Princess Su Yingxue doesn't always have time for her own handicrafts.
As a typical residence in the Great Gan Dynasty where men were in charge of external affairs and women were in charge of internal affairs, all matters of the court were decided by Lu Jingze.
All matters within the manor, regardless of their importance, must be decided by Princess Su Yingxue; Lu Jingze never interferes.
Every morning, Su Yingxue had to get up early to listen to the reports from the housekeeper and servants and learn about all the affairs of the household.
Then they inquired about more details to ensure that everything in the household was in order.
Occasionally, it is necessary to review the accounts, summon the manager of the estate, verify the accounts, and determine the future business strategy.
In short, all these complicated matters in the Prince's mansion need to be decided by her.
The morning light shone through the carved window lattice, further highlighting her weary expression.
At this moment, Su Yingxue was dressed in an expensive robe, her posture dignified, her eyes focused on examining the account book in her hands.
Today is the middle of the month, the day Su Yingxue summons the managers of the shops and estates outside the Prince's mansion to settle accounts.
Seeing that Wang Xiuxiu had arrived early, Su Yingxue nodded and told her to go inside and sit down first.
Logically speaking, since the princess exempted her from the early morning greetings, she could sleep until she naturally woke up as usual.
But which concubine doesn't get up early to pay her respects to the mistress?
Xiaoying told her that there were people gossiping outside, trying to ruin the reputation of the princess and Wang Xiuxiu.
It is said that Wang Xiuxiu was the favorite concubine of the Prince's mansion, and even the Princess had to avoid her and could not order her to get up early to pay her respects.
Wang Xiuxiu was the first to object to her boss, Tianci, causing trouble!
But getting up early is just too difficult.
So they consulted with Granny Li and confirmed the plan to pay their respects to the Princess Consort on the first and fifteenth of each month.
In this way, Wang Xiuxiu only had to sleep in for two less days, which would not only dispel the rumors that she was spoiled and arrogant, but also leave the Princess with a reputation for being kind and generous. It was a win-win situation.
The maid brought tea and snacks.
"Your Majesty hasn't had breakfast yet, has she?" Wang Xiuxiu asked.
"Not yet, they said they'd wait until they met the steward before sharing it with you, Madam."
"That's perfect. I brought some snacks. Once Your Highness has finished her business, could you please heat them up for us so we can have an extra dish?"
After saying this, he instructed Xiaoying to hand the food box to the maid in the main courtyard.
Su Yingxue really enjoyed dining with Wang Xiuxiu.
This girl loves to eat and knows how to eat well, and she always likes to tinker with some strange and unusual things.
Most importantly, she eats with such gusto that just watching her makes you want to eat a few more bites.
When it was almost time for breakfast, the princess had not yet returned, but instead ran into the young prince who had come to pay his respects.
According to her status, Wang Xiuxiu first curtsied and greeted Su Yunian.
Su Yunian didn't tell her to get up, but just stood with his hands behind his back, curiously looking at her.
Only when the nanny beside him reminded him did he come to his senses. "No need for formalities, get up... get up quickly!"
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Su Yunian sized up Wang Xiuxiu, and Wang Xiuxiu was also staring at him.
The little guy wore a gorgeous brocade robe, and his skin was as white as mutton fat jade, with a faint blush.
It's so soft and squishy, it looks like it would be super easy to squeeze.
Wang Xiuxiu tried hard to suppress her restless heart, secretly hiding her hands behind her back, afraid that she would not be able to resist rebelling.
The young master, who was as delicate as a porcelain doll, had no idea that Wang Xiuxiu was thinking so much. He blinked his innocent and clear eyes and thought: This aunt doesn't seem like the bewitching monster that his classmates in the academy talked about.
As they spent more time together, Wang Xiu grew to like this adorable and polite young gentleman even more.
During the meal, the princess told him that the little pig-shaped bun with custard filling that he loved was made by Wang Xiuxiu herself.
The young prince actually jumped off the chair and bowed to Wang Xiuxiu like a little adult.
Wang Xiuxiu was so shocked that she didn't know what to do and quickly helped the person up.
Although she was a little flustered, Wang Xiuxiu really liked this polite child.
The key thing is that this little guy has a great personality.
She has a touch of arrogance, yet she remains kind and innocent.
Sometimes he's a little shy, but he never gets angry, so Wang Xiuxiu, this quirky auntie, is particularly good at teasing him.
As soon as he finished eating, he ran back to the craft table and waited anxiously with his legs up.
Although he didn't urge her, Wang Xiuxiu could see the longing in his eyes.
Suppressing a laugh, she exchanged a glance with the princess, then quickly walked over to teach him.
Creating three-dimensional wool embossing is much more difficult than creating it on a flat surface.
Even if he has a good temper, he is still a child after all, and even Wang Xiuxiu is worried that he might get impatient.
We were prepared for him to give up halfway, but to our surprise, the young prince was not angry at all despite his repeated failures.
After finally poking out a little head, I happily held it up to show her.
"Auntie, look! I made a little rabbit head!" The little guy's voice was still childish, his little face pouting with joy.
Wang Xiuxiu really wanted to hug him and give him a big kiss!
In the end, all I could do was shower them with compliments to express my affection.
The young prince, embarrassed by the praise, lowered his head shyly and said, "Actually, I'm not that amazing~"
For some reason, Wang Xiuxiu suddenly thought of Lu Jingze.
I don't know what happened to that bastard, he was so lucky to have such a wonderful child.
After thinking it over and over, Wang Xiuxiu felt that it was all thanks to the good education she received from the Princess Consort!
