Chapter 470  : Checking in on Old Friends

After Tang Li and Qi Yihan returned to the capital, their life returned to how it was before, but it was a little different.

Because there was Yang Yingying.

Butler Yang was very busy. Even if he wanted to take good care of Yang Yingying, he was sometimes too busy. However, Butler Zhang treated Yang Yingying as Qiqi and Linlin and doted on her, making her smile every day.

Sometimes, when Tang Li saw him, she would smile and joke, “Butler Zhang, I think you can become a kindergarten teacher. With your ability, you’re definitely a top teacher.”

Butler Zhang was very happy to be praised and replied, “I’m just practicing now so that I can take care of Master and Madam’s children in the future.”

At the mention of children, Tang Li thought about Qi Tiancheng and Qi Yaolong, who were about to get married. After they left the Imperial Capital, Second Madam had been looking for outstanding girls for her sons every day. She had investigated all the girls in the upper-class circle of the Imperial Capital. Now, the two of them were taking turns to go on blind dates.

“I wonder what Second Sister-in-law is thinking. She seems to be afraid that Tiancheng and Yaolong won’t be able to get a wife.”

Tang Li had been back for a few days. Third Madam came over every day to chat with her, and today was no exception.

“Does it have anything to do with me whether she wants her sons to get married or not?” Tang Li said.

Third Madam felt that Tang Li was too naive. “She wants Tiancheng and Yaolong to have children as soon as possible. If you and Fourth Brother don’t want children, no matter how much Fourth Brother earns, the family business will still be theirs in the future.”

Tang Li still didn’t care much when she heard that. “If their children are capable, Yihan and I won’t mind at all.”

After saying that, she added, “When Zeyu comes of age, Third Sister-in-law, you should also find him a wife as soon as possible. Maybe Zeyu’s child will be more promising than theirs.”

These words delighted Third Madam. “Really?”

She felt that Tang Li must have read her son’s fortune.

Tang Li smiled. “If you think it’s true, then it’s true.”

After staying for a while longer, Third Madam left happily.

After Third Madam left, Butler Zhang walked in with Qiqi, Linlin, and Yang Yingying.

“Madam.”

Tang Li looked at Yang Yingying. She didn’t remember much, and her intelligence was only that of a few years old. Tang Li was reminded of Yuan Yuan and wanted to visit her later.

When Tang Li arrived at Mrs. Guo’s house, Mrs. Guo wasn’t at home. Instead, she saw Ouyang Yi.

At this moment, Ouyang Yi was reading a fairy tale to Yuan Yuan.

The two of them heard footsteps and looked over at the same time.

“Hi, Tang Li.”

“Sister Tang.”

Tang Li walked over and asked, “How has Yuan Yuan been these past two months?”

“I learned a lot of words and started learning drawing as well. Sister Tang, let me show you my drawing.” After saying that, Yuan Yuan ran into the house to get her sketchbook.

Tang Li looked at Ouyang Yi and asked, “Don’t you have a mission recently?”

Ouyang Yi should be very busy now that he had become an official member.

“Yes,” Ouyang Yi said to her. “I just came back from a mission yesterday and wanted to come and see Yuan Yuan. Auntie Guo has something to do, so she asked me to help look after Yuan Yuan.”

Ouyang Yi used his life to protect Yuan Yuan, so he was used to visiting her every time he came back. Yuan Yuan was also very happy to spend time with him.

Tang Li nodded and did not say anything else.

Ouyang Yi asked, “Tang Li, I heard that the higher-ups are inviting your husband to participate in a very important scientific research. Did your husband agree?”

Qi Yihan had not told her about this, so Tang Li did not know. She shook her head.

“The higher-ups probably just asked him for help. I don’t mind if he agrees.”

Ouyang Yi nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Yuan Yuan took out her sketchbook.

Tang Li took it and looked at it carefully. She gave her a thumbs up. “Yuan Yuan’s painting is very beautiful.”

Yuan Yuan smiled shyly and pulled Tang Li and Ouyang Yi into the house. As they walked, she said, “Sister Tang, Brother Ouyang, Mom bought me grapes today. They’re delicious. You guys can try some.”

The two of them followed her in. Yuan Yuan took out the grapes.

