"Madam, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Lan asked the old lady anxiously.

It turned out that the old lady felt dizzy and swayed when she heard her son blaming and complaining about her.

"It's okay!" said the old lady.

"Since mother is fine, I feel relieved. Mother is old and should recuperate well. Let's move to the old house today to recuperate well. Aunt Zhang, you stay in the old house and serve the old lady well in the future." Minister Ma saw that the old lady was fine, so he wanted his mother to move to the old house to recuperate. This was also for her own good.

"I will definitely take good care of the old lady, please rest assured, sir." Zhang Lan said respectfully to Minister Ma.

She was the old lady's maidservant, given to the old master when she was pregnant. From then on, she was not only the old lady's maidservant, but also the old master's sleeping companion. After each intercourse, the old master would have contraceptive soup delivered to her. This was because she could not bear the old master's child, as this was the old lady's requirement. Therefore, she always treated the old master as if he were her own son, and she would complete whatever he asked her to do diligently.

Zhang Lan helped the old lady back to Baomo Hall and asked the maids and servants to pack up their belongings.

"Zhang Lan, did I do something wrong?" the old lady asked her personal nanny Zhang Lan.

"Old Madam, the master has been working hard to climb up the ladder for the Ma family over the years, and finally became the Shangshu. Now, because of the disturbance caused by the Second Concubine, all his efforts have been in vain. It is understandable that he is a little disrespectful to the old Madam. Besides, the old Madam doesn't know the character of the Second Concubine yet. If she is arranged to work in the Shangshu Mansion, how can it not bring trouble to the Shangshu Mansion and the master?" Zhang Lan persuaded the old Madam in a kind voice.

"Zhang Lan, you are right. I was really wrong. Let's go back to the old house and never care about the master's affairs again." When the old lady heard Zhang Lan's words, she also realized that she was wrong.

"It's best if the old lady can think this way. Please take a rest. I will go to pack up the valuables and return to the old house soon." Zhang Lan helped the old lady lie down on the bed while she went to pack her luggage.

The housekeeper came back soon and handed a house deed and a bunch of keys to Shangshu Ma.

Minister Ma also packed up his things and prepared to have them sent to his new house. At this time, the gatekeeper came to report that Eunuch Zhang from the palace had come to urge Minister Ma to move out on the orders of the emperor, who wanted to take back the courtyard.

Minister Ma had no choice but to accompany Eunuch Zhang. After an hour and a half, the servants finally packed up their belongings. Horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts pulled the luggage to the new courtyard.

Minister Ma handed the house deed and keys to Eunuch Zhang, who locked the door and returned to the palace to report to the emperor.

After returning to his new house and settling in, Minister Ma went to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion to find Li Yun.

Li Yun took his family to stay with the Dingbei Marquis for two days. There were no unusual people in the Dingbei Marquis's mansion. Their family was relatively simple: the Dingbei Marquis's old lady, the Dingbei Marquis, the Dingbei Marquis's wife, the Crown Prince Ouyang Mingxuan, and Princess Minghui.

There were no concubines, no maids, and no illegitimate sons and daughters.

Li Yun and her companions arrived at the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion and got off the carriage. The Dingbei Marquis, his wife, and the Crown Prince and Princess greeted Li Yun at the door.

"Your daughter Li Yun greets father and mother." Li Yun paid her respects to Marquis Dingbei and his wife.

"Good, what a good daughter!" Lady Dingbei liked Li Yun very much. It was rare to see them being neither humble nor arrogant, and not being pretentious.

"Let's go in quickly, grandma is waiting for us inside." said Marquis Dingbei.

"Hello, uncle and aunt!" Sanbao said obediently to Ouyang Mingxuan and Ouyang Minghui.

"Okay, Sanbao is so good, auntie will carry you in." Ouyang Minghui likes this lovely niece so much.

"No need, auntie. Sanbao is already a little adult. He can go in by himself. He doesn't need you to hold him." Sanbao refused Ouyang Minghui.

"Okay, auntie won't hold me. Let my little beauty go in by herself." Ouyang Minghui said jokingly.

"Mom, my aunt made fun of me." Sanbao complained to his mother.

"Minghui, why are you acting like a little kid?" Li Yun said jokingly. Her godsister really did act like a little kid sometimes.

"Sanbao, wait and see how your uncle deals with her." After saying this, Ouyang Mingxuan gave Ouyang Minghui a slap on the face.

"Brother, it hurts! You want to hit your silly sister!" Ouyang Minghui covered the place where she was hit and accused Ouyang Mingxuan.

"Do you need me to knock you? You are stupid to begin with, and I am here to help you knock your smart but ungrateful sister!" Ouyang Mingxuan said teasingly.

"Dad, Mom, look, my brother is bullying me!" Ouyang Minghui couldn't argue with Ouyang Mingxuan, so she complained to her parents.

"Well, we have guests here. You should restrain yourself a little," said the Marquis of Dingbei helplessly. Other children were constantly scheming against each other, while her own children were constantly fighting and quarreling. Sometimes she didn't know who to help.

"Mom, I'm not a guest, we're a family, right? Sister!" After saying that, Ouyang Minghui stepped forward and embraced Li Yun.

"Yes, we are a family." Li Yun touched Ouyang Minghui's forehead affectionately, and her tense heart relaxed a little. She was really afraid that Dingbei Marquis would be the same as Shangshu Mansion. She didn't know what to do if that happened.

"Okay, let's go in!" Mrs. Dingbei Hou came to Qin Lanlan and helped her in.

The old lady of Dingbei Hou was already sitting in the main seat in the hall, waiting for Li Yun and the others to come in.

"Grandson Li Yun greets grandma and wishes her good health!"

"The great-grandson (great-granddaughter) has met her great-grandmother. I wish her good health!"

Li Yun brought Dabao and his two siblings to pay their respects to the old lady of Dingbei Marquis.

"Please stand up quickly!" said the old lady of Dingbei Hou.

"Thank you, grandma (great-grandmother)!" Li Yun stood up with Dabao and his two siblings.

"Greetings, old lady!" Chen Mo and Qin Lanlan saluted the old lady of Dingbei Hou.

"Well, you're the princess's parents-in-law, right? You've raised her well!" The old lady of the Dingbei Marquis was delighted. Their mansion was once small, with only two grandchildren, Mingxuan and Minghui. And Mingxuan was away year-round, leaving only Minghui by his side. Now there was Princess Jiahui, and three more great-grandchildren, all of whom were lively, adorable, and well-mannered.

"To answer the old lady, these are all Yun'er's own abilities. We dare not take credit for them," said Qin Lanlan.

"Okay, mother, let's settle the princess first. We'll talk later." Marquis Dingbei interrupted their conversation.

"Yes, it seems I am confused. Minghui, take them to Yunrouxuan and settle them down!" said the old lady of Dingbei Hou.

"Yes, grandma!" Minghui said, and took Erbao and Sanbao to Yunrouxuan.

Li Yun followed behind with Dabao and Xiaohua, Changjiang carried the luggage, and Qinglian supported Qin Lanlan and walked side by side with Chen Mo.

"Sister, my grandmother had Yunrouxuan cleaned up for you to live in." Ouyang Minghui took Li Yun's family to Yunrouxuan and told Li Yun that Yunrouxuan was specially for her.

"Grandma is so thoughtful." Li Yun was very touched. This time, she was really relieved.

Soon, everyone arrived at a separate courtyard. It contained eight main rooms, four guest rooms, a small kitchen, a bathroom, and a toilet.
