(Leifeng Kingdom's capital, Junyanfang on Chengnan Street.)
(Pregnant Lianxing)
(Xiaochun, Lianxing's personal servant and the manager of Junyanfang.)
On the sunny afternoon of March 18th, Feng Lingyan entered the palace. However, he did not go to the Bixia Palace, but went directly to the Lingkun Courtyard in the East Palace.
When Feng Lingyan saw how Longlong and Fengfeng were being well-behaved and quiet, not crying or making a fuss, under the careful care of Yu Xiaotian and Si Chengfeng, she immediately realized she had been fooled. However, facing the extremely adorable twin babies before her, Feng Lingyan's heart couldn't help but soften.
He hugged this one, then hugged that one, gazing at the tender little life in his arms, his eyes filled with doting tenderness. At this moment, he seemed to have no time to care about the fact that Nalan Yunzhi had tricked him into entering the palace.
After all, these two little guys are his daughter's own flesh and blood, and are also his grandson and granddaughter; now that his daughter and husband are not around, it is only natural for him to take care of them.
Nalan Yunzhi noticed the loving expression Feng Lingyan showed to the two children, and her undisguised joy, and she couldn't help but feel secretly happy in her heart: It seems that I made the right move!
So, whenever Feng Lingyan picked up Longlong, Nalan Yunzhi would tacitly take Fengfeng and hold her tightly in her arms; and when Feng Lingyan shifted her attention to Fengfeng, she would gently pick up Longlong and chat with Feng Lingyan about every detail of this pair of lovely grandchildren.
The topics they talked about ranged from the two children's delicate and lovely faces and clothes to their unique temperaments and daily habits.
Feng Lingyan listened intently to every detail Nalan Yunzhi shared about the two little ones, fearing any omissions, without a trace of impatience. His clear, bright eyes gleamed with a gentle, loving light, as if he wanted to pour all the beauty of the world into the two innocent babies before him.
Si Chengfeng on the side remained silent the whole time, just listening to the two of them talking without interrupting; but Yu Xiaotian would correct Nalan Yunzhi in time when he said something wrong.
Every time this happened, Nalan Yunzhi would endure the silence as ten thousand alpacas roared past his head, and thank him with gritted teeth.
Yu Xiaotian would always respond politely with a slight smile and said seriously: "We are all family, no need to be polite..."
Just as Feng Lingyan was enjoying the joy of playing with her grandchildren, Yu Jingyang and several wealthy men in the capital were returning from an outing in the south of the city, and their carriages slowly drove into the city.
Suddenly, the wheels made a strange noise and the carriage stopped. The driver jumped out of the carriage and found that the wheel was faulty.
The carriage stopped in front of a shop, and the nobles alighted. People were coming and going in front of the shop, and passersby looked curiously at the group of people in fine clothes. Yu Jingyang stood there, looking somewhat helpless. He frowned slightly, looking at the carriage in front of him, and silently prayed that the repairs would not take too long.
The nobles began to whisper to each other, some complaining about the sudden change, while others observed the surrounding street scenes with great interest.
Seeing this, Xiaochun, the shop manager, immediately ordered his staff to approach and politely ask if they needed any help. He thought that perhaps he could attract a group of customers to the store and make a lot of money, after all, these people were obviously wealthy or noble.
Yu Jingyang waved his hand to signal the men not to worry, then turned and started talking to a nobleman, seemingly discussing the next itinerary. The sunlight shone on them, reflecting their gorgeous clothes and elegant postures.
Soon, the driver reported that the wheel was broken and would take some time to repair. Yu Jingyang nodded slightly and decided to rest in the shop for a while while waiting for the carriage to be repaired. The noblemen entered the shop one after another, some selecting goods while others chatted with the steward Xiaochun.
The shop was filled with a light aroma, and the shelves were filled with all kinds of exquisite items. Yu Jingyang watched quietly from the side, occasionally exchanging a few words with the nobles, with a gentle smile on his face.
Suddenly, a nobleman looked puzzled: "Hey, I remember this was originally a rouge and powder shop, when did it become like this?"
"Brother Liu, the rouge and powder shop was transferred at the end of last year, and now this 'Junyanfang' has been open for more than four months! This is a shop specially set up for men's beauty and skin care. The boss and the clerks are all men with superb skills, which are quite extraordinary." Wang Xufeng, the legal husband of Gu Luzhu, the censor of the Censorate, smiled slightly and explained to the noble man.
The husband of the Duke's Mansion also nodded and praised: "This shop looks very unique."
The husband of the Minister of War couldn't help but tease, "No wonder you look so radiant lately, Brother Wang. It turns out you have a secret recipe for maintaining your youthful appearance!"
Wang Xufeng glanced at Yu Jingyang, who was quietly sipping tea at the tea table, then looked at everyone else and suggested with a smile, "Since we're already here and can't leave for the time being, why not take this opportunity to get some maintenance?"
As Wang Xufeng finished speaking, his proposal was quickly echoed by other noblemen. Although they all came from prominent families and had a large number of servants in their houses, and there was definitely no shortage of people to dress them up, it was still interesting to occasionally experience the life of ordinary people.
"Brother Yu, why don't you come too?" Wang Xufeng patted Yu Jingyang's shoulder.
"You guys go ahead, Jingyang will look at the storybook here."
Yu Jingyang smiled at the crowd, picked up a book from a nearby shelf, and flipped through it. He found this shop truly unique. Although it focused on beauty, it also provided customers with tea, snacks, and even storybooks and other books for entertainment. He couldn't help but feel curious about the owner's identity.
