"Madam, could you give me some time?" Su Gele asked tentatively. Actually, he didn't hold out much hope, as he knew that Madam Xie was always ruthless.
Unexpectedly, Xie Wanyun nodded in agreement. "Okay, let's try to find a solution. I'll go discuss it with the buyer."
Xie Wanyun herself didn't notice that in recent days, because of Jin Bai and the little beggars, her heart had been softening and warming little by little.
After leaving the Western Region Guild Hall, Xie Wanyun sent a servant to deliver a letter to Yan Suizhi, inviting him to meet at Yunjianfang.
Yan Sui came straight over after attending court. As soon as he entered, he took off his outer cloak, revealing his bright red official uniform.
The bright red color added some color to his snow-white face.
She is so beautiful that she looks like she walked out of a painting.
Xie Wanyun had met him many times and was still amazed by him.
He immediately suppressed his strange expression and said calmly, "Lord Yan really arrived quickly."
Yan Suizhi smiled and said, "Madam, how dare I neglect you when you invite me."
The expression on Xie Wanyun's face relaxed involuntarily, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Yan Suizhi was used to being on edge with her, so it was rare to see her so friendly, and he couldn't help but feel in a good mood.
Xie Wanyun then repeated Su Ge'er's words and said, "Is this shipment urgently needed? Can you discuss with Minister Liu about delaying delivery? It's true that the weather is too cold, with the snow piled high. These Western Region merchants are honest and aren't deliberately delaying."
Yan Suizhi nodded. "Of course I believe you, but Minister Liu is a difficult person to talk to. I need to think about how to deal with him..."
Xie Wanyun couldn't help but be moved when she heard him say this. He actually believed her without hesitation.
Unconsciously, her eyes became softer and softer.
Yan Suizhi stared at her blankly. Xie Wanyun was still dressed in plain clothes, with almost no makeup on, yet she exuded a kind of aloof holiness. Like a plum blossom in the snow, a snow lotus on an iceberg. Proud and cold, she was to be admired from afar but not to be touched.
Xie Wanyun felt a little uncomfortable when she saw his strange expression.
Yan Suizhi suddenly said, "Jin Bai is just messing around and causing you trouble. If you're having trouble with those little beggars, let me handle it."
Xie Wanyun felt a little uneasy, raised his eyes and asked, "How are you going to deal with this?"
Are you trying to drive them out of Shangjing City? Yan Suizhi, back then, you were one of them. If not... you would have drifted away to who knows where.
Yan Suizhi seemed to have read her thoughts and said hurriedly, "Madam Xie, what are you thinking about? When I saw them, I remembered the past. If it weren't for your kindness and the Duke's taking me in, I wouldn't be where I am today. I just want to find a place to put them."
"Oh." Xie Wanyun felt relieved.
"The elderly are well cared for, and the young are well cared for. This is something the imperial court should be concerned about, but you, a woman, have done it. This is truly shameful for Suizhi."
Xie Wanyun waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's nothing, just think of it as me doing a good deed. Speaking of Jin Bai, I really like him more and more. He's smart and kind. At such a young age, he has such great love in his heart. He will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Yan Suizhi quickly lowered his head, not wanting Xie Wanyun to see the excitement in his eyes. However, his slightly trembling fingers still revealed his abnormality.
"Master Yan, what's wrong with you?" Xie Wanyun asked curiously. Being praised for your child made you so excited? This didn't seem like Yan Suizhi's style.
Yan Suizhi raised his slender fingers and rubbed the corners of his eyes, hiding the bright red at the end of his eyes.
His voice was a little hoarse. "Thank you for the compliment, Madam. This child is a bit naughty and often makes his own decisions, which is a headache for me."
Xie Wanyun wanted to laugh when she thought of Jin Bai's clever little eyes.
The two said goodbye and went home. As Xie Wanyun entered the mansion, a servant came up to her and reported, "Madam, Brother Quan and those little beggars are quarreling again. Please go and take a look."
"Oh, do you know what it is about?" Xie Wanyun was a little surprised. Quan Ge'er obviously accepted these children, so why did they have another conflict?
