He thought happily in his heart that his aunt and uncle would be his parents-in-law in the future, so he had to be good.

Only then will they feel comfortable letting their sister marry him.

The three of them entered Nanyuan like a family of three.

The old minister was arguing with someone at the door of the main hall, his voice was deafening.

Yan Funing looked carefully and found that the person arguing with her grandfather was actually her grandmother.

"I'm here to visit my daughter and son-in-law. How does that bother you?" Old Madam Hong said in a loud voice.

"My son and daughter-in-law's home is my home, isn't it? If you want to come, then come. But is it not appropriate to quarrel as soon as you see me?"

"As long as that old woman is around you, I can't stand it."

"I have already handed over the power of household affairs to Qingyi. Is there anything else I should do that I need you to teach me?"

"You are an old duke. I can't teach you."

"Then shut up."

"You can't close your mouth. I don't understand. When she asked you to take care of her sister, you did it? What if she was testing you?"

"I really don't want to argue with you. She was crying and begging me. What could I say at that time?"

These two people were highly respected and virtuous. They quarreled fiercely and no one from the Yan family or the Hong family dared to step forward to mediate.

When Yan Cheng saw his youngest daughter and son-in-law coming, he quickly spoke up, hoping to change the subject: "Fu Ning and Ci Yi are here."

Hearing this, the old Duke and Old Madam Hong both looked towards the young couple.

The old Duke smiled and said, "The girl is here."

Old Madam Hong smiled and said, "Little girl, come to your grandmother."

The old Duke glared at Madam Hong: "That's my girl!"

Madam Hong refused to give in: "My, my little girl!"

Yan Cheng was dumbfounded. He had wanted the two elders to calm down, but now it seemed like they were about to have a quarrel, so he waved to Yan Funing hurriedly.

Yan Funing had no choice but to let go of Yuan Lang's hand and walked over quickly: "Grandfather, grandmother, it's the New Year, let's talk about something happy."

At this time, Yuanlang opened his voice and said, "Just now I bumped into my aunt's belly. My uncle picked me up and said I couldn't bump into my aunt. I guess my aunt is pregnant with a little sister."

As soon as these words were spoken, the two respected elders who had been arguing came to Yan Funing's side, one on the left and one on the right.

The old Duke was delighted: "Girl, are you really pregnant?"

Old Madam Hong was delighted: "Little girl, when did it happen?"

"No, that's not happening!" Yan Funing turned and glared at Yuan Lang, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Fu Ciyi also spoke up: "That's indeed not the case."

After hearing this, Yuan Lang broke free from Fu Ciyi's hand, pouted, and became unhappy.

The little guy was unhappy, but everyone was happy because the two respected elders finally stopped arguing.

The old Duke: "Don't worry, you are still young, and you will have children sooner or later."

Old Madam Hong nodded in agreement, "Yes, it is not appropriate to have children too early in the current situation."

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the two people in front of him became a prince and a prince's consort.

The intrigues within the royal family are much more serious than those among the wealthy and powerful.

Having said this, everyone headed towards the dining room.

"Today, grandfather, father, three brothers and brother-in-law all went to court. It was not easy for my mother-in-law to become the queen. It is said that there were many voices of opposition at that time. My husband and I came here now, mainly to express our gratitude." Yan Funing said as she walked.

The old Duke glanced at his granddaughter and said, "Silly girl, we are family and we should not talk behind each other's backs. You are my granddaughter, how can I not help my family?"

"Thank you, Grandpa!"

Yan Funing held her grandfather's arm affectionately, turned around and saw that her grandmother was angry, so she quickly put her other hand around her arm.

Everyone entered the dining room.

While the servants were setting up the food, Yan Funing talked about going to the cold palace today: "My husband and I went to see Concubine Yun, and she said I looked like my grandmother." "Grandfather, grandmother, please take a closer look at me. Do I look like my grandmother?"

The old Duke squinted his eyes and took a closer look: "Yes, they are somewhat similar."

"They are quite similar, especially the mouth," said Old Madam Hong.

"Concubine Yun said that when my step-grandmother married into the Yan family, she was already in her twenties. There must have been some reason why she didn't get married at that age..."

As she spoke, Yan Funing looked at her grandfather cautiously.

"Grandfather, have you checked anything?"

Yan Cheng sighed and shook his head at his little daughter, signaling her not to ask any more questions.

Yan Yingying also shook her head at her sister: "I have asked before, but Grandfather didn't listen to me."

"You kid, it's New Year's Day, why are you talking about this?" Hong Qingyi said, "Come on, everyone, take your seats. Let's eat early tonight."

The old Duke said, "It's time to check. I was too lazy to check before."

I'm too lazy to know.

I was afraid that after knowing the truth, I and my family would not be able to accept it.

But now it’s different. Sometimes the old woman goes too far.

"Finally I want to investigate." Old Madam Hong said, "But after so many years, what can you use to investigate? Where do you start?"

"It is indeed a problem." The old Duke murmured, "She has not done anything bad, so it is fine to keep her."

Madam Hong glanced at him and said, "After your first wife left, everyone around her was dismissed by your step-wife. You don't take care of the trivial matters at home, so you probably don't know about this."

The old Duke admitted: "I really didn't know."

"Many of these people were older than us, and they are no longer alive. Even those who were younger than us could not be found, but one of them came to me some time ago."

"Who?"

"The maidservant beside your first wife."

"Where is she? What does she know? Call her over quickly."

"It's not that easy during the New Year holidays," said Old Madam Hong. "I'll send someone to look for it tomorrow and tell you when I get the news."

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Finally, you said something human."

Hearing this, the old Duke was no longer angry and took the chopsticks first: "Come on, everyone, drink and eat."

He glanced at Zeng Kerou and said, "My granddaughter-in-law is pregnant and can't drink. Brother Lang is too young and can't drink. Everyone else, come on, raise your glasses."

Everyone responded and took their wine glasses.

The night is as cold as water.

It was already late at night when Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing returned to the Third Prince's Mansion.

After getting off the carriage, Yan Funing felt a little unsteady, all because she had drunk a lot of wine at her mother's house.

The person clearly wanted to move forward, but instead bumped into Fu Ciyi's arms.

The man quickly picked her up and walked inside.

Eunuch Song and Butler Yu came forward upon seeing this.

"Is the princess drunk?" asked Eunuch Song.

"Not drunk." Yan Funing muttered.

Listening to her coquettish voice, Fu Ciyi smiled indulgently and said to Eunuch Song: "Not too drunk, just a little drunk."

"Then I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some sobering soup," said Yu Liang.

"Okay." Fu Ciyi said calmly.

So, Eunuch Song carried the two masters back to their rooms with a lantern, while Yu Liang went to the kitchen.

On the way, Eunuch Song said, "Your Highness, today the Emperor is conferring a title to the Empress, so the court officials will certainly suggest that the Emperor confer a title to the Crown Prince. I am the one appointed by the late Emperor to be by Your Highness' side, so I want to give you a heads up." (End of this chapter)
