Grandma Tian was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and then she wanted to scold Sisi. However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she noticed that Sisi's eyes had changed. They had become both sharp and intimidating.

Old Madam Tian couldn't help but shudder.

Sisi stared at Old Madam Tian for a while before looking away. "You're silly. Don't think others are silly too. If your brother were as good as you say, would you have skipped over my great-grandmother and my third grandmother to come looking for a little kid like me?"

Sisi's aunt is from the third branch of the family.

Old Madam Tian wanted to argue, but... but she didn't dare. Old Madam Tian had always believed that the bandits had come to Sisi's aid because of Lao Hei.

Sisi took a sip of tea. "I'll let it slide for General Tian's sake, but if there's a next time, I won't be so polite to you."

After saying that, Sisi left.

Madam Tian was angry, scared, and regretful all at once. Seeing Sisi leave, she wanted to regain some face, so she said to the old woman behind her, "That little girl is truly awful; she has absolutely no manners."

bump!

As soon as she finished speaking, a tile fell from the roof and smashed the teacup in front of Madam Tian.

Old Madam Tian was so frightened that she forgot to call out.

The old woman behind her was also quite frightened. "Madam... we've been out for a while, let's go back."

"Go back...go back...go back..." Old Madam Tian kept talking but didn't move.

The old woman thought for a moment, then first put the broken pieces on the table under the table, and then called in the maids who were waiting outside. "The old lady is tired from walking, please help her up."

"Yes." The maids thought that Madam Tian was just putting on airs. Unexpectedly, when they gently helped Madam Tian up twice, she still didn't get up.

The maids were a little confused.

The old woman glared at the maids.

The maids hesitated for a moment, then used some force to lift Old Madam Tian from the chair.

Seeing that they had helped Old Madam Tian up, the old woman quickly said, "Let's go."

Madam Tian was chatting with her maids when an old woman came in. "Madam, the old lady has returned."

Madam Tian knew something was wrong as soon as she heard it, otherwise Ding's mother wouldn't have come to tell her. "You may all leave."

"yes."

After the maids left, Madam Tian looked at Mama Ding and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Ding said softly, "The old lady was helped off the carriage by the maids."

shelf?!

Madam Tian's first thought was that Old Madam Tian was ill. But then she realized that wasn't quite right. If her mother-in-law were sick, she would definitely be asked to take care of her. "Go ask the coachman where Old Madam Tian went today?"

"yes."

A moment later, Ding's mother returned. "Madam, I've found out that the old lady went to have tea with Miss Yun."

"..." Madam Tian remembered that day when she told her mother-in-law that the Yun family was unwilling to marry Yun Qingmei to her uncle. Her mother-in-law asked her if she had said that Old Master Yun sometimes had to listen to Xiao Liu.

She immediately sensed that something was wrong.

It seems that her mother-in-law has definitely been dealt with by Xiao Liu.

Her mother-in-law is really senile. If Xiao Liu were as easy to fool as an ordinary child, would Grandpa Yun listen to Xiao Liu?

Madam Tian looked at Ding's mother and said, "Do you think the old lady will send someone to fetch a doctor? If she does, then come and tell me. If she doesn't, then pretend you don't know anything."

"yes."

After Ding's mother left, Madam Tian thought to herself, "Let's see if you dare to covet that other woman's sister-in-law again." Then she started thinking about how to tell Feng Chan that she wanted Yun Xiangqing to be her daughter-in-law.

Yun Xiangqing is both Yun Yuxuan's eldest daughter and Sisi's cousin. However, there are differences between cousins.

Old Madam Tian wanted to take some medicine to calm her nerves, but... but she was afraid others would laugh at her. Old Madam Tian had nightmares for five or six days in a row.

Every time Madam Tian came to pay her respects to Old Madam Tian, ​​she would ask if Old Madam Tian still wanted Xiao Liu's eighth cousin to be her younger brother's wife.

Here, Madam Tian visits Old Madam Tian every day to check on her dark circles.

On the other side, Sun Wanjing was hoping every day that Yun Yuqi would send someone to pick up her and her two children.

After much anticipation, Sun Dazhi finally returned.

Before Sun Dazhi could even report to Lord Sun, Sun Wanjing arrived. "Uncle Sun, you're back? When is Yuqi coming to pick us up?"

Sun Dazhi didn't know what to say. "Greetings, Miss. The situation at the border is very tense. The Third Young Master... the Third Young Master is out fighting every day."

“I know, I’m not afraid. I told him all that in the letter.”

It's no use saying anything; he's not the same person he used to be. "Miss, the Third Young Master asked me to tell the Master something important. This old servant will go find the Master now."

After saying that, Sun Dazhi tried to leave.

Sun Wanjing wouldn't let him leave. "When is he coming to pick up the three of us?"

Sun Dazhi wanted to say that he now had a new mother and three children, but after saying it, he didn't know how to end the conversation.

Just as Sun Dazhi was worrying, his personal attendant arrived. "Greetings, Miss. Master has asked Steward Sun to come over."

Since Lord Sun has come to demand his release, Sun Wanqing can't stop Sun Dazhi from leaving. "Go."

Lord Sun's attendant led Sun Dazhi directly to Lord Sun's study. Lord Sun could tell from Sun Dazhi's expression that things hadn't gone well. "You're back? Did you see Yuqi?"

"I saw him. The Third Young Master... he's changed a lot. The Third Young Master is now... now a proper military officer." Military officers are usually quite decisive in their actions.

Lord Sun understood. "He refused outright?"

“No.” Sun Dazhi took out the letter that Sun Wanjing had written to Yun Yuqi. “No one is allowed to enter or leave Ningyuan City at will. This old servant told the guard that he was looking for the Third Young Master, and the guard told him to wait outside the city. More than two hours later, the Third Young Master came to pick him up. When he came, he was carrying the son that Feng Xianzi had given him, and he was also carrying the daughter that Feng Xianzi had given him.”

Lord Sun took the letter. "That woman bore him a son?"

"Yes. That child is not young anymore. I inquired and found out that the child was conceived in the capital."

Lord Sun was very surprised to hear this. "You conceived while you were in the capital?"

"Yes. Also, his daughter is quite formidable." Sun Dazhi told Lord Sun what he had found out. "Master, his daughter is so capable, even if the eldest young lady brings the two young masters back, she won't get away with it. And...and..."

"What else? Tell me!"

"When this old servant returned, the Third Young Master brought his eldest nephew to see him off."

What happened to his eldest nephew?

"The Third Young Master's eldest sister has remarried."

"..."

“Master, the Third Young Master is different from before.”

"I understand. You can go and rest now."

Sun Dazhi also wanted to go and rest. However, "Miss just asked this old servant when the Third Young Master will come to pick them up?"

"Tell her to come find me."

"yes."

A moment later, Sun Wanjing came in. "Father, when is Yuqi coming to pick up the three of us?"

Lord Sun looked at Sun Wanjing and said, "He won't come to take you and your children. He doesn't dare offend his daughter now, and he's forgotten the agreement between you two. You should remarry."

"What?!"
