Chapter 634: Chapter 573, One Day Apart Feels Like Three Autumns_1

“With those two powerful nannies in your house, who would dare send someone to call for you?”

Daohua glanced at Xiao Yeyang, her heart becoming extremely uncomfortable as she thought about nanny Jia calling her “lustful” during the Jiang Family banquet. She couldn’t help but pout and complained to Grandma Gu.

After hearing this, Grandma Gu’s face turned somewhat cold.

Seeing her reaction, Daohua quickly added, “Grandma, rest assured, I didn’t let her take advantage of me; I forced her to kowtow and apologize in public.”

“She’s just a servant; what’s the use of her kowtowing and apologizing?”

Gu Jian walked in from outside with a stern face, “For that kind of presumptuous servant, poisoning her to death with a single pill would be the end of it.”

At these words, Daohua was momentarily stunned.

Her master’s ferocity seemed a bit intense!

Before Daohua had the chance to respond, Xiao Yeyang spoke up,

“Poisoning her to death is easy, but if this one dies, there might be another to follow. It’s better to keep them confined in the house; they can just wash clothes for my people.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Jian gave Xiao Yeyang a look, “The women from the palace have many insidious methods. This time she dared to publicly sully Daohua’s reputation; who knows what she might do next time.”

With that, he furrowed his brows.

“I’ve heard that the people from the Jiang Family have also moved to Ningmen Prefecture. Relying on the support of that old lady… the Empress Dowager, they act without any scruples. If they join forces with the nannies in your house, even you will have to be careful of their schemes.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled, “Master Gu, rest assured, nothing like that will happen.”

Seeing Xiao Yeyang so full of confidence, Gu Jian pursed his lips, “…Don’t think everything is under your control. There are many things in this world that are impossible to guard against.”

Speaking of which, a look of self-reproach appeared on his face.

“If I hadn’t been careless that year, my sister wouldn’t have suffered all these years.”

At these words, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang exchanged a quick glance, their expressions turning serious.

Witnessing the remorse in her brother’s eyes, Grandma Gu sighed, “It’s been so many years, why do you still mention it? Besides, you weren’t to blame for what happened back then.”

Speaking of which, she looked towards Xiao Yeyang and Daohua.

“What Xiaojian means is for you two not to be careless. Especially you, Yeyang. The nanny Jia sent by the Empress Dowager showed hostility towards Daohua the moment she arrived. You need to keep a close eye on her, so she doesn’t do anything to harm Daohua.”

Xiao Yeyang’s demeanor became serious, “Grandma, Master Gu, rest assured, I will definitely protect Daohua.” He narrowed his eyes as he added, “That nanny Jia, I won’t let her have contact with the outside world from now on.”

Seeing that he took their words to heart, Grandma Gu and Gu Jian did not say any more.

Daohua, silent at the side, didn’t chime in. She wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but she felt her grandmother and master were particularly wary of the Jiang Family and that nanny Jia sent by the Empress Dowager.

Soon, Caiju came to announce that dinner was ready.

At the dinner table, Gu Jian inquired about Xiao Yeyang’s journey: “Was your trip to the frontier smooth?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded, “Everything went very smoothly.” Continuing, he gave an overview of what happened at the frontier, and finally, with a smile, he looked at Daohua, “This time we managed to capture the Grand Prince of Tartars successfully, thanks to the Ginseng Fortifying Pill you gave.”

They had pursued the Grand Prince of Tartars day and night for several days without rest. Without the Ginseng Fortifying Pill to replenish their energy, they might not have been able to capture him alive.

Daohua laughed, “I told you my Ginseng Fortifying Pill would come in handy. Since it was useful, I’ll make more of them in the future for you to carry around in case of an emergency.”

Xiao Yeyang didn’t decline the offer and nodded with a smile, “Alright.”

Daohua gave him a glance and headed towards the kitchen, with Xiao Yeyang following closely behind.

Before long, Daohua took out a small jar of Peach Blossom Wine from the corner of the kitchen and said to Xiao Yeyang, “You’ve been running around for over two months and didn’t think to rest. How about drinking it tomorrow?”

Xiao Yeyang smiled as he took the wine jar, opened the lid, smelled the aroma of the wine, and took Daohua’s hand, “We haven’t seen each other for over two months. The night is so beautiful tonight, let’s go outside and sit for a while, and talk.”

Daohua looked at him and, without saying a word, followed him out.

At the end of April, the weather was already a bit hot, but as the two walked out of the courtyard and felt the mountain breeze, it was still comfortably cool.

Soon, they arrived at the Jiao Pavilion on the mountain. After De Fu placed the colored glaze lamps properly, he took Wang Manman and left.

“The Master and Miss Yan haven’t seen each other for so long, let them talk.”

“What do you mean so long? It’s only been over two months.”

“Haven’t you heard the saying ‘a day apart feels like three autumns’? Just think about how many autumns it’s been since the Master and Miss Yan have seen each other.”

Their words drifted into the pavilion on the breeze, and Daohua glared at Xiao Yeyang, “Why don’t you manage De Fu a bit? Listen to what he’s saying.”

Xiao Yeyang sat down in the pavilion and laughed, “What he’s saying is of course what’s in my heart.” He then glanced at Daohua, “During this time, I thought about you every day, eager to finish my work and come back to see you. That… don’t you miss me at all?”

Daohua was taken aback by his straightforward question, glanced at Xiao Yeyang, then walked out of the pavilion and sat on the swing outside.

Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang quickly followed, “Move over a bit, let me sit on the swing too.”

Daohua didn’t move, “No, if you were to sit and the swing couldn’t bear it, what would we do if I fell?”

Xiao Yeyang chuckled, “With me here, how could I possibly let you fall?”
