The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler

483 Little Fatty Speaks

It rained for two days. The third day was sunny and the sky was clear. They packed up Xixia Garden and prepared to leave. The few little Gu Elders did not need to take risks. They only needed to send the Gu Masters to the Gu Hall. Then, they would use the excuse of looking for poisonous insects for the little Gu Elders to refine Gu and enter the Gu Mountain.

“Grandma, can I go?” Yu Wan asked before leaving.

The old man said, “You can go to the Gu Hall, but you can’t enter the Gu Mountain.”

“Why?”

“Your Gu King will affect the snow toad, so it’s best if you’re not present.”

Yu Wan nodded. “Then I’ll send them over and come back.”

Although the snow toad woke up every three years, no one could tell when it would wake up. Even if it woke up, it was not something that could be done in a short time.

Yu Wan handed over the packed bag. “This is half a month’s dry food. One for each of you. I’ve already prepared it. There are three water bags. After entering the Gu Mountain, you have to find a water source as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry.” Qing Yan took the bag and distributed it to Jiang Hai, Yue Gou, and Ah Wei. He also kept one for himself.

Only this girl was worried for nothing. How could they starve to death in the mountains and forests? However, since Yu Wan had personally prepared it, they would cherish it.

The people from the Queen Manor also wanted to enter the mountain. The chances of them meeting were very high. For this reason, Yu Wan specially asked Old Cui to change Jiang Hai, Qing Yan, and Yue Gou’s appearance. As for Ah Wei, although Gu Elder Meng had seen him once in the Gu Hall, he did not know that he was with them.

Yu Wan’s guess was right. Just as she sent Ah Wei and the others into the Gu Mountain, the carriage from the Queen Manor arrived at the Gu Hall. She carried her sons into the carriage and lifted a crack in the curtain to look out.

Gu Elder Meng also noticed the carriage that suddenly appeared in the Gu Hall. He called over an attendant from the Gu Hall and asked what had happened.

The attendant said, “Little Gu Elder wants to refine Gu, so he asked the Gu Masters to catch worms for them.”

The poisonous insects in Gu Mountain were naturally much better than the ones outside. Gu Elder Meng did not suspect anything and led the three Gu Masters accompanying him into Gu Mountain.

Yu Wan brought her sons back to the Helian Manor. Halfway there, the three little black eggs were attracted by the sound of someone hawking candied hawthorn. The three little heads squeezed into the window and drooled.

Yu Wan asked the coachman to stop the carriage by the roadside. She rubbed the heads of the three little fellows and said, “I’ll go down and buy candied hawthorn. Be good in the carriage and don’t run around, understand?”

The three of them nodded adorably.

Yu Wan alighted from the carriage and walked to the shop selling candied hawthorn. She asked for three sticks of candied hawthorn, rock sugar dates, rock sugar oranges, and rock sugar grapes each. She saw that this shop sold small glutinous rice balls. The white balls were wrapped in a layer of yellow fine sugar sweet powder. She tasted it and found that the taste was somewhat similar to the donkey roll she had eaten in her previous life, but there was no red bean paste.

Yu Wan bought five boxes. One for her grandmother, one for her uncle, one for the three little fellows, one for Yan Jiuchao, and the last box was for Fu Ling and Zi Su. Seeing that she had bought a lot, the shopkeeper gave her another box.

Yu Wan walked towards the carriage with bags of food, but she did not expect to meet an uninvited guest.

“Yo, I was wondering who it was. So it’s you, the country bumpkin!” A young girl in pink walked arrogantly towards Yu Wan. Who else could it be but the incomparably noble Little Commandery Princess?

The Little Commandery Princess came to check on the progress of the rouge again today. This shop selling candied hawthorn and snacks happened to be opposite the rouge shop, and they unexpectedly met. There were twenty-four hours in a day, so it was fate that they met. As for whether it was a blessing or an ill fate, no one knew.

Today, the two of them were wearing women’s clothes. The Little Commandery Princess had long known that she was the little wife of a small county who had come to search for her relatives, so she was not surprised. Yu Wan could not be bothered with her. But in her eyes, it was because Yu Wan did not recognize her.

She smiled smugly. “What? You don’t recognize me when I change back into women’s clothes?”

Yu Wan said bluntly, “With your lousy disguise, I’m afraid you can fool no one other than yourself.”

“You!” The Little Commandery Princess choked with anger. “How dare you talk to me like that? Do you know who I am?”

Yu Wan smiled faintly. “Do you know who I am?”

The Little Commandery Princess snorted. “Of course I know! Aren’t you that village woman from the countryside? Do you really think you’re a member of the Helian family after entering the Helian family? A pheasant can’t become a phoenix! You still think you’re a great Buddha! Don’t make a fool of yourself again!”

When Yu Wan heard her words, she was not angry. Instead, she smiled. “Princess, are you talking about me or yourself? It’s true that I came from the countryside to acknowledge my family. At least, I acknowledge my family. Why did I hear that you’re not the biological child of the Queen and the Prince Consort? If I’m a pheasant, then what about you?”

