Chapter 4: Misunderstandings One After Another
Dong Xiao was arrested and then released.
Release him and provide food for the person who ordered his arrest.
But the prince looked a little strange today.
I don't know why he smiles so cheaply.
Su Junyao was in a good mood today, and everyone who served in Jingxin Garden was rewarded handsomely.
Not only did he hold the sweet and soft little girl today, but his wife even offered to let him stay for dinner.
What to eat?
Eat chicken legs!
Jiujiu looked at her father with disdain, what a fool he was. So how on earth did he survive until the end and almost drag the hero and heroine to death with him?
Her mother even invited him to stay for dinner, so why was he being so arrogant?
He actually refused!
If her little Jiujiu hadn't been smart enough to grab his fingers in time and try her best to keep him, believe it or not, he would never come back after stepping out of that door!
Humph. Your wife doesn't want you anymore!
From now on, all you need to do is to kiss my beautiful wife!
Su Junyao's index finger was held tightly by Jiujiu. With the lesson learned from his eldest son, he didn't even dare to struggle.
The brat, who has thick skin, still dislocated his arm. His precious daughter is so tiny that he would be heartbroken if she got a little skin broken.
Let her do what she wants, it’s a good opportunity for me to be close to my wife.
Yun Jinglan was also busy. While the father and daughter were busy interacting, she was also busy sorting out the events of the day. As she was thinking about these things, she noticed traces of women's perfume under Su Junyao's carefully groomed hair.
She reached out and wiped it, wanting to see if he would dare to come to her after being stained with that bitch's perfume powder, but who knew that her eyes would meet that bruise.
Su Junyao was caught off guard and felt a pain in his forehead. When he saw a hint of white on Yun Jinglan's fingertips, he was stunned.
Yun Jinglan herself was stunned. Her husband, who usually looked as bright and handsome as the cold moon in the sky, actually had a black eye on his forehead and stood there in a daze with a silly look on his face. She was really disillusioned!
He couldn't have hit his head and had to use powder to cover it up, which made him smell like rouge.
Chirp twitched its nose like a little animal and let out a strange giggle: "Xiangxiang, put some on for me!"
Yun Jinglan readily followed suit and placed the fine white dot on Jiujiu's nose with her fingertips. Seeing that she was satisfied, she wiped it off.
He is quite conceited at such a young age!
[Father, seize the opportunity and quickly invite the perfumer you hired for Mother.]
Jiujiu was babbling so anxiously that she could almost speak. Why was her father like a piece of wood?
Su Junyao said quickly, "I asked Chen He to find you a perfumer from the Western Regions, but he's a foreigner and can't come into the mansion. I've tried it for you, and it's definitely the only one of its kind in the capital!"
Yes, yes, yes, he was testing perfume for his wife, he definitely didn’t apply perfume powder himself!
Manliness still exists, still exists!
The prince, who was already extremely embarrassed, didn't even think about whether there was anything wrong with men trying perfume.
Yun Jinglan was puzzled. Was this a perfumer specially found for her? Then why had she already smelled it on Zheng?
She felt depressed and asked directly, "Isn't this the perfume powder you prepared for Zheng?"
But Zheng said in front of her that this was specially prepared by someone who spent a lot of money!
Su Junyao immediately exploded: "What does this have to do with the Zheng family? This woman is so shameless. Last time, she even used my mother's name to ask Master Chan for the ointment."
That ointment is worth a fortune, and she actually wants to get something for nothing!
He snorted coldly, and inexplicably became proud. "What cousin? She wants such a rare thing from me just by saying a few nice words. I told Chen He to kick her out on the spot."
As for why Zheng wore perfume on her body, he really didn't know.
Yun Jinglan didn't say anything, her eyes were full of resentment, and she was wondering how much truth Su Junyao's words were.
"Mom, believe him. My father hasn't had it easy either. He hasn't saved a single penny of his own money over the years. When my older brother had that accident, he even broke his head trying to raise money to save him."
[And he even crawled between their legs like a big dog!]
Yun Jinglan: "???" Something happened to the boss?!
Su Junyao: "!!!" Who crawled between someone's legs?!
