Xiao Yu and Yun Ting discussed the details of Xiao Changan's matter again in the study to ensure that Yun Ting could get things done during his absence.

After a detailed chat, Xiao Yu was very satisfied with Yun Ting's performance. He was thoughtful, thoughtful, and had the demeanor of a commander.

No matter what happens in the future, he can rest assured and leave everything to Yunting.

"I leave the affairs of the capital to you, as well as the princess's safety."

"Yes, Your Highness, don't worry." Yun Ting nodded respectfully.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, my uncle and his family are here. Have you reached an agreement?" Su Lingyue's gentle voice came from outside the door.

Just as she was about to knock for the second time, the door opened from the inside.

Seeing her raised hand, Xiao Yu raised his hand and held it, looking at her with a smile on his face.

"Let's go."

Su Lingyue glanced at Yun Ting who was following Xiao Yu and asked, "Have you guys agreed?"

Xiao Yu pinched Su Lingyue's fingertips and pulled her gaze back. "Okay, let's go. Don't keep Master Jiang waiting for too long."

The two of them came to the hall. The Jiang family members were already sitting inside. Tea had been served on the tea table beside them, and Yan Qing was entertaining them.

Seeing Xiao Yu and Su Lingyue coming in, the Jiang family members stood up together and knelt down towards Xiao Yu.

"Your Majesty, I, Jiang Fu, would like to thank you for saving my life. I will never forget your kindness."

When Jiang Fu was about to bow, Xiao Yu said in a gentle voice: "Master Jiang, there is no need to be polite. I saved you because you are a close minister of Daning and Daning cannot do without you. Secondly, you are Yue'er's uncle. If you are slandered, I will help you."

Su Lingyue said: "Yes, uncle, we are all family, we should help each other."

Jiang Fu still knelt and refused to get up, and said solemnly: "Yue'er, I know everything that happened in prison. How can your uncle not remember such a great favor? I will feel relieved only when Your Majesty accepts my greeting."

Su Lingyue knew that Jiang Fu was determined and would not feel at ease until Xiao Yu accepted his greeting.

She pulled Xiao Yu's sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, just accept it so that your uncle can feel at ease."

Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Fu's persistence and nodded, "Let's do as Yue'er said."

The Jiang family members kowtowed to Xiao Yu together.

After the kowtow, Xiao Yu and Su Lingyue helped Jiang Fu and Madam Jiang up respectively.

Jiang Siyuan stood up, took out a booklet and walked forward, saying, "We have prepared some small gifts to express our gratitude. There are several medicinal herbs in it. Your Majesty can ask the palace doctor to see if they can be used to replenish the body."

Xiao Yu took a look and said softly, "That's thoughtful."

Yan Qing stepped forward to take the gift list and stepped aside.

After everyone was seated, Yan Qing casually flipped through the gift list and was a little surprised.

Tianshan snow lotus, 100-year-old ginseng, and 100-year-old ganoderma lucidum are all available. There are also some common medicinal materials, such as deer antlers, younger ginseng, musk, etc., which are also precious medicinal materials.

In addition to medicinal herbs, the gift list also included precious silks, satins, jade and porcelain.

All these add up to at least several thousand taels of silver. The Jiang family really put their heart into it.

After sitting down, Su Lingyue looked at Jiang Fu. Her uncle, who used to be strong, now looked much thinner.

She frowned and asked, "Uncle, are you okay?"

Jiang Siyuan had already told Jiang Fu everything that Xiao Yu and Su Lingyue had done. He knew that this niece really cared about him.

Jiang Fu raised his arm to show Su Lingyue, "Don't worry, Yue'er, uncle is fine! Doctor Ling took good care of me, and Lord Duan never treated me harshly. It's just that the food in prison was hard to swallow, so the food was reduced."

Su Lingyue's brows relaxed. "I'm glad that uncle is okay. A few days ago, my aunt gave me a deer. I asked the chef to stew it today. Uncle, please eat more to replenish your body."

Jiang Fu agreed and said with a smile: "Okay, uncle will also try the cooking skills of the chef in the palace."

Jiang Siqi also echoed, "Don't worry, cousin. We have hired several new cooks who can make medicinal food to help father take care of his health. In a few months, father will be as young as before."

Jiang Fu glared at Jiang Siqi and snorted, "You bastard, do you mean for the father? Madam, am I old?"

Jiang Siqi smiled guiltily and explained, "I meant that my father was younger before he went to prison."

Mrs. Jiang laughed and joked, "You're already a grandfather, and you still care about this."

Jiang Siyuan and Wang Shi saw Jiang Fu glaring at Jiang Siqi, and they both smiled as if they were watching a play. Jiang Yan was laughing so hard that she covered her stomach.

Su Lingyue was happy to see her uncle's family return to their original harmonious and lively state.

She turned her head to look at Xiao Yu, who was sipping tea. Feeling Su Lingyue's gaze, a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Su Lingyue doesn't like ginger tea, but Xiao Yu has a special liking for it.

She didn't understand why Xiao Yu liked such a strange taste.

"Is it spicy?" Su Lingyue asked with a blink.

