C44 Farewell (1/2)

Su Zeyi was leaving early the next morning, as the people of Su Mansion had already woken up to send him off.

stood behind Old Madam Su and whispered to her. Old Madam Su nodded her head.

Because he slept late, Zhong Miao Yi was tired and his mind was in a state of chaos, let alone talking.

No one noticed the Zhong Miao Yi who was napping in the crowd. Only when Su Zeyi deliberately searched around, did she see the extremely sleepy Zhong Miao Yi.

Could it be that after he left last night, Zhong Miao Yi didn't sleep well?

She still cared about it.

Su Zeyi's mood suddenly became better. He did not call Zhong Miao Yi over, if he did, everyone would be discussing why she was so tired, and she would say to Old Madam Su in a soft voice: ”During this time, I have to trouble Mother to take care of Miaoyi, she is not well.”

Old Mistress Su nodded her head, ”I know, you can go without worries.”

Su Zeyi specially mentioned the Zhong Miao Yi, Yun Mengqi was not very happy, seeing that she did not seem to be injured, and did not alert anyone, could it be that she was not pierced by needles? Still. Did she find it?

But these things were not the main focus of their happiness, when the time came, Su Zeyi brought his men and left.

Old Mistress Su stood on the spot and looked for a long time until she couldn't see it clearly before she reluctantly walked back.

Yun Mengqi supported Old Madam Su and said, ”Mother, don't worry. Brother Ze Yi is the bravest of them all and this is not the first time he's been working for the Emperor. Don't worry.”

Old Mistress Su sighed and nodded, ”No matter how capable he is, he's still my son. How can his son not be concerned about him when he's away as a mother?”

After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly sighed, ”That's true. You are still young and have never given birth to a child. When you have one in the future, you will understand how I feel.”

Yun Mengqi suddenly blushed: ”Yes, I will do my best, Mother, don't worry.”

Because Yun Mengqi was accompanying Old Mistress Su, Zhong Miao Yi went back to rest. This time, she did not sleep soundly, there were always people walking back and forth outside, it was not peaceful at all.

It was unknown who Xiao Yao was talking to, but there seemed to be clanging sounds of chopsticks hitting against each other outside.

When the intense sleepiness had passed, Zhong Miao Yi sat up and rubbed her glabella.

The things inside the house had already been reorganized and confirmed that there were no more silver needles inside, but Xiao Yao was still very worried.

He was very sleepy and his brain wasn't clear, so he couldn't hear clearly who Xiao Yao was talking to or what he wanted to say.

Now that she sat up, her mind slowly cleared up. Only then did she realise that Xiao Yao was holding the servants accountable for the interrogation, which was probably a question of whether they were loyal or not.

She didn't say specifically what had happened, but fooling him with half the truth and half a lie had some effect.

After last night, she had already made up her mind that she would personally check all of Zhong Miao Yi's food in the future, and definitely would not allow Yun Mengqi to find another loophole.
