When the three little fatties saw Yu Wan, they didn’t want the fish or the rice anymore. They swung their hands and pounced on Yu Wan.
This unbearable weight of life almost threw Yu Wan out. Yu Wan hugged her sons, whom she almost couldn’t hug within her arms, with a sad expression.
What have you experienced during the time when I wasn’t around…
Soon, Yu Wan knew what they had experienced.
“Dabao, Er’bao, Xiaobao, come over quickly.”
It was Mom’s voice.
However, before she arrived, the fragrance wafted in first. It was a crispy fragrance with sesame seeds. Yu Wan felt her saliva coming out. When she turned around, she saw Madam Jiang holding a plate of glossy duck legs. Every duck leg was fried until it was crispy yellow. The skin was wrapped in honey and sprinkled with sesame seeds. Just looking at it could make one eat heartily. She wonder how the taste—
Before Yu Wan could finish thinking, the little fatties in her arms ran out. They stood on their tiptoes and grabbed a duck leg on the plate.
The corners of Yu Wan’s mouth twitched. From the looks of it, this was not the first time they had an extra meal, right?
The three of them brought the duck leg to Yu Wan and raised their hands to feed her first. Yu Wan looked at the three chubby hands and had mixed feelings.
“Is it good?” Yu Wan asked.
The three of them: “Slurp ~”
Delicious!
Yu Wan: “Then you guys eat.”
They looked at their mother’s gaze. It was saying: if you dare to take a bite, you would be finished!
The deciphering of their mother’s gaze failed, and the three fat children started eating.
Yu Wan : “…”
Yu Wan looked at Madam Jiang resentfully. “Mom.”
Look at how fat they are.
Madam Jiang looked at the sky.
Yu Wan was speechless again.
Aunt went to the workshop and called Uncle and Yu Feng back. Although he didn’t have to farm now, Yu Feng was still tanner than before when he went around collecting and delivering goods. However, he didn’t look bad. His wheat-colored skin made him look more mature and charming.
Uncle’s legs were much better. He could walk half the village without his walking stick, but it was a little slow. However, when he thought of how he used to limp, the entire family was very satisfied.
“Uncle, Big Brother!” Yu Wan smiled and walked over.
On the way back to the house, Aunt had already told the two of them that Yu Wan had returned. However, just like how Yu Wan did not recognize the three little fat fellows, the two of them did not recognize Yu Wan either. Yu Wan was wearing the clothes sent by Madam Meng. She was wearing a lake blue dress with a small waist and wide sleeves. She was wearing a slender white shirt that fit her chest. It was clean, ethereal, and as graceful as water. She did not have much jewelry on her head and only had a few white jade buds. However, she looked even more elegant and refined like this.
The two of them were stunned for a long time before they muttered, “Ah Wan.”
“Are Uncle and Big Brother alright?” Yu Wan helped Uncle into the central room.
Uncle nodded repeatedly. “Good, good! I’m good!”
Yu Wan looked at their flushed faces and knew that her uncle was not being polite with her. Her family was really doing well, so she was relieved. She poured a cup of cold tea for Yu Feng, who was sweating profusely. “Big Brother, you must be exhausted.”
Yu Feng looked at the tea in his hand and vaguely felt that his sister was not married.
Actually, although their family did not say it, they were still not used to it. Everyone missed her very much.
“Where’s your second brother?” Aunt looked out. She didn’t see her youngest son, but she saw a few unfamiliar… maidservants and coachman?
Yu Wan smiled and said, “Second Brother’s exam is coming soon. He said he wants to study hard and will come back after he passes.”
These were Yu Song’s words. After the fight, Yu Song no longer caused trouble in the Directorate. Student Liu had targeted him a few times, but Yu Song ignored him. Student Liu felt that it was boring and could not be bothered to cause trouble anymore.
Aunt was angry and amused. This kid was clearly the naughtiest in the village. There was really a day when he calmed down and studied.
“He caused you a lot of trouble, right?” Aunt said.
“How could that be?” Yu Wan told him about Yu Song going to the Directorate to study. “…Second Brother lives in the Directorate and rarely returns to the manor.”
She was talking about returning to the manor, not going to the Young Master Manor.
She had never treated her second brother as a guest, and Yan Jiuchao was the same.
The Yu family did not know what a Directorate was. Yu Wan explained it to them. It was the highest academy in the dynasty, the most amazing academy in the Great Zhou.
The Yu family was dumbfounded.
They only knew that Yu Song had gone to the Capital to study with their son-in-law. They originally thought that it was a private school similar to the town. Or maybe they would have hired one or two teachers in the manor. They didn’t expect him to be sent to such a powerful place.
