Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 489 - : Di : Father and Son Duel

Chapter 489: Di Chapter 489: Father and Son Duel

Liu Sisi was also stunned!

“Let’s go! Let’s go inside and have a look.” She hurriedly led everyone around the screen to the back.

Inside was empty, with nothing in it, and the situation she had worried about did not happen.

She breathed a sigh of relief! Then she went back outside and carefully examined the screen.

Guihua came closer and said, “Perhaps the previous owner felt that these items were too big and inconvenient to move, so they left them behind…”

“Do you think it’s possible? Sister Guihua, look!”

Liu Sisi casually picked up one of the flower vases, “This vase is indeed big, but it’s far from being impossible to move. Moreover, such an unusual shape and glaze, even for an outsider like me, I’m afraid it’s not a common thing. According to the previous owner, he sold this manor because he urgently needed silver. Shouldn’t he have moved such valuable items and sold them first?”

“Yes, it’s really strange…”

Liu Zhi’er and Guihua looked at each other, unable to figure out the key to the matter.

Guihua thought for a moment and came up with an idea, “I heard from someone that many wealthy families would place flower vases next to screens to improve the feng shui of their house. Could it be that this vase is an object used to stabilize the house’s energy, so the former owner didn’t touch it?”

There was even less of an answer to this elusive matter.

“Hey! Sisi, you’re thinking too much. No matter what the previous owner was thinking, they sold it to you now, so it’s yours. Whether you live in this manor or leave it vacant, isn’t it up to you? Just relax!”

Indeed, that was the case!

Liu Sisi finally put her doubts aside, and everyone toured the house briefly before returning to their carriage and heading back.

Not long after the carriage left, a carrier pigeon spread its wings and flew from outside the manor, heading towards Heilong Mountain.

On Heilong Mountain.

The night gradually fell, and the continuous spring rain drizzled down, moistening the earth silently.

Elder Leisure stood in the bamboo house, looking up at the wintersweet on the windowsill that was gradually withering, and sighed inaudibly.

“Summon someone!”

A person entered silently from the outside and knelt down in front of him.

“Master!”

Elder Leisure showed impatience and waved his sleeve casually, “Send someone to urge them, why hasn’t the news been delivered from over there yet?”

“Reporting to Master, the news just arrived from there. Please take a look, Master!”

The person hurriedly presented the paper strip.

“Oh, bring it quickly.”

Elder Leisure anxiously snatched the paper strip and carefully read the content on it, then burst into laughter.

“As expected, my good daughter! Just by relying on these clues, she became suspicious. Good! Good!”

He put down the paper strip in his hand, looked up at the kneeling guard, and asked, “How is the progress on the other side? Have you all arranged it properly?”

“This…”

As the guard barely raised his head and met the other’s gaze, he was frightened and quickly crawled on the ground, shivering uncontrollably.

“Master, forgive me! It’s not because we failed to do our job properly, but the heir… he…”

“Huh? How is this matter related to him now? Speak!”

Elder Leisure’s complexion changed.

“Begging your pardon, Your Majesty, we dare not speak recklessly.”

“You are pardoned! Speak!”

“Yes, things initially went smoothly. However, unexpectedly, the heir intervened, not only driving the widower away from the riverside, but also assigning him a sub-captain position. We did not dare to take matters into our hands. Please enlighten us, Your Majesty, on what to do next?”

“Oh? So, the unfilial son actually arranged a sub-captain position for him? What is his intention? Is he planning to keep supporting a man who failed his wife and mother? Elder Leisure’s expression became especially unsightly.”

“This… we do not know.”

The guard was almost burying his head in the ground.

Elder Leisure walked over to the window, clad in a purple-black gold-trimmed long banner, golden crown, and gorgeous clothes, exuding a noble and undying air with his handsome features.

“Didn’t he say that I oppose everything he does? Well, let him handle this matter! I am curious to see how far the person he favors can go. By the way, what has the unfilial son been up to lately?”

“We have discovered that the heir often appears near the Young Lord’s residence, possibly secretly protecting him.”

“Let him protect the Young Lord if he wants! By the way, increase our forces to make sure no one gets a chance to hurt her. Understand?”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Elder Leisure pondered for a moment, “Issue an order to find a way to send him to the border city. I want to see what the person he chose is really capable of, even daring to oppose me.”

“Yes!”

The guard heaved a sigh of relief! The most difficult situation was for them, the subordinates caught between the father and son conflict.

Gazing at the quiet darkness outside the window, Elder Leisure’s face was filled with sadness, “Xin’er, I am really lonely and miss you… Can you see it? Our child has grown up. I have also fulfilled my promise to you, allowing her to live a peaceful, worry-free life like an ordinary person.”

“Xin’er, I cannot always see her, and I really miss her. Whenever I see her, it is as if I am seeing you… Di, Ye, Lei! I hope you can pass my test; otherwise… hehe!”

It was only when the day had completely darkened that Di Yelei returned, riding his jujube red horse.

Upon returning, he burst into laughter, paying no heed to the presence of Ms. Gao and Granny Hu in the room. He directly embraced Liu Sisi, hugging her tightly.

“Sisi, Sisi, I’m back. Sisi, I was so busy today and missed you so much.”

“Let go, you bastard! So many people are watching, hurry up and let go…”

Liu Sisi finally struggled free from his embrace, just in time to see Granny Hu and Ms. Gao blushing and quickly walking out of the room.

She hurriedly glared at him, “Look what you did! You shouldn’t act like this the moment you return, it’s embarrassing for them.”

“Haha… We are husband and wife, what’s wrong with hugging each other? I want to do even more things…”

As he spoke, his wolfish hands reached out for her again, playfully pouncing at her and pushing her down on the bed.

“Ah! Ye Lei… you’re so heavy! Be careful of the baby …”

Liu Sisi tried to push him away several times, but to no avail.

Although he firmly restrained her, he was considerate enough not to press on her swollen abdomen, holding her tightly instead.

“Don’t move, Sisi. Let me hug you for a moment, just for a short moment.”

He needed her strength, so he could persevere! He had her, their child, and his father to support; he could not afford to lose!

Di Yelei subconsciously tightened his arms, burying his face in her neck, absorbing her warmth, letting the tender and warm embrace soothe his restless heart.
