Personally, Ren Yaoqi didn't want Xiao Wei and Wu Yiyu to come back. This mother and daughter were too noisy and had bad intentions.
Xiao Jingxi seemed to understand what Ren Yaoqi was thinking and smiled, "Madam Wu's son is in Ningxia, so she naturally can't be too far away. Although the young master of the Wu family is still young, he shoulders a heavy responsibility. How can he not have an elder to look after him?"
Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that the son of Madam Wu that Xiao Jingxi mentioned was the posthumous child of Di, the wife of Wu Xiaohe. She couldn't help but laugh, looking at the cunning man beside her, she said, "You handed Madam Wu over to the Di family? Are you a bad guy?"
Xiao Jingxi pinched Ren Yaoqi's face and said unhappily, "My lady, please don't say anything careless. My husband is a man of great talent and good character. He is the perfect match for you. What's wrong with him?"
Ren Yaoqi: “…”
"Everyone has their own place. If you stand in the wrong place, it will be a mess. Since Mrs. Wu has married into the Wu family, she is a member of the Wu family. She should obey her husband after marriage and obey her son after her husband's death. This is the rule she should abide by. As for Wu Yiyu, she is still the young lady of the Zeng family. When the day comes that Zeng and his son are gone, the place she should return to is her natal family rather than her uncle's family." Wu Yiyu's natal family is naturally where her younger brother, the young master of the Wu family, lives.
Xiao Jingxi's tone was light but firm when he said these words.
People like Xiao Jingxi naturally understand that not just any cat or dog can be picked up in their backyard. While the King of Yanbei cares about the brotherly relationship, he doesn't need to consider it. He is even more ruthless than the King of Yanbei. However, Xiao Jingxi's ruthlessness reassures those close to him.
The couple was talking here when Apple came in to report that the princess came to ask Xiao Jingxi to come over.
Xiao Jingxi said to Ren Yaoqi, "Mother must have asked me to attend the old princess' funeral. I'm going to the Nine Suns Palace."
The old princess' body had been sent back to the Yanbei Palace, and the princess had already ordered the construction of a mourning hall. She told Ren Yaoqi to stay in Zhaoning Palace and not go out, because the old princess had not died of old age, and the princess was afraid of disturbing the child in Ren Yaoqi's belly. Of course, the princess would not say this openly, and would only say that Ren Yaoqi was frightened.
Ren Yaoqi stood up and saw Xiao Jingxi out.
"Is Jinglin coming back too?"
Originally, Xiao Jinglin would not come back so soon, but the old princess died, and as a granddaughter, she had to come back to attend the funeral.
Xiao Jingxi nodded: "I have sent a letter. Jinglin will be back in the next few days. You should go back. It's windy outside today. Don't go out."
Ren Yaoqi didn't insist on going out to see Xiao Jingxi off after hearing this. After Xiao Jingxi left, she turned around and came back. Ren Yaoqi was still in good spirits after a nap, and thought of going to the study to find a book to read to entertain herself. While waiting for Xiao Jingxi to come back, she heard two maids talking quietly when she walked into the study.
"...The princess sent Doctor Zhang, Doctor Li, and Doctor Gu to the Yun family, but he was too badly injured and there was no telling if he could be saved."
"We must save him, otherwise Yanbei will lose a powerful general like Second Young Master Yun."
