Yun Xiangye, while boating on a spring day, lost her footing and fell into the lake. She was rescued by Gu Yan, a wealthy young master who was recuperating in Jiangnan.
To repay his great kin...
In Qingfeng Garden.
After drinking the medicine, Yun Xiangye felt a little sleepy and took a nap with her eyes closed in Gu Yan's arms.
About a quarter of an hour later, the voice of a maid reporting was heard from outside.
"Prince, the Prince of Chu is here."
Yun Xiangye opened her eyes and looked at Gu Yan.
Seeing Yun Xiangye wake up, Gu Yan said, "Cousin Jing is here. You rest in your room first. I'll go and entertain him."
After Gu Yan finished speaking, he went to the front yard of Qingfeng Garden.
Seeing the uncontrollable annoyance on Zhao Jing's face, Gu Yan asked, "Cousin, who made you angry?"
Zhao Jing handed over the wrapped pecans and said, "My subordinates have made a serious mistake by neglecting their duties. Here is a pound of pecans. There aren't many left in the mansion, so I've sent someone to Jiangnan to buy some."
Gu Yan looked at the pecans in his arms and said, "Thank you, cousin. These are more than enough. Actually, she didn't necessarily want to eat the pecans. She just wanted me to peel them for her as punishment."
Zhao Jing smiled at Gu Yan's tone and said, "You are the son of the eldest princess? How dare she punish you by making you peel walnuts?"
Gu Yan sighed and said, "Alas, she used to be quite gentle in Jiangnan. After coming to Chang'an, she made a fuss with me every day. She only calmed down a little after being sick these past few days. It's really annoying."
Zhao Jing said, "From your tone, you don't sound like you're really annoyed. Is your sister-in-law also from Jiangnan?"
Gu Yan said: "Yes, from Fangqiao, Yongxing City."
Zhao Jing's eyes widened slightly. "From Fangqiao Town? Then did you know there's a five-color embroidery workshop in Fangqiao Town..."
"Daddy."
Before Zhao Jing finished asking his question, he heard a soft voice coming from not far away.
I saw a little ball wearing a peach pink rabbit fur jacket trotting over with a string of candied haws in her hand. She was very interesting and cute.
Gu Yan hurried forward and picked up his little daughter, and put the tiger hat on Nuonuo's head straight: "Nuonuo, call me uncle."
Little Nuonuo looked at Zhao Jing in front of him, tilted his head, and called out obediently, "Uncle."
Zhao Jing looked at the little girl in front of him who was less than two years old and chuckled, "Brother Yan, your daughter is so cute. She looks more like you."
Zhao Jing handed the prepared golden lock to Xiao Nuonuo and said gently, "This is a gift from your uncle. What's your name?"
Nuonuo didn't dare to take the gold locket given by Zhao Jing, and looked at Gu Yan with blinking eyes.
Gu Yan said, "Just take it and tell your uncle, what is your name?"
Nuonuo took the golden lock and whispered, "Baby."
Seeing Nuonuo calling herself "Baby," Gu Yan chuckled and said to Zhao Jing, "Her name is Yunran, her nickname is Nuonuo, and she calls herself "Baby."
Zhao Jing said, "Gu Yunran, what a nice name."
Gu Yan originally wanted to explain that his surname was not Gu, but he thought that less trouble is worse than more, and there was no need to let too many people know that Nuonuo’s surname was Yun.
Gu Yan put Nuonuo down and said, "Go play with your mother. Daddy has something to discuss with your uncle."
Nuonuo nodded. She ran a few steps in her thick coat and fell down. She didn't cry after falling, but stood up and continued running.
Zhao Jing's gaze remained on Nuonuo for a long time. Yun Xiangye had been married for three years, so could she have a child?
Zhao Jing narrowed his eyes and clenched his hands. The thought that she might have a child made him even more annoyed.
Gu Yan looked at Zhao Jing's increasingly angry expression and said, "Cousin Jing, if you have time, why don't you go to the warm room for a drink?"
Zhao Jing nodded in agreement and followed Gu Yan into the warm room.
Gu Yan ordered the servant beside him to fetch a wine pot to warm the wine. After the wine was warm, he poured a cup for Zhao Jing: "Cousin Jing, try this. This is the wine I brewed when I was in Jiangnan."
Zhao Jing took the wine glass and took a sip. "This tastes similar to the wine I had in Fangqiao Town back then. It has a mellow aroma and a sweet aftertaste."
Gu Yan looked at Zhao Jing, "Cousin Jing has also been to Fangqiao Town?"
Zhao Jing said, "Well, I was just about to ask you, do you know the famous Five Color Embroidery Workshop in Fangqiao Town?"
Gu Yan chuckled and said, "Well, of course I know. The Five Colors Embroidery Shop is my wife..."
Before Gu Yan could finish his words, Zhao Jing immediately followed up with, "Do you know which bastard Yun Xiangye, the owner of the Five Colors Embroidery Workshop, married?"
Gu Yan paused smiling, frowned slightly and asked, "Why do you ask this?"
Zhao Jing clenched his fist and said, "Yun Xiangye will be your cousin-in-law in the future."
Gu Yan frowned and lowered his eyes to hide the shock and anger in his eyes.
What cousin-in-law?
It's absolute nonsense!
Zhao Jing finished his glass of wine and said, "Four years ago, Ah Xiang said that her parents had died early, her younger sister was still young and she needed to take care of her, and she also needed to manage the family shop. She swore that she would never marry in this life, but she got married within a year.
The people below are also confused. They didn't even report such a big thing. Do you know which bastard married Ah Xiang?"
Gu Yan picked up the warm wine in front of him and drank it in one gulp. "I don't know who married Shopkeeper Yun, but Shopkeeper Yun and her husband are well-known in Fangqiao Town for their love and affection. They are inseparable, deeply in love, and deeply in love..."
As Zhao Jing listened to Gu Yan's story, the anger on his face grew. "Are you serious?"
Gu Yan said, "Really? They're inseparable whenever they go out. Everyone in town knows that Yun Fangzhu and her husband are very affectionate."
Zhao Jing frowned and said, "Impossible, the person you are talking about cannot be Ah Xiang..."
Gu Yan felt a surge of anger when he heard Zhao Jing calling her Ah Xiang. "Zhao Jing, Master Yun is already married, and it's inappropriate for you to still call her Ah Xiang."
Zhao Jing didn't notice for a moment that Gu Yan had stopped calling him cousin. He said, "What's wrong with that? After all, you can divorce after you get married. I'll get Ah Xiang divorced sooner or later."
