Nian Susu was finally able to laugh out loud, and he laughed so hard that he bent over.

Qin Junyu had no choice but to stand up and pour himself a cup of tea.

"In a few days you will have to choose a maid to serve you. Don't bring that Xue here when the time comes." Qin Junyu warned her fearfully.

Nian Susu suppressed his smile and teased him deliberately: "I chose Jingxue first."

"Unless you are weak-willed, how can you be afraid of a palace maid?"

Qin Junyu immediately retorted: "How is that possible! Even if I don't have that intention towards her, there's no guarantee that she will resort to trickery. It's simply impossible to guard against."

He smacked his lips, then drank a cup of tea to calm himself.

Once bitten by Luo Yuanxiang, you will be afraid of women for the rest of your life.

Nian Susu did not argue with him about this matter anymore. It was indeed time to think carefully about choosing a maid. Zhihua had been busy counting her dowry and storing it in the warehouse, and she didn't even have anyone to serve her.

-

The next day after Qin Junyu was able to walk, he insisted on accompanying Nian Susu back to the prime minister's residence to make up for the fact that he was unable to accompany her on the day of her return.

Nian Susu knew that he wanted to explain to his parents, and she also wanted to go home, so she agreed.

Xiangfu.

Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong were so shocked that they were speechless when they saw Qin Junyu standing at the door of their house with crutches.

Nian Susu smiled and tried to adjust the atmosphere, "What's wrong? Don't you welcome your daughter and son-in-law home?"

Nian Chengyun reacted and quickly said, "No, no." He invited the two of them in, and a group of people walked in together.

Nian Chengyun couldn't help but nag Nian Susu: "Your Highness's legs haven't fully recovered yet. Running back and forth is not good for your health. It's okay for him to be willful, but why are you so ignorant?"

Qin Junyu heard this and explained with a smile: "I insisted on coming here, so father-in-law, please don't say anything about her."

When Nian Chengyun heard the word "father-in-law", he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is actually his son-in-law. What a thing to brag about!

Yang Yuerong was still upset about the fact that Qin Junyu did not accompany Nian Susu when he returned home, so she had a stern face.

"My father-in-law and mother-in-law can just call me A Yu in private. We are a family and we are the younger generation. It is natural for us to respect our elders."

Nian Chengyun nodded with satisfaction and began to praise Qin Junyu.

Nian Susu secretly complained: I didn’t expect this kid is so good at talking.

When it was time for lunch, Qin Junyu kept picking up food for Nian Susu.

Yang Yuerong also kept picking up food for Nian Susu, and the two seemed to be arguing with each other.

"Lingling doesn't like to eat this, and you don't even know this?" Yang Yuerong picked up the beef from Nian Susu's bowl, and the beef was picked up by Qin Junyu.

Qin Junyu, who had always felt something was wrong but couldn't tell what was wrong, finally discovered the problem.

It turned out that his mother-in-law hadn't smiled since he came home.

Qin Junyu felt that the situation regarding the return visit had to be explained formally and seriously.

Nian Cheng used his elbow to nudge Yang Yuerong and whispered, "What are you doing? The child finally came back, don't keep a straight face."

Once Yang Yuerong got angry, she wouldn't listen to anyone, not even Nian Chengyun, and she glared at him angrily.

Embarrassed Nian Susu bit his chopsticks, at a loss as to what to do.

The person who tied the bell must untie it. Since Qin Junyu was the one who caused the trouble, she would not say a word to help him.

Qin Junyu put down his chopsticks, cleared his throat, and looked at Yang Yuerong and Nian Chengyun sincerely: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, I must take this opportunity to explain myself. I didn't mean to not accompany Lingling on the day she came home. I was out on business and failed to get back in time."

"When I returned to Shengjing, I wanted to pick an auspicious day to come and apologize, but I broke my leg again, so I have been delaying it until now."

He smiled guiltily, "It's only natural for my father-in-law and mother-in-law to be angry. I..." He looked down and saw that there was only a bowl of soup at hand. He picked up the bowl and said, "I'll use the soup instead of wine to toast the two elders. I hope my father-in-law and mother-in-law will forgive me this time."

Qin Junyu, a proud and arrogant prince, was able to lower himself to admit his mistakes. Nian Chengyun felt that there was no need to put on airs and embarrass him. If they really cared about it, Prince Qin Junyu was the future monarch of Liuli. What qualifications did they have to ask him to apologize to them? This was an act of insubordination.

Yang Yuerong knew when to stop. Qin Junyu was so kind and came to apologize in person because he cared about his daughter. Thinking of this, she felt relieved.

Yang Yuerong's brows relaxed, her expression eased, and she picked up the bowl to return the favor to Qin Junyu.

The misunderstanding was finally cleared up.

After lunch, Qin Junyu and Nian Susu returned to the East Palace.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the prime minister's residence, and Nian Chengyun sent them there.

Qin Junyu got on the carriage first. Nian Susu held Yang Yuerong's hand and talked for a while before they reluctantly said goodbye.

"Dad, Mom, you should go back soon." Nian Susu waved his hand.

Yang Yuerong wiped her tears and leaned in Nian Chengyun's arms.

Qin Junyu leaned out half of his body and reached out to pull her.

Nian Susu lifted her skirt and got on the carriage. She glanced and found a familiar figure. There seemed to be a person hiding behind the stone lion next to the door.

She turned her head and saw that figure disappeared.

"What's wrong?" Qin Junyu looked in the direction she was staring at, but there was nothing.

Nian Susu was still doubtful, and she smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, I saw it wrong." She held his hand tightly and used his strength to get into the carriage.

The carriage wobbled as it drove towards the imperial palace. Nian Susu twirled his handkerchief, feeling heavy-hearted.

As soon as the carriage left, the person behind the stone lion appeared.

Nian Qiaoyue glared in the direction where Nian Susu left, the hatred in her eyes almost overflowing. She clenched her fists and gritted her back teeth.

"Nian Susu, I will make you pay the price!"

If it weren't for Nian Susu, her life would never have been so bad.

It was God's will that she didn't die under those fifty boards. It must be that God couldn't bear to see her die and let her live. She wanted revenge!

Nian Qiaoyue put on a veil and left the prime minister's residence.

East Palace.

Qin Junyu, leaning on crutches, returned to the east wing with the help of Nian Susu.

As soon as the door was closed, Qin Junyu threw his crutches aside and moved freely.

Nian Susu was also very tired from acting, so she poured herself a cup of tea, "Ayu..." She savored the name over and over again, smiling sweetly.

"Madam, do you want to call me A Yu too?" Qin Junyu didn't know when he was behind her. Nian Susu turned his head and he pressed down, supporting his hands on the table. Nian Susu was forced to lean down, with half of his body almost lying on the table.

Nian Susu's breathing became rapid. The temperature around her continued to rise. She swallowed and looked around.

She blushed and Qin Junyu smiled contentedly. He lifted her chin with one hand and stared at her lips and gave her a light kiss.
