Fu Hanlai's mind was completely blank. He felt as if he were being burned by a ball of fire. He wanted to roll around on the bed and then get up to say something to Jiang Xuelin, telling her why she was being so unreserved.
In reality, however, he did nothing; he was just being foolish.
He lay there blankly, not moving, looking completely lost.
Jiang Xuelin waited for a long time without getting the response she expected, and felt a little embarrassed. But after looking up, her embarrassment disappeared.
She reached out and gently pinched Fu Hanlai's face. Seeing that Fu Hanlai didn't react, she reached out with her other hand and pinched his cheeks with both hands at the same time, pulling them apart. "Fu Ashou? Fu Ashou? Don't you have anything to say?"
Then, Jiang Xuelin felt Fu Hanlai turn over and wrap himself in the blanket with his back to her.
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
I wanted to laugh but was afraid he would get angry, and I was hoping to see some interesting reactions.
Just as Jiang Xuelin lay back down to rest, Fu Hanlai turned around again and looked at her seriously.
"Ahem, Jiang Xuelin."
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
"Hmm, I wonder what instructions Your Highness may have?"
"I never expected that you would like me so much. It's quite a surprise. Were you attracted to my handsome appearance a long time ago? But I'm a soft-hearted person. Since you like me so much, I'm willing to give you a chance."
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
If she didn't know what kind of person this guy was, she would have hit him.
It's a pity that Fu Ashou rarely refers to himself as "this young master" when he's with her; he only does so when he's nervous.
It didn't sound very appealing, but she also wanted to know what kind of opportunity Fu Ashou was going to give her.
"If you beg me, I might just grant your wish."
As he spoke, Fu Hanlai glanced at Jiang Xuelin with an extremely proud look.
But while others might be fooled by his arrogant attitude, Jiang Xuelin wouldn't. So she simply smiled and went along with Fu Han's wishes.
"Then please, Your Highness?"
She deliberately softened her voice when she said this.
Sure enough, Fu Hanlai fell silent again the next moment.
Jiang Xuelin: ?
"Ahem... Since you like me so much, cough, I am a magnanimous and kind person, so I will give you a word of advice as well."
"...I also think that the marriage arranged by the Bodhisattva at Yuanshan Temple that day was... excellent."
—Since you've already told me this, I'm only reluctantly agreeing with you to avoid upsetting you.
After saying that, Fu Hanlai quickly lay down with his back to Jiang Xuelin, "Alright, it's getting late, time to sleep!"
Jiang Xuelin smiled behind his back, but didn't say anything more, and instead began to rest as he wished.
Seeing that he didn't hear Jiang Xuelin's mocking voice, Fu Hanlai finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his back. However, he was not sleepy at all, and he dared not move around, so he could only stay with his back to him.
Only when he felt steady breathing behind him did he carefully turn around, call out in a low voice, and after finding that Jiang Xuelin did not react, he reached out and touched Jiang Xuelin's stomach through her clothes, then loosely embraced her and closed his eyes.
After he fell asleep, Jiang Xuelin, who had been sleeping soundly for a long time, suddenly opened her eyes, glanced at the side, and then truly rested.
When Fu Hanlai woke up the next morning, the awkwardness of their confession the night before seemed to have passed with the night. Instead of feeling unhappy, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really afraid that Jiang Xuelin, with her unreserved nature, would say something inappropriate in public.
well.
This is really too difficult.
The maids had no idea what little secret the two masters were up to, but they had gotten used to ignoring it and just pretending not to see it. Even Granny Yao, who had only come after Jiang Xuelin became pregnant, was now used to the close relationship between her young master and his wife.
Unfortunately, the young master himself was unaware of this.
This reminded Granny Yao of the prince and princess when they were young.
Of course, the prince and princess are not as childish as the young master.
In any case, everyone could tell that the two masters were in a very good mood. Fu Hanlai had a smile on his face when he went out to buy snacks for Jiang Xuelin at Yu Rong Zhai.
On the way, he saw some spoiled brats he usually disliked, but instead of bullying them, he smiled and said a few words to them. This made those spoiled brats who usually bullied men and women even more nervous. After he left, they hurried home, afraid that if they were a step too late, they would be punished again.
—Don't think that just because Jiang Xuelin hasn't had time to come out these days, they can indulge themselves!
The young master is no longer the leading young master he used to be!
He's now the Crown Princess's... lackey!
Yu Rong Zhai's special pastries are limited in quantity every day and they do not accept reservations. Because they have powerful backers and would not use their power to oppress people for such a small amount of pastries, no one has ever made a fuss. Fu Hanlai has now gotten used to being sent over by Jiang Xuelin from time to time.
And he was very honest; he didn't go somewhere else to wait for Ping An or Kang Tai to buy it just because he was out of Jiang Xuelin's sight. Instead, he obediently went there by himself.
Jiang Xuelin doesn't eat it every day; she only thinks about it from time to time, and she refuses Fu Hanlai's offer to bring the pastry chef to her door.
The answer is that the experience of visiting the store is different from the experience of visiting a physical store.
Because the date of delivery was approaching, Jiang Xuelin did not return to the Jing'an Marquis's residence with the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts, but instead had them sent back by someone else.
Early that morning, Jiang Xuelin was having breakfast. Her breakfast was light and simple, with nothing complicated except a bowl of shrimp wontons, which smelled delicious.
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and my mother said she has asked for leave for me, so I won't be going to the palace tomorrow." The wontons are really small, one bite at a time.
Fu Hanlai: "..."
Actually, he didn't want to go either.
Entering the palace takes up the entire day, and he really didn't want to go this year, but it seemed like he couldn't not go.
Jiang Xuelin ate a few more bites, put down the spoon in her hand, smacked her lips and looked at Fu Hanlai, "Fu Ashou, I'm craving Yu Rongzhai's jujube paste layered cake. Go buy it for me, it's a bit monotonous to just eat wontons."
Fu Hanlai ate quickly and wasn't surprised to hear this. He scooped the last wonton from his bowl, took a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and stood up.
"Okay, then don't be lazy, remember to move around more. I'll be right back."
"I'm not you, how could I be lazy? Hurry up!" Jiang Xuelin was unhappy when she heard this, as if she was lazy and didn't move all day when he wasn't around.
Fu Hanlai didn't say anything, and left with his men.
After everyone left, Jiang Xuelin ate the remaining wontons in her bowl, then patted her stomach and looked at Granny Yao who was waiting beside her.
"Granny, go and call the midwife over, and have the kitchen prepare hot water. I think I'm about to give birth."
