Yun Xiangye didn't respond, but she also agreed. After all, she was very sleepy and didn't have the energy to make a fuss with Gu Yan anymore.
It was already late in the morning when Yun Xiangye woke up. As soon as she woke up, she heard the noises of two children running around in the yard.
Yun Xiangye got up and saw Nuonuo and Jingru playing happily in the yard. She also got up to wash and put on makeup. Looking in the bronze mirror, she saw some bloodstains at the corners of her lips. She wiped the bloodstains and thought that Gu Yan was seriously injured yesterday.

In the East Palace.
Zhao Rui looked at the scar on Gu Yan's lip and teased him with a smile, "Cousin, you're always injured after returning to Chang'an. Were you bullied even more miserably by your sister-in-law in Jiangnan?"
Gu Yan said: "She was so gentle when she was in Jiangnan..."
Gu Yan was halfway through his words when he glared at Zhao Rui: "What did you say?"
Zhao Rui laughed heartily, and Xie Shian beside him also chuckled softly.
Seeing his two cousins mocking him, Gu Yan sneered, "Beating is love, scolding is affection. You're so old, you haven't even held a woman's hand, how could you possibly understand?"
Zhao Rui said, "Huh? Who said I've never held a woman's hand? I've embraced countless beauties, but it seems like cousin Shi An has never even held a woman's hand."
Zhao Yun, who was sitting at the head of the table, said, "Shi'an, you are only a few months younger than Gu Yan. It's time to put marriage on the agenda."
Xie Shian said, "I've never found a good match, so I'm not in a hurry."
Zhao Rui said, "But I heard that the second wife of the Fu family has been close to my aunt these past two days. If Fu Anran is really good and as beautiful as a fairy, what else could a husband ask for?"
Xie Shian smiled faintly, "If you really feel that you have nothing more to ask for in a husband, I can help you find a matchmaker."
Zhao Rui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really?"
Xie Shian said, "In a few days it will be the second day of the second lunar month. After the morning sacrifice that day, we will have a rest in the afternoon. Then we can invite Jingyu and Junior Sister Lin to go on a boat cruise on the lake. Invite Fu Anran to go on a boat cruise in the middle of the lake in Jingyu's name. You can then meet each other."
Zhao Rui couldn't help but feel a little moved, "Then I will respectfully obey your command."
Gu Yan said: "I'll go too."
Zhao Rui frowned and said, "Fu Anran has proposed marriage to you. Do you think it's appropriate for you to go boating with him?"
Gu Yan said, "Xiangye has been upset with me these past few days. I'll take her to the lake to revisit our first encounter and reminisce about the past. Maybe she'll stop being upset."
Xie Shian smiled and said, "You want to go boating with your sister-in-law to reminisce about your first encounter. Why don't you go boating with us anytime and anywhere?
Could it be that your sister-in-law doesn't want to go boating with you two? So you can only find another excuse to take her boating? "
Gu Yan: “…”
