Li Ye immediately picked up the wine glass on the table and gestured to Young Master Liu with a faint smile.
"Yes, the child respects his uncle."
Liu Mingzhi placed the bottomed wine glass in front of the third princess, looked at Li Ye happily and said: "Ye'er, your status is really special, it is not suitable to live in Liu Mansion or an inn.
After we finished the wine, we rushed to the prince's old mansion where your mother now lives. "
Li Ye couldn't help but reveal a hint of doubt in his eyes. His face hesitated for a moment, and he looked at Mr. Liu with questioning intent.
"Uncle, didn't the child's mother move to the Liu Mansion to live with you, aunt?"
Liu Mingzhi heard that Li Ye's tone had changed slightly from before, and after thinking about it for a while, he understood what was going on.
"Ye'er, there's no need for you to think wildly, uncle, I have never treated your mother the slightest bit wrong.
The reason why she still lives in the former Prince's old mansion is because of her own decision, not because my uncle is unwilling to let her live in the Liu Mansion.
Over the years, my uncle and I have proposed more than once that she move to the Liu Mansion to live with me and your aunts. However, she refused directly every time.
It's not that my uncle and I wanted her to live in the old prince's mansion because I was worried about the rumors, but it's that your mother didn't want to move to Liu's mansion at all.
My uncle and I tried to persuade her again and again, but failed to convince her. She just refused to move there.
She is determined not to move there, so I can't tie her back to the Liu Mansion with all kinds of things, right?
I have no choice but to let your mother and queen continue to live in the original mansion.
I have to say that your mother is more difficult to find than Zhuge Kongming.
Your aunt also knows about asking your mother to move in with her. If you don't believe it, you can ask her if this is the case. "
Although Li Ye already believed Liu Dashao's words in his heart, he still subconsciously turned to look at his third aunt Li Yan, who was sitting next to him.
The third princess felt her nephew's gaze, smiled and nodded.
"Ye'er, your uncle didn't lie. What happened to your mother is indeed like this.
Regarding the matter of letting your mother move in with you, your uncle has mentioned it eighty times if not a hundred times, but he still hasn't convinced her.
In the end, I had no choice but to let her continue to live in the original mansion as your uncle said. "
Li Ye nodded clearly and looked at Young Master Liu with guilt in his eyes.
"I see, the kid has misunderstood his uncle. I hope my uncle won't blame the kid."
"Okay, okay, I'm not that cautious.
The old prince's old mansion is where you grew up. You are familiar with the environment there, so your food, clothing, housing and transportation will naturally be much more convenient.
And now there are only your mother, Lian Niang, Lao Gao and a few maids there, so you don't have to be too secretive after you live there.
The most important thing is that you can also take the opportunity to spend more time with your mother.
Today is the 12th, and your mother's birthday is the 16th. These three or four days are enough for you mother and son to reminisce about the past. "
"My uncle is still thoughtful. Thank you very much, my uncle."
"It's getting late. Let's have a drink. After we finish drinking, we'll go there together."
"Hey, my dear, let me give you another drink."
"There are not so many rules when we get along in private. Let's drink together."
"Drink together."
Time passed quietly, and the wine in the wine pot gradually became less and less as the two men drank. The drizzle outside the window seemed to become a little heavier, and the sound of raindrops falling on the roof could be vaguely heard.
Liu Mingzhi swallowed the last sip of wine and gently placed the wine glass on the table.
Silently taking a breath of alcohol, Young Master Liu looked at the Third Princess and Li Ye and their aunt and nephew with a faint smile, got up and walked out of the private room.
"We've finished drinking and it's almost time. Yan'er, Ye'er, let's go."
The third princess, aunt and nephew smiled lightly and nodded, then stood up and followed.
The third princess leaned over and picked up the oil-paper umbrella at hand. Li Ye also picked up his bamboo hat and put it on his head, regaining his previous appearance.
"Bizhu."
"Hey, I'm here!"
Xue Bizhu responded quickly and walked out of the counter with a smile: "Husband, have you eaten and drank enough?"
"Yes, after eating, I have some other things to do with Yan'er and this distinguished guest, so I'll go back first. You can get someone to clean up upstairs later."
"I know it."
"Bizhu, the rain outside seems to have gotten a lot heavier. Go get another umbrella and give it to this distinguished guest."
"Yes, husband, please wait a moment and I will come back as soon as I leave."
After a while, Xue Bizhu, who had returned, handed two brand-new oil-paper umbrellas to Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu respectively.
"Husband, there may be rain on the road, so don't forget to pay attention."
"I got it, Bizhu, go ahead and do your work. We're leaving first."
"Let's go."
Xue Bizhu watched as Mr. Liu and the others gradually disappeared into the rain curtain holding oil-paper umbrellas. He smiled lightly, shook his head a few times, turned around and walked towards the counter next to him.
In about two sticks of incense, the three of them arrived at the gate of the prince's old residence, holding oil-paper umbrellas.
Liu Mingzhi closed the oil-paper umbrella, then reached out and gently knocked on the door a few times, then smiled and waited.
"Who is it? There are no outsiders in this humble house."
"Lao Gao, it's me."
"It turns out to be sir. Sir, please wait a moment. I will open the door for you right away."
The door of the mansion gradually opened, and Gao Jin, with his hair full of silver hair, came out and bowed.
"Old slave, see you sir."
"It turns out that Her Royal Highness the Third Princess is also here. I want to see Her Royal Highness the Third Princess."
Liu Mingzhi and his wife chuckled, nodded, and waved their hands in unison.
"No gift."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, Your Highness the Princess."
Gao Jin straightened up and took two steps away without asking the identity of Li Ye next to Young Master Liu.
Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile, glanced back at Li Ye who was wearing a bamboo hat on his head, coughed slightly, and took the lead to walk into the mansion.
The third princess reached out and gently pulled Li Ye's sleeve, then silently followed in.
Li Ye raised his head and glanced at the familiar plaque above, then instinctively raised his feet and walked into the prince's old mansion.
After entering the house, Li Ye quietly looked at the environment in front of him through the gauze in front of him. It was so familiar, but also slightly strange.
Many years ago, this was the place where I was born and raised!
It has been more than six years since I left this place. I never thought that one day I would be able to visit my old place again.
Those sycamore trees have grown so tall. I remember that many years ago, I, my second brother and my little sister played under them.
At that time, the family had the father, the queen, the aunt, the second brother, sister Jingyao, and the toddler sister Zhiyao. Life was so happy and perfect.
Unfortunately, as time flies, everything has changed.
My father is no longer here, and my mother is half-remarried. How is my aunt now?
The second brother has already married, sister Jingyao is also married, and sister Zhiyao has reached the young age of leaving the court.
It used to be a good family, but now it is deserted and only the mother is left. Fortunately, there is a sister Lian Niang who stays with the mother.
For myself, this is at least a happy thing.
Li Ye reacted from the memories, breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately quickened his pace and chased Mr. Liu and his wife.
