Chapter 188 I want to get close to her

Several children were running and playing, and Wei Xinglu was chasing after them enviously: "Wait for me, let me rub against you, rub some Night Pearl Powder on me too!"

"Haha, then run faster, I have the most..."

"Jincheng, wait for me."

The kids continued to make trouble, while Xu Wan looked at her little finger, turned to the old lady and said, "This time I should really get out of the grudge book."

The old lady laughed out loud and felt several years younger. "Let's go and see the lanterns. If you ask me, the lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival are the most beautiful. They are all red."

Xu Wan raised her eyebrows and said, "That's because you like red. The lanterns during the Lantern Festival are colorful and the flowers are in full bloom."

"Red is beautiful, no other color can compare to it." The old lady argued.

"My wife thinks the purple one is pretty, the blue one is also good, and the yellow one is also very bright..."

On the other side of the palace banquet.

Pang Jing was dragged away and cried out of grievance.

Mrs. Pang was also annoyed by the crying: "Why are you crying? You cry because you can't rob others. Why don't you have the brains to come up with such a stupid idea?"

"Mom, I just want that dress, why don't you help me get it back!"

"What are you trying to steal? This is a palace banquet. Don't I, your mother, have any dignity?" Madam Pang gritted her teeth and said, "This Xu Wan doesn't know what's good for her. I really gave her face."

“Wuwuwu…” Pang Jing was still crying.

General Pang came over and asked, "What's going on? Why is Jing'er crying?"

Madam Pang told him what had happened, and General Pang said with a cold face: "As soon as the general left, they dared to be so presumptuous and not give us face. They must be relying on the prince's power."

Before Luo Jingfeng went to the border, he asked him to keep a close eye on the prince's every move. Then he discovered that the prince went to the marquis's mansion three times in one month, which must be related to something important.

"General, the general has sent a message back to the capital." The guard came running from outside and handed General Pang a note.

Mrs. Pang was afraid of disturbing General Pang, so she took Pang Jing to another place.

General Pang opened the note, his eyes gradually widened, he looked at the guard and said: "General, I got news that the third lady may have had a child before her death!"

The guards were also shocked: "How is it possible? I have never heard that the Third Miss was pregnant. She was bedridden for more than half a year before her death. How could she have a child? More than half a year... more than half a year? More than half a year!"

General Pang was surprised and delighted, and guessed, "The Third Miss is pretending to be sick. She may have secretly conceived a child and gave birth to it."

"That's great! If the third lady has a child, then this world will be ours." The guard said in surprise.

"Great, great, great, great news, General!" General Pang said excitedly, "Immediately check all the people that the Third Miss had contact with during her lifetime, including her maids, friends, and imperial doctors, check them all!"

"Yes." The guard ran out quickly with a smug look on his face.

General Pang laughed a few times on the spot, his breathing quickened with excitement. He paced back and forth, and sighed, "Miss San, you must fight for it. This child must be a boy."

Wait till the time comes...

The emperor, the crown prince, the clan leader, all those people they disliked must die.

General Pang held the note tightly, and when he looked up again, a determined smile appeared on his face.

After the palace banquet ended, people came out one after another.

As usual, Xu Wan was followed by three eye-catching people, making her conspicuous as well. She had to endure the gazes and ridicule of everyone around her. She now understood Wen Xiu's feelings very well.

It's really a social death...

But the little devil who had just made peace with her kept following her, and other people were also beside her, making Xu Wan want to start a war with him again.

Just when she couldn't bear it any longer, the little devil suddenly took a step forward and grabbed her sleeve.

Xu Wan paused, then asked sideways, "Why are you grabbing my sleeve?"

The little devil's mind was in a mess, and he said casually: "Oh, I was afraid you would get lost."

Xu Wan's face was full of doubts. She felt very ridiculous and asked, "Are you kidding me? Don't you think I don't know the way?"

"Oh, that's hard to say. The palace is quite big and the routes are complicated. My grandmother got lost before." Zong Jincheng lied seriously.

The old marquis with a very keen ear could not help but turn back and expose this nonsense boy. His wife always followed him, so when did she get lost in the palace?

But the old lady held him back and refused to let him turn around, so the old marquis had to whisper to her about the conversation between the mother and son, which made the old lady's eyes light up.

Later, Xu Wan was still explaining numbly: "I have a very good sense of direction, I won't get lost, thank you for your kindness."

It was really hard for her to remain calm with an eye-catching spot on her body that glowed in the middle of the night.

The little devil still held her tightly and continued to talk nonsense: "It's dark, there are no lights on either side, and you have to rely on me to light the way for you."

"Oh, no need. I can walk even in the moonlight." Xu Wan continued to refuse.

The little devil was so angry that he asked, "Do you want to start a war again?"

Xu Wan: “…”Yes, you found out.

However, the wise stepmother decided to change the subject: "Don't hold me so tightly. I can't walk if you do this."

"It's nothing, I just grabbed your sleeve, why are you saying such cheesy things?"

"What I mean by disgusting? Isn't it you who did the disgusting thing?" Xu Wan was deeply impressed by his ability to turn the tables.

"Hmph, bad guy." The little devil said this, but he didn't loosen his grip and kept pulling her forward.

Only after she got on the carriage and was no longer under the spotlight did Xu Wan's heart, which had been beating wildly with embarrassment, finally slow down.

"Wan'er, please take a carriage. I have something to talk to your father-in-law about." The old lady considerately found a step for the little devil.

The old couple gave them some time to spend together this time, while they got on the carriage and began to exchange the latest news about the mother and son. The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they had a feeling that they would soon see the day when the mother was loving and the son was filial.

Xu Wan was sent back to the little devil's carriage.

This made Zong Jincheng secretly very happy.

After he climbed onto the carriage, he sat next to Xu Wan, thinking he would leave no trace.

Xu Wan raised the corners of her mouth and laughed silently in her heart: little idiot, childish ghost.

He Zheng and Zong Wenxiu were sitting opposite them. They were a little tired after playing all night and were resting in the carriage with their eyes closed.

During this time, He Zheng opened his eyes and saw Zong Jincheng move to the right, getting closer to Xu Wan. Xu Wan was leaning against the car window with her eyes closed, unaware.

He Zheng's eyes widened and he immediately became energetic.

What Wei Xinglu had just whispered to him turned out to be true. Jin Cheng had changed a lot recently. It seemed that he was secretly getting close to his stepmother, and he had caught him red-handed.

When the little devil met his brother's shocked eyes, he immediately felt his neck burning and about to turn red. He glared at He Zheng, who quickly closed his eyes and pretended not to see it.
