Sisi teased Niu Mingjie on purpose. "What's bothering you? Tell my son, he's really amazing."
Little Gou Dan was already used to it. He calmly took a bite of his bun. "Hmm, I'm amazing. My grandfather was the emperor."
Niu Mingjie wanted to rub his forehead again. "Yun Xiaoliu, what kind of mother are you?"
Sisi: "Isn't there one right in front of you?"
Little Gou Dan handed his tattered little bowl to Niu Mingjie. "Third Uncle, could you give me some more copper coins? I'm so pitiful, my mother bullies me every day."
Third Uncle took out a gold ingot and put it into Gou Dan's little broken bowl.
"Thank you, Third Uncle. Third Uncle, you're so kind. Mother, I've collected enough gold ingots, can I go to Grandma's house to play now?" Grandma's house has many children, it's very lively.
Sisi: "Yes, but we have to wait until Mother and your third uncle finish their conversation."
"Okay." Gou Dan put the silver into Si Si's pocket.
Niu Mingjie wanted to rub his forehead again. "Yun Xiaoliu, you're still assigning tasks to your son?"
"Yes. You have to work hard for what you want. Right, son?"
Little Dog Egg nodded and shouted, "Yes!"
Alright, whatever makes you two happy. "A female scholar has emerged from the area I govern. I've had someone cover it up for now."
Sisi raised an eyebrow. "Since you were able to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar, it means you're quite learned. However, it's not so easy to compete with men for a living."
"Here's what you'll do: when you get back, gather all the scholars in that group together. Then assign them three identical tasks. If she does better than everyone else each time, then she'll be the first female scholar in our Great Ning Dynasty."
“If she does the same as others, or even worse, then let her go to the border to find Xinyue and the others.”
"Our Great Ning Dynasty has only been established for a few years and is not yet suitable for major changes. Unless she is exceptionally outstanding."
"Alright, what about His Majesty?"
"I'll have Ning Yirong speak to His Majesty. By the way, when are you planning to get married? My son is old enough to play with me."
Shouldn't you be playing with your son? You're really not a good mother. "I also want to get married, but I haven't met a girl I want to marry."
"Alright. If you still meet someone when you're forty, I'll choose a few beauties for you. How many do you want?"
Ten.
"OK."
"...Yun Xiaoliu, do you want me to die young?"
Sisi glanced at Niu Mingjie. "You really don't know how to enjoy life. I'm married into the royal family now, so I have to set an example for all women. Otherwise, I would definitely fill my courtyard with a bunch of beauties."
Niu Mingjie glared at Sisi. "Luckily, His Highness the Crown Prince took you in, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble you would have caused?"
Little Gou Dan had just felt that Niu Mingjie looked familiar. Now, Little Gou Dan knows why? "Third Uncle, you look just like my Fourteenth Uncle." My Fourteenth Uncle often says that to my mother too.
"Yeah?"
"Yes, Uncle, why don't you come with us to my grandma's house?"
"No, my third uncle has other things to do."
No sooner had Niu Mingjie finished speaking than little Gou Dan grabbed his broken little bowl and rushed out. "Sir, please give me some copper coins, I'm hungry."
The adult wanted to run away.
The adults didn't want to admit that the chubby little beggar was their grandson.
Unfortunately, the adult had only taken two steps when a chubby little boy appeared on his leg.
The chubby boy was still feigning pitifulness. "Sir, please give me some copper coins. I haven't eaten for three days."
The chubby boy loves to tease his grandfather.
His maternal grandfather is so funny.
As soon as his maternal grandfather got out of town, he wanted to find him and his mother, to see if they had come out to play.
After finding them, they didn't want to acknowledge them and wanted to run away.
Yun Yuqi covered her face with one hand and took out a handful of copper coins from her pocket with the other, putting them into Gou Dan's small, broken bowl. "Alright, go find your mother now."
He was worried that his daughter would be mistreated after marrying into the royal family, so his daughter behaved herself for a few months during her pregnancy and postpartum period.
The last time he saw her, he also saw his daughter dressed up as wealthy merchants and taking the Empress and Empress Dowager to a casino to gamble.
Little Gou Dan still wanted to play with his maternal grandfather. "Sir, you're such a kind person. Sir, do you have a grandson? Isn't your grandson adorable?"
"Yes, she's cute. Okay, go find your mother now."
"Sir, do you have a daughter? Isn't she adorable?"
Yes, he's not cute at all. He takes his grandson out for a stroll every day. Look at the state he's made of his grandson; you wouldn't recognize him if he weren't his own. "Yes, he is cute. Alright, go find your mother now."
"Alright. You're all grown up now, so please go ahead with your work. Sir, I really like you."
After saying that, Gou Dan released Yun Yuqi.
Yun Yuqi left quickly.
As I walked, I kept telling myself: I will never look for that mother and daughter again next time I go out.
Niu Mingjie was amused by Yun Yuqi and Gou Dan. "Look, even your father doesn't want to acknowledge you."
Sisi smiled. If she didn't want to acknowledge them, she wouldn't run into them so often. "Yeah. Godfather is the best. Every time he sees us, he compliments our outfits and says he wants to get one for him too."
Just as Sisi finished speaking, little Gou Dan came back carrying his little broken bowl. "Mom, here you go."
Sisi took half. "The rest is a reward for you."
"Thank you, Mother."
"good."
Niu Mingjie wanted to rub his forehead again. "Yun Xiaoliu, you have no shame."
What's there to be embarrassed about? "My son is being filial to me. Son, your third uncle is jealous of his mother."
Little Gou Dan handed his tattered little bowl to Niu Mingjie. "Third Uncle, I'll share half with you."