Ouyang Yi ate one and asked her to go and practice drawing while he had something to talk about with Tang Li.

“Tang Li, I heard that you planted a lot of herbs that are about to go extinct on an island. Are you going to make a lot of magical herbs?”

“Right.”

“That’s great. In the future, if people like us get injured during missions, we won’t have to worry about dying.”

Tang Li nodded. “I’ll mass produce these herbs soon. When the time comes, I’ll prioritize cooperating with the military.”

“Then we’ll wait.”

“Yeah.”

Tang Li stayed at the Guo family’s house until Mrs. Guo returned. They chatted for a while longer before she left.

On the way, she received a call from the president of the medical association.

magic He invited her to a medical conference in two days.

Before Tang Li could reject, he said, “Miss Tang, this conference will be held at Imperial University’s medical school. The people who are attending are all professors. When the time comes, you’ll represent the medical world of the Imperial Capital. If you don’t want to say anything, you can just sit there.”

Tang Li smiled. “Are you asking me to make up the numbers?”

He smiled and said, “No, I’m inviting you to be our mascot.”

Tang Li thought for a moment. She planned to find some capable people in the medical world to help her develop new herbs, so she agreed.

The other party was very happy. “Alright, the conference will start at nine o’clock this Saturday morning. Come straight to the medical school’s hall.”

Tang Li, “Sure.”

After hanging up, Tang Li went to the entertainment company.

At that moment, Tang Zitong happened to be at the company. The moment she saw Tang Li, she tugged at her and said happily, “Fourth Sister, let me tell you a piece of good news. Yu Meng has already sung a song. Do you think we should post a preview of the song online or wait until the music video is produced?”

Tang Li did not know much about this, so she said, “It’s better to ask a professional about this. I don’t know.”

Tang Zitong thought for a while and finally said, “Then I’ll ask Si Haocheng. He definitely knows.”

Tang Li glanced at her and asked, “How is the relationship between you two going?”

Tang Zitong blushed in embarrassment. “Just… hold hands and kiss.”

With that, she covered her face. “Fourth Sister, why are you asking about something so embarrassing?”

Tang Li looked at her and chuckled. She asked, “Have you seen his family?”

“Yes.” At this point, Tang Zitong became discouraged. “He brought me to see his family without even telling me in advance. That day, I thought we were just going on an ordinary date. Fourth Sister, his family is filled with intellectuals. I was scared and didn’t know what to say to them.”

Tang Li imagined that scene and could feel how depressed Tang Zitong was at that time.

She asked again, “Didn’t Secretary Si help you?”

“Yes, he did. He deliberately picked topics that I know. After that, we talked about the instruments and the entertainment company. His parents and sister sat at the side and watched us.”

At this point, Tang Zitong felt extremely awkward. “At that time, I was thinking about how I should interact with my parents-in-law after I married him. However, to be honest, the food my future mother-in-law cooked was superb. I ate a lot. After eating, I realized that they had been staring at me. Do you think they think I ate too much?”

Tang Li suddenly felt like laughing, but she held it back and asked, “When you left, did they say anything or give you anything?”

“Yes, they told me to visit them again when I have time. My future mother-in-law even gave me two books. My future sister-in-law also gave me some good-looking stones.”

Tang Li said firmly, “Looks like they like you a lot.”

“Really? I was still worried that I gave them a bad impression back then” Tang Zitong scratched her head as she said.

“Don’t worry, you’re their benefactor. Even if you’re ugly, they’ll still like you.”

Tang Zitong complained in embarrassment, “Fourth Sister, what kind of metaphor is that?”

Tang Li smiled at her. “I mean, you’re very outstanding.”

“Hehe.”

After the two of them finished that topic, Tang Zitong started talking about Yu Meng. “Previously, Yu Meng rejected all the managers I hired for her. However, a few days ago, I hired another one and she immediately agreed to let him become her manager. Don’t you think it’s strange?”

Tang Li smiled and said, “It’s not strange. That person is the one she’s waiting for.”

“Ah!” Tang Zitong smiled and clapped her hands happily. “That’s great. I finally don’t have to be with her for 24 hours.”

Now that someone could accompany Yu Meng, she could focus all her attention on the imperial instruments in the future.
