Chapter 30 You Don't Deserve to Wear the Clothes I Make
Fu Anran blushed as she listened to the silence in the room. There was music playing and her voice was loud, but now it was heard by all the guests. Fu Anran felt very embarrassed.
Gu Yan looked at Fu Anran and said, "Well, my wife is more beautiful than you."
Fu Anran's face turned even redder. She clenched the basket of birthday peaches in her hand, her eyes red.
Fu Qianran, who was sitting at the head of the table, smiled and said, "The Prince of Ning's wife is so beautiful? It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see her."
Gu Yan said: "After my wife recovers from her illness, I will bring her to your house to bother you."
Fu Qianran smiled faintly, "The fact that the Crown Prince's Consort can come to our Fu Mansion brings honor to our humble residence, and it is not considered a nuisance."
With Fu Qianran's help, Fu Anran continued to distribute birthday peaches to other guests in the hall. When she passed by Wei Xi, Wei Xi smiled at her.
Fu Anran had always been at odds with Wei Xi, and when he saw the slight mockery in Wei Xi's eyes, he became even more angry.
After the birthday banquet, Fu Anran did not go to the garden to watch the play with her grandmother. She went straight back to her room and threw herself on the pillow of the small couch and cried. She was really embarrassed today.
"younger sister."
Fu Anran heard Fu Qianran's voice and turned around and called out, "Sister."
Fu Qianran gently wiped Fu Anran's tears and said, "There are many beautiful women out there, why do you have to hang yourself on Gu Yan's tree? With your looks, you should be pursued and loved by all the gentlemen, why do you have to stare at Gu Yan?"
Fu Anran wiped her tears and said, "Sister."
Fu Qianran reached out her hand to wipe Fu Anran's tears and said, "Stop crying. You've heard that Gu Yan only has his wife in his heart now. You're already nineteen years old. You can't delay your marriage any longer. You should find a good husband as soon as possible. Gu Yan is not the only good man in the world. There is also Gu Yan's cousin, Xie Shi'an, the son of Prince Wu..."
Fu Anran pouted and said, "Xie Shian's mother was a skinny singing girl before. I don't want such a mother-in-law. Sister, you will enter the East Palace as the Crown Princess in April, but you want me to marry the son of the Xie family's young master and singing girl. What are you thinking?"
Fu Qianran tapped Fu Anran's forehead angrily, "You really only have such a pretty face. If you count Xie Shian, he is still the Crown Prince's cousin. How has he ever wronged you?"
Fu Anran snorted lightly: "My cousin should have the surname Zhao. His surname is Xie. His father is just your majesty's half brother, not the little prince of the Zhao family."
Fu Qianran said: "I say you are stupid, you are really stupid, it would be better if you had the surname Xie, Xie Shian and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are related by blood from the same grandmother, but the world has the surname Zhao, if you change to a little prince with the surname Zhao, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not dare to trust him so much.
Now His Highness trusts Xie Shian very much. If Gu Yan is the Crown Prince's left arm, then Xie Shian is His Highness the Crown Prince's right arm.
Xie Shian is also very handsome. If it weren't for the fact that your mother's family background was not good, you wouldn't even be able to get married."
Fu Anran said: "If you really think Xie Shian is good, why don't you marry her?"
Fu Qianran took a deep breath and really didn’t want to pay attention to this silly sister who couldn’t even speak.
God is fair after all. Fu Anran's stunningly beautiful face must have been earned by using her brain.
When Fu Qianran was about to go to the stage in the courtyard, she met Zhu Zhen who was rushing over.
Zhu Zhen hurriedly bowed to Fu Qianran and said, "Miss."
Fu Qianran frowned as she looked at Zhu Zhen standing in front of her and said, "There are many guests in the mansion today. How dare you come to the Fu family so rashly? If you have any news, just let Yingying pass it in."
The man Zhu Zhen married was originally a servant of the Fu family. After he was promoted to a lower-class citizen, he became a ninth-rank official with the help of the Fu family.
Zhu Zhen's younger sister Zhu Yingying married a cousin from a branch of Fu Qianran's maternal family.
Both marriages were facilitated by Fu Qianran. The Eastern Palace was like an iron wall, and only Zhu Zhen could be used to obtain secret information about the Eastern Palace.
Zhu Zhen lowered her voice and said, "Crown Princess, I really shouldn't have come here today, but I just learned of something important."
Fu Qianran raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhu Zhen: "What's the matter?"
Zhu Zhen leaned close to Fu Qianran's ear and said, "The Prince Consort of Prince Ning is actually the cousin of that vixen Ye Wanhe."
Fu Qianran frowned, and she added: "This is not a big deal."
Zhu Zhen said: "That vixen Ye Wanhe was pregnant with your child before. If she gives birth to a grandson, Princess Sheng Zhao and Prince Ning may help her. Then you..."
