Jiang Ying noticed his overly passionate gaze, frowned and glared at him, "What are you looking at? Let's go!"
"Are the other members of the Jiang family really not going?" Yan Zhuo was not very happy.
How could they not go? It was Yingying and Zhier's big day, hadn't they already decided to recognize their granddaughter as their biological granddaughter? But they failed at the crucial moment!
Jiang Ying didn't answer him, remembering what her grandmother had told her in the morning. Her father, Jiang Shang, had requested the emperor's order to return from the border, but accidentally encountered a shipwreck on the way. He could have arrived a few days ago, but was delayed until now.
But it doesn’t matter, I can make it to Xiao Yanzhi’s full moon banquet.
Before the carriage from the Prince Qin's Palace arrived, the three brothers had already hurried out of the city gate to greet them.
After my grandmother confirmed that my father was fine, she naturally took my brothers to the banquet.
As for whether Jiang Shang would go with them or go back to pick up Luo and Jiang Yilin, that was not within Jiang Ying's consideration.
"My father is back, they will be later."
Jiang Ying climbed onto the carriage brought by Yan Zhuo without any hesitation.
The latter was a little surprised, but he quickly climbed up with his son in his arms. "After today, tomorrow will be our wedding day. Have you reviewed the betrothal gift list? If there's anything you're not satisfied with, we can make changes."
Jiang Ying pretended to close his eyes and rest, "No."
I have no plans to marry him, so what can I say?
Yan Zhuo didn't know this. He thought that it was only one day left, and even if the little woman grew wings, she couldn't fly away!
A few days ago, I appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him, and it seems that he finally listened.
Looking at Jiang Ying's beautiful and charming face, Yan Zhuo was inexplicably in a good mood, and the corners of his cold mouth slowly curled up into an arc of joy.
This expression happened to be seen by Xiao Yanzhi, and the little guy clicked his tongue in sympathy.
What's with that look in Dad's eyes? Is he attracted to Mom?
[It's so strange and bizarre. In my previous life, it was my mother who shamelessly approached my scumbag father and was always despised. How come in this life, my mother ignored him, but he came up to me for all sorts of reasons?]
[No wonder people say men are cheap. When someone likes him, he doesn't cherish them or care about them anymore. Instead, he's determined to get them...]
Jiang Ying was just pretending to doze with his eyes closed, he was not really asleep.
So she heard her son's mental activities clearly, and was so shocked that she almost opened her eyes.
It felt like a magnitude 5 earthquake had occurred in my heart!
What? Yan Zhuo likes her?
My son must have drunk too much milk this morning, so he's talking nonsense!
Jiang Ying certainly didn't believe it, but she couldn't ignore the burning gaze in the car that was always there and seemed to be nowhere, which was very annoying! She didn't need to wonder who it was, after all, the way her monkey son looked at her could never be like this!
So, this journey was quite torturous.
After closing his eyes to rest, Jiang Ying finally arrived at the gate of the Prince Qin's Mansion. When he opened his eyes, he felt even more tired than when he left the house.
…
"Follow me for a while and don't pay attention to anyone's gazes or comments." Yan Zhuo said softly to Jiang Ying before getting off the carriage.
Jiang Ying knew what he meant. She had not yet regained her identity. In principle, she was still just a concubine who grew up in the countryside.
Many people must dislike her, especially those self-proclaimed noble ladies.
But in order to laugh at her and embarrass Yan Zhuo, Tong invited a lot of people today. Almost all the high-ranking and low-ranking officials in the capital, as well as the nobles from aristocratic families, came!
Many people here like Yan Zhuo openly or secretly, and they regard her as a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh.
Jiang Ying nodded calmly and said, "Get off the carriage."
As the car door opened, the faint voices became louder and louder. Servants came and went, and the entrance of the Prince Qin's Mansion was bustling with people.
Someone exclaimed, "Wow, look over there, the real boss is coming!"
All the chaotic sounds stopped, and even the people walking nearby quickly slowed down their pace, stood still and looked at them.
Someone laughed and said, "What main character? Isn't that Prince Yan's carriage? Could it be that he really dotes on that mother and daughter so much that he went to pick them up personally?"
"What a joke! If you're not favored, can you go to the palace and ask the emperor for marriage in person?"
"The marriage granted is to the legitimate daughter of Duke Jiang, not that vixen-like concubine. How can this count? I bet Prince Yan came alone and didn't bring that woman with him!"
"Yes, I bet too, ten taels of silver."
"The child's full-month banquet is being held at the Prince Qin's residence. It's already a sign of the Prince Qin's kindness to give such a great honor to a concubine's son. Why did she allow that woman to come? If she wants to gain status through her son, she'd better keep her composure and hide. Otherwise, if someone sees her alluring face, they might get jealous and grab her!"
"Hahahaha..." Everyone was talking one after another, mocking and belittling each other without any concealment.
His eyes were fixed on the carriage door without blinking.
Yan Zhuo was the first to get off the carriage gracefully, holding a fair and beautiful child in his arms. Especially with the careful dressing today, little Yan Zhi looked even fairer and more tender, like a fairy child who had descended to earth.
The sounds of people watching the show all around immediately turned into deep breaths.
There was a loud bang, "Wow, is that Prince Yan's child? So beautiful!"
"Me too. I've never seen such a beautiful child. It makes my heart melt at the first sight of him."
"Look carefully, that child looks almost like Prince Yan, no wonder he's so handsome!"
"Now I finally understand why His Royal Highness dotes on that child. He's so beautiful and looks like his own son, who wouldn't like him?"
No one had any ill will towards the child, and many people even had stars in their eyes.
