In fact, she didn't dress too formally today. She just wore a lilac summer shirt with a white lace skirt. At first glance, she looked bright, charming and gentle.
"Aunt knows that with so many things going on at home, you're not in the mood to celebrate your birthday, but how can I bear to let you have such a casual birthday? A girl's days at her parents' home are numbered. If you celebrate your birthday at home this year, you might spend it somewhere else next year."
Zhang felt a little sad when she talked about this.
She has a daughter and is more sensitive to the issue of girls getting married.
Jiang Mingzhi listened and felt a little warm in her heart. She knew that with her aunt's personality, she would definitely not ignore her. She might even be thinking of finding a husband for her. But she had no such thoughts at all. She just did what her aunt said just to please her.
"Aunt, will I become alienated from you if I'm not at home? We are always a family!"
She really liked Zhang, so when facing Zhang, she was less wary and more genuinely intimate.
People are all mutual. She is willing to be close to her aunt, so how could her aunt not feel it? Upon hearing this, she reached out and touched her head, tucked the broken hair behind her ears, and smiled dotingly, "You child!"
Everyone was having a great time here, but Wang Hanzhang, who was entertaining guests in the front yard, looked uneasy.
After hearing what the housekeeper said, he took the opportunity to leave temporarily for something.
There were quite a few people who came to the mansion to congratulate today. These people actually wanted to find an excuse to establish a relationship with the Wang family. No matter what the title was, as long as they could have a say, it would be fine. Wang Hanzhang had expected this, but the situation still exceeded his expectations.
He returned to the study and looked at the gift sent by the butler, which also included a stamp from Prince Jin's Mansion. His forehead couldn't help but throb.
He could understand those who were not as well-off as the Wang family, or who were equally powerful, giving gifts, but the Jin Palace was the royal family, so there was no need for them to do the same as these people and curry favor with the Wang family by giving gifts. What's more, this gift was personally delivered by Jin Princess's people, which was even more meaningful.
"What else did the old woman say?"
The housekeeper bowed his head and replied, "Master, the maid said that Princess Jin and our cousin are very close. They once played polo together at Daxiangguo Temple. However, we didn't expect Princess Jin to be pregnant, and we didn't have time to tell our cousin. Today is our cousin's birthday, and this is a little gift from the Princess."
Wang Hanzhang's brows tightened when he heard this. When did that child Xuanxuan become close to Prince Jin's Mansion? How come he didn't know?
Thinking that he had to talk to the person involved about this matter and get clarification, Wang Hanzhang did not hesitate and directly sent someone to Zhang with the gifts from Prince Jin's Mansion.
Hearing that her husband was coming at this time, Zhang was a little surprised. She felt that something had happened, so she adjusted her temples and came out to greet him in person.
"Where's that child, 妧妧?"
Zhang replied that Wang Hanzhang was inside. Zhang followed closely behind him and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
Seeing his wife's expression, Wang Hanzhang realized that he was too nervous. He relaxed his expression and said to Zhang, "No, I just have something I want to ask the child."
He pointed to the tray held by the butler behind him and said, "The concubine of Prince Jin's mansion sent something over, and also brought a message to the child, Xuanxuan. I thought it might be something complicated, so I thought I'd ask."
