Chapter 55

55.Gifts

The people admired Zhao Fengmian even more. No one in a high position could consider the people like him.

Zhao Fengmian felt ashamed. Although the rules of Tianshi Palace were set by the late emperor, he never thought that it would add such a huge burden to the people.

He sat back down again, his mirror-like eyes showing a trace of self-blame. His father taught him to put the people first every day, but he only knew the superficial and failed to truly consider the people.

If the girl wearing the mask had not told the truth today, he would not have known how big of a mistake he had made.

On the other side, Yun Yao ran back home in a hurry.

In fact, the market is quite far from home, because most civilians live outside the third ring road, so the places where they usually buy food are naturally there.

This Tianshi Palace, in the name of caring for the people, made it impossible for her to buy food. It was simply too abominable.

Yun Yao was complaining in her heart when she suddenly saw a carriage approaching and stopped in front of her house.

Two cabbage leaves fell from the carriage.

"Girl," Fei Huan, who was wearing casual clothes, got off his horse and said, "Is this Miss Yunyao's home?"

Yun Yao was stunned and said, "I am."

Fei Huan glanced at Yun Yao. She had grown taller and her figure had improved a lot. She really couldn't see through the mask.

He touched the back of his head and said, "My father-in-law knew that you were in Beijing and said it was hard to buy groceries recently, so she asked me to bring you some food."

He behaved quite naturally and did not hide anything. Anyway, when he was in Ganyu Village, he was dressed in black and covered his face, so he was not afraid of Yunyao recognizing him.

He took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is the letter the lady asked me to deliver."

Yun Yao took the letter and saw that the sender was Zheng Lan. He suddenly smiled and said, "Thank you Lan Lan for me. I have accepted it."

Fei Huan helped Yun Yao move the food into the yard. They were all fresh vegetables and meat. They were not expensive things, but they saved Yun Yao a lot of trouble. It was really heart-warming.

A pair of green eyes grew out of a shady corner. Fei Huan was startled when he saw Hei Dan walking to his feet, circling around him, and rubbing his legs with his tail from time to time.

Fei Huan:?

Yunyao pointed to the fish in the bag and said, "It wants to eat this."

"Oh~" Fei Huan understood immediately and caught a fish for it. The fish was not completely dead and flopped on the ground twice.

Black Dan happily walked away with the fish in his mouth, his tail raised high, and he flicked the tip of his tail twice from time to time.

Fei Huan finished moving the things and picked up the fallen vegetable leaves before driving away.

Yun Yao was not in a hurry to pack his things. He opened the letter and read it first, then sighed with some disappointment.

Zheng Lan also wanted to meet Yunyao, but her family was strictly controlled and she was not allowed to go out at will, nor was she allowed to go out to meet guests.

Yun Yao thought about it. There are many rules for girls who have not left the court. Even if they are married, they are still bound by many restrictions.

She herself is a complete exception.

She replied quickly and then began to worry again.

She received so many things, but she didn’t know what to give as a gift in return. What did little girls in ancient times like?

It would be better to wait until the people in Tianshi Palace stop being evil and pick out a jade ring as a return gift. It would feel good.

Yu An and Xiao Aqing were after school. As soon as they entered the house, they smelled the strong aroma of food.

Little Aqing staggered into the main room and said excitedly: "Wow! It's so rich!"

"Right." Yun Yao said, "I want to thank Sister Zheng Lan for sending me a lot of food."

Little Aqing jumped onto the chair and sat down, saying, "Thank you, sister Zheng Lan."

Yun Yao touched his little head, filled up three bowls of rice, and gave Yu An and little A Qing a piece of braised pork.

Little Aqing's mouth was full of oil after eating, and he covered his little pocket from time to time, not knowing what he was hiding.

Yun Yao glanced doubtfully, he didn't want to say anything, and she didn't look at it either.

She took a handkerchief, wet it with water, put it next to little Aqing, and said, "Wipe your mouth after eating."

"Okay!" Xiao Aqing responded with a sweet voice, and reached out to pick up the chicken. However, his arms were too short and he couldn't reach it.

Yun Yao pushed the dish towards him, and suddenly heard a clatter and something fell to the ground.

Little Aqing was stunned and quickly jumped down to pick it up. It was a ball of paper that had been folded many times and had become lumpy.

He held the paper carefully, looked at his sister, and then at his brother-in-law. He felt that it was not good to hide it, so he walked slowly to Yun Yao.

He handed the paper ball to Yun Yao and said, "Sister, please don't be angry after reading this, okay?"

Yun Yao thought he failed the exam, so he touched his little head and said, "I won't be angry."

The paper was folded sixty times. After Yun Yao opened it, the paper had become wrinkled.

It was indeed a test paper, but contrary to what Yun Yao thought, it was a perfect test paper.

The only thing wrong is that there is a little man drawn in the blank space of the test paper. The little man has long hair, wears a mask, and stands there menacingly, carrying a hammer several times bigger.

The painting should be of her. She has no painting skills and is quite ugly, but she is also quite interesting.

Yun Yao burst out laughing, feeling bad about it, and quickly stopped it.

Little Aqing's original nervousness suddenly relaxed. He had not planned to take the test paper back, but the master had to sign it from his parents, so there was nothing he could do.

Yun Yao sighed, squatted in front of little A-Qing and said, "I'm not angry at all. Little A-Qing's painting is quite good, but I want to tell you something."

"What's going on?" Xiao Aqing asked blankly.

Yun Yao said: "Maybe you have realized that, so you are afraid that I will be angry. This kind of painting may be disrespectful to others, right?"

Little Aqing wilted and stood on the ground obediently and said, "I know, I won't do it again."

Yun Yao was so cute that she really wanted to squeeze his little face. Just as she was about to do it, she suddenly stood up warily.

Yu An was startled and asked: "What happened?"

Yunyao looked at the roof and said, "There are people up there."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that the breath disappeared again. He probably heard her voice and left.

Yun Yao walked to the yard worriedly and looked up. There was nothing on the roof.

Not saying hello to her shouldn't be a godsend.

Could it be that someone from Tianshi Palace came to assassinate her?

Yun Yao simply walked around the yard and saw two large sacks behind the main house.

Yu An and Xiao Aqing walked to Yun Yao worriedly and saw these two big guys.

Isn't it a dangerous item?

Yun Yao thought like this and didn't dare to come forward.

Unexpectedly, when little Aqing saw the red rope tied up the sack, he stepped forward to hug it and said, "My things are flying back!"

?

Yun Yao was stunned when he saw little Aqing eagerly opening the sack and revealing a bunch of things inside.

The top is a tattered pillow, with many knick-knacks inside, including nine-ring rings, small bells, and small purses, all old and dirty.

Little Aqing pulled the sack hard, trying to drag it back into the house, but unfortunately the sack didn't move at all.

Yun Yao stepped forward to help. She tied the rope back, picked up the sack and carried it to Yun Qing's room.

After a while, she came back to carry another sack. This sack seemed to contain a large wooden box with sharp edges and one corner had already protruded.

In order to prevent the box from falling, Yun Yao simply moved it out without the sack.

Little Aqing looked at the box blankly and said, "I have never seen this thing before."
