Chapter 440: Doting on Her Grandson (3)

Madam Li did not behave well in front of her father-in-law and reluctantly took her leave. The moment she left the reception pavilion, Madam Li’s face darkened.

She understood that her father-in-law did not like her and always felt that she could not control Helian Qi. However, why didn’t her father think about it? Even his father could not control him. How could she keep an eye on him when she was only a wife? Helian Qi’s love affairs outside could not be counted for three days and three nights. Wasn’t she the one who suffered the most?

How many illegitimate children had he gave birth to outside all these years?

So what if he died? Anyway, she became a widow many years ago. She had a son and a daughter, so she didn’t have to worry about the rest of her life. Does it matter if her husband is still around? She was still at ease even if he wasn’t!

Madam Li thought this in her heart, but she did not dare to show it on her face. Otherwise, her father-in-law would see that she was gloating and she would not have a good time.

“Madam, are we going back to the courtyard?” Aunt Wang asked.

Madam Li stopped in her tracks. “No, to the East Manor.”

Aunt Wang asked, “It’s getting late. Why are you going to the East Manor?”

Madam Li snorted. “A young master appeared out of nowhere. I have to check if it’s true!”

Aunt Wang couldn’t persuade her, so she could only let her be.

Madam Li was not too ignorant of etiquette. She asked Aunt Wang to prepare ginseng and bird’s nest and personally sent it to the young master of the East Manor. At this moment, Old Madam had just finished feeding her darling dinner. She really carried the bowl and fed Yan Jiuchao one spoonful at a time.

Yan Jiuchao’s face darkened. The Old Madam was overjoyed as she watched her precious darling eat mouthful by mouthful.

“Old Madam, it’s time to drink the medicine.” The maidservant brought over the Old Madam’s medicine bowl.

The old lady frowned and said unhappily, “What should I drink? My grandson is back. I’ve recovered! I don’t need to drink medicine anymore!”

The maidservants tried to persuade her for a long time but to no avail. They could only bring the medicine down.

Not long after, Old Cui also brought over a bowl of medicine. It was Yan Jiuchao’s.

Yan Jiuchao’s poisoning was naturally hidden from the Old Madam. He only said that he had a weakness since he was in his mother’s womb and needed to be carefully nursed usually. He could not be careless at all.

Yan Jiuchao’s stomach was so full that he couldn’t drink. However, the Old Madam thought that he did not want to drink the medicine because it was bitter. She got someone to bring her medicine over. “I’ll drink it with you.”

… He didn’t know who was accompanying who. In short, the old and young finished their medicine. Then, they heard a servant report that the Second Madam was here.

Yan Jiuchao’s gaze paused.

The old lady patted his hand and said kindly, “Don’t be afraid, it’s your second aunt.”

It was precisely because of his second aunt that he was “afraid”. After all, the other party was Helian Qi’s first wife.

Because of Old Madam’s love for Yan Jiuchao, Yan Jiuchao could naturally easily send her away. However, he could not hide for a lifetime. He would eventually see these “relatives” of the Helian Manor.

The old madam asked the servants to call Madam Li in. Nanzhao in September was still a little hot. The two of them sat under the porch to cool off.

Madam Li saw the old lady’s precious grandson that the servant mentioned at a glance. The other party was wearing a plain white robe. He had a tall figure, black hair like ink, and jade-like facial features. It was unknown if it was because of his illness, but his face was a little cold and pale. His left hand was gathered in his wide sleeve, and he held a white jade cup in his right hand. His slender fingers were fair and clear, complementing his appearance. He looked like a fairy.

She would not believe that this was a liar who came to trick the Old Madam. This unique appearance was not something that ordinary families could give birth to. Moreover, the noble aura emitted from his bones was even more noble than her sons. He actually looked like… a royal.

Madam Li spat. She was crazy. How could the other party be from the royal family? However, this kid was different from anyone who had come to acknowledge their relatives in the past. Could it be that the old lady’s biological grandson had really returned?

“Come here.” The old lady waved at Madam Li.

Only then did Madam Li realize that the Old Madam was smiling like a child. She had never seen the Old Madam smile like this ever since she married into the family. If she didn’t really think of him as a biological grandson, how could she be so happy?

Madam Li could not help but look at Yan Jiuchao again. Previously, when she glanced at him from afar, she was already shocked. Now that she was closer, she felt that this man was simply unbelievably good-looking.

From his looks alone, he didn’t look like a member of the Helian family. But if he wasn’t a member of the Helian family, how could he be so good-looking?

Madam Li asked Yan Jiuchao a few superficial questions. Where did he live, how did he come, and what relatives he had at home. The servants in the courtyard answered them all, which was exactly the same as Helian Beiming’s explanation. As for Yan Jiuchao, he did not even look at her.
