Chapter 514: Chapter 514, Don’t Understand (18th Update)
Xie Zhinuan squatted down, accepted Xie Yi’s kiss, and then said, “I bought a lot of things for you all!”
“Wow…”
As soon as the gifts were placed on the table, Mu Rourou was the first to exclaim.
She looked up at Xie Zhinuan and asked, “Can we eat them?”
“Go ahead!” Xie Zhinuan said with a gentle and shallow smile.
Mu Rourou picked up a piece of cake, took a delicate bite, and murmured, “Mmm, so sweet!”
Seeing that Xie Yi had already helped himself, she took another piece and offered it to Qin Mao, “Just a little bite is fine!”
Qin Mao looked at Xie Zhinuan, “Aunt, may I eat it?”
“A little bite is fine!” Xie Zhinuan said with a gentle smile, ruffling his hair.
Children, after all, preferred something new and fresh, even if they were used to exotic delicacies.
Especially these little playthings.
Xie Zhinuan noticed that there were quite a few wooden blocks piled up in the corner, of all shapes and sizes.
She really hadn’t expected that Mu Rourou, playing with them, would be so childlike, completely forgetting that she was already sixteen and about to be married.

“I had someone clean up a side room upstairs to take all these little toys!”
“Great, great!”
Mu Rourou was very delighted.
Even a wooden block was something she had never played with before.
Xie Zhinuan smiled resignedly.
She let Mu Rourou have her way, instructing someone to go upstairs to clean out a side room.
Mu Rourou cheerfully began to organize her things to move upstairs.
She didn’t act like a young lady at all, and looked like a completely different person from the one Xie Zhinuan had first met.
The two old maids and two maids at the Mu Residence were simply dumbfounded. Was this freewheeling girl really the young lady of the Mu Residence? She must have been switched at some point.
After moving her things upstairs, Mu Rourou even specially invited Qin Mao to play together, and after a moment of hesitation, he nodded in agreement.
A hint of a smile colored his lips as he followed Mu Rourou to the upstairs side room.
Zhao Xiuya watched them, her eyes falling silently. She had decided to let Qin Mao stay and to return to Number One Manor with Qin Yu.
It was a perilous journey, and she didn’t feel at ease letting Qin Yu go back alone.
Xie Zhinuan was discussing with Aunt Chen and Dong Sheng about buying a residence that day.
“Those people must be guilty of reprehensible deeds and now they can’t make amends. When they heard the young lady was coming, they priced a splendid residence sky-high. If the young lady is reluctant to give up the silver, they’d gift the residence to her, but they want the young lady to speak well of them in front of the Prince of Han. Their intentions are insidious; you must be careful!” Aunt Chen said.
Xie Zhinuan nodded, “Now I’m really curious to know what they’ve done!”
“Qinglan, contact Qingzi for me, tell him to investigate. Let’s not meet for now, wait another two days!” Xie Zhinuan instructed one of the guards.
The guard hesitated for a moment, thinking that his own name wasn’t Qinglan but Qinglu, but after considering it, he decided not to correct it. Miss Xie probably wouldn’t straighten out his name any time soon, nor distinguish him from the others, so he nodded and went out.
Xie Zhinuan had studied the guards’ names for a long time but still hadn’t figured out how Li Hengyi came up with them.
Qinglan, Qingzi, Qinglu, Qinghuang, Qingcheng, Qinghong.
The standard spectrum of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple.
Yet to this day, she hadn’t managed to clearly distinguish who was who.
It was distressing.
That’s what Xie Zhinuan thought as she massaged her forehead.
Li Hengyi… how was he doing now? Had he received the cloak she’d sent? Did he like it?
In a large house within Gaocheng County
Shopkeeper Hu spoke softly to someone, “I think this Miss Xie won’t be easily fooled, sir, what do you think…”
“Not easily fooled?” The County Magistrate sipped his lips, “Didn’t she like that residence?”
