Yun Xiangye sighed slightly and said, "Cousin Shi An is a rare good man among you cousins."
Gu Yan frowned slightly when he heard Yun Xiangye's words and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
Yun Xiangye didn't want to bring up the past with Gu Yan, but she always remembered how he treated her when she first came to Chang'an.
Gu Yan ate the wontons that Nuonuo had left over and said with a hint of disdain, "This street stall is so dirty. I don't even know what kind of meat they use. Why don't they let the chef at the mansion make the wontons?"
Yun Xiangye was furious: "Yes, the street stalls are dirty, I deliberately let your daughter eat dirty food!"
Gu Yan said helplessly: "I just said it casually, why are you angry? Are you a pufferfish?"
Yun Xiangye picked up Xiao Nuonuo, who didn't know what was going on, and turned away.
Gu Yan hurriedly tried to catch up, but was stopped by the vendor. "Sir, you're still in your official uniform, how dare you say my stall is dirty? Look, the meat here is all good quality meat bought at Caishikou this morning, and the dough is all freshly rolled. How dare you slander me like this?"
Gu Yan motioned Qing Ming behind him to take out the silver, gave the vendor two taels of silver and said, "I was wrong. This is the silver as compensation for you."
The peddler took the silver and let Gu Yan go.
Gu Yan hurriedly caught up with Yun Xiangye and said, "You really are a quick-tempered person. I just thought these street vendors were dirty, and I didn't say anything. Why are you so angry?"
Yun Xiangye stopped and looked at Gu Yan. "I've been eating wontons from these street vendors since I was a kid, and I never got sick from them. Nuonuo is my sweetheart, so how could I possibly not feed her properly?"
Gu Yan said: "I was wrong."
Yun Xiangye said, "You're right. You're the high and mighty Prince of Ning, so naturally you look down on these street vendors selling wontons.
But for me, when I was little, I always salivated when I heard the sound of wonton vendors in school. As soon as the teacher left school, we would go to the vendors to eat a bowl of steaming wontons. I ate it when I was little, so why can't my daughter have it?
Gu Yan said, "Don't be so sarcastic all the time. We've finally had a few days of peace and quiet, and you're going to bring up the word divorce again?"
Yun Xiangye said, "I didn't bring this up. If you think street things are dirty, I also come from the street, so you can think I'm dirty too."
Gu Yan took a deep breath and said, "I didn't mean that at all. You misunderstood me. Why are you so sensitive about your background? I've already said that I never looked down on your background."
Yun Xiangye gave the little Nuonuo in her arms to Gu Yan, and she went to the embroidery workshop with an angry look on her face.
Gu Yan took Xiao Nuonuo and didn't chase after her. With Nuonuo around, he was not afraid that Yun Xiangye would go far away.
Little Nuonuo pouted and looked at Gu Yan and said, "Daddy is bad, Daddy is not good."
Gu Yan frowned slightly and said, "It's obviously your mother who gets angry too easily."
Xiao Nuonuo snorted softly: "Bad daddy."
Gu Yan carried little Nuonuo and went back to the Princess's Mansion first. Yun Xiangye didn't come back until dark. Gu Yan became a little anxious. Nuonuo was in the mansion, so there was no way Yun Xiangye would leave alone, right?
His knees were still aching from being punished to kneel for a night. Gu Yan didn't dare to think that if Yun Xiangye ran away from Chang'an again, his next punishment would not be just kneeling for a night.
Gu Yan rode his horse to the outside of the embroidery workshop. It was brightly lit inside, and Gu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yan hurried inside when he saw two maids trying to stop him. "Who are you? Our embroidery workshop hasn't opened yet, and this backyard is a restricted area, no one is allowed in."
Gu Yan said: "I am the husband of your boss."
The two maids took a look at Gu Yan's clothes and finally stopped trying to stop him.
Gu Yan went into the three-story courtyard inside the embroidery workshop. There were many embroidery tables placed in the main hall of the three-story courtyard.
Walking further in, there is a small courtyard with lights on. There is a shadow of a person reflected on the window.
As soon as Gu Yan entered, he saw Yun Xiangye embroidering purple peonies inside. The peonies she embroidered were extremely graceful and luxurious.
Gu Yan frowned and said, "It's just one sentence. I've apologized. Do you really have to stay away from home?"
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes, looked at the sky outside and said, "Is it already so late?"
Gu Yan walked over to Yun Xiangye, snatched the clothes from her hands and said, "You can open an embroidery workshop, but you can't be so busy that you don't care about the time. Do you still need your eyes when you light a lamp to embroider clothes?"
Yun Xiangye took back the clothes and said, "I just forgot the time. Has Nuonuo looked for me?"
Gu Yan said: "No."
Yun Xiangye continued embroidering the clothes, "That's fine, this one is almost done, it will only take another hour."
Gu Yan frowned slightly and said, "I'll embroider it tomorrow."
Yun Xiangye said slowly, "February 19th is the opening day of the embroidery workshop. I have to embroider a few more dresses before the opening. Besides, this dress is for Fu Qianran. She will be entering the palace soon. Except for the Flower Festival, she will not go out again. I want to finish the embroidery before the Flower Festival."
Gu Yan said: "There is still a lot of time before the Flower Festival, let's embroider it tomorrow."
Yun Xiangye glanced at the sky outside and said, "Nuonuo is almost asleep now, and I have nothing to do, so I just have to finish embroidering this one right away."
Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye's wrist and said, "It's time to go back. It's getting late and there's a curfew."
Yun Xiangye looked up at Gu Yan and said, "You go back first. If there's a curfew, I'll sleep here. Luckily, I had someone install a room here."
