No one calls him "Your Highness", they all call him "Third Young Master".
After all, when you go out, you can't be too conspicuous and you have to be careful.
"Mrs. Li, please forgive me. There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be formal."
Yan Mu helped Li Heng up as he spoke, and squeezed his arm deliberately with his hands. Li Heng noticed the other party's temptation and rushed to counteract his luck.
After a while, Yan Mu patted him on the shoulder and said:
"That's really good. No wonder Coach Xiao is full of praise for you. Mr. Li, Master Ling will definitely have a bright future in the future."
"Thank you very much, Third Young Master, for your compliments. I also think Quanzi will have great potential in the future."
Li Hui's calm attitude left Cheng Xue speechless.
To be fair, when others praise your child, even if you don't want to be humble, you have to say "Where" or "Wonderful praise". This guy is better, just climb along the pole.
Seeing Cheng Xue acting like this, Yan Mu waved his hands as usual and said:
"I have already said that Mrs. Li does not need to be reserved. Mr. Li is a good father and will never belittle his son or daughter. This is really good."
He has seen many such scenes, especially at palace banquets. Whenever his father praised a young master who had not been seen for a long time, the other father would make his child worthless. It seemed that a compliment, by the way, would be enough.
It seemed like he was losing his head, which made his father no longer interested in boasting.
"What were you talking about just now? What really?"
Li Heng bowed his hands and said:
"Back to the third young master, Cao Min was chatting with his younger brother just now and said that he would send him to school tomorrow. He asked Cao Min if it was true."
"Oh, that must be true."
After the third prince finished speaking, he walked to the main seat with a smile and invited everyone to sit down. Li Heng stood up and opened the screen to form two independent and sealed spaces. Cheng Xue sat outside with his two daughters. Li Hui, Yan Mu and Li
Brother Heng is sitting inside.
Not long after, the door to the private room opened and the waiter came in to serve the food.
Uniform clothes and uniform way of serving food will give people a pleasing feeling.
After the food and wine were served, the third prince made some decent opening remarks, and everyone started eating with their chopsticks.
The dinner was very harmonious. Yan Mu and Li Hui were like old friends who had known each other for many years, chatting and laughing, and even talking about government affairs from a certain dish.
Yan Mu didn't hide his secrets and would talk about his own opinions and thoughts. Li Hui didn't hide his clumsiness either, and occasionally corrected him.
When the meal was almost done, Cheng Xue saw that Yan Mu was still interested, so she took the initiative to invite him to her home.
"The third young master will leave for Liaodong tomorrow. Why don't you stay at home tonight, just in time to chat with Bai Ren for a while. Tomorrow morning, the little lady will prepare dumplings with cabbage and pork fillings. There is a saying in our hometown that 'hurry up'
"Dumplings and noodles at home, you're just in time, let's have some together to suit the occasion."
I have to say that invitations are an art. If Cheng Xue had said "I made dumplings specially", Yan Mu would definitely not have come. Now, the words "just in time, to meet the occasion" made him feel no burden, so he nodded and agreed.
After arriving home, Cheng Xue told her daughters to go to bed early while she went to the kitchen to get busy.
First tell Bai Zhi to make dumplings, cabbage and pork stuffing tomorrow morning, and let her decide what else to add. Then she took out the snack box that she brought to Shunxing Garden, put it on a plate, and put the precious tea at home
Take it out, soak the back end with boiled well water and go to the study.
In the study, Li Hui, Yan Mu and Li Heng brothers were all there.
After putting down her things, she relaxed slightly, Cheng Xue turned and left, helping to close the study door.
Li Heng stood up and poured tea for everyone, and pushed the hazelnut cake and pine nut cake to Yan Mu.
"Mr. Li has a good way of raising his son, and this young boy is really lovable. If Mr. Pang hadn't arranged for him to be his grandson-in-law in advance, I would have wanted to help him find a match."
Li Hui waved his hands when he heard this, not taking it seriously at all. After all, the third prince had a very good mouth and could talk about life and death.
"Your Highness, please stop having fun with dogs. Please try these two snacks."
Yan Mu temporarily let go of Li Heng, picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth.
When Li Huai saw that he had eaten, he no longer felt wronged. He took another plate of hazelnut cake and gave it to his brother first, and then ate it himself. His father didn't like it, so he didn't give it to him.
There was a lively conversation in the study. Cheng Xue in the main courtyard frowned as she read Lian Yuying's letter.
In the letter, Lian Yuying highlighted He Yulei and He Yuliang of the He family. They returned to Liaodong and went to Pingyang County to check the records five times. They also went to Shushan Town to inquire about the population of the Yu Huai family.
Although Lian Yuying didn't know why the He brothers did this, she felt it was for the couple, so she wrote a letter to remind them.
To be honest, this letter was too risky to send. Once it was intercepted by the He family, it would feel like something was wrong.
Cheng Xueyuan's household registration was originally a replacement for a dead baby in the Yu clan who had not canceled the household registration. These were all handled by Yu Huai himself, without anyone else's hands, so if you want to find out the problem, you can't find out the problem unless you ask yourself.
Don't worry.
The He family came to investigate after the Su family. Does this mean that the He family and the Su family are opposites? Who could it be?
She was the only one in the room, so the letter was placed on the table in such a big and prickly manner.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Li Hui asked as he picked up the letter. After reading it, his eyebrows were furrowed and his mind was rapidly thinking of countermeasures.
"Don't worry, I just went through my memory again. Her uncle had to handle her household registration on his own, so there would be no problem..."
After listening to her explanation, Li Hui was still very upset and still couldn't let go.
"With so many people checking you, I'm afraid your identity is not simple. Do you want me to ask His Highness the Third Prince if there are any wealthy people named Cheng in the capital?"
Cheng Xue did not agree with his rashness, so she put the letter on a candle and lit it, watching it turn into ashes.
"We have been staying in the capital for so long. Don't you know if there are any members of the Cheng family? Don't ask, just let nature take its course. They won't be able to find anything anyway."
"But it's okay to be so passive. They are currently investigating Yujiatun. What if they come to Wanghe Village?"
"Do you think our village will tell my story now? Even if I tell them, will they dare to attack me? Bai Wei and Dexi are not vegetarians?"
She was a little worried at first, but as they chatted, she began to understand, and she no longer had to worry. The emperor's personal spy was here, and as long as the couple was not conspiring to rebel, they could basically sit back and relax.
After hearing her reminder, Li Hui chuckled happily.
"It has to be you, my wife is amazing."
"Have you finished chatting with the Third Prince?"
"I'm in the study, and he's chatting with Li Heng. That guy is very interested in the blood network now. I guess your persuasion is in vain."
"Then I won't persuade you." Cheng Xue smiled and nestled into his arms.
The child has no control over his mother.
Today I was having dinner with the third prince and found that he was a nice person. I thought he could help take care of him after he went to the capital. Besides, there was Gastrodia elata with him, and that boy was deeply loved by Wen Tianzhen...
