It is conceivable that King Jing and his son, and Xiao Jingkang and his son, were scolded and criticized by the two hostesses after returning home.
Yin Qianhua, still somewhat concerned about her husband's status, quickly asked about the meeting with her in-laws. Yun Ruonan pulled a chair over and sat down next to her father, the king, and her mother, listening intently to hear the outcome.
Prince Jing, who is a powerful figure outside, turns into a gentle man when he returns home. He answers all the questions from his wife and daughter patiently and carefully, without showing any impatience at all.
Would he treat his wife like this in the future? If so, where would his manly dignity be? When there were no one around, the two of them could do whatever they wanted. But when there were outsiders, a woman should act like she put her husband first, right? The little girl was already like a runaway colt. If there was no one to control her, wouldn't she go to heaven?
"Brother, I'm asking you a question! What are you thinking about?" Yun Ruonan pushed her brother, and when she saw that he didn't respond, she poked his arm with her finger. Would a man who was about to get married become dull?
"What?" Yun Yichen asked blankly. He hadn't figured out how to treat his wife yet! His dream was ruthlessly shattered by his own sister before it even began.
"Did Ping'an's brother beat you up when he got there? I bet he must have looked unhappy. I really want to know what Ping'an's expression was when he heard the news!" If Yun Ruonan hadn't been worried about the Xiao family's old man's bad temper and was afraid of being affected by it, she would have packed up and moved in with them for a while. Her best friend had become her sister-in-law, and she was eager to see Ping'an and Ruyi's reactions.
She didn't want to know at all. Yun Yichen understood that the little girl didn't have him in her heart at all. If the old man didn't agree, she would just shake her head and refuse without any hesitation.
After listening to her husband's story, Yin Qianhua cast a sympathetic gaze at her son. "You could have chosen any other girl, but you chose the most difficult one. You've made promises and even given away your personal belongings, but you still can't impress your father-in-law. You're truly pathetic, son."
Tong Mingyu nags for a full quarter of an hour before stopping. The father and son are still in the mood to drink tea outside, not realizing they're still waiting for the results at home? Seeing his mother's expression turn off, Xiao Yi makes an excuse and slips away, leaving Xiao Jingkang helpless, yet reluctant to lose his temper. It was his fault first!
"Come, have a cup of tea to moisten your throat." Taking advantage of the time when Tong Mingyu sat down to rest, Xiao Jingkang diligently poured a cup of tea and handed it to her. Talking non-stop is also physically demanding, and his wife in the whole family can only complain to him a few words, and he just has to endure it.
"How did your talk with King Jing go?" Tong Mingyu asked after calming down his anger.
The fact that his wife still remembered the important matter meant that she was not very angry. Xiao Jingkang felt relieved and told her in detail what had happened a few hours ago.
After hearing about Yun Yichen's promise and actions, Tong Mingyu decided on this son-in-law in her heart. She planned to do her best to promote this marriage because she believed that Yun Yichen could do what he said and would not let her down.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the old marquis' birthday was getting closer and closer, and Princess Xiyue's due date was also approaching. The part of the dress that Yun Yichen asked Xiao Yao to make that could be handed over to others had been completed, and the rest had to be done by herself.
Xiao Yao sorted out her thoughts and decided to finish her grandfather's portrait first. While helping her fourth uncle and aunt look after the Princess's Mansion, she would start embroidering the cuffs and collar of the dress. But where should she put the dress?
If my family found out, I would have to explain myself to them. The most important thing was, would anyone believe me? How could I explain the Xie siblings' affairs? What if something else came up, like Yun Yichen hugging me? My family would probably faint!
Xiao Yao didn't go through the main gate to the Princess's Mansion. She went through the back corner door of her house and just crossed a sidewalk to reach her fourth uncle's house. It didn't take Yun Yichen a few days to obtain information about her route and departure time.
Because they lived so close, she was accompanied by two maids every day. A few days ago, Xiao Yuan would also follow her, but recently Yuan Yutong watched her very closely, fearing that her impulsiveness would disturb Princess Xiyue, who was about to give birth. So during this period, only Xiao Yao went out alone.
That day, she went out with Xiaofu and Xiaohui as usual. Ever since knowing Yun Yichen's thoughts, Xiao Yi sent someone to secretly protect his sister. That person only stood in the corner and hid when he saw Xiao Yao entering the Princess' Mansion.
Xiao Yao had just stepped out of her corner door when several men suddenly descended from the sky. Before the master and servant could react, they simultaneously attacked the two maids and the guard hidden nearby. Xiao Hui and the others could only watch as Yun Yichen approached their mistress, unable to even move a finger.
"What did you do to them?" Seeing Yun Yichen walking towards her, Xiao Yao was not as panicked as before. Although she didn't know what he wanted to do, one thing was certain, that is, Xiaohui and the others would not be in danger of their lives, they just couldn't move for the time being.
