566 Father and Son Meet Again, Confessing the Truth (2)


    About an hourter, the carriage arrived at the Helian Manor. The old man alighted from the carriage with the help of the coachman. The old man thanked the Prince Consort. “I’m home. Thank you, Young Master.”


    The Prince Consort lifted the curtain and looked at the towering door of the Helian Manor. For some reason, an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. He hesitated for a moment and asked, “You… live here?”


    The old man replied, “This is my friend’s house. I’m staying here temporarily. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go in first.” With that, he turned around and was about to knock on the door of the Helian Manor.


    The Prince Consort suddenly said, “Can Ie in and sit?”


    !!


    Uh… It’s sote. That’s not good…


    He had seen people who wanted to help others, but he had never seen someone who insisted on visiting their house after helping others. This person did not look like a bad person no matter how one looked at him. Besides, if he was really a bad person, then entering the manor was no different from going to hell.


    The old man nodded. “Alright, follow me into the manor.”


    The coachman scratched his head anxiously. What was going on? It was enough for him toe, but why was the Prince Consort moring to go in? If the Queen found outter, she would have to give you another bowl of medicine!


    The Prince Consort alighted from the carriage.


    The old man knocked on the door. “It’s me.”


    The pageboy opened the door respectfully. “I didn’t see you go out today. Did you use the back door?”


    The old man said solemnly, “I flew out.”


    The pageboyughed and said, “You really know how to joke!”


    In this day and age, no one believed the truth. The old man pointed at the Prince Consort beside him and said, “Something happened to me on the way. This young master sent me back. I invited him into the manor.”


    “Invite…” It was sote, the pageboy was puzzled, but he did not dare to block him outside. The general had instructed that the people who stayed with Young Master were all esteemed guests of the East Manor and asked them to treat them like masters.


    The pageboy opened the vermilion door and invited the old man and the Prince Consort in. He took antern and shone the way for them.


    The scenery of the Helian Manor was not as good as the Queen Manor, especially in the dark at night. It was really not pleasing to the eye, but for some reason, there seemed to be an aura here that made the Prince Consort like it.


    His heart began to beat faster and his emotions became full. When they passed through the Qu You Corridor, a drunk old woman bumped into him. He was not angry.


    “Aiya, I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” The pageboy apologized for the drunk woman.


    The Prince Consort smiled. “It’s fine.”


    The pageboy was stunned. Uh, this guest had a good temper. The pageboy sent the two of them to Xixia Garden and returned to the outer court.


    At this time, Xixia Garden was actually a little noisy.


    The situation must have lost control when they realized that he was no longer around. The old man shook his head. This group of little fools could sometimes anger people to death, but sometimes, it was also warm to the heart.


    “Are you staying here?” The Prince Consort asked as he looked at the ajar courtyard door. His heart was beating harder and harder, as if something behind the door was holding him back. Without waiting for Grandma to answer, he looked up and pushed open the courtyard door.


    The old man who was a step slower: “…”


    The door opened. The smell of roasted meat wafted over. The old man frowned instinctively. In the next second, he was dumbfounded.


    What did he see?


    In the colorful courtyard, there was a bright bonfire. A group of people was actually sitting together to roast meat and eat!


    The old man was dumbfounded. He could not believe what he was seeing!


    One, two, three, four… eight!


    They were all there!


    He had been kidnapped, but these heartless little fellows did not save him. Instead, they sat in the courtyard and ate and drank?!


    “Aiya.” Yu Wan, who was skewering meat with Zi Su and Fu Ling, suddenly stopped in her tracks. “Did we forget something?”


    Everyone was collectively silent. After a while, Qing Yan pped his thigh. “I didn’t get the vinegar! Little Jiuchao loves his vinegar!”


    Yan Jiuchao nced at him coldly.


    “I’ll go get it!” Qing Yan smiled and left.


    The corners of the old man’s mouth twitched.


    “No, not this,” Yu Wan said thoughtfully.


    “Ah, I remember!” Jiang Hai pped his thigh, stood up, and went to the old man’s room.


    The old man: Hmph, at least you have some conscience.


    Jiang Hai came out with a sealed wine jar and whispered, “A high-grade Huadiao!”


    The old man fell back in anger!


    “That doesn’t seem to be the case.” Yu Wan frowned and thought for a while. “Is one person missing?”


    The light in the old man’s dim eyes gathered. Qing Yan and Jiang Hai exchanged nces and said in unison, “Old Cui!”
