Chapter 1242: Chapter 1244: It’s Still the Uncle Who’s Awesome_1
Ye Zi’an responded indifferently, "My uncle is a first-rank Great General!"
Instantly, Yang Xiayun was at a loss for words.
Luo Linyu, being the most straightforward, blurted out, "Still, my cousin’s uncle is more impressive!"
Then she found both Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an looking at her, and she blinked in confusion, "Why are you looking at me? Did I say something wrong?"
"Hehe..." Yang Xiayun couldn’t help but laugh, her shoulders shaking.
Finally, Luo Linyu came to her senses, "Right, my cousin’s uncle is also my dad, huh? Damn, my old man is a Great General, why would I be afraid of a Prefect’s nephew?"
"Hold on!" While Luo Linyu was still rejoicing in her recent realization, she failed to notice that Ye Zi’an had already furrowed his brows, "What was that you just said?"
"What did I say? What’s wrong with me?" Luo Linyu hadn’t yet realized the coarse language she had used. It was Yang Xiayun who reminded her.
As a result, the young girl flared up, "Cousin, Sister-In-Law says the same, why don’t you tell her off?"
Yang Chuxia covered her face; she was metaphorically shot while lying down. This stinky girl was asking for a beating.
"I don’t mind your sister-in-law speaking like that, as long as you can find someone who doesn’t mind you talking this way, I can also let it go."
Yang Xiayun silently looked off into the distance; why did she feel like she had just watched a high-level display of affection?
Luo Linyu felt the same way!
OS: Unexpectedly faced with a mouthful of dog food!
Yang Chuxia let out a chuckle. Yangyang had no idea what everyone was talking about, but seeing his mother laugh, he also giggled.
"Mom, I’m hungry, hungry..."
"Lele, are you hungry?"
"Hungry." Little Lele nodded as well.
"Then let’s eat first, we can talk about this later." Yang Chuxia gave Brother An a look, and Ye Zi’an didn’t push the issue any further.
Yang Xiayun and Luo Linyu didn’t go back to their own courtyards for dinner; the family ate together, talked for a while, and then dispersed.
A quiet night passed.
The next day, Ye Zi’an went out to the town below. The construction on the Yanghe levee had been finalized, and after the first month passed, the channels to divert water to other areas had begun to be dug. He went to check on the progress there.
Meanwhile, Yang Chuxia was teaching Lele to draw with a hard pen, which in this case, was simply made from charcoal.
"Drawing with a hard pen makes the lines smoother."
"Mom, can you draw with this thing too?" Lele referred to the piece of charcoal in his hand.
"Of course, you can also use it to write." Saying this, she wrote two characters with the charcoal, "See for yourself."
"What are you guys doing?" Yangyang peeked over and asked.
Yang Chuxia gave her younger son a sideways glance, "Your brother and I are writing. Do you want to join us?"
"No, no..." After saying this, he turned and slipped away.
"This kid, if he doesn’t want to join, why ask?"
After she finished speaking, Yangyang soon came running back.
"Changed your mind? Want to write now?"
Yangyang giggled, "Not at all!" He paused, then added, "Someone’s looking for you!"
"Who is looking for me?" Yang Chuxia quickly asked Ming Liu, who followed Yangyang inside.
"Madam, First Madam Li is here, and she doesn’t look too pleased."
Yang Chuxia scoffed, "If she looked pleased, that would be strange. Invite her in." Her son’s arms and legs had been broken; how could she look pleased?
"Lele, would you take your brother to the next room, please?"
"Okay!"
Thus, Yang Chuxia set him down, and the two brothers, hand in hand, prepared to leave. However, they hadn’t walked far out the door when they ran into First Madam Li.
First Madam Li, seeing the two delicate and lovely children in front of her, and remembering what the family servant had reported -- that these children were involved -- felt a surge of anger and glared at the two boys.
