The Lin family returned to peace, and several people returned to their houses with their own thoughts. Tonight, little Yining still followed her mother to kiss her, and there was no need for anyone to guard the door, so Zhao Ya and Qiu Yi also had a day off.

After her daughter fell asleep, Wan Niang took out the rope from under the bed and wrapped it around her arm, then put it down with regret, "If I had known this, I should have learned martial arts from my father when I was young, and not been lazy."

Among three siblings, only the eldest brother is weak in his limbs. She and the second brother are both good candidates for martial arts, but unfortunately she is lazy, and her daughter seems to have the same problem.

Pei Dafu finished his shift today and hummed a little tune as he returned to the house. He had accompanied the emperor in his life to see all kinds of demons in human form. People's hearts were unpredictable, and he dared not have a confidant. The only time he could relax was to stare blankly in his doghouse. But today was different. As soon as he stepped into the yard, he smelled something unusual, and his beardless face showed a playful smile.

"Ouch." Pei Dafu pushed the door open and saw two people sitting inside. He covered his chest exaggeratedly and said, "Miss Li, if you were to come, I would definitely welcome you. Why are you acting like a little fool? I'm scared to death."

"Miss Li, this is..."

Li Anhe got straight to the point and said, "Eunuch Pei, I want to see my cousin."

Pei Dafu's eyes sparkled. His master really knew Li Anhe thoroughly and knew that she would come to him after she knew her grandson was bullied. But the little girl only mentioned it at this time. She had a bad memory. She should have sent a letter home to complain that day, and made her master wait so long.

"Miss Li, the emperor has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me." Pei Dafu came to an inconspicuous wooden sculpture in the house and pressed it lightly. A deep tunnel appeared in front of Li Anhe and his wife.

"please."

Li Anhe and Wang Ersheng looked at each other, unable to hide the surprise in their eyes.

Winter is a time of laziness, making people want to stay in their warm nests. This is what Xiao Yining thought. It was a rare holiday, and she would have to go back to her hometown in a few days. She would definitely suffer from the journey, so she must stay in bed from morning to night today, and no one would wake her up.

Wan Niang hurried into the room, looked at the quilt that was raised on the bed, and helplessly stroked her forehead, "Qing Jie'er, get up quickly, the imperial edict is here."

What imperial edict? Her father is still in Yanzhou and has not come back at all.

Xiao Yining wiped the saliva and continued to sleep with his head turned to the other side.

"Madam, please go ahead first. I'll pack up the young lady and bring her over right away." Zhao Ya had already picked out the clothes and came to the bed.

"As for this child, Madam Zhao, please bring Sister Qing here quickly." After saying this, Wan Niang left in a hurry.

The next moment, Xiao Yining was picked up from the bed by Zhao Ya. She looked at Zhao Ya with sleepy eyes, accusingly, and said with a pursed mouth, "Mammy, you are so bold. I want to sleep."

"Oh, Miss, the imperial edict has arrived, you should go quickly." Qiu Yi came in with water for washing her face.

"Miss, you'd better go to bed after receiving the imperial edict, or you might be accused of disrespect." Zhao Ya quickly put on little Yining's clothes.

There really is an imperial edict!

Little Yining, with his ahoge hair on his head, was carried by Zhao Ya to his uncle's house next door. The front yard was already full of people and it was very noisy. There were also people outside the door who were watching the fun.

Pei Dafu looked at the little girl who was still sleepy, grinned, and began to read the imperial decree.

Little Yining listened to everyone thanking her with a confused look on her face, and finally realized that her grandmother had succeeded in currying favor with the emperor, and was named Princess Jiahe by the emperor. Also, her grandfather was given the sinecure position of General Rongguang because of his family's meritorious service in offering auspicious signs.

Uncle grandpa is so generous!!!

Little Yining was completely awake. She looked at Pei Dafu eagerly. The white tiger cub was also given by her. Would she be rewarded?

