Chapter 302

~8 min read 1,471 words

Princess Consort of Qi still felt sorry for the elder sister.

Bringing the person back to the residence to be Sui Sui's study companion, avoiding the residence's strife, letting Lu Xing Lan go into battle without worries, is actually also a good thing.

As for the Meng residence…

After thinking, the Princess Consort of Qi said: "Why not bring over Brother Autumn or Brother Winter? It wouldn't be right to favor one and neglect the other."

The two nephews from the Meng Consort's natal family are both young; Meng Junqiu is only eleven, and Meng Dong is even younger, only seven.

At this age, they're already studying; coming to the Small Classroom is fine.

Although the Princess Consort of Qi didn't want the Wangfu's Small Classroom to become a place of fame and profit, originally it was to guard against people like Car Maid.

She still took great care of Consort Ren and Consort Meng, especially since the Ren family still had some marital ties with her, so she needed to take even more care.

Lu Xing Lan's two sons are not suitable to bring over, because the younger son is already fourteen and now studying at the Qingyun Academy.

Moreover, even if the Princess Consort of Qi were really to take them, she wouldn't want to.

To be honest, even if she were the other party's aunt, the Princess Consort of Qi still couldn't stand that child; he's really too mischievous!

The Princess Consort of Qi hadn't seen the person, but just hearing the name gave her a headache; letting them into the residence, she feared she wouldn't be able to do anything else that day and would just be judging the children's disputes.

Prince Qi heard this and thought it also made sense.

The main reason is…

The Meng family members are well educated; if we could bring more of them to tutor the Wangfu's poor students, that would also be a good idea.

Thinking of this, Prince Qi nodded: "Let me ask the Meng clan later to see if they're willing to send one over; we can't send them all, there are too many people, don't disturb my little darling."

Whether there are many or few people, the Princess Consort of Qi actually doesn't particularly care.

Moreover, the Meng residence's young masters are indeed all gentle and polite; this might be related to each family's family tradition.

Thinking about the Cheng Guó Gōng residence, the Princess Consort of Qi nodded: "Do you want to go to Consort Ren's place tonight to soothe her emotions, so she doesn't impulsively rush back to her natal family?"

After saying that, the Princess Consort of Qi also thought of the pregnant Guo Maid, which made her feel a bit embarrassed.

We need to take care of all of them, but we should first prioritize.

Prince Qi doesn't mind where to go.

Anyway, it's all about going to sleep peacefully; whose bed it is doesn't matter.

He still has to take a medicinal bath tonight.

Thinking of this, he just wanted to grab a knife and go to the Tianlao.

Prince Qi gritted his teeth and said softly: "I don't know how the Che Shi case is going; no, I'll have to ask about it tomorrow."

Regarding this matter, the Princess Consort of Qi didn't say much.

Actually, Prince Qi turned the topic back to studying: "Right, the Song residence side—you take care of arranging it; I remember Xiao Pangzi and Kuan Ge'er are doing early education at the residence, they haven't gone to the academy yet, right?"

For this matter, the Prince doesn't bring it up, but the Princess Consort of Qi will arrange it.

As the Princess Consort, she still has this authority.

Now that the Prince brought it up, the Princess Consort of Qi nodded slightly: "Brother Yuan is just six, hasn't entered the academy yet; Kuan Ge'er is eight, and the second brother actually intends to send him to the academy, but the sister-in-law is somewhat reluctant."

The child is too young; if they really left home, how could the mother bear to part?

Moreover, the residence can also provide early education; actually, delaying a bit, letting them grow a bit older, then going would still be in time.

Prince Qi couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Exactly, exactly, exactly, Little Chubby Brother Yuan, so this child's name can't be chosen casually; look, naming him Brother Yuan really makes him round, so, our little darling, he's definitely going to be cute, soft, and lovable."

When he mentioned his precious good child, Prince Qi was practically glowing all over.

Although her own nephew was being teased, Princess Consort of Qi didn't get angry, but instead gave a gentle look at the sleeping Sui Sui.

Her Sui Sui was indeed both well-behaved and adorable.

The carriage swayed back to the Wangfu, and as soon as it stopped, Sui Sui woke up.

The journey wasn't long, but the little girl clearly hadn't slept well; she looked at Father King and Mother Consort with sleepy eyes, and for a good while she didn't move.

Prince Qi looked at her, feeling heartbroken, and kept calling out "good child": "Father King's good child, don't sleep yet, let's have a sip of porridge before sleeping, otherwise you'll be hungry and uncomfortable in the middle of the night."

Sui Sui actually wasn't that hungry; there was too much delicious food at today's banquet, and Mother Consort had been attending to her eating.

So, Sui Sui's little belly was still round and full.

But Father King personally fed her, and Sui Sui couldn't resist the temptation.

However, she only drank a few sips before her eyes closed again.

Prince Qi, feeling heartbroken, had someone wet a warm water cloth, carefully wiped Sui Sui's face, tidied up a bit, then had Xiang Gugu change the child into nightclothes before putting Sui Sui back on the bed.

The child had played all day and was truly tired.

Not to mention Sui Sui, even Feng Xuanrui woke up with a bit of morning grumpiness, not very happy.

After returning, not to mention drinking porridge, after opening his eyes and dazedly looking at the people, he gestured for Qing Shan to carry him back to sleep.

Feng Xuanbin slept even more soundly; when the carriage stopped, he still didn't wake up, and in the end was carried back by the little attendant Qing Shun.

Feng Xuancang and the others were older, so it was fine; they had dozed off along the way, and now that they were awake, they could still maintain a bit of clarity.

However, they didn't stay awake for long; after each had a bowl of porridge, they all went back to sleep in the southern courtyard.

Prince Qi gazed at Sui Sui's sleeping face for a while, then walked toward Madame Guo's residence, looking back every few steps.

Princess Consort of Qi was uneasy about Madame Guo's side, but since Sui Sui was asleep and she didn't want to leave, she had Prince Qi first go sit with Madame Guo, comfort her emotions, let her rest easy in her pregnancy, and then go to Ren Ce Fei's side.

Although Prince Qi was reluctant to leave Sui Sui, he didn't shirk his responsibility and quickly went to Madame Guo's place.

Madame Guo had just finished dinner and was listening to an aunt read to her.

She herself came from a poor background and hadn't read much.

It was just luck that she managed to climb into the Qi Wang Fu; otherwise, the hardship of this lifetime would be obvious at a glance.

Therefore, she didn't want her own child to endure the same hardship.

Even if it were just learning a few more characters?

So, when the aunt said listening to more books was good, she patiently listened.

To be honest……

I can't understand it, I simply can't understand it.

Listening made her brain almost explode.

As soon as she heard the Prince was coming, she became nervous again and started tidying up.

Prince Qi just came over to sit; earlier, the Princess Consort intentionally concealed it, not letting him know that Sui Sui had once said that Aunt Guo's belly contained a younger brother.

However, when Feng Xuanrui later spoke, he directly revealed the truth, and Prince Qi naturally knew.

Prince Qi, who once thought having a daughter was everything, has now completely lost his obsessive desire for a daughter.

He tried as much as possible to keep an ordinary mind toward this unborn child.

Prince Qi even comforted himself, thinking that having a son would actually be fine.

When she grows up later, Sui Sui will have seven older brothers and a younger brother to protect her.

That's also quite good.

The second watch is at 19:00.
