In an inconspicuous corner of the backyard, a small wooden four-cornered pavilion stood among a few clumps of flowers and trees that withered in the cold winter. Jiang Yue Niang sat on the pavilion railing, looking at Xiao Wei holding Xiao Bao, and was speechless for a long time.
When Xiaobao saw Xiaowei, he kept talking. He looked at his mother, put his mouth close to Xiaowei's ear and whispered, "Uncle Xiaowei, Xiaobao missed you very much."
Xiao Wei smiled and patted Xiao Bao on the head, saying, "Really?"
"Yes," Xiaobao nodded his little head.
Xiao Wei held Xiao Bao in his arms and looked at Jiang Yue Niang, saying, "Why did you bring me here?"
Jiang Yue Niang looked up at Xiao Wei. Xiao Wei was very calm. She showed no joy or disgust on his face. This made Jiang Yue Niang feel frustrated. She often thought of this young man these days, but he seemed to be just an ordinary person to her and she didn't miss him too much.
Seeing that his mother still didn't speak, Xiao Bao said to Xiao Wei, "Uncle Xiao Wei, my father is here to see me and my mother again."
Xiao Wei's eyes became fierce, but then he calmed down again and asked Jiang Yue Niang, "Are you going back?"
This was different from what Jiang Yueniang had imagined. She thought Xiao Wei would be angry or disdainful of the man who had divorced her. But the young man just asked her calmly, "Are you going back?" "Do you want me to go back?" Jiang Yueniang asked Xiao Wei.
"I won't go back!" Xiaobao shouted, and his little hands hugged Xiaowei's neck tightly.
Xiao Wei walked a few steps closer to Jiang Yuiniang and whispered, "Is my hope important to you?"
Jiang Yueniang took a breath.
Xiao Wei said: "I am just a small guard. I don't care about worldly gossip, but you do."
"I," Jiang Yuiniang was silent for a long time, then looked at Xiao Wei and said, "I am doing this for your own good."
Xiao Wei said, "I said I don't care."
Jiang Yue Niang smiled self-deprecatingly and admitted, "Yes, I am the only one who cares. Gu Wei, I am older than you, an abandoned person, and I have a son. You have a clean family background, are appreciated by the princess and her husband, and have a bright future. How can I harm you?"
Xiao Wei shrugged his shoulders and said, "General Xiao Jiang has been made a marquis. Miss Jiang, are you still worried that no one will ask to marry you in the future?"
Jiang Yueniang stood up from the pavilion railing, looked at Xiao Wei and asked, "Are you blaming me?"
"Matters between men and women are all about mutual affection," Xiao Wei said calmly, "If you don't want to, I won't force you."
Jiang Yue Niang discovered that she actually didn't know Gu Wei.
"Do you want to go back?" Xiao Wei asked.
Jiang Yueniang suddenly said loudly: "I'm not going back."
"Then are you willing to come with me?" Xiao Wei asked.
Jiang Yue Niang was speechless again.
Xiao Wei waited for Jiang Yue Niang for a while, and seeing that Miss Jiang didn't say anything, he smiled and whispered, "It's better not to go back. General Jiang can make you rich for the rest of your life."
"Uncle Xiao Wei," Xiao Bao called Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei kissed Xiao Bao's cheek and said, "Listen to your mother from now on."
Xiaobao nodded and said, "I always listen to my mother."
Xiao Wei squatted down, put Xiao Bao down, and said, "When you grow up, you must be filial to your mother."
Xiao Bao nodded. The child seemed to realize something. He turned his head to look at Jiang Yue Niang and shouted, "Mom?"
Xiao Wei stood up and said to Jiang Yue Niang, "I will be returning to Fengtian with my princess and her husband soon."
Jiang Yueniang let out an "ah".
Xiao Wei patted Xiao Bao's head again and walked out of the wooden pavilion.
"Gu Wei," Jiang Yue Niang called Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei stopped walking, without looking back, and said, "This is up to you."
Xiao Wei walked out of the wooden pavilion and into the corridor in the backyard, and his figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
"Uncle Xiao Wei is gone," Xiao Bao said to Jiang Yue Niang.
Jiang Yue Niang picked up Xiao Bao and stared in a daze at the corner of the corridor where Xiao Wei disappeared.
Xiao Wei walked to the end of the corridor and bumped head-on into Nanny Wang and her group.
"Where is Miss Jiang?" Nanny Wang asked when she saw Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei looked at the group of people and asked in confusion, "Mammy, are you looking for Miss Jiang too?"
Miss Qian said, "Brother Xiao Wei, aren't we doing this for you?"
With Xiao Wei's brain, thinking about what Miss Qian said, he also knew what these people wanted to do, "Madam, you are worrying too much," Xiao Wei quickly said to Madam Wang, "I'm fine."
Nanny Wang looked at Xiao Wei. The young man seemed to be normal.
Miss Qian asked, "What did you and Jiang Yueniang talk about?"
Xiao Wei looked at the man from Xiaozhuang's house and said, "Nothing to say, I just went to see Xiaobao."
Miss Qian wanted to say something but was stopped by Li Wan and Miss Zhao San pulling her sleeves.
Nanny Wang said, "Have you told Miss Jiang everything you should have said?"
Xiao Wei nodded and said, "Don't worry, Ma'am. I'm not ignorant."
Xiao Wei was not angry, sad, or had any emotions at all, which made Nanny Wang's desire to settle the score with Jiang Yue Niang disappear. Nanny even suspected that Xiao Wei was a person whose thoughts were hard to guess. Could it be that everyone had made a mistake and that he had no feelings for Jiang Yue Niang?
"I'm going back to my room," Xiao Wei said, "Mammy, please don't disturb Miss Jiang. If you offend her, it will bring trouble to the princess and her husband."
After Xiao Wei finished speaking, he left, leaving Nanny Wang and Miss Qian staring at each other in the corridor.
Miss Qian said, "He doesn't look like he's been dumped by a woman. Are we seeing things wrong?"
Nanny Wang discovered that she was not the only one who had such doubts.
Li Wan shook her head, sighed softly, and said, "He has thought everything through, so he can love or not love."
Miss Qian said, "What did you say?"
Li Wan shook her head and turned away.
"Miss Jiang is here," Xiaofeng shouted at this time.
Nanny Wang and the others looked forward and saw Jiang Yue Niang coming over with Xiao Bao in her arms.
"What should we do?" asked Miss Qian.
"Let's go," Nanny Wang turned and left. Xiao Wei didn't care, so what was she busying herself with?
When Jiang Yue Niang saw that Nanny Wang and her gang saw her coming, she turned around and left. She stayed where she was and waited for a while before continuing to walk forward while holding Xiao Bao in her arms.
Xiao Bao said, "Mother, what happened between you and Uncle Xiao Wei?"
Jiang Yue Niang said: "Children should not ask about adult matters."
Xiaobao pouted, looking unhappy, rested his chin on Jiang Yue Niang's shoulder and stopped talking.
Yu Xiaoxiao asked in the room at this time: "Xiao Jiang, what do you think about your sister and Xiao Wei?"
Jiang Zhuojun looked up at Yu Xiaoxiao.
Yu Xiao: "What does your sister mean to Xiao Wei?"
"Princess," Gu Xinglang shook his head at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "There is nothing going on between Miss Jiang and Xiao Wei. Don't joke about this kind of thing."
Seeing Jiang Zhuojun lower his head again, Yu Xiaoxiao waved her hand in front of Jiang Zhuojun and said, "Does your sister not like Xiao Wei?"
