The whole family is reborn, and their five-year-old child becomes the darling of the entire capital.
Chapter 77 was stunned by the scene before his eyes.
"Oh dear! How come Miss has so much blood on her body?" Yingrui looked at the bloodstains on Xiaoyuxi's inner clothes with some panic.
She was perfectly clean when she dressed the young master yesterday, but after just one night, so much blood appeared.
Yingrui nervously checked Xiaoyuxi from head to toe before finally relaxing and letting out a long sigh of relief.
It's good that you weren't injured.
Just as I was starting to feel relieved, I noticed bloodstains on the floor and on the small table by the window.
My heart skipped a beat.
This is?
In the end what happened?
Xiao Yuxi had just woken up and was still a little groggy. She looked at the scattered bloodstains on her snow-white undergarment with some confusion and bewilderment.
"Miss, after the Second Miss arrived yesterday, did anyone else come in?" She had seen the Second Miss enter the courtyard from afar yesterday and immediately avoided her, having no idea when the Second Miss left.
"Second sister?" Xiao Yuxi tilted her head. She didn't seem to have seen her second sister. "Did second sister come tonight?"
Yingrui nodded. "Yes, the second young lady came yesterday." As she spoke, she helped the young master change into clean clothes.
"Miss must have been fast asleep last night and has no recollection of it."
After combing Xiaoyuxi's hair into two small buns, I finally had time to clean up the bloodstains on the floor.
"By the way, Miss, the Yan Marquis's residence delivered a huge pile of fireworks early this morning. Would you like to go and take a look?"
Upon hearing the fireworks, Xiao Yuxi hurriedly swallowed the breakfast she hadn't yet finished. "I want to see!"
Yingrui quickly poured a glass of water and served it to her mistress. "Miss, please eat slowly. The fireworks have been put in the storeroom and can't be moved anytime soon."
Xiao Yuxi gulped down the water, then immediately jumped off the chair and ran out the door like a little firecracker.
The Duchess, who was pruning trees in the courtyard, watched as Xiao Yuxi ran out of the house and rushed straight outside. She was somewhat surprised. "How come she runs so fast, just like when she was a child in Yunnan?"
A maidservant chuckled, "I heard that the Yan family sent over a bunch of fireworks. Miss, you must be planning to set them off."
The Duchess frowned. "Why would the Marquis Yan's residence send fireworks for no reason?"
The Duke's Mansion and the Marquis Yan's Mansion, while not exactly mortal enemies, were at least completely unrelated, with neither wanting to acknowledge the other. Why would they inexplicably send over a bunch of fireworks?
Yesterday, the Duchess only knew that Yu Xi had been taken by Yun Shang to the national temple to offer incense. In her previous life, Yu Xi had a prophecy, which roughly meant that she had a good destiny and was a blessing to the Yue Kingdom.
Therefore, she was relieved to know that she was going to the National Temple and was completely unaware of the accident that happened yesterday.
The fact that the Empress was injured was kept very secret, and almost no one knew about it.
"I heard it was a gift from the second young lady of the Yan family."
The Duchess nodded. "Children's relationships are so simple. She must have given him some fireworks he liked. Let's go take a look."
Xiao Yuxi ran to the warehouse and looked at the yard, which was piled up to the brim, feeling a little lost.
Yingrui, who had finally caught up with her young master, was stunned by what she saw before her.
In the morning, the housekeeper said that the Yan family had sent fireworks and placed them in the storeroom. She wondered why they weren't sent directly to the courtyard.
Now the mystery is solved.
With so many fireworks, even if you set off one a day, you still couldn't finish them all in a year!
The warehouse was the largest courtyard in the Duke's mansion, and the walls had already been piled up all the way to the gate.
How many fireworks shops would it take to collect so many different types of fireworks?
"many!"
Xiao Yuxi's eyes gradually lit up, and she darted straight into the piled-up fireworks mountain.
When the Duchess arrived slowly, she was somewhat shocked by the scene before her.
She originally thought that children's gifts were just a token gesture.
It was the first time she had ever seen so many fireworks.
Fireworks are difficult to make and extremely expensive in the Moon Kingdom. Sending so many is like moving half of the Yan family's warehouse over here, isn't it?
The Duchess couldn't help but laugh when she imagined Princess Lanyue's expression upon learning of this.
Xiao Yuxi suddenly remembered something, turned her head and saw her aunt laughing. She quickly jumped into her aunt's arms with her short legs.
"Aunt!" Xiao Yuxi buried her head in her aunt's sweet and soft embrace.
"Let's set off fireworks!"
The Duchess smiled gently and coaxed her softly, "The fireworks will be clearer at night. It's still early, you won't be able to see them now."
Xiao Yuxi blinked and said "Oh" with some regret.
The Duchess simply carried her away slowly, having heard that setting off so many fireworks together was dangerous.
If it really was Princess Lanyue's instruction and permission, then we really need to keep our distance and have someone return these things later.
"Xixi, have you had fun these past two days? Do you like your older sister?" the Duchess asked her with a smile.
Xiao Yuxi was a little confused, but seeing that her aunt seemed to know nothing, she nodded silently. "Big sister is so gentle, she's so incredibly kind to Xixi. She never gets angry, and her brother-in-law, the Emperor, is also very kind to her. The Empress Dowager is also very kind, though she looks quite intimidating. The Imperial Temple is also a lot of fun."
"That old master even let Xixi touch his bald head. Yesterday, we played games she had never played before, and Xixi and Sister Shanshan even set off fireworks together. In the end, Second Brother came to play with Xixi himself. Xixi was very happy!"
Xiao Yuxi said happily, looking at her aunt with bright, sparkling eyes.
She tried her best to describe a wonderful day to her aunt using her limited vocabulary.
There wasn't a single complaint from beginning to end.
The Duchess, unaware of yesterday's events, smiled and said, "Your aunt hasn't seen your eldest sister in a long time. But it's good that she's healthy; your aunt is relieved to know she's healthy."
Xiao Yuxi blinked and lowered her head.
Xixi lied to her aunt. Xixi is a bad child.
When Xiao Yuxi saw her second sister's courtyard, she quickly struggled to jump down from her aunt's arms and ran straight into her second sister's room.
Seeing that she ran straight into the second young lady's study, Feng Yue quickly went forward, pulled the little maid out, and locked the study.
Such an important place as the study cannot be allowed to be entered and exited at will by the little girl.
"Godmother?" Xiao Yuxi belatedly realized what she had forgotten.
"Where is my third sister?"
That little girl?
She seemed to remember being sent away by the second young lady the next morning, but the second young lady did not elaborate on where she was sent.
Only the severely injured boy remained.
"Your third sister has left safely. Nothing happened to her."
Xiao Yuxi blinked, somewhat bewildered, "Isn't she going to keep looking for her mother?"
He just left like that?
Why didn't my third sister tell her?
Xiao Yuxi felt a little wronged.
