Chapter 188
At the same time, Xia Yuqing, who didn’t know her popularity had once again helped her become more hated, was on her way back to the Wei mansion.
A cold wind passed by and she sneezed. The person nearby looked over with a little worry, “You have a cold?”
“It shouldn’t be a cold, maybe someone is thinking of me.” Xia Yuqing rubbed her itchy nose and murmured.
Feng Tingye raised his eyebrows and his eyes sank slightly. When he was about to say something, he heard a low chuckle above his head: “I think some person didn’t know how to restrain themselves last night and tired you out. Junior Sister, is that right?”
“This voice is... ...” Xia Yuqing was stunned and looked up. She saw a person sitting on the roof of their carriage in an unusually seductive posture, looking at them with a smile but not a smile.
“Third Senior Brother!” Before Xia Yuqing’s words fell, a long sword swiftly pierced towards the roof of the carriage.
Hua Nongying’s figure swayed to the side, dexterously avoiding Feng Tingye’s long sword. Then, he quickly stepped on the railing on the side, and said with a chuckle: “It seems that younger brother-in-law is not in a good mood. To be on the safe side, this Senior Brother should wait until younger brother-in-law feels better before coming to see you. See you later.”
“...” So, Third Brother, what are you doing here?
Xia Yuqing watched Hua Nongying with a speechless face as he disappeared in front of her in a hurry. When her head turned again, she heard Feng Tingye remind her in a low voice: “We’re here.”
“So soon?” Xia Yuqing couldn’t wait to open the curtain. At a glance, she saw the lavish plaque of the Wei Mansion.
Wow, hahaha, this Laozi is back! Xia Yuqing leaned on the front of the carriage door. If she hadn’t taken into account her own image, she would have put her hands on her hips and laughed in front of the gate of Wei Mansion.
“Uuuuuu...” As soon as Xia Yuqing and Feng Tingye walked into the courtyard where they lived, they saw a ball that looked like a small cannonball rolling towards them...Cough cough, that’s not right, it rushed over and plunged into Xia Yuqing’s arms.
“Woo... Mother, Royal Mother, baby missed Mother so much. Mother and Father did not take baby out to play, so bad!” Second Baby held Xia Yuqing’s calf, and whispered with tears and snot running down. That pitiful appearance made everyone on the side want to step forward and pinch her.
“Dun Dun?” Xia Yuqing screamed as she looked down at Second Baby who she hadn’t seen for half a month. She had become round.
Good god, how long has it been? How did she turn out like this? Is the food in the Wei mansion better than the palace? Moreover, with the appetite of her Second Baby, to turn her into such a soft appearance, this Wei Mansion... is not going to fall, right? ! (as in run out of money)
Second Baby was even more aggrieved when she heard Xia Yuqing’s tentative call. She looked up at Xia Yuqing with tearful eyes. Her mouth collapsed. Xia Yuqing could tell that there was going to be a flood of tears when suddenly an anxious cry came from not far away: “Dear, dear, baby, where did you go?”
Xia Yuqing looked up and saw a lady of the same age as Zhang Sunshi rushing over from the courtyard gate. The girls on the side carefully supporting her said anxiously: “Madam, please slow down. Miss Sun should have just ran to the front yard and Young Master Sun will follow, so she won’t be lost.”
“That can’t be said, my dear. Being born so cute, what should I do if they accidentally run into the businessmen in this mansion? When those profiteers see my baby being born so cute, they will definitely have some evil thoughts and carry my baby home.”
“...” Madam, are you thinking too much? In this large crowd, who would be bold and daring enough to take your heart and flesh away!?
“Grandma Wei, baby is here.” Second Baby quickly collected the tears from her eyes, and turned her head and shouted to Mrs. Wei who was not far away.
As soon as Mrs. Wei heard baby’s voice, she immediately glanced over. Seeing Second Baby under Xia Yuqing’s legs, her eyes lit up. She let go of the maid that held her hand and rushed towards Second Baby.
Without paying attention to the people standing on the side, she picked up Second Baby and kissed her wildly. She kept muttering: “My little baby, you really scared me to death. Grandma turned her head and you were gone. Grandma thought you were caught by a bad guy. Don’t do that again next time, do you understand?”
