Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder is Very Leisurely

When Yu Nuan brought Hong Hui out, breakfast was already laid out on the table.

Honghui had just recovered from a serious illness, and Yu Nuan instructed the kitchen to prepare only light and simple meals.

Yu Nuan and Hong Hui sat down and were about to start eating when Wu Mama reminded them, "Madam, the master hasn't gotten up yet."

When Honghui heard that his father was in his mother's courtyard, he quickly put down his chopsticks and waited for Fourth Master to eat with him.

Yu Nuan didn't care about Fourth Master. She ladled a bowl of soup for Hong Hui, placed it in front of him, and said, "Don't worry about your father. Your body can't go hungry for long."

"But don't we really need to wait for Father?"

Honghui hesitated, afraid that his father would be angry if he found out.

"No need, your father would never see you go hungry."

As soon as Yu Nuan finished speaking, Fourth Master stepped in through the threshold and asked with a smile, "What are you two talking about?"

The Fourth Prince went to bed late last night, so he woke up quite late this morning. This is the first time in many years that the Fourth Prince has gotten up so late.

"It's nothing, sir. You're awake. It's time for breakfast."

Yu Nuan did not get up to greet the Fourth Master, and instead pressed down Hong Hui, who wanted to greet him, saying, "You are still weak, don't move around. Why are you being so polite with your father at home?"

Fourth Master quickly added, "Yes, listen to your mother. There's no need for such formalities at home."

After the Fourth Master sat down, the maidservant immediately set out the tableware for him.

Throughout the meal, Yu Nuan ate her breakfast in silence, except for taking care of Hong Hui by serving her food a few times.

Fourth Master wasn't a talkative person, and Honghui was even more afraid of him. He quietly lowered his head and ate his meal. The three of them, even at the same dining table, were practically strangers.

As breakfast was being finished, a maid came in to report: "Master, the First Lady and the Second Lady are at the door, here to pay their respects."

Yu Nuan was puzzled as to why Li Shi, who hadn't visited for a year, had come today.

When Fourth Master heard that Madam Li had arrived, he coughed lightly, feeling somewhat uneasy.

This drew Yu Nuan's attention to the Fourth Master, and Yu Nuan then realized that Li Shi's intention in coming to the door was probably not to pay her respects, but rather that she couldn't sit still after hearing that the Fourth Master had stayed in the main courtyard last night.

The maid didn't hear Yu Nuan's instructions and regretted coming in to make the call. The master had finally managed to stay in the wife's room, and this wife was making her presence known so early in the morning. The maid was worried that Yu Nuan would be angry.

Yu Nuan had no idea what the people in the room were thinking. She calmly put down her bowl and chopsticks and said, "Please come in, Consort."

After speaking, Yu Nuan looked at Hong Hui beside her and asked with concern, "Hong Hui, have you eaten?"

"Mother, I'm done eating."

Honghui looked at Yu Nuan with worry in his eyes. Now Honghui understood some things and knew that his father did not like his mother, but only liked Hongli's mother. Every time Hongli's mother came to his mother's courtyard, after she left, his mother would lock herself in her room alone. Honghui knew that his mother was secretly crying.

When Ms. Li entered, she saw a harmonious scene of the family of three, which was somewhat jarring to her eyes.

However, Lady Li dared not be disrespectful in front of the Fourth Prince and bowed to the Fourth Prince's wife to pay her respects.

After Yu Nuan and the others finished performing the full ceremony, they nodded.

Yu Nuan's current attitude towards Li Shi is neither to make things difficult for her nor to be enthusiastic.

Li walked directly up to Fourth Master and said in a sweet voice, "Master, you didn't come last night, and Hongqing kept crying and asking for her father."

Hongqing is the daughter of Fourth Master and Li Shi. Fourth Master has few children now, only two daughters, so he has always doted on this youngest daughter born to him by Li Shi.

"Yes, I'll go see her after I finish my work today."

The Fourth Prince finished eating, put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "I have other things to attend to. If you need anything, please send someone to my study."

"Ah."

Yu Nuan responded.

When the Fourth Prince left, Madam Li reached out to straighten his collar. Suddenly, she seemed to have done something wrong, immediately lowered her hand, and apologized to Yu Nuan, saying, "I'm sorry, Madam, I've always done it this way."

Yu Nuan's expression remained unchanged, and she didn't even spare a glance for the couple showing affection.

Fourth Master also looked at Yu Nuan. For some reason, he felt a little guilty and immediately said, "I'm leaving."

After Fourth Master left, Madam Li turned her gaze to Yu Nuan.

Honghui feigned concern, "Madam, how is the First Prince's health now? I was extremely worried when I heard the news yesterday."

"never mind."

Seeing that Honghui's complexion did not resemble that of someone seriously ill, Lady Li thought that the eldest prince would not die this time.

A short while later, Li left.

Yu Nuan played games with Hong Hui, and when she found an opportunity, she gave Hong Hui the pills she had bought from the system shop.

That evening, Fourth Master came to Jade Warm Courtyard again. This time, he did not stay overnight and left after visiting Honghui.

Yu Nuan thought that he must have gone to Li's courtyard.

Yu Nuan no longer has any feelings for the Fourth Master. The original owner also completely gave up on the Fourth Master after dying in her previous life. So no matter how much the Fourth Master dotes on Li Shi now, Yu Nuan will not feel sad at all.

Yu Nuan sat under the lamp, looking at the household's account books.

Granny Wu came in and whispered in Yu Nuan's ear, "Madam, the master just left Consort Li's courtyard and did not stay overnight."

Yu Nuan didn't care about any of this and said to Granny Wu, "From now on, you don't need to tell me any news from the Li family's courtyard."

It's fine as it is now. The two of them don't bother each other. How much love Li Shi and Fourth Master have is their business, and Yu Nuan won't be jealous.

In this world, it's a pipe dream for Yu Nuan to divorce Fourth Master. Since she can't leave, Yu Nuan treats Fourth Master like a boss, and managing the mansion is like managing company affairs for the boss.

Granny Wu didn't know if her mistress was just saying things out of anger. She had finally managed to reconcile with the master, but Granny Wu could tell that Yu Nuan was now somewhat cold towards the fourth master.

If the princess continues like this, Granny Wu is worried that the two will go back to what they used to be.

“My lady, I think the master is paying more attention to our main courtyard now. If you soften your attitude, maybe you and the master can get back to how things were before.”

Granny Wu only dared to offer such advice because she was the wet nurse of the Fujin (princess's wife).

Yu Nuan knew that Granny Wu was doing it for her own good, but she didn't need it right now.

"Granny, all I hope for now is that Honghui can grow up safely. I don't care about anything else."

Granny Wu understood that the Princess Consort had truly given up this time, and shook her head with a sigh.

A few days later, the Fourth Prince invited the imperial physician to examine Honghui's pulse.

Physician Li said, "The eldest prince is now in good health and has recovered."

Looking at Honghui, who was recovering very well, Physician Li was a little puzzled. Last time, all the physicians had diagnosed that the eldest prince of the Fourth Prince's family was beyond saving, but they didn't know that he had suddenly regained his vitality. The old men were even discussing it together.

In the end, no conclusion was reached; it was believed that the eldest prince was favored by heaven.
