After a while, three bowls of steaming wontons were served by the stall owner, who said enthusiastically, "Sir, Hu people, come and try our wontons."

Ye Qingcheng listened to the accent and the words and asked, "Boss, you are not a local, right?"

The stall owner explained: "Hu people, I just came here. My house was flooded, so I fled here."

Ye Qingcheng understood what San Guess said as soon as he heard it: "Oh, so that's how it is!"

The stall owner said to Ye Qingcheng expectantly, "Try it among the Hu people."

Ye Qingcheng exhaled softly, took a bite, and then made a satisfied sound of "hmm" and raised her thumb to praise, "It's delicious. It tastes great."

The stall owner scratched his head happily and ran away to continue his work.

Mo Yan raised his head and said to Ye Qingcheng: "Master can hear what uncle said."

Baili Chenyuan also looked at Ye Qingcheng curiously, waiting for her answer.

Ye Qingcheng put the blown wontons into Mo Yan's eyes and said seriously, "Of course, he said he just came here and there was a flood in his hometown that submerged the village."

In fact, Ye Qingcheng was also three parts listening and seven parts guessing.

The stall owner's accent sounds like that of the modern Guangdong and Guangxi regions.

The three of them were busy eating wontons and chatting intermittently.

After eating the wontons, the three of them continued walking around to digest the food. Ye Qingcheng held Mo Yan's hand, and Baili Chenyuan walked beside Ye Qingcheng.

"Uncle, come and play!", "Young Master, come and play". A group of women in colorful clothes waved to passers-by at the door.

Ye Qingcheng looked up and saw the three big characters "Yihongyuan". She knew what this place was. In modern times, Ye Qingcheng had imagined that if she traveled back to ancient times, she would definitely go to "Yihongyuan" to have a look. But it was not possible tonight. It was not suitable to bring Mo Yan with her tonight.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Qingcheng said: "Chen Yuan, let's go back!"

Baili Chenyuan thought that Ye Qingcheng felt uncomfortable seeing a place like Yihongyuan, so he lost interest in continuing to stroll around.

Baili Chenyuan said softly: "Okay!"

Baili Chenyuan bent down and held Mo Yan in his arms and said, "If Mo Yan is tired, you can take a nap first."

Mo Yan glanced at Ye Qingcheng, and Ye Qingcheng touched Mo Yan's head and said softly, "Be good, take a nap if you are tired."

Mo Yan nestled in Baili Chenyuan's arms and closed his eyes. Children always get tired easily.

Baili Chenyuan and Ye Qingcheng walked towards the general's mansion.

After arriving at the General's Mansion, Baili Chenyuan handed the sleeping figure to Xiao Cui. When Xiao Cui took Mo Yan, Mo Yan woke up, stretched out his hands towards Ye Qingcheng and said softly: "Master!"

Ye Qingcheng took Mo Yan from Xiao Cui and held him in her arms, then turned to Baili Chenyuan and said, "Chenyuan, go back and rest early!"

Baili Chenyuan said gently: "Okay, Qingcheng should also go to bed early."

Ye Qingcheng and Mo Yan simply washed up and lay down.

Mo Yan hugged Ye Qingcheng's neck and asked obediently, "Master, do you like Uncle Baili?"

Ye Qingcheng was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the little kid would ask this question.

Then he covered up awkwardly to Mo Yan and said, "Does Yaner like Uncle Baili?"

Mo Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Uncle Baili is very good. He is good to Master and to his disciple. Master likes Uncle Baili, and so does his disciple."

Ye Qingcheng rubbed Mo Yan's head and said, "Go to sleep, you are still young and don't understand adult matters."

Mo Yan continued, "Will Master marry Uncle Baili?"

Ye Qingcheng said patiently: "I think so!"

In fact, Ye Qingcheng herself was not sure. The emperor would grant the marriage on the second day of next month, which was still about twenty days away.

Mo Yan asked again: "If Master and Uncle Baili get married, will Master stay here or take Uncle Baili to Qingzhu Peak?"

Ye Qingcheng fell into deep thought after listening to Mo Yan's words, but then she changed her mind and realized that Ye Qingcheng was just trying to protect Baili Chenyuan, not really getting married.

Although Baili Chenyuan fits Ye Qingcheng's fantasy of a significant other, this is a novel after all, and is all fiction.

Ye Qingcheng said, "Neither. Master and Uncle Baili are getting married just to help Uncle Baili, not to really get married. So Master will not stay here, and will not take Uncle Baili back to Qingzhu Peak."

Little did they know that Ye Qingcheng's words would come true.

Mo Yan asked again: "Master, when will we leave?"

Ye Qingcheng replied: "Soon, after we get married to Uncle Bai, we will find a suitable opportunity to leave."

Mo Yan said: "Okay, I will listen to Master."

Ye Qingcheng kissed Mo Yan's forehead and said, "Be good, go to sleep!"

Ye Qingcheng herself also felt a little conflicted. After spending some time together, she actually had a good impression of Baili Chenyuan.

But she also felt that this was just a hidden plot in the novel, and the character Baili Chenyuan was not mentioned in the subsequent plots. He was an airdropped character, so Ye Qingcheng guessed that there would be no result between her and Baili Chenyuan, and it was probably just her one-sided affection for him.

If you can’t figure out a problem, don’t think about it anymore. Just take it one step at a time and follow your heart.

When she woke up the next day, Xiao Cui told Ye Qingcheng that her general had gone to the morning court while she was dressing her up.

After having breakfast in the room, Ye Qingcheng accompanied Mo Yan to read and study.

When it was almost noon, a servant came to report that Baili Chenyuan invited Ye Qingcheng to have lunch together in the front hall.

During lunch, Ye Qingcheng saw Baili Chenyuan seemed to be hesitant to speak, so she asked, "Chenyuan, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Baili Chenyuan said gently: "The emperor gave me a vacation and told me to go to court after I get married."

Ye Qingcheng said: "That's a good thing, you can have a good rest now."

Baili Chenyuan said again: "Qingcheng, are you willing to marry me?"

Ye Qingcheng looked at Baili Chenyuan's nervous expression and thought he was afraid that she would regret not helping him, so she patted her chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you."

Baili Chenyuan couldn't stop smiling when he heard Ye Qingcheng's answer, and then said happily: "Qingcheng, you must go and see the mansion that the emperor has given you."

Ye Qingcheng almost forgot about this, thinking that she, Ye Qingcheng, is now a person with a house and money.

Ye Qingcheng said: "Okay, let's go take a look after dinner."

After dinner, Baili Chenyuan carried Mo Yan, Ye Qingcheng and Xiao Cui to Ye Qingcheng’s residence.

Ye Qingcheng's mansion is only two streets away from Baili Chenyuan's general's mansion, so the distance is not too far.

When Ye Qingcheng and Baili Chenyuan arrived at the gate of the Princess's Mansion, they saw a middle-aged man with a row of servants and maids waiting in front of the door early.
