Chapter 365 Be My Sister-in-law
The little girl was scribbling on the paper.
My hands are covered in ink.
Princess Rong'an frowned slightly, "Miaomiao, let's stop painting and learn music. Whatever instrument you want to learn, I'll teach you."
Princess Rong'an introduced all the musical instruments.
She can play the pipa, konghou and guqin, but she is best at the konghou.
Miaomiao was tone-deaf in her previous life and thought she was not cut out for studying music, but she never expected that now she would have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
It seems that A Niang is really training her to be a lady from a noble family.
Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "Sister Yuan, I've made up my mind. I want to learn the konghou."
Princess Rong'an didn't expect that the little guy liked the guzheng as much as she did, but she was a little embarrassed.
Miaomiao is too young to learn konghou. "Miaomiao, let's learn konghou next year. You are still too young. Why not learn chess?"
"Okay, then let's learn chess." Miaomiao nodded.
She is good at playing chess. Although she can't play Go, she can play Gobang.
Gobang is suitable for all ages.
Princess Rong'an was in a much better mood, smiling more often and talking more.
She still didn't want to go out, nor did she want anyone to know that she had returned to the capital. Even her uncle Cui Yan didn't know.
Miaomiao was afraid that Sister Yuan’s old illness would relapse, and she was also feeling very depressed.
The little fellow took Princess Rong'an's hand and said, "Sister Yuan, let's go shopping. Shopping is the best way to make people happy. When I'm in a bad mood, I just want to shop and eat."
Princess Rong'an shook her head, "I don't want to go."
"Sister Yuan, let's go horseback riding outside the city and fly kites. The crabapple blossoms outside the city are in bloom.
Princess Rong'an still shook her head. "You can fly kites in the backyard too. The flowers there are blooming."
Jiang Miaomiao still didn't give up, remembering that they had climbed the wall to eat cherries when they were in Jiangzhou.
"Sister Yuan, let's go to the princess's mansion next door to pick cherries. The cherries are red now, and if we don't pick them now, the magpies will eat them all."
Princess Rong'an shook her head. Princess Yuqing's residence was next door, and she didn't want to go there either.
"Sister Yuan, how about I accompany you back to the Cui family to see Uncle Cui?" Miaomiao hadn't seen Cui Yan for a long time.
Having just found out that Cui Yan is her biological father, she inexplicably wants to know more about him.
Her parents don't seem to get along well.
Daddy seems to be hiding from Princess Mother.
Princess Rong'an was stunned for a moment and said, "Let's not go back yet."
Miaomiao wanted to ask something, but Sister Yuan covered her mouth with her hand and said, "Miaomiao, it's time to practice your calligraphy. Your mother will come back to check it.
Jiang Miaomiao: ...
Woo woo woo... I don't want to practice calligraphy, I want to go out!
"Sister Yuan, let's write a letter to Big Brother. You can write it."
“Okay… okay.”
"Sister Yuan, please be my sister-in-law."
Princess Rong'an's face turned red all the way to her ears.
Jiang Miaomiao saw her mother receive a letter early in the morning. It was about her eldest brother. After reading the letter, her mother walked around the room.
Then A Niang went back to discuss it with her grandmother.
Miaomiao felt that her mother must not know how to ask Sister Yuan. She couldn't just ask her sister if she liked her son.
Let her ask this question.
It is said that children speak without restraint.
Sister Yuan wouldn't be so embarrassed in front of a child.
Princess Rong'an picked up the round fan, concealed the shyness on her face, and looked at the innocent little guy beside her.
The little girl fiddled with her chess pieces carelessly.
He didn't even look at her.
Princess Rong'an felt much more relaxed and began to inquire intentionally or unintentionally.
"Why did Miaomiao say that?"
Jiang Miaomiao stopped what she was doing, raised her little face, and said seriously: "Early this morning, my mother received a letter about my elder brother..."
Speaking of her elder brother, Princess Rong'an looked a little nervous.
Miaomiao continued truthfully, "My eldest brother said he likes you and wants my mother to propose to your mother. Sister Yuan, are you willing to be my sister-in-law?"
Princess Rong'an lowered her head shyly, almost covering her entire face with a round fan.
I have to say that this ancient fan is really good.
It can be used to cool down, swat mosquitoes, catch butterflies, and it has the most important function.
That can also cover up shame.
Miaomiao could hardly see the expression on Sister Yuan's face.
But I knew she was willing.
Princess Rong'an didn't pay any attention to little Miaomiao's curious eyes and went back to her room to write a letter to her mother.
As soon as Lu Qingyao received the letter, she hurried back to her parents' home.
He handed the letter to Madam Lu, "Mom, do you think this can be accomplished?"
When she was in Jiangzhou, she knew that Princess Rong'an was interested in Feng'er, but there was a huge difference in their status, and Feng'er was not yet enlightened at that time.
I didn't expect that after only two years away from home, he would directly ask to marry a girl.
After all, I have grown up.
But marrying a princess is marrying up, and it's not just a little bit.
Princess Rong'an is not like an ordinary princess. She is the emperor's cousin and Princess Yuqing's aunt. Her status is no different from that of a princess.
Although she was on good terms with Princess Liang, their dealings were mostly business.
Princess Liang entrusted her daughter to her because she trusted her.
But as soon as he arrived, he kidnapped the girl.
This inevitably makes people think that she is greedy and trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.
So Lu Qingyao was frightened.
Old Madam Lu was not worried about the problem of marrying up, but she was worried that her eldest grandson would compete with others for his wife.
She held her daughter's hand and said, "Yaoyao, if you really want to ask for Princess Rong'an to marry Feng'er, there is something I must tell you. You must be prepared to offend the powerful."
"Offending the powerful?"
Lu Qingyao didn't understand.
How can marrying a daughter-in-law have to offend the powerful? Whether they agree or not is just a matter of a word from Princess Liang.
But he also felt that it was very unusual for Princess Rong'an to return to the capital this time. She seemed to be very worried and had deliberately hidden her whereabouts.
Madam Lu said, "I had tea with your Aunt Mu yesterday, and she told me something about Princess Rong'an. Your Aunt Mu went to the palace a few days ago and happened to meet Princess Fengwu in the Empress Dowager's palace. The princess was asking the Empress Dowager for a marriage."
"Arranged marriage?" Lu Qingyao's heart trembled.
Princess Fengwu is the emperor's cousin. She grew up under the empress dowager's care. She was personally conferred a princess by the late emperor and has one son.
Could it be that he is arranging a marriage between Prince Yuan and Princess Rong'an?
Oh no! My daughter-in-law was kidnapped.
Alas! This is like competing with the princess for a daughter-in-law, which is really offending the powerful.
"Did the Queen Mother agree?"
"The Empress Dowager's intention is to let Princess Fengwu speak to Princess Liang herself. If Princess Liang agrees, then the Emperor will grant the marriage."
Lu Qingyao stood up and walked around the room several times.
Then he stopped in front of Old Lady Lu and asked, "Mother, do you think my son can still get married?"
"Please, I will go with you to plead. If one family has a daughter, hundreds of families will plead. If her princess can plead, we can plead too." Old Mrs. Lu always felt that her family was wronged and had suffered so much in exile for many years.
The anger that has been pent up in my heart has not yet subsided.
I have to marry a princess to my eldest grandson to take care of the family.
Besides, Princess Fengwu was a domineering and arrogant person, not to mention Prince Yuan.
The number one playboy in the capital.
Just relying on the care that the two elders of the Cui family give to her daughter and grandson.
We can't let the little princess fall into the fire pit either.