“Who do you think you are! What right do you have to compare to me! My mother is the Princess of Nanzhao!” What the Little Commandery Princess minded the most in her life was others saying that she was not her parents’ biological daughter, although her parents already doted on her enough. In a fit of anger, she spoke without thinking and actually mentioned the Queen.

If it were anyone else, they might be afraid, but Yu Wan did not even lift her eyelids. “Is that so? The Princess of Nanzhao raised such a bullying daughter?”

The Little Commandery Princess held her breath. “Who bullied others?”

Yu Wan looked into her eyes indifferently. “Isn’t that so? I have no enmity with the Commandery Princess. But when you saw me, you would either scold me or slander me, and you would look like you wanted to cut me into pieces to vent your hatred. May I ask, if this isn’t bullying others, what is?”

The Little Commandery Princess was speechless by Yu Wan. Many commoners had gradually gathered around. If she continued to hold on to her, she would be charged with bullying others. Damn it! She was the one who provoked her first! Her husband had broken her Wushan Lingzhi and she had snatched her Red Lingzhi. She just wanted to teach her a lesson, but she was made to look like she’s unreasonable.

How could this woman be so eloquent!

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.” Yu Wan nodded politely and got into the carriage with her things.

The Little Commandery Princess was so angry that she stopped going to the rouge shop and got into the carriage back to the manor with a dark expression.

This small episode did not affect Yu Wan’s mood. Yu Wan brought the three little fellows back to the manor. The three little fellows carried the candied hawthorn and glutinous rice ball to look for the Old Madam. Yu Wan sent the rest to Helian Beiming, kept one for her husband, and sent some to Zi Su and Fu Ling. She did not eat the sweet food because she did not like it.

Yan Jiuchao had just drunk the medicine and was sleeping. Yu Wan took his pulse. His pulse was normal. She kissed his forehead, tucked him in, and went to the courtyard to milk the sheep.

Halfway through, the maidservant beside the Old Madam suddenly rushed out. “Young Madam!”

“What’s wrong?” Yu Wan turned around to look at her.

She said excitedly, “The… the… the little masters spoke!”

Yu Wan was stunned. “Did you hear wrongly?”

The maidservant shook her head like a rattle-drum. “No, no! I really heard it! Old Madam heard it too! If you don’t believe me, go ask!”

The fact that the three little fellows didn’t know how to speak wasn’t a secret in the manor. The servants had privately said that the little masters were so cute, but why didn’t they speak? Could it be that they’re mute? Therefore, when she suddenly heard someone among them speak, the maidservant was stunned. Her first reaction was to run over and tell their mother.

This was a big deal!

Yu Wan could not even care less about the bowl of goat milk. She placed the bowl on a stool at the side and stood up to go to the Old Madam’s room with the maidservant.

The Old Madam was still immersed in the joy of her great-grandchildren speaking. She hugged them and laughed until her eyes were gone. The moment Yu Wan entered the room, she bragged, “I’m still the best. They’ve only followed me for a few days, but they already know how to speak!”

Yu Wan was a little excited when she saw that the Old Madam did not look fake. “Who spoke?”

“It’s the Third Little Master!” The maidservant said.

It was actually Xiaobao? Xiaobao had the most introverted personality. Yu Wan once thought that the first to speak would be Dabao or Er’bao, but she never expected it to be Xiaobao.

“What did Xiaobao say?” Yu Wan squatted down in front of Xiaobao.

“Milky,” Xiaobao said.

He wanted to drink milk. In the past, goat milk would be ready when they woke up early. Today, they didn’t have time to drink it as they were rushing to the Gu Hall. Unexpectedly, he actually spoke because he was craving milk. This was really a pleasant surprise.

Yu Wan touched Xiaobao’s face. “Say Mom.”

“Milky.” Xiaobao wanted to drink milk.

Yu Wan looked at him gently and said, “Call me Mom. If you do, I’ll cook it for you.”

Xiaobao thought for a while. “Mom.”

“Aye!” Yu Wan was so excited that she hugged her son!

Xiaobao opened his mouth and said the first word, then there was a second word. Soon, there was a third and fourth word. By the time Yan Jiuchao woke up from the medicine, Xiaobao had not only called his mother, but also Big Grandpa and Great Grandma.

In her joy, the Old Madam rewarded everyone in the East Manor with ten taels of silver! When Yan Jiuchao heard this, he hurriedly went to the Old Madam’s room.

“This kid really know how to speak?” Yan Jiuchao did not believe him.

“It’s true,” Yu Wan said. Dabao and Er’bao were still unwilling to speak, but Xiaobao really did speak. He had called her that many times just now. The old madam was so happy that she almost fainted. Even Helian Beiming smiled.

Yan Jiuchao picked up the little brat. “Call me Dad.”

Xiaobao did not say anything.

Yu Wan said warmly, “Call me Mom.”

Xiaobao: “Mom.”

The Old Madam smiled and said, “Call me Great-Grandma!”

Xiaobao: “Great-grandma.”

Yan Jiuchao said again, “Call me Dad.”

Xiaobao just wouldn’t say anything.

“You have to teach him. Don’t be fierce. Teach him well,” Yu Wan said.

Yan Jiuchao slowed down his speech and said clearly, “Dad—”

Xiaobao opened his mouth. “Aye!”

Yan Jiuchao: “…”
