Yun Xiangye was listening to her cousin Su talking about the past between him and her cousin in the pharmacy when she noticed some movement outside.

Su Zhan didn't say anything else and said to Yun Xiangye, "Something seems to be happening outside. I'll go check it out."

"Prince Ning... please wait outside for a moment. Our boss is discussing important matters inside. I'll go in and report."

Yun Xiangye heard the voice of the pawnshop attendant coming from outside the door and said to Su Zhan, "Cousin, you don't have to go out to see."

Su Zhan hurriedly said, "It's Prince Ning. Princess Sheng Zhao is a major customer of my dental practice. We cannot neglect Prince Ning."

Before Su Zhan could finish his words, the door was kicked open.

Yun Xiangye frowned slightly when she saw Gu Yan at the door. "Didn't your mother teach you to ask permission before entering someone else's house?"

Su Zhan hurriedly said to Yun Xiangye, "Xiangye, don't be rude. This is Prince Ning's son, Gu Yan."

Su Zhan hurried forward and saluted Gu Yan, saying, "Sir, it's been a long time."

Gu Yan raised an eyebrow and looked at Yun Xiangye who was sitting and drinking tea. "You are actually Su Zhan's cousin?"

Su Zhan looked at Yun Xiangye and then at Gu Yan and said, "Prince Ning knows my cousin?"

Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Would you like to introduce me?"

Yun Xiangye frowned slightly and said, "You trespassed into my cousin's pawn shop and kicked in his door... Is this the upbringing of Prince Ning?"

"Xiangye!" Su Zhan hurriedly bowed to Gu Yan and said, "Prince Ning, my cousin was rude. I apologize to you on her behalf."

"Cousin, he's the one who should apologize." Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan, "Apologize."

Su Zhan frowned slightly and looked at Yun Xiangye. From what he had just talked with Yun Xiangye, he knew that his cousin was a sensible person. How could she dare to be so disrespectful to Prince Ning now?

Gu Yan bowed his head towards Su Zhan and said, "Cousin, I was rude just now. I shouldn't have barged in and kicked the door. I'll ask the carpenter to come and fix the door when I get home."

Su Zhan looked puzzled when he heard Gu Yan calling him cousin.

Yun Xiangye stood up and chuckled, "Cousin, Gu Yan is my husband."

Su Zhan looked at Yun Xiangye in surprise, "Cousin, are you serious?"

Gu Yan walked over and took Yun Xiangye's hand, smiled faintly and said, "Cousin, Xiangye is truly my wife."

Su Zhan looked at Gu Yan carefully. Gu Yan did look somewhat similar to Nuonuo. "This..."

Gu Yan smiled and said, "I didn't know you were Xiangye's cousin before. What a coincidence! It's Nuonuo's seventh birthday party. I hope you can come to the party."

Yun Xiangye also said to Su Zhan, "Yes, cousin, Nuonuo will be two years old on the seventh day of the first lunar month. She has never had a big birthday party, so we'll have a big one this time. I hope you can come and support us."

Su Zhan said hurriedly: "That's for sure."

Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's hand and said to Su Zhan, "It's getting late. We won't bother you any more. We'll take our leave now."

Su Zhan hurriedly said, "Have a nice time, both of you."

When Gu Yan and Yun Xiangye left the pawnshop, Su Zhan was still a little shocked, surprised that his cousin was actually the wife of Prince Ning.

Su Zhan recalled the rumors circulating about Prince Ning's concubine. They all seemed to match up. A girl from a small merchant family...

Gu Yan took Yun Xiangye's hand and walked outside the pharmacy.

When Yun Xiangye got on the carriage, she saw Nuonuo already fast asleep in Run'er's arms.

Yun Xiangye took Nuonuo from Run'er and signaled Gu Yan with her eyes to take off his cloak.

Gu Yan understood what he meant, so he took off his cloak and covered Nuonuo with it, then said to Run'er, "Go outside the carriage."

Run'er must have gone outside the car.

Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan and asked, "Have you known my cousin before?"

Gu Yan said, "Well, some of the medicines in Renyuan Pharmacy are sold to the Western Regions, and some medicines are also imported from there. We need the help of the liaison. Su Zhan has been helping Renyuan Pharmacy sell medicine for almost five years. I didn't expect that you are his cousin."

Yun Xiangye said, "I never thought I would be able to see my cousin in Chang'an City after not seeing him for eight years."

Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye and asked, "Why did you go to Prime Minister Lin's residence today?"

Yun Xiangye said, "I went to embarrass your junior sister."

Gu Yan frowned slightly and looked at Yun Xiangye.

Yun Xiangye also looked back at Gu Yan, who frowned and asked, "Why are you doing this? What are you doing in this pawnshop again?"

Yun Xiangye said, "Buy an embroidery shop."

Gu Yan said, "We have plenty of shops at home, many of which are on Suzaku Street. Why do you still want to buy a shop?"

Yun Xiangye said, "Those shops are not under my name after all."

Gu Yan frowned slightly, "You and I are husband and wife, why are you so clear about the difference?"

Yun Xiangye laughed, "Brothers should settle accounts clearly, let alone husband and wife? When disaster strikes, each of them will flee..."

Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye's sneer and frowned slightly: "Can't you just speak properly?"

Yun Xiangye said, "Husband and wife are birds of the same forest, but when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. This is a famous saying that has been passed down through the ages."

Gu Yan snorted, "What were you and Su Zhan talking about behind closed doors just now?"

Yun Xiangye looked straight at Gu Yan, "What do you mean? Do you want to quarrel with me again?"

Gu Yan said: "You are turning the tables."

Yun Xiangye said, "Isn't this just imitating you?"

Gu Yan said, "How could I be alone with my cousin and a single woman in the same room?"

Yun Xiangye said, "If you feel it's unfair, you can go and stay in the same room with your good cousins, both men and women, and I will definitely not hold it against you."

Gu Yan took a deep breath and said, "Forget it. It's New Year's Day. I won't argue with you."
