A trip to Dajue Temple immediately drew the three girls together, and they quickly became inseparable friends.
Even after returning to the capital, the girls still spent every day together. As long as they were together, even embroidery, which Cen hated the most, became interesting to her.
For several days in a row, she would go to her friends to make sachets together. Jingrou preferred to play with flowers, and after the flowers had finished blooming, she would dry them and, with the help of her nanny, make them into dried flowers, which she would then stuff into sachets and give to her friends.
After discovering her little interest, Jingrou was so busy for several days in a row that she didn't have time to rest.
Not only did Prince An feel aggrieved at being ignored, but Jingrou's cousins also felt a little disappointed.
My own delicate and sweet younger sister wants to run outside and hang out with other girls every day... Nobody's happy about that!
From now on, I won't be able to see my sweet and gentle little girl every day when I come home. Who will understand my sadness?
They certainly didn't want to face their tough cousins every time they came back from martial arts practice or school!
It's still the delicate and sweet little girl who can soothe people's hearts the most!
However, there was always a way. One day, the pressure of drawing Jingrou's attention back fell on her older cousin.
When Jingrou returned home that day, Wenying had started learning embroidery. With Cen's help, the two girls finally made a perfect purse by hand and gave it to Jingrou.
The two girls' sincere affection touched her deeply, and she became very fond of the purse.
So Jingrou was very happy all day long, and she carefully hung the purse on her waist.
He even played with it while eating.
Bartu gripped his chopsticks, unhappy. He hadn't expected that in just a few days of being away from home, he would lose favor with his little cousin!
He glanced at his older brother, Qi Jia, feeling displeased. Wasn't his brother usually the most cunning? How come he'd managed to attract his cousin's attention and was now completely helpless?
Useless in crucial moments!
Qi Jia sensed her younger brother's dissatisfaction, smiled slightly, and placed a piece of sweet and sour fish, which Jing Rou liked, on her plate. "Did you have fun today, Zhu Zhu?"
Jingrou nodded happily, her short little legs still dangling.
How could I not be happy!
She's so happy every day now. Being able to blend champagne to a delicious flavor is what makes her happiest!
Qi Jia smiled, "I don't know if Zhuzhu can find the time. Your cousin was thinking of taking you to the horse farm. Someone from downstairs asked about it the other day, and they happen to have a well-trained chestnut pony that's very lively... It's a pity the timing wasn't right before... If Zhuzhu doesn't have time, then we should..."
When Jingrou heard about the pony, her eyes lit up. How could she possibly disagree?
She grabbed her cousin's hand, nodded vigorously, and looked at her maternal grandfather with expectant eyes.
Prince An was overjoyed to have his granddaughter's attention and would certainly not refuse her. Moreover, the matter had already been discussed and agreed upon, so he had no reason to disagree.
but…
"You boys are not very reliable. Only Qi Jia is somewhat better. I will have to go and accompany you. How can I entrust Zhuzhu to you?"
Bartu pouted... They wanted to play with their little cousin, not their grandfather. With him standing next to them, they couldn't play comfortably no matter what...
However, they were already very satisfied with the result, and Bartu, with hints from his other cousins, showed a "satisfied" smile.
Riding a horse!
Jingrou cheers!
Because she is still too young, and she has always been a baby on medicine, how could she be exposed to a sport like horseback riding that adults consider somewhat dangerous?
She instinctively wanted to ask her friends, "Can I come over with Cen and the others?"
He Cen overheard somewhere, "Girls shouldn't keep secrets from each other; they have to be inseparable. If you don't tell them anything, they'll be very sad!"
Ultimately, Jingrou is not a pure child.
She was somewhat nostalgic for and indulged this somewhat naive idea, even though she felt a little embarrassed. Perhaps she had the same simple thoughts when she was young!
"If Cen and the others find out..." Jingrou's eyes sparkled.
How could I possibly let them come over! Why are these two little girls still haunting me?
Bartu's smile froze; he swore these two girls were the people he hated most by far.
How could someone take their own sister away after getting to know her?!
Even now, Jingrou still has to think about the two of them!
If he had known that Zhuzhu would turn out like this, he would definitely have kept a close watch on her and prevented her from meeting them!
He shifted, feeling uneasy, and wanted to tell his sister not to bring them.
Prince An glanced at Qi Jia but made no move. This boy, who usually seemed quiet and reserved, was actually the most cunning of all his grandsons.
They were all as thick-skinned as their arms, except for Qi Jia, who was like a little fox; it was hard to tell which one he took after.
Qi Jia grasped Baltu's hand.
“Zhuzhu, your brother is thinking of your little friends! But it’s my grandmother’s birthday soon, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to attend to them. And Cousin He Cen… she’ll probably have to stay in the manor for a while to learn some manners.” He Cen is the niece of Jingrou’s third maternal aunt, and the three sisters-in-law in the Prince An’s manor have a very good relationship, so calling her cousin is not an exaggeration at all.
Jingrou thought for a moment and realized that her friends had mentioned this to her, but she had forgotten about it in her excitement. Now that she remembered, they were indeed too busy.
That's a bit of a shame, this time I can only go out and have fun with my cousins by myself!
