Chapter 462 - 213: Truly a Den of Cannon Fodder (Part 2)
In order to help Zhenzhen adapt, Lu Wu has been staying in the mansion these days and naturally needs to dine with them, but after all, he is an outsider, not suitable to frequently visit Wan’an Garden.
Therefore, during this period, the dining location has been changed to the front yard.
By the time Lady Yun and her entourage arrived, Yun Wanchen, Lu Wu, and Zhenzhen were already there. Apart from Yun Zheng and Yun Zhan, who were attending court, and Yun Chuchu, who was bedridden and recuperating, only Yun Wanye was absent.
"Good day, my lady, eldest miss, Miss Ningning..."
Seeing the mother and daughters, Lu Wu quickly greeted them with a cheerful yet respectful approach, to which Lady Yun and Yun Wanyao responded warmly.
Even the mute Yun Wanqing did not ignore them, waving her tiny hand while warmly greeting them in her mind.
"Hello, Uncle Lu."
Yun Wanchen: "..."
Yun Wanyao: "..."
The siblings were slightly taken aback.
They all called him Brother Lu, but the younger sister just blurted out Uncle Lu, messing up the seniority.
Oh well, since the little sister can’t speak yet, no one knows about this title issue. When she learns to talk, they’ll have her call him Brother Lu too.
"Huh, elder brother, where’s Yun Wanye? Isn’t he coming for dinner?"
After regaining her composure, Yun Wanyao looked around and, not finding Yun Wanye, looked up at Yun Wanchen in confusion.
Yun Wanchen nodded slightly and said, "Ye’er said he has something to do today, so he won’t be dining with us."
"Oh."
Yun Wanyao replied softly, feeling a bit disappointed. She had something to discuss with him, so why did he run off again?
He said he had something to do; could it be he went to see the Princess again?
That damned fellow, ever since he won over the Princess, he’s been visiting the Princess Mansion every day regardless of the weather. Normally it’s fine, but today she has something very important!
Sigh, never mind, better wait until he returns. Being anxious doesn’t help.
After taking their seats, they began to dine.
Yun Wanqing was full, and although the aroma of the dishes on the table still tempted her, it was far less attractive than when she was hungry. She could completely resist it.
Lying idly on the couch, her bright eyes wandered around, watching the others at the table.
Seeing that Zhenzhen, who is over seven years old, can’t even use chopsticks, she couldn’t help but feel a pang of heartache.
[The Shang Family people are too cruel, they completely raised this little girl like a dog before, eating all spoilt food, not even giving tableware...]
[The little girl had to use her hands directly and was ridiculed by those illegitimate children and Shang Rong as a barbarian.]
[After the ridicule, she would be beaten and scolded.]
[Our family is much better, seeing the little girl couldn’t use chopsticks, mother and sister patiently taught her without any disdain because the little girl was over seven but couldn’t use chopsticks.]
[Sigh, the little girl is really pitiful...]
[She is clearly the legitimate daughter, yet she never had a good day in the Shang family, daily enduring beatings and scoldings, or hunger, her dignity trampled underfoot repeatedly.]
[I don’t even know about her eyes, legs, and the injuries on her body.]
[She repels strangers, I don’t have any opportunity to approach her, can’t check for her.]
[However, father already had the household doctor check on her, some less complicated issues should be handled by the household doctor, but as for the more complicated ones...]
[Sigh, I can’t even stand up now, can’t do anything personally, just have to wait, at least until I can walk.]
After murmuring about Zhenzhen, Yun Wanqing accidentally caught Lu Wu in her peripheral vision, feeling another pang of irritation.
[Sigh, really a den of cannon fodder.]
[Or maybe, when entering the dream for second brother, I should also tell him about your matter, let him remind you...]
This thought had just surfaced but was immediately dismissed by her.
[No, no, the most important thing is the mission right now!]
[This mission is too critical; telling the second brother so many things at once, what if he gets confused and delays the mission? What then?]
[So, let’s put other matters off for now.]
Entering dreams consumes a lot of spiritual power.
Yun Wanqing is still young, her physical condition isn’t great, and her spiritual power level isn’t high enough, just a few minutes in the dream and she would be weak for the whole day, with migraines for several days, it’s very uncomfortable.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have to make it so complicated, she could just project scenes within her range of spiritual power into everyone’s dreams directly.
This time is precisely because the mission is too important, she went all out, otherwise, entering dreams isn’t so casual.
