Chapter 704: Honored Guest at the Door

Di Yelei shook his head and stood up, picked up the towel and combed his long hair, then walked over to hug her.

“Don’t think about those things now, it’s not early, you should go wash and get ready quickly. Do you want me to help you with your grooming?” he asked, a muffled chuckle escaping from his chest.

“Who needs your help? Get lost!”

Liu Sisi rolled her eyes and pushed him away before tidying up her things and going to bathe.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She couldn’t help but think of the words Mrs.Ran had said to her a few days ago.

“Now that people have silver, the first choice is naturally to buy land. Once you have land, you can rent it out for silver. If you have more silver, you can buy servants. Don’t stuff all the servants you buy into the manor, instead, set up a shop for them directly, get a grasp on the contracts for the land and the shop, and then send people to check and collect accounts every day…”

Maybe… When she has some extra money, she could learn from it too.

Early in the morning on August 15th, the Di Family began preparations.

“Why haven’t Dad and the others arrived yet? Hasn’t the letter been delivered?”

After peeking his head out the door for the third time, Di Yelei finally couldn’t help but ask.

“How could they be here so early? Even if they set out before dawn, they won’t arrive here until noon, right?” Liu Sisi couldn’t help but laugh.

Di Yelei was somewhat embarrassed: “I’m just worried.”

He had made the temporary decision to celebrate the festival at home and didn’t know if his father would agree to come.

“Dad is not an unreasonable person, you can rest assured.”

Liu Sisi was very confident:” In another half month, it will be the hundredth day of the triplets’ birth, and I plan to hold a grand celebration, inviting relatives and friends to gather and making everyone happy.”

The Hundred-Day Feast for triplets was no ordinary event and could not be treated lightly.

“Isn’t there still more than half a month? Why the hurry?”

This was not something you could rush just by getting anxious.

As the two were talking, a gatekeeper suddenly came to report: “Old Master, Madam, Prince Gong is here to visit!”

Big brother is here!

Liu Sisi was delighted and quickly went out with Di Yelei to greet him at the main entrance.

A seemingly ordinary carriage was parked at the entrance, and as the carriage curtain was lifted, Nan Tianzong stepped down directly.

“Big brother is here, sorry for my late welcome. I hope you can be understanding,” Di Yelei hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

“It’s alright, it’s alright. Let’s go in and talk.” Nan Tianzong didn’t say much and hurriedly walked into the mansion.

As they walked, Liu Sisi’s gaze met that of the white-faced, beardless old man beside him, and her whole body shuddered involuntarily.

That man was none other than Eunuch Xiao, who had come to deliver the imperial decree. He silently smiled at her, even bowing deeply to her as a sign of respect. Liu Sisi was shocked and quickly returned the bow, but he dodged her courtesy.

Who would be the person Eunuch Xiao follows closely? What was his identity? The more Liu Sisi thought about it, the more confused she became, and she couldn’t help but be frightened by the sudden turn of events!

Once they reached the living room, Nan Tianzong finally introduced him with a smile.

“Yelei, let me introduce to you, this is Young Master Di. Young Master Di, this is Di Yelei, my sister’s husband,” he said.

Nan Tianzong’s real name was Zhao Heng, so he referred to himself as Heng.

The man looked to be around fifty years old and was well-maintained. He had followed Nan Tianzong off the carriage from the moment Liu Sisi and her husband appeared but had gone unnoticed. From the moment Liu Sisi and her husband appeared, the man stared at her without blinking, not even wanting to move his eyeballs away.

Di Yelei was dazed for a moment, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival today, why did Nan Tianzong bring an outsider to visit?

Although he was thinking about it, he didn’t reveal his intentions and greeted Young Master Di with a fist: “Ye Lei has met Young Master Di!”

Liu Sisi also hurriedly bowed down.

“I’ve often heard about you from Heng’er, you’re young and promising, not bad, very good!”

After sizing up the two for a moment, Young Master Di casually praised Di Yelei and then turned his gaze to Liu Sisi.

“Are you Ruyu?”

Uncle?

Liu Sisi at the side also raised her eyebrows in surprise. There were probably not many people who could be introduced by Nan Tianzong and be called ‘Uncle’! Who was this person and why was he using her real name?

“Sisi pays her respects to Young Master Di.” Liu Sisi had no choice but to bow down again.

“Quickly get up, don’t bow anymore. Come! Sit over here.”

Young Master Di stepped forward and personally helped Liu Sisi up, paying no heed to avoid suspicion. Liu Sisi wanted to dodge, but she couldn’t reach the other party’s dominance. She was directly escorted to a chair to sit down, and then the Young Master stared at her face carefully, not letting go of a single detail.

“Like! Really like, indeed too much like!”

Young Master Di murmured in his mouth, staring at Liu Sisi’s face until the circle around his eyes gradually turned red.

While talking, he couldn’t help but raise his hand and directly brush Liu Sisi’s face, frightening her into widening her eyes.

Unable to bear it any longer, Di Yelei stepped forward in two strides to speak, but was strongly grabbed by Nan Tianzong nearby and directly dragged out of the living room.

“Let go! Who is that man? Where did he get the title of uncle, and why is he treating Sisi like that?”

Di Yelei had anger in his heart and didn’t restrain his voice at all.

“Hush!”

Nan Tianzong looked at the four people who were guarding both sides of the living room and quickly dragged Di Yelei away: “If you don’t want to die, think about all the people in Di Residence, do you want them all to die here?”

“What do you mean?” Di Yelei showed no signs of backing down.

“You… what could I mean? Sisi is my sister, would I harm her? ”

Nan Tianzong felt helpless, and after investigating the surroundings for a moment, he whispered in Di Yelei’s ear.

Finally, he sighed and said, “Now you know, right?”

Di Yelei’s eyes widened, completely unexpected such a result: “How… how could it be him?”

In the living room.

Liu Sisi brushed herself hard and bowed down to escape from his hand, standing far away staring at him.

“Young Master Di… ”

“Don’t be afraid, I won’t hurt you.”

Seeing the outstretched hand fall empty, Young Master Di finally came to his senses.

“… ”

Isn’t it supposed to be misunderstood in this way? Liu Sisi felt resentful in her belly.

“Sisi is not blessed enough to be close to Young Master Di, for fear of offending you. If this causes any trouble, it won’t be good. Please sit down, Young Master Di.”

Although Liu Sisi was still smiling, there was a flame burning in her eyes.

Young Master Di didn’t care about her deliberately distancing herself from him, but on the contrary showed a loving look on his face.

“The last thing I’m afraid of is trouble! Ruyu, you don’t need to be so afraid of me. You may not remember me, but I won’t forget you. I still remember when your mother gave birth to you, it was me who personally cut your umbilical cord!”
