Thirteen picked up a piece of crispy chicken with his chopsticks and said, "What's so special about this? You've missed out on a lot of fun things. Back then, I spent three thousand taels of silver just to eat Fourth Sister-in-law's secret porridge, all because of Fourth Brother..."
“Even eating can’t shut you up,” Yinzhen interrupted him irritably.
He was very embarrassed by that kind of embarrassing incident.
"Hehe, look at my mouth, I deserve a beating." Thirteen slapped his mouth playfully, then lowered his head. "I'll tell you secretly later, but we can't let Fourth Brother find out."
Fourteen nodded repeatedly and quickly went to eat as if nothing had happened.
"Two childish brats," Nan Yi cursed inwardly.

"What's the story with Sister-in-law Nian in that household? I heard Fourth Brother dotes on her a lot," Fourteenth Brother asked curiously.
"What could it be? Both of my sisters-in-law are liked by my fourth brother."
“It’s different.” Fourteen shook his head. He had seen such deep affection in his father’s eyes before. That person spent half his time in Songyanzhai and half his time in Changchun Palace.
The mother was considered favored, while that person, on the surface, was not favored. The Emperor kept it well hidden, and almost no one knew about it, but he accidentally stumbled upon it.
