Chapter 406 It's quite rare to see a kid who isn't shy.



Gu Liulang was beaten up; according to him, it was a pretty boy.

They pinned him down at the entrance of the men's restroom and beat him for quite a while.

Waaaaah, it hurts so much!

Jiang Yue frowned, looking at her cheap little brother's newly acquired panda eyes, suppressing a laugh, and asked:

"Pretty boy? How did you get involved with him?"

"Provoke? Sister, I didn't provoke him. I... I just finished using the restroom, and when I came out, I saw that pretty boy standing outside, so I casually asked him if he wanted to come in and relieve himself. That's how I got beaten up!"

Gu Liulang said pitifully, not even bothering to rub his wound with the peeled egg in his hand.

It's not easy for him, is it? He's just using a secondary account.

He was beaten up for no reason as soon as he stepped out the door, and it hurt terribly!

"You, in your verbal sparring, you probably offended someone without realizing it and got beaten up. You should be more careful next time."

Jiang Yue smiled. Although she didn't know the specific reason, she was certain that the kid had offended someone to get beaten up.

"Sister~"

Gu Liulang realized that his older sister wasn't protecting him, and was even mocking him a little.

"Alright, after you recover from your injury, go to the recruit training camp and train. Don't be so weak that you can't even kill a chicken."

Jiang Yue sighed. If she weren't worried about what might happen to this guy and how heartbroken her grandparents would be, she wouldn't have come up with this idea.

"Sister, is training tough?"

Gu Liulang asked a very foolish question.

Jiang Yue didn't even bother to give them a glance and simply had them seen off.

Training is never easy.

Can you learn real skills without hard work?

This guy's lost his mind.

"Milk~ play~"

"I want to go out and play!"

Little Tangyuan kept asking to go out and play, but her own parents wouldn't listen, so she stumbled over to her grandma.

"Okay, okay, Grandma will take you to play, but you have to be a good girl~"

Jiang Yue's affection for her chubby grandson was palpable.

Sigh, she's probably really getting old; she just can't handle such a cute grandson!

"Mmm~"

Little Tangyuan nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes! If I can go out to play, whatever Grandma says goes!"

On a sunny early spring day, when the spring chill was still sharp, the snow on the streets outside the Princess's mansion showed signs of melting.

Jiang Yue, accompanied by several guards, secretly protected the grandmother and grandson. Disguised as an ordinary woman, she strolled along the bustling streets of Yunshui County, holding her grandson.

The little guy wanted this and that, but he didn't say anything; he just glanced at them a few more times.

Jiang Yue didn't ask any questions. When she came to a small street stall selling wontons, she stopped, ordered a bowl of wontons, and sat down at a table and chair in the corner to rest.

"I want milk too!"

Little Tangyuan speaks much more fluently now, but she still only utters a few words at a time. When she can't express herself, she gestures with her hands and feet.

Perhaps because they are raised with great care and have tender meat, they are plump and very endearing.

"Oh, sir, is this your grandson? He's so well-raised, he looks so blessed!"

The stall was run by an elderly couple. When the old woman was serving noodles to a customer at the next table, she couldn't help but praise the customer a few times.

"Oh, this is my second son's son, my little grandson, nicknamed Tangyuan. He's fair-skinned and chubby, and very clever!"

Jiang Yue was approachable and unpretentious. When someone chimed in and praised her grandson, she responded with a few words while waiting.

"Your baby is clearly well-raised. Your son and daughter-in-law are so lucky to have you taking care of the baby; they must have so much less work!"

The old man at the next table chuckled and chimed in, praising it as well.

"Thank you for your kind words~"

Jiang Yue smiled, hugged her grandson, and kissed the little guy's cheek.

"Giggle~"

The little dumpling knew that the milk cared about her, which is why it kissed her.

She immediately hid shyly, then burst into laughter.

"Sir, your wontons are here! They're fresh out of the pot, still piping hot. Be careful not to burn your precious grandson!"

The old man brought over a large bowl of wontons, a generous portion, clearly indicating a good shop.

"Tsk tsk, I should have ordered wontons too. The filling is so generous."

The old man at the next table shook his head, seemingly somewhat regretful.

"You can have some wontons tomorrow, but let's have noodles today."

The old man smiled and offered his advice, thinking to himself that their shop was a small business, and the food was not expensive at all.

"Okay, I'll order wontons tomorrow~"

The old man nodded and actually agreed.

It seemed that this was not a difficult thing.

The little grandson in Jiang Yue's arms was very well-behaved; when told not to move, he really didn't move.

She asked for an empty bowl and specially picked out a few wontons to let them cool.

"Boss, the bill, please!"

People at other tables started paying their bills, and the elderly couple went over to clean up and collect the money, all in one smooth motion.

The guards who had secretly followed also disguised themselves as ordinary people to dine; some ordered noodles, and some ordered wontons.

Little Tangyuan recognized several uncles and elders, and with a bright smile, showed off her white teeth; she was quite cute.

As the old woman finished clearing away the dishes and passed by, she remarked with heartfelt emotion:

"It's quite rare to see a child who isn't shy."

Jiang Yue smiled without saying a word, took a bite of the wonton, and her eyes lit up immediately.

No wonder this shop is so popular; the food here is truly extraordinary.

"Milk~ Ah~"

The little glutinous rice ball smelled the aroma and its mouth started watering.

With its mouth open, ah, it wants to eat.

This is what he usually does at home.

"So cute~"

Jiang Yue nodded, scooped a wonton onto a spoon, blew on it for a while to make sure it wasn't too hot, and then carefully fed it to her grandson.

The little glutinous rice ball nibbled on the wonton wrapper, thinking, "Delicious, delicious, I want more!"

After eating about five, I felt full.

After Jiang Yue coaxed the little one to sit still, it was her turn to have a hearty meal.

While I was eating wontons, I heard the murmurs of other diners:

"Hey, have you guys heard? Apparently something happened at the refugee camp."

"What's up?"

"It's haunted!"

"Huh? It's broad daylight, where would there be ghosts?"

"It's true, my second uncle is delivering water; he heard it from the refugees in the refugee camp."

"Don't joke around, there's no ghost here. It's probably just someone who has something to hide."

"Sigh, you don't believe me when I tell you."

"Even if what you're saying is true, it's alright. We have Princess Jiang with us, what are we afraid of?"

"That's true."

"Milk~"

Little Tangyuan seemed to have heard her grandmother's nickname, and looked at her grandmother with bright eyes.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Yue quickly made a shushing gesture.

I'm not afraid of being recognized by others, but I'm afraid of my identity being exposed by my grandson.

A moment later—

Jiang Yue's wontons were almost empty, and she glanced at the guards' table, which was also nearly empty.

"How much are the wontons, shopkeeper?"

"Ten copper coins."

"Thump~"

Jiang Yue counted out ten copper coins and placed them on the table.

Then he picked up his grandson and prepared to head home.

"How much is this table, sir?"

Forty copper coins.

"Okay, here's the money, you can count it."

"Oh, no need. If you enjoy the food, please come again next time."

"good."
