It's almost the end of the year.
Ye Lanyin also got busy.
That day, Ye Lanyin was playing with Lin Wanwan in the yard.
"Mommy, look! I can roll over now!"
Wuhu, a place of beauty, comfort, freedom, and sweetness.
Life that survives is truly precious.
Ye Lanyin's head was buzzing.
How much does her daughter love the human world?
She probably hasn't yet experienced the hardships of life.
However, she wouldn't let her try it.
If Lin Wanwan knew, she would probably give her at least ten "Suffering-Free Talismans".
"Wanwan is so good, she can roll over now."
Ye Lanyin's face was full of doting affection.
"Madam, I saw a strange child at the back door."
"He was acting suspiciously, crouching on the wall of our yard, it seemed..."
"They seem to be looking for something," Hua Xin reported urgently as she entered the courtyard.
Hua Mei asked, "Could it be someone from our Marquis's residence?"
After all, the master has mistresses outside, and who knows how many children he has outside.
Ye Lanyin understood immediately, "Go, don't make a sound, bring it quietly."
"Yes, madam."
【Oh my, a cute guy is here to keep me company!】
[Wuhu, whoosh whoosh whoosh...]
Ye Lanyin: ...Can you cover your ears?
A short while later, Hua Xinhe arrived with a child dressed in light blue clothes.
"Let me go!"
Ye Lanyin sat in the chair and looked up.
The little boy was about eight or nine years old, with clear, bright eyes that held a hint of sadness.
It seemed to strike right at the heart, yet it also evoked pity.
It reminded her of the child she had switched at birth.
"Paint your heart, let him go."
"But Madam..."
“He is not,” Ye Lanyin said firmly.
"yes."
The boy stared coldly at Ye Lanyin.
His first visit to the Zhenbei Marquis's residence was to find the little girl from that day, but he was mistaken for a thief.
Ben had prepared for a heated interrogation, but the outcome was far beyond his expectations.
The noblewoman before him did not display the hostility he expected. On the contrary, she was very friendly, and although the years had left their mark on her face, they could not hide her stunning beauty from her youth.
"Why are you here?" she asked gently.
"I...I accidentally went to the wrong place."
Ye Lanyin remembered that Hua Xin said he was standing on the wall looking left and right, which meant he was either looking for someone or hiding from someone.
"Do you know that lying is wrong?"
The little boy's heart skipped a beat. Did she know?
He clenched his fingers, lowered his head, and dared not look into Ye Lanyin's eyes.
He made a mistake; he was wrong.
But he always did it this way, and no one said he was wrong; even the servants in the mansion agreed with him.
“I lied, but you shouldn’t have called me out on it.”
Ye Lanyin chuckled softly after hearing this, "You're lying, why shouldn't I expose you?"
"Don't you know that lying is shameful?"
"You might even lose many true friends because of this. Didn't your parents teach you that?"
The boy blinked and listened blankly.
"My father is busy, I don't have a mother, and the servants in the mansion didn't tell me either."
Ye Lanyin felt a heavy weight in her heart, and a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes.
"You must not lie to anyone in the future."
"I understand." The boy lowered his head.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Xiao Chengyun."
【Eeee, it's Chengyun-gege.】
[Mother, Mother, let me see him!]
Upon hearing the thought, Xiao Chengyun suddenly came to his senses.
Could this be... the mistress of a noble family?
He just arrived to see that little girl. Chang'an is the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, and she is Chang'an's younger sister.
Isn't that the lady in front of me?
But why are there so few people in the courtyard?
He craned his neck to look at the child in Ye Lanyin's arms.
Her small, chubby face was biting her fingers hard.
Sensing the little boy's gaze, Ye Lanyin smiled and looked at him, "You like her?"
Xiao Chengyun nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "I like it."
"Come here, let me hold you." Ye Lanyin smiled and took the child into his arms.
Xiao Chengyun carefully took Lin Wanwan in his arms, a slight smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips.
Lin Wanwan giggled as she looked at Xiao Chengyun, her mouth watering.
[My brother is handsome.]
[Brother, brother.]
Xiao Chengyun returned the child to Ye Lanyin, then reached out and gently patted Lin Wanwan's head.
"Grow up quickly, and when you grow up I will take you to the palace."
"My royal uncle is really amazing."
Ye Lanyin asked in surprise, "Are you a prince?"
Xiao Chengyun shook his head. "No."
Ye Lanyin took it as Xiao Chengyun trying to make Lin Wanwan happy, and then asked Huaxin to prepare some food for the children so that he could take it with him.
"Yun-ge'er, you've been out for a long time. Your father will be worried. I'll send someone to take you back. Where will you stay?"
“Madam, there’s no need to trouble yourself. I ran away from home. If my father finds out, he’ll break my legs.”
Then, Xiao Chengyun bowed deeply to Ye Lanyin.
"Thank you for not disliking me, Madam. Your kindness is surely blessed by Heaven."
"Don't they like you normally?" Ye Lanyin frowned.
Xiao Chengyun nodded:
"Yes, many people laugh at me behind my back for not being able to smile."
"They think I'm not likable."
For some reason, Ye Lanyin felt a dull ache in her heart, and she shook her head bitterly.
