"You! Did you use those tricks you learned from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion on me again?"
Feng Chan thought to herself, "That's right! My daughter said your family could collapse at any time. If you were beheaded by the Emperor, wouldn't I never have the chance to give my daughter a younger brother from the same parents again? I risked losing my head to come back with you because I wanted to give my daughter a younger brother from the same parents. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back. I'm not stupid."
However, she wouldn't say these things to Yun Yuqi. Yun Yuqi didn't treat her as a wife, nor did he treat Sisi as a daughter.
Feng Chan glared at Yun Yuqi and said, "Stop spouting nonsense! Are you drunk and mistaking me for your ex-wife?"
Yun Yuqi was stumped!
He did drink last night, and he did dream about doing *that* with Sun Wanjing.
Seeing that Yun Yuqi was silent, Feng Chan said, "Why aren't you saying anything? Did I hit the nail on the head?"
Yun Yuqi would never admit it. "I just don't want to talk to you."
After saying that, Yun Yuqi started to get dressed, and then left.
Feng Chan touched her belly, hoping that her belly would cooperate as well as last time.
Meanwhile, when Old Madam Yun woke up, she was surprised to find that Old Master Yun hadn't gotten up yet. Usually, Old Master Yun would get up early to supervise his great-grandchildren's morning reading.
Madam Yun nudged Old Master Yun. "Get up."
Grandpa Yun didn't react at all.
Madam Yun nudged him again, but Old Master Yun still didn't react. Madam Yun touched Old Master Yun's forehead. "Someone! Someone come quick!"
Zhi Shu, the head maid who was leading the younger maids outside and waiting to serve Old Master Yun and Old Madam Yun while they washed up, quickly pushed open the door and came in. "Old Madam, what's wrong?"
"The old master is ill! Go quickly and fetch a doctor! Hurry!"
"Yes! This servant will go right away."
Logically, the wedding should have been followed by a family reunion on the second day after the wedding, but with Old Master Yun ill, who would care about that?
After breakfast, Sisi came to see her mother, said a few words to her, and then took Lao Bai out.
Old Master Yun was still asleep, and the butler was busy with Old Master Yun's affairs, so he had no time to take care of Sisi.
After Lao Bai followed Si Si out of the Yun family's house, he looked at Si Si and asked in a low voice, "Little monster, why did you make Old Man Yun sick?"
"We took 100,000 taels of silver from the Zhang family, so we have to make them feel that the money was well spent. Also, we haven't laid out our escape route yet, so we can't let him cause trouble."
"Why not just kill him to stop him from causing trouble?"
"He cannot die."
"Why?"
Sisi glanced at Lao Bai sideways. Was there even a need to ask?
Consort Zhang and the others were both pleased and disappointed to learn that Old Master Yun was ill. They were pleased because they could take advantage of Old Master Yun's illness to finalize the matter of choosing an heir.
Disappointingly, they had already arranged for ginseng, but Old Master Yun, who was not strict in managing his household, fell ill. And why just be sick? It would have been so much better if he had simply died.
Not far from the palace, a young eunuch was hurrying towards the palace carrying a food box.
Suddenly, a leg appeared in front of them.
The young eunuch couldn't stop in time and fell to the ground.
The food box in the little eunuch's hand also flew out.
The little eunuch was about to get up to retrieve the food box when someone stepped on him. "Idiot! Call me Grandma! Call me Grandma and I'll let you get up."
The young eunuch was taken aback. Where did this wild girl come from? "Young lady, are you new to the capital?"
"Why do you care if I'm new to the capital? Call me Grandma."
"Little girl, I am the Emperor's man. Do you know who the Emperor is?"
Snap!
The little girl smacked the eunuch on the head. "Shut up! Are you going to call me or not? If you don't, I'll have someone smash your food box."
That won't do. "Grandma."
"Good boy. Say it again."
“Little girl, I’ve already called her.”
Snap!
The little girl patted the eunuch again. "Just say it when I tell you to."
"Little girl, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the little girl looked at the burly man next to her and said, "Stomp on that food box!"
"Okay!"
Crack! The big man stomped on the food box on the ground and smashed it to pieces.
The little eunuch's face turned pale instantly. "You...you're courting death!"
Snap!
The little girl slapped the eunuch again. "Who are you trying to scare? Call me grandma."
The young eunuch gritted his teeth. "Grandma."
"Good boy. Say it again."
"Grandma, do you dare to come with me somewhere?"
Snap!
The little girl slapped the eunuch again. "How dare you look down on me? Let me tell you, there's no place in the world I wouldn't dare to go."
"Okay. Let's go then."
"Let's go then." The little girl lifted her foot.
The young eunuch got up from the ground. After getting up, he first picked up the food box that had been trampled by the big man before looking at the little girl and saying, "Grandma, please."
The little girl puffed out her chest. "Lead the way."
"yes."
After a while, the little eunuch led the girl and the big man to the place where he usually entered and exited the palace.
The young guard at the gate, seeing him with two strangers, asked, "Eunuch Xu, who are these two people?"
Eunuch Xu held up the rotten food box in his hand for the young general to see. He wasn't afraid they would run away now. "They trampled on Steward Qi's pastries."
The young man thought to himself: Where did this bumpkin come from? He even dared to step on Steward Qi's snacks, he's really asking for trouble.
The young officer looked at Eunuch Xu and said, "Then we should bring them back. However, this man can't go in. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him for you."
Eunuch Xu knew he couldn't bring the big man in. "Thank you for your trouble."
"You're too kind, Eunuch Xu. Please take this little girl inside."
