The Prime Minister's Residence.

By the time Sang Yun arrived at the mansion, it was already completely dark.

The guards at the gate saw him and quickly went out to lead his horse over.

The butler hurriedly came out to greet him: "Young master, you're back!"

Sang Yun nodded: "Where is Father?"

"Master is with Third Concubine. Would you like to go there, young master?" The steward's tone was somewhat agitated.

Sang Yun thought for a moment and then shook her head: "Never mind, let's go see Mother first."

My mother is such a proud person, and now everyone outside is talking about her like this. Coupled with how my father treated her, she must be feeling terrible.

Sang Yun felt a little sad as she thought about it.

His strides quickened involuntarily.

Furong Garden.

The First Madam sat by the table, staring blankly at the food that had already gone cold.

Li's mother sighed repeatedly beside her.

Since Yang Liu and Sang Hongfu broke up with her, he has never come to see her again. The reason he finally came in was because Sang Yun was coming back.

Upon hearing that Sang Yun hadn't returned, he rushed to his third aunt's place. Before, Sang Hongfu would never have dared to do such a thing.

Since Ruan Yunyun passed away, he has either stayed overnight in her room or in the study. When has he ever gone to his third aunt's place? Now he's even going to his third aunt's place and doesn't want to stay here with me anymore?

The First Madam's eyes slowly welled up with tears.

She sighed, sat up straight, and was about to ask Li Mama to take the things away when she saw Cuiping limping in: "Madam, the young master is back."

The First Madam's eyes lit up instantly: "Yun'er!"

She got up and walked quickly to the door, just as Sang Yun had already come in. As soon as she saw Sang Yun, she burst into tears: "Yun'er."

Sang Yun stepped forward and hugged the First Madam: "Mother, Yun'er is back."

The First Madam pushed him away, looking at him while sobbing and laughing, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Do you know how much I missed you while you were gone? I... I didn't keep a close eye on your father and let him... let him do that kind of thing!"

As she spoke, she covered her face with her handkerchief again and started crying.

Yang Liu was brought back by Sang Yun. She always thought that Sang Yun liked Yang Liu, which is why she felt so wronged, upset, and guilty when she saw Sang Yun.

Sang Yun pulled the First Madam to sit down on a chair: "It's alright, this isn't Mother's fault."

He glanced at the untouched dishes on the table and instructed Li's mother, "Go and reheat the dishes that Mother likes. Send the rest downstairs. I want to have a meal with Mother."

When Li Mama saw him, she was overjoyed: "Alright, young master, please wait a moment, this old servant will go right away."

As she spoke, she called to the other maids to get moving.

The First Madam wiped away her tears and looked at Sang Yun, saying earnestly, "Yun'er, that Yang Liu is not a good person."

Sang Yun nodded: "My son understands."

He still didn't intend to say much about Yang Liu's matter to the First Madam.

The First Madam is old, so we, as her children, should avoid troubling her with things we can handle ourselves and causing her distress.

Moreover, she has always been quick to anger. If this matter were told to her, she would definitely go to Sang Hongfu or Yang Liu to argue with them. Not only would Yang Liu turn the tables on her, but it might also alert Yang Liu and allow her to prepare in advance.

The First Madam nodded: "It's good that you know, it's good that you know."

She could tell that Sang Yun was hiding something from her, and there must be a reason why he couldn't tell her. She just hoped he knew about it.
