“Father, is there something you want to tell Mingzhu?”
“You’re going to meet your sister later,” Feng Xiaohan said directly.
“But the situation is a bit special; she can see you, but you can’t see her.”
“Ah?” Gu Zhu looked as if she had misheard.
For the first time, she found human language so difficult to understand.
“Father, are you sure you’re alright?”
“Should we call for the imperial physician?”
She suddenly felt that Qing’an and Wenshu’s guess was right; Father must have been cursed, and it was his mind that was cursed.
“I’m sure I’m fine; it’s just that the situation is a bit… surreal.” Feng Xiaohan could already guess Gu Zhu’s expression; she must be wondering if he’s gone mad.
“But she does exist.”
After saying that, Feng Xiaohan covered his face. Maybe it’s better not to explain.
Explaining is too difficult.
Gu Zhu was stunned for a moment.
“Then I’ll go freshen up first.” Her current disheveled appearance wasn’t suitable for meeting someone.
Feng Xiaohan nodded and left Mingzhu Courtyard.
Gu Zhu changed into a skirt, and Hiyu styled her hair into a bun and put a gold hairpin in it.
“Hiyu, I remember I brought back a cloud-patterned jade pendant and a box of gold ingots shaped into various forms.”
“Please get them for me.”
“Yes.”
After a while, Hiyu brought the items over.
Gu Zhu looked at herself in the mirror; everything was in order.
Taking the gifts, she went to the flower hall in Wangchuan Courtyard to wait.
Yu Yu had just woken up, her eyes still blurry.
“Fa… Father, shoes.”
Feng Xiaohan bent down to pick up her shoes and put them on.
“Your sister is here.”
Hearing that her sister was here, Yu Yu became a little more alert.
“Father, quickly take me to see my sister.”
Yu Yu was also very curious about this sister.
Feng Xiaohan took Yu Yu to the flower hall to meet Gu Mingzhu.
Arriving at the flower hall, they found that only the gifts remained on the table, but no one was there.
“Your Highness, there’s an urgent matter at the Commerce Guild; the eldest miss went to handle it first,” Wenshu explained.
“I understand.” Feng Xiaohan nodded in understanding.
“I’ll take my leave.” Wenshu bowed and left.
Yu Yu looked at Wenshu.
“Father, this brother looks a bit like our teacher.”
“Where does he look like him?” Feng Xiaohan casually asked.
“Um… Yu Yu can’t say exactly. Their faces don’t look alike; our teacher has a white beard, but this brother doesn’t.”
“But Yu Yu just feels that the brother looks a little like the teacher.” Yu Yu scratched her head in frustration.
“Never mind the resemblance. Your sister had something to attend to; these should be her gifts for you,” Feng Xiaohan pointed to the two boxes on the table.
“Wow.” Yu Yu exclaimed in amazement at the exquisite and luxurious boxes.
“Open them and take a look.” Feng Xiaohan didn’t know what was inside either.
Yu Yu stepped on a stool to open the gift boxes.
“Father, it’s a yellow moon!” Yu Yu took out a small gold ingot shaped like a moon.
“It’s gold.”
“Father, what is gold?” Yu Yu asked curiously.
“Can you eat it?”
Feng Xiaohan looked at his silly daughter.
No way, doesn’t she work every day to earn money? She doesn’t even recognize gold.
“You don’t know? Have you ever seen silver?” Feng Xiaohan asked in confusion.
“No, I haven’t.” Yu Yu shook her head.
Feng Xiaohan recalled the strings of numbers his daughter had shown him, realizing that she didn’t use silver; she used those numbers to buy things.
So, the little girl worked so hard, only to get a few numbers.
Is this so-called system a scam?
“Ahem, be careful not to be scammed,” Feng Xiaohan reminded her.
“Scammed? What?” Yu Yu looked at her father with a confused expression.
“Human traffickers.” Without evidence, Feng Xiaohan didn’t dare to say more.
He could only remind his naive daughter not to be sold.
“What’s a human trafficker?” Yu Yu asked curiously.
