Time Travel: The Noble Family

By mid-April, Tingzheng had followed Li Guoxing and left the Capital City.

After seeing off Tingzheng, Yueyao prepared to return to the manor. Ma Chengteng had no objections, but Zhuang Ruolan did. Zhuang Ruolan said, "What’s so good about the countryside? There is nothing there."

Yueyao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, it’s cooler at the manor. The Capital City is hotter than the manor." This was the best reason Yueyao could find.

Zhuang Ruolan laughed and said, "Even if you’re worried about the heat in the Capital City, you should go in May. You definitely can’t go now. If you find it boring, it just so happens that I’ve been very busy lately; you could help me manage the household."

Yueyao had no desire to manage the household and quickly declined.

Cai Xiang walked in from outside and said, "Madam, the Eldest Young Master of the Lian family is here. He says he wants to see the young lady."

Cai Xiang was originally a second-class maid by Zhuang Ruolan’s side. Cai Yun and Cai Yi got married in February and March respectively. They were still in their honeymoon period and would definitely return after some time, appearing then as maids-in-law.

Yueyao had no desire to interact with the people from the Lian family, but since Lian Tingli had come in person and had not openly broken face with her, she naturally could not be too excessive. When she arrived at the front yard and saw the upright, handsome, and mature Tingli, Yueyao squatted down and gave a greeting: "Eldest brother, I hope you are well."

Tingli had visited once before, wanting to talk to Yueyao about Tingzheng’s matter. However, last time Yueyao pretended to be sick and did not meet him. In the end, Tingzheng safely went with Li Guoxing to another place. Because of this, Lian Dongfang was very angry but dared not to do anything to Yueyao, as she had something on him. Lian Dongfang blamed everything on Lady Mo and completely tired of her, planning to let his daughter-in-law take over the managing of the household once she entered the family, and relegating Lady Mo to the Small Buddhist Hall.

Seeing Yueyao, who was now half a head taller than Yuebing and had a ruddy complexion, Tingli smiled and said, "My sister has changed so much that I hardly recognize her."

Once she left the Lian family, Yueyao’s mood also broadened; no longer fearful, she let herself go, and her complexion became even better, lively and fresh like a pearl onion.

Yueyao smiled and said, "It’s just like that. Eldest brother, is there something you need from me?" If there was nothing important, Tingli wouldn’t have come; no one visits without a reason.