“Grandma?” Xia Yuqing looked surprised at the woman holding her Second Baby in an excited manner. She turned her head to Feng Tingye. The expression seemed to be asking Feng Tingye, when did you have another mother? Why didn’t I know?
Feng Tingye narrowed his eyes, his face slightly sunk. Looking down at Big Baby who was quietly standing on the edge of the scene from the beginning, he whispered: “What is this?”
Big Baby seeing Mrs. Wei holding Second Baby and madly kissing her, the corners of his mouth twitched. He stepped back to Xia Yuqing’s side without a trace: “Can’t Mother and Father see? That Grandma is the madam of this mansion. She seems to have mistakenly thought that we are the children of her godson, so these days, she has been raising my sister and me as her grandchildren. ”
“Madam of Wei Mansion? Is that Uncle Wei’s wife... Aunt Wei? Aunt Wei’s godson seems to be... Xiao Shangshu.
Aunt Wei, do you think Dudu and Dundun are the children of Xiao Shangshu? No wonder... She would call Dun Dun her little baby and be so nervous about her. But...something seems wrong?
Xia Yuqing thought for a moment, then she suddenly asked: “Isn’t Mrs. Wei suspicious? Xiao Shangshu hasn’t married a wife yet, where could these two children come from?”
“Why would she be suspicious? Mother, this grandma seems to have taken Aunt Yan as our Mother.” Eldest Baby glanced at Mrs. Wei who was still holding Second Baby not far away, and said in a low voice.
“What?” Xiao Shangshu and Miss Yan? ! Pu... They got together?? How did she not know?! During the time when she was trapped in the princess mansion, did she miss out on the show? !
“Grandma, Baby and Brother are all right, we came out to find...” Second Baby was held by Mrs. Wei for a long time before she had time to answer. Before she finished speaking, she heard a soft cough.
Second Baby’s big eyes rolled and she saw Xia Yuqing winking at her vigorously on the side. Her little head tilted and she blinked in suspicion.
Mrs. Wei, who has been supporting Second Baby, naturally noticed this. She raised her head and glanced at the two youngsters she had never met before, frowning: “You two are...”
Xia Yuqing looked at Mrs. Wei’s vigilant look. It was an expression one had towards a trafficker who was abducting children. She was helpless and embarrassed: “Um, we are a...a friend of Mr. Shao. I heard that Mr. Shao came back, so I came to see him.”
“Oh, really? I have not heard Xiao Tangtang mention this.” The old madam made a “Just because I don’t read much, do not lie to me” look. She looked Xia Yuqing and Feng Ting Ye up and down for a while. There was still some disbelief.
“...” Xia Yuqing couldn’t help rolling her eyes to the sky when she saw this. She secretly complained in her heart. Old lady, we are really not human traffickers! The one in your arms is actually ours. Why would we steal her!?
“We have known Zitang for many years, but because we have been traveling all year round and rarely have reunions, Zitang has never mentioned it to this madam. So it is not a strange matter.” Feng Tingye saw that Xia Yuqing was embarrassed and didn’t know how to answer, so he couldn’t help but smile and step forward for her relief.
“Really?” Madam Wei was still a little unbelieving. She was just about to ask a few more words, when a familiar voice could be heard behind her.
“Foster Mother!” Shao Zitang, Yun Zhongyue and the others walked over from a short distance. Intending to go out to meet Xia Yuqing, they didn’t expect Xia Yuqing to arrive at the mansion earlier than expected.
As soon as he saw the scene in front of him, Shao Zitang, who knew Mrs. Wei’s temperament, immediately seemed to understand something. He quickly stepped forward: “Foster Mother, these two are my friends, Wei Ming and...Wei Yue. They just happened to come to Shu to do business recently. They heard that I was here, so they came to look for me specially.”
Mrs. Wei was taken aback. She looked at Shao Zitang, then turned to look at Xia Yuqing, the other two: “It turns out to be Xiao Tangtang’s friends. I’m sorry I was rude just now.”
“Pu...it’s okay, it’s okay. It was too presumptuous of us to come over suddenly.” Xia Yuqing couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Shao Zitang’s nickname again. She thought that only the Gorgeous Grand Tutor would call Shao Zitang by this nickname, but she didn’t expect...
