Chapter 112: Driving Dad to Guard the Border with the Whole Family
Jiang Yinyue had no impression of the third son of the Bai family. She only knew that he was an adopted child and had a disability in his legs.
She got off the carriage and walked slowly towards the wheelchair, wondering what the other party wanted from her.
After Qingyun brought the person to Xiao Wu, he bowed and turned to watch from a distance.
Jiang Yinyue looked at the person who was being attacked. The other person was dressed in black. From her perspective, there was an indescribable sense of oppression.
"Madam, hello." At this time, Xiao Wu turned around and nodded slightly, "I am the third son of the General's Mansion, Xiao Wu."
Jiang Yinyue nodded. She had just heard Wei Ranzhu mention that Wei Ranzhu had always been concerned about this child. She didn't expect that the child would return home this year.
From what she heard from Wei Ranzhu, it seemed that after adopting Li Suining, the entire general's mansion had changed for the better.
"You...are looking for me..." she asked doubtfully. After all, the two had never had any intersection before.
Xiao Wu twitched the corners of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes. "I came here to ask Madam a few questions..."
He paused before speaking slowly, "Madam, do you already know that Suining is your biological daughter?"
Jiang Yinyue's eyes widened in shock. She obviously didn't expect that someone in the general's mansion already knew about it, and she didn't expect that the other party would ask her in person.
She hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, because she observed the other person's expression and saw that he was not testing her, but looked very confident.
"Then I wonder what the purpose of Madam's visit to the general's mansion is?" Xiao Wu's second question was more pointed.
Jiang Yinyue's expression changed. "Xiao Wu, right? Don't get me wrong. I... I don't want to recognize Aning. I just want to... I want to confirm whether Aning is living well in the general's mansion."
Xiao Wu sneered, "Confirm? What qualifications do you have?"
Jiang Yinyue was speechless again. The Xiao Wu in front of her was completely different from the kind and gentle third son described by Wei Ranzhu. This person... was a little scary.
Xiao Wu continued coldly, "As a mother whose child was abandoned at birth, isn't it too late to care about your child's well-being now?"
"If there hadn't been Li Tianfu and the General's Mansion, Li Suining would have already…" His face was frightening. "Since you chose not to have her back then, don't pretend to care about her now. She doesn't need it."
Jiang Yinyue held back her tears and nodded, "Don't worry, I...I won't go to the General's Mansion again, and I won't disturb Aning's life anymore."
Xiao Wu ignored him, turned his wheelchair around and faced Jiang Yinyue with his back, obviously not wanting to continue the conversation.
"Sorry to bother you." Jiang Yinyue was speechless. She felt ashamed. She turned around, walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped.
Xiao Wu tilted his head slightly and heard the other party whisper, "The Crown Prince's birthday banquet will be held in a few days. I'm afraid Zuo Shanzhang... might make some moves. Remind your father to be careful."
After saying this, Jiang Yinyue quickened his pace and left quickly.
Xiao Wu turned the wheelchair around again, looked at Jiang Yinyue's back from afar, frowning slightly.
"Master!" Qingyun quickly stepped forward and waited for instructions.
Xiao Wu said in a deep voice, "Investigate why Jiang Yinyue went to Tongxiang and why she left her newborn child behind."
"yes!"
——
When Bai Yunfeng came back from his work, the first thing he did was to see Wei Ranzhu and the two children.
"Thank you for your hard work, Madam." He said with a distressed look on his face. "By the way, I heard that the wife of the Prime Minister is here today?"
"Yeah." Wei Ranzhu smiled a little more. "What a surprise. I thought we were together for the rest of our lives... But, I don't know if I'm too sensitive."
"What's wrong?" Bai Yunfeng couldn't hide the smile on his face, as if there was some good news.
Wei Ranzhu didn't want to spoil his fun, so she smiled and shook her head, "Nothing, I just felt...she seemed to like Sui Ning very much."
"Hahaha..." Bai Yunfeng laughed out loud, his face full of pride. "Our Suining is so cute, who wouldn't like her? Even the strictest Master Jiang in Dajin looks at Suining differently. His daughter likes Suining too. It's normal."
"That's right." Wei Ranzhu couldn't help but ask again, "By the way, have you met the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion? What's his personality like?"
Bai Yunfeng's expression changed. "You know where I've seen him before. He didn't invite me to his banquet. But why are you asking this?"
"I always feel..." Wei Ranzhu's eyes showed a bit of heartache, "Yue'er doesn't seem to like this son, I can't explain it."
"Okay, don't worry about these things." Bai Yunfeng stepped forward and took out an invitation from behind. "Let's see who sent it."
"You look so happy," Wei Ranzhu took it and looked at it, obviously a little surprised. "Is it the Eastern Palace? The Crown Prince is having a birthday?"
"Yes!" Bai Yunfeng's face was filled with pride. "You know, for the Crown Prince's birthday, he used to only invite a few civil officials like Elder Jiang and Zuo Shanzhang. This is the first time that a rough guy like me has been asked to go..."
Wei Ranzhu was obviously happy too. This showed that the status of the General's Mansion had risen. "It's a good thing. After all, the boss is in the Eastern Palace now. It's only natural that the Crown Prince would pay attention to us."
"That's not all," Bai Yunfeng said with such pride that he seemed to be flying. "Not only did he invite me to the prince's birthday party, he also invited Sui Ning."
"Really?" This time, Wei Ranzhu was really surprised.
Bai Yunfeng nodded repeatedly, "Is this true? The eunuch who delivered the invitation specifically told me that the Crown Prince had seen Sui Ning and liked her, so he allowed me to bring her along to the birthday party."
Wei Ranzhu quickly checked the date. "Oh, there are only three days left. I have to make you two new clothes and some jewelry for Sui Ning."
"Do it, do it, do more. Suining has grown up. After all, she is the eldest daughter of our general's mansion. It's time for her to wear more jewelry." Bai Yunfeng was obviously excited.
Wei Ranzhu smiled and shook his head. After all, little Tuanzi was only four years old this year. How many jewelry could she wear?
But it doesn’t matter, it’s better to get some in advance and save them for the little one.
In the courtyard, Xiao Wu, listening to all this, looked increasingly worried. It seemed Jiang Yinyue was right. Zuo Shanzhang was planning to use the Crown Prince's birthday party to stir up trouble. But what exactly was it? What kind of disaster would Little Tuanzi cause at the birthday party?
He didn't dare to delay and hurried to find Li Suining and told her that starting from tonight, she should pay more attention to the prince's birthday party and see what happened at the birthday party.
That night, Li Suining indeed saw something unusual. She trembled and told Xiao Wu, "Third brother, the uncle in the yellow clothes in the middle is very angry. He started arguing with the crown prince and...he even wanted to force Dad to take the whole family to guard the border."
