Aunt Mei returned so long ago, yet Ye Jin had never visited their settled Pear Garden.
This was her first time at the Pear Garden.
The Pear Garden was not as large as the courtyard where the Ye Family and the Old Lady lived; since it was newly built, Ye Jin originally thought it could not compare to their residence.
But she had never anticipated that upon stepping into the Pear Garden, it was as if she had entered an earthly paradise.
A pond had been built in the courtyard, even featuring a fountain in the center.
Ye Jin, who lived in the deep and spacious residence, had never seen such a mechanical superpower; she was immediately stunned by it.
"Third Lady, what brings you here?" Liuliu had been walking Old Wang and took a long time to react after seeing Ye Jin.
Now in broad daylight, Ye Jin turned her gaze to Liuliu, or more precisely to Old Wang in Liuliu’s arms.
When Ye Jin was younger, she had the good fortune of going out with her legitimate eldest sister and saw from afar a dog held by the Princess, which looked quite similar to the one in Liuliu’s hands.
"I came to see Aunt Mei," Ye Jin was shaken inside but kept a calm façade, "After all, Aunt Mei has been here for so long and I haven’t had the chance to visit her, right? Today I happened to be free, so I came to see her."
As she spoke, she walked toward the main hall.
Liuliu, having followed Shaohua for so long, had also gained some insights.
Ye Jin spoke nicely. Aunt Mei had been back for almost a year, and it was only after the Fourth Young Master became the Number One Scholar that she found the time.
Liuliu could hardly believe her.
Seeing Ye Qingweng without fear, let alone now when she merely saw Ye Jin, Liuliu said, "Third Lady, please wait, I am going to inform Aunt Mei."
Ye Jin smiled as she waited outside, yet felt quite uncomfortable inside.
She was not accustomed to the people in Aunt Mei’s courtyard suddenly taking on an air of superiority.
In the past, whenever she wanted to visit Aunt Mei, Aunt Mei was too happy to wait, let alone make her wait outside, right?
It was only now that Ye Jin realized things were truly different.
After a moment, Liuliu came out to let Ye Jin in.
It was currently February, and the weather in the Imperial City was still cold, with each breath forming a white mist.
The Ye Residence was not as glorious as it appeared on the surface, and even more so considering Ye Qingweng was merely a minor fourth-ranked official who couldn’t bear to burn a lot of top-quality charcoal in the old woman’s room.
Let alone Ye Jin, who had only received it once.
The rest were ordinary charcoals that produced smoke and stung the eyes. After trying it once, Ye Jin preferred to be cold rather than use it again.
But unexpectedly, Aunt Mei’s room was as warm as spring.
No hint of charcoal smell was detectable inside the room.
"It’s Jin’er," said Aunt Mei as Liuliu handed her a glass Liuli cup sent by Ye Liu, which she set aside without looking closely, "Do you have any matter today?"
"I came to see you and my Fourth Brother," Ye Jin lowered her eyes demurely, about to go forward and massage Aunt Mei’s shoulders, "Where is my Fourth Brother?"
Aunt Mei scoffed.
She opened her mouth to say something, but then someone announced the Fourth Young Master had returned.
Aunt Mei stood up with a "swoosh," passed the hand warmer to Shaohua, whose body was still covered in snowflakes, and then took his cloak. She draped the wool cloak Liuliu brought over Shaohua and said, "Why did you go out for drinks today?"
She had not expected it to be true. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
