Chapter 258
Before they knew it, it was the day of the Grand Princess's full moon celebration.
Everyone gathered in front of the Grand Princess, saying nice things to her.
The smile on the Grand Princess's face never stopped.
You know, she had always wanted a sweet and lovely daughter, but unfortunately, she injured her body when she gave birth to her second child. From then on, she could only envy others who had daughters, while she could only stay with her two stinky boys.
Since her granddaughter was born, the eldest princess has been visiting her second son's courtyard every few days to see her.
If the child weren't so young, she would have taken him directly back to her yard to raise.
The Grand Princess was truly delighted today, so she sent invitations to every prominent family in the capital.
Those who received the invitation naturally came to keep their appointment.
At this moment, He Yushan, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Grand Princess, stood not far away. Looking at her mother-in-law's heart and the whole courtyard filled with thoughts of her second wife's newborn daughter, she couldn't help but feel a little sour.
Especially now, seeing her mother-in-law sitting there holding the little girl, chatting and laughing with the noble ladies of the capital, made her even more jealous.
And the scale of today's full moon celebration is far greater than that of her two sons' celebrations back then.
The more He Yushan thought about it, the more upset she felt, but she could only stand not far away and watch her mother-in-law and sister-in-law's joyful faces.
"Mother, does Grandmother not like me and my brother anymore?" He Yushan's eldest son, Gu Shaoting, looked at his grandmother, who was holding his aunt's daughter with a happy expression, and asked with some unease.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You and Yu'er are naturally Grandma's favorite children," He Yushan retorted without thinking.
The eldest princess was actually quite good to her two children.
Although he didn't do everything himself, he never shortchanged the children.
However, she always felt that her mother-in-law's thoughtfulness was not as great as how her mother-in-law cared for the little girl born to her sister-in-law.
"Then why is your mother-in-law only holding your younger sister?" Gu Shaoting pursed his lips, looking at He Yushan who seemed to be lying.
"Why are you jealous of your sister? She's still little, so of course you need to be held. You were both held when you were little too," He Yushan said, trying to comfort the two children.
However, thinking about this, I couldn't quite recall when my mother-in-law had held them.
"I hate my little sister, Mother! I don't want a little sister! If only there were no little sister, I would be the youngest child in the mansion, and Grandmother would be holding me right now!" Little Gu Shaoyu clenched his fists and said indignantly.
He Yushan felt a pang of sadness. She thought to herself, even her Yu'er knew that if that little brat were gone, the most favored children in the mansion would be her Ting'er and Yu'er.
However, it's fine to think this way in your heart, but you must never say it out loud.
What He Yushan didn't notice was that there was a little maid following behind her, who was listening very attentively to the conversation. When she heard Gu Shaoyu's indignant words...
The maidservant noticed the resentment on He Yushan's face.
Xu Qingshi never expected to run into Xie Yanzhi and Jiang Yu at the Grand Princess's residence.
You know, usually it's the adults in the household who come to such occasions. I never expected that all three of them would be sent by their families as representatives.
"Why are you here?" Xu Qingshi asked curiously.
"My mother brought me here," Xie Yanzhi said, pointing to Madam Yao not far away.
“My mother is pregnant, so she asked me to deliver a gift,” Jiang Yu said with a shrug.
"My grandmother is unwell, so she asked me to deliver a gift," Xu Qingshi quickly explained why he was there.
