Shen Yuxuan immediately changed the topic. He pointed at the older sister and asked, “Is she Aunt Xiao?”
“No, that’s her maid Miao Han.” Xue Yan said.
“Woah, maids are so good-looking.” Shen Yuxuan did not expect this.
Miao Han was carrying a small tea tray with a used tea set on it. She was about to wash it when she saw Xue Yan and the others. She quickly put down the small tea tray and came over to welcome them. When she heard that Shen Yuxuan was Doctor Shen’s son, the already enthusiastic Miao Han became even more enthusiastic. She even hurried back to the small room to report to the Empress.
Shao Youyue was also very happy with the news.
After Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Shen Yuxuan entered, they removed their cloaks by the charcoal brazier and placed them aside. Then, they listened to Shao Youyue and sat on the brick bed.
Jiang Yue climbed up first.
Xue Yan and Shen Yuxuan cupped their hands and bowed before they went up as well. They sat opposite Shao Youyue with Jiang Yue, but Jiang Yue sat at the innermost side.
Zi Cui and the others quickly handed over the small hand warmers and gave them one each.
The room was warm to begin with, and now that they had the small hand warmers with charcoal in it, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Shen Yuxuan naturally didn’t feel cold anymore.
Coincidentally, there was also the bird’s nest drink being stewed on the stove. Shao Youvue quickly gave a bowl to each of the three children.
The three children ate obediently.
Shao Youyue was happy as she watched the children.
After sitting at Shao Youyue’s place for a while, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Shen Yuxuan left and returned to the front.
Shen Yuxuan wanted to see Xue Shi, and Yu Hongyan was planning to help with lunch, so she let Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Shen Yuxuan take care of Xue Shi.
After lunch, Jiang Yue and the others went to visit their grandfather, Xue Da. They stayed at their grandfather’s place for a while before returning to the warm brick bed at home.
They were also making tea. The room was warmer because of the tea on the small table in front of them.
In fact, only Xue Yan was brewing the tea at an unhurried pace. Jiang Yue and Shen Yuxuan were just sitting cross-legged and watching quietly.
Jiang Yue, Shen Yuxuan, and Xue Yan each sat on one side of the small square table. The other side was naturally the outermost side, so it was not easy to sit.
After making the tea, Shen Yuxuan moved the chessboard and the black and white chess pieces from Xue Yan’s room over to play chess with Xue Yan.
This chess piece was left behind by Shao Shuting back then. Usually, it was just placed there for decoration.
Jiang Yue was not interested in these things. After sitting on the brick bed for so long, she wanted to get up and walk. Therefore, she got down from the brick bed, put on her sheepskin boots, and went to Li Hehua’s room.
Li Hehua was sitting on the brick bed doing needlework and sewing socks for her. The socks she used to have were not very warm, so she wanted to sew two pairs of warmer ones for Jiang Yue. Yu Hongyan was also there, carrying Xue Shi beside her.
“Ah, Jiang Yue.” When Li Hehua saw her, she was immediately attracted to her again. She quickly bent down and wanted to carry her to the brick bed.
Li Hehua was almost five months pregnant and her stomach was bulging. Jiang
Yue was afraid that something would happen to Li Hehua. In order to make Li Hehua happy, she did not mention that she had just come down from the brick bed. She obediently took off her sheepskin boots and went up the brick bed again. She sat obediently beside Li Hehua. Li Hehua even covered her short legs with a thick blanket, afraid that she would catch a cold.
“Jiang Yue,” Li Hehua looked at Jiang Yue like a loving mother and said softly,
“We’re going to kill a pig tomorrow.. Do you know that?”
