When the Northeast Auntie Gets Involved, She Raises Every Child in the Palace

[Soul transmigration + System + raising children + daily life + adorable kids + food + no palace intrigue]

The thing Jiang Guifen regretted most in her life was taking two jin of pork belly to rescue a child who'd fallen into the water, only to plunge into an icy hole herself and lose her life.

When she opened her eyes again, she'd become Lady Jiang in the harem of the Great Qian dynasty. She had a low rank, a small monthly allowance, and no children. Nearly all nine of the consorts in the harem had children, and her heart clenched whenever she saw them.

The nine-year-old Crown Prince acted like he was thirty and didn't even dare cry properly. The eight-year-old Third Prince wanted to be a general and ran around waving a tree branch every day. The six-year-old Fifth Prince lay sickly in bed and said, "I've been drinking bitter medicine for three years." The several princesses were sensible, clever, and fond of good food, and each one tugged at her heart.

Jiang Guifen slapped her thigh: This is no way to raise children!

She wouldn't scheme in the palace or compete for favor. She would do only three things: care for the children, cook for them, and raise them well.

Tomato and egg stir-fry, sweet and sour pork, candied sweet potatoes... The moment a dish was carried out, the kids came running at the smell.

First, the Fifth Prince got to drink a bowl of good porridge, and color returned to his face for the first time. The Third Prince followed the aroma through the door and became her most loyal "fan." The Third Princess made sure they all got to eat Lady Jiang's cooking. A crowd of children filled the little courtyard, and finally the Crown Prince secretly came over, with the Fifth Princess joining the group too.

She wanted nothing in return. She simply couldn't stand seeing children go without food. If someone was wronged, she'd rush to their side. If someone was stubborn, she'd put food in their hands. If someone had no one to care for them, she'd give them a little extra love.

As she raised one child, they became a group. One group became an entire palace.

In the end, every child in the palace became hers.
