Su Chenyu witnessed a farce and put down her chopsticks: "I have finished my meal, you can do whatever you want."
Seeing Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing were about to leave, Yao said, "Princess, Prince Consort, will you come with us to meet the guests later?"
"No need. Someone will send the birthday gift over later. This princess and Yan Qing will be here on time for lunch." Su Chenyu glanced at Baili Qi who had been silent. "Besides, with a concubine from the prince's family here, those ladies and young ladies shouldn't be dissatisfied."
Seeing Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing leave, the old lady suddenly felt angry. Nanny Fang said, "Old lady, you ate too much breakfast today. How about I accompany you to help you digest it?"
The old lady glanced at Nanny Fang and nodded.
After the old lady left, the others also dispersed. Aunt Feng walked at the end. At the corner of the corridor, she suddenly overheard the private conversation between Yao and her personal maid Baoqin.
"Baoqin, has the Second Master always been visiting Aunt Rong during this period?"
"Second Madam, you also know that now that Young Master Qiu Hong has become capable, this old master must stay with Aunt Rong for a while longer, right?"
Yao sighed, "In this case, it is really unfair to Concubine Feng. A person still needs to have an heir. Who would have thought that Concubine Rong would turn things around with her son? Concubine Feng was my maid after all. No matter what, I also hope that she can live a good life."
"Second Madam, you are the most considerate to the people in the courtyard. During this period of time, you have finally persuaded the master to visit Aunt Feng more often. If the master does not listen to you, what else can you do? If this continues, Aunt Rong will probably replace you..."
Yao and Baoqin exchanged a few words and then walked away.
Aunt Feng, who had listened to the whole story, felt ripples in her heart. She touched her belly, and a fierce look flashed across her eyes.
On this side, Su Chenyu returned to Beiyuan and asked Nanny Xu to deliver the birthday gift to the old lady.
The person in charge of registering the birthday gifts was Nanny Fang. She sent someone to take over the intact birthday gifts that Nanny Xu had wrapped, and asked, "What did the princess prepare for the old lady? It's so big."
Madam Xu agreed: "The princess has put a lot of thought into the birthday gift she prepared for the old lady this time. The old lady will definitely like it very much."
After seeing off Madam Xu, Madam Fang had the folding screen opened. What caught her eye was a folding screen embroidered with flying needle technique. On it were seven fairies flying in the air, holding longevity peaches in their hands.
This implies that it is indeed very good.
There was a cold flash in Nanny Fang's eyes. If everyone saw the birthday gift that Su Chenyu prepared for the old lady, they would definitely praise her. However, this time, she would not let Su Chenyu get her wish.
Nanny Fang counted the birthday gifts and presented the list to the old lady. The old lady took the list and glanced at it: "How is your contact with Qingxuan going?"
"Ma'am, don't worry."
The old lady closed the gift list and handed it back to Nanny Fang: "This time, there can be no mistakes."
Nanny Fang took the gift list and responded respectfully.
Soon, it was noon and lunch was eaten in the lobby with the people who came to celebrate the birthday.
Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing arrived on time. After lunch, the old lady kept everyone for tea and chat.
"Madam, we all heard that the princess went to Fufeng Town in person to prepare a birthday gift for you. I wonder what gift she prepared? Let us have a look."
The old lady's smile revealed a hint of reluctance. She looked at Su Chenyu and said, "Is this...appropriate?"
Seeing the old lady's difficult expression, everyone suspected that Su Chenyu had not given her anything good. They were even more eager to watch the show: "Old lady, since it's not a birthday gift, why not let us take a look? After all, everyone wants to see the princess's intentions."
