By noon, there was finally movement at the courtyard gate.
The gate was pushed open, and when Shu Yu looked up, she saw Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi walking in together.
"You guys are back together?" Wasn't Meng Yunzheng supposed to be out of the city with the Fifth Prince? And Zhao Xi was going shopping.
Meng Yunzheng smiled, "We ran into each other at the entrance of the alley. Have you had lunch?"
Shu Yu waved her hand and lowered her voice to say, "Be careful, Uncle Meng..."
Before she could finish her sentence, a loud and strong voice came from behind, "Meng Yunzheng!"
Shu Yu turned her head to see that Meng Pei was awake.
Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were also stunned and stopped in their tracks.
Shu Yu said, "I was just about to tell you that Uncle Meng and Uncle Zhao came over."
As she spoke, Old Zhao figure also emerged from another room.
Compared to Meng Pei, who appeared completely awake, Old Zhao looked more tired and rubbed his eyes with dissatisfaction, saying, "Meng Pei, why are you shouting again? I was sleeping soundly and you woke me up."
Meng Pei completely ignored him. When Meng Yunzheng walked into the main hall, he immediately started criticizing him.
"Ah Yun, you've grown wings and your ambitions are getting bigger and bigger. You don't even put your old man in your eyes. Such a big matter, and you didn't even inform me before taking action. You got yourself into danger, and it's hard enough to find a daughter-in-law, yet you also put that girl in danger. Do you think you've forgotten your surname, huh?"
Meng Yunzheng remained silent, letting him scold him.
On the side, Old Zhao and Zhao Xi, master and disciple, watched with relish after meeting each other once. They didn't exchange pleasantries as they had been frequently communicating due to Zhao Xi's marriage, so there wasn't much to talk about.
For two grown men, there was no need for any excessive display of affection.
It was Meng Yunzheng and Meng Pei who seemed to avoid each other more and more during crucial moments, resulting in a long period of no contact between them.
As a result, when Meng Pei found Meng Yunzheng, he scolded him without stopping.
While Shu Yu was contemplating whether she should intervene or not, Zhao Xi timely handed her a cup of tea, "Have some tea, just listen to them."
Shu Yu sat back silently, taking a sip of tea.
Then she received a meaningful look from Meng Yunzheng. She silently smiled at him and raised her teacup to block her face, also blocking his line of sight.
It wasn't that she didn't want to intervene; she just didn't know how to.
Seeing this, Meng Yunzheng could only sigh inwardly. When Meng Pei finally finished scolding, Meng Yunzheng finally spoke up, "Father, scolding me like this in front of Shu Yu, I'll lose face. If she looks down on me, You won't have a daughter-in-law anymore."
Meng Pei was taken aback for a moment, but in the next instant, his expression changed dramatically. He patted Meng Yunzheng's shoulder affectionately and changed the subject, saying in a heartfelt manner, "Of course, you did this very well. Not only did you succeed, but you also avenged your mother. It shows that you are brave, meticulous in your plans, and mature in your thinking. I, your father, understand you very well."
