Chapter 493: 184 Return to Mansion_2

Yueyao hurriedly said, "I heard from Tingzheng that Uncle Li treats him the same as he treats Li Han. I think Uncle Li is also treating Tingzheng as if he were his own son."

Xiang Wei smiled and said, "Placing Tingzheng in the Li family was a smart move. As Tingzheng spends his days with Li Guoxing and Lady Li, emotions will naturally develop over time. Thus, what you need to do is ensure that Tingzheng stays at the Li family, making sure that Li Guoxing and Lady Li treat him like their own son, and that the sons of the Li family also treat Tingzheng as a brother. This is the way to ensure he has no worries for the future. There are many attractive young men in the Capital City, but they are all powerless. As long as the Li family protects Tingzheng, those people won’t target him."

Upon hearing this, Yueyao fell into deep thought. Now letting Tingzheng stay at Li Mansion was easy due to his young age, and uncle naturally wouldn’t say anything, but once he grew older, the elder uncle would certainly not allow it.

Thinking this, a fierce light flashed in Yueyao’s eyes; even if her uncle didn’t allow it, she would make sure Tingzheng stayed at Li Mansion. Lian Mansion was a wolf’s den; if they could sell her, they could surely sell Tingzheng. The Li family was Tingzheng’s sanctuary; it was essential to keep him at the Li family.

After a pause, Xiang Wei said, "Miss, if you are worried, you could let Tingzheng become more endearing to Mingzhu. As long as Mingzhu likes Tingzheng, it will also be beneficial for him. There are few in the Capital City who would dare disrespect Marquis Jingning’s Residence."

Yueyao gratefully said, "Thank you, Xiang Wei. I used to contemplate and resolve issues on my own, but now I finally have someone to discuss these matters with, which settles my heart a bit."

Xiang Wei, taken aback, then smiled and said, "You really are a naive girl." Before, Xiang Wei thought Yueyao was a deep and scheming person. However, having been together for so long, Xiang Wei realized that Yueyao was different from what she imagined. Yueyao was actually a simple person who could forget to eat and sleep for the things she liked.

Despite being a lady of a wealthy family, she had no temper, and she treated her maids and the old nanny with kindness. She was a genuinely kind person. Sometimes, Xiang Wei even found Yueyao rather adorable, as she would often defend the maids and nannies in the courtyard against Mingzhu, showing that the child was very kind-hearted.

At that moment, she realized that all the pains Yueyao took to strategize were actually to preserve herself, not because she was naturally inclined to be manipulative.

Yueyao smiled gently, "It’s quite late, you should go to sleep!" As Xiang Wei stood up, Yueyao suddenly noticed a crucial issue: "Xiang Wei, did you say that Uncle Li might join the Cabinet, so he could possibly become the Grand Secretary in the future?"

Xiang Wei chuckled, "Li Guoxing has the potential. However, whether he can join the Cabinet or not sometimes also depends on fortune." Nothing in the official circles is ever certain.

Yueyao fell silent.

The next day, as soon as Yueyao got up, she exclaimed excitedly, "My hands aren’t feeling sore today." It appears that practicing the martial set last night helped; she must continue to practice daily from now on.

Xiang Wei said, "You should practice the set every day before you sleep."

No sooner had Yueyao stepped out into the courtyard to practice martial arts than she saw Luo Mingzhu coming out of the house. Yueyao was surprised; the sun must have risen from the west for Mingzhu to wake up this early.

Mingzhu yawned. She woke up so early because Bai Yi said that Tingzheng had been getting up at dawn and studying in the courtyard; having heard that, she felt too embarrassed to continue sleeping.

In this era, women were supposed to wake up early, but unfortunately, Mingzhu was not among them.

Yueyao greeted Mingzhu and began to practice martial arts. After the practice, Tingzheng was brought over by Bai Yi to have breakfast.

Seeing Yueyao sweating profusely, Tingzheng asked, "Sister, what happened to you?"

Yueyao smiled, "Sister was just practicing martial arts."

Upon hearing this, Tingzheng immediately exclaimed, "Sister, didn’t you say I could learn martial skills? Sister, when can I start learning martial arts?" Since his sister was learning, he wanted to learn too.

Mingzhu found the interaction between the siblings amusing and laughed, "To start learning martial skills, you first have to eat." She was really hungry.

After breakfast, Mingzhu took Yueyao and her brother to the stable.

The stable wasn’t far from the courtyard; they arrived in a half-hour. The stable was basic, merely fenced with wood, and there were no horses present at the moment.

Mingzhu chuckled, "This place is rather simple. Next time, we’ll take you to the Capital City’s stable, which is much more impressive and beautiful."

At that moment, Yueyao remembered an essential issue: "If the stable is this plain, do they keep horses here? If there are no horses, what are we doing here?"
