Liu Sisi went to Liu Siping's bridal chamber again. "Third sister-in-law, are you hungry?" As soon as she entered, she saw He Shuting sitting there eating osmanthus pastries in a very casual manner!
This was something Liu Si had prepared for her in advance. When he saw Liu Si go in, he thought her husband had arrived and was hurriedly trying to put the veil on her head!
Upon seeing Liu Sisi, He Shuting immediately removed her veil. "Little sister, you're here! Would you like some osmanthus pastries?" He Shuting greeted her without any hesitation.
"Then let me have a piece to try! Third Sister-in-law, you and Fourth Sister-in-law are such different personalities. I just went to Fourth Sister-in-law's room, and she called me Princess!"
Liu Sisi didn't stand on ceremony and put a piece of osmanthus pastry in her mouth before sitting down at the table to chat with He Shuting.
“My younger sister is timid. She’s been like this since she was little. She’s been too well protected by our family. I’m a bit older than her, and I’ve always been the one protecting her. That’s how she gradually became like this.”
“When I was with my husband, he always mentioned you, his younger sister.”
"In addition, you were the one who spearheaded the founding of the girls' school, and we have all heard about your many achievements. We sisters admire you. My sister is not very good at expressing herself, but she really likes you. She is not being distant with you on purpose. Please don't mind her."
He Shuting handed another piece of osmanthus pastry to Liu Sisi.
“I don’t mind. It’s normal to have different personalities. My third and fourth brothers are so lucky to have found such good wives as you two sisters. I hope my third sister-in-law and third brother will have a baby soon. I’ll be going now.”
Liu Sisi waved her hand, closed the door, and left.
Gu Lingchen picked up Liu Mingzhe and asked, "Xiao Zhe, where is your aunt?"
Hmm? My aunt was just here! I wonder where she is now. Uncle, let's go find her!
"Xiao Zhe, what did you just call me? Can you call me again?" Gu Lingchen was pleased to be called "little uncle".
"Uncle-in-law! Isn't that right? My aunt only goes to visit you in her free time. If you weren't her uncle, why would she care so much about you!"
Liu Mingzhe's pouty lips and knowing-it-all expression almost melted Gu Lingchen's heart.
"What are you two talking about? Why isn't Xiao Zhe in a hurry to eat wedding candy today?"
Liu Sisi's voice came from behind Liu Mingzhe.
"Auntie, I was planning to use the wedding candies, but my uncle kept asking me where you were. I was just about to take him to find you!"
Liu Sisi quickly covered his mouth, "Xiao Zhe, don't talk nonsense! Gu Lingchen and I aren't married yet! You can't call me that, you know?"
"Huh? You can't? Then why did he make me say it again just now!"
Liu Mingzhe stared innocently at Liu Sisi with his big, wide eyes.
"You taught him?" Liu Sisi looked at Gu Lingchen. He immediately put on a smiling face, "Xiao Zhe is right! It was bound to happen sooner or later, it's just a matter of time."
"Look, your third and fourth brothers are all married, and I'm even older than them! When are you going to marry me?"
"No rush, I'm only 14 years old. The earliest I can go is after my coming-of-age ceremony! Besides, I really don't want to stay in the palace every day."
Liu Sisi often thinks about being with Gu Lingchen. Will he really only have her in his harem after he becomes emperor? It seems unlikely, considering that Emperor Yong'an has so many concubines.
"Sisi, I've thought about this too. Give me some more time. I know you don't like being confined within the palace walls every day!"
