Chapter 401 Showers
"Wh...what?" Ye Qing'an was taken aback by Eleven's sudden remark and paused for a moment before realizing what he meant. "This...this isn't necessary, is it?"
"It was Mother herself who said it. She doesn't miss Father; she misses him very much. Father also said before that he missed Mother and me, and asked me to ask Mother if she missed him too."
"..." Ye Qing'an vaguely felt that she had fallen into some kind of trap.
"That's what your father said?"
"Yes."
Ye Qing'an took a deep breath: "Although I do miss your father very much, the teachings of Siyou Kingdom have always valued subtlety. Some things, once spoken, are no longer as beautiful. So, missing someone doesn't necessarily have to be said. It should be expressed silently in the details, allowing him to slowly experience and feel it himself. That is what makes it beautiful."
"A dry 'I miss him' would seem rather insincere."
Eleven blinked, a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Is that so?"
Ye Qing'an nodded without hesitation: "Yes, that's exactly it."
Eleven thought about it over and over in her mind, feeling that her awareness was still not as good as her mother's. She really couldn't imagine how to express "I miss you" in a subtle way that could be reflected in the details and still be felt by others.
"But I think that if you miss someone, you should tell them so they know."
Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "You are still young and don't know yet. Besides, since we are your parents, you can naturally express your love and longing for your parents directly. When you are a teenager and your heart begins to open up, and you fall in love with a girl, you should be able to understand."
"Is that so?" Eleven bit her lip and nodded gently. "Okay, I understand."
Ye Qing'an finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
She didn't want Eleven to tell Yi Moxu that she missed him. It was obvious that Yi Moxu had instructed Eleven to ask. If she got the answer he wanted, Yi Moxu would be incredibly proud.
Humph……
This person really knows how to use any means necessary, even a four-year-old child.
Eleven lay on the table looking at Ye Qing'an: "Mother, I heard that most four- or five-year-old children in Wangjing City are starting their elementary school education. Some families hire tutors to come back to their homes to teach them, while others go to academies or private schools to study with other children. Can I go to an academy or a private school?"
Ye Qing'an raised an eyebrow: "Why did you suddenly think of asking this? You have guards in the manor who teach you martial arts, and you can also go to the Cloud Dream Realm to cultivate the Mystic Spirit Technique. Your father and I can guide your cultivation. Isn't that good?"
“Of course it’s good, but…” Eleven lifted her chin with her two little hands and blinked her eyes: “After Ye Feiran left, no one plays with me anymore, and I feel a little bored. Daddy and Mommy are very busy on weekdays, and I don’t want to bother you too often.”
"There are one or two children of the same age in the manor, but they are all Ye Qinghao's children, and they are not of the same generation as me at all. Moreover, they don't seem to want to play with me."
Ye Qing'an paused slightly. The children in the manor were the same age as Eleven…
It must be the child of the fourth and seventh concubines.
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes, but her expression remained unchanged.
Eleven's words made some sense. Although Ye Feiran and Eleven didn't get along before and often bickered, the courtyard was a little more lively with Ye Feiran around.
Now that Ye Feiran has left the Ye family mansion, others think he's only gone for a few days to detoxify, but only she knows that Ye Feiran's departure will last for several years.
And her relationship with Yi Moxu...
Given the current state of affairs and her situation with Yi Moxu, from now on, she and Yi Moxu will indeed only become busier and busier, and they won't have much time to spend with Shiyi.
Ye Qing'an pondered for a moment before nodding slightly: "Going to a private school or an academy is fine too..."
"Yes, I think it's great. In private schools and academies, there are children of similar age, so we can play together and learn things at the same time."
"Then I'll go and take a look for you when I have time." Ye Qing'an pondered for a moment. There were only a few famous private schools in Wangjing City. She had to find a good tutor for Eleven and not repeat Ye Feiran's mistake.
As we left the place, it suddenly started raining heavily.
Zixiao quickly grabbed the umbrella and escorted Ye Qing'an towards the main courtyard.
Although it was only a short walk, Ye Qing'an was soaked through.
Zixiao quickly fetched a clean cloak and draped it over Ye Qing'an, saying, "This servant will have someone bring some hot water so that Miss can take a bath first."
After saying that, he went to the door to give the instructions.
After giving the instructions, Zixiao frowned and looked at the sky outside: "It's already late autumn, why is it suddenly raining so hard?"
Almost as soon as Zixiao finished speaking, the rain suddenly stopped.
Upon seeing this, Zixiao quickly went out of the house, stood in the courtyard for a while, and then ran back in.
"Young Miss, the rain has really stopped. It's not just lessened, it has completely stopped."
Zixiao felt increasingly strange: "The rain stopped so suddenly. I feel like something's not right about this rain. It doesn't feel like normal rain, but rather like I was suddenly doused with a bucket of water."
Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "Who knows? Maybe the weather is just that strange. Besides, didn't we see the phoenix rising from the ashes this morning? Perhaps the sudden stop of the rain tonight is also a kind of strange phenomenon?"
Zi Xiao nodded thoughtfully: "That's true."
The servants had already brought in hot water, and Zixiao quickly said, "Miss, go take a bath. You're all soaked and sticky, which must be uncomfortable."
Ye Qing'an stood up in response.
She had just finished bathing and changing her clothes when someone rushed in to report, "Young Miss, the butler has arrived."
Ye Qing'an was taken aback, turned around and glanced at the sky outside, which had already turned completely dark, and simply nodded: "Okay, I understand."
"The steward must have something important to say at this time." Zixiao quickly took an outer robe and put it on Ye Qing'an, then took a hair tie to tie up Ye Qing'an's hair before following Ye Qing'an out the door.
The butler turned to Ye Qing'an as soon as he saw her: "Miss, did you see the rain just now?"
"I saw it, and it even got soaked." Ye Qing'an laughed: "We were just talking about how the rain came and went so suddenly, which seemed a bit strange. Is there really something fishy about this rain?"
