Suddenly, it felt quite boring.
"Youāre awesome! Congratulations!"
Shen Qiu laughed again.
Her son really couldnāt stand his motherās behavior any longer, tugged at her sleeve, "Mom, can we go home?"
"Go home for what?" Shen Qiu shrugged her clothes, "Mouthy and nosy, didnāt you see your mother is talking to someone?"
"Mom, canāt you be a little perceptive?" the boy shouted, "This is the restaurant entrance, didnāt you see theyāre about to go in for dinner? Why are you blocking the way and talking?"
Shen Qiu suddenly realized her misstep, but this brat just has no regard for her face.
Yet the words from her son that wouldnāt save her face were still coming, "And Mom, are you silly or what? Who comes up and immediately asks if someone got dismissed from their office? Even if he got dismissed, youāre not the one to look after him. The Yang Chuxia you mentioned is the wife of Marquis Changning, right? Marquis Changningās big brother-in-law is in court, and there are many relatives, so why do you meddle?"
"Moreover, look at that jade pendant on him; one piece of it could buy three of our shops, so donāt bother. Hurry up and leave."
After saying this, he dragged Shen Qiu onto the nearby carriage.
Once the carriage started moving, the child peeked out the curtain and awkwardly said, "Well, my momās a little slow-minded, donāt bother with her."
Standing at the restaurant entrance, Yang Chuxia and Ye Ziāan exchanged looks.
"Letās go, no need to dawdle."
Once upstairs in the private room, and after ordering the dishes, Yang Chuxia sighed, "Shen Qiuās son is really something else."
"A pretty smart kid, good observational skills." Pausing, he added, "Just like Hongjunās nature, a bit out of control, probably spoiled at home."
"Might be, but Shen Qiu sure is interesting." Yang Chuxia laughed, "At her age, she still likes to compete."
"By the way, why did you say you got dismissed from office earlier?"
"We didnāt hide our return, and officials are bound to come visit, donāt you find it annoying?"
"Youāre always so considerate. This way, before they get the facts straight, they wonāt bother us." Yang Chuxia rinsed the chopsticks and handed them to Ye Ziāan.
"This restaurantās food is quite good, comparable to Julei Lou."
"More mild in flavor."
Yang Chuxia nodded, "I quite like it."
"If you like it, come often."
"..."
After the meal, the couple didnāt linger in town but let the carriage head straight to Yangshu Village.
Crossing the bridge at Liās Village, ahead is Yangshu Village.
"See the person ahead with the shovel, is that my fourth uncle?"
Ye Ziāan leaned over, from behind it really did resemble Yang Xiaochuan.
"Seems like it."
"Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle..."
Yang Xiaochuan, carrying a shovel in one hand and a pipe in the other, slowly turned around. Seeing Yang Chuxia waving, his eyes widened suddenly.
"Xiaxia? Brother An? Why are you back?"
Yang Chuxia had already climbed out of the carriage, "Weāll be living in Yangshu Village from now on."
"Why donāt you stay in the Capital City? Did something happen? Cough, cough..."
"Nothing happened." Yang Chuxia noticed his urgent coughing, and Ye Ziāan stepped forward to pat his back, "We just didnāt want to live in the Capital City anymore, we miss home, so we returned."
"As long as itās nothing, thatās good."
Yang Xiaochuan added, "We all value returning to our roots, itās meant to be."
