Ye Zhen was caught off guard by her nephew's words. She held her niece in her arms and stared blankly at her stubborn nephew. His eyes were full of anger as if he was going to stand up for someone.
Jin Shanshan was so angry that she wanted to slap him.
"You're just a child. Whatever you say is unintentional." Ye Zhen held Jin Shanshan's hand. "Besides, he's right. I hurt Mingyu's heart."
"How is that your fault?" Jin Shanshan cried. If it wasn't for that Qiu Hui who caught Ming Xi, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly. "Brother Sheng is still young."
Jin Shanshan glared at his son. "Aren't you going to apologize to Aunt?"
"No, I didn't say anything wrong," Ye Mucheng cried.
"You …" Jin Shanshan was so angry that she wanted to hit him.
Ye Zhen stopped her hand and said with a smile, "Didn't I say that Brother Sheng is still young? He'll be sensible in the future."
"Don't worry about this brat. We'll teach him a lesson when his father comes back." Jin Shanshan said angrily. She didn't even know what her son was thinking. How could he stand up for Mingyu?
This kind of attitude of shielding her cousin was right, but being unreasonable and blaming others without knowing the truth of the matter was not right.
If Yao Yao wasn't here, she would have beaten him up first.
"Brother Sheng, this is for you." Ye Zhen took out a delicate kaleidoscope and gave it to Ye Mucheng.
Ye Mucheng put his hands behind his back. He didn't want to accept Ye Zhen's gift.
"You can't buy this kaleidoscope anywhere else. It's full of magical beasts that you've never seen before." Ye Zhen said with a smile. She really didn't take her nephew's words to heart. If it was her, her reaction might have been even more intense than his.
After all, he was still young. He didn't know how difficult it was for her and Mo Rongzhan to make a choice at that time. Moreover, he was just feeling indignant for Mingyu. They left Mingyu here alone, which really made her feel wronged.
"You're a boy. Don't be shy. Just take what my mother gave you." Ming Xi stuffed the kaleidoscope into Ye Mucheng's hands. "You still want to stand up for Mingyu? Maybe Mingyu will protect you in the future."
Ye Mucheng stared at Ming Xi with widened eyes, trying hard to find any impression of Ming Xi in his memory.
"This is your cousin, Mingxi. Don't you remember?" Jin Shanshan reminded him. "When you were young, you loved to stick to your cousin."
Mingxi? Wasn't that Ming Yu's biological brother?
Ye Mucheng gripped the kaleidoscope tightly in his hand and stared straight at Ming Xi.
"Don't bother about this brat. Yaoyao, let's go in. Father and Madam are waiting for you," Jin Shanshan said and turned to look at An Ge, "Mr. An, please come in too."
An Ge and Fire Phoenix walked through the door without hesitation.
"Let's go." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Jin Shanshan took the child from her arms and handed it to the wet nurse next to her. "Don't look at Sister Xin's small size, she's also very heavy."
"Well raised." Ye Zhen looked at her white and tender niece, and her heart was filled with joy.
The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the hall.
Ye Mucheng was still standing in the same place. He looked at the kaleidoscope in his hand and then at Ming Xi, struggling in his heart. He was very curious about what the monster in this kaleidoscope looked like, but this was a gift from the bad aunt who left Ming Yu behind. If he accepted it, wouldn't it be very unprincipled?
"What are you thinking? Will Ming Yu ignore you if you accept this kaleidoscope? " Ming Xi smiled as he looked at Ye Mucheng. He still remembered this cousin of his. In the past, he was chubby. After a few years, this cousin of his had grown quite a bit, but he still looked the same as before, silly and silly.
Ye Mucheng glanced at Ming Xi. "Cousin Ming Yu won't ignore me."
"Then why are you dawdling?" Ming Xi asked with a smile. "Let's go, don't be like a girl."
"What's a girl like?" Shang'er took Ming Xi's hand and asked.
Ming Xi smiled and said, "You'll know in the future."
Ye Mucheng pointed at Shang'er. "Who is she?"
Is it another daughter of my aunt? It doesn't look like it.
"I'm Shang'er." Shang'er smiled sweetly at Ye Mucheng. "I'm Ming Xi's …"
"Friend," Ming Xi said.
Ye Mucheng looked at Shang'er. This was the first time he had seen a girl as beautiful as Ming Yu.
"He's my cousin, Ye Mucheng. You can just call him Brother Sheng," Ming Xi said. "Let's go in."
"Ming Xi, when are you going to take me out to play?" Shang'er held Ming Xi's hand and followed him closely.
"Don't rush, we'll go later," Ming Xi said.
Ye Mucheng looked at them for a while and finally followed them in. "Have you guys seen Cousin Ming Yu?"
"Yes." Ming Xi nodded. "Looks like you play with Ming Yu often?"
"Cousin sometimes stays at home. She's very nice to me and my sister," Ye Mucheng said. He looked like he admired Ming Yu a lot.
Shang'er asked softly, "Who is Ming Yu? Is she the sister you were talking about? "
"Yes." Ming Xi smiled and nodded. "When I see her next time, I'll introduce her to you."
"Okay." Shang'er said with a smile.
Ye Mucheng whispered a few words.
Ming Xi turned to look at him. "What did you say?"
"Nothing." Ye Mucheng shook his head vigorously. He would not say it out loud. Cousin Ming Yu knew they were at home and would certainly not leave the palace.
In the hall, Ye Zhen was playing with her younger brother, Ye Chunhe. Ye Chunhe looked like Ye Yiqing, with delicate and beautiful facial features.
When Ye Zhen said that she would leave the capital in two days, Zhao Yang and Jin Shanshan were stunned.
Ye Yiqing already knew about it, so he was not surprised. He took the opportunity to take An Ge to the study to ask him a few questions.
Fire Phoenix had to go out to find Ming Xi.
"Yao Yao, why are you leaving so soon after coming back?" Jin Shanshan asked doubtfully. "Don't you want to go to the palace to pick up Ming Yu?"
"Yes, it's too urgent." Zhao Yang frowned. "Even if you want to leave the capital, you should at least … tell Ming Yu first."
If they left without any explanation, the knot in their hearts would never be untied.
"Where do you think I'm going?" Ye Zhen smiled helplessly. "We just want to find Yi. Also, I will go to the palace to find Ming Yu tomorrow. She doesn't want to see me, but I still have to explain it to her."
Jin Shanshan said, "You scared me to death."
Zhao Yang frowned. "You just came back. How can you go to find Yi? Is there no one else in the Jin Kingdom? "
"It's Ah Zhan's idea." Ye Zhen whispered. "We've sent a lot of people, but there's still no news. Ah Zhan and I won't attract anyone's attention if we go to Qi."
"Then you really have to talk to Ming Yu," Zhao Yang said in a low voice.
