After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother

Yun Zhou got Yun Jiuzhao's answer and did not ask any further questions.

She was just curious and wanted to gossip a little bit, not to urge marriage.

After all, for Yun Jiuzhao, it doesn’t matter whether he has someone he likes or not. If he hasn’t met someone he really wants to spend his life with, it’s better to live alone and feel more comfortable.

Some people are born free, and love has never been a necessity in their lives. Perhaps it is influenced by the concubine, or perhaps they are born that way. In any case, Yun Jiuzhao is such a person.

Yun Zhou watched Yun Jiuzhao and Su Qingluo playing chess. The moves of these two people were always unexpected.

Anyway, Yun Zhou felt that she could not think of it.

Yun Jiuzhao's calculation ability is sometimes really terrifying.

When Wen Zhimiao and Shi Wanyue got up, the game between Yun Jiuzhao and Su Qingluo was nearing its end.

It was obvious that Su Qingluo was about to be defeated and it was almost impossible for him to turn things around.

Wen Zhimiao pulled Shi Wanyue to stand behind Su Qingluo. Shi Wanyue was naturally a little better at playing Go than Wen Zhimiao.

But she was very principled and just looked without saying anything.

In the end, Su Qingluo was defeated. Su Qingluo put down the chess piece and laughed: "It seems that Jiu Zhao and I were very restrained when we played chess in the palace before."

Yun Jiuzhao smiled shyly, "No, I just played chess with a little prodigy a few days ago. She is really extraordinary in chess at such a young age. Now she is only ten years old, so I have to be very careful when playing chess with her."

"Is Yitong so powerful now?" Wen Zhimiao hadn't cared about this girl named Su Yitong for some time.

She was a girl from the Su family. Su Yubing discovered that this child was gifted during a family assessment and selected her out.

Then they discovered that this child was indeed amazing, a true child prodigy. He could compose poetry at the age of five, had an excellent memory, and his arithmetic was far superior to that of his peers.

From then on, Su Yubing hired a special teacher for her. At the age of five, she was admitted to the Imperial College, and her entrance scores surpassed many children older than her.

It is indeed extraordinary that he can now play chess with Yun Jiuzhao.

"Yes."

"Su Yubing won't let you be a teacher again, right?" Wen Zhimiao asked with a smile.

"She does want to, but I'm lazy and won't teach her. It's good enough that I can play chess with her when I have time. She is the head of the Su family, so naturally she should teach the children of the Su family herself." Yun Jiuzhao shook his head.

She doesn't want to be a teacher anymore. Teaching is not suitable for her.

"Okay, then you can take a few years off." Yun Zhou said from the side.

"Why don't you let me have a good rest?" Wen Zhimiao looked at Yun Zhou and muttered in dissatisfaction.

"You are biased." Wen Zhimiao snorted.

Yun Zhou ignored her and looked at Shi Wanyue: "Wanyue, you should take care of her. She is so old, but she is so childish every day. How can you control the court officials if she is so immature?"

Shi Wanyue was watching her from the side and couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Miao Miao was very well behaved when she went to court." Shi Wanyue still couldn't bear to blame her. After all, no one knew Wen Zhimiao's efforts better than her.

"Just spoil her." Yun Zhou smiled and shook his head.

"Will it be useful for me to ask you to rest? Are you willing to do so? Although Beirong has asked for peace, many tribes are still unwilling to accept it, and the trade route to the west has not yet been fully restored."

"It's your grand ambitions that haven't been realized yet, not my ideals that haven't been completed yet. You won't take a break even when I ask you to." Yun Zhou looked at her with a smile.

"How could I not know what you are thinking?" Yun Zhou gave her a look of disdain.

"You really are my mother. You know so much."

Listening to her mumbling, Yun Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's only been a short time since we last met, and you don't recognize me?"

After saying that, he sighed quietly: "Alas, after all, she is someone else's daughter, I can't raise her well. It's a pity that I raised you with all my hard work..."

Wen Zhimiao quickly went over and covered her mouth: "Mom, you are my biological mother, shut up, please."

Others couldn't help but laugh.

From time to time, lighthearted laughter could be heard from the courtyard. There was no emperor or emperor emeritus here, just one family.

After chatting for a while, Yun Zhou and Su Qingluo asked them whether they wanted to go out and play this afternoon or take them around tomorrow.

"Let's do it tomorrow. I don't want to move today." Wen Zhimiao said softly.

Yun Jiuzhao also agreed with her proposal: "Tomorrow."

"Okay, then how about making some pastries at home this afternoon? I have just learned some, would you like to try them?" Yun Zhou asked with a smile.

Yun Jiuzhao shook his head. When he came in today, he found that many places in the yard had been newly cleaned.

As expected, Su Qingluo spoke after she finished speaking: "You should take a break. You have been busy all morning. If you want to eat, just go out and buy something."

Wen Zhimiao walked behind Yun Zhou and put his hand on her shoulder: "Mom, aren't you tired?"

"You've been busying around since I came. I'm sure you'll be exhausted. Mother won't let me come next time. Please take a break. If you really want to show off your cooking skills, I suggest you open a restaurant."

"Go away, I won't drive. I'm so tired." Yun Zhou directly rejected her.

Wen Zhimiao curled his lips: "Then play mahjong with me. Do you have mahjong here?"

"No, but we can go to the teahouse. Many people play mahjong here. The weather is nice today. How about drinking tea and playing mahjong?" Yun Zhou suggested.

"Very good." Wen Zhimiao held Shi Wanyue's hand and said to Yun Zhou and Su Qingluo, "Let's go."

Wen Zhimiao was even planning to have someone prepare an extra carriage, but Yun Zhou and Su Qingluo said they could just walk a few steps to the destination, so they went on foot.

Two tables were set up, and the three diabolo masters and apprentices sat at one table. Wen Zhimiao asked them if they wanted to play, and the three of them shook their heads stiffly.

Wen Zhimiao didn't force them. If they didn't like playing mahjong, there was no need to force them.

The other five people took turns.

Yun Jiuzhao has learned his lesson now. He knows not to calculate too much when playing mahjong, otherwise it will not be a good experience for others.

The three people next to them just sat there, and when Wen Zhimiao asked them if they wanted to play any other games, they all said no.

In the end, Wen Zhimiao didn't care anymore and just let them do what they wanted.

It’s just that there are a lot of people out playing today, and when people see three people occupying the table but not playing, it’s inevitable that some come over to ask about it.

There were even some who were extremely familiar with the group. When they saw the three people sitting there, they thought they were short of someone, so they sat down and asked them if they wanted to come.

The three masters and apprentices felt embarrassed, but they didn't know how to refuse. After all, none of them were very outgoing people.

In the end, it was Shi Wanyue who came forward to help them out.

After persuading the people to leave with a smile, she simply sat down and said, "Let's try it. Even a bowstring cannot be kept tight all the time. Just treat it as a leisure activity. The master will not blame you. There is no need to be so nervous."

Finally, under her persuasion, the three masters and apprentices started playing. Shi Wanyue patiently explained the rules, and after playing one round, they almost understood them.
