It's the day of rest at the end of the month.

The silver-red sunset shines on the snow, and the refracted light is not at all warm.

As the carriage passed through the snow, the air from the people and horses condensed into a ball of white mist and drifted in the setting sun.

"Second Young Master, Third Master, Third Miss, Fifth Miss, You Are Back."

The concierge of the Lin'an Marquis Mansion looked at the few people who got out of the carriage and ran over with his hands in his arms.

Several people greeted each other with a smile and stepped into the gate of Lin'an Mansion.

Ye Ming and the other two walked towards Bai Laiyuan, while Ye Li walked towards his own pear courtyard.

"Dad, mom, son (daughter) is back."

After the words came, a maid raised a heavy gold-woven curtain, and Fang Wanru and gentle voice came from it.

“Come in quickly.”

The three of them started to crawl into the curtain with a delicate orchid fragrance coming, and they were immediately surrounded by warmth.

"Is it frozen?" Fang Wanrou asked softly, "Although the snow has stopped these days, it is even colder than the previous few days."

"It's okay, my son is strong." Ye Hai put the untied cloak aside and patted his firm chest as Ye Ming and Ye Miao put the untied cloak aside.

"Boy, I know you are as strong as a cow!" Ye Yunlang glanced at him and signaled him to get out of the way.

After seeing Ye Miao, he smiled and said, "Your mother asked meow meow. Meow meow, are you cold?"

"Daughter is not cold, how are you good at daddy or mom?" Ye Miao asked in a low voice.

"Hehe, your mother and I are all well." Ye Yunlang said.

Ye Hai had long been used to Ye Yunlang's eyes that only had a daughter but no son. He walked to the table and poured a cup of warm tea into it, making a gurgling sound.

Putting down the teacup, he wiped his mouth and shouted, "Dad, my mother, this time my sister is the first in the private exam!"

"Which one is your first?"

"Brother is second, son is eighteen."

"Not bad, there has been progress." Ye Yunlang nodded.

He and Fang Wanrou never asked Ye Hai to be like Ye Ming. As long as Ye Hai makes progress in comparison with him, they will praise him without hesitation.

"Thank you, dad." Ye Hai grinned and touched his stomach, "Mom, my son is hungry."

Fang Wanrou smiled knowingly, shouted outside, signaling Mama Zhao to prepare for dinner.

"Let's go," Ye Yunlang walked towards Fang Wanrou and helped her up, "You mothers have been preparing for the whole day and eat more later."

"Yes, dad."

After the family happily finished dinner and talked again, they walked towards their own yard.

When Ye Miao arrived at Miaofengyuan soon, she suddenly saw something behind the rockery at the corner in front of her. She was secretly alert and shouted softly, "Who is there?"

No one answered her.

"Come out soon." She shouted again, "If I don't come out, I'll go there."

When she was about to raise her foot, a small figure came out from there.

"Sister Three, yes...yes Arn." Ye En shrank his little body and lowered his head, "I'm sorry, I scared the third sister."

He was scared and Ye Miao walked over and squatted in front of Ye En, "It's such a cold day, Ahn is not in the house, why did he come here?"

With the light reflected from the snow, Ye Miao saw Ye En's hair slightly messy, his clothes were wrinkled, and a little dirty. It seemed that he didn't look like he had just run out.

"Ah...Ah..." Ye En blushed and stammered and couldn't speak.

"Don't be afraid, tell my third sister." Ye Miao held Ye En's cold little hand and said softly.

The hand was frozen like ice.

"Ah, Ahn is looking for a mother." Ye En bit his lip, and his black eyes looked at Ye Miao with a hopeful light.

"Sister, where is my mother? Does she want Arn? Why can't Arn be found?"

Ye Miao's heart was so sour.

Aunt Lu died for more than anything else, but it was a pity for the young Ye En.

I didn't know anything, and suddenly I lost my mother overnight.

"Ah, no matter where your mother goes, she will watch you care about you from afar."

