Chapter 984: Chapter 982: The Eldest Miss Returns to the Mansion
Dayong Capital—Changxu.
A good horse knows its way ho, especially one with intelligence.
Little Zao carried Sally into Changxu City, heading towards the Yu Residence.
“Slow down, don’t bump into people,” Sally instructed Little Zao.
Little Zao snorted, and his speed slowed down imdiately.
Sally continued teaching Little Zhouzhou to speak, pointing out flowers and grass in the Human Realm, high city walls, the pedestrians coming and going along the roadside, and the items sold by street vendors…
Everything was new to Little Zhouzhou, who held his bottle with delight, babbling along with Sally all the way, sotis speaking incoherently, but Sally patiently corrected him again and again.
“Doggy~” Little Zhouzhou pointed at a yellow and white dog by the roadside, happily shouting.
Sally nodded, “That’s right, what’s next to the doggy?”
Little Zhouzhou thought for a mont and replied, “Stone lion!”
Sally snapped her fingers and praised, “Exactly right, Little Zhouzhou, that’s brilliant, a stone lion.”
Suddenly, Sally noticed a few old won pointing at her.
“…Isn’t that the Pri Minister’s Mansion’s eldest miss?”
“How do you know? This lady rarely leaves the mansion.”
“I worked a few days as a short-term worker at the Pri Minister’s Mansion and saw her once.”
“Why is she with a child?”
“If this child wasn’t three or four years old, I’d have thought he was her illegitimate child… Don’t ntion it, this kid looks unusually handso. Is it a girl?”
“No~” Sally rode up, smiling at the old won, “He’s a boy, and he’s not illegitimate, he’s my own! Son?”
“Mom!” Little Zhouzhou called out crisply.
“Good boy, here’s a reward.” Sally gave him a piece of jerky to grind his small teeth.
The old won were shocked when Sally rode up, catching them off guard, and their expressions varied as they froze.
“Wait, wasn’t the eldest miss of the Pri Minister’s Mansion mute? How is she speaking?”
“Could I have mistaken her? No, my eye is exceptional, once I see soone, I’ll never forget.”
“I’ll believe that, but she just spoke. Plus, that child is three or four years old, if the eldest miss of the Pri Minister’s Mansion, three or four years ago was only twelve or thirteen, how could she have a child.”
“Could I really have seen it wrong?”
“It might be possible.”
The old won watched Sally’s back as she hugged the child, chatting more excitedly, and other curious people gathered to inquire…
Little Zao stopped at the Pri Minister’s Mansion’s back door.
Sally thought for a mont and gently clamped Little Zao’s belly, “Let’s go to the main entrance.”
Little Zao quickly ran towards the main entrance of the Pri Minister’s Mansion.
When she arrived at the front door, Sally saw Yu Chu personally escorting a young man out, who was elegantly handso, wearing a luxurious, noble robe.
The young man heard the sound of horse hooves and looked toward Sally.
Under the backlighting, Sally appeared aloof and distant, as if a deity looking down on everyone… the young man’s lazy gaze turned playful, even scrutinizing the Little Zhouzhou in her arms.
Yu Chu also looked over, but he imdiately darkened his face, angrily said, “Rebellious girl! You still know to co back!”
Sally ignored him, holding Little Zhouzhou in one hand and supporting the horse’s back with the other, she swiftly leapt down, “Little Zao, you know where the stable is, go eat by yourself.”
Little Zao snorted and, under everyone’s gaze, specially walked through the main gate, heading towards the stables.
Sally holding Little Zhouzhou also directly intended to enter the door.
“Stop!” A surprised expression appeared in Yu Chu’s eyes, how was his daughter able to speak!
But upon reflection, this daughter could speak before, it was only after he married Mrs. Fang that she gradually stopped speaking, even allowing herself to be called mute…
Sally paused, slightly turned her head and chuckled, a cold disdain naturally arose within her smile, “Oh?”
Yu Chu felt uneasy under her gaze, “The child you’re holding, who is it?”
Sally replied, “My son, my own!”
“You! You speak nonsense! Don’t ruin the reputation of the Yu Residence!” The child is so big, and Yu Bei Qiu is only sixteen, how could she have a child!
The most important thing is, she hasn’t even been betrothed!
“I’m telling the truth.” Sally said to Little Zhouzhou, “Co on, son~”
“Mom~” Little Zhouzhou obediently called Sally.
“Children are least likely to deceive.” Sally said to Yu Chu.
Yu Chu was thunderstruck!
“But, there’s never been heard of Eldest Miss Yu getting married, this child…” The young man spoke.
Sally looked at him and replied, “Can’t have a child without being married?”
“Do not be disrespectful to His Highness.” Yu Chu scolded.
Then respectfully bowed to the young man, “My young daughter lost her mother young, has been eccentric and rebellious, please, Your Highness, do not bla her, this child cannot be hers, there must be other circumstances.”
“Your Highness?” Sally contemplated, “You’re Prince Cheng Xiheng, the only son of Emperor Dayong?”
Yu Bei Qiu’s mother, Mrs. Zhang, was the Queen of Dayong’s apprentice sister. Both were disciples in the sa sect at Yuquan Palace, practicing Immortal Law, married one after another, and agreed to beco in-laws with each other’s children.
After Mrs. Zhang died in childbirth, the Queen still kept her promise, sending a Jade Ruyi, symbolizing betrothal, to the Pri Minister’s Mansion.
However, that Jade Ruyi is currently in Yu Shenghuan’s possession, making it clear who would marry into Prince Cheng’s Mansion in the future.
“Heh~” Sally sneered, “I advise you to find another suitable wife.”
After she said that, she walked straight into the mansion’s door, her overly slender waist and back straightened, her presence overwhelmingly arrogant.
Xiheng raised his lips into a slightly aningful smile, “Pri Minister, the Jade Ruyi sent by Mother to the Pri Minister’s Mansion is in her hands?”
“That certainly isn’t true! Don’t worry, Your Highness! I know what to do.” Yu Chu’s forehead showed a slight cold sweat.
…
Sally held Little Zhouzhou, returning to Yu Bei Qiu’s residence—Qiuyuan, the most secluded small courtyard in the Pri Minister’s Mansion, under the astonished or shocked gazes of the servants.
The simple courtyard, originally ant for growing flowers and grasses, was planted with vegetables, making clear what kind of life she lived.
Still, the entire small courtyard was tidily cleaned.
[Xiaoi, bring the stroller.]
[Yes, Host.]
A beautiful, luxurious stroller appeared in the courtyard.
Sally placed Little Zhouzhou into the stroller and gave him a bottle of milk, “Drink it all up, then sleep by yourself.”
“Hmm!” Little Zhouzhou imdiately lay down and drank his milk.
After finishing it, the little one fell asleep.
Sally pulled down the veil atop the stroller, ensuring he slept more peacefully.
[Host, soone is coming.] Xiaoi alerted Sally.
[I’ve been waiting for them.]
Before long, Sally heard a lot of disorderly footsteps approaching.
She had Xiaoi put Little Zhouzhou into the System Space first. A baby’s sleeping ti is also when they grow, it must not be disturbed.
Yu Chu, accompanied by his second wife, Mrs. Fang, arrived, followed by six servants, one of whom was holding a square brocade box.