Xiao Yu said lightly: "Not bad." After that, he handed half a cup of tea to Su Lingyue.

Su Lingyue took a sip from the cup and frowned, "It's very spicy."

Seeing her wrinkled features, Xiao Yu chuckled and picked up Su Lingyue's own teacup and fed it to her, "Yue'er is more suitable for sweet tea."

Wang on the opposite side noticed the interaction between the couple and couldn't help but laugh softly. She tugged at Jiang Siyuan's sleeve and asked him to look at the other side.

Seeing Xiao Yu's doting behavior towards Su Lingyue, Jiang Siyuan also picked up the teacup and handed it to Wang, who took it with a blushing face.

The welcoming banquet is divided into lunch and dinner, and after the dinner, there will be a fireworks display.

Jiang Fu heard that the scenery of Prince Su's Mansion was nice, so after lunch he took Mrs. Jiang to visit the garden to digest the food.

Jiang Siqi had been idle for a few days, and when he saw Yan Qing, he became eager to try out the long sword at his waist, so he made an appointment with Yan Qing to go to the garden to practice sword.

Jiang Siyuan and Wang were very curious, so they followed to watch the few people practicing martial arts.

After Xiao Yu fell asleep, Su Lingyue planned to go to the garden to watch them practice martial arts, but met Jiang Yan at the door of Furong Pavilion.

When Su Lingyue and Caidie came out together, Jiang Yan was staring at the couplets at the entrance of Furong Pavilion.

Seeing Su Lingyue coming out, Jiang Yan came over and took her hand with a sweet smile, then looked at the couplet and asked, "Cousin, why do I feel like this couplet was written by the prince's brother-in-law?"

Su Lingyue lowered her head and chuckled, asking, "Why can't it be written by me?"

Jiang Yan raised her little face proudly, "'The clear light of thousands of miles is beyond imagination, Chang'e and the Jade Rabbit rush to meet each other'. This is clearly about the moon. Even you, my cousin, would praise yourself! So, I guess it must have been written by the prince's brother-in-law."

Su Lingyue admitted with a gentle smile, "Yes, he wrote it."

Looking at Su Lingyue's gentle features, Jiang Yan felt that her cousin looked particularly beautiful. Although her cousin was usually beautiful, her beauty was very different from usual.

Today, my cousin looks more gentle, with a smile that comes from the bottom of her heart, more beautiful than flowers.

Jiang Yan asked curiously, "Cousin, what does it feel like to get married? Is it good to get married?"

Su Lingyue was curious about her expression and asked jokingly, "Why? Yan'er also wants to get married?"

Jiang Yan took Su Lingyue's hand, shook it, and said shyly: "Women will get married eventually, so I'm just asking."

Su Lingyue felt that the little girl was at the age when she was just beginning to fall in love, so it was normal for her to be curious. Maybe she had fallen in love with some young man.

After thinking for a while, Su Lingyue held her little hand and said with a smile: "Yan'er has grown up, it's time to think about these things. How do you think your uncle and aunt, eldest cousin and cousin's wife are doing?"

Jiang Yan said, "I have never seen my eldest cousin and his wife quarrel. My mother and father occasionally quarrel, but my father always talks to my mother calmly. Sometimes my father compromises, and sometimes my mother compromises. In short, the two of them have never really quarreled."

Su Lingyue said: "In order for a couple to live in harmony and live together for a long time, they must be two very good people together. If you don't know how to choose, just follow the example of your uncle and eldest cousin, and you will not go wrong."

Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, her face gradually darkened, and she asked in a low voice: "What if the person is a good person, but his family background is not good?"

Su Lingyue frowned slightly.

Since Yan'er said this, she must have a lover.

I don’t know what kind of person he is.

If you make the wrong choice, it will be a disaster.

Just like in her previous life, she trusted the wrong person and failed to judge him/her, which brought disaster upon herself and her uncle's family.

Su Lingyue stopped laughing and said seriously, "Yan'er, you are the apple of your uncle and aunt's eye. Your money and status will be coveted by many people. If you don't know how to judge people, your life will be ruined."

Jiang Yan pursed her lips, her bright face a little depressed, "I know. But he probably doesn't like me. He wouldn't even accept the purse I gave him."

Su Lingyue smiled gently. The little girl has grown up and she really fell in love with him.

She gently stroked Jiang Yan's face and said, "Yan'er, we will meet many people in this life, some will like you, and some you like, but in the decades of life, only two people who love each other can grow old together, just like uncle and aunt."

After all, she is young and perhaps has not invested too much. After hearing Su Lingyue's words, the frustration on Jiang Yan's little face disappeared.

She raised her bright little face and said, "I understand, cousin."

Seeing her like this, Su Lingyue felt very happy.

"If you find someone you like in the future, tell your cousin secretly and she will help you choose one."

Jiang Yan's cheeks turned red, and she hugged Su Lingyue's arm and leaned on her shoulder, saying coquettishly, "Okay."

Su Lingyue thought of what she had just said and asked, "So who was the person Yan'er was talking about?"

Jiang Yan buried her head in Su Lingyue's shoulder and whispered, "No one. Anyway, I will marry someone who likes me and I like him in the future."
