Chapter 162 Entering Prince An's Mansion
"Wanjie, are you tired from the journey? It's still a bit cold today. Why don't you wait until spring comes and the flowers bloom before leaving the capital?"
Zhao held Jiang Wan's hand and asked about her well-being.
"Don't worry, mother. We have made all the necessary preparations along the way, and we are not in a hurry, so we are not very tired."
Jiang Wan replied with a respectful smile.
"Since we have to leave sooner or later, Your Highness, please discuss with me and decide to leave at the same time as those at Prince Jing's Mansion. This will save us from lingering in the capital for too long and causing the censors to talk."
"The second one is also a vassal?"
Prince An looked at his brother with a little surprise on his face.
"Didn't he say he wouldn't leave even if he was beaten to death?"
"Humph, just listen to how he talks. If he were really about to be beaten to death, wouldn't he run faster than a rabbit?
Speaking of enfeoffment, hey, hey, brother, let me tell you, you have to thank me this time. You've benefited greatly from me, you know?"
"What have you been doing without claws again?"
"How can you talk like that? I'm such a steady person, and you're ruining my reputation in front of my wife? Are you still my real brother?"
Seeing that the fourth brother was about to change his face, Prince An quickly apologized with a smile.
"Come on, come on, come on, big brother, you said the wrong thing. Please don't hold grudges against me."
He even turned around and greeted Jiang Wan.
"Don't take it to heart, sister-in-law. When the fourth child isn't throwing a tantrum, he's actually quite steady."
Jiang Wan turned away helplessly.
"Brother, actually, your explanation is completely unnecessary. We basically grew up together when we were little. What stupid things has he done that I haven't seen him do?"
Zhao took her hand and patted it apologetically, with a hint of guilt in her tone.
"Old Four was a naughty kid. It was all because his mother and I failed to teach him well. I hope you will bear with him from now on. Thank you for your hard work."
"Mother, you are too kind."
Jiang Wan deliberately frowned and sighed bitterly.
"A daughter-in-law doesn't have to work hard, but her life is hard."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Princess An clapped her arm with joy.
"You're already a princess, and you're still so mischievous. You two are truly a pair of funny people."
"Well, didn't you know that before? You and my elder brother live in harmony, while I and my prince live in harmony. We don't look down on each other anyway."
"Yes, everything my wife said is right!"
“Hahahahahaha…”
The room was filled with laughter.
Prince An laughed so hard that he coughed several times. Li Laosi quickly picked up the hot tea on the table and handed it to his eldest brother.
"Hurry up and drink some tea to calm down. You can't laugh. Why are you laughing so loudly?"
“…cough…cough cough, it’s okay.”
He raised his hand and waved to his mother and wife, indicating that they didn't need to worry. After drinking a few sips of water to calm his breath, Prince An smiled and chatted with his brother again.
"It's an old problem of mine, you know. I cough easily when I get choked by the cold wind. It's not a big deal."
"You can't be careless, your body is your own, don't you take better care of yourself?
Before I left the capital, my parents prepared a lot of good medicinal herbs and asked me to bring them to you. It seems there's something in it that can moisten the lungs. Go see a doctor and find out how to take them. Then take them right away.
After we finish eating, we can write a letter back to the old man and ask for it. After all, even if we are kicked out, we are still his biological sons, right? "
Prince An raised his eyebrows speechlessly.
"Do you think I'm as thick-skinned as you, capable of throwing a tantrum in front of the Emperor?"
"I don't like what you said. If I hadn't thrown a tantrum, would you have gotten any credit this time?"
Hearing his younger brother mention it so emphatically again, Prince An's rare curiosity was finally aroused.
"What good stuff did you get that you want me to benefit from it too?"
"Oh, just be happy."
Li Laosi leaned close to his eldest brother's ear and muttered in a very proud manner, and King An's eyes widened as expected.
"Really? Father agreed to give the prince private soldiers?!"
"That's not good. I was lying on the ground rolling around and threatening him. If he didn't give me some private soldiers to protect the safety of us princes, if I was bullied by anyone, I would go back to my ancestral grave and hang myself on the crooked tree on his grave! Let's see what the history books say about it then."
Looking at his brother's smug look, Prince An felt a little embarrassed and covered his forehead.
"Thank you so much for your kindness this time, Fourth Brother. I owe you a favor."
"What's the point of being kind? I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this mainly for myself. You're just taking advantage of it.
But Li Lao Er also got some of the credit, and I'm so angry. You don't even know what trap he set for me at the palace banquet a few days ago, damn it..."
Li Laosi continued to complain to his elder brother about Li Laoer's various immoral behaviors, while Jiang Wan was chatting and laughing happily with the Zhao mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, you're not even four months pregnant yet, why do you look a little bit pregnant?"
"No, I'm fat."
Princess An looked at her incredibly beautiful sister-in-law and was almost tired of saying the word "envy" from childhood to adulthood.
"Wanjie, you are getting prettier and prettier. You're almost as pretty as the fairies in heaven. If I could give birth to a daughter as beautiful as you, no, even if she's only half as pretty as you, I'd wake up laughing even in my sleep."
"Sister-in-law, you are already beautiful enough. How could you not give birth to a beautiful child in the future?"
"I used to think I looked okay, but when I compared myself to you, I felt like I was a bit willful when I was reincarnated."
He raised his hand and touched his belly, muttering softly with a smile on his face.
"If I look at you more, maybe my future little princess will be more beautiful."
Princess An has never been scheming since she was a child. Now, after being married to Prince An for several years, she is still so straightforward. Jiang Wan was a little surprised, but at the same time, he felt that it was as she should be.
When both her mother-in-law and husband are willing to protect her simple-mindedness, then life will definitely be good. She raised her eyes and looked up, and as expected, she met a pair of kind eyes.
"Whether to have a boy or a girl is determined by heaven. Why think so much about it? We won't force it. If this baby doesn't give birth to a little princess, maybe there will be another baby in the future."
"Yes, mother is right. Whether it's a son or a daughter, the prince said he would hold them in the palm of his hand."
“Cough cough cough!”
Prince An, who was chatting on the side, quickly coughed a few times to interrupt his wife's words. These were all boudoir secrets, how could they be said in public?
Princess An received a hint from her husband and quickly fell silent, blushing and lowering her head awkwardly. It was clear that the couple had a good relationship.
Jiang Wan's eyes were filled with the joy of shipping the couple.
But I still remember that I am no longer a simple country boy, and I can no longer stare at others openly when I ship them.
I could only turn away and change the subject.
