Mrs. Yun was speechless after hearing this.
Old Madam Yun was leaning against the wall, not knowing what she was thinking. Then she asked, "When did you say the Madam would be back?"
The "Grand Madam" Old Lady Yun was referring to was the Yanbei Prince's biological mother, Concubine Yun. Concubine Yun and the old princess had been at odds, fighting for decades. Although Concubine Yun had given birth to a son who inherited the Yanbei Prince's mansion, the old princess always had a superior position to Concubine Yun. Even with the Yanbei Prince still around, he couldn't favor his biological mother.
Therefore, Concubine Yun was unwilling to stay in the Yanbei Palace. She volunteered to guard the old prince's tomb and lived in the other courtyard all year round, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures. Therefore, since the old prince's death, Concubine Yun and the old princess have been living in peace.
Madam Yun quickly replied, "The person who delivered something to Madam Tai last time said that Madam Tai would be back before the New Year."
Old Mrs. Yun hummed and fell silent.
After a while, she waved her hand and said, "You go out first. I need to think about this matter again."
Mrs. Yun then withdrew as instructed.
After coming out of Old Lady Yun’s yard, Mrs. Yun thought about it and decided to go to Yun Qiuchen’s yard.
When Madam Yun arrived, Yun Qiuchen was copying a Buddhist scripture in her study. She stood before her desk, her right hand holding a pen, her wrist suspended, her head slightly lowered, her expression serious, revealing a stretch of her snow-white neck. Even without looking at Yun Qiuchen's face, the aura she exuded in her every move was enough to draw the eye.
Mrs. Yun sighed inwardly but didn't bother her. She stood aside and waited until Yun Qiuchen finished copying a short paragraph. Then she walked over and asked, "Why are you copying Buddhist scriptures again?"
Yun Qiuchen only then saw Madam Yun and quickly put down his pen and stepped forward to greet her. "Why is Mother here?"
Yun Qiuchen called his maid to come up and tidy up the desk, then personally helped Madam Yun to sit on the kang bed next door. Then he said, "Madam Tai had mentioned that she wanted someone to embroider a 'The Sutra of the Original Vow of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva'. Seeing that my handwriting was quite acceptable, I took it on."
Madam Yun looked at her daughter and sighed, "Madam Tai has always loved you. You must copy carefully."
Yun Qiuchen smiled: "That's natural."
Mrs. Yun couldn't help but sigh again.
Yun Qiuchen personally took the tea from the maid and handed it to Madam Yun: "Mother, why do you keep sighing?"
Madam Yun took the tea bowl and held it in her hands for a while without drinking: "Chen'er, the Yanbei Palace has proposed marriage to the Ren family."
Yun Qiuchen nodded upon hearing this, her usually gentle and beautiful face showing no emotion. "Daughter knows. I also heard that the princess personally went to meet Ren Yaoqi's parents today."
"Chen'er, what are you thinking?" Madam Yun looked at her daughter inquiringly. Yun Qiuchen was Madam Yun's daughter, and Madam Yun had always thought her daughter was well-behaved, sensible, and intelligent, making her a worry-free person. However, there were times when Madam Yun couldn't quite understand her daughter.
Yun Qiuchen pondered for a moment and was about to speak when her maid Nanzhu lifted the curtain and hurried in. Seeing Madam Yun, she was also stunned and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.
Madam Yun knew she had something to report when she saw her expression, and a look of displeasure appeared on her face. "Is there anything I can't bear to hear?"
