The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife-Chapter 2124 - 2126: Going Out

"Sister, brother-in-law, can you take Linyu and me along too?" We hadn’t even finished calming the two children, and now these two bigger ones were eager to join in.

Luo Linyu also said, "We want to go out and take a stroll. Cousin, take us out together."

"You two just stay in the mansion quietly," Ye Zi’an said. "We’re not going out to have fun, there’s work to be done. Bringing you along means having to worry about taking care of you. Once we’re out of the capital, you two stay in the mansion and don’t go anywhere. Stay home and look after Yueyue and the others. When Qingrui and the others finish their palace examination, you’ll go back to Funan with them. When your sister and I return to the capital, someone will be sent to fetch you."

Luo Linyu pouted, a bit unwilling, "Then why are you taking Lele? Cousin, that’s favoritism."

"Lele is clever, he can help me discuss matters when we’re out. Can you do that?" Ye Zi’an glanced at her, "If you could, I’d take you out too."

Instantly, Luo Linyu and Yang Xiayun exchanged a glance and said nothing.

These two together couldn’t beat this little kid.

"Brother-in-law, feel free to leave with sister," Yang Qingrui said with a smile, "Once you depart, Prince An’s Mansion will close its doors to guests. I’ll take good care of these two little ones."

"That reassures me," Ye Zi’an then went to see Yueyue, the little girl’s pout was long enough to hang an oil bottle on.

Yang Chuxia was naturally reluctant to leave the two children, but if they were taken along and happened to fall ill, it would be troublesome.

Ye Zi’an thought about it and then picked up Yueyue and Qingqing, comforting them.

He had a knack for soothing children. Every time this happened, the two kids would come back smiling.

Though knowing their parents were about to leave, the little girl clung to Ye Zi’an all night, "Daddy, you can’t forget me."

"Alright, even if I forgot everyone else, I’d never forget my little darling."

"Dad, you have to bring me gifts when you come back."

"I’ve got it memorized. Everything my Yueyue likes is noted down. When I buy them, they’ll be sent to Funan for you."

"Dad..."

Yang Chuxia, seeing her daughter’s clinginess, felt a twinge of jealousy. This little girl didn’t cling to her at all.

The next day, Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an were about to set off, but the Empress’s personal maid arrived.

"Lord Marquis, Madam, the Empress asked me to tell you that the Yang Family’s two young masters may not have time to return home. So she wishes to have the young master and young miss brought closer to the palace, and when you return, the children will be sent back. Her Highness said she would ensure the two children’s safety."

This made Yang Chuxia a bit displeased. Though the Empress meant well, the palace didn’t only consist of the Empress. Those consorts might see the good relationship between the Empress and Ye Family and attempt to stir things up, with the children being the easiest target.

Refusing might hurt the Empress’s feelings.

Just then, Yueyue, who was being held by Yang Qingrui, suddenly shouted, "I don’t want to go to the palace, I want to go home, I want to see Grandma."

"I want to go back to Funan," Qingqing clung to Ye Zi’an’s leg, shouting, "Daddy, Little Four wants to go back to Funan, go back to Funan."

Yang Chuxia was almost laughing internally; indeed, these two were little rascals.

After thinking a bit, she said earnestly, "Miss Zhen’er, you see how it is, the two children are young and still ignorant, afraid we might offend the Empress’s kind intentions."

(ps: Regarding the conclusion, I mentioned it last time but perhaps some didn’t see it, so to reiterate: I stayed up all night sorting out the plot continuation yesterday, and it will likely conclude in September.)
