Lu Baozhu sneered, walked around the rockery and came to the mother and son of the Shen family, and said proudly: "This princess is the Princess Baozhu, personally appointed by His Majesty, the most precious pearl of Dasheng. I am of royal blood. If I were of humble origin, what would your Shen family be to me?
What era is it now? Are you still proud of your noble bloodline from a thousand-year-old family?
Bah! You are just commoners in Shengjing City. You have to bow and salute when you see this princess, otherwise it would be a great disrespect to the imperial power!
Before you say I'm of humble origin, why don't you look in the mirror and see how big your face is!
Qi Yuning clapped his hands behind Lu Baozhu and said, "Well said. You two don't even show respect when you see the princess?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Shen Yang Yingchun clenched her hands tightly and bowed to Lu Baozhu in front of her unwillingly, saying, "Greetings, Princess Lu."
Shen Jialin looked at the arrogant Lu Baozhu in front of him and saluted, "Greetings to Princess Lu and Princess Qi."
Lu Baozhu snorted softly, took Lingling's hand and said, "Let's go!"
After Lu Baozhu left, Yang Yingchun's dignified face turned ashen. She glared at Shen Jialin and said, "As long as I'm alive, you will never be able to enter the Shen family."
Shen Jialin looked at Lu Baozhu's back and sighed softly.
After Lu Baozhu left the gate of the Shen Mansion, she smiled at Qi Yuning: "Hahaha, did you see the expression on Madam Shen's face just now? Her dignified face turned ashen.
There are so many strange things happening these days. I’ve lived for almost twenty years, but I never thought that one day I would be said to be of humble origin!
If I didn't have Mr. Qingqi in my heart, I would have to ask my grandfather to let me marry Shen Jialin, which would have pissed off his mother to death, hahahaha!"
Qi Yuning smiled lightly and shook her head, "Even if Qingqi wasn't there, you can't marry him just because of this. Don't you dislike Shen Jialin?"
Lu Baozhu said, "I really don't like him, but if marrying him can make his mother embarrassed, then I'll be happy."
Qi Yuning rubbed his forehead and chuckled helplessly, "You."
Lu Baozhu said, "Why do the Shen family look down on others like this? It's because my grandfather is kind and doesn't bother with them. Just based on the fact that they amassed wealth during these troubled times, they should have been dealt with long ago."
Qi Yuning said, "It's not that easy to deal with them, but they are living in a corner, so it's better to have less trouble than more."
…
Qi Yuning hadn't taken Lingling out for several days. Today was a rare day for them to go out, so Lingling thought of going to the pastry shop to buy some pastries.
Qi Yuning took Lingling to the pastry shop and ordered the wedding cakes for the wedding.
Lingling bought a lot of cakes and said to Qi Yuning, "Mom, take some cakes to Dad."
Qi Yuning thought about it and realized that she hadn't seen Lu Ze for several days, so she asked her maid to bring some cakes and went to the Dali Temple to look for Lu Ze.
As soon as I entered, I saw a woman coming out of Lu Ze's study.
Liu Qingqing saluted Qi Yuning and said, "Princess Qi."
Qi Yuning looked at Liu Qingqing, narrowed her eyes, and recognized that the woman in front of her was the cousin of the Liu family who Madam Lu said she would give to Lu Ze as a concubine.
What is she doing in the Dali Temple?
Lingling carried the pastries in, and Qi Yuning saw Lu Ze drinking a bowl of hot lotus seed soup.
Qi Yuning said, "Thank goodness Lingling still remembers you and wants to send you some cakes. She even carried such a heavy food box all the way in. It turns out that Master Lu's beautiful cousin has already sent you lotus seed soup."
Lu Ze drank half of the lotus seed soup and paused. "My mother just had the maid bring this lotus seed soup. She just left. Where did this cousin come from? Do you want to try it?"
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and asked, "You said that the woman who just left your study was the princess's maid?"
Lu Ze said, "The maid who brought the food box didn't look closely, but this lotus seed soup was indeed made by my mother. I can taste it."
Qi Yuning snorted softly, "Isn't that the person just now Liu Qingqing, the concubine your grandmother wanted to give to you? Don't tell me you don't even recognize your own cousin!"
Lu Ze said, "I really didn't pay attention to what the maid who brought the snacks looked like. If your maid brought you a food box, would you pay attention to her appearance?"
Qi Yuning suddenly felt angry and said, "I'll keep an eye on it."
"Actually, Lu Ze, I don't mind you taking a concubine. I really don't mind. I'm not the kind of person who can't tolerate others. I'm not like Lu Baozhu who can't accept her husband taking a concubine. I don't mind you taking ten or a hundred, but you can't let your grandmother's cousin be a concubine!"
Qi Yuning said, "The wedding date is approaching. If you really want to be a filial grandson and take Liu Qingqing as your concubine, then we should just call off the engagement. This will save me from the hassle of getting married and ending up with nothing!"
Lu Ze frowned and said, "I didn't mean to be a filial grandson. I had no idea it was Liu Qingqing who brought the food box. If she knew I wouldn't let her in, I would have thought it was the maid from the princess's mansion who brought the snacks."
Qi Yuning sneered, "Such a big man brought a food box in, and you still say you didn't see it? You know what this princess hates most is people who dare to do things but not take responsibility!"
Lingling looked at Lu Ze, then at Qi Yuning, then looked up at Qi Yuning and said, "Mom and Dad, please don't quarrel. Lingling, be good. Mom and Dad, please don't quarrel."
Qi Yuning picked up Lingling and touched her head: "Mom didn't quarrel with Dad."
Lingling blinked her peach blossom eyes and asked, "Really?"
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Well, Daddy and Mommy are not arguing, let's go home."
Lingling looked at Lu Ze and said, "Daddy hasn't eaten the cake yet!"