“They’re the kind of people who will sell you to a black brick kiln to work for them and earn money,” Feng Xiaohan hinted.
This little girl was quite smart; she should understand his hint and be more cautious.
“Will they give Yu Yu food?” Yu Yu was more concerned about this issue.
“Uh…” Feng Xiaohan looked at his silly daughter speechlessly.
No way, isn’t her focus wrong?
Her mind is only thinking about food.
“Forget it.” Feng Xiaohan covered his face.
Yu Yu looked at her father.
Adults are always so strange.
Better to look at the gifts her sister gave her.
Feng Xiaohan watched Yu Yu, frowning in thought.
She’s so naive; he’s truly afraid that one day she will be sold, and she will even help count the money for them.
It’s time to tell her about the untrustworthy nature of people.
“Yu’er.”
“What?” Yu Yu turned her head to look at her father.
“If someone suddenly wants to be friends with you, what would you do?” Feng Xiaohan asked.
“I’ll tell him my name is Feng Wuyu, and I’m happy to be friends with you.” Heeheehee, you must loudly say your name when making friends.
“Wouldn’t you suspect that they have other motives?” Feng Xiaohan tried to subtly tell this naive daughter that there are many bad people in the world.
“What motives?” Yu Yu scratched her little face.
“Think about it yourself.” Feng Xiaohan decided to let her think about it herself.
This way, she would remember it deeply and apply it to other situations.
“Hmm…” Yu Yu sat on the stool, frowning slightly, trying to think.
What motives…
Hmm…
Time passed minute by minute, and Feng Xiaohan’s expression changed from expectant to sighing.
He shouldn’t have expected his daughter to come up with anything complex.
“Father, I got it!” Yu Yu said excitedly to her father.
“What?” Feng Xiaohan looked at his daughter expectantly.
It seems that she just thought about it for a while, but she still has the ability to understand people’s hearts.
“He wants to share delicious food with Yu Yu!” Yu Yu said confidently to her father.
Feng Xiaohan covered his face with his hands; it was his fault for having expectations.
She’s only a little over two years old; it’s normal for her mind to be filled with food.
“Father, what’s wrong with you?” Yu Yu noticed that her father was acting strange.
It seems like Father is about to cry.
“I’m fine.” Feng Xiaohan adjusted his emotions.
“Remember, if someone is suddenly very enthusiastic about being friends with you, it’s very likely they have bad intentions and ulterior motives.”
“Just remember that. When you grow up a bit, I’ll tell you why.”
Yu Yu blinked her eyes.
“Remembered!”
Feng Xiaohan took her for a walk around the mansion; in fact, he had also forgotten many parts of the mansion.
Yu Yu happily touched things here and there, even picking up a few pretty leaves.
“Father, there are little fish in the lake!” Yu Yu leaned over to look at the fish.
“Don’t get so close to the edge. If you fall in, your father can’t save you,” Feng Xiaohan reminded his daughter, who was fascinated by the fish.
What’s so interesting about a few rotten fish?
“Alright.” Yu Yu retracted her little legs and then held her father’s hand, poking her head out to look again.
Heeheehee, holding Father’s hand means she won’t fall in.
Feng Xiaohan looked at his big, fat daughter, sighed, and patiently accompanied her to watch the boring fish.
“Father, let’s go!” Yu Yu had finished admiring the fish.
The father and daughter continued walking.
Feng Xiaohan felt that having a little girl to walk with was actually quite nice.
“Father! There’s a bug on my hand!” Yu Yu threw the bug on her hand onto Feng Xiaohan’s in fear.
Feng Xiaohan looked at the bug wriggling on his hand, feeling a bit disgusted.
A palm strike sent the bug to bug heaven.
Yu Yu was still jumping up and down, checking her body for more bugs.
“Father, are there any more bugs on me?” Yu Yu asked her father for help.
She felt that there was a bug crawling into her clothes.
Feng Xiaohan checked her for her.
“No more.”
Hearing her father say there were no more bugs, Yu Yu finally let out a sigh of relief.
