Feeling the increasingly stiff chest behind him, Chen Nian reached out and poked Ertai's lower back, offering a reminder.
He silently complained to himself: "It's as hard as a brick."
Listening to the complaints of the person in front of him, Ertai felt even more helpless.
Who is responsible for this?
However, Chen Nian, the person involved, was completely unaware that it was due to his own actions.
Because the two of them had been in contact a lot, Shen Nian didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "Good brother, why don't you let her lean on you?"
Once he finds someone he likes, she should step aside.
Once he gets married, she will give him a big gift to thank him for taking care of her during this time.
She only hoped that she could wait until he got married. Apart from Qing'er, Ertai was the one she missed the most and couldn't put her mind at ease.
After being together for so long, she still wanted to see him find happiness.
As for Xiao Yanzi, she's destined to be the most beloved character, so in the end, she won't have to worry about anything.
"Okay, I'll take you away."
Ertai keenly sensed Shen Nian's emotional fluctuations, silently tightened his hands, freed his hands, and whipped the horse, sending it galloping away at high speed.
Stimulate--!
Wow!
Little Swallow watched the two speeding away and exclaimed in amazement. Not only did Nian Nian like that speed, but she liked it too.
"Yongqi, Banjiu, let's go, let's go after Niannian and Ertai."
Xiao Yanzi spurred her horse and charged off, with Yongqi and Benjamin following closely behind, flanking her on either side.
They didn't think much of what Chen Nian and Ertai were saying; they had seen so much of this before that they couldn't possibly have any ulterior motives.
If Xiao Yanzi had done the same thing, the two of them would have done the same, so they thought it was normal.
The five of them sped across the grassland.
Only Erkang and Ziwei, the two of them, slowly poured out their hearts to each other as they ran.
If Shen Nian were to overhear their conversation, he would definitely complain: "Does it have to be so greasy? What's with all this talk about being full and overflowing? What kind of suggestive language is this? It's so suggestive."
Aren't women in the Qing Dynasty supposed to be very reserved in their speech? But Ziwei is anything but reserved!
The group had a great time in the end.
...
Cining Palace.
"Qing'er, hasn't Niannian come back yet?"
The Empress Dowager was helped to sit down by Qing'er.
"Hmm, no, Niannian is outside the palace learning to ride horses with Xiaoyanzi and the others to prepare for the imperial tour."
When Chen Nian was mentioned, Qing'er's eyes were full of smiles.
Is Ziwei here too?
The Empress Dowager expressed her concerns, worried that Ziwei might cause some harm to her beloved daughter.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. With Xiao Yanzi, Ertai, Yongqi, and Benjamin around, Niannian will never be bullied by Ziwei and Erkang again."
Qing'er reassured the worried old lady, giving her peace of mind.
Ertai's attitude last time reassured her a lot, and Xiaoyanzi's behavior when she came to Cining Palace some time ago also showed that she cared about Niannian.
If Niannian can still be bullied if those two are around, then it's better to break off Niannian's relationship with them as soon as possible.
"Um."
The Empress Dowager nodded. Hearing what Qing'er said, she felt much more at ease. She was also at ease with Ertai, as she could clearly see how much Ertai cared for Niannian.
She was worried that her precious daughter would be bullied.
"Qing'er, keep a close eye on Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei during this trip. I have a feeling they're hiding something from us, and it makes me uneasy."
...
(Niannian is extremely slow to realize her feelings, and there are other reasons as well, which prevent her from noticing her own feelings early on.)
