the west sea came with Princess Zhi He."

Feng Jiu sighed. Apparently, it's Zhi He's problem. Feng Jiu controlled her emotions. She looked down, rubbing her stomach again. Zhonglin became uneasy. Zhi He's matter must have made Dihou uncomfortable.

"Okay, let me meet them."

Zhonglin was surprised to hear that, "Dihou, perhaps, It will be better if we wait for Dijun. This..."

"Zhonglin, I'm Dihou here. Shouldn't I meet our guest?"

Zhonglin grew nervous. "Yes, of course you can, Dihou."

Feng Jiu sighed, "Alright. I'm going to see them." And Feng Jiu rose from her seat in a slow motion, typical of pregnant women who treat their stomachs like crystals that break easily.

Zhonglin wanted to help by supporting her, but not wanting to make his overly jealous master jealous, he ended up calling the maid and it was the maid who led Feng Jiu to the living room. Zhonglin followed closely behind. Along the way, Feng Jiu asked, "What's the problem, Zhonglin?"

"I don't know either, Dihou. However, this seems to have something to do with Princess Zhi He's education."

"Zhi He's education?"

"That's right, Dihou."

Feng Jiu stopped her steps and turned to look at Zhong Lin questioningly.

"Zhi He's education in the Western Desert, yet why did the West Sea Lord escort her?"

"Princess Zhi He's education in the Western Desert has been completed, but Princess Zhi He still acts childish and irresponsible towards her duties as the Goddess of water. Dijun orders the lord of the Western Desert to transfer Princess Zhi He to the west sea to learn discipline from the lord of the west sea."

Feng Jiu massaged her waist which suddenly hurt. They continued walking until they reached the living room. Zhong Lin left her and close the door. The two guests bowed respectfully. Feng Jiu nodded then sat on her chair, adjusting to her growing belly.

Zhi He watched her movements. Apparently her foster brother is waiting for a second child. Her heart is sad. Dong Hua and Feng Jiu were apparently quite successful in their household to produce another child which was entrusted to them by the almighty, while she was only an adopted sister who still loved her adopted brother very much.

Feng Jiu noticed Zhi He's gaze on her. However, she only wanted to focus on the west sea lord at this time so she greeted him, "My greetings to the west sea lord."

"Dihou, forgive us for coming so suddenly," The west sea lord became uneasy.

"It doesn't matter, Dijun is in need so I'm the one you guys meet. I hope you won't be disappointed because you haven't been able to meet Dijun yet."
