Cheng Ziang was so amused that he kept peeking back at Qin Yan during the court session. Look at this guy standing with his head lowered and his body swaying occasionally. Even a fool could tell that he was asleep. Only this guy dared to fall asleep in the court from ancient times to the present.

He was almost scared to death, this kid is really big. This carelessness is a serious crime of confiscating the property.

"I'm not saying anything bad, brother, you're really amazing. You dare to sleep in the hall. Really, you are this."

He put one hand on Qin Yan's shoulder, and when he was talking excitedly, he stretched out the other hand in front of him and gave him a thumbs up.

Lin Yecheng, who was following, looked at Qin Yan's drowsy appearance and shook his head, "Tsk, you are really capable and you really sleep well."

Qin Yan yawned and turned to look at the people on both sides of him, "Ha, aren't you all sleepy? Shouldn't you stay at home and sleep in this winter? Let me tell you, if you hadn't barged into my house today, ha, I wouldn't have come."

Cheng Ziang got excited and said, "What you said is true. This is the morning court session. If those ministers see you being disrespectful to the morning court session, they will spit at you to death."

Lin Yecheng was also amazed and put his hand on Qin Yan's shoulder, "Brother, you are my true brother. You are the first person in history."

Qin Yan was just listening to the advice and criticisms from those old-fashioned people, who were all old men in their forties arguing in the hall until their faces turned red and their necks became thick.

I thought it was interesting at first, but I couldn't stand their constant noise. To be honest, I got sleepy watching them quarreling.

It's really not his fault. This took him back to his school days, when the teacher was performing passionately on the stage, and he, oh, was really sleepy.

However, looking at his brothers beside him, and then at the officials who were returning home from court one after another, he really didn't know how to say it directly.

How come two of my buddies’ fathers are among these ministers?

"Hey, don't just blame me. I've got a question for you. You pulled me out of bed so early in the morning before dawn. It would be strange if I wasn't sleepy. Ha~" She yawned at Cheng Ziang.

Ye Wei also caught up with them from the inner court and just happened to hear this, "Hey, you didn't sleep last night, did you? Huh?"

The eyes of several people around him changed instantly when they looked at Qin Yan, and they all looked at him teasingly.

"Humph, I have a wife, how can I be the same as you guys? Why are you envious? I envy you but you don't have any. Let's go, my wife is waiting for me to go back."

Before he could finish his words, he ran away.

Three people were left there, looking at the man who was walking so fast that he was flying, and they were speechless.

Qin Yan returned to the Qin Mansion and walked straight inside.

It is not easy to be an official. The court session starts at Mao time (5 to 7 o'clock). It is only 8 o'clock now and I can go back to take a nap.

Passing the front pavilion, turn directly into his courtyard, the Summer Palace.

There was no other way. Two people without literary sentiments came up with this grand and elegant name. It could also remind them of their origins and not to lose the backbone of the Chinese people in this ancient time.

However, when Old Lady Qin saw it, she praised it and Qin Yan and Jiang Zhisao blushed.

In the garden, old lady Qin was watering the potatoes in the vat. When she saw Qin Yan walking quickly over, she immediately put down the kettle and walked forward a few steps with her crutches.

"Brother Yan~ Why are you walking so fast? Where are you going?"

Watching Qin Yan's disappearing back, I heard his voice, "Grandma, I just came back from court, I need to sleep for a while. I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me."

Old Madam Qin shook her head, turned around and muttered "Brat~" and continued to tend to the seeds with a smile.

Qin Yan returned to the yard and went straight to the inner room. He took off his court robes, lifted the quilt and lay down in it.

Jiang Zhi was somewhat awakened by the noise, but not completely. She didn't have a mother-in-law, and her grandmother was a sensible old lady, so she didn't have to greet him in the morning.

She instinctively moved into Qin Yan's arms without opening her eyes, and said unconsciously: "Where have you been? Why are you back just now?" Her voice became smaller and smaller, and she fell asleep again without hearing Qin Yan's answer.

Qin Yan held his wife in his arms, watching her sleeping soundly, and said softly: "I just went to court and disturbed you. I'm sorry. I'll watch over you while you sleep now."

Regardless of whether Jiang Zhi heard it or not, Qin Yan patted Jiang Zhi's back and coaxed her to sleep.

Qin Yan also fell asleep.

Before going to bed, I was thinking that in ancient times, people had to get up before dawn to go to work, earlier than going to work every day. I really got up earlier than the chickens. Oh, I am afraid I will go crazy sooner or later.

After sleeping for half an hour, they got up and washed up.

After cleaning up, Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi left the yard and walked to the garden, where they saw Old Madam Qin watering the flowers.

Jiang Zhi quickly walked to the side of Mrs. Qin, took the small kettle from her hand, held her hand, and gently comforted her: "Grandma, why are you watering the flowers here again? What if the ground is wet and you slip and fall?"

He frowned slightly, very disapproving.

Qin Yan was very tactful. While Jiang Zhi was supporting the old lady, he also walked to the other side to support the hand that was using the crutch.

The two of them walked slowly towards the pavilion in the middle.

Hearing Jiang Zhi's words, he nodded in cooperation with a serious expression.

Old Lady Qin felt very comforted when she saw the two younger generations caring about her.

He said with a smile, "My old bones are not yet unable to move. I have been staying in the temple all these years and I am almost bored. Now that Brother Yan is back and he brought his grandson's wife with him, I am very happy and want to do something."

Qin Yan and Jiang Zhi also knew that the old lady was just bored, and they were helpless and had no idea what to do.

I can only comfort her.

"Grandma, your grandson is back now. I will definitely accompany you well with my wife and my younger sister. In the future, I can even give you a great-grandson and great-granddaughter. Don't be annoyed when the time comes."

Hearing Qin Yan's joke, Jiang Zhi thought of what someone had done last night. She felt a little embarrassed and annoyed, and with a red face, she pretended to be angry and called his name: "Qin Yan!"

Old Lady Qin was happy to see the newlyweds getting along so sweetly.

She was even happier to hear Qin Yan's words. Their Qin Mansion would get better and better. "Okay, grandma, I will definitely not be annoyed. Hahaha."

Qin Yan took some cakes and tea and placed them in the pavilion in the garden, where he chatted with Old Lady Qin around the bonsai trees that were surrounded by flowers.

Noon

The Qin family, who were having dinner in the front pavilion, heard shouting and footsteps coming from outside the door.

When Qin Yan heard Cheng Ziang's voice, he quickly shoveled rice into his mouth, put down his chopsticks, and said to Jiang Zhi and Mrs. Qin who had not finished eating, "Grandma, madam, I'm done eating. I'll go to the front hall to see what Cheng Ziang wants to talk to me about. You guys eat slowly."

He put down the bowl and hurried out, muttering to himself, why did he come here again when I just saw him this morning?
