Chu Yu looked at Yuwen Ya and after so thought, said, "I believe she can!"
A simple sentence, "I believe her."
Chu Yu would not say more than necessary, after all, he didn’t wish to reveal Yun Jinnian’s strengths to Yuwen Ya; if Yuwen Ya took an interest in Yun Jinnian, that would be disastrous.
He certainly wouldn’t do sothing as foolish as lifting a rock only to drop it on his own foot.
After escorting Yun Jinnian to the Yun Residence’s entrance and seeing her enter the gates with Han Tianci, Hei, and Henuan, carrying several bags, Chu Yu, Yuwen Ya, and Nanny Song departed.
Chu Yu had to return to the Prince Rui Residence, while Yuwen Ya and Nanny Song were headed back to the Princess Residence, hence they bid their farewells and separated.
First, Yun Jinnian took Han Tianci to the Qiyue Academy to speak with Mrs. Han for a while.
Seeing Yun Jinnian’s tired expression, Mrs. Han imdiately sent the two children back to Niannian Garden.
"Ah!"
A light sigh.
Back at Niannian Garden, Mrs. Yuan had already prepared hot water, and the siblings took a warm bath.
Han Tianci then started practicing martial arts in the courtyard. Hei and Henuan, on a whim, exchanged a few moves with him, only to discover that Han Tianci’s martial arts skills far surpassed theirs.
They secretly vowed to practice diligently.
Yun Jinnian, anwhile, sat on the chaise longue, leaning against a soft pillow, intently reading books from Nanjiang, while Mrs. Yuan joyfully sorted through the items Yun Jinnian had brought back.
Originally Han Tianci wasn’t ant to receive anything, but upon finding out he was Yun Jinnian’s cousin, the Marchionesses discreetly added a portion for him.
And where would Han Tianci have the need for those items? He gave them all to Yun Jinnian.
"Oh my, this bracelet is nice, so bright and lustrous!" Mrs. Yuan admired as she tried it on her wrist, "It’s too youthful for !"
Then she carefully put it back.
She had Ru Yue take note,
Ru Yue’s handwriting was not great, but her drawings were fine. When taking inventory, she would simply sketch the items so that Mrs. Yuan, who could not read, would understand what they were and what they looked like.
Yun Jinnian put down the book, walked over to the trunk, picked up the bracelet that Mrs. Yuan especially liked, and put it on Mrs. Yuan’s wrist, "It’s perfect for Nurse to wear this bracelet!"
"I’m too old to wear such a pretty bracelet..." Mrs. Yuan desired yet hesitated.
She was deeply conflicted.
"It’s beautiful!"
Upon hearing that, Mrs. Yuan asked, "Really beautiful?"
"Yes, extrely beautiful!"
Yun Jinnian nodded, very seriously.
Mrs. Yuan hesitated for a mont, then said, "Then I’ll accept it!"
"Yes!"
Yun Jinnian nodded.
She picked out a golden hairpin for Ru Yue, who quickly stood up to thank her, feeling extrely happy.
"Thank you, Miss!"
Ru Yue was a woman of few words, but she was conscientious and didn’t shirk her duties or indulge in trickery, and Yun Jinnian highly valued her!
She selected two jade hairpins for Mrs. Yuan to later give to Nanny An and Yaniang and also gave one golden hairpin each to Hei and Henuan.
"Miss, I will call them all over, it would be better for Miss to reward them personally," said Mrs. Yuan before hurrying out of the small hall, continuously touching the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Soon, Nanny An and the others had arrived, and Yun Jinnian rewarded each of them and received their thanks in turn.
Only then did Nanny An say, "Miss!"
"Hmm?"
"Today, this servant has received so news, but I’m not sure if it’s appropriate to speak of it," Nanny An hesitated, still uncertain of the information’s authenticity.
"Speak, what is it?"
After a mont of thought, Nanny An disclosed, "It’s like this: today a maid sold a piece of information, saying the Old Mada is planning to make a move against Miss. She advised Miss to be very cautious in her actions, especially to steer clear of any injured n, as helping them would be unwise!"
