The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 17 - The Battle Continues_1

Although Situ Xin felt Lv Yan was pitiful, she didn’t pity her.

This was because what Lv Yan had suffered today was the bitter fruit of her own wrongdoing, and indeed, the saying “Those who are to be pitied also have traits that are despicable” made a lot of sense.

While Situ Xin watched Lv Yan’s retreating figure and reflected, Old Master Situ approached her anxiously, “Baby, why were you crying so hard just now?

Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?” Situ Xin was impatient.

That had happened a long time ago, and she had long since stopped crying.

Indeed, she had ceased her tears when Old Master Zhang began reprimanding Lv Yan, as she had achieved her objective and saw no need to waste her energy and tears anymore.

“I think the baby is probably just hungry,” Loo Yaxin stepped in timeously and answered on Situ Xin’s behalf.

After Lv Yan’s incident, the celebration of Situ Xin’s full-month continued as if the unhappy scene had never occurred, and as if Lv Yan had never been there at all.

That day, Situ Xin was exhausted.

While Loo Yaxin held Situ Xin, showing her off to her friends, Situ Xin endured rough handling by these women.

One moment, someone pinched her face: “Wow, Yaxin, your daughter’s skin is so tender.

I’m envious.” Soon after, another leaned in to pinch her face.

“Ah, Xiao Xin is so adorable, and so beautiful too.” Thus, they took turns, and Situ Xin’s skin, which was already delicate, had turned embarrassingly red from their pinching.

Loo Yaxin looked at her daughter’s flushed face and felt a pang of remorse.

She regretted showing off her daughter to her friends.

After the full moon feast, Situ Xin resumed her previous life.

To outsiders, she appeared like a normal baby, eating and sleeping, and occasionally she was responsible for keeping several elders happy.

Originally, Situ Xin only needed to keep her grandfather and maternal grandfather company, but after the full moon feast, the number of people she had to entertain suddenly increased.

The gatherings that Old Master Situ and the others used to have were always held at restaurants or similar places outside.

But since Situ Xin’s full moon feast, the venue for these elder’s gatherings had moved, now being switched to Situ Xin’s home.

And whenever the elders gathered, how could they do without having Situ Xin by their side?

Elder Yu, Old Master Zhang, and Old Master Loo often competed with Old Master Situ to hold Situ Xin.

Of course, this was how others saw Situ Xin’s life.

Situ Xin’s true life included something additional, and that was practicing cultivation in her personal space.

During this period, Situ Xin couldn’t sneak into the space to cultivate during the day.

Indeed, Old Master Situ and the others could enter Situ Xin’s room at any time.

Every time Situ Xin saw them enter her room without knocking, she really wanted to shout at them, “That’s impolite!

At least knock before entering.”

As Situ Xin’s cultivation level progressed, the space also upgraded along with her cultivation level.

Since Situ Xin’s current cultivation level was still quite low, the space’s upgrades were minor, such as the land expanding a tiny bit.

Usually, because the changes were too minute, they went unnoticed.

It was only after Situ Xin had broken through to the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer that she noticed the changes in the space.

For instance, the land used for planting spirit grass had expanded a little, and the pond had grown slightly too.

Overall, Situ Xin’s space had indeed expanded a bit.

Situ Xin was very happy to see the land expansion.

Previously, she had thought about planting other things, like vegetables, on the land within the space.

Situ Xin, having been reborn, knew that in the future, Earth’s environment would be devastated.

The vegetables and fruits that people consumed would all be subjected to secondary pollution.

The taste that these vegetables and fruits should have had already vanished.

The “Phoenix Nest” personal space that Situ Xin owned, however, had air quality that was incredibly pure, and it was full of spiritual energy.

Although Situ Xin didn’t know what it would be like to grow vegetables there, seeing how well the spirit grass and fruit trees were growing without fertilizers, she thought that vegetables would also thrive in this space.

Previously, when Situ Xin had entered the space, the land was covered with spiritual herbs, many of which had been lost to the outside world.

Situ Xin was reluctant to destroy them as she still didn’t have the ability to practice alchemy.

With so much spirit grass on the land, she temporarily had no use for them.

Moreover, Situ Xin dared not uproot them from the land.

She was afraid that once removed, the spiritual herbs would lose their efficacy.

So, she let them continue to grow and take up space.

Recently, every time Situ Xin entered the space, she would drool over the fruit trees by the river.

Of course, drooling might be an exaggeration, but Situ Xin had indeed been coveting the fruits on those trees for a long time.

Sadly, as a little kid who hadn’t grown a single tooth yet, all she could do was drool over the fruit trees.

However, Situ Xin had found some opportunities during this time to occasionally draw spiritual spring water from the space for her family to drink.

Of course, Situ Xin dared not take out too much.

She would generally add a little bit of Spiritual Spring into the teapot when the adults weren’t looking, or put a tiny amount into the cups from which her family members drank water.

Situ Xin didn’t dare to add too much, as she was afraid that her family might show noticeable reactions if they drank too much spiritual spring water.

She could inconspicuously add Spiritual Spring to the teapots and water cups drunk by her family only after she had reached the Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer.

Once Situ Xin had cultivated to the fifth layer, her mental strength had increased significantly, allowing her to freely control everything inside the “Phoenix Nest” space from outside.

It was only at this time that Situ Xin truly became one with the “Phoenix Nest” space.

Before, although the “Phoenix Nest” was within her body and recognized her as its master, it hadn’t fully accepted her.

Only when she advanced to the fifth realm of the “Dance of the Phoenix Nine Styles” did the space and the master become one.

Even a tiny bit of the Spiritual Spring added to the water would instantly make it taste sweet.

The tea brewed with such water was also extraordinary.

This wasn’t Situ Xin’s review, of course, because she was too young to drink tea.

This was said by Elder Yu and the other old tea drinkers.

After drinking it, they even asked Old Master Situ where they had found such mountain spring water.

Besides swapping spring water, Situ Xin also occasionally replaced the fruits bought by her family with those from her space.

Although the space’s fruits looked better than those bought outside, luckily they were roughly the same size as regular fruits, so Old Madam Situ and the others didn’t notice anything unusual.

They just thought that the fruits they bought this time tasted much better than usual.

Every time her family members, like her brother Situ Jin, were enjoying the delicious fruits, it almost made Situ Xin, watching from the side, drool.
