The smile on Ren Yaohua's face froze, and her face turned red. She tried to hold back her tears, but when she saw the glances from Yun Wenfang and Qiu Yun in front of her, tears welled up in her eyes. Finally, she glared at her brother fiercely and ran away in shame.
Lin secretly glared at her son, then smiled and came to her daughter's rescue, saying, "These two siblings have a good relationship on weekdays and are used to quarreling. Now they're also making a fuss outside."
Ren Yijian stuck out his tongue and made faces secretly.
Several young masters went downstairs to change their clothes. When Ren Yaoqi and others saw the fifth master and his wife coming over, they hurriedly stood up and saluted.
The eldest young lady said, "Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu, you are finally here. My husband wanted to wait for you to come before starting, but when he saw that Yijian and the others had changed into light clothes, he let them start the game."
Ren Shimao laughed: "There was a problem with the carriage on the way, so it was delayed."
How could the carriage have been out of order for the entire morning? Couldn't they have sent someone over or gone back to Ren's house to have someone drive a carriage to pick them up? Everyone was puzzled.
Lin continued, "Oh, we happened to run into the Yanbei Palace's convoy on the way. They were planning to stop in Baihe Town for a short break before heading back to Yunyang City. My family has some connections with the Yanbei Palace, so since we ran into them, we went over to say hello and even arranged for someone to entertain them."
"Huh? Who else would come back from the Yanbei Palace at this time? The New Year is just a few days away. Could it be that the prince has returned from the capital?" The people of Yanbei have always been a little in awe of the Yanbei Palace, but the Yanbei Palace is also very low-key on weekdays, which makes everyone more interested in the affairs of the Yanbei Palace.
Lin smiled slightly: "How many years has it been since the prince came to the capital? If he came back today, how could we not hear any movement? It's the second young master who has returned."
As soon as Lin said this, there were cries of surprise from all around. Lin looked at it with some satisfaction.
"The Second Young Master is back? Didn't he go out to sea to the South Seas to seek immortals and medicine? Why did he suddenly come back today? Has his illness been cured?"
"Mom, have you seen the true appearance of the second young master? Is he really as handsome as Pan An and flawless as jade as everyone says?" Ren Yaoyu, who was originally still angry, was also attracted by his attention and asked while gently shaking Li's arm.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lin sighed, "It seems the Second Young Master didn't find any immortals on his long journey this time. I heard that his guards did find some medicine. I saw that he brought back several carts of branches and herbs, and I could smell the strong aroma of medicine from afar. If he were well, he would definitely come to see me and my husband. But his current condition... Sigh!"
Ren Yaoqi listened and smiled slightly.
Lin's family had connections with the Yanbei Palace, and it seemed as if she knew everyone there. In fact, in her previous life, Lin had been trying to get the Fifth Master to marry into the Yanbei Palace, but unfortunately, it didn't work out in the end.
