“What nonsense are you spouting!” Yu Hongyan quickly covered her daughter’s mouth. He was afraid that Shao Youyue would feel awkward.
After all, she was Shao Youyue’s sister-in-law.
Shao Youyue was indeed embarrassed, but she was already here, and her eldest brother was especially good to her. She could not ignore her, so she could only get up and go out to take a look.
Xue Yan didn’t have any feelings for Shao Yucen. To him, they were just relatives. Even the children in the family could tell, so how could she not? For some reason, he was a little nervous as he stole a glance at Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue was still the same as usual, not having much of a reaction.
He did not know whether he should be happy or unhappy with her lack of response.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Shao Yucen was helped out of the carriage by a servant girl. As soon as she got out, she praised Xue Shi for being sensible. When she saw Shao Youyue come out, she immediately put on a terrified expression and quickly went up to greet her.
Shao Youyue quickly supported her and smiled awkwardly. “Why didn’t you tell us that you were coming? We already started eating. Otherwise, we would have waited for you. Come on, let’s go in.”
Shao Yucen responded very meekly as she smiled and said, “Father said that he hadn’t seen you for a while, so I said that I would come to visit on his behalf. He immediately agreed and let me come.”
Shao Youyue could only brace herself when she saw Shao Yucen’s servant girl and coachman waiting at the entrance of the courtyard. They seemed to be waiting to move things in. She smiled stiffly and asked Shao Yucen’s luggage to be moved into the guest room in her three-room house, which was also the room that Shao Yucen had stayed in before.
The servant girl and the coachman had come here before, so they were very familiar with the place. When they saw Shao Youyue gesture with her eyes, they quickly responded respectfully and sent the luggage in the carriage to the three-door residence.
Since she came all the way here, Shao Yucen would definitely stay for at least a few days before leaving.
Xue Shi’s eyes darted around before he enthusiastically helped to move the things. As for what he was up to, only he knew.
Yu Hongyan, Liu Guixia, and the other adults helped. When Shao Yucen and Shao Youyue entered the central room, the children obediently ate their food. No one said anything.
The moment Shao Yucen entered, she first bowed to the Emperor Xue Yan and called him cousin according to her status. Then, she bowed to the retired Emperor Hao and called him uncle. Then, she bowed to Xue Dafu and called him High Duke. Then, she bowed to Liu Guixia and called him High Duke’s wife. Then, she bowed to Xue Yihu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Sifu and called them Prince’s. Then, she bowed to Li Hehua, Yu Hongyan, Pei Fufu, and Princess Jin and called them Princess. After that, she stopped.
She acted as if she was a young lady of a noble family, she was extremely polite and appropriate.
When Shao Yucen first came, Liu Guixia and the others had stopped her so that she didn’t have to do this. However, when Shao Yucen came the second time, it was still the same. Liu Guixia had stopped her again, but when Shao Yucen came the third time, she still insisted on doing this… After that, Liu Guixia and the others did not stop her from addressing everyone formally.
Therefore, when they saw that Shao Yucen was finally not going to greet anyone, Liu Guixia and the others hurriedly called Shao Yucen over and asked her to sit down and eat.
She was Shao Youyue’s niece. As usual, she was arranged to sit beside Shao Youyue.
Shao Yucen looked at Jiang Yue sitting opposite her withXue Yan again. Looking at this scheme made her feel extremely dissatisfied. She felt that whether it was in terms of closeness or anything else, she should be sitting beside Xue Yan.
