"You say your dad wants children? How old is he? Can he even have children now?"

Having lived most of my life, this is the first time I've heard of such a thing. Lord Yu is already in his sixties or seventies; it's uncertain whether he can even manage, yet he still wants a child.

"Who knows? I don't think Tang Xinxin is a peaceful person. Hopefully, she won't cause too much trouble!"

Father must have recently encountered some romantic troubles. Wasn't the lesson from that woman last time enough? In the blink of an eye, he's been entangled with another woman.

"Should we ask the Empress then?"

Madam Nangong advised, "It's best not to ask about this kind of thing. Although she is your daughter, the bond between mother and daughter needs to be maintained. It's not appropriate to go to her specifically for such a small matter!"

Yu Xiaoran thought for a while, "Even if I don't say it, Father will ask on his own!"

Sheng Yuhua had a good impression of the lord of the fortress and always respected him.

"That's true, then I'll ask when I have the chance!"

Yu Xiaoran smiled and said, "I was thinking of waiting for Feiyang to come over and asking him what he thinks first!"

Madam Nangong smiled and said, "How could I forget about Feiyang? His medical skills are quite good, and he used to be the young master!"

"Yes, Feiyang is a good-natured kid, it's good to hear his opinion first!"

"I estimate he'll come over in the next couple of days."

Dongfang Feiyang often comes over, usually just to browse around, sit for a while, and then go home.

Nangong Xi also comes over often, and she will bring Zhuangzhuang with her.

The two had discussed it quite well, but before Dongfang Feiyang arrived, Xiaoxiao came running over.

The little girl was still clutching a candied hawthorn in her hand. Ever since she ate it last time, she had fallen in love with the taste of candied hawthorn and would buy one every time she went out.

The girl beside her advised her to eat less, but the girl retorted confidently, "I don't eat it all the time; I only eat one every few days. Besides, I brush my teeth properly every night, and my beautiful tutor said my teeth are fine!"

The little girl spoke with a smug look on her face, revealing a set of small white teeth.

Wuyou didn't know how to persuade her anymore. Every time she said something, the little princess would have ten or eight more to say. The key point was that even she, an adult, couldn't convince the princess.

"What are you talking about?"

When Xiaoxiao saw that Yu Xiaoran and Madam Nangong were both there, she ran straight to Madam Nangong's side without hesitation and reached out her little hands for a hug.

Grandma Nangong picked her up and said, "Xiaoxiao, it's been several days since I've seen you. What have you been busy with lately?"

You definitely wouldn't ask this to any other child, but Xiaoxiao is different.

The little girl is always busy, sometimes even more so than adults.

Xiaoxiao tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I've been away from Beijing for so long, and there's been a lot going on. Last time I brought back a couple from Yancheng, so I have to help them settle in!"

"And those shops, some of the branches that have expanded outside, are also running low on stock. We'll have to go there to restock in the next couple of days!"

The old lady couldn't help but pat Xiaoxiao's head, "You're such a little kid, why do you have so many problems?"

It made me feel a little ashamed!

Xiaoxiao chuckled, "Then you can work with me too!"

Madam Nangong waved her hand, "I have enough to do. Besides, I'm getting on in years. It's time for me to enjoy my retirement!"

"I've been staying home lately, with nothing much to do. I chat with them, go for walks, and have some tea. I feel like life is pretty good!"

"I'll come visit my grandson again when I have time."

Xiaoxiao looked on with envy, "When will I be able to live a life like this!"

Suddenly, someone tapped her on the head. Old Madam Nangong put on a stern face and said seriously, "You can live this kind of life right now!"

Xiaoxiao smiled sheepishly, "But I think being busy is pretty good!"

"Then there's no way!"

Xiaoxiao remembered the important matter, "You just said you wanted to find your uncle? Is there something wrong?"

Madam Nangong... This little girl is indeed destined to worry; she wants to manage everything.

Thinking of Lord Yu's situation, the question was about wanting to have children. Although Xiaoxiao knew medicine, how could she talk about such a thing with a little girl?

"It's nothing, I was just having a casual chat with your grandmother!"

"Xiao Ran, am I right?"
