Chapter 145 Su Yinyin's First Visit to the Palace
After returning from the porridge distribution site, Su Yinyin stayed in her room. In reality, she was inside the spatial dimension.
She and her baby were busy recording the jewelry and gold they brought back from the mountains!
Even the baby's tiny body couldn't stop him from carrying his share back and forth. He kept muttering, "Mommy, don't you think those people are stupid? The gold mine is already conspicuous enough, yet they dare to put all that gold and silver jewelry on the same mountain."
“Son, they’re not stupid, they’re just dumb. They’re just too dumb.” Su Yinyin’s hands were busy too.
She also moved her share into her own storeroom. She also thoughtfully prepared gifts for her relatives, especially Su Yue and Su Nian'an.
I picked out some jewelry that suited them.
"Mom, what should we do with that one?" the baby asked, pointing to another portion.
Su Yinyin and Bao Bao divided the gold and jewelry they obtained into three portions. She and Bao Bao each received one portion. They decided to use the remaining portion for the benefit of the people.
They calculated that this was a huge sum of money. If it were donated in Su Yinyin's name, all sorts of powerful figures would be watching her closely.
Furthermore, her public income is insufficient to match this wealth.
"After thinking about it, Mother decided to do this in the name of the Divine Physician Pavilion. As for the specifics of how to do it, Mother still needs to think about it."
Su Yinyin took out three cloth bags and filled them with some jewelry and gold.
After tidying up, the two sat on the sofa eating fruit. Su Yinyin's tone was as if she were chatting with a friend: "Baby, your father and I can't be together anymore. Will you resent me?"
After thinking for a moment, the baby answered the question seriously: "Mom, no, as long as you're happy."
"Your mother wants you to go to school and ask your father to arrange the best teacher for you."
"Go to school? Mom, I think I've learned enough!"
Su Yinyin patted her forehead, regretting that she hadn't let her baby look at the phone so much.
In addition to her personal space, Su Yinyin also has a mobile phone, a computer, and a tablet, all of which are connected to modern networks, allowing her to access all kinds of information at any time.
"Baby, you have to listen to the adults when it comes to going to school. I'll find some time to talk to your dad about it in a couple of days."
Before the baby could object, Su Yinyin asked again, "Are you in your spatial dimension or going outside?"
"Go out, I miss Xiaoxiao too. I'll prepare a gift for her." He patted the wooden box in his hand as he spoke.
Seeing this, Su Yinyin joked, "Science doesn't allow cousins to get married!"
The baby rolled her eyes. "Mom, I don't know what kind of nonsense you're thinking. I just see her as my own sister!" Sometimes the baby is exasperated!
"I'm just giving you a heads-up," Su Yinyin said, then picked up the baby and left the space.
After leaving the space, the baby carried the wooden box to the living room on the first floor, where he saw Xiaoxiao playing with building blocks alone.
“Xiaoxiao,” the baby called out.
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiaoxiao looked up, saw the baby, and happily exclaimed, "Brother, brother, you're back!"
Xiaoxiao's cries startled Bixia, who was busy in the kitchen, and the old lady, who was drinking tea in the tea room.
When the two came out and saw the baby, they both rushed forward to check on him, worried that the baby might be hurt.
Feeling cared for, the baby felt warm inside. The old lady pulled the baby to sit on the sofa, looked at him carefully, and only felt relieved after finding that everything was alright.
"Your mother is really something, sending such a young child out to gain experience."
The baby smiled and said, "Great-grandmother, it was I who insisted on going to experience this, it has nothing to do with Mom. Look, I brought you and Xiaoxiao a gift."
He then opened the wooden box, which contained some jewelry.
The baby gave a brief introduction to the old lady and Xiaoxiao. Standing upstairs, Su Yinyin witnessed this heartwarming scene and felt that all the hard work was worthwhile.
In Su Yinyin's study, Old One sat opposite her. She took three bags from her bosom and placed them in front of her.
"Have someone send the contents of this place to the auction houses of the Divine Physicians Pavilion in various countries, auction them off, and exchange them for gold."
The old man picked up the bag on the table and disappeared into the study.
The next morning, Su Yinyin was woken up by a knock on the door while she was still in bed.
Su Yinyin groggily opened the door, squinting her eyes a crack. Seeing it was Bixia, she grumbled, "Bixia, you've got some nerve! How dare you disturb my sleep!"
Upon hearing this, Bixia's head was buzzing. She really didn't want to disturb the princess, but it was almost time, and the princess still needed to go to the palace to meet the emperor.
Bixia gave a wink to the old woman and maid behind her. The maid turned around and tiptoed downstairs.
The three of them had already discussed it downstairs. If the princess was unhappy, one of them would immediately go downstairs and invite the duke's wife upstairs.
At this time, the Duchess was downstairs having breakfast with the old lady.
The old lady has now gotten used to her habit of sleeping in late. When she first arrived, she would call Bixia upstairs to wake her up for breakfast.
The old lady had gotten used to it by now. She knew the outcome as soon as she saw the maid come downstairs.
The old lady looked at her daughter-in-law with a kind expression and said, "This important task is entrusted to you, daughter-in-law. Make sure to dress Yinyin up carefully so that those people can't even reach her!"
The Duchess also felt it was the right thing to do and happily agreed. After Su Yinyin was granted the title of Princess, the Old Madam sent someone to instruct the Duchess to prepare six matrons and eight maids.
Now that Yinyin is a princess, she will be appearing on many occasions in the future. Therefore, she needs to maintain a certain air of authority. Although Yinyin likes freedom and doesn't like being served by too many people, there are some occasions where this is necessary.
When the Duchess entered the room, she saw Su Yinyin lying face down on the bed.
Looking around, she really loved this room.
No wonder the old lady has been here for so many days and hasn't returned to the Duke's mansion. If the mansion didn't still need her, she would have moved in with Yinyin immediately.
Looks like I need to step up my efforts and find a wife for my son soon. If the eldest isn't suitable, there's always the second. Judging by the time, the second son should be back soon.
The Duchess smiled, walked to the bedside and sat down, then gently shook Su Yinyin's shoulder.
"Yinyin, wake up. Today you are going to the palace to meet His Majesty."
Upon hearing that she was to enter the palace to meet the emperor, Su Yinyin suddenly snapped out of her daze. She rubbed her eyes and muttered, "Why didn't you wake me up sooner for something this important?"
The Duchess smiled and said, "I just wanted you to sleep a little longer." Then she directed the nannies and maids to dress and do Su Yinyin's hair.
Su Yinyin sat in front of the mirror, watching herself gradually become exquisite, gorgeous and noble!
After entering the palace, Su Yinyin went to the imperial study, where the emperor was reviewing memorials.
Su Yinyin bowed respectfully. The emperor sized her up. This woman was no ordinary person. No wonder the regent was so determined to marry her. He asked, "I have heard that you have been distributing porridge and doing good deeds among the people. Is this true?"
