Yun Xiangye smiled and said, "My mother-in-law treats me very well. Cousin, how did you meet my sister He?"

Su Zhan understood what Yun Xiangye meant by "acquaintance." He said, "Back then, Wan He was chosen as a palace maid and went to Chang'an. I also followed my parents to Luoyang to do business. We sailed north on the same ship and spent two months together on it..."

Although the government offices had already started to report for work on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, it was still not the Lantern Festival. Many government offices in Chang'an City had nothing to do and closed early.

Especially for the Censorate, since it was not a serious matter, there was no need for them to impeach officials during the New Year.

When Gu Yan returned to Qingfeng Garden, he did not see Yunxiangye, but only saw a peacock.

Only then did they know that Yun Xiangye had gone to the Lin Mansion early in the morning and brought back a peacock from Prime Minister Lin's Mansion. However, although the peacock had returned, she and Nuonuo had not yet returned.

Gu Yan waited for half an hour but Yun Xiangye didn't come back, so he asked the guards to look for Yun Xiangye's whereabouts. After a long time, he heard the guards come to report that Yun Xiangye had gone to the Yahang on West Street.

Gu Yan then rode his horse to West Street. As soon as he arrived at West Street, he saw Run'er holding Nuonuo's hand in front of the sugar painting stall, watching the sugar painting master drawing a dragon.

"Nuannuo..."

"Daddy." When little Nuonuo saw Gu Yan getting off his horse, she stepped forward and threw herself into Gu Yan's arms.

Gu Yan picked up Xiao Nuonuo and asked, "Where is your mother?"

"Uncle!" Xiao Nuonuo said with his head tilted.

Gu Yan smiled and touched the soft little face, "Why are you calling me uncle? Call me daddy."

"Mom, uncle." Little Nuonuo said in a baby voice.

Run'er said from the side: "Sir, my daughter and the cousin of the Su family were discussing something in the pawnshop, so Nuonuo mentioned uncle."

Gu Yan's smile froze, "Cousin?"

Run'er nodded and said, "The young master of the Su family is my daughter's cousin."

Gu Yan snorted, enjoying the taste: "She is quite capable. Earlier, Mr. Chu, and now here comes Cousin Su. She even said she came to Chang'an where she is unfamiliar with the place, when it is clear that everyone in Chang'an is her old acquaintance."

Run'er was so angry when she heard what Gu Yan said, but because of her status, she could only curse Gu Yan in her heart.
