"Your Highness, you seem to know each other before?"
"Yes! Back when I was still in the capital, I encountered a lost Fu'er at a palace banquet. She was so young then, but her crying was incredibly loud, so loud that it hurt my ears. I had no choice but to carry her back to the banquet. Since then, this little one has been attached to me. Unfortunately, my power is too weak, and I cannot help the Xie family when they are in trouble."
It seemed as if he had returned to the beautiful days of his youth, and a gentle smile slowly appeared on Xiao Jue's face.
A mature and refined man may hold a unique attraction for a young girl just beginning to experience love.
Xie Fu, standing to the side, was mesmerized.
Lin Yan couldn't help but secretly roll her eyes.
Judging from Xiao Jue's words, it is clear that he has no romantic feelings for Xie Fu.
There was only pure brotherly and sisterly affection.
But Xie Fu became deeply involved in it.
Lin's cigarette butt hurts so much!
Fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boys and girls are in their rebellious teenage years.
She's only been married for a day, hasn't even become a mother yet, and she's already going to start disciplining a rebellious teenage girl?
Wait, something's not right!
Ptooey! Ptooey!
She's not Xie Fu's mother...
Otherwise, wouldn't she be taking advantage of Xie Muqing?
Lin Yan's expression kept changing. After a while, she finally straightened her face again and tried to make her voice as gentle as possible.
After all, you can't go against a rebellious teenager.
Otherwise, she might mistakenly believe that all external obstacles are tests of her love!
"Xie Fu, let's go back first and come to the city again next time, okay? Your mother cried so hard today, at least go back and put her mind at ease."
To everyone's surprise, Xie Fu's emotions were not calmed down at all.
It actually became even more intense!
"I don't want to! I hate that place, it smells like mud, yellow earth, and grass everywhere! I can't even go out when it rains!"
Seeing that Xie Fu seemed about to cry again, Xiao Jue instantly recalled the fear he felt when he was young, being dominated by her crying! He quickly spoke up to try to interrupt her.
"Miss Lin, how about I write a letter for you to take back to Madam Xie? Don't worry, while Fu'er is staying at the Prince's residence, I will send guards and maids to protect and serve her. Whenever she wants to go back, I will send someone to escort her back. What do you think?"
That's what the master of the Prince's mansion said.
Lin Yan didn't know what to say, otherwise it would be seen as a lack of trust in the prince.
"In that case, I'll leave Xiao Fu in your care, Your Highness. I'll take my leave now!"
Lin Yan had barely stepped out the door when she still couldn't put her mind at ease and sighed softly before looking at Xie Fu and saying:
"Xie Fu, I'll be staying in the city for the next few days. If you want to go home, you can come find me at the hot pot restaurant."
Xie Fu hugged the bundle in her hands tightly and softly replied, "Mm."
After leaving the Prince's Mansion, Lin Yan went straight back to the hot pot restaurant.
After she finished writing the letter in a hurry, she handed it to the messenger and asked them to deliver it to Madam Xie in Xiaolin Village.
After finishing all that.
She then noticed that the shop seemed much quieter.
Only then did she belatedly realize that Peach Blossom was not in the shop.
Whenever she comes over, she immediately rushes to her side.
"Where are the lotus flowers and peach blossoms?"
"Peach Blossom took a few days off to go home and visit her parents."
"It's alright."
Nothing to do.
Lin Yan then decided to go for a stroll in the streets.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out the door, she found that snowflakes had begun to fall from the sky.
She then gave up the idea of going out.
Wow! It's snowing! Judging from the sky, it looks like a heavy snowfall.
"A timely snow promises a bumper harvest; I hope this year will be a good one!"
Several girls were sold to this place from the south, and even after living in the northwest for several years, they still get very excited when they see snow.
It just so happens to be afternoon, and there isn't much business in the shop.
They then ran out to see the snow.
Lin Yan, however, was not so optimistic.
Once heavy snow falls, who knows how many more thatched huts will collapse under the weight of the snow...
Unfortunately, her strength was too weak on her own, and thinking about it would only add to her worries, so she might as well go back to her room and lie down.
I lay there for two hours, and when I woke up, it was already past midnight.
Because of the snow.
Business at the store isn't very good.
She stood idly at the door, admiring the snow scene while greeting guests.
Suddenly, Xu Yuze's tall and straight figure came into her view.
However, he, who is usually very clean, had some dust on his clothes today, which was unexpected.
Shock flashed in Lin Yan's eyes, and she stammered, "..."
"My lord, why do you look so disheveled today?"
Xu Yuze was quite embarrassed.
He awkwardly touched the tip of his nose.
But it was snowing, and the roads were inconvenient. By the time he returned to the yamen to change his clothes and came back, who knew how long it would take.
"It started snowing at noon, and I was worried that some houses might collapse, so I took some people to the outskirts of the city to reinforce some thatched huts. On the way back, when I passed by this place, I was suddenly lured by the aroma of hot pot, and realized that I was already starving and freezing. So I haven't had time to change my clothes yet, and I'm a little dirty. I hope Miss Lin won't mind."
Lin Yan always thought so.
Xu Yuze was only responsible for being meticulous when solving cases.
Little did I know that he cared so much about the people's livelihood, and my goodwill towards him increased even more.
They hurriedly and enthusiastically led the person into the store.
"How could we possibly mind?! It is an honor for us common people that you are so dedicated to serving the people! It's cold outside, come inside quickly. I happen to owe you a meal, so I'll treat you to a meal today."
The second floor of Yuelai Inn across the street.
Watching the two people chatting and laughing in the hot pot restaurant, Xie Muqing remained silent, his handsome face gloomy, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