Shao Zitang was embarrassed and angry. After Xia Yuqing glanced at him, he murmured a little in protest: “...Foster Mother, can you stop calling me...that name.”
To Yan Ran, Shao Zitang can do it without any mercy, but the person in front of him was an elder. Although Shao Zitang was arrogant, he still respected his elders. This can be seen in the fact that when Zhang Sunshi protected Xia Yuqing at that time, although he was angry, he was helpless. Therefore, Mrs. Wei calling him such a shameful name in front of so many people at this time, Shao Zitang felt ashamed and helpless, yet he did not dare to give rise to his irritation.
Of course, Shao Zitang’s protest won’t do anything at all. Mrs. Wei looked at Shao Zitang’s embarrassed expression and smiled more brilliantly: “Xiao Tangtang, are you shy? What’s so embarrassing? There are no outsiders here and these friends who came by don’t seem to mind.”
“Don’t mind, don’t mind, pu......” Xia Yuqing was amused by Shao Zitang’s deflated appearance. Lying on Feng Ting Ye’s shoulders, she squeezed him hard as her whole body shook.
“Foster mother!”
“Alright, I’ll stop teasing you. It’s time for my little baby to eat. Zitang, you take Tingfang to greet your friend and sit down. I will take the two children to eat.” Madam Wei seeing Shao Zitang get a little anxious, she smiled.
Standing behind Shao Zitang to meet Xia Yuqing, Yan Tingfang’s face was slightly red when she heard that comment. She wanted to explain, but she didn’t know what to say.
Shao Zitang was also a little embarrassed, but he knew that it was not a good time to explain, so he simply replied, “Yes.”
Second Baby finally saw Xia Yuqing, but before she could say a few words, she was going to be separated again? Startled, she stretched out her hand pitifully toward Xia Yuqing.
“Uuuuu...”
“...”
“Oh, baby, why are you crying? Do you want to play with this uncle? Be good, Uncle needs to do something, let’s go eat first. Wait until Father and Uncle finish the task, then we can come and play with them again.” When Mrs. Wei saw Second Baby crying, she immediately hugged Second Baby and soothed in a low voice.
“Yes, Baby, some of our uncles still have things to work on. We can play with them after we are done?”
“But...” Second Baby stopped crying and looked at Xia Yuqing aggrievedly. The flood was about to overflow. Mrs. Wei hurriedly coaxed: “Baby, don’t bother uncle. Grandma asked the kitchen to make your favorite stew for you. The stew is soft and the fragrance is delicious. Also just for you, I had your favourite pigeon porridge stewed since the morning. It must be ready now.”
Second Baby was taken aback. She looked up at Mrs. Wei and replied: “What about the little sugar cake?”
“There are also some of that. “
“What about the fragrant taro cake?”
“Done and done.”
“The osmanthus cake?”
“There are some of that too.”
Second Baby cheered and hugged Mrs. Wei’s neck, halting her tears. She smiled: “Mmm, baby and Grandma Wei will go to eat delicious food.”
Rumble—Xia Yuqing felt lightning hitting her head. Baby, you were stolen by just a few delicious foods in front of your Mother? Is this really good? Is your Mother less important than those delicious things in your heart? Xia Yuqing squatted to the side and started to draw circles.
“...” Shao Zitang and the others looked at Xia Yuqing’s appearance that was covered by dark clouds. A drop of cold sweat fell on the back of their heads.
“It seems that this child likes Young Master Wei very much.” Madam Wei coaxed her Second Baby and turned her head and smiled at Xia Yuqing.
“...” She was born by me. If she doesn’t like me, it would be a big deal!
Xia Yuqing reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth into a smile, “Yes, this child is so cute, I really like her.”
An elder would never be upset to hear others praise her children, Mrs. Wei was no exception.
After hearing Xia Yuqing’s words, Mrs. Wei smiled more and more happily: “It’s getting late, I’ll take the children to eat first. Later, I will let the baby play with you.”
“...Okay.” Xia Yuqing’s small face stiffly watched Second Baby’s back, not knowing whether she should be happy or worried.
The happy thing is that her own baby is indeed invincible and can attract a bunch of people to treasure her everywhere. What is worrisome is that her Second Baby is a foodie. She was afraid that a candy gourd could be used to abduct someone in the future!
