The little boy nestled in his nanny Jiang's arms and immediately sensed her displeasure. He then clung to her arm, whining and asking, "Nanny, what's wrong?"
What's wrong? Looking at her silly little princess, Nanny Jiang frowned even more.
Hua Xiao, as the playmate, would only play with the little princess after breakfast in the morning. Since she was new to the area, if the little princess woke up and wanted to play with her, she would naturally send someone to call her.
Why is she running around like this so early in the morning?
Ha, coming to have dinner with the little princess? Does she really think everyone else is a fool?!
She came all this way to the main hall of Xiaochen Palace, pretending to have dinner with the little princess. What she really wanted to do was accompany the crown prince!
This is because they were rebuffed by the Fifth Prince yesterday, and then turned their attention to His Highness the Crown Prince.
Jiang, the wet nurse, let out a deep breath, suppressing the disgust in her eyes. Looking at her innocent and naive little ancestor, she sighed softly.
"Little princess, finish your meal first." Nanny Jiang didn't mention Hua Xiao at all, but just glared at the little girl with a stern face and tone.
The Prince of Hengchang did not require that people not talk while eating, but he did not allow his children to play during meals.
The little girl was a well-behaved and obedient child. She thought that her nanny just didn't want Hua Xiao to come in and play with her during mealtimes.
So when the wet nurse scolded him, he had no choice but to puff out his little cheeks and obediently ate the fish porridge that the wet nurse fed him.
After finishing her breakfast, the little girl finally got her wish and let her older sister, Hua Xiao, come in to play with her.
When Hua Xiao entered the room, the little baby was playing with her toy on the tatami mat.
Hua Xiao looked up and saw the little baby on the soft couch. Her gaze didn't linger, but instead quietly swept around the room.
Not seeing the person she hoped to see, her lowered eyes dimmed, and the cheerful pace she took towards the little boy suddenly lost its initial joy.
Hua Xiao, who was looking down in disappointment, did not notice that the little boy's eager gaze when she entered the room had now turned into one of confusion and slight sadness.
Although the little one doesn't have the complicated thoughts of adults, she is most sensitive to people's emotions.
When Hua Xiao entered, the little boy heard the noise and immediately looked up happily, his dimples sinking in softly, his joy at Hua Xiao's arrival pure and simple.
Clearly, Hua Xiao didn't take the little boy's welcome to heart; she didn't care about him. Ignored, neglected, disappointed… the little boy felt it all clearly.
Jiang the wet nurse and Zhuangyou silently observed everything. They exchanged a glance, their gazes turning even colder as they looked at Hua Xiao, but they said nothing and simply watched.
Hua Xiao didn't notice anything unusual about the little girl. She walked up to her, sat down next to her, looked up, and smiled shyly as she had yesterday. "Little princess, what are you playing?"
Hua Xiao thought that a three-year-old baby was like a little fool and very easy to coax.
It seems she has forgotten who rescued her from human traffickers yesterday.
Perhaps after Huo Chengche appeared yesterday, she forgot who saved her, only remembering that it was that aloof and noble young man who saved her.
Now, the three-year-old fool in her eyes is clearly feeling her perfunctory attitude and coaxing.
"Sister Hua Xiao, you didn't come here to play with Niannian, did you? You came here to play with Crown Prince, didn't you?"
