Lu Baozhu sneered, walked around the rockery and came to the mother and son of the Shen family, and said proudly: "I am the Princess Baozhu, personally appointed by His Majesty, the most precious pearl of Dasheng. I am of royal blood. If I were born in a humble family, what would your Shen family be?
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. When you see this princess, you have to bow and salute, otherwise it would be a great disrespect to the imperial power!
Before you say I'm of humble origins, 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. Why don't you two show respect to the princess?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Shen Yang Yingchun clenched her hands tightly, and reluctantly bowed to Lu Baozhu in front of her and said, "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, and she glared at Shen Jialin and said, "As long as I am alive, you will never be able to enter my 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 Mrs. Shen's face just now? Her dignified face turned ashen.
There are so many strange things these days. I have lived for almost twenty years, but I never thought that one day people would say that I was 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, hahaha!"
Qi Yuning smiled lightly and shook her head, "Even if Qingqi wasn't there, you can't just get married 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, I will be happy."
Qi Yuning rubbed his forehead and chuckled helplessly, "You."
Lu Baozhu said, "Why do the Shen family look down on people like this? It's also because my grandfather is kind and doesn't bother with them. Just because they made money during the troubled times, they should have been punished long ago."
Qi Yuning said: "It's not that easy to deal with them, but they are safe 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 bowed to Qi Yuning and said, "Princess Qi."
Qi Yuning looked at Liu Qingqing, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she recognized the woman in front of her. Wasn't she the cousin from the Liu family who Old 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, "It's a good thing Lingling still cares about 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 asked the maid to 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 said, "You said that the woman who just walked out of 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, "Isn't that 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 if you want to take 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 if you take 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 you and I should just cancel the engagement. This will save me from being busy with the wedding and ending up with nothing!"
Lu Ze frowned and said, "I didn't want to be a filial grandson. I didn't even know 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 that 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. Dad and Mom, please don't quarrel."
Qi Yuning picked up Lingling and touched her head: "Mom didn't quarrel with Dad."
Lingling blinked her small peach blossom eyes and asked, "Really?"
Qi Yuning nodded and said, "Well, Daddy and Mommy are not quarreling, let's go home."
Lingling looked at Lu Ze and said, "Daddy hasn't eaten the cake yet!"
Qi Yuning said coldly: "He has snacks sent by his sister Liu, why does he need to eat the cakes we sent?"
Lingling said disappointedly: "But Lingling took a long time to choose."
"Qi Yuning!" Lu Ze said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the child."
Qi Yuning ignored Lu Ze and went outside holding Lingling.
Lu Zelian walked forward and instructed Lichun behind Qi Yuning, "Take Lingling and walk around the government office. Yuning, let's have a good talk!"
Qi Yuning handed Ling Ling in her arms to Lichun, looked at Lu Ze and said, "What do you want to talk about? Is there anything else to talk about?"
After Lichun took Lingling downstairs.
Lu Ze took Qi Yuning's hand and led her to a small room nearby.
Qi Yuning saw that the small room only had a small bed, which should be used as a place for officials from the Dali Temple to rest temporarily.
After the door was closed, Lu Ze pushed Qi Yuning against it and said, "I really didn't know that it was Liu Qingqing who brought the food box. If I knew, I wouldn't let her put down the food box. As for why the snacks my mother sent to me were sent by Liu Qingqing, I will find out after I return home."
Lu Ze lowered his eyes to look into Qi Yuning's eyes, "If I really wanted to be a filial grandson, I wouldn't have angered my grandmother again and again. I will never take a concubine, you can rest assured."
Qi Yuning said unhappily: "If you want to take a concubine, then do it. No one is stopping you!"
When Lu Ze heard Qi Yuning's words, he was even more annoyed than her. He lowered his head and bit Qi Yuning's lips hard.
Qi Yuning frowned in pain and pushed Lu Ze away, "Don't bite it, it will be difficult to dress up on the wedding day."
Lu Ze smiled helplessly, reached out and touched Qi Yuning's lips and said, "I've been very busy these days. It's not me who has no time to accompany you, but don't let your imagination run wild. You and I have known each other since you were born. Am I not worthy of your trust?"
Lu Ze lowered his head and kissed Qi Yuning's lips. After a long while, he said, "Don't be jealous."
Qi Yuning raised her eyes and looked at Lu Ze, "I'm not jealous."
Lu Ze chuckled and held Qi Yuning in his arms and said, "Not yet?"
Qi Yuning said: "No, I'm really not jealous, I just think you don't need to lie to me, such a big person is in front of you, but you didn't recognize her as your cousin.
Lu Ze, if one day you regret marrying me and want to divorce me, tell me earlier. I am not the kind of person who can't let go, so you don't need to hide it from me.
Even if you change your mind in the future, as long as you tell me, I will leave you without regret. I am not as petty and vindictive as you think. "
The words "no regrets" deeply hurt Lu Ze's ears.
Lu Ze said: "You will never have the chance to withdraw without regrets in this life!"
Qi Yuning said: "I have to go."
Lu Ze said, "Stay with me for another half an hour. I will go back with you today to ask why the lotus seed soup my mother gave me was sent by Liu Qingqing."
