"From now on, just follow Heng'er and call him mother. I'll go find someone to calculate a good date for you," Jing Lan continued without waiting for Liu Qinghuan to speak. "Okay, you don't have to worry about this. I'll take care of the wedding. Hua Jin, take the young lady to the courtyard to rest."
Liu Qinghuan: Everything was arranged clearly.
"By the way," Jing Lan called Liu Qinghuan back after she bowed and said goodbye, "Leave the Liuli with me for now. I'll send it to you tomorrow."
"Please do as you please."
Liu Qinghuan quickly escaped. If she stayed any longer, she was afraid that even having two children in three years would be put on the agenda.
Ye Zijun, please come back and persuade your mother!
The Ye family knew that Ye Heng was going to bring the girl back, so they had already cleaned up the yard for her in advance.
"Young lady, come in with me," Hua Jin pushed open the door and called Liu Qinghuan, who was admiring the plum blossoms in the courtyard. "The master instructed me before leaving that I will be with you all this time. If you feel bored, the master said to ask Yutang to come along."
Liu Qinghuan entered the house. A charcoal fire had already been lit, making it very warm. The four cats had already curled up in their own comfortable places. "No need. Tell me about the Ye Mansion. I don't want to step on any landmines."
"What does it mean to step on a landmine?"
Hua Jin always heard Liu Qinghuan say some strange words, so she was no longer surprised.
"Stepping on a mine means accidentally touching someone's bottom line, poking their sore spot, and then being struck by lightning."
Liu Qinghuan talked nonsense seriously, and Hua Jin listened seriously.
"You mean taboo?" Hua Jin smiled. "That's nothing. The Ye family is a military family, unlike those sour literati."
"That's good. I'm having trouble getting used to all the formalities. Tell me about the interpersonal relationships within the Ye Mansion. When I arrived, I saw the plaque on the mansion saying 'Duke Jingguo Mansion'. But is that the title of General Ye?"
Hua Jin nodded: "Miss, you are right. The title of Duke Jingguo has been passed down through the Ye family for five generations. It was won by our ancestors when the country was founded."
"The Ye family must have a deep foundation."
"That's true," Hua Jin lowered her voice, "In Yunxi City, even the royal family would find it hard to say a word against our Ye family."
"So arrogant?"
"How can he be arrogant? It's precisely because of the emperor's great grace. The Ye family has been loyal for generations, always victorious in battle, and they don't hold a large number of troops. Even if Yunxi is a little arrogant, the royal family will turn a blind eye."
"That makes sense," Liu Qinghuan nodded. "I heard from Zijun that he has a younger sister?"
Mentioning Ye Wan, Hua Jin's face changed: "Speaking of the princess, you'll know when she comes back on the second day of the new year. She's not a worry-free person."
Liu Qinghuan understood: "If I had such a strong father and brother, and such a powerful mother, I'd probably be so proud of myself."
Hua Jin shook her head: "The princess is more than just arrogant." She is simply too arrogant.
Hua Jin didn't dare to say much about the second half of the sentence, and thought to herself.
Liu Qinghuan found it funny that Hua Jin looked like she was facing a formidable enemy: "Alright, I'm scared just looking at you."
"Miss, don't be afraid. The master is here and will not let you suffer any injustice." Hua Jin smiled. Although Liu Qinghuan couldn't see it, he still felt that Hua Jin's smile was forced.
"Did she make you feel wronged?"
Liu Qinghuan screamed in his heart: I want to protect the best and most beautiful sister in the world!
"Miss, you're joking. I work under my master, so I have no connection with the princess."
Hua Jin's expression was natural, and Liu Qinghuan couldn't see any flaws, so he just let it go.
