Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed. Chi Gou had yet to return. Ah Yu knew that Fifth Brother’s life was temporarily not in danger, so she was not so anxious anymore.
On this day, Wang Sanlang returned excitedly and said, “I invited my colleagues to our house as guests. They will come to our house for dinner tomorrow.”
Liu Shi was very happy. “This is the first time our family has invited colleagues over. Of course, we have to prepare well. Sanlang, do your colleagues have anything they like to eat or are afraid of eating? Tell Fourth Aunt first so that I can get someone to prepare it.”
Wang Sanlang scratched his head and thought for a long time. “They don’t have any special preferences. By the way, one of them is from the West Wind Kingdom. He wants to stay in the Imperial Attendant’s Office for half a year. He said that he’s here to inspect the customs of our Great Chang. I wonder if our chef knows how to make some dishes from the West Wind Kingdom. If he does, it should be better.”
Liu Shi nodded. “I understand. i’ll go to the kitchen to ask later.”
“Thank you, Fourth Aunt!”
“Child, why are you being so polite? We’re all family. Why are you thanking me? You’re treating me like an outsider.”
However, when Old Madam Wang heard the words “West Wind Nation”, she raised her eyebrows and glanced at Ah Yu, wondering if that so-called colleague had an ulterior motive.
At night, Old Madam Wang did not fall asleep. Beside her, Old man Wang was also tossing and turning.
Old Madam Wang: “Why aren’t you sleeping at night? Why are you flopping around?!”
As she spoke, she wanted to kick him. Old man Wang was already prepared. He twisted his head and waist and dodged.
Old Madam Wang kicked empty air and hurt her foot. She immediately let out a cry.
Old man Wang immediately turned around and sat up. He accepted his fate and rubbed Old Madam Wang’s feet. “You’re already so old, but you’re still making such big motions every day. Aren’t you afraid of hurting yourself? Don’t think I don’t know that you can’t sleep tonight either. Are you worried about Ah Yu too?”
“I’m not worried about Ah Yu. I’m thinking about whether that person from the West Wind Nation has good intentions or bad intentions. Previously, when the envoys from the West Wind Nation came to Great Chang, my heart was pounding, but they didn’t do anything and left in a hurry. Now that they’ve left someone behind, I can’t help but think too much.”
Compared to the Great Chang, the West Wind Nation actually placed more importance on bloodlines. Their royal bloodline was extremely precious.
Old Madam Wang had already confirmed that Ah Yu was definitely a noble of the royal family from West Wind Nation. The other party had let them off too easily the last time. This was clearly unreasonable.
It was difficult to say that there was nothing fishy about how the other party was so easily fooled by a few words from them and finally gave up on bringing Ah Yu to West Wind Nation.
“All these years, what haven’t we seen before? Could it be that we’ll be frightened by a small official from West Wind Nation?” Old man Wang got off the bed and opened the cabinet. He took out a medicine bottle and applied some medicine to Old Madam Wang’s feet. He then patted her blanket and said, “Alright, you already have enough white hair. Why aren’t you sleeping? Do you really want to be an old woman? If you look even older than the Empress Dowager, you’ll be laughed at—Aiyo!”
Caught off guard, Old man Wang was kicked off the bed.
Just as he was about to complain, he saw Old Madam Wang holding her foot and hissing.
He could only climb onto the bed again and massage her without complaint.
Wang Sanlang was on duty at the Imperial Attendant’s Office. Although he was only an inconspicuous official, he was always fast and good at what he did. He often helped his other colleagues, so he made many friends in a short period of time.
Liu Shi originally thought that only three to five people would come. She didn’t expect that at noon, more than ten people would come one after another. Every one of them was carrying a gift. When they saw the Wang Family elders, they all said, “Sorry to disturb you..”