Pei Dafu handed the imperial edict to Wang Ersheng, and stepped forward to touch Xiao Yining's ahoge. "If the young lady misses His Majesty, she can come to the palace to see him at any time. His Majesty has no princess, but he likes the young lady very much."

Little Yining looked at the boxes of rewards being carried in, grabbed Pei Dafu's fingers and nodded vigorously, saying, "Go, she must go." She also wanted to go to her uncle's private warehouse to have a look.

Pei Dafu turned to look at Wan Niang again and said, "Miss, the emperor originally wanted to adopt you as his adopted daughter, but your parents stopped him, saying that it would be too conspicuous. Your honor should be fought for by your husband."

"But don't worry, the young lady is now protected by His Majesty, and no one dares to bully her."

Wan Niang had tears in her eyes and bowed to Pei Dafu, "Eunuch Pei, please thank my cousin uncle for me. My husband and I will definitely get back Xiao Yining's place."

Sheng Jingchen was indeed generous to his relatives, and he even gave his cousin a large house, which made countless people envious. However, they did not move there yet, but continued to stay in their simple courtyard. There were still two people who had not returned home, so they had to wait for them to come back before discussing whether to move.

There are so many interesting things happening in Yanjing. The people of Yanjing are very satisfied with the news and old stories are also being brought up and talked about.

"This General Leng's Mansion has been in decline since the death of General Leng. Not a single one of them has been promoted to the fifth rank. It seems that His Majesty still has a grudge against what Leng Qingnian did back then."

"It's also because the Leng family is not doing things right. How can they turn around and ask to marry the second Miss Li when they broke off the engagement with the eldest Miss Li, especially when the eldest Miss Li's body is still warm. It's normal for His Majesty to be angry for so many years. The eldest Miss Li is not only his cousin, but also his savior."

"But it's really rare that Miss Li came back to life."

"Didn't Miss Li not die completely at the time? She was rescued by her current husband who passed by and pried open the coffin. She also lost her memory. It was only when the eldest son brought her to Beijing to study that she remembered everything."

"pitiful."

There are many different opinions among the people, and who can know the facts better than the parties involved?

But it was true that the Leng family was in trouble. Not to mention the past events of several decades ago, the fact that Duke Chen had returned to Beijing was enough to make them suffer. Duke Chen's youngest daughter insisted on marrying into the Leng family despite her family's objections. She finally gave birth to a child and died of hemorrhage. Duke Chen would return to Beijing at the end of every year to see his daughter's orphan, but at the beginning of the year his little grandson was lost by Leng Qingyun and could not be found.

General Leng's sons are all capable and handsome, and all of them married noble ladies. However, one of them is disliked by the emperor, and the other has offended Duke Chen.

Xiao Yining finally got on the carriage sent by Yu Ke's family. The interior was gorgeous and smooth. It was obvious that her family had put a lot of effort into it, but in the end it was a bargain for her family. She secretly opened the curtains and eavesdropped on the private conversations between the vendors. A long white hand pulled her back and said reproachfully, "It's cold. If there's anything you want to hear, ask someone to go out and listen before you tell me."

She tilted her head and looked at Leng Yi. Oh, he should be called Pei Yi now. On the day her grandmother was conferred the title of Princess, this person came to Pei Dafu and asked to change his surname.

Well, when she met his fellow villager, he didn't care about his body, and certainly didn't care about his last name. She also curiously asked him what he would do if his parents came to recognize him as a relative?

She is now absolutely certain that he is a child of the Leng family and the heroine's cousin.

"I was abandoned by others." Pei Yi just said lightly, "In this case, of course I have to find a father who is willing to accept me."

So he is Pei Dafu's son now. Although he still lives with Xiao Yining, he never fails to show filial respect to Pei Dafu every day.

Xiao Yining pulled open her fellow villager's cloak and hid inside it as usual. She didn't know if it was because her fellow villager's body had not yet fully recovered, but he always exuded cold air, and she always wanted to keep him warm.

She exclaimed sincerely, "My cousin is also a nobleman now!"

I found a good partner, he is indeed her fellow villager.

Pei Dafu: Actually, it feels really good to be a father.
