On the night of August 15th, there was a slight autumn breeze and a round, bright moon hung high in the sky.

The Queen, along with the princesses, dukes, and ladies of honor who had come to attend the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, performed the ceremony of worshipping the moon.

Yun Xiangye held Nuonuo and participated in the moon worship ceremony together. After the moon worship, according to the rules, she washed Nuonuo's eyes and hands with tea, wishing Nuonuo to have bright eyes and dexterous hands.

After the moon worship, several children played together. Although Jingru was not the oldest, she was the undisputed king of the children. With Jingru playing with Nuonuo, Yun Xiangye was not afraid that other children would bully Nuonuo.

Yun Xiangye watched Nuonuo playing with these royal children.

Xie Zhixuan walked to Yun Xiangye's side. Yun Xiangye heard the noise and bowed, saying, "Your Highness the Princess."

Xie Zhixuan smiled faintly and said, "You should just call me mother."

"Yes, mother." Yun Xiangye agreed.

Xie Zhixuan looked at Yun Xiangye and said, "Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. After the palace banquet is over, come home with us."

Yun Xiangye whispered, "Mother, I..."

Xie Zhixuan noticed Yun Xiangye's dilemma and said angrily, "Gu Yan still hasn't coaxed you? It's been several months? Does he still want this wife? He's almost 22 years old..."

Yun Xiangye whispered again, "No, mother, Gu Yan... I have forgiven Gu Yan for what he did before. However, it's good for me not to get married now. I don't have to be thought of as unworthy of Gu Yan by others, and I don't have to listen to those words that belittle me. I don't have to be looked down upon..."

Xie Zhixuan said, "The more this is the case, the more you shouldn't back down. Why are you not worthy of Gu Yan? I'm your mother-in-law, and I've never said you're not worthy of Gu Yan. Why do you care about other people's gossip?"

Yun Xiangye said, "Mother, if it were other people's gossip, I wouldn't care. My family only has two daughters, my sister and I. I've heard many harsh words in Fangqiao Town. However, in your house, it's Gu Yan's cousins ​​who look down on me and show no respect...

And Gu Yan... like you, he also feels that this disrespect is unnecessary, but as for me, I simply don't covet the power of the Princess's Mansion. Why should the status of Prince Ning's Consort be degraded?"

Xie Zhixuan said slowly: "This is my fault."

"I don't dare..." Yun Xiangye said hurriedly, "It's not..."

Xie Zhixuan smiled and said, "It's my fault. I'm usually busy curing patients in the pharmacy, and Jingru is young. Sometimes when I finally get some free time, I can't take care of Yan'er and you, let alone the nonsense of those people outside.

I have never tried to establish your authority outside. I always thought that since you were the housekeeper, we would respect you in our family. I really didn't expect that since you had just arrived in Chang'an, many people would be jealous of you behind your back and want to laugh at you.

It was indeed my oversight. Zhao Rui didn't really want you to be divorced; he was just having fun. Afterwards, his parents gave him a good scolding. He's now gone to Xiangcheng. Otherwise, I would have made him come here to kowtow and apologize to you."

Yun Xiangye said, "This can't be entirely blamed on Zhao Rui. It's Gu Yan..."

Xie Zhixuan smiled and said, "You are right not to come back. We did not give you the respect you deserve. I still owe you a wedding gift, so many people think you can be bullied by them.

I didn't know when you married Gu Yan. By the time I found out, you were already pregnant, and the wedding was delayed.

Then, at the end of the year, I will hold a grand wedding ceremony for you and Yan'er, announcing to all of Chang'an that you belong to the Princess's Mansion, and no one will look down on you anymore."

Yun Xiangye lowered her head and said, "This..."

Xie Zhixuan said softly: "If you believe in mother, give mother and Gu Yan another chance."

Yun Xiangye lowered her head and pursed her lips as she looked at Xie Zhixuan, "Yeah."

She might as well take another gamble, even if it was just for the sake of Nuonuo who was laughing so happily.

After Yun Xiangye finished talking to Xie Zhixuan, she went to look for Ye Wanhe, but Ye Wanhe was next to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so Yun Xiangye couldn't get close to her and had to give up.

After coming out of the palace.

Nuonuo was sleeping soundly in Gu Yan's arms.

After getting on the carriage, Gu Yan said to Yun Xiangye, "When we went to the Ye family just now, Ye Li told me that he has a girl he likes."

Yun Xiangye asked, "Oh? Who is it?"

Gu Yan said: "It's Run'er."

Yun Xiangye raised an eyebrow and smiled softly, "This is a good marriage. Why didn't Ye Li tell me earlier?"

Gu Yan said, "Ye Li wanted to marry Run'er back in Fangqiao Town, but Run'er wanted to follow you to Chang'an, forcing Ye Li not to tell anyone about this. Run'er is very loyal to you."

Yun Xiangye smiled gently and said, "Run'er is definitely loyal. So, let's wait until your sister's child is born before deciding on this wedding."

Gu Yan said, "Why do we have to wait until the birth of my sister's child to decide the marriage? The sooner we can decide on the marriage, the sooner Run'er can get married."

Yun Xiangye snorted softly, "You're so anxious, but I can't bear to leave my Run'er."

"You couldn't even bear to let Run'er marry Ye Li. If Nuonuo gets married in the future, won't you cry your eyes out?" Gu Yan joked.

Yun Xiangye said, "It's still early."

Gu Yan chuckled and took Yun Xiangye into his arms, whispering, "I've checked, and there are many suitable dates for marriage this winter. Let Run'er get married soon, and the Ye family will also be able to expand sooner."

Yun Xiangye said, "I'm afraid it won't work this year."

Gu Yan asked: "Why?"