Ye En's eyes were filled with tears, "But the eldest sister said, "My mother doesn't want Arn, she left alone and never came back."

"Is Arn unbearable? So my mother doesn't want Arn?" He sobbed, and the little hand that Ye Miao held was shaking unconsciously, shaking his fists.

For children, nothing can hurt more than being abandoned because they are not good enough.

"No, Arn is the most well-behaved child in the world. Your mother has something to do. When she left, she asked me to take good care of you, saying that if she came back and found that I didn't take good care of you, she would beat me up."

"Really?"

"Really." Ye Miao nodded, "Ahn is hungry, is it okay to go to my place to eat delicious food?"

After the words came, Ye En's stomach purred, and he immediately covered his stomach shyly. He wanted to ask when his grandmother would come back, but he immediately forgot about what he wanted to do.

He swallowed and nodded shyly.

Ye Miao smiled and led Ye En to Miaofengyuan.

It just so happened that Peach Blossom had just tried to make some plum blossom cakes. When he saw Ye En coming, he quickly brought it up.

"Ahn, Sister Taohua invites you to eat." She touched Ye En's little head and said.

"Thank you, Sister Taohua." Ye En said thank you politely, sat down and started to eat.

Maybe I was so hungry that I quickly ate most of the plate of plum blossom cake.

Ye Miao poured a cup of tea and put it to his hand. Ye En drank it and said thank you in a vague way.

While eating, the curtain was suddenly lifted open. Ye Rong walked in strongly. When she saw Ye En who was safe and sound, she was obviously relieved, but her face remained alert.

"Ah, come here."

Ye En glanced at Ye Miao, and reluctantly jumped off the chair and walked towards Ye Rong, with his little head hanging down.

"Ah, please trouble my third sister." Ye Rong said coldly: "If you see him running out alone in the future, I hope my third sister will send someone to notify the people in our yard."

The implication is that he doesn't want Ye Miao to contact Ye En.

Ye Miao didn't say anything.

"I've taken Arn back."

After saying that, without waiting for Ye Miao to say anything, he took Ye En's hand and walked out.

The moment the curtain was put down, Ye Rong's words floated in, with a little sternness, "Ah, have I told you that you can't eat anything given to others?"

Then Ye En's small voice sounded, with a little loneliness, "I understand, big sister."

Ye Miao shook his head, feeling more and more distressing to Ye En.

Just as Peach Blossoms were about to take away the remaining plum blossom cake, the sound of peach blossoms suddenly sounded outside.

"Hu...father-in-law?"

Then there was a ploping sound of kneeling down, "Taohua has met the Emperor."

The emperor is here again? Ye Miao rubs his temples and walks out.

Not only the emperor and Eunuch Hu, but also Cheng Shuo.

"I've seen the Emperor."

"No need to be polite," the emperor responded without any warmth and raised his foot and walked inside.

Ye Miao followed behind and asked Cheng Shuo with his eyes, "Why did you come so late?"

It's still in this cold day.

Cheng Shuo shrugged.

He didn't expect the emperor to suddenly say he wanted to come over.

When the two of them paused, Ye Miao was a little stunned when they walked in.

It turned out that the emperor had already sat at the table, picked up the leftover plum blossom cake that Ye En had and took a bite.

Ye Miao swallowed and swallowed the words to his mouth.

The emperor ate very slowly and took a bite and chewed it for a long time. I don’t know if it was because it was not suitable for the appetite or was slowly tasting it, but his face looked very complicated.

Ye Miao and Cheng Shuo stood quietly aside without saying a word.

After a while, the emperor put the remaining half of the plum blossom cake in his mouth, chewed it for a while before swallowing it.

Ye Miao couldn't help but take a secret look and found that there was a look of almost nostalgia on his face.

"I haven't eaten plum blossom cake for many years." The emperor said: "It's all the blessings of A Shuo, and I've eaten a lot recently."
