Fucheng glanced at Jin Wang’s gloomy face. He couldn’t understand what his highness was thinking.

Nanny Su had gone home. His highness had already known about it for days in advance. If he wasn’t willing for her to leave, he should have expressed it. Instead, he remained sullen and ordered people to report on the small courtyard’s affairs every day.

He knew that both Consort Jin and Side Consort Hu had bestowed some gifts. To curry favour with the consort, Concubine Feng, Lady Li and Lady Tao had also conferred some rewards.

Besides the ladies of the rear courtyard, Mammy Mu also granted some things to Yaoniang.

Jin Wang was the master of the manor. It was one thing for him not to know about Yaoniang returning home, but he should have also bestowed some gifts since he knew. Yaoniang was a hard worker and also suffered from being wronged by others. Moreover, she also shared a special relationship with Jin Wang.

But Jin Wang didn’t. Instead, he asked for reports about what gifts Yaoniang was given even though he himself did not give anything to Yaoniang

Based on Fucheng’s many years of experience, his highness was sulking and irritated.

But it wasn’t the first time for Jin Wang and Yaoniang to be at loggerheads. It could be seen from how he would only visit the small courtyard late at night. Sometimes he would even decide not to go, only to change his mind later and arrive far later into the evening than usual

Fucheng thought what was the point? If he wished to go somewhere, just go. Why bother having an internal conflict over this type of matter?

But Fucheng dared not say this out loud. He still wanted to live for some more years.

The servants below had already come to report that Nanny Su was packed up and prepared to leave the manor. Jin Wang obviously wanted to go see her off, but he still hesitated and didn’t make a move. Until Yaoniang had almost reached the gate, did he make up an excuse to go. Then when he reached the manor’s side gate, he happened to stumble on this scene.

Fucheng looked at the young driver who was talking to Nanny Su. He concluded that the man was smiling abnormally.

Did this young man have ideas about Nanny Su?

This thought excited Fucheng. When he peered at Jin Wang’s face, it had indeed become colder and his expression was chilling to the core.

Fucheng couldn’t help but compare the two men. If he was Nanny Su, he would rather look at the smiling face than the cold face.

Humph!

He seemed to have heard a cold snort. Fucheng turned around and saw Jin Wang walking away.

The pair of people over there still hasn’t even noticed anything.

Yaoniang got in the carriage, and Zhou Sheng drove away from the side entrance of the prince’s manor.

He had good driving skills. The carriage ran fast and steady. Yaoniang couldn’t even feel any jolts while sitting inside.

Actually, it was also because the manor had good quality carriages. After Mammy Mu had spoken, Zhou Sheng deliberately picked one of the good carriages. The type which was specially prepared for the masters to use. These carriages were wide and large. There were also couches inside, which made the carriages comfortable to sit in.

Yaoniang looked around curiously. Only after she asked about it did she learn that it was a carriage designed for the masters of the prince’s manor.

“Will this cause trouble for Brother Zhou?” Yaoniang had always been a responsible person. She would feel bad if someone got in trouble because of her.

“It’s nothing. The master and the mistresses of the manor rarely go out. These carriages are very well taken care of, it would be a pity for them to be left idle from lack of use,” said Zhou Sheng carelessly.

After a pause, he continued, “To be honest, these carriages are often borrowed by the other favoured servants in the manor. Those who work in the horse and carriage department also turn a blind eye to it to prevent themselves from offending anyone. Nanny Su, Mammy Mu had personally ordered a carriage for you, so there’s nothing anyone can say about it. “

Hearing this, Yaoniang was relieved.

It seemed that Zhou Sheng travelled on this road often. He didn’t even stop to take a break but simply continued down the road.

The weather was sweltering. To reduce the heat, Yaoniang opened the carriage door to allow for better air circulation.

Zhou Sheng was very happy to see this because now he could talk with her. He was more than willing to speak with Yaoniang. They talked with each other the entire trip and time flew by very quickly. By the end of the trip, they had a very good understanding of each other.

At the very least, Yaoniang knew about Zhou Sheng’s hometown and some of his family’s situation. Zhou Sheng also learned more about Yaoniang’s history. Yaoniang still used the same excuse where her ex-husband was a vendor. An accident had happened when he went out to sell goods. Then he passed away, leaving behind a pregnant wife.

“Nanny Su, there’s no need to be devastated. Life goes on. See, isn’t everything going well now?” Zhou Sheng wasn’t very good at coaxing others and his words of comfort were very dry.

When Yaoniang looked at him, she smiled a little. “Thank you, Brother Zhou, for your concern. I’m fine now. I’m happy to work in the prince’s manor to earn more money. Then, I will go home and raise Xiaobao.”

Zhou Sheng, who was still driving the carriage, looked at her from the corner of his eyes. He endured, but he simply couldn’t help but ask, “Nanny Su, you don’t plan on marrying again?”

During the Dagan dynasty, widows often remarried, especially in Jinzhou. Because of its location which was near the borders, the local customs were relatively more open.

When she heard this, Yaoniang couldn’t help but be stunned. She lowered her head. “As a woman with a dead husband and a young child, which man would be willing to marry me?”

Zhou Sheng wished to express he was.

Unfortunately, he didn’t dare to.

These past few days, like a possessed man, he dreamed of her every night. All he wanted was to rush up to her and tell her that he wanted to marry her. But when the actual person sat in front of him with her fair and flawless face, he became scared.

Zhou Sheng’s entire body was tense and his heart was pounding like crazy. He suppressed his nervousness and squeezed out some words of praise to Yaoniang.

It was probably the first time for him to compliment someone, so he wasn’t very skilled. But he still managed to amuse Yaoniang.

“Brother Zhou, thank you very much.”
