And all the resentnt, all the bitterness, it’s all gone.
With Mrs. Han’s return now, it seems likely because Yun Jinnian is about to co of age. After she cos of age, she is to marry. Mrs. Han probably returned to ensure Yun Jinnian’s marriage would be legitimate and appropriate.
"Let’s see. If she sends soone to summon you, you don’t need to go!"
Aunt Xi’s face lit up with joy and she asked again, "If it’s the Madam, the Madam..."
"Are you afraid she’ll reprimand you?" Yun Qi asked nonchalantly.
"No, I’m afraid of not knowing proper etiquette, annoying her!"
"Don’t worry. With here, she won’t and doesn’t dare to do anything to you!"
Hearing this, Aunt Xi was completely relieved.
What about the proper wife? When she has a child, the Master would surely dismiss Mrs. Han and elevate Aunt Xi to be the proper wife.
"I will listen to what Second Master says!"
Yun Qi glanced at Aunt Xi and continued drinking his wine without saying another word.
The next day, Yun Jinnian sent dicinal herbs to Yun Zhen, Yun Yi, and Yun Xuan, each a piece of ginseng over fifty years old. Whether or not it’s valuable doesn’t matter.
What matters is the sentint behind it.
The three brothers, Yun Zhen, Yun Yi, and Yun Xuan, looked at the ginseng Yun Jinnian had sent and remained silent for a long ti.
Yun Jinnian did not expect that Zhou Yunshen would send Teng Fei to the Yun Residence.
"Princess Yijia!"
"Guard Teng, why are you here?"
Teng Fei imdiately bowed and said, "Reporting to the Commandery Princess, my lord is unwell and requests Princess Yijia to follow to see him, would that be alright?"
"Is it serious?" Yun Jinnian asked lightly.
"It’s quite serious. Once the Commandery Princess sees for herself, she will understand!"
Yun Jinnian remained silent.
After hesitating for a mont, she said, "Wait a mont, I will let Hei go back to get the dicine chest!"
"Commandery Princess, the carriage is already prepared. You don’t need to prepare your own. After my lord’s illness is addressed, I will escort you back!"
"Mhm!"
Yun Jinnian responded lightly.
She still trusted Zhou Yunshen to be a gentleman who wouldn’t force her or act rashly.
But one can never be too careful.
Once Hei returned with the dicine chest, Yun Jinnian followed Teng Fei out of the Yun Residence.
Teng Fei’s carriage was very opulent. Once inside, it was extrely luxurious.
This should be the carriage Zhou Yunshen usually rides!
Why use it to fetch her? What does it an?
They arrived at Zhou Yunshen’s residence in Tianchu Country.
Yun Jinnian got off the carriage and was invited in by Teng Fei.
"This house was bought by my master, with so modifications made!"
"It’s quite good!"
Teng Fei smiled.
He led Yun Jinnian into the main courtyard.
Zhou Yunshen, dressed in white, stood in the courtyard, smiling warmly at Yun Jinnian.
Yun Jinnian looked at Zhou Yunshen and gave a polite smile, "I don’t know if I should address you as Crown Prince or Mr. Zhou?"
"It doesn’t matter if you call Mr. Zhou or Crown Prince. To you, I’m just a stranger. If you don’t mind, you can call Brother Zhou!" Zhou Yunshen remained gentle and elegant.
But his eyes were depthless, like a deep abyss.
Yun Jinnian gave a warm smile, "It’s my honor, Brother Zhou!"
"Please, co inside!"
"After you!"
Looking at Zhou Yunshen’s deanor, Yun Jinnian realized he wasn’t actually ill.
Once inside the small chamber, Zhou Yunshen invited Yun Jinnian to sit, and a maid served tea.
"Please!"
"Thank you!"
Yun Jinnian took a sip of tea and set the cup down.
Then Zhou Yunshen said, "Actually, the reason I invited you today isn’t because I’m ill. It’s my master who is ill. Many doctors have been unable to help, so I took the liberty of inviting you."
"Your master?"
"Indeed, he is the forr Pri Minister of the Great Zhou Kingdom and a renowned scholar, Dou Chengshan. Have you heard of him?" Zhou Yunshen asked quietly.
Yun Jinnian shook her head and replied earnestly, "I have not!"
