Chapter 248 Why should I be anxious if you are not anxious?
"Well, the palace has recently received a batch of new tribute fabrics, and the patterns are quite suitable for a girl of your age."
"When you leave the palace, take them with you and make more new clothes."
"You are young and beautiful, you should dress more vividly, don't let yourself down."
The queen was finally able to speak smoothly, but the content she said in the end was completely different from what she had just expressed to Jiang Yijing, and they were not related at all.
"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your reward."
Zhu Xuntao had no idea that the queen was slapping her in the face, and she happily accepted the reward,
and also said that after returning, she would definitely make new clothes and would never let down the queen's kindness.
The Queen looked at Zhu Xuntao's sweet smile and couldn't help but smile along with her:
"Okay, go and have fun. It must be tiring to take care of Chenliang and Miluo, right? Pay more attention to yourself."
One was the Queen's most beloved niece, and the other was the Queen's most nervous grandnephew.
Now, these two together are not as important as Zhu Xuntao.
Xiao Miluo and Xiao Chenliang listen to Zhu Xuntao the most. As long as Zhu Xuntao opens her mouth, these two little monkeys are more obedient than the other.
If we really talk about how tired it is to take care of two people, the one who is tired cannot be Zhu Xuntao.
But when the Queen said this, she was afraid that Zhu Xuntao would be tired. She almost gave up. It was another year.
Why were Xiao Miluo and Xiao Chenliang still so noisy and didn't seem to be more sensible at all?
"I will, Your Majesty."
Zhu Xuntao, who was used to being rewarded in the palace recently, didn't notice the little quarrel between her mother-in-law and the Queen at all
. After receiving the reward, she smiled and went back to the side hall.
Jiang Yijing waited until Zhu Xuntao walked far away and could no longer hear her, then she covered her mouth and laughed:
"Your Majesty, if you want to hold your little nephew so much, why didn't you say it to Taotao in person just now?"
"If your Majesty had spoken, maybe Taotao would have changed her mind and felt that the time was ripe to have a baby?"
"I am a soft-hearted woman in front of Taotao."
"Thinking of the life Taotao lived in the Zhu family before, I feel so sorry for her."
"As long as she doesn't want to, there is nothing you can do to persuade her."
"I heard that your Majesty is also looking forward to Taotao giving birth to a baby. I thought that with your help today, I could become a grandmother soon."
"Sister-in-law..."
The queen was so angry and embarrassed by what Jiang Yijing said.
In an instant, the two seemed to have returned to the time when the empress was still a girl in the Yongjing Marquis's mansion and was not yet in the good relationship with the emperor
. The two sisters-in-law got along very naturally.
"You can't speak to Taotao, and this, this palace... This palace is the same..."
If Jiang Yijing didn't speak because she felt sorry for Zhu Xuntao and wanted to let things take their course,
then the empress was simply embarrassed. She wanted to urge, but was too embarrassed to do so.
During the engagement period between Zhu Xuntao and Xiao Jingzhan, the empress did not take any special care of Zhu Xuntao, the future niece-in -law.
The indifferent performance, as if she had forgotten that there was such a person as Zhu Xuntao,
made everyone understand that the empress didn't approve of Zhu Xuntao.
Whether Zhu Xuntao can marry Xiao Jingzhan in the end is still to be discussed.
Because of this, the Queen understood that when Zhu Xuntao was in Zhu Mansion, even Zhu Dingxing did not value Zhu Xuntao,
which was influenced by her attitude.
Otherwise, if Zhu Xuntao had been favored by her,
how could Zhu Dingxing have the courage not to treat Zhu Xuntao as a precious daughter.
You said you were good to her, but you were not. Then you still asked for this and that from her...
The Queen thought she was not such a shameless person.
Especially at the palace banquet before the New Year, the Queen accepted a favor from Zhu Xuntao,
so she was even less confident to ask for anything in front of Zhu Xuntao.
"Sister-in-law, please stop teasing me."
The Queen was disappointed:
"Okay, that's your grandson. You, the grandmother, are not anxious, so why should I be anxious?"
"That's right."
Jiang Yijing had expected that the Queen would give up, and she stopped teasing her.
"Jing Zhan has already told me and the Marquis that the child will be born in a few years."
"Taotao is not that old now. Isn't she also a child?"
"When she was in the mansion, no one loved her or took care of her. When she came to the Marquis's Mansion, we must let her know what it feels like to be loved by someone." "
After she has lived a few years of being a child who is loved by someone, her heart will be warm, and she will naturally take the initiative to have a child."
This order must not be messed up.
"Okay."
The Queen nodded.
"We should treat Zhu Xuntao as a child first. When she is happy, she will understand that she wants to be a mother."
In this way, the Queen has no objection to Zhu Xuntao having children in a few years.
It is true that Zhu Xuntao has never had a child, and
now she is urged to give birth, which is really embarrassing for Zhu Xuntao.
"Your Majesty is so kind. Taotao is blessed to have such consideration from you."
Jiang Yijing flattered the Queen on behalf of Zhu Xuntao, vowing to make the Queen happier.
She didn't mind more powerful people like the Queen protecting Zhu Xuntao.
The more people who protect Zhu Xuntao, the easier it will be for Zhu Xuntao to warm up.
By then, won't her grandchildren come?
Anyway, the Empress and the Yongjing Marquis's family were also one family, so her little thoughts were nothing.
"Sister-in-law, you are so mean..."
After all, they had a very close relationship, almost like best friends.
Seeing Jiang Yijing's smile, the Queen guessed that her sister-in-law must be plotting against her.
Fortunately, it was harmless and they didn't see each other often, so the Queen didn't bother to argue with Jiang Yijing.
"No matter what, I have to thank the Queen for her help."
Jiang Yijing admitted it without hesitation. The two sisters-in-law chatted and laughed, and their relationship was not much worse than that of Xiao Miluo and Zhu Xuntao.
"Madam Hou, you must have seen the Queen Mother, right?"
When Jiang Yijing came out of the Central Palace with the women in the mansion, she happened to meet the wife of Minister Zhao, Ji.
"Madam Ji, you are here to pay your respects to the Queen Mother as well."
Seeing Madam Ji, Jiang Yijing greeted her as usual.
Half a month ago, Jiang Yijing and Madam Ji were quite familiar with each other, not for any other reason, but because Madam Ji had three daughters.
The eldest daughter had already married and had children, and the second and youngest daughters were unmarried.
Madam Ji's youngest daughter was a little young, so Jiang Yijing had no idea
about her, but she had some ideas about Madam Ji's second daughter.
Because of this little thought, Jiang Yijing's relationship with Madam Ji was pretty good, after all, they were almost ready for marriage.
"Xiangyue, Xiangyao, why don't you pay your respects to Madam Hou and the Crown Prince's Consort?"
Madam Ji asked the two daughters who followed her to come forward and meet everyone.
"Xiangyue\/Xiangyao, I have met the Marquis's wife and the Crown Prince's wife."
The two charming little girls were dressed up like gorgeous flowers, not only beautiful but also fresh.
