Chapter 1880: Old Bracelet
Editor: Henyee Translations
By the time Yi Zilan and Shao Qingyuan finished talking, Gu Yundong was still asleep.
Yang Zhifu came over and said, "It’s already so late. It’s time for dinner. Yundong hasn’t eaten for the whole day. Won’t she starve? Qingyuan, go and wake her up. She can sleep after eating."
Shao Qingyuan was about to nod when the young princess jumped up and raised her hand. "I’ll get her. I’ll get her."
Then, she ran into the room like the wind.
Before Keke could say anything, she disappeared.
Gu Yundong was in a daze. Actually, she had already woken up, but perhaps because she had slept too much, she was too weak to open her eyes.
When she heard the door open, she thought that Shao Qingyuan had entered.
She only narrowed her eyes slightly when she felt something rubbing against her face.
The first thing she saw was a silver bracelet. She was stunned. The bracelet on her wrist suddenly slid down and fell onto the pillow beside her.
She heard a familiar voice. "Aiya, why did I drop it again? Fortunately, it didn’t hit Sister Yundong."
Then, a small figure climbed up from the edge of the bed. A pair of small hands passed over her head to pick up the bracelet and put it back on her wrist.
Gu Yundong blinked and frowned.
This scene—why did she feel a sense of familiarity?
Had she seen him somewhere before?
Before she could think further, the young princess’s surprised voice suddenly sounded in her ear. "Eh, Sister Yundong, you’re awake. I didn’t even wake you up."
She wanted to reach out to touch Sister Yundong’s face and call her gently.
Unexpectedly, just as she reached out, the bracelet suddenly fell out.
This bracelet could be fastened and loosened. Previously, when she helped wash the vegetables, the bracelet kept slipping off. It was too much of a hindrance. Hence, she loosened the bracelet and rubbed it on her arm.
Now, the bracelet was still loose. Once she moved her arm, wouldn’t it fall out?
Gu Yundong was pulled back to reality by her voice. She turned around and smiled at her. "Why are you here?"
"Grandpa Yang asked me to wake you up for dinner. He said that you haven’t eaten all day. You’ll starve to death."
Gu Yundong was speechless. No, she did not believe Grandpa’s words.
"I’ll get up now. Go out and wait for me."
"Okay," the Little Princess replied obediently and got off the bed.
This time, the bracelet that had just slipped on her wrist immediately fell to the ground again. She quickly picked it up, blew on it, and put it back on.
Seeing this, Gu Yundong pulled her hand over. "I’ll help you tighten it."
"Okay." The Little Princess handed over her wrist.
Gu Yundong pressed her fingers on both sides of the bracelet and looked at the exquisite little bracelet in front of her. For some reason, she felt that it looked a little similar to the one Shao Qingyuan had worn when he was young.
Children’s bracelets were probably all the same, but this bracelet was not tied with a ribbon.
The princess fastened the bracelet and went out happily to report the mission to Yang Zhifu.
Gu Yundong slowly got up as the scene from before flashed across her mind.
It was really familiar, but where had she seen it before?
Gu Yundong could not figure it out, but this matter inexplicably piled up in her heart. She felt uncomfortable not being able to recall it.
She went to the front hall and saw that Yi Zilan was also there. She could not help but pout.
Yi Zilan pretended not to see her expression and stayed in the Yang residence until late at night.
However, he also brought with him the punishment of the county magistrate and the truth about County Magistrate Ren back then.
