Just as Cheng Yi Fei was about to leave his tent, he saw Jun Jiuchen and Gu Feiyan standing in front of a map, whispering to each other.
It was as if Jun Jiuchen had said something interesting that made Gu Feiyan giggle. Jun Jiuchen stroked her hair, revealing a doting smile.
In Cheng Yifei's memories, he had never seen His Highness tease any woman, nor had he ever seen him treat any woman with such gentleness. Recalling the shocking wedding that had taken place in Jinyang City and the scene that had unfolded before him, Cheng Yifei fell into deep thought. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he shrugged and actually smiled.
He smiled as he strode over, cupping his hands in salute. "This general pays his respects to Your Highness Duke of Jing and esteemed wangfei!"
Gu Feiyan looked up and faintly felt that Cheng Yifei was much more cheerful than before. She had heard about Tang Jing and the Tang family coming to the army. But she really didn't know what the truth was. She secretly thought that with Cheng Yifei's good mood, he definitely had nothing to do with Tang Jing.
Although she was very curious, she acted like she didn't know anything in front of Cheng Yifei. She was waiting for the Tang family to come back before she started to gossip in secret. The Tang couple had been in the city for several days and had not met with them. It was about time that they returned.
Gu Feiyan was about to say something when Jun Jiuchen said the word "rise". However, just as Cheng Yifei straightened up, the Tang Clan Head's angry voice sounded from behind him.
"Cheng Yifei, stop right there! Explain, what does your mother mean by giving me such a big gift? "
Cheng Yifei immediately turned around to look at the door, while Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen also looked outside, but did not see the Tang Family Head. The sound of their voices really did come before the person arrived.
After the three of them waited for a moment, they saw the Tang Family Head rush in with big strides.
"Cheng Yifei, your mother is a weasel wishing the chicken a happy new year. Are you feeling uneasy or something?"
The Tang Clan Head smashed the pile of items in his hand onto the ground and flew away. He didn't notice Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen who were standing not far away from him.
Cheng Yifei looked at the tonics on the ground with a baffled expression. Didn't his mother go back early? What was going on?
"This was sent by your mother." What do you think she's trying to do? What do you mean? Could it be that he realized his mistake and came to apologize to the clan head? Hehe, you don't even have the guts to apologize just because you sent me a gift! This Patriarch does not think much of these lousy things! "
Cheng Yifei looked at the object on the ground again and immediately understood what his mother meant. His mother wasn't giving this to Sect Leader Tang, but to Tang Jing! His mother probably mistook the Tang family for knowing that Tang Jing was pregnant.
Cheng Yifei was secretly glad that his mother did not tell him. Otherwise, he would not need to fight this battle anymore. He was very decisive, and he explained, "Don't be angry, Uncle. My mother was too angry a few days ago to speak without thinking. She must have thought it through in the past two days. The truth was that she was not a person who bothered others. Her mind was clear on what was right and wrong, and that was her face. This was exactly how she was. She wouldn't apologize even if she knew her wrongs. She would only gift gifts to others and never stop. If uncle does not forgive us, we can just throw these things away.
The Tang Clan Head still had not completely forgiven Cheng Qifei, much less Madam Lin. He snorted lightly, "Let her send you off, she'll throw you out once!"
Cheng Yifei scratched his head but did not say anything.
Patriarch Tang turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly saw Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen standing at the side. He looked at them seriously and was immediately stunned, "You … You, you are … "
Gu Feiyan and Jun Jiuchen had already looked at him for a long time.
Gu Feiyan smiled, feeling both happy and helpless. She realized that her uncle hadn't changed at all. He was already so old, yet he didn't seem to have grown up. He was royal father's most beloved younger brother, and also royal father's most close relative. Naturally, he was also her most close elder.
She was also not sure if the Tang Family Head had recognized her. She walked forward without saying anything and only smiled, giggling foolishly.
The Tang Family Head's previous anger had long disappeared. He looked at Gu Feiyan with eyes full of heartache. He was a middle-aged man. His eyes suddenly turned red as tears welled up in them. He pursed his lips, really wanting to cry. It had to be known that he doted on his brother, this precious daughter, as if she was his own daughter! The child's loss was like losing his red bean. It was unbearable.
Gu Feiyan was originally able to endure it, but seeing the Tang clan head's appearance, her eyes finally couldn't help but get wet. But she was still laughing. Very quickly, just like how she did when she was young, she made a face at the Tang Family Head and said with disdain, "You talk big."
Chief Tang stared blankly for a moment before letting out a hearty laugh as well. With a disdainful expression, he said, "Little chatty!"
Gu Feiyan immediately retorted, "If my father says I'm not, then Big Sister Hong Dou is! Your whole family is talkative! "
Right after she finished speaking, a light cough came from outside the door. It was Madam Ning's voice.
Madam Ning walked in. She didn't say anything as she raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Feiyan, walking closer step by step. Gu Feiyan immediately hid behind Jun Jiuchen, afraid to come out.
This scene was something that happened frequently more than ten years ago. In the past, Jun Jiuchen had always acted like a small adult, calmly and mature, bowing and greeting Lady Ning to atone for Gu Feiyan's wrongdoings. He always had to say the last sentence, "Don't blame me for my childish words." Time passed quickly, and now he was a man.
When he saw that Madam Ning had forced him to come forward, he clasped his hands and bowed. However, this time, he did not say 'a child's speech'. He said, "My wife speaks too quickly and definitely did not have any ulterior motives. Please forgive me Madam."
Madam Ning sized up Jun Jiuchen and couldn't help but laugh. She couldn't help but sigh emotionally, "You're all big now!"
Only then did Gu Feiyan walk out from behind Jun Jiuchen's back. She called out, "Auntie."
Madam Ning cast a sidelong glance at him. "Why are you out there?" Go back and hide. Are you going to follow your mother or your royal father? With such good judgement, I've already found a brat who can hide from you for the rest of your life. "
Gu Feiyan was embarrassed. She held Jun Jiuchen's hand and smiled. "It's because of your good judgement that you couldn't be wrong!"
Lady Ning treated Lonely Flying Yan as if she were her own daughter. She then cast a sidelong glance at her and said, "You don't know shame!"
Gu Feiyan didn't feel embarrassed, but Jun Jiuchen felt embarrassed. He turned his head away, and couldn't help but smile. Cheng Yifei, who was watching on the side, felt his three views overturn as his jaw dropped.
Originally, he was filled with joy for Lonely Flying Yan. He was glad that she wasn't a one-sided love like the other girls and instead was favored and doted upon by Prince Jing. However, from the looks of the situation, it was obvious that he didn't have to worry about that. The two of them were clearly childhood friends, and the Marquis' feelings for Gu Feiyan seemed to have increased a little.
Although Madam Ning despised him greatly, she still pulled Gu Feiyan over and looked her up and down. Finally, she looked at Jun Jiuchen and said, "You must take good care of your skinny body. Otherwise, you won't be able to make a mistake!"
Before Jun Jiuchen could reply, the Tang Family Head interrupted, "Raising a fat and white boy won't be an issue either!"