"Let me talk to you for a few minutes." Yun Yichen looked at Xiao Yao greedily. Every time they met, she changed a little, becoming more and more like a grown-up woman. Her body had grown, but her mind hadn't. Others already saw her as a potential marriage prospect, but she only wanted to enjoy life and spend time with her family. Those "wrong" thoughts hadn't developed at all.
"Well! Speak." After saying that, he quickly let the man go. Xiao Yao turned her head to look at the guard she had never seen before, and couldn't help but complain in her heart, Yun Yichen also catches the wrong person sometimes, the person in front of her is not even known to her!
"Ahem" Yun Yichen glared at his tactless subordinates. The little girl's attention is now attracted by that man. She has become the background. Can't you move him away? It's an eyesore, don't you know?
Seeing that Xiao Yao was determined to get to the bottom of the matter, Yun Yichen and the others walked away before speaking: "This man is your second brother's subordinate. He is specifically here to protect you."
There is such a thing. Yun Yichen's figure is clearly reflected in Xiao Yao's big eyes like autumn water. Yun Yichen really wants to live there forever and never come out.
"Don't let anyone else touch that dress. You have to finish the rest by yourself. If you let another embroiderer touch it again, I will tell your parents that you are embroidering your own wedding dress." Yun Yichen stood beside Xiao Yao and said as he smelled the faint fragrance coming from her.
"I..." Xiao Yao had never thought that Yun Yichen was such a rogue person, but after thinking about it carefully, she was indeed the one who violated the contract first. What should she do? Just bear with it for a while!
"I understand." She did not defend herself. She was wrong in the first place. Making excuses would only make her look more guilty. Sometimes saying nothing was the best explanation.
This girl is very good at judging the situation. She always finds ways to avoid the punishment she wants to avoid, making people reluctant to pursue the matter and ending it hastily.
"I have things to do. Look at them..." Xiao Yao looked towards a large tree. After all, helping the maids untie their genitals was the most important thing. Wasn't this person looking for her just to talk about the dress? She was almost done with her work, so she'd start embroidering the edges first. After her third brother got married, she'd ask for a vacation and take the dress to the hot spring villa for a while. Would she still be worried about not being able to catch up by then?
Can't we just chat for a few more minutes? "What a heartless little girl," Yun Yi muttered to himself several times. Even though he felt a thousand times reluctant, he still made way.
Xiao Yao waited for her maid at the gate of the Princess's Mansion. As for the other person… before she could say anything, Yun Yichen approached the man, gave him a few words of warning, and then let him go. All this happened in just a short time. The moment Xiao Yao entered the Princess's Mansion, she began to doubt whether she had just dreamed.
To prove it wasn't a dream, Xiao Yao pushed open the princess's door and looked back. Yun Yichen was still standing where he was, seemingly unmoved. Their eyes met in mid-air, and Yun Yichen curled his lips, revealing four perfectly white teeth.
It turned out that he could laugh. Xiao Yao was a little dumbfounded. What she didn't notice was that two blushes quietly appeared on her face, making her even more charming.
My little girl can also be shy! Yun Yichen's four teeth have expanded to eight. Xiao Yao suddenly felt her heart beating very fast. She hurriedly lowered her head and hid in the Princess's Mansion.
Yun Yichen, who had just felt regretful, felt fulfilled in an instant. Today was the first time he saw Xiao Yao shy. Did that prove that he was different from others in her heart?
The sky became bluer, the wind became gentler, and even the air he breathed seemed to have a hint of sweetness. Yun Yichen took a last look at the place where his sweetheart disappeared, and walked out of the alley with light steps.
After walking a long way, he remembered that he still had questions to ask, such as what happened at her fourth uncle's house that a little girl like her had to go there every day. If she took two more people with her when she went out, preferably maids who knew some martial arts, wouldn't she be in great danger if it wasn't him today?
Oh! As soon as I saw her, I forgot everything. My mind went blank and I couldn't remember anything.
"Brother, I asked you to find someone to help me deliver a letter to Ping An. Has it arrived yet?" Yun Yichen heard his sister's voice as soon as he returned to the palace.
"Ugh!" Yun Yichen touched the letter that was still lying safely in his arms and said to himself, "Oh no!"
Zhao Hai and Tang Qianli didn't know where to look. When their master left home this morning, the princess had repeatedly warned him not to forget the letter. They both thought the letter had been sent while they were talking, but the truth was...
The master had fallen into Miss Xiao's hands. He had originally gone out to settle the score, but Miss Xiao had just said a few words to the master, making him lose his temper. He barely even asked the right questions, and other than a silly smile (which seemed impolite to the master), he hadn't done anything meaningful.
"Didn't she send it? I have something very important to ask her." Yun Ruonan walked quickly towards her brother.
"I... I'll send someone to deliver it to you right now." Yun Yichen winked at Xiao Anzi and quickly came over to help!
That letter was very important. It asked about the recipe of meatballs. Yun Ruonan and her kitten loved to eat them. If they didn't get the answer, it might cost someone's life or the cat's life.
