Chapter 982 The Miss Returns Home

The capital of Dayong - Changxu.

A good horse knows the way, let alone a wise horse.

Xiaozao carried Su Yan into Changxu City and ran towards the direction of Yu Mansion.

"Slow down, don't bump into passers-by." Su Yan reminded Xiao Zao.

Xiaozao snorted and immediately slowed down.

Su Yan continued to teach Xiao Zhouzhou how to speak. The flowers and plants in the human world, the tall city walls, the pedestrians coming and going on the roadside, and the goods sold by the small vendors, etc.

Little Zhou Zhou had never seen any of these things before. He was so happy holding the bottle and kept babbling along with Su Yan all the way. Sometimes he spoke incoherently, but Su Yan would patiently correct him over and over again.

"Dog~" Xiao Zhouzhou pointed at a yellow and white dog on the side of the road and shouted happily.

Su Yan nodded, "Yes, what is that next to the dog?"

Xiao Zhouzhou thought for a moment and replied, "Stone lion!"

Su Yan snapped her fingers and praised, "Very correct, Xiao Zhouzhou is awesome, just like a stone lion."

Suddenly, Su Yan noticed that several old women were pointing at her.

"...Isn't that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"How do you know him? He rarely leaves the house."

"I worked in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a few days before and met this person."

"Why bring a child?"

"If the child didn't look three or four years old, I would have thought she was the illegitimate child of this young lady... Behold, the child is quite pretty. Is she a girl?"

"No~" Su Yan rode over and smiled at the maids, "He's a boy, and he's not an illegitimate child, he's my biological son! Son?"

"Mom!" little Zhou Zhou called out crisply.

"Be good, I'll give you a reward." Su Yan gave him a piece of dried meat to grind his teeth.

The maids didn't expect Su Yan to come over on horseback and seize upon their conversation. They were stunned with different expressions.

"Wait, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is mute, why is she talking?"

"Did I make a mistake? No way. I have a very good eye. I will never forget someone once I have seen him."

"I believe that, but she just opened her mouth to speak. And the child is already three or four years old. If she is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, then three or four years ago, the eldest daughter was only twelve or thirteen years old. How could she have a child?"

"Could it be that I really saw it wrong?"

"possible."

The old woman looked at Su Yan holding the child and chatted more lively. Other curious people came over to ask...

Xiaozao stopped at the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Su Yan thought for a moment and gently squeezed the horse's belly, "Let's go to the gate."

Xiaozao immediately ran towards the main gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As soon as she arrived at the main gate, Su Yan saw Yu Chu personally escorting a young man with delicate and handsome features and wearing a noble and luxurious brocade robe out of the gate.

The young man heard the sound of horse hooves and looked towards Su Yan.

Su Yan, standing against the light, looked cold and aloof, looking down on everyone like a god... The man's lazy eyes turned into playful ones, and he even looked at the little Zhou Zhou in her arms.

Yu Chu also looked over, but his face darkened immediately and he said angrily: "Rebellious girl! You still know how to come back!"

Su Yan ignored him, holding Xiao Zhouzhou in one hand and supporting the horse's back with the other, and jumped off the horse neatly, "Xiao Zao, you know where the stable is, go eat by yourself."

Xiaozao snorted, and in full view of everyone, he walked straight into the mansion through the main gate and went to the stable.

Su Yan also went straight into the door holding little Zhou Zhou.

"Stop!" Yu Chu was shocked. How could his daughter speak?

But thinking about it carefully, this daughter could speak when she was young. It was only after he married Fang that she gradually stopped speaking, and even allowed people to call her dumb...

Su Yan stopped and smiled slightly, with a mocking indifference, "Oh?"

Yu Chu didn't know why he felt uncomfortable when she looked at him. "Whose child is that?"

Su Yan replied: "My son, my biological son!"

"You! What nonsense are you talking about! Don't ruin the reputation of the Yu family!" The child is so big, and Yu Beiqiu is only sixteen years old, how could she possibly give birth to a child!

The most important thing is, she hasn’t even discussed marriage yet!

"I'm telling the truth." Su Yan said to Xiao Zhouzhou: "Come, son~"

"Mom~" Little Zhou Zhou called to Su Yan obediently.

"Children are the least likely to lie." Su Yan said to Yu Chu.

Yu Chu felt like being struck by lightning!

“It’s just that I’ve never heard of Miss Yu getting married, and this child…” the young man began.

Su Yan looked at him and replied, "Can't I have children if I'm not married?"

"Don't be rude to His Highness." Yu Chu scolded.

Then she bowed respectfully to the young man and said, "My daughter lost her mother when she was young and has a strange temper. Your Highness, please don't blame her. This child is definitely not hers. There must be other hidden reasons."

"Your Highness?" Su Yan seemed to be thinking about something. "Are you the only son of the King of Dayong, Prince Cheng Xiheng?"

Yu Beiqiu's mother, Zhang, was the younger sister of the Queen of Dayong. The two of them studied Taoism at the same sect, Yuquan Palace, and got married one after another. They also agreed to become in-laws in the future.

After Zhang died of childbirth complications, the queen still kept her promise and sent a jade ruyi, a symbol of engagement, to the prime minister's residence.

However, this jade ruyi is now in Yu Shenghuan's hands, so one can imagine who will marry into Prince Cheng's palace in the future.

"Heh~" Su Yan sneered, "I advise you to find another good wife."

After saying this, he walked straight into the mansion, with his overly thin back straight, and an astonishingly domineering aura all over his body.

Xi Heng raised his lips and smiled meaningfully, "Mr. Prime Minister, is the jade ruyi that my mother sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion in her hands?"

"That must not be the case! Your Highness, please rest assured! I know what to do." A slight cold sweat broke out on Yu Chu's forehead.

……

Su Yan held little Zhou Zhou in her arms and returned to Yu Beiqiu's residence—Qiu Garden, the most remote courtyard in the Prime Minister's Mansion—amid the surprised or shocked gazes of the servants in the mansion.

The simple yard, where flowers and plants should be planted, is now planted with vegetables. You can imagine what kind of life this person leads.

However, the whole courtyard was kept very clean.

【Xiaomei, give me the stroller. 】

[Yes, host. 】

A beautiful and gorgeous baby carriage appeared in the yard.

Su Yan put little Zhou Zhou into the stroller and gave him a bottle of milk. "Finish your meal and go to sleep."

"Yeah!" Little Zhou Zhou immediately lay down and drank milk.

After drinking, the little guy fell asleep.

Su Yan pulled down the gauze curtain on the top of the stroller so that the little one could sleep more peacefully.

[Host, someone is coming.] Xiaomei reminded Su Yan.

【Waiting for them. 】

Soon, Su Yan heard a lot of chaotic footsteps coming.

She asked Xiaomei to put Xiao Zhouzhou into the system space first. When the baby is sleeping, it is also the time for him to grow, and he must not be disturbed.

Yu Chu came with his step-wife Fang, followed by six servants, one of whom was holding a square brocade box in his hand.
