"Also, the common people still don’t know that the mummy disease is a kind of poison; they only know it’s a disease. Be careful not to let it slip when talking about it, lest the people beco even more panicked."
"Understood, I’ll go take care of it right away." Fugui bowed slightly and left through the west side door.
Once he exited the mansion, he went around to check the front main door, but found that there was no one there already, which left him puzzled.
Yang Chuxia had just finished discussing matters with Fugui when Mingcui rushed over saying, "Madam, good news, the people outside have dispersed."
"Dispersed?" Yang Chuxia asked hastily, "What happened?"
"Madam, it was the Eldest and the Second Young Master. The two of them worked together to get rid of the people." Mingcui then recounted the events that had taken place in the front courtyard to Yang Chuxia.
After listening, Yang Chuxia couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth. That child Yangyang still acted so straightforwardly. As for Lele, she hadn’t expected his words to be exactly what she had in mind. Both believed that even if she admitted to having people excavate it, it couldn’t be confessed readily. Otherwise, no matter how legitimate her reason, even if it was for the common people, the people would still not understand. In the end, Brother An would just be implicated!
"Madam, our two young masters are truly clever, truly impressive!" Mingcui said with a beaming smile, with a hint of envy in her eyes; she also wanted such beautiful and clever children.
The glimr in her eyes did not go unnoticed by Yang Chuxia.
She laughed, "Envious? Once this matter is over, we’ll marry you to Ye Wu, and then you can have a beautiful baby yourself."
She had originally planned to pick a date for their marriage, as they weren’t getting any younger and needed to wed. But unexpected events kept occurring one after the other.
"Madam..." Mingcui’s face turned beet red upon hearing this.
"Look at you, still shy?" Yang Chuxia teased, "Do you think I didn’t see Ye Wu bringing you things?"
"Really, Madam? You even know about that?"
Mingcui thought they had been very careful. Just this morning, Ye Wu had brought her so soup dumplings, tightly wrapped, yet how could she know?
"East City’s soup dumplings, you can tell just by the sll, haha. Don’t be shy anymore." Yang Chuxia stood up, patted her shoulder with a laugh, and went out.
In the garden, Commandery Princess Dongyang was playing with several young children.
Lele and Qingqing were hugging together, Chengcheng and Yueyue were tugging at a rope, while Yangyang surrounded Lele and Qingqing, anxiously scratching his ear.
"Brother, do you have to be so stingy? I’ve admitted my mistake, isn’t that enough?" Yangyang held Lele’s hand, but before Lele could speak, Qingqing had pried it off.
"Hey, you little brat, he’s your brother, but I’m not, am I? Why are you pulling my hand away?"
Seeing this, Yangyang quickly put both hands on Qingqing’s face.
"Annoying, annoying!" Qingqing was already able to speak, albeit only simple words, but she was quite steady on her feet.
"Dare you say I’m annoying?" Yangyang widened his eyes, "Call brother, or I’ll pinch you."
Unfortunately, Qingqing just ignored him, but when Lele turned his head, Qingqing smiled, "Brother."
"Wow, little brat, you’re showing favoritism at such a young age?" Yangyang exclaid jumping, "When you were little, I was worried about you going hungry, and checked every day to see if you had eaten your fill. This is how you treat ?"
But his roars did not have any impact on Qingqing hiding in Lele’s arms.
"You, you, you’re really driving mad." Yangyang turned around and plopped down on the stone bench with a look of utter despair on his face, "You two have no brotherly love at all."