Xia Yuqing let out a long sigh. She finally knew how it was only half a month later, and Second Baby was made into a circle again. With such an old lady indulging her to eat whatever she wanted, it would be weird if she didn’t grow fat!
As soon as Second Baby left, Big Baby ran away without any suspense. Before leaving, Big Baby was still like a little adult and told Xia Yuqing with a serious face: “Mother, during the time when you and Father were away, this son and younger sister not only ate more deliciously, but also didn’t hear any disturbances at night, so we slept more soundly. So for the better growth of your son and daughter, Father, you should take Mother out to play outside more often.”
“...” This d*mn brat! Is this what a child should say to their parents who have been away from home for a long time and finally meet again? !
Xia Yuqing was hurt twice in a row. Her whole body was depressed. The excitement of returning to Wei Mansion finally disappeared.
Compared to Xia Yuqing’s speechless choking, Shao Zitang and the others were slightly relieved to watch Mrs. Wei leave.
“Where is Yun Xi and Lan Yingran?” Feng Tingye asked in a low voice just now when he saw that the others were almost gone.
“Yes, yes, where’s Cui Er?”
“Xi Er and Master Lan are both waiting in the inner room. As for Miss Cui Er... she seems to have gone out.” Yan Tingfang replied aloud when she saw the two of them asking.
“Gone out for errands? That’s rare.” This is the first time since Xia Yuqing transmigrated that Cui Er went out alone without her by her side. Even when she was kidnapped last time, Cui Er had been following her closely. It must be something urgent for her to go out at this time, Xia Yuqing thought.
Yan Tingfang looked at Xia Yuqing’s thoughtful face as she pursed her lips. She felt a little guilty: “I’m really sorry about that day. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t...”
“Oh, then we’re even.”
“Huh?” Yan Tingfang was taken aback. For a while, she didn’t quite understand what Xia Yuqing meant.
Xia Yuqing smiled, “Hey, you also helped me a lot when I was in the brothel that day. This time it made us even, you don’t have to feel guilty. We also got a lot of information in the princess mansion. Moreover, I entered the palace smoothly because of this. If you really want to say sorry to someone, then go say that to my Senior Brother. After all, to save you that day, my Senior Brother was hurt. Quite extremely too.”
Speaking of this, Xia Yuqing suddenly remembered that since she entered the princess mansion, except for the first time Second Brother appeared and talked about Senior Brother, there has been no news of Senior Brother since. Since it’s rare to come back, should she go visit him?
As soon as this idea came up, it was quickly extinguished by Xia Yuqing. Forget it. What should she say after seeing Senior Brother. Is it possible to ask him...her Senior Brother, if his PP is okay?
Xia Yuqing was thundered by her own conjecture, and raised her head: “Where is Xiao Xi? We came back to look for her specifically for something.”
“Xiao Xi and Master Lan are already waiting for you in the inner courtyard.” Yun Zhongyue reminded her loudly.
Xia Yuqing nodded. She couldn’t wait to pull Yun Zhong Yue towards the inside and rush in, leaving Yan Tingfang frozen in place.
After a while, she turned her head to look at Feng Tingye who was still standing there. She asked tentatively, “You...don’t care?”
Feng Tingye raised his eyebrows. His slightly squinted eyes created a sense of danger. This was the majestic pressure he had never shown before Xia Yuqing. Yan Tingfang was taken aback by his sudden aura and was caught off guard. She took two steps back.
“No, Zhen is very concerned.”
Yan Tingfang’s face was pale. Her eyes widened as she looked up at Feng Tingye. She instinctively felt a chill from behind: “That...”
Feng Tingye smiled coldly: “You should be thankful. This time you didn’t cause any major troubles to involve people who shouldn’t be involved, otherwise...”
Yan Tingfang trembled and took two steps backwards. Her little face was as pale as a white paper. She stared blankly at Feng Tingye. For the second time in so many years, she experienced a similar horror of being chased by the eldest princess. Yan Tingfang couldn’t imagine that it would be derived from this young man who hadn’t attracted much attention since he came to the kingdom of Shu.
