“We said they were two of our distant relatives. If he wasn’t there, the people at the inn might not have said anything. Now that he’s there, he might ask them for more information. He didn’t find them in Zhu Village, so he should have discovered that our distant relatives are the people he’s looking for.” Xue Yan said.
In other words, Shao Zongxi was certain that he was the real Crown Prince.
Jiang Yue nodded along, showing that she agreed as well.
They had dinner a little late today because they had stir-fried peanuts, broad beans, melon seeds, and other snacks in the afternoon. When they were done, the sky was already dark, so they started to cook dinner.
After dinner, seeing that their sister-in-law, Li Hehua, was uncomfortable sitting all the time because her stomach was getting bigger, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan accompanied her to the small house at the back.
Firstly, they wanted her to walk around and exercise. Secondly, they could
also take the opportunity to see Shao Youyue.
Shao Youyue’s mood has gotten better. Her expressions were filled with life, and she did not often sit or lie down. Just like Li Hehua, she would get up and walk whenever she felt a little uncomfortable.
Therefore, when Jiang Yue and Xue Yan accompanied Li Hehua, Shao Youyue also tagged along. Shao Youyue had just eaten dinner.
The moment Li Hehua entered and met Shao Youyue, the two of them immediately laughed.
Shao Youyue’s recovery was getting better and better, and she was also becoming more and more cheerful. This made Xue Yan smile with glee.
After staying in Shao Youyue’s room for a while, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Li Hehua returned to the front. Xue Yifu, Xue Erfu, and Yu Hongyan were all talking in Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia’s room about the New Year gift. It was almost the New Year, so they asked Jiang Yue and the others to come and listen when they saw that they had returned to the front.
Xue Yan’s family wanted to send some gifts to his teachers and friends as a New Year blessing.
It didn’t have to be expensive, as long as it was sincere.
Moreover, if it was too expensive, his teachers and friends would not accept it.
The people from the academy were all scholars. They were not interested in materialistic items.
Since he didn’t live in town, it would be much more convenient for Sifu to send it to them.
He reckoned that Sifu would help him deliver it in the next two days.
It was only when Xue Dafu and the others had finished talking about the New Year’s gift that they dispersed. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan walked out of Xue Dafu’s room with many thoughts in their head.
Because Xue Erfu couldn’t sleep, he went to the study to read again. Xue Yifu also followed with a silly smile. Xue Yan went to the study and taught both of them how to read some words.
Jiang Yue saw that Li Hehua had fallen asleep and was fine, so she went to where the boys were studying.
Xue Yifu and Xue Erfu were starting to get sleepy. Therefore, they returned to their respective rooms and went to sleep. Xue Dafu and the others were already asleep by the time they went to bed.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also prepared to return to their respective rooms to sleep.
Xue Yan’s room was closer to the study room. Jiang Yue had to pass by Xue Yan’s room, but just as she passed by Xue Yan’s room door, she could tell that an oil lamp had been lit up inside.
Two figures were projected from the light of the shadow.
One was sitting on the brick bed under the window, while the other was standing by the brick bed.
Jiang Yue had already expected Shao Zhongxi to come tonight, so she was not surprised. She glanced at Xue Yan and only went back to her room to sleep after Xue Yan nodded to assure her that he would be fine..
