Dong Shu was the closest to Ye Xuan. Seeing him just reveal such an expression, Dong Shu took the initiative to hold his hand and comforted him: "Before, Xuan Ge'er's body wasn't well because of how young she is, but now, it's getting older and older.

While Dong Shu was speaking, she saw Ye Xuan looking at him with both nervousness and anticipation, and immediately continued: "Xuan Ge'er wants to believe Third Aunt, Third Aunt will not lie to you."

If it was anyone else, Dong Shu might not have taken the initiative to say these words, but when she saw Ye Xuan today, she felt that she liked him.

Such a obedient child. Thinking about how he had been dragged down by her body and could not do many interesting things, Dong Shu felt her heart ache for him.

Regarding what Dong Shu had just said, if it was someone else who said it, Ye Xuan would definitely not believe it.

But for some reason, when he looked at his third aunt's serious expression, a bold idea popped into his mind.

What Third Aunt said might be true.

Because he kept hinting at himself in his heart, under Dong Shu's attentive gaze, Ye Xuan's face quickly turned red.

"Xuan Ge'er trusts Third Aunt." After saying this, Ye Xuan awkwardly looked up at Dong Shu, and continued, "Xuan Ge'er likes Third Aunt."

Hearing Ye Xuan's words, everyone in the hall laughed.

When Xu Nuanwen gave a few more words of advice to Ye Xuan, it was already time for lunch.

From the moment the servants started serving the dishes, Dong Shu became a little nervous, afraid that the specially prepared food, Aunt Sister, her brother-in-law and her three nephews, would be dissatisfied.

As for Xu Yanzhu, they had eaten so many meals together before that Dong Shu knew very well what she liked to eat.

Fortunately, Dong Shu's hard work was not in vain. Not only Xu Nuanwen and Ye Jingxing, but even Ye Xuan had eaten more than usual.

Seeing that Ye Xuan had eaten a lot, both Xu Nuanwen and Ye Jingxing were extremely happy.

Due to the condition of Ye Xuan's body, he couldn't eat too much today. Xu Nuanwen even asked Dong Shu for the menu, preparing to go back to her house and have the kitchen cook cook cook it regularly.

"Give me the menu for all these dishes, especially this dish. It's rare to see the three brothers liking the same dish at the same time." Especially Xuan Ge'er, he could not eat too many cold dishes at once. "After I return home, I can ask the chef to cook a little less every three days. This is perfect for satisfying my craving, and it won't be too frequent."

As her mother, Xu Nuanwen was naturally very meticulous.

Especially regarding Ye Xuan who was the most unwell, Xu Nuanwen had spent quite a lot of effort to do so.

Dong Shu naturally would not disagree. Not only did she actively give out the menu, Dong Shu even made others write out a few lines on the menu to send over.

"I came up with these when I had nothing to do at Xiahe Village. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and every time I cook a plate, I eat it along with other meat dishes. I do need to be able to eat a little more."

Just as Dong Shu finished speaking, Xu Yanzhu, who was sitting at the other side, spoke up: "I also really like the small side dishes Third Aunt makes. Previously, when I was still at Xiahe Village, I had to go and get food everyday."

Speaking of the matter regarding Xiahe Village, Xu Yanzhu was also interested.

When she thought about how she had to freeload every day, only to end up with a bad expression on Third Uncle's face, Xu Yanzhu couldn't help but take a glance at Xu Shiqiu.

Xu Nuanwen was very smart, she only needed a glance to guess what had happened before.

Looking at her exhausted mother, Xu Nuanwen thought that since her son had been out for such a long time, she should head back to rest. As well as her husband and eldest son, they must still be busy, so Xu Nuanwen looked towards Old Madame Xu and said her goodbyes.

"Mom, I'll be going back first. I'll come see you after I get the news."

Xu Nuanwen wasn't reluctant to leave today at all. After all, the two houses were extremely close, and if she wanted to come, she could just come over.

Even if she had matters to attend to at home, she would be able to handle them when she returned with the carriage.

The old lady understood this logic too, so when she heard Xu Nuanwen's words, she did not feel reluctant to part with him.

However, even though Xu Nuanwen wanted to bring her entire family away, Ye Shuo refused to leave.

"Mother, please allow me to stay." I haven't seen Third Uncle for a long time, and I especially want to talk with him for a bit. "

The moment Ye Shuo opened his mouth, Ye Huan knew that he would definitely be able to stay.

After all, their mufei liked it the most when they called her 'mother'. As long as they called her 'mother' in a spoiled manner, she would definitely agree.

Xu Nuanwen did not think too much and agreed to stay behind. After all, Ye Shuo was not like his brother who wanted to go back and work with Ye Jingxing, and he did not want Ye Xuan to rest either.

