Alright, early in the morning, Yang Chuxia hadnāt noticed that she had spoken of things that didnāt belong to this world.
Watching her departing figure, Ye Ziāan flicked a look of confusion. Was there such a clean official, and why had he not heard of him?
The family happily had lunch, and then Ye Ziāan went off to the government office, while Yang Chuxia checked some lists with Ming Liu.
As for the two little steamed buns, one was like an old monk in meditation, undisturbed by the outside world, tracing over characters bite by bite. The other, having gotten who knows where a small mirror, kept smiling at it from time to time, while occasionally touching the crescent on his forehead.
Mingcui, watching his adorable antics, couldnāt help but laugh. For such a young age, to already know vanity!
"Are you looking at me?" Yangyang, the little steamed bun, noticed Mingcui looking at him from time to time.
"Are you looking at me??"
Seeing Mingcui didnāt speak, Yangyang said it again, then ran up to her, pointing at his forehead, "Pretty?"
"The young master is very pretty!" Mingcui finally nodded.
Yangyang, having received the compliment, felt a bit smug, "Baby is pretty." Meaning he was the prettiest of all.
Which even made Lele roll his eyes.
And Yang Chuxia even more so!
"Madam, there is a visitor at the door claiming to be from the Capital City!" Sister-in-law Li came from the front courtyard, bringing with her some freshly made pastries.
When Yangyang saw the new pastries, his eyes lit up, thinking the cakes looked very beautiful, as if they were tasty.
Seeing this, Yang Chuxia told him to go and eat with his brother at the side.
"Visitor from the Capital City? Male or female? Did you invite them in?"
Yang Chuxia thought that if the visitor was from the Capital City, it could be one of just a few families.
"This servant doesnāt know yet. The people at the gatehouse were about to come in and report when they happened to meet this servant, so this servant came to inform the madam together with them."
Hearing this, Yang Chuxia headed for the front courtyard, but before she even got there, she saw a figure charging in.
"Yang Chuxia, Yang Chuxia, Iāve missed you so much..."
Upon hearing this voice and seeing the familiar colorful garb, Yang Chuxia was taken aback for a moment, "Commandery Princess Dongyang?"
"Itās me, Yang Chuxia. I came to see you," Commandery Princess Dongyang said joyfully, twirling around, "Isnāt it surprising?"
"Surprising, utterly surprising."
It was so surprising it was frightening. Wasnāt her engagement still on? How did she end up here?
"Hehe, Yang Chuxia, Iām going to stay here in Mianyang for the New Year," declared the Commandery Princess, dropping the bombshell and before Yang Chuxia could escape, she added, "Iām going to stay here for a good while, but you mustnāt leak out my whereabouts, okay?"
Yang Chuxia looked at her for a moment, then looked behind her, where only Su Ma followed her.
"Did you sneak out of the Capital City?"
"Donāt use the word āsneak,ā okay? I left the Capital City in a perfectly dignified manner," she said, glancing at Yang Chuxia, "And youād better not be unwelcoming to me."
"That, I wonāt!" Yang Chuxia shook her head with a smile, "Honestly, Iām very happy to see you. I donāt have many friends here in Mianyang, and some of the families I interact with, I canāt get close to. Your visit is just perfect; Iāll have someone to keep me company."
"Hehe, thatās great!" Commandery Princess Dongyang stepped forward, linked arms with Yang Chuxia and said, "Hurry and take me to see your sons, I havenāt seen them in half a year, they must be even cuter now."
Talking about her two sons, the smile on Yang Chuxiaās face deepened. Of course, her two little steamed buns were cuteāthey were the cutest children in her eyes.
