Chapter 62 I Don’t Want You to Care
"Madam, Miss Five is here to see you." Aunt Xie said with a smile as she looked at the old lady. She was still talking about Miss Five in the morning.
Unexpectedly, the fifth young lady returned to the general's mansion.
"Hurry, hurry, please invite her in." The old lady said as she walked outside. Ever since Baoer went to Prince Jin's Mansion, she felt empty in her heart.
Obviously the little girl didn't stay with her for long.
Last time she paid for Zhiyan to buy ointment, Nan Jiao must have felt uncomfortable. That day, she and Prince Jin came over to investigate the responsibility and then left directly.
These days, she has been thinking about this matter all the time.
"Grandma." Nan Jiao walked towards her carrying a food box.
The old lady looked at her bright smiling face, her eyes sore, and she walked up to her and grabbed her hand, "Are you angry with your grandmother?"
“No.” Nan Jiao shook her head.
"Grandma bought ointment for Zhiyan that day. Did you mind?" The old lady felt that she was comforting herself.
Nan Jiao put the food box on the table and said honestly, "Grandma, I was really sad at that time because you stood on her side."
"I……"
"I understand your approach. To you, we are like the palm and the back of your hand, all flesh and blood. But I can tell you today that she and I can never be sisters."
Nan Jiao expressed her clear position in a decisive tone.
The old lady's face changed drastically. The hand holding her trembled slightly. She asked anxiously, "What happened between you two? Weren't you all fine before?"
"She is not as kind as she appears." Nan Jiao stopped at the point. There was no evidence for the past events, and if she talked too much, her grandmother would think she was talking nonsense.
"Are you saying that she is two-faced?" The old lady had an expression of disbelief on her face. She had watched Zhiyan grow up, and she found her to be well-behaved, kind, sensible and considerate.
"Well, grandma, you should be more careful in the future. Time will tell whether it is true or not." Nan Jiao said frankly. She knew that her grandmother was a smart person.
The old lady nodded to show that she had listened to her.
She hopes that the family will be harmonious and everything will be prosperous.
But if someone stirs up trouble, she won't sit idly by.
"How are you getting along with Prince Jin recently?" the old lady asked with a concerned smile on her face.
"It's okay." Nan Jiao said.
She helped the prince detoxify, so at least Zhan Beiheng wouldn't do anything to her for now, so she wasn't worried about the fact that she had an illegitimate daughter being exposed.
Even if he didn't protect her, she had nothing to be afraid of.
Anyway, she is upright and honest.
"Then live a good life with him, and don't make trouble or act out of temper like before." The old lady held her hand and said earnestly.
"I will."
Nan Jiao could only go along with her, "Grandma, these are the buns Baoer and I made for you and big brother. They should still be hot, try them."
As she spoke, she opened the lunch box.
She removed the gauze and found the buns were still warm. She picked one up and handed it to the old lady.
The old lady was a little surprised when she smelled the fragrance. She didn't expect that she could make buns. She took it and took a bite. A look of surprise appeared on her face and her eyes became brighter.
"You made this yourself?"
"Um."
"It has a soft texture, fresh and fragrant without being greasy, thin skin and plenty of fillings, the soup is not greasy, and it tastes great." The old lady praised with a smile on her face. She didn't expect that her cooking skills were so good.
"Thank you, grandma, for praising me. Thank you, grandma. You can try it too." Nan Jiao handed her a bun.
"Thank you, Fifth Miss." Madam Xie took it with a smile on her face. After she took two bites, she realized that the old lady was not exaggerating.
The buns made by Miss Fifth are more delicious than those made by the most famous restaurant in Beijing.
At this time.
Jiang Huai walked in carrying something.
"Brother, weren't you on duty? Why are you back?" Nan Jiao was a little surprised to see him.
The only people who made her feel warm in the entire general's mansion were her grandmother and him.
Jiang Huai walked towards her. "The news that you had a child out of wedlock spread throughout the capital. My colleagues were all talking about it. I was worried about you so I went to the palace. Butler Zhou said you went back to the general's mansion."
"It's exposed!" the old lady was shocked, with a worried look on her face. Although the emperor already knew about this, Prince Jin also had an illegitimate child.
But in her opinion, the world will still condemn Nan Jiao.
King Jin was a well-known god of war in the Qin State. He had made great military achievements and was loved by the people. Naturally, they would not say anything about him because of his illegitimate son.
Nan Jiao is different.
Her reputation in the capital was already bad, and everyone would only think that she was honored to marry Prince Jin.
As a result, she gave birth to a child out of wedlock!
Isn't it just an insult to their beloved King Jin?
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll be fine. Big brother, take me to see second brother." Nan Jiao stood up and said. This was the reason why she came to the general's mansion today.
She helped the prince to detoxify, which was enough to prove her medical skills.
The second brother would probably let her treat his leg.
"This is for you." Jiang Huai handed the bag in his hand to her.
Nan Jiao took it and opened it. Inside were some exquisite and beautiful embroideries. "Brother, why did you buy this for me?"
Jiang Huai smiled elegantly, "I didn't buy it. You saved Meng's daughter last time. She has already divorced her husband and left the Meng family with her two daughters."
"That's great." Nan Jiao was happy for him from the bottom of her heart.
"What's going on?" asked the old lady.
Nan Jiao briefly recounted what happened at the pharmacy last time.
After hearing this, the old lady said angrily: "It's better to divorce. Meng's mother-in-law is too much."
"Looking at her embroidery skills, I'm sure she will have a better life in the future." Nan Jiao looked at the embroidery in her hands.
"Nan Jiao, are you really not worried about the rumors outside?" Jiang Huai was still very worried about her. You know, the saliva of the people can sometimes drown people.
"Don't worry, let's go to second brother's yard and have some buns with eldest brother." Nan Jiao stuffed two buns into his hands and dragged him outside.
Jiang Huai: “…”
He had no choice but to accept it.
…
Yuqingyuan.
Baoer was sitting in the yard, her chin supported by her hands, and Erhu was lying on its back beside her.
I don’t know how my mother is doing?
She really wants to go to the General's Mansion to see her great-grandmother and uncle.
At this time, Zhan Beiheng, dressed in gorgeous dark clothes, walked in.
When Baoer saw him, she quickly stood up and ran into the room, slamming the door shut.
Zhan Beiheng: “…”
Is he a monster?
He actually ran away when he saw him!
"Open the door." Zhan Beiheng stood at the door with a dark face.
"No, no." Baoer refused.
"Do you want to go find your mother?" Zhan Beiheng's voice softened. Didn't she want to see him at all?
"I do." Baoer said in a low voice.
"Open the door. I will take you to the General's Mansion."
Crunch——
Bao Er opened the door, staring at him with her big black eyes, her pink face full of anticipation, "Are you really taking me there?"
"Of course, let's go." Zhan Beiheng took her hand.
Bao Er quickly dodged and said proudly, "I don't want you to hold me."
Zhan Beiheng's mouth twitched, and he deliberately said, "Do you think I want to take you with me? I'm just teasing you, hurry up and follow me, if you don't want to go, forget it."
Having said that, he strode away.
Baoer put her hands on her hips and glared at his back angrily.
Bad uncle is so annoying!!!