Furthermore, she could sense that Ye Shuo was secretly helping his brother out.

Thus, when Ye Shuo asked this question, he did not think too much and immediately agreed.

Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu sat on the side without uttering a word when Ye Shuo had spoken. It was only when they saw Ye Jingxing and Xu Nuanwen off did and Ye Huan and Ye Xuan both look towards Ye Shuo.

Ye Shuo felt that Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu were looking at him, so he looked at them with a flattering look on his face: "Third Uncle, Third Aunt, why don't you two take a look, shall we talk here?"

The moment Ye Shuo opened his mouth, the Old Madame Xu turned to the servants beside him and said, "Help me to rest, just leave this place to the few of them." Saying that, Old Madame Xu looked towards Xu Yanzhu.

Receiving Old Madame Xu's hints, Xu Yanzhu hurriedly got up and said to Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu: "Third Uncle, Third Aunt, I will first go to rest for Grandmother, and then come back later." After saying that, Xu Yanzhu took the initiative to walk towards the Old Madame Xu.

"Alright, go and wait on your grandmother first." Xu Shiqiu immediately stood up, and after he saw Xu Yanzhu's silhouette finish speaking, he looked at the Old Madame Xu and saluted: "Mother, please rest first. If there's anything, wait for Mother to wake up before I inform you."

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, the Old Madame Xu did not speak anymore, but nodded directly and left.

When the Old Madame Xu and Xu Yanzhu left together, Ye Shuo immediately leaned towards Xu Shiqiu and said: "Third Uncle, I followed your instructions and bought a lot of the capital's silkpants."

Ye Shuo was originally a grandson who pretended to be a popinjay. Although he was a bastard, he was raised in front of the Fifth Prince's Concubine.

Thus, although his status was not the highest among all the royal grandchildren, it was not low either.

These few months, with the support of Xu Shiqiu's silver coins and his few words of advice, his position among the capital's little popinjays had grown higher and higher.

As his position rose, the amount of information he could obtain increased.

"Oh? I didn't expect that you would be so capable, big brother Shuo, in just a few months time you have already done so much. " Xu Shiqiu also knew how to praise people, especially when he was fully aware of Ye Shuo's personality. Naturally, he knew how to make continue to work for him.

As expected, it was as Xu Shiqiu had guessed. As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shuo looked at him with his bright eyes: "How could it be, it's even better to be the Third Uncle's instructor. Otherwise, I didn't know that I would still be able to get along with them like this."

Dong Shu just sat there and listened to Xu Shiqiu and Ye Shuo praise each other. After listening to another few sentences, she couldn't bear to listen any longer, so she opened her mouth and interrupted, "You guys have talked so much, but haven't gotten to the main point yet." After saying that, Dong Shu once again raised her head to look at Xu Shiqiu. Seeing that he was slightly stunned, he then continued: "If you guys have something to say, quickly say it, Yuanxi reckoned that you should wake up now. I need to go back and accompany her."

Just as Dong Shu finished speaking, Ye Shuo's eyes lit up as he looked at Dong Shu and said, "Third Aunt, I have never seen Little Cousin Sister before. Why don't you get someone to bring Little Cousin Sister over for me to look at in detail?" While speaking, Ye Shuo carefully took out a handkerchief from his chest pocket and opened it, revealing a pair of silver bracelets inside.

"Third Aunt, I personally made this pair of silver bracelets with an old master. Although the patterns are simple, I carefully prepared them."

As Ye Shuo spoke earnestly, Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu looked at each other, and then, Dong Shu extended her hand and received the pair of silver bracelets.

The silver bracelet's design was exquisite. It was a buckle, and one could tell that it was meant for a child.

There were simple auspicious cloud patterns engraved on it. If one looked carefully, they would be able to see that the patterns were not that detailed.

However, to and Xu Shiqiu, who were both father and mother, they truly liked the gift that Ye Shuo had prepared.

After all, Xu Nuanwen had just given him a gift from a family just now. Although they had prepared a present for Yuanxi, it was very obvious that those gifts were not like Ye Shuo's silver bracelet, but were made personally.

Because of this pair of silver bracelets, Xu Shiqiu's gaze towards Ye Shuo became more and more friendly.

Seeing Third Uncle reveal such an expression, Ye Shuo knew that the gift he prepared wasn't wrong. It definitely fit the hearts of Third Uncle and his third aunt.

"That Third Uncle, there is something I want to ask you." Seeing the smile on Xu Shiqiu's face, Ye Shuo finally revealed his first goal for today.

Hearing his words, Xu Shiqiu immediately became focused: "Go ahead." After saying that, Xu Shiqiu indicated for Dong Shu to keep the silver bracelet.