Jiujiu didn't know that her mind had been read. She shook her head and lamented her unlucky family.
Ugh, this is so worrying.
[The bad guy is about to poison me, and then Mommy will die too. How can a baby survive without milk?]
This is a survival challenge of hell level!
Yun Jinglan had someone bring over a bowl of milk and slowly fed it to the cub that was still worried about its food supply, its mind filled with thoughts of the possibility of dying.
The eldest son is training with his father at the border. As long as her family is still alive, they would never let anything happen to him. Does this mean her family...?
She dared not think any further. She would ask Qiuyue to send a message home later, telling her to be extremely careful!
Su Junyao's handsome face darkened as he sat beside Yun Jinglan and Qiuqiu's bed, radiating a chilling aura.
He hadn't even recovered from the shock of his own noble son having to crawl... crawl between someone's legs when he heard that someone was trying to poison his precious wife and daughter!
This is intolerable! I want to kill someone!
Su Junyao: "Chen He, get in here!"
Chen He was still apologizing to Miss Dongxiao when suddenly a roar came from the inner room. He felt a chill run down his spine. Judging from the noise, could it be that he had started arguing with his wife again?
He was truly exasperated with his grandfather. At his age, he was still causing trouble all the time. It was no big deal for him to bow his head and apologize to his wife, but he acted like a fighting cock every day!
Chen He entered the room and stood at the door, not daring to look around. He only hoped that the madam would be decisive and drive them both away, so that he would not lose face in Jingxin Garden.
"Idiot, close the door!" Who will compensate him for his big and little babies getting cold?
Chen He closed the door, thinking that since they, master and servant, were about to be kicked out, why bother closing the door? It was too much trouble.
"Take my jade token and go to the palace to invite a doctor to examine the lady and young lady."
"Hey, Dad, just showing it to me won't help, the wet nurse took poison!"
Su Junyao changed his mind: "While you're at it, let's check if anyone in this Jingxin Garden has any problems!"
Chen He felt that his master's words were strange. Could it be that he was indirectly criticizing the people of Jingxinyuan for being mentally unstable?
It's quite strange that his wife didn't argue with him today.
Although Chen He was puzzled, he dared not delay and went to fetch the old imperial physician.
Yun Jinglan did not refuse Su Junyao's kindness. The medical skills of the imperial physicians in the palace were far superior to those of the doctors practicing outside. She could hold a grudge against Su Junyao, but her little chick could not.
The charcoal fire inside was burning brightly, making the room warm. The child, who had little energy, soon drifted off to sleep and didn't wake up until the old doctor with the white beard picked her up.
Seeing the old face approaching, she gently pushed it away with her little hand. "What's wrong? Did someone steal your child?"
Yun Jinglan was both amused and exasperated. "Little Chirp, let Physician Wang take a look at you."
Chirp's ears twitched and it stopped struggling. It even tried to extend its little paws so the old doctor could take its pulse.
Look! Let's give Chuchu a good look!
Holding the baby, Imperial Physician Wang sighed inwardly at how well the Wenyang Marquis's household nurtured its children; the baby, only a few days old, was already so robust. Princess Funing, on the other hand, was half a month older than Qiuqiu, yet she looked as skinny as a monkey.
The old doctor chuckled and placed his hand on the delicate, lotus-root-like arm, but his expression changed in an instant.
Physician Wang's expression was solemn. He sat up for a while before withdrawing his hand. He stood up and bowed to Yun Jinglan, saying, "I dare to ask if the young master's wife would allow me to examine her pulse."
"Can!"
Before Yun Jinglan could speak, Su Junyao readily agreed, grabbed her hand, draped a handkerchief over it, and handed it to the old physician, saying, "Quickly, take a look at my wife as well."
A doctor with a deadpan expression is usually up to no good!
When Physician Wang took Yun Jinglan's pulse, he frowned and shook his head, scaring Su Junyao into thinking he was about to become a widower, before slowly saying, "It's alright, Madam and Miss are just poisoned."
Su Junyao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright, it's just...poisoned?!"
"You call yourself okay after being poisoned?!"