No, maybe it is precisely because this person knew that he was different, so he would deliberately dress himself up into something ordinary to conceal his own nature. This would make people think of him as an ordinary... person. However, no matter how concealed something is, if it exists, it exists. So when the time comes, it will still be revealed naturally, shocking the people around, such as...now.
Feng Tingye forced the blood on Yan Tingfang’s face to disappear, then faintly withdrew his pressure. He sneered: “However, since Ai Fei has said that, this time I will not pursue it. But if there is a second time, if you want to die, you can find a secluded place by yourself and hang yourself. There’s just one thing. Don’t drag people who shouldn’t be dragged into the water. The consequences...you can’t afford it.”
Yan Tingfang staggered back two steps. Fortunately, Shao Zitang helped her by the side. At that moment, she really felt that the man in front of her had really moved to kill. Yan Tingfang had no doubt that if Xia Yuqing had a hair injured that day, this man would definitely let herself be covered in blood on the spot today. No, maybe more terrifying than that...
Feng Tingye was very satisfied with Yan Tingfang’s performance at this moment. If at first he had some sympathy for this woman, now this sympathy has been completely wiped out by the previous incident. He doesn’t care what kind of blood and deep hatred this woman had. The ones who owe her are the ones who destroyed her family, not him. Regardless of her reasons, she dragged them into the water and acted irresponsibly without authorization. This almost got his pet involved. This kind of thing... is simply unbearable!
Feng Tingye squinted slightly and looked at Yan Tingfang and Shao Zitang standing side by side. He snorted coldly, “Zitang, look after your person.”
Shao Zitang froze for a moment. His face when it finally responded was black. D*mn, why is she my person? ! No matter how these people like to throw together random affectionate couples, I already said it is a misunderstanding!
In the end, if it hadn’t been for Feng Tingye asking him to bring this girl back that night and because his head became somehow hot, he wouldn’t have caused this girl to cry. Unwilling to make the girl miserable and because the wind was strong at night, to show a man’s demeanor, he took off one of his clothes and put it on this girl.
The most important thing is that when he returned to this mansion, out of all things to happen, it just so happened that his unreliable Foster Mother saw. Thus, the misunderstanding formed.
Shao Zitang originally thought that when Feng Tingye came back, this rumor would be debunked. As a result... The facts proved that he was still too naive! This rumor didn’t die at all. On the contrary, it became more and more intense. Now he didn’t know how to react.
Shao Zitang and Yan Tingfang were both stunned when they heard what Feng Tingye said. When they remembered to refute, Feng Tingye left without leaving dust behind, leaving the two of them staring at each other for a long time.
On the other side, Xia Yuqing grabbed Yun Zhongyue and rushed into the inner courtyard. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yun Xi’s round face.
“Xiao Xixi, I’m back...I’m... back.” Xia Yuqing stood still, then started to run, then she swooped... and rushed towards Yun Xi.
Yun Xi, who was knocked into, was dizzy for a moment. Even her big eyes became two mosquito coil eyes.
“Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi...” Xia Yuqing held Yun Xi’s waist and rubbed hard, rubbing and rubbing. She was trying to make up for the injuries suffered by the two children just now.
“Niang Niang, get up quickly, Xiao Xi is about to be crushed by you.” After a long while, Xia Yuqing heard a worried and concerned voice.
Xia Yuqing’s actions paused. She hurriedly let go of the hands that hugged Yun Xi.
When He Wenzhong saw Xia Yuqing let go, he immediately pulled Yun Xi over and patted her back smoothly.
“Cough cough cough... Qing Jiejie, the first thing you do when you come back is to try to kill me?!” Yun Xi coughed with red eyes, looking at Xia Yuqing pitifully, while complaining.
Xia Yuqing scratched her head in embarrassment and coughed, “Aren’t I just happy to see you?”
Yun Xi coughed for a long time before she became relieved. She looked up at Xia Yuqing and said: “Qing Jiejie, I heard from the Royal Uncle that you have been in the palace, how are my Father and Mother?”
“Oh, they are all okay, they can eat and drink, run and jump. They also asked me to tell you that they are all well, so you don’t have to worry about them.” Xia Yuqing waved her hand, then remembered the purpose of coming today, “By the way, Xiao Xi, the emperor and I came back today because there is something I need your help with. ”
“Huh?
