Nearing the Zi Hour, Jiang Yifan finally escorted Ye Xinyan back to Duke An's Mansion.
The carriage hadn't yet entered the gate when they happened to encounter a messenger from Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion, who said that the boys were enjoying themselves so much that Zhao Gang had taken them to Qushui to enjoy a boat ride. They estimated that it would be very late by the time they finished playing, so they would first rest for the night at Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion, have a good sleep, and then return the children the next day after lunch.
Ye Xinyan listened with amusement and smiled at Jiang Yifan, "I was worried that Qi Jia and the others wouldn't have fun without me, but it seems the little ones are enjoying themselves even more."
Jiang Yifan also chuckled. At this rate, in the future, wouldn't Qi Jia and the others find it dull and restrictive to play with them? It was a bit hurtful.
