"Hua Xin, is the cloth bag I asked you to bring still here?"
"Yes, madam."
"Leave it to the old lady."
The old lady took the things from Huaxin's hands and hurriedly took them out.
"Books?" When she was a woman, although she wasn't well-read, she had read books for a few years.
"Mother, open it and take a look."
The old lady then opened the book and looked at its contents.
As her gaze fell upon the contents and characters in the book, her pupils gradually dilated, her eyes shifting from shock to disbelief, and then... turning red.
“This thing…” Her lips trembled as she spoke.
“A few days ago, I had someone make ginseng soup and send it to Ming-ge’er, but the servant said he had gone out. Before leaving, I saw the book on the table and glanced at it.”
Fortunately, she heard about this from her daughter's heartfelt words.
Ye Lanyin held Lin Wanwan and tried to take her milk bottle away, but the little one held on tightly with her little hands.
[What Dad touched...]
Don't take it...
Ye Lanyin was helpless.
"Does Mother still think Lanyin did something wrong?"
The old lady sat in the chair, too ashamed to speak.
How could this happen? Her precious grandson was secretly reading the Minions book.
Her grandson, whom she was so proud of, the one on whom she placed high hopes that he would become a general.
"He's still young, there's still time to change things," Ye Lanyin said, offering a few more words of comfort.

Lin Shiming, his face streaked with tears, ran out from behind the screen and knelt down in front of Ye Lanyin.
“Mother, I was wrong, please punish me.” Lin Shiming wept bitterly, “I didn’t know you were so kind, it’s all my fault.”
"Get up." Ye Lanyin reached out a hand and helped Lin Shiming up.
When the old lady saw Lin Shixuan run out, she stood up guiltily. "You knew he was inside?"
"Hmm, how could I not know about the child I 'gave birth to'?"
“Ming’er usually has a sore throat and occasionally coughs.”
"Waaaaah."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shiming cried even louder, clutching his robes tightly with both hands and bowing his head in remorse.
When the old lady heard him crying like that, she stepped forward and hugged Lin Shiming tightly, saying, "Good boy, don't cry."
"Shiming, where did you get this book?" The old lady couldn't bring herself to get angry and asked gently.
"Waaah, Grandmother, I'll never do it again." Lin Shiming was too embarrassed to admit that he had stolen the goods.
"Ming-ge'er, do you think this punishment is too harsh?" Ye Lanyin stood up while holding Lin Wanwan.
"No, Mother is right to punish me. I will go back and kneel down now."
