Zeng Kerou squeezed Yan Funing's hand with her backhand and said, "Sister, you're really good at comforting me." She looked around and said, "I'm sorry for making everyone worry. Let's eat quickly."
Hong Qingyi smiled gently: "You are the one that our family focuses on. As long as you are in a good mood, our whole family will be in a good mood as well."
"Thank you, mother." Zeng Kerou nodded.
Hong Qingyi added, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. They're both my and your father's precious grandchildren."
The second wife is scheming and she even reveals it openly, which is really disgusting.
Yan Cheng also said, "That's right. Look at Yingying and Funing. Which daughter is no worse than the son?"
"All good, all good." Yan Bojian said, "I'm hungry, so let's eat."
Everyone laughed and was about to pick up their chopsticks.
The sounds of dogs barking and geese cawing were heard, and the old Duke walked slowly towards them with his hands behind his back.
"Girl, why didn't you come and call me?"
"You don't even take me seriously, do you?"
"They say daughters are just as good as sons. But I say neither is good. I have three sons and one daughter, and when it's almost dinner time, no one calls me to eat."
"Especially you, Yan Cheng. You've already become a grandfather, and now you're about to become a grandfather, and you've already forgotten your father?"
He spoke a lot in a fluent manner, but stopped at the door of the dining room.
Tenglong and Xiaohu stood on his left and right, with no intention of entering the dining room, nor any intention of strolling around elsewhere.
Everyone stood up.
Yan Cheng went straight out of the dining room to greet him: "Father, don't you think you did this on purpose?"
Normally everyone lived and ate in separate gardens, but today they were actually angry.
The old Duke snorted and showed no intention of moving at all.
Yan Cheng turned his gaze towards Yan Xinghe and Yan Bojian, signaling them to carry their grandfather inside.
The old Duke saw their intention and shouted, "Don't hold me up."
Finally, Yan Funing came over with a smile, took her grandfather's arm affectionately, and said coquettishly: "Good grandfather, good grandpa, you must be hungry, why don't you fill your stomach first before you get angry? When your granddaughter comes back, I will notify you first. I dare not make you angry again!"
The old Duke touched her head and said, "That's more than enough." He laughed loudly and said, "Hurry up and give me some more bowls and chopsticks. I'm hungry."
Hong Qingyi quickly ordered the servants to add more chairs and bowls and chopsticks.
Soon, everyone finally started to eat, chatting and laughing in a warm and warm atmosphere.
The old Duke was also in the mood to order his servants to take care of his Tenglong Xiaohu.
"Grandfather, are you back from playing outside?" Yan Funing asked.
Yan Cheng quickly asked, "How can this child even say the word 'play'?"
"Hmph, I was going out to play anyway." The old Duke looked at Yan Funing gently, "Girl, what do you want to say?"
Yan Funing chuckled, "The temperature is a little lower today. Although it's not snowing, there will definitely be severe frost tomorrow. I think it's better for Grandpa not to go out tomorrow and just stay home and warm himself by the fire."
The old Duke said, "It's not that I want to go out and have fun, but Tenglong Xiaohu can't stop me. If you can convince Tenglong Xiaohu not to go out, I, your grandfather, will stay at home."
"Okay." Yan Funing stood up and went outside the dining room. She patted the goose's head and then the dog's head. "If you go out again tomorrow, I'll stew you!"
Everyone in the dining room: "..."
She is a delicate and soft person, but her words are cruel and ruthless.
Yan Bojian laughed and said, "I used to think my younger sister and older sister looked nothing alike, but now I hear they are very similar!"
The corners of the old Duke's lips twitched.
How could it be that the dog and the goose wanted to go out? It was clearly him who wanted to go out, and the saying of soaring dragons and roaring tigers was just an excuse.
This little girl is really cunning.
The words were spoken to Tenglong Xiaohu, and the intention behind them was to intimidate him, his grandfather.
Tenglong Xiaohu seemed to understand and kept silent.
Yan Funing returned to the dining table with a smile.
The old Duke pointed at her forehead lovingly and said, "Stinky girl."
"Grandfather, we'll have barbecue at noon tomorrow." Yan Funing smiled harmlessly.
"Okay! Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you had told me earlier, I would have agreed not to go out."
Everyone laughed.

Yan family, Xiyuan, second room.
Yan Yan'er finished her dinner early in her room alone.
Looking at the new yard under the night sky, she was very satisfied.
She was happy and at ease, not having to pay her respects to the Fourth Young Master's wife. Thinking of this, her hand touched her belly again.
It’s better to have a good stomach.
A maid came over with the palace doctor: "Miss Yan'er, the Second Madam said that since you just returned to the palace today, you should take my pulse."
"Okay." Yan Yan'er walked slowly into the house.
The old woman followed in with the court doctor.
In just a moment, the court doctor took Yan Yan'er's pulse and said, "Miss Yan'er, the pregnancy is stable. Just rest well."
Yan Yan'er nodded and ordered the maid to give the court doctor a silver ingot.
The court doctor was overjoyed to receive the silver and happily took his leave.
As soon as he left the yard, he was stopped by the fourth young master's wife.
"Is she really pregnant with a boy?"
"Replying to the Fourth Young Master's wife, Miss Yan'er's pulse is strong and powerful, which is indeed a sign of a boy." The court doctor bowed and replied.
"Back off."
The fourth young master's wife waved her hand and went into Yan Yan'er's yard.
Yan Yan'er was talking to the old woman. When she saw the newcomer, she was a little surprised: "Why are you here?"
"If you don't come to me, I will come to you and look at your belly."
The fourth young master's wife sat directly opposite Yan Yan'er.
"Are you envious of my pregnancy and annoyed that yours hasn't moved yet?" Yan Yan'er sneered.
"Don't be too happy too soon. It's still a question whether the baby in your belly can be born."
The fourth young master's wife slammed the table, stood up, and left immediately in anger.
When she returned to her room, she saw her husband Yan Jun molesting her maid, and she became even more angry.
"You've already cheated on me before, and now you're actually putting your hands on my maid?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed towards Yan Jun and hit him in the face.
Despite the huge difference in strength between men and women, Yan Jun pushed his wife to the ground in one go. However, the woman's nails were long, and he himself didn't suffer any harm, with several claw marks on his face.
Yan Jun felt his face hurt, got angry, and left with a flick of his sleeves.
The fourth young master's wife fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
The maid came to help her, but she slapped her instead.
"Bitch, you seduced my husband!"
The maidservant felt extremely aggrieved and cried, "Fourth Young Master's Madam, Miss, I have been by your side since I was a child. How could I possibly do something to let you down?"
The Fourth Young Master's wife snorted, "It's all Yan Yan'er's fault!"
The maid lowered her eyes, hiding the hatred in them, and gently helped her master up.
--
It's late at night and everyone is asleep.
After dinner, Yan Funing talked a lot with her family, and it was not until late at night that she and Fu Ciyi returned to her boudoir in the Yan family.
The bedding in the room had been changed to thicker ones, and snacks, incense and hot water were all prepared.
Fu Ciyi looked around and said, "The bed is a little small, but it's cozy."
She glared at him and said, "This is the bed I sleep in alone. If you dislike it, go sleep in the side room."
