The daughter of the Marquis is too delicate, the abstinent prince pinches her waist and loves her

Chapter 17 Familiar Nursery Rhymes

That was the only time he saw Yun Qing as a child. He hugged her lovingly and said, "Xiao Jintang has a really nice voice. Who taught you to sing this nursery rhyme?"

Xiao Yunqing smiled like a little sun, with two dimples on her delicate face: "It was mother, mother taught me!"

There was some movement in his eyes, and he looked at Yun Qing in a daze.

When the girl smiled, her cute dimples were particularly obvious, but he had never seen them on Sheng Jintang's face...

With a "pop", the teacup in his hand fell to the ground.

Ye Jinchen raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

Sheng Yukun came back to his senses, bowed his head and apologized: "I just thought of some past events and lost my composure for a moment. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Ye Jinchen put down the glass cup, his obsidian eyes revealing an unseen depth of contemplation. He looked at Yun Qing playing in the garden, and had some guesses in his mind: "Has the Marquis of Zhenbei ever seen Yun Qing before?"

Sheng Yukun smiled and said, "I've never seen it before."

"Yun Qing is an important person to this king. If you continue to disrespect San Sheng Tang, the marriage with the Marquis' Mansion will be cancelled."

Sheng Yukun was ashamed and said in fear: "I will follow the prince's instructions."

Ye Jinchen meant that his marriage with Sheng Jintang had not been annulled?
After respectfully seeing the two off, Sheng Yi ran and jumped in the mansion. Sheng Yukun looked at him with relief. Listening to him singing the nursery rhyme that Yun Qing taught him, he remembered what the girl looked like when she was a child.

"Ms. Yunqing looks exactly like our eldest daughter. When I first saw her, I thought she was our eldest daughter."

"Yes, not only the face, but also the figure is somewhat similar."

The two maids working beside the pillar were discussing secretly. Sheng Yukun frowned and stepped out of the door with his hands behind his back.

When she saw Sheng Yukun, the maid who was originally talking and laughing shut up, bowed to Sheng Yukun, and then lowered her head to work seriously.

Sheng Yukun wanted to ask something, but after thinking for a moment, he didn't say anything.

"Sheep, sheep, sheep, jump over the flower wall..." Sheng Yi in the front yard sang for a while, scratched his head, ran to Sheng Yukun, raised his hand and pulled his sleeve, and said, "Daddy, daddy, the dog is making fire, the kitten...what is the kitten doing? Yi'er forgot."

Sheng Yukun stroked his head and said with a smile: "Daddy can't sing, go ask big sister."

After he finished speaking, Sheng Yi nodded and ran out.

Sheng Yukun looked solemn. That Yun Qing was very mysterious.

In the evening, Zhi Xing pushed open Sheng Jintang's door, looked at the shattered mess on the floor, sighed helplessly, closed the door, and said, "Are you afraid that the Marquis doesn't know that he has something to hide?"

Sheng Jintang curled up on the throne, with dried tears on his face, and his delicate peach blossom eyes were panicked: "Zhi Xing, I'm so scared. If I can't kill Yun Qing, she will shake me out! Now that Sheng Yi has recovered, the old lady doesn't like me, what role do I have in the mansion?"

Zhi Xing saw that her forehead was black and she was afraid that she might have a bloody disaster in the near future. She closed her eyes and said, "Miss, run away quickly."

"What?" Sheng Jintang got off the throne, walked quickly to her, and said, "Where can I run to? This is my home!"

"The Marquis' Mansion is no longer safe for you."

Sheng Jintang bit his lip and asked, "Is there a way to crack it?"

Zhi Xing looked at her and said, "Do you really want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Hearing this, Sheng Jintang's eyes lit up: "So, you have a solution?"

"I just read your fortune and it turns out that you can still stay in the mansion for a while." "Really?"

Zhi Xing nodded and said, "You know so many secrets of the Bai family, and her life is in your hands, so she will naturally protect you. Besides, didn't Prince Ye come today and not cancel the engagement? You must seize this opportunity."

Sheng Jintang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a chuckle, "That's good."

There was a dark look in Zhixing's eyes. It was not a good thing for her to stay in the mansion. Whether she could survive depended on her luck.

The next day.

San Sheng Tang has reopened. As for the fact that it was closed a few days ago, Yun Qing was just out for a few days to look for medicine.

Yun Qing was able to "come back to life", and the people were very happy. Even the arrogant Sheng Yukun came to express his gratitude in person.

Yun Qing's eyes lit up as she watched the boxes of silver being carried into the house by the servants. Sheng Yukun sat opposite her, and the maid presented her with exquisite snacks. He said with a polite smile, "Miss Yun Qing, I have come to visit you today. In addition to the 10,000 taels of medical fee I originally agreed to give you, I will also give you another 1,000 taels to help you repair the Sansheng Hall, as well as some silks, satins, antiques, and treasures. It's not a small token of respect."

There were so many gifts that filled up the San Sheng Hall. No matter how angry Yun Qing was originally, he was now happy.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, she raised the corners of her lips in a good mood, opened the lid of the pastry plate, picked up an exquisite pastry to taste, but after just one bite, she frowned, covered her lips with her hands, and spit it out.

Sheng Yukun frowned and said in a low voice: "Miss Yunqing, what do you mean? The cakes made by my mansion are not to your taste?"

Yun Qing turned around and searched in the closet. He found the long-sealed porcelain bottle, took out the pills and swallowed them. Then he exhaled lightly, sat back in his seat, and said, "My Lord, Yun Qing did not mean to offend you. It's just that I have been allergic to almonds since I was a child and cannot eat them."

Hearing this, Sheng Yukun's face became awkward and he said, "I was inconsiderate. I'm really sorry."

Yun Qing smiled faintly and helped him out: "When eating snacks on weekdays, you can tell whether almonds are added by just smelling them. However, the pastries in the Marquis' Mansion are made with great care, with a faint floral scent that covers up the small amount of almond powder mixed in the filling. You really can't taste it without taking a bite."

"Someone, withdraw." Sheng Yukun said calmly to the maid behind him.

Speaking of almonds, Sheng Yukun recalled that ten years ago, he and his brother Sheng Yuting were guarding the northern border. A letter from home came, making Sheng Yuting anxious.

"I wonder which blind girl gave almonds to my precious daughter!"

"Xingren? What happened to Jintang?"

"Jintang has been allergic to almonds since childhood. He will get a rash if he eats even a little bit!"

That time, Sheng Yuting fought bravely and worked without sleep for several days and nights before he defeated the enemy. He then rushed home non-stop just to see his precious daughter as soon as possible, becoming a veritable daughter slave.

Sheng Yukun's heart twitched, and shock was revealed in his eyes.

Yun Qing walked to the box, picked up the heavy silver ingot, and said, "My Lord, you really keep your word. Are you really just expressing your gratitude with such sincerity?"

"I'm sorry for offending you before. I came here to apologize to Miss Yunqing."

Yun Qing smiled lightly, feeling proud inside, and said, "My Lord, you are straightforward, I can let bygones be bygones."

She politely poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of him.

Seeing Yun Qing's gentle attitude, Sheng Yukun also smiled happily: "Yier... misses you very much."

"Oh?" Yun Qing's peach blossom eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm, "Does the Marquis' Mansion really welcome me?"
