Chapter 177 Returning Home (2)
When Ning Fu saw Madam Ning frowning, she knew she was worried, so she said, "I mentioned this in front of the prince."
"How did the prince react?" Madam Ning asked hurriedly.
"He didn't say anything. He went and personally instructed the maid who was originally in charge to teach Dongxue." Ning Fu said.
Madam Ning relaxed and couldn't help but smile: "The prince is really thinking about you."
If he were to talk about this matter, even if the maid was unhappy, she would not blame Nymph. Servants have always been loyal to their old masters and would not bear grudges, but this might not be the case with new masters.
Ning Fu thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Don't worry about me, mother. If I am wronged, I will not hold it in and will write to tell you."
Madam Ning nodded with some concern and sighed. Her daughter had only been married for a few days and she had no appetite for the past few days.
Having a daughter is good in every way, except that she has to get married.
But seeing that Zong Si cared about her, Mrs. Ning was still very happy.
"Go see your grandmother." Mrs. Ning said.
Old Madam Ning had been waiting for Ning Fu since early morning. She smiled and asked her all sorts of questions. Now that Prince Xuan's Mansion was her granddaughter's husband's family, Old Madam Ning was also curious.
Not long after the two of them sat there, Zong Si also came to Qinyuan.
"Grandmother." The man bowed.
Zong Si took off his cloak at this time, and stood tall and straight. His original strong aura was now restrained in front of his elders. From Nymph's perspective, his face was just right. If he was taller or shorter, he would never be so handsome.
If he wasn't so aloof on weekdays, I can't imagine how popular he would be.
"The prince is here." Old Madam Ning looked at her grandson-in-law and was naturally more and more satisfied. "The prince must be exhausted these days. Don't stand."
Zong Si sat down next to Ning Fu.
Ning Fu was eating lotus dumpling soup. He took a look at it and naturally took a sip from her bowl with her spoon.
"It's a bit sweet." She remembered that he didn't like sweets.
"It's okay." Zong Si said.
Ningfu pushed the bowl to him, as she didn't feel like drinking anymore.
Zong Si took it easily.
"If the prince likes it, I'll ask Ruyi to order another bowl." Mrs. Ning said
"Grandma, don't bother. I'll just eat A-Fu's." Zong Si said.
Even if a couple is very close, it is rare for them to share a bowl like this, and it is even more so when they are outside. This shows that the prince is close to Afu, and it also shows that he does not regard the Duke's Mansion as an outsider. Old Lady Ning couldn't help but smile.
"If Afu does anything wrong in the future, I hope the prince will be more tolerant of her." said Old Lady Ning.
"The princess raised in the Duke's Mansion is very sensible. Afu is tolerant and generous, so grandma can rest assured." Zong Si said.
Hearing this, Old Lady Ning became even happier, as it was the Duke's Mansion that was being elevated.
Zong Si chatted with Old Lady Ning and glanced at Ning Fu from time to time. The latter was quiet and did not interrupt. She only stuffed a piece of cake into Zong Si's mouth when he said something she didn't want to hear.
Zong Si would no longer mention that topic.
And there was a hint of smile in his eyes, as if he was teasing her on purpose.
Wei felt an indescribable feeling in her heart, but she had never expected that Zong Si would treat Ning Fu in this way. It was not like his usual cold attitude at all, but rather very indulgent.
Wei thought that no matter what, the prince should be a superior person. It might not be comfortable to be a husband for such an arrogant man, but now she was very surprised.
She thought of Ning Ran, whose husband had died, and felt so wronged. Compared with Ning Fu, who had just gotten married and was loved by her husband, there was a world of difference between them.
Wei thought, maybe it was because they had just gotten married. Everyone is like this when they get married. Wei Xiao had always been very good to his daughter.
When it was time for dinner, Wei's mood became even more complicated. Although the Prince and Ninfu did not say a few words, the Prince was always paying attention to what Ninfu wanted to eat and would serve the dishes for her.
This was clearly something a servant should do, but he did it himself, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with serving Afu.
Madam Ning and Ning Zhenyuan pretended not to see anything.
Old Mrs. Ning smiled but said nothing.
Ning Fu herself felt a little embarrassed and said, "Sir, please let Dongzhu come."
Zong Si said in a deep voice: "I am your husband, what's wrong with me doing these things?"
Nymph said: "My mother would think that I am bullying you."
Zong Si looked up at her, then looked at Madam Ning and said, "Mother-in-law only hopes that you and I can live a good life. She would never interfere with how we get along."
Old Madam Ning nodded and said, "Your top priority is to give me a big fat boy. The rest is your business. As elders, we will not interfere."
Mrs. Ning's thoughts were simple. If Afu gave birth to a son, her position in Prince Xuan's Mansion would be secure in the future. Otherwise, things would become uncertain over time. Aran was a lesson learned.
When talking about children, Zong Si looked at Ning Fu a little longer, but he wanted a daughter more. There were very few princesses in the palace. If he had a daughter, he could teach her personally since she was young, which would be very interesting.
"Whether Afu gives birth to a daughter or a son in the future, it's the same to me." Zong Si said. He showed no bias.
This was also because they did not want to put pressure on Nymph. Many women suffered a lot when it came to the issue of offspring and only hoped to have a son.
These words moved both Mrs. Wei and Madam Ning to some extent. After all, at that time, the family business still relied on men to inherit, so when it came to the issue of offspring, most men hoped to have a son.
After Wei gave birth to Ning Yu, her second child was a daughter. Ning Zhenxiu originally wanted her to give birth to a son. Wei felt extremely pressured at the time. Later, Ning Zhenxiu stopped touching her and no longer asked her to give birth to another son.
Ning Fu had mixed feelings in her heart. Even in her previous life, Zong Si had never made things difficult for her regarding offspring and had never asked her to give birth to a son.
Madam Ning comforted her, "Yes, the young master and the lady are equally good. My A-Fu and A-Zheng are the same to me."
The dowry she prepared for her daughter was no less than that for her son.
Now that Zong Si has become the son-in-law of the Duke's Mansion, it is legitimate for him to come to Ning Fu's bedroom. Even though Ning Fu married into the prince's palace, the Bamboo Garden is still taken care of every day and is kept in good order.
Zong Si was flipping through the book she had left on the table. It was a picture book about love, but she put it aside after reading only a few pages.
Everything in the bamboo garden was arranged neatly, and there were many decorative curtains and ornaments, all of which were very cute.
"Prince, please don't mess with my things." Ning Fu was a little obsessive-compulsive about this.
Zong Si sat down beside her bed, his nose filled with the scent of gardenia, and his heart began to stir.
Ning Fu couldn't stand him sitting on her bed without changing his clothes, so she quickly pulled him up and said, "Sir, please sit somewhere else."
Zong Si exerted a little force, and she fell into his arms instead. He said: "Let's go back to the palace tomorrow and have a daughter."
