It was one thing to raise rabbits, but to raise snakes in the house?!

Was he complaining that his life was too hard?

“Sister Yangyang, do you want to take a look?” Xiao Yuanyou asked.

Chi Yang shook her head repeatedly to indicate that she didn’t want to.

…

When the little palace maid came to deliver the letter to Xiao Yuanyou, she was surprised to find Xiao Yuanqi there. Although the little palace maid did not know what Miss Chi Yao meant and why she wanted to write letters to the three princes, she had already received the reward money and met the two princes on her first trip, which saved a lot of time.

“Your Highness, this is what Miss Chi ordered me to give to you.”

After delivering the letter to the Second Prince, the little palace maid turned around and handed the letter to the Third Prince, Xiao Yuanqi.

After the little palace maid left, Xiao Yuanyou looked up at Chi Yang and opened the envelope without hesitation.

“Today at quarter to eight— cough cough… I hope to meet you in the royal garden. Cousin Ah-Yao.” Xiao Yuanyou read out loud, not treating Chi Yang as an outsider at all.

After he finished reading, Xiao Yuanqi walked over with the letter that was given to him and stuffed the envelope into Chi Yang’s hands.

“I can’t read, read it to me.”

Chi Yang did not stand. She reached out to take the envelope and opened it. A moment later, she stuffed the letter into Xiao Yuanyou’s hands.

“I can’t read either…” Chi Yang’s voice grew softer as she spoke.

The characters were so different from simplified Chinese that she could not understand them…

Xiao Yuanyou was not angry. He opened the letter with a smile and read it out loud for the two of them. “Today at a quarter to eight— Cough cough… I hope to meet you in the royal garden. Cousin Ah Yao.”

Upon hearing the contents of the two letters, Chi Yang called him Master Time Management.

Xiao Yuanyou raised his head and looked at Chi Yang. “Are we going?”

“Let’s go! Why not? Why don’t we go together?” Chi Yang was very excited.

“Is it something fun? Qi’er also wants to go!”

Thus, the three of them hit it off and went to the imperial garden to wait, thinking that they might be able to see the First Prince.

…

The north wind blew, and Chi Yang couldn’t help but shrink her head back. But she was lucky enough to see the Eldest Prince and Chi Yao.

“Cousin… You must be very busy since you haven’t come to see me for so long. Have you ever thought about me?” Chi Yao said to Xiao Yuancheng.

Xiao Yuancheng rubbed Chi Yao’s head and said lovingly, “How could I not, Miss Ah Yao? It’s just that I’ve been a little busy recently.”

“If only I could stay by Cousin’s side and help you. It’s a pity that Mother doesn’t want me to go out recently… Mother only liked… No, Mother likes me very much too.”

Hearing Chi Yao’s hesitation and hesitation, it seemed that Chi Yao’s life in the Chi family was not easy either.

Just like how he was in the palace.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuancheng looked at Chi Yao with heartache.

“Ah Yao, you don’t have to be like this. My heart will ache for you.”

“Cousin…” Chi Yao snuggled into Xiao Yuancheng’s arms shyly.

Chi Yang couldn’t hear what the other two were saying.

She could only hear the sound of coughing.

Chi Yang looked at the source of the voice, Xiao Yuanyou, with dissatisfaction.

Xiao Yuanyou smiled apologetically and coughed again. “I’m sorry, cousin. The weather is a little cold, and my throat is a little itchy…”

After saying that, there was another series of coughs, which alerted the two people who were snuggling together not far away.

Xiao Yuancheng was very alert.

“Who’s there!”

Chi Yang looked at Xiao Yuanyou in shock and asked softly, “What should we do now?”

Xiao Yuanyou calmly glanced at Chi Yang, then stood up and left.

Chi Yang was dumbfounded as she watched Xiao Yuanyou get up from the wooden wheelchair and walk towards Chi Yao and Xiao Yuancheng.

He could walk!

Xiao Yuanqi watched his Second Brother leave and followed him out.

“Cousin Ah Yao, long time no see,” Xiao Yuanyou greeted Chi Yao with a smile.

Chi Yao looked at Xiao Yuanyou, Xiao Yuanqi, and Chi Yang, who was slowly emerging from behind the rockery, in shock.

Chi Yao was speechless.
