Chapter 308: Finally Grown Up

Looking at her mother now, Lu Yaoyao felt very at ease.

Mothers today are no longer lambs to be slaughtered.

Lu Xiao smiled and grabbed Yu Tan's hand, his eyes deep and thoughtful. "My A Tan has finally grown up."

He was pleased that his woman knew how to protect herself.

Yu Tan was still angry and glared at him fiercely, "Stop it! I'm still angry!"

He picked up Lu Yaoyao and left.

That jerk is always causing her trouble!
Lu Yaoyao smiled and made a face at Lu Xiao, "Daddy deserves it!"

Lu Xiao was speechless; this mother and daughter really didn't like him!

three days later.

Lu Yaoyao's carriage slowly left the city.

Baihu and Zhuifeng sat in front of the carriage, while Zhuiyu played with the Nine Linked Rings beside them.

The white tiger stared wide-eyed at the scenery before it and twitched its ears.

"Chasing the Wind, is this the world you live in? How boring."

They all knew that the white tiger could talk, and they often chatted with it.

They found it particularly interesting to talk to a tiger, especially since this white tiger was very knowledgeable and could even instruct them in martial arts.

These days, their kung fu has improved by leaps and bounds.

“I’ve told you before that compared to your world, our world is indeed boring,” Zhuiyu interjected from the side.

He was playing with the Nine Linked Rings, and thinking about the world the White Tiger had described, he was filled with longing.

That's a world for the strong.

Zhui Feng chuckled and patted the white tiger's head. "We're destined not to go to your world. Although it's boring here, it has its own unique charm, doesn't it?"

Baihu nodded his little head. "Indeed, if Yaoyao weren't here, I would rather stay asleep forever than wake up. As long as Yaoyao is here, I will stay even if I'm bored."

He glanced back at Lu Yaoyao in the carriage. Wherever she was, he would never be bored.

Inside the carriage, Si Liuyan was stuffing fruit into Lu Yaoyao's mouth.

Lu Yaoyao's mouth was covered in juice.

Si Liu wiped the juice from the corner of her mouth with a disgusted smile, not forgetting to make fun of her.

Seeing how the two children got along, Si Hanlin became even more determined to arrange a marriage between them.

"I say, Your Highness, you're coming with us when we go home. Are you worried about your daughter?" Si Hanlin placed a black piece.

Lu Xiao placed a white piece to block his path, "Isn't that obvious? If I trusted you, I wouldn't be following you."

He follows his daughter everywhere, so that he won't be sold off by the father and son and then have to pay them for it.

His little girl is still too naive.

The naive Lu Yaoyao is now smiling like a silly little girl.

Si Hanlin was speechless. "You're so irritating! You have such a bad temper! Only your sister-in-law can put up with you!"

Lu Xiao snorted, "None of your business?"

Of course his wife can put up with him.

They laughed and joked all the way, and ten days later they arrived at the Si family's place.

Sicheng.

Sicheng is the main base of the Si family, where the Si family is the ultimate authority.

Lu Yaoyao poked her head out of the carriage and looked at the bustling city of Sicheng, thinking that this place was even more prosperous than the capital.

The people in the city wore happy smiles on their faces, and many students from Sijia Academy were walking on the streets.

[The Si Family Academy in this Si City should be quite good! It's perfect for Er Ya and the others to study here.]

They'll be my real help when they return after completing their studies!

Er Ya, who was boiling water, was taken aback. They had never considered going to the academy to study. They were here to serve the little princess; how could they go to the academy to study?
Erniu, Zhuzi, and Gou Dan also heard this and were told to go to the Si Family Academy to study.
They have learned a lot during their stay at the Prince's Palace and have also heard of the Si Family Academy.

It is said that royal children from various countries also study at the Sijia Academy, where the rules for admission are extremely strict.

Can they really get into Sijia Academy?
Lu Xiao also heard her daughter's words, "Patriarch Si, will you grant my daughter's request?"

They had originally planned to send the children to the Si Family Academy, and now they had a good reason to do so.

Si Hanlin raised an eyebrow. "You really don't miss out on any benefits, do you? Even if you hadn't said anything, I would have liked to send a few of my children to the academy to study, so they could keep Liu Yan company."

"As for the little princess, are you really not planning to let her stay at the academy?"

It would be best if the little princess could stay at the academy.

"No!" Lu Yaoyao exclaimed.

I don't want to study! Seeing those words makes me sleepy. I don't want to learn!

Lu Xiao was taken aback, then smiled and hugged his daughter. "Alright! We won't go! My daughter can do whatever she wants."

His daughter already knows many characters and recognizes all kinds of writing systems, so what else does she need to learn?
"Okay, okay, I won't learn." Lu Yaoyao was happy.

Yu Tan was making clothes for Lu Yaoyao when she heard their conversation and looked up. "Your Highness, you just keep spoiling her!"

"How can I not spoil my daughter?" Lu Xiao patted her hair.

Si Hanlin smiled and shook his head; the atmosphere in the Qin family was quite pleasant.

He also missed his wife.

The Si family's estate is located in the very center of Sicheng.

"Master, you're finally back."

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw the Si family's butler come out to greet me.

Si Hanlin had already sent word back that they would arrive today.

"This is the King of Qin, the Queen Consort of Qin, and this is the little princess. Is the courtyard you asked me to tidy up ready?"

Si Hanlin held his son's hand.

Butler Xu Bo smiled and bowed, "Greetings, Your Highness, Your Highness, and Your Highness the Princess."

"Rest assured, Master, the best courtyard has been prepared. Please, honored guest!"

"Your Highness, let's go!" Si Hanlin personally led them into the Si family residence.

The second branch of the Si family.

"What? That little bastard has been found?" Si Chenglin knew that Si Hanlin had found the child when he heard that Si Hanlin had brought back a boy.

Didn't he throw away that bastard child?
Why was it still able to be found?
How could that woman not do her job properly? She can't even handle such a small task?

"Second Master, what should we do? If that bastard comes back, how can our child become the head of the family?"

Mrs. Lin became anxious.

She and Yu Shi gave birth at the same time. In order for her son to become the son of the head of the family, she had no choice but to throw away Yu Shi's child.

Unexpectedly, after several years, we still managed to find that bastard child.

Si Chenglin's face turned cold. "Hmph! So what if he's back? He's just a child who's only a few years old. If I wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as turning my hand. Our child is exceptionally talented. I don't believe the clan elders would choose a child with no knowledge to be the head of the family."

Over the years, he has tried every means to educate his son, hoping to make him outstanding and have the clan elders choose his son as the heir to the Si family.

If Si Hanlin has no more children, and Yu Shi is so injured that she can only have one child, then the next head of the family can only be chosen from his child.

Now that the child has been found, he'll just kill the person.

Lin thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense! Our children have always been outstanding, and Yu can no longer have children. As long as we kill that child, the next head of the family will be our child."

Lin lowered her eyes, concealing the jealousy within them.

She had her eye on Si Hanlin, but she never expected that he would marry a woman of unknown origin and reject her.

She had no choice but to marry a second wife, and she is still unwilling to accept it.
