The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 945 - 529: A Serious Man Is Quite Handsome (Fourth Update)
"Yes, yes, yes, grandfather has prepared many snacks. If the Princess is hungry, grandfather will take you to eat now," Ye Zhengde quickly said.
An Youyou obediently nodded.
The little chubby hand kept holding Ye Zhengde’s.
The saying "A nursing bottle is like a mother" was made for An Youyou.
"Your Majesty, the Empress invites you," Ye Zhengde hurriedly called to An Ning and Xiao Jinxing.
Xiao Jinxing nodded slightly.
He was the first to walk into the Minister Mansion.
An Ning looked at the Minister Mansion she hadn’t seen in five years; it hadn’t changed much.
The last time she was here, it wasn’t long after she had transmigrated into the book, and Xiao Jinxing was still pondering how to kill her to clear the way.
Everyone entered the house.
First, the whole family sat together in the living room for a while, chatting casually.
But with Xiao Jinxing there, it couldn’t be too informal.
So they didn’t sit for long before An Ning excused herself due to physical fatigue and wanted to return to her room.
Ye Zhengde hurriedly arranged for someone to take them to the prepared courtyard.
To An Ning’s surprise, she and Xiao Jinxing were arranged to stay together.
It was still the best courtyard that Ye Zhengde had prepared for Xiao Jinxing during his fortieth birthday celebration.
Isn’t it said that when returning to your parents’ home you shouldn’t stay in the same room?!
Indeed, the Emperor is an exception.
"I’m going to see my mother, do you want to take a nap?" An Ning asked Xiao Jinxing.
"Don’t mind me, do what you need to do," Xiao Jinxing said gently.
Rarely so agreeable.
"Then don’t wander around," An Ning reminded.
"Am I... not allowed to be seen?" Xiao Jinxing raised his eyebrows.
"..." An Ning was speechless and explained, "Your status is too noble. If you wander around, the servants at home would be terrified."
"So in your heart, I’m not even as good as your family’s servants," Xiao Jinxing concluded.
An Ning glared at Xiao Jinxing.
Is that what she meant?!
"You go ahead, I won’t wander around. I’ll stay in the room and wait for the Empress to return," Xiao Jinxing unexpectedly compromised.
An Ning pursed her lips.
There’s always this feeling, as if she’d made Xiao Jinxing suffer some great grievance.
She took a deep breath and turned to leave.
Xiao Jinxing, that guy, is best at manipulating people’s hearts.
How could she fall into his trap!
An Ning went straight to Qin Mengxi’s courtyard.
A few children were playing in her courtyard.
Qin Mengxi saw her and immediately tried to kneel.
"Mother, if you act like this at home, I’ll be angry," An Ning said with a hint of reproach.
Qin Mengxi did not force the etiquette.
She couldn’t help but ask, "Why have you come over? Weren’t you tired? Where’s the Emperor? He’s alone in the room?"
"Mother, you’re asking too many questions at once. Which one do you want me to answer?" An Ning teased with a smile, and that moment her eyes suddenly tightened, "An Youyou, who allowed you to eat so much!"
Before she could properly talk to Qin Mengxi, An Ning suddenly became furious.
Anqi and Ye Jixuan inside the room were shocked by An Ning’s voice.
An Luming was used to this and stayed calm.
He even had a forethought expression on his face.
He had just advised Youyou to eat less, or else mother would be angry.
She didn’t think much of it.
At that moment, her mouth was stuffed with almond cake, looking quite funny.
With An Ning’s shout.
She almost choked.
Her face turned all red.
"How can you shout at the child like that," Qin Mengxi noticed Youyou’s expression and quickly went over to pick her up, gently patting her back, "Don’t be afraid, eat slowly, grandmother is here."
An Youyou finally calmed down a bit.
She resumed chewing with her little mouth.
Qin Mengxi quickly asked someone to bring tea and carefully fed it to An Youyou.
After much effort, An Youyou swallowed the almond cake.
After swallowing, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her chubby hands hugged Qin Mengxi’s neck, "Grandmother, mother always bullies me, mother doesn’t let me eat, I’m going to starve, waa..."
Qin Mengxi felt heartbroken hearing An Youyou say this.
She comforted An Youyou a few times.
Then she turned to An Ning and complained, "Qi’er, how can you not let children eat?"
"Mother, does An Youyou look like she’s not eating anything? She’s as chubby as a little ball."
"I’ve gotten thinner. Today, father said I was much lighter when he carried me," An Youyou retorted.
Xiao Jinxing was clearly lying through his teeth.
When they left today, she naturally saw Xiao Jinxing pick up An Youyou.
And she also heard their conversation.
It was simply eye-popping.
"Qi’er, chubby kids are adorable and bring luck," Qin Mengxi said, spoiling Youyou without limits, "And Youyou is cute because she’s chubby, grandmother loves chubby Youyou."
"Youyou loves grandmother too, grandmother is so gentle and beautiful," An Youyou sweetly said.
Qin Mengxi was overjoyed by An Youyou’s words.
"Grandmother, I’m full, I want to go outside to catch butterflies," An Youyou sweetly said.
"Okay, okay, grandmother will take you to catch butterflies," Qin Mengxi readily agreed, "Anqi, Luming, Xuanxuan, let’s go outside and accompany Youyou to catch butterflies."
Clearly.
In just a little while.
An Youyou had already become the little darling.
"Okay."
Everyone followed to the outer courtyard.
In May, Xun City wasn’t too hot, the air was just right, and there were indeed many butterflies in the courtyard.
An Youyou, Anqi, and Ye Jixuan ran around the garden with nets to catch them.
An Luming wasn’t fond of such things, so he took a book and read at the pavilion nearby.
An Ning and Qin Mengxi also sat in the pavilion watching the children play and laugh.
"Youyou is really cute," Qin Mengxi couldn’t help but remark, "Anqi and Xuanxuan were never this lively before, but because of Youyou, look how happy they are playing."
"Troublemaker," An Ning commented.
"What?"
"Nothing," An Ning quickly changed the topic, "Mother, you were asking about the Emperor just now? He’s in the room handling state affairs, no need to worry about him."
"The Emperor is so busy and still accompanies you out of the palace, Qi’er..."
"Don’t try to persuade me."
"Okay, okay, I won’t say more," Qin Mengxi said indulgently.
She also felt that the matters of the heart are like drinking water, only you know if it’s warm or cold.
No amount of words from others is useful. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Just then.
A servant brought over some snacks again.
Qin Mengxi quickly wanted to call the children to eat the snacks.
"Mother," An Ning stopped her directly.
An Youyou really couldn’t eat any more.
She was already overweight.
"I suddenly thought of the Emperor being alone in the room, I’ll bring him some snacks," An Ning said, "I’ll take these away."
Qin Mengxi was motivated when she heard it was for the Emperor and readily agreed, even a little excited, "Then you go, I’ll stay with the kids. Hurry up and go."
An Ning really didn’t want to pour cold water on Qin Mengxi’s excitement.
She got up, instructing the servant to bring the snacks, and left.
Back in the room.
Eunuch Ping was attending to Xiao Jinxing as he reviewed memorials.
Sometimes, you must admit.
A serious man is really quite handsome!
