Chapter 430 Stay away from this woman
Yunyi rolled her eyes speechlessly. What a show-off! But she quickly put on a smile and said, "Greetings, Your Highness the Third Prince. Let me introduce you. This is my husband, Lao Xia. This is my daughter, Er Ya. This is my son, Qi Bao. And this is my brother-in-law, Chang Suo." She gestured and said, "Hurry up and pay your respects. This is the Third Prince."
"Greetings, Third Prince." Zhou Jinghan and Luo Yu hurriedly bowed, but being country folk, they didn't know proper etiquette, so their movements were somewhat awkward.
Zhou Jingxuan narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Zhou Jinghan: "What's your name?"
“This humble subject…” Zhou Jinghan looked at Yun Yi, and subconsciously shrank back a little.
Yunyi stepped in front of him and said, "Your Highness, this is my man. Please don't make things difficult for him."
Zhou Jingxuan frowned deeply: "Yunyi, you suffered before, but now that you're back, you..."
“Although I’m back, we’ve already consummated our marriage. He went missing in the mountains before, and I thought he was dead. But now that he’s back, I can’t deny it. If it weren’t for them, I would have died long ago. I can’t be ungrateful.”
Zhou Jingxuan wanted to say something, but Yunyi had already turned around and picked up Qibao: "Let's go, come home with Mom."
Qibao hugged Yunyi's neck tightly and made a face at the group of people.
"Sister-in-law." Luo Yu rubbed his hands together. "My brother has arrived, so I'll head back now. This donkey cart is still rented."
“Since you’re here, don’t rush. At least stay one night and have a meal. Then I’ll buy some things for Grandma to take back.” Yunyi waved her hand. “Come on.” She put Qibao in the car and then carried Erya into the car as well. Before closing the car door, she glanced at Fangtang and said, “Dad, we’ll go back first.”
Watching the carriage and donkey cart drive away, Fang Tang was so angry he almost fainted. Fortunately, Fang Zhong was there to support him, preventing him from falling.
Zhou Jingxuan's expression was also not good: "Lord, look at this..."
"Third Prince," Fang Tang took a few deep breaths, feeling less dizzy, before speaking, "Things have come to this point, I reckon our engagement can't continue."
"So, Your Excellency is willing to have a peasant as your son-in-law?"
“What can I do if I’m not reconciled? That girl…” Fang Tang didn’t want to admit it, but he had to admit it. “That girl is not the same as before. After she came back, she’s like a completely different person.”
If the investigation hadn't been so thorough, and if it hadn't been for the fact that the face hadn't changed much in just one year, he would have thought it was two different people.
“That’s because what she went through made her grow.” Zhou Jingxuan smiled. “Next month, Yunyi will be of marriageable age. We’ll make sure to give her a proper celebration. She’ll then understand who is good to her.”
Fang Tang frowned and stared at Zhou Jingxuan for a while before finally nodding: "I hope so."
Yunyi was disdainfully fiddling with the topknots on the two kids' heads: "Who did this to you?"
"Aunt Hong styled my hair, and Aunt Yuting painted my face." Er Ya also complained.
"They're practically begging you two to come and perform," Yunyi chuckled. "How's things at home?"
"Everyone is doing well." Er Ya, being older now, spoke in a serious tone. "They all miss you and even brought you gifts."
"It's good that you're here." Yunyi patted Er Ya's head. "Xiao Qi is still young, so you need to take good care of him."
"I know."
"I will listen to my second sister." Qibao nodded in agreement.
"Then remember this: once we get to the manor, besides me, Ah Lu, and Ah Zi, don't trust anyone else, and don't follow anyone or eat anything given to you by strangers, understand?"
"We know." The two kids nodded.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the Earl's residence.
Yunyi got out of the car with the two children and instructed Yunlu, "Go and buy them two sets of clothes."
Yunlu didn't enter the mansion; she left directly.
Soon, the donkey cart arrived.
Yunyi told Luo Yu to drive the donkey cart to the backyard and find Granny Cao, who would make the arrangements. Then she led Zhou Jinghan and the two children inside.
As she passed the gatehouse, she introduced them to her husband and children.
The gatekeeper's servants looked at each other, unsure how to react.
"Yunyi, this is..." Just as she reached the second gate, she encountered Sun Qingli, who seemed to be about to leave. She glanced at the three people and said, "We can't just bring any Tom, Dick, or Harry into the manor... Ah!"
Before she could finish speaking, Yunyi rushed over and slapped her.
"Fang Yunyi, how dare you hit me?" Sun Qingli was completely stunned by the blow, and her makeup was ruined.
"You've already hit me, why are you asking me if I dare?" Yunyi sneered. "Let me tell you, this is my man. Without him, I would have died after you sold me. So, he's my savior. These two are his ex-wife's children, so they're my children too. If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll hit you."
“You…” Sun Qingli’s face was extremely ugly. She wanted to fight back, but she found that the man was staring at her menacingly, so she took two steps back in fright.
"I'll hit you!" Qibao shook his little fist.
"Let's go." Yunyi picked up Qibao. "If you see her in the future, take a detour. That old woman will sell people."
"Okay, we'll definitely stay far away." Er Ya nodded. "We don't want to be sold."
"Great." Yunyi patted Erya's head and continued walking inside.
Soon, Yun Zi came over and greeted him: "Greetings, young master, second young lady, and young master."
"Hello, Sister Zi." The two children greeted her obediently.
"Take them to take a shower and change their clothes. This outfit is too awful." Yun Yi handed the two children over to Yun Zi, then took Zhou Jinghan upstairs.
"Tell me, what brings you here? Have you arranged everything in Longxi?"
“I missed you, so I came over.” Zhou Jinghan reached out and hugged Yun Yi. “I haven’t seen you in so long, really… I couldn’t even sleep soundly.”
"Isn't that an exaggeration? We didn't see each other every day before I came to Beijing."
"Although we didn't see each other every day back then, I felt at ease knowing you weren't far away. Now that you're so far away, I don't feel at ease."
Yunyi chuckled: "If others knew you looked like this..."
"Yiyi, when we can be together in the future, I will make sure everyone knows that I can't live without you," Zhou Jinghan said with a strong sense of justice.
"Okay." Yunyi nodded, raising her hand to touch her heart. Is this the sour smell of love? It's quite strange.
Perhaps because she has experienced so much, she has always been indifferent to emotions. Even when the task is heavy, she is just acting out other people's emotions and doesn't put herself into it at all.
Now, I'm truly enjoying being in love.
