Fix Smile Order

Chapter 132

When Tang Tianyuan was catching the little sparrow, he was seen by Zheng Shaofeng. The latter was deeply horrified. In the past, Tang Tianyuan told him he was wasting time playing with a laughingthrush, but now, this serious person was digging through birds’ nests!

Zheng Shaofeng almost slapped himself. He wanted to know whether it was him or Tang Tianyuan that had gone mad. He circled the tree twice and finally jumped up to take a closer look. During his ascent, Zheng Shaofeng saw Tang Tianyuan smiling. He was holding a handful of grains to feed the surrounding birds, there was even half a steamed bun in the bird's nest.

Zheng Shaofeng was frightened again. When he landed back down, his foot was unsteady, and he staggered back a few steps.

Tang Tianyuan also noticed Zheng Shaofeng’s presence. He dusted himself and then calmly jumped down.

Zheng Shaofeng saw that the neckline on Tang Tianyuan’s clothing was a little loose. A small head poked out of it, still tremblingly; it was a baby sparrow.

"You– You– You..." Zheng Shaofeng opened his mouth wide, but couldn’t speak coherently.

"Oh, I took a bird from them. I felt a little sorry, so I gave them some food." Tang Tianyuan replied in a nonchalant manner.

"No, what did you catch it for?"

"As the saying goes, ‘a beauty's smile is worth a thousand gold.’ Since she asked for it, this bird is hers." Tang Tianyuan put his hands behind his back and smiled lovingly into the distance. It was supposed to be a romantic scene, but it's a pity that the bird in his chest kept shaking its head, completely ruining the atmosphere.

Zheng Shaofeng understood. "You want to use this bird to please Tan meizi?"

 Tang Tianyuan nodded.

"Ah! So you’re using your bird to please the beauty?[1]" Zheng Shaofeng repeated the sentence again. He stroked his chin and laughed, "Dirty bast*rd!"

Tang Tianyuan gave the baby sparrow to Tan Lingyin. Tan Lingyin gave it to Ruyi as soon as she received it. Needless to say, Ruyi was elated.

In the evening, Tang Tianyuan wanted to personally ask Ji Heng and his wife about their accommodation. The two ancestors didn't give their advance notice before leaving. Since he didn't have time for a grand reception, Tang Tianyuan wanted to at least clean out the guest room now. He felt that such a simple guest room was really not worthy of the noble temperament of those two. After thinking about it, he simply vacated the most luxurious courtyard in the county government office. Yes, that's where he lived.

Ji Zhao felt that there was no need to be so troublesome. Anyway, there were quite a few rooms in this courtyard. Everyone could live together, that way it would be lively. The most important thing was that Tan Lingyin also lived here. When Ji Zhao learned that she had taken care of Qingchen for many years, she had a good impression of her, and always wanted to get close to her.

What Ji Zhao’s thoughts were Ji Heng thoughts, so no one dared to object to this proposal.

Tang Tianyuan insisted on giving up the main room. He moved to the West Wing.

Tan Lingyin was also in the West Wing.

HEHEHE… He’s living next door to Yinyin! Tang Tianyuan felt very, very happy, and immediately forgave Tan Lingyin for begging him to catch a little sparrow in order to please Ruyi.

Everyone was tired after dinner. Ji Heng felt that his wife experienced great joy and great sorrow in her life today. She had cried for so long and her eye circles were still red. She must need his comfort tonight.

He was fully prepared when she declined him, "I want to sleep with Sister Lingyin tonight. I want to talk to her by candlelight."

Ji Heng persuaded, "If you have anything to say, you can do so during the day. It's not good to trouble others at night." The most important thing is, what about him?!

Ji Zhao was a little embarrassed, "She already agreed to have me over tonight."

Ji Heng had no choice but to compromise, and watched her leave with a resentful expression.

In fact, Ji Zhao didn't feel tired at all, let alone sleepy. She found her long lost brother, which was something she never dared to dream about. So she has been in a state of extreme excitement since meeting Tan Qingchen today. She couldn't wait to know everything about him. How he had been doing these years, whether he was doing well, whether he had been bullied...

Tan Lingyin understood Ji Zhao's mentality very well. She opened the door to welcome her in and handed her a hand warmer.

Ji Zhao took the hand warmer and thanked her. She saw a fluffy mass lying at the foot of the bed, it was the dog named Tang Tang.

Tan Lingyin explained, "Tang Tang is also afraid of the cold, so it will sleep in my room at night. Is that okay?"

Ji Zhao nodded her head. She felt as if she was inconveniencing Tan Lingyin. As an Empress, this kind of emotion was very unusual. The reason was probably because this was a very important matter, so it was treated with care.

Tan Lingyin saw through Ji Zhao’s awkwardness. She pulled Ji Zhao to sit on the bedside, and said with a smile, "You are Qingchen's older sister, and I am also Qingchen's older sister, so we should be sisters. I heard your husband call you A Zhao, then I will call you Sister Zhao."

Ji Zhao nodded. Her eyes squinted into crescents from her smile. "Okay!"

Tan Lingyin wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so she patted her forehead, "Oh! I just thought of something funny."

Ji Zhao asked with a smile, "What is it?"

"Your name is Ji Zhao and you are from the capital. I heard that the current Empress is also named Ji Zhao. Do you think if she knew you shared her name, would the Empress force you to change your name?"

"..." The corners of Ji Zhao's mouth were a little stiff, "This– this— um, the Empress should not be so unreasonable."

"That's not necessarily true. I heard that the Emperor is afraid of the Empress. Think about it, even the Emperor is afraid of her..."

Ji Zhaowas in between tears and laughter. "How could the Emperor be afraid of her?!"

Tan Lingyin noticed that Ji Zhao's reaction was not normal. She suddenly remembered another thing: Sister Zhao’s husband's surname was Ji. It was the same as the emperor's surname!

As if struck by thunder, Tan Lingyin looked at Ji Zhao and stammered, "You— You— You— You couldn’t really be the Empress, right?" She slowly started to retreat backwards.

"Don't be afraid..." Ji Zhao's voice was soft and gentle, as if to comfort a frightened animal.

Tan Lingyin rushed to her bed and huddled in the corner, "Ahh!! You are really the Empress!"

"Shh——" Ji Zhao made a quiet gesture. She was a little apologetic, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you. It's just...you understand, right?"

Tan Lingyin nodded like she was pounding garlic.

"Why don't we go to bed first. How about lying on the bed and chatting?" Ji Zhao fluffed her blanket, "How do you want to sleep?"

"I want to sleep while kneeling."

"…"
