Su Xiaoxiao lowered her diaphragm and shouted, hitting the window.

The wind from her palm seemed to contain a huge amount of internal force, and the window lattice fluttered open.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “If you think you can kill me, just try.”

Fifteen minutes later, the door to the west courtyard creaked open.

Ping’er held the oil-paper umbrella and gave the flowers that Madam Wei had personally planted to Wei Ting.

After leaving the Wei family, Su Xiaoxiao sat under the tree and counted peaches. “My father’s, Ergou’s, Dahu’s, Erhu’s…”

Yuchi Xiu resigned himself to fate and held an umbrella for her at the side. He asked speechlessly, “You’re really bold. You even dare to threaten your future mother-in-law. If Lord finds out…”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows. “Then you’re an accomplice!”

Yuchi Xiu was dumbfounded. “How did I become an accomplice?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “You slapped her just now!”

“That’s because you asked me…” Yuchi Xiu realized that he had been tricked.

This girl was clearly dragging him down on purpose!

“Despicable!”

“Thank you for letting me win.”

Yuchi Xiu gritted his teeth in hatred. “However, is it really fine for you to tell

Madam Wei about the mole like this?”

He thought that she suddenly asked him to bring her to the Wei family to persuade Wei Ting to come back. He did not expect her to search Madam Wei’s orchard without a word.

How bold was this girl’s style? Moreover, it was completely unpredictable.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Do you think she really doesn’t know that there’s a mole in the Wei family?”

“Huh?” Yuchi Xiu was confused.

Su Xiaoxiao recalled her short confrontation with Madam Wei in the house. “She’s not a simple woman. She discovered me long ago, earlier than I thought… Perhaps when I went to take her pulse in the afternoon, she already recognized me as the person hiding behind the curtain last night.”

Yuchi Xiu shook his head. “How could she recognize you? You pulled the curtain back then, and she didn’t see your face!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Scent.”

“Air… scent?” Yuchi Xiu didn’t understand.

He still preferred to chat with Su Cheng. Just like Wei Ting, the little girl always made him feel that his brain was not enough.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I just noticed that other than her hobby of arranging flowers, she also likes to dry the petals and make them into spices. There are more jars of spices in the house than my family’s medicine jars. Spice experts are very sensitive to smells and can completely distinguish fragrance and people.”

Yuchi Xiu subconsciously sniffed his body.

There was only the smell of sweat. It was so smelly…

He stuck out his tongue and retched.

About a century later, Yuchi Xiu finally digested a little of the content. “Wait, according to you, she recognized you in the afternoon but didn’t expose you on the spot?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Her composure is terrifying, right? This is definitely not something that can be cultivated overnight. No matter how much such a person likes something, she can pretend to be very disgusted, right?”

Yuchi Xiu looked at the sky. After using all his wisdom, he finally understood a little of the truth of Su Xiaoxiao’s words.

“Are you trying to say that… she actually cares about Lord and deliberately pretended to distance herself from him? Why did she do that?”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the big and red peach in her pocket and said in a low voice, “Because she wants to protect him, and also because she’s been living under the surveillance of the mole.’

The two of them squatted by the roadside and spoke. A carriage sped past, almost splashing mud on Su Xiaoxiao’s face.

Yuchi Xiu hurriedly used the oil paper umbrella to block it.

After the carriage passed, Yuchi Xiu muttered unhappily, “If you don’t have eyes next time, I’ll remove your wheels!”

Su Xiaoxiao turned to look. “Eh? It’s a carriage heading for the Wei family. It’s so late. Who’s back?”

“Oh, that’s not the Wei family’s carriage. It’s the Guo family’s.”

Yuchi Xiu recognized the coachman.

Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously, “The Guo family? Why is the Guo family here in the middle of the night?”

Could it be that the Guo family had come to demand an explanation because she had whipped Guo Lingxi?

No, they had yet to marry. If they really wanted an explanation, they would go to the Qin family. At the very least, it would be the Su family.

“They’re here to see Madam Wei.”

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao looking at him in confusion, Yuchi Xiu’s aura instantly increased. “You don’t know? Lord and Guo Lingxi are cousins, and Guo Lingxi’s mother is Madam Wei’s cousin!”

Su Xiaoxiao had an epiphany. “Oh, so they are cousins.”

Yuchi Xiu said, “The two sisters married into the capital from Lingnan. One married into the Wei family, and the other into the Guo family. They were once a legend in the capital.”

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “How so?”

Yuchi Xiu liked Su Xiaoxiao’s inexperience!

He hugged her and said with a sense of accomplishment, “I’ve never heard of the two beauties of Lingnan. The two of them were top-notch great beauties in Lingnan when they were young!”

Su Xiaoxiao thought of Wei Ting’s appearance and didn’t doubt Yuchi Xiu’s words.

“Are the sisters close?” she asked.

Yuchi Xiu said, “Of course. Madam Guo comes to the Wei family to visit Madam Wei every month. In the first few years, she came herself. Later on, her body was weak and she often recuperated at home, so she asked the servants to visit Madam Wei. Madam Wei will occasionally visit her. In the past few years, after Madam Wei moved to the west courtyard, she rarely left the courtyard. It’s almost the Guo family who comes to visit.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Is this why Madam Wei decided on Wei Liulang and Guo

Lingxi’s marriage?”

Yuchi Xiu said, “Their marriage was not decided by Madam Wei. In fact, Madam

Wei objected to this marriage for a while.”

The rain in the capital lasted for three days.

On this night, all the city gates were closed, but a carriage suddenly drove over from the west city gate.

The carriage stopped at the city gate. The coachman looked up at the guards on the city tower and said, “Open the city gate!”

The guard ignored him.

The coachman took out the token at his waist. The other party naturally could not see it from this distance, but it did not stop the coachman from taking advantage of the situation.

“The Prime Minister’s token is here. Open the city gate!”

Hearing that it was the Prime Minister’s token, the guard was stunned for a moment before hurriedly going downstairs to confirm.

When he confirmed that the legitimate son of the Prime Minister was sitting in the carriage, the guard called himself blind and respectfully invited him into the city.

The Palace Academy was scheduled to hold the riding and archery examination the day after the written test, but because of the heavy rain, classes were suspended for three days, and Guo Lingxi idled at home for three days.

Just as she was about to fall sick from boredom, the maidservant ran into the house excitedly. “Princess! Eldest Young Master is back!” Guo Lingxi’s eyes lit up. “Really?”

“Of course it’s true. Would Big Brother lie to you?”

Following a hearty man’s voice, a tall young man strode in.

He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He was handsome and looked a little similar to Guo Lingxi, but he was more cold and heroic than her.

“Brother!”

Guo Lingxi pounced into Guo Huan’s arms like a skylark..
