Time Travel: The Noble Family-Chapter 1406 - 577: Divorce (Part 2)

An Zhichen said this, also hoping that the issue with Madam Lin wouldn’t happen again.

Yueyao nodded and said, "I understand." After this incident, if Tingzheng doesn’t learn the lesson, then he really is beyond help.

Lian Mansion wasn’t as chaotic as Ah Si described; the Outer Courtyard was well-managed by him, and no matter how chaotic the Inner Courtyard was, it wouldn’t get too bad.

Tingzheng had good physical resilience; after taking medicine and sleeping, he had mostly recovered when he awoke. Seeing the person sitting by his bedside, his eyes turned red: "Sis." He remembered when he was sick as a child, his sister would always care for him like this. Seeing such a scene again now felt like a dream.

Yueyao gently said, "You haven’t eaten anything for a whole day and night, eat this bowl of congee. I’ve arranged for three more days leave from the military camp, during these days, don’t overthink, rest well, and heal your body."

Tingzheng took the sweet white porcelain bowl from Yueyao’s hand; the congee was warm, just right for eating. As he ate the congee, the familiar taste made his heart ache, and he couldn’t help but shed tears.

Seeing Tingzheng in this state, Yueyao’s anger and dissatisfaction dissipated. She softly said, "I know you feel bad, but you still have to look forward. Let bygones be bygones, and live well in the future."

Tingzheng choked and said, "Sis, I’m sorry, I let you down." He had previously said he would be a good brother to his sister, but in the end, he not only failed to be filial, but also caused her so much trouble.

Yueyao shook her head and said with a smile, "Don’t talk nonsense. Just get better, live well, and don’t make me worry. That will make me content."

Tingzheng nodded and said, "I will."

Yueyao only hoped Tingzheng truly learned his lesson this time. Her expectations for him were not high; as long as he wouldn’t cause trouble and could live steadily, it would be fine. All this turmoil was exhausting for Tingzheng, for her, and for those around them.

Just as they were speaking, a maid outside said, "Eldest Miss, please wait a moment, I will inform the Old Master first."

Unfortunately, Wanting couldn’t wait for the message to be passed on, she rushed in. Crying, Wanting looked at Yueyao and said, "Aunt, I beg you to let father bring my mother back, please? Aunt, I’m begging you." Wanting believed that as long as Yueyao agreed, her father would definitely listen, and her mother would return.

Tingzheng was furious and was about to scold but was stopped by Yueyao. Yueyao asked someone to bring in Wanting’s Wet Nurse, saying, "Take good care of the girl, don’t let anything happen to her!"

The Wet Nurse, trembling, agreed, then used all her strength to carry Wanting away.

Tingzheng was full of guilt: "Sis, I’m sorry, I didn’t know the child would act like this." It seemed he didn’t know what to say except apologize.

Yueyao wouldn’t hold a grudge against Wanting: "Madam Lin left, the child is scared too; pay more attention to her daily and remind those around her. Yes, this child doesn’t look well, find someone to adjust her health. Additionally, Wanting is seven now, you should find a good nurturing nanny for her. With a nurturing nanny, the child will act more orderly, and when she grows up, she won’t suffer losses. Yueyao couldn’t understand Madam Lin’s thinking; raising a child like this may not be a problem at home as a daughter, but acting so disorderly could be problematic in her husband’s house later.

Tingzheng nodded slightly: "I will pay attention."

When Yueyao returned, she looked much lighter.

Xiang Wei couldn’t help but remind Yueyao, saying, "Tingzheng was obedient before he got married, but since he married Madam Lin, he changed completely. If he marries again in the future, you must control it well, and absolutely refuse to agree unless you’re satisfied." In fact, Xiang Wei was a bit scared too, encountering such an unreasonable woman was truly unlucky.

Yueyao shook her head and said, "Let’s talk about this later!" Her son was gone, and with the divorce from his wife, Tingzheng wasn’t thinking about remarrying now. Of course, Yueyao also felt it was not appropriate to discuss remarriage now, at least wait a year or so.

Xiang Wei murmured, "Who knows if Madam Lin will change her mind; if she causes trouble again, it will be a headache for you."

Yueyao said solemnly, "As long as Tingzheng stays steady, Madam Lin is not a threat. If he doesn’t steady himself, he will be the one suffering, not me."

Xiang Wei pursed her lips but said no more.
