"Mother-in-law, I'm Yunxi. Young Master Song saved my sister-in-law, but she hasn't woken up yet, so I'm sorry to bother you here." Fu Yunxi greeted her with a smile. This mother-in-law always reminded her of her wet nurse. She didn't know how long it had been since she last saw her.
Seeing Fu Yunxi being so polite, Granny Cai's smile deepened and she held Fu Yunxi's hand tightly, refusing to let go.
Although the side dishes cooked by Grandma Cai were not as good as those in the palace, they were authentic farm dishes and tasted good.
After lunch, Granny Cai did not leave, but instead started chatting about family matters.
"How many people are there in your family?" asked Grandma Cai. Like other matchmakers, if you want to understand a person, you must first understand her parents and siblings.
Fu Yunxi found it very interesting. For example, in the case of a daughter of an official, the matchmaker would tell both sets of parents about the matter, but never directly tell the girl herself.
"My parents are gone. Now I only have my brother and my stepmother who is a Buddhist." Fu Yunxi answered sincerely, and she really explained her current situation clearly.
"What a lovely child." Grandma Cai naturally knew that her stepmother would not be very sincere to the child.
Moreover, Fu Yunxi's family background is not complicated, so if the two children were to be together, both parents would not object.
Caiyun wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it, after all, she had just eaten someone else's meal.
The mouth is soft when eating other people's food, and the hands are soft when taking other people's things.
Granny Cai had no idea that Fu Yunxi's brother was the current emperor, and her stepmother was the current empress dowager. Her deceased parents were the late emperor and empress.
Just then, the princess asked her to feed Ye Qingyan some soup, so she took the bowl and left.
——
After Ye Qingyan woke up, she looked at the surrounding environment and saw that she was rescued, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She didn't want to be trapped in that palace, she wanted to get out and find her own life.
When she saw the man coming in, she smiled appropriately. It seemed that this man had saved her.
"Thank you very much for saving my life," Ye Qingyan said, while also observing his every move.
The man's eyes were clear and it was obvious that he was a sincere person.
Ye Qingyan had only met nobles in the palace, so this was the first time she had seen this kind of person, and she felt relieved.
As long as she could hide here for a while, she would be able to get rid of that man.
"Your aunt is outside. She and I saved you together." Song Yi didn't want to take credit for it. Besides, the two of them had exchanged a few words outside just now. Now he felt more familiar with her than the woman in front of him.
Ye Qingyan was stunned when she heard this and didn't react for a long time. When she wanted to speak again, she saw Fu Yunxi in a red dress walked in.
Compared to the clothes she wore in the palace before, this one was simple and didn't even have any extra decorations.
Isn't the princess in the palace? When did she come here?
If the princess came, wouldn’t Rong Ye be nearby?
Ye Qingyan was frightened, with a look of panic on her face. She opened her mouth to say something but before she could open her mouth, she saw the princess who was usually so high and mighty, now sitting beside her with a worried look on her face, calling her sister-in-law all the time.
She was just a maid in the palace, although she had some skills and was liked by the nobles.
But the princess is a legitimate daughter, and there is only one princess in the palace now. She was extremely favored by the late emperor when he was alive, and she developed a condescending personality.
Seeing the panic in her eyes, Fu Yunxi curled the corners of his lips, walked calmly to Ye Qingyan and sat down, holding her hand, and said with concern, "Sister-in-law, just take care of yourself. Brother made you suffer, so he deserves to be anxious."
The implication was that she would not tell her brother about this.