After Dong Shu put away the silver bracelet, Ye Shuo started to ask the question that he wanted to ask.

"Originally, I wanted to lead them and play with them for the past few months, but no one noticed that the Fifth Prince Palace still had me. But ever since father was taken seriously by royal grandfather, these people have come looking for me. " Speaking of this matter, Ye Shuo felt extremely helpless.

He really didn't want to get involved in all of this, but these people had come looking for him.

"I thought that I wasn't interested in scheming and scheming either, so I told this to my father and brother."

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu were shocked. They never thought that Ye Shuo would actually take the initiative to tell Ye Jingxing and Ye Huan.

Seeing the change in Xu Shiqiu's and his expression, Ye Shuo continued to speak with slight embarrassment. "Originally, I thought that after I told this to my father and brother, they would come up with ideas for me. Ye Shuo was very unhappy about this.

Ever since Ye Shuo found out about his identity, he knew that he couldn't advance.

That was why he was willing to help Xu Shiqiu gather information in the capital when he went to the Xiahe Village.

Originally, Ye Shuo thought that as long as he followed Third Uncle and became a branch family member, he would be at ease as a small landlord. With his identity as the royal grandson, he would definitely be able to live a good life.

But he never would have thought that he would meet these people again. And when he told his father and brother about these things, they didn't even extend a hand.

"Third Uncle, tell me, if I had such a brain, I would have definitely thought of a plan at that time. But I don't have that kind of brain, do I? " After he sighed, Ye Shuo continued, "I had originally thought that Father and Big Brother would definitely help me come up with ideas, but who would have thought that they would actually let me think of a solution on my own. How could I have any ideas? Right now, I am extremely careful every day just in case they plot against me. "

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Shiqiu understood what he meant.

"Are you worried that someone would take advantage of you and harm your big brother?"

"That's right!" Ye Shuo immediately understood what he was trying to say and became excited. "I understand, now that Big Brother believes in me, even if there's anything, he won't believe it, but what about in the future?"

"I really don't think I can guarantee what will happen in the future, but I don't have that kind of brain, so these past few days, I've been worrying myself to death." After saying this, Ye Shuo scratched his head fretfully.

Seeing Ye Shuo's agitated look, Dong Shu forced herself to laugh: "Don't be anxious, maybe your father and big brother did it on purpose."

"Third aunt, they must have done it on purpose!"

Ye Shuo looked at Dong Shu with a wronged expression. After he finished speaking to her, Ye Shuo immediately looked at Xu Shiqiu and said: "Third Uncle, you are clever. Please think about it for me.

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Shiqiu shot a glance at him, and said: "Your father and brother wants you to have your own subordinates." After saying that, Xu Shiqiu looked at Ye Huan's shocked expression, sighed, and continued, "You're right. What happens in the future is uncertain. You should be careful now."

"Third Uncle, are you sure my father and brother want me to have subordinates?" At this moment, Ye Huan's face was filled with disbelief. He still remembered that last year, his father only allowed his big brother to have his own advisors.

So now, his father and brother actually let him hire his own staff?

Seeing Ye Huan's expression, Xu Shiqiu knew that he had understood what was going on.

"If you're worried, you can recruit an advisor yourself and have your father give you one. That way, your father will be able to find out in time if anything happens in the future. In the future, you will also have a family. It is already too late to start training your trusted aides. I know that you don't want to fight over anything with your big brother, but you will have to support your family in the future, so you can't do everything by yourself. "

As for Ye Huan, Xu Shiqiu felt that with his brother-in-law's personality, there must be someone at his side as well.

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Ye Shuo's eyes lit up and nodded: "Third Uncle, you are right. I have the money right now to cultivate my own trusted aides, but I still haven't gotten married.

As he spoke, the more Ye Shuo thought about it, the more he felt that he asked the right person.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of such a good idea.

Ye Shuo's thoughts were clearly displayed on his face.

Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu looked at each other for a while before Xu Shiqiu spoke: "Don't worry, the reason why your father asked you to settle this yourself is because he wants to temper you. After all, you're not young anymore. In two years, when your big brother gets married, you'll definitely get married as well. "After you get married, you have to support your family. You can't just ask your dad and your brother how to solve anything that happens to you."

"Third Uncle, I understand what you are saying." After receiving Xu Shiqiu's advice, Ye Shuo had already figured out how to handle this matter.

After all, both his father and elder brother still believed in him, so he had tested him a few times. If he really didn't do it well, there would still be people helping him clean up the mess.

After he figured out what was going on, Ye Shuo finally looked as Xu Shiqiu and prepared to tell him the second thing that he was going to come today.
