Chapter 28

Seeing them coming out, Ye You hurriedly came up to inquire . Hua Yueling told all she knew to him and Ping’er .

“What? A foreign object?” Ye You was taken aback .

“Yes, Ye You, do you know who has the inner energy of more than 30 years of practicing? Surely it has to be of over 30 years!” Hua Yueling asked in a frown .

Thinking for a while, Ye You replied, “There are indeed some masters in all corners of the country . While in the capital city, I have never heard one . The Third Prince’s inner energy is up to 30 years, but I’m not sure whether it is more than 30 years . ” Ye You hesitated as well . Looking at Hua Xiaolong, he was very sorry for his dereliction of duty to protect his royal highness from sufferings .

“Alas, I hope my father will know . Well, let’s go to the ‘Qingyan Tower to eat something and then go to the Ministry of Penalty . ” Hua Yueling wasn’t anxious about that and just let it go . As long as her own business was settled, she could bring Xiaolong to look for the real master .

“Sister, will I die?” Hua Xiaolong revealed a bit of fear on his face .

“Well, of course not . It just takes some time for me to find a real master . As long as the foreign object inside your body is taken out, you will grow up healthily then . ” Hua Yueling held his hand and smiled at him tenderly .

“OK . ” Hua Xiaolong firmly believed Hua Yueling .

The carriage was moving through the street slowly and soon it reached the East Street . The wooden signboard at the end of the street with three characters on it was swaying with the wind, which attracted numerous folks . This building was Qingyan Tower . It was still earlier and it was time for people to have their breakfast, so the whole tower was filled with smoke and smell of food and it was noisy with the waiters’ clamor .

Among the noise, there came a clear sound of a woman, “Ah Lin, three trays of Crystal Dumplings for table NO . 2!” The sound revealed that she must be the owner .

When the carriage stopped, Hua Xiaolong took off first well-behaved and then helped Hua Yueling out of the carriage .

“Ping’er, don’t scare Xiaolong and he is still a kid . ” Hua Yueling scolded Ping’er and then smiled at innocent Hua Xiaolong, “Ease up, don’t be afraid! Come on, let’s go inside . ”

Ping’er curled her lips, for such a little beggar had drawn the attention of her lady, which was so repugnant!

The minute Hua Yueling entered the wide door, she found the noise calmed down gradually . Everyone was looking at Hua Yueling as if she was a monster, while Hua Yueling, at that moment, was holding Hua Xiaolong’s hand .

“Sister, why are they looking at us like that?” Hua Xiaolong was scared and hid behind Hua Yueling .

“Miss Hua?” A women poked her head out of the back of the wooden cabinet and was shocked to see Hua Yueling here .

Hua Yueling shouted to the people who stopped to eat, “Sorry to disturb you . Although I’m well known, but I also have two eyes and one mouth . I hope I did not disturb you . ” And then she smiled brightly and talked to the landlady, “Madam, we’re here for breakfast, too . ”

Hua Yueling looked at this able woman carefully, who was around 30 years old, mature enough . She kept her skin very well and there were almost no wrinkles . Her bright eyes and heroic temperament showed that she should be a very straightforward woman .

“OK, no problem . Go upstairs, please . ” The landlady smiled and took them upstairs in person . People immediately whispered about this, and Hua Yueling shook her head .

“Madam, didn’t my father come today?” Hua Yueling asked as soon as she sat down . They sat by the window on the second floor where you might obtain a perfect view of the streets and pedestrians outside .

The landlady’s face blushed suddenly and said embarrassingly, “Miss Hua, the Lord will come between 7 to 9 in the morning . What can I do for you? My treat today, just feel free . ” That meant she would treat us to breakfast .

“Wow, really? I want some crystal dumplings . The lord said it was great!” Ping’er was edacious .

“I . . . I want bean buns . I just saw it in the downstairs . It smells so good!” Hua Xiaolong said hurriedly .

The landlady smiled kindly and said, “Ok, no problems! Instant service . And a pot of Longjing tea and some special snacks . Then you can take your time . ” Glancing at Hua Yueling, the landlady went down the stairs embarrassingly .

“My lady, it is her . What do you think of her?” Ping’er whispered to Hua Yueling .

“What do I think? It’s none of my business . It all depends on what my dad thinks . ” Hua Yueling felt funny .

“My lady, we’re not waiting for the Lord to come, are we?” Ping’er said in a sudden alarm .

“Why not? It’s almost the time now . ” Hua Yueling smiled kindly when she saw Hua Xiaolong look around excitedly . But Ye You frowned when he stared at Hua Xiaolong .

“Ye You, don’t be so cold . Let’s enjoy the food together and have a chat . ” looking at Ye You’s serious face, Hua Yueling stretched her hand to hit him with her fist, for they were seated around the square table .

Ye You looked at her small smiling face and the corner of his mouth twitched, then he said, “I wonder if the Lord has more than thirty years of inner energy . ”

“Er? That’s right! My father used to be a general . Maybe he has . Why didn’t I think of that? I’ll ask him later . ” Hua Yueling became delighted .

At this time, Yun Niang brought up the dessert and the waiter also brought the plate .

“Come on, enjoy its fresh taste . ” Yun Niang served them warmly .

“Madam, your name is Yun Niang? Do you come from the capital city? “Hua Yueling began to investigate this woman .

Yun Niang was shocked, then she said, “Yes, actually, my family name is Tan, my first name is Xiaoyun . Due to my growing age, everyone calls me Yun Niang . I’m a native resident of the capital city . ” Looking at Hua Yueling’s investigating eyes, Yun Niang smiled a little bit unnaturally .

“You look still young . By the way, are you alone? What about your husband and children? “Hua Yueling seemed to do the household surveys .

“Miss Hua, my boss’s bastard husband ran away with other women ten years ago . Fortunately, she has no children or she will suffer a lot . ” The waiter behind helped to tell the truth .

“Ah Bu, don’t talk nonsense to make Miss Hua laugh . ” Yun Niang hurriedly stopped him, then smiled again and said, “Let bygones be bygones, now I live well by myself . “

“How miserable!” Hua Xiaolong suddenly cast his sympathetic look to Yun Niang .

After a daze for a second, Yun Niang laughed and said, “Not miserable at all . My life now is much better than many people . Women have to rely not on men, but themselves . Ha ha, excuse for my personal life . Now enjoy yourself . I’m going down to serve the other customers . ” Said Yun Niang, oddly looking at Hua Xiaolong . Then she smiled and walked away with her head shaking .

With a smile, Hua Yueling watched her gradually disappearing back in admiration . Her few words were enough to show that she was quite independent, which was rare in ancient times .

“Look! My Lady, the Lord is coming!” Ping’er was looking out of the window . She saw Hua Tieying and Ah tong coming here slowly with a smile .

As soon as Hua Yueling heard this, she stuck her head out and saw Yun Niang rushing out and exchanged a few words with Hua Tieying who listened attentively with a growing serious face . Soon he hurriedly turned around and ran away .

Hua Yueling was dumbfounded . It turned out that this old man had an obvious crush on Yun Niang .
