Chapter 278
Xiao Lian's pupils widened instantly!
Why did they get here?
She wouldn't be afraid of anyone else, but these three brats had seen her holding the child before.
Although she said that the Grand Princess had asked her to hold the child.
But what if they recognize me? That would be troublesome!
Thinking of this, Xiaolian felt extremely regretful; she should have covered it up at the time.
Now that the news has been leaked, won't everyone think that the First Madam made him do it?
Thinking of this, Xiaolian quickly hid.
She still needs to think of a way to leave the mansion and hide.
The eldest princess, who had been somewhat listless, perked up instantly upon hearing that the second master and his wife had returned.
"Seventh Granny, go and see if my Nuonuo has returned?" The Grand Princess asked excitedly, showing no trace of her previous dejection.
On the contrary, they are very energetic.
He Yushan, who was standing to the side, felt heartbroken.
Just now, I've been here for so long, serving tea and water to my mother-in-law, and she hasn't said a single kind word to me. Now, just because the second branch of the family has returned, the old lady's attitude has changed completely.
He Yushan silently felt that her efforts were not worth it.
"Mother-in-law, please be careful. My second brother and sister-in-law are back. I'm sure Nuonuo has some news too," He Yushan said, feigning composure.
“Yes, Nuonuo must be back too.” The Grand Princess nodded repeatedly, clearly pleased to hear He Yushan’s words.
However, hearing the Grand Princess say this made He Yushan feel even worse.
The mother-in-law didn't seem to care at all about her two sons, whom she had given birth to herself.
I wonder what kind of magic that little girl has that makes this old lady so worried.
Or perhaps the old lady thought that the second wife's family members were skilled in sweet talk and could make her happy.
Although He Yushan didn't show it on her face, she felt increasingly uneasy the more she thought about it.
"Mother, we're back!" Gu Yunshu shouted as soon as she stepped into Qinxin Courtyard.
"She's back! She's back!" The Grand Princess had experienced the pain of losing her beloved granddaughter today, and now that she had found her again, such a dramatic turn of events had affected her. Now, she was just holding on to her last breath, wanting to see her little granddaughter.
"Mother, I have fulfilled my mission and brought Nuonuo back!" Gu Yunshu said, kneeling before the Grand Princess with red eyes.
"Good! Good! It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back! Let this princess see Nuonuo!" The Grand Princess looked expectantly at the baby in Ruan Jingge's arms.
Gu Nuonuo seemed to realize that she was home, and she burst into tears.
"Oh dear, my dear granddaughter, have you been wronged? You've even come to your grandmother to complain." The Grand Princess said, holding the child with a look of heartache.
He Yuyu, standing to the side, lowered her head, feeling utterly disdainful. What could such a little baby possibly know about tattling?
What a pity, why didn't she die out there?
"Mother, Nuonuo might have wet her pants. Perhaps your daughter-in-law should hold her for now," Ruan Jingge said softly, afraid that her mother-in-law would dislike her daughter later.
"What child doesn't wet his pants? A child's pee doesn't smell." Only then did the Grand Princess notice that Gu Nuonuo's clothes were a bit too big and looked like boys' clothes.