Fu Qianran's face turned grim. She took off a glass bracelet in her hand and gave it to Zhu Zhen, saying, "Go down."
Zhu Zhen took the bracelet and hurriedly thanked him.
Fu Qianran's trusted maid said, "Miss, you are finally going to be able to enter the East Palace as the Crown Princess, but Ye Wanhe is actually the cousin of the Ning Wang's Crown Princess... In the future, it is inevitable that the vixen Ye will compete with you and your future young master..."
Fu Qianran frowned and said, "Don't mention this matter again."
As soon as Fu Qianran entered the garden, she saw a bright yellow corner of clothing. She stepped forward and saluted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhao Yun looked at Fu Qianran and nodded, without saying a few words to the Crown Princess who was about to enter the Eastern Palace, and left.
Fu Qianran looked at Zhao Yun's back, then calmly went to Old Madam Fu to listen to the opera on the stage.
--
After finishing lunch, Yun Xiangye continued to chat with her cousin for a long time, talking about their childhood memories and telling her cousin about the current situation of their childhood friends.
Until I heard the sound of greetings to His Highness coming from outside.
Yun Xiangye picked up the sleeping Nuonuo and said, "Cousin, I have to go now. You must take good care of yourself. After the New Year, I will go to the temple to pray to the gods and Buddhas to reward you and let you leave the palace as soon as possible."
Ye Wanhe chuckled and said, "You should take good care of yourself too."
After Yun Xiangye and Ye Wanhe reluctantly said goodbye, she carried Nuonuo outside and saw Zhao Yun wearing a bright yellow dragon-patterned dress. She hurriedly held Nuonuo and saluted Zhao Yun, "Your Highness."
Zhao Yun looked at Nuonuo who was sleeping in Yun Xiangye's arms and said, "It's still a long way to get out of the palace. I'll have someone bring a sedan chair. You can ride in it and leave."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Yun Xiangye saw that the sedan chair in the East Palace was extremely luxurious, and the pearls on the curtains were all large sea pearls.
Yun Xiangye carried Nuonuo all the way back to Qingfeng Garden, and Nuonuo woke up as soon as she got home.
Gu Yan heard Nuonuo's voice in the courtyard, and quickly walked to the door and took Nuonuo from Yun Xiangye's arms, "You stayed in the East Palace for a day?"
Yun Xiangye looked at Nuonuo in Gu Yan's arms, sighed, and returned to her room.
Yun Xiangye was lying on the small couch, sewing new clothes for Nuonuo for the Chinese New Year. It was only five or six days away from the Chinese New Year, so she had just enough time to sew a new dress for Nuonuo.
Gu Yan held Nuonuo and sat next to Yun Xiangye and said, "I don't think you have made new clothes for me this year?"
Yun Xiangye raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan, and said angrily: "What do you think of me? Am I your embroiderer? If you want new clothes, you can just ask the embroiderers in the mansion to make them for you. I will not waste my time and energy to embroider clothes for you. You are not worthy of wearing the clothes I make."
Gu Yan listened to Yun Xiangye's unfriendly tone and frowned, "I don't deserve it, but Zhao Jing deserves it, right?"
Yun Xiangye glared at Gu Yan and said, "So in your eyes, I am this kind of unfaithful woman? Who is the one who attracts so many cousins and junior sisters? I listened to you and will not go to the Fu family to see Zhao Jing today, but you still misunderstood me like this..."
Gu Yan put Xiao Nuonuo down, looked at the tears in Yun Xiangye's eyes and said, "I just said it casually, do you have to be so angry?"
Yun Xiangye looked at Gu Yan with tearful eyes and said, "Shouldn't I be angry?"
Gu Yanping said calmly, "Can you ever stop quarreling with me for a day? You were not like this when we were in Fangqiao Town."
Yun Xiangye at that time was not like she is now. She always spoke softly and gently. When she saw him coming back home, she would throw herself into his arms and call him husband softly in the soft Jiangnan accent...
It's not like now, being cold and angry towards him.
Yun Xiangye said, "Because when we were in Fangqiao Town, you were just my husband, but now you are the son of the eldest princess and the prince of Ning, and you are no longer my previous husband."
Gu Yan reluctantly hugged Yun Xiangye into his arms and said, "Why not anymore? I am still your husband, please stop making trouble, okay? The New Year is not long away, and Nuonuo will soon be two years old. Can't you be more peaceful? You don't want Nuonuo to see his parents quarreling all day long during the New Year, right?"
Yun Xiangye gently wiped away the tears from her eyes. Until now, all Gu Yan had done was for Nuo Nuo.
In his eyes, even if she was so angry that she fell ill, it was not as important as having a peaceful New Year.
