Chapter 52: Sisters Fighting Over Prescriptions
"Do you know what you are talking about? Your grandmother went through great pains to find a famous doctor to get that prescription. It is extremely valuable. Since you are able to get pregnant, it means that the prescription is indeed effective. You actually gave it to that sickly Jiang Shiyuan. Wouldn't it be better if she couldn't give birth to a son? I want to see if a big family like the Pei family can tolerate a daughter-in-law who can't give birth!"

Second Aunt Zhang said viciously.

On the contrary, Jiang Shijin on the side was very calm, even with a smile on his face, and replied to his mother with certainty.

"Don't worry, mother. Even if I give my elder sister the prescription, she still won't be able to give birth."

"how do you know?"

How did Jiang Shijin know this? It must be from his previous life.

In her previous life, she was pregnant several times, so her grandmother naturally invited her back and kept asking her if she had any secret recipe for having children. Only then did she find out that her eldest sister was born weak and unable to have children.

So this time, when Jiang Shijin was reborn and saw that her elder sister was still taking the medicine, she knew in her heart that she would get the same result, so she was not afraid of sending the prescription over at all. She even made such a suggestion because she wanted to borrow the prescription and put more effort into her elder sister.

"Mother, don't you think about it? My elder sister has been taking medicine for many years. How can her body withstand such abuse? It's unclear how long she can live, not to mention the energy-consuming childbirth. So we don't have to worry about this kind of thing. It's better to take this opportunity to write off the past grudges. My grandmother said something that makes a lot of sense. We are all family. If we are all well, it will really benefit the Jiang family."

Zhang didn't know why her daughter suddenly changed her personality, but she always had her own ideas about marrying the prince, so she didn't say anything more. She asked Mother Qi to bring the prescription impatiently.

Jiang Shijin held the prescription in her hand and unconsciously touched her belly. Although there was no bulge yet, she knew in her heart that she would give birth to Prince Chun's children one after another. After another twenty or thirty years, her descendants would all be royal relatives.

Thinking of this, the grievances I suffered during this period were finally vented and comforted.

After a rest, Jiang Shijin got up and calmed down, then walked out of Tai'an Courtyard, walked along the corridor through the garden, and then arrived at the door of Tingshixuan. When the people in Tingshixuan saw her coming, everyone was a little surprised, but because of her status, they had to invite her in, so Jiang Shijin waited in the corridor, waiting to be notified.

When Lu Luo came in and told Jiang Shiyuan that the Crown Prince's wife had arrived, she had just changed her clothes and was about to lie down for a while. She glanced outside with some curiosity in her eyes and said.

"Just her?"

"Ah."

"Then please come in."

"Yes, girl."

As soon as Jiang Shijin entered the house, she felt the special coolness here, which dissipated a lot of the heat she had just brought along. She suddenly felt that her elder sister might have enjoyed too much, so her life span was so short. If that was the case, then she would rush to bring her a blessing, or maybe even a death warrant.

The corners of his mouth rose more and more hypocritically. After simply gathering his thoughts, he took a step forward and saluted Jiang Shiyuan.

"Big sister, Jin'er is here."

"You don't have to be polite, Princess. According to my rank, I should be the one to pay my respects to you. Unfortunately, I am too tired to get up today. Please forgive me, Princess."

Jiang Shijin looked at Jiang Shiyuan in front of her with a calm face. Sometimes she envied her nonchalant attitude, but sometimes she hated it and felt that she was deliberately putting on an act for her, like now.

If she didn't have something to ask for, she would have immediately turned hostile and walked out, but now she was smiling even more than Jiang Shiyuan, and then she sat on the round chair opposite her, and said without any concern. "This is at home, and the eldest sister is the eldest, so I should be the one to pay my respects."

Hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan understood. It seemed that she came here for a purpose today, so he didn't bother to talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

"Didn't you faint just now? How could Second Aunt bear to let you walk around? Princess, just tell me straight, what do you want from me?"

"Big sister is still as quick-witted as ever. My sister's dizziness is nothing. It's because I'm pregnant and I was excited. The doctor said I'm in good health and I just need to take care of myself."

Jiang Shiyuan was not surprised that Jiang Shijin was pregnant.

After all, she is not herself. She has always been in good health and has been married to Prince Chun's Mansion for several months. It is not surprising that she is pregnant at this time. However, Liuhua and Luluo who were standing next to her were surprised, but they quickly calmed down, nodded slightly, and waited for the Crown Prince's Consort to continue speaking.

"Oh? That's good news. Congratulations to the Crown Prince's Consort."

"You're too polite, sister. I was able to get pregnant so quickly because of the blessing of my grandmother. She personally found a prescription for me. It's a top-notch pregnancy-preserving medicine. I've been taking it since I married the prince, and sure enough, I got pregnant. I thought that you're going to get married soon, and this prescription will be useful to you in the future, so I sent it to you specially."

After saying that, Jiang Shijin handed the prescription to Liu Hua who was standing beside him. Liu Hua took it with a frown on his face, not knowing whether he should present it to his own girl.

"I know that you have been taking medicine for many years, so it may be difficult for you to have children. But you are marrying into the Pei family after all. Life will not be easy for a family like that without children. So, sister, I sincerely hope that you and I can put aside our past grudges. After all, we are both daughters of the Jiang family. Only when we are well, the Jiang family will be well."

Her words were sincere and heartfelt, but unfortunately Jiang Shiyuan didn't buy it.

She knew her own body very well. Any pregnancy-maintaining medicine was useless. If it were useful, the ones that her grandmother and her great-grandmother had people send her in her previous life would have been useful long ago. Why bother waiting until now?
So, he lazily lay on the mat and replied calmly.

"I'm sorry to have caused the Crown Prince's Consort to worry, but I can't use this prescription. The Pei family knows exactly how my body is. This child is ultimately a matter of fate. If I'm destined to have a child, I can have one even if I don't take the medicine. If I'm not destined to have a child, even if I drink a thousand bowls of medicine, it will be useless. So I don't want to take this bitter medicine anymore."

Jiang Shiyuan's answer shocked Jiang Shijin for a moment.

"What do you mean? Can the Pei family accept that my elder sister has no children?"

"Princess, be careful what you say. Our eldest daughter hasn't even married yet, so how can you say you have no children?"

Liuhua quickly stopped Jiang Shijin from speaking. Although her tone was still respectful as a maid should be, her eyes were cold as ice, and she wanted to kick her out immediately.

Jiang Shijin also knew that she had touched a sore spot, which was why the maid spoke like that. However, when she saw that the maid was anxious, but the elder sister in front of her was still as if nothing had happened, she became a little unsure for a moment.

The Wenyuan Marquis Mansion is powerful, but not as powerful as the Pei family.

In the final analysis, she was marrying up just like me! She was marrying up!

The Jiang family didn't have anything or resources that the Pei family could covet, so she felt that even if her elder sister married into the family, she should behave herself like she did. But seeing how calm and natural she looked, as if she would be the master of the family and live a carefree life if she married into the family, Jiang Shijin was naturally unhappy.
