Chapter 1482 - 1485: Mother and Son Reunion_1
Seeing him like this, Yang Chuxia hurriedly said, "Yes, granduncle’s lesson is well taken, I will speak no more."
"That’s settled then," Old Mu waved his hand and said, "Alright, take your time packing up. I’ll head over to the Third Prince’s residence first."
After Old Mu had left, Yang Chuxia carefully sized up the residence and found it quite satisfactory.
"Mother, granduncle’s courtyard is so big, even bigger than the one back at our old home."
"It’s indeed quite big." Yang Chuxia laughed and asked, "Do you like the Capital City, Yangyang? Do you like it here?"
"I haven’t played around in the Capital City yet, so I can’t say if I like it or not. As for the courtyard, I still prefer our home’s little building." He said in his childlike voice, "Mother, our little building at home is very pretty and the color is nice too. It’s just a shame we can’t always live there."
"Yes, it is a shame." By the time they could live in that little building permanently, it would be more than a decade later, probably.
"Mother, I’m hungry. Can we eat first?" Moments later, as Yang Chuxia was tidying up with the maids, Yangyang came over with his little hands on his stomach.
On hearing his question, one of the maids hurried forward and said, "The meal is ready. Madam, would you like me to bring the food over, or would you and the young master go to the hall to eat?"
"We’ll go there to eat."
After looking at the two little ones, Yang Chuxia took Yangyang to the dining hall, and after eating, the mother and son took a rest.
"Mother, why hasn’t brother come yet?" It was already the end of the 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. time period, and Yangyang had been eagerly peering out into the courtyard since waking up from his nap.
"Sit down, be patient. Granduncle went to the palace, and he will surely bring brother out." Hmph, now that she was in the Capital City, she couldn’t believe the Emperor would not allow her son to leave the palace.
"Alright then."
Seeing this, Yangyang had no choice but to sit back down on the chair.
About a quarter of an hour later, suddenly from outside came a calling, "Mother! Mother!" It was Lele’s voice, and Yang Chuxia was so excited that she spilled the water from her cup all over herself.
Putting down the teacup, she hurried out to greet them, and just as she reached the outside, a little figure dashed over and hugged her legs tightly. Yang Chuxia squatted down and embraced her son tightly in her arms.
"Mother, mother!"
"Lele, my treasure, mother has missed you so!"
"Mother, your son missed you too, and father, and brother."
"Such a good boy!" Yang Chuxia pulled him out of her arms to take a good look at him. His face, resembling Brother An’s, was as rosy and delicate as ever, lips red and teeth white, and his face still chubby. Seeing that he appeared unharmed, Yang Chuxia finally let down the guard she had kept up for so long.
"Madam Ye, the Emperor asked this servant to inform you that the Eldest Young Master has not been mistreated in the palace," the eunuch who delivered Lele said, naturally omitting the part when Lele had first entered the palace.
Yang Chuxia lifted her head to see a familiar face.
"It turns out to be Eunuch Cui. Thank you for bringing my son back," she said.
"Madam Ye is too kind."
"Let’s all go inside; isn’t it cold standing out here?" Baili Yan, who had come with the others, spoke up in a timely manner.
Being preoccupied with holding her son, Yang Chuxia then realized that Baili Yan was there too, along with Old Mu.
Given Baili Yan’s status, just as Yang Chuxia was about to make the children pay their respects, Baili Yan gestured with his hand and said indifferently, "No need for formalities, let’s go inside."
Once inside and everyone was seated, Yang Chuxia was still holding Lele in her arms when Yangyang approached, "Mother, have you hugged brother enough? Once you’re done, let me hug him for a while."
