Talking intermittently in the middle of the night, Chu Yunyao couldn't remember when she fell asleep again. When she woke up, the place around her was already cold, and Siyu in the cradle was gone.
She got up quickly, and after washing up, went to find the child.
The servant pointed to the nanny and concubine who were holding the child downstairs, "Young Madam, the young lady was carried out by the young master early in the morning, and she is playing with Miss An An downstairs."
Chu Yunyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Where is the young master? Where did you go?"
"The young master fed the master breakfast and went to the study, probably in the study." The servant said, "What would the young lady want to eat, I'll bring some from the kitchen, the second aunt made several breakfasts, all Everyone loves to eat."
Chu Yunyao shook her head: "No, I'm not hungry."
She raised her foot to live downstairs, and several aunts and wives saw her going downstairs, and said with a smile: "The young master said that the child is too noisy at night, you didn't sleep well all night, let us not disturb your rest, why don't you sleep more a while?"
Chu Yunyao pointed outside, and joked, "It's already high in the sun, if you sleep any longer, it will be dark soon."
She squatted down, looked at An An, who looked exactly like the third aunt, took the jade bracelet from her hand, and handed it to her: "Good girl, An An, I came here in a hurry this time, and I was really late last night , I didn't have time to bring a gift to An An, this jade bracelet, just give it to An An as a toy."
An An was less than three years old, and under the guidance of several aunts, she was considered well-behaved and sensible. She looked back at the third aunt, her little hands behind her back, and she dared not accept her.
The third aunt said: "This can't be done. How can a child's family accept such an expensive gift from the young lady? Besides, you and the young master have already given her a lot of things. This jade bracelet is definitely not acceptable." , so as not to overwhelm her."
Seeing that the third aunt was really unwilling to accept it, Chu Yunyao had no choice but to take the bracelet back and put it on her wrist again.
I took out a small jade ring in my purse, and handed it to An An: "This is the jade ring that Ling Wei went to Tian'en Temple last time, and the master in the temple consecrated it. Give it to An An."
Seeing that this thing was originally intended to be reserved for Siyu, the third aunt was too embarrassed to continue to refuse, so she had to accept it for An An, strung it with silk thread, and put the jade ring on An An's neck.
An An Nuo Nuo asked: "Sister-in-law, why can't Siyu speak?"
Chu Yunyao touched An An's pink and tender face: "Siyu is too small. When Siyu grows up, she will be able to talk. When the time comes, you can play with Siyu, okay?"
"Okay, I like Siyu very much." An An's chubby fingers fiddled with the jade bracelet on Chu Yunyao's wrist: "Sister-in-law's jade bracelet is even more beautiful than the gold and gemstone bracelet in Madam's hand."
Fourth Aunt couldn't help laughing out loud: "This girl has always had a sweet mouth, and she's starting to please people again."
Several people chatted and laughed for a while, An An pulled Chu Yunyao's sleeve unconvinced, and argued: "I'm telling the truth, the bracelet in Madam's hand was broken, but this jade bracelet has not been broken. "
Chu Yunyao thought that An An was just saying something unintentionally, and didn't take it to heart.
The second aunt cut the peeled apple into pieces and shared them with An An and Chu Yunyao. Chu Yunyao's eyes fell on the short knife and she stood up, "I'm going to the study."
Just as he was about to knock on the door, Duan Changyu and Mu Qing's conversation came from inside.
"I've looked for it all, but I haven't found it."
"I searched inside and out, but couldn't find it."
Mo Lingyuan seemed to ponder for a while, and said: "Understood, let's keep this matter a secret for now, don't tell it, it's best not to let the young lady know."
