Chapter 188 Everyone has their own opinion!
the next day.
The Imperial Palace was quiet, the State Guesthouse was quiet, and even an inn somewhere was quiet...
But today is Nan Qiao's fourth birthday party, so this brief moment of peace is destined to be broken sooner or later...
The first place to break the silence was the state guesthouse used by Anguo to entertain distinguished guests.
Today is her granddaughter's birthday party. Princess Zhennan got up early in the morning to look for her little Jiaojiao. After searching everywhere, she couldn't find the cute little figure. After asking around, she found out that the two unreliable guys had forgotten to bring the child back from the party yesterday.
Princess Zhennan was immediately annoyed. It was fine that you guys just loved each other so much and ignored your child during normal times, but now that you finally got to spend a few days with your child, how could you be so heartless?
Princess Zhennan went to her daughter and son-in-law's residence and was about to knock on the door to question them, but as soon as she raised her hand, the door was opened from the inside.
Jiang Yuwan, who came out yawning, was stunned when she saw the lady's mother, and her eyes were obviously a little panicked...
Could it be that my mother knows what happened last night and is blaming me?
[Xiaobai: Hahaha, typical guilty conscience!]
But this shouldn't be the case! They haven't even left the room since they came back, and the people serving outside are all trained and shouldn't say anything.
How did the princess know that?
But apart from that incident, there shouldn't be anything else that would make my mother so angry so early in the morning!
Thinking about what happened yesterday, Jiang Yuwan was annoyed, but she still felt a little guilty when she thought about Nan Xi lying unconscious on the bed...
Especially when he met his mother's angry eyes, the guilty conscience the size of a fingernail was instantly magnified many times.
She seemed to have gone a little too far last night...
After all, Xier's body had just recovered a little, and the madness of this night must have made her extremely tired. But when she thought of the scene of catching someone yesterday, Jiang Yuwan felt that she deserved it.
If she hadn't secretly gone to Nanfeng Pavilion with someone, he wouldn't have ignored her objections and repeatedly... ahem...
But this is not the time to think about these things. Seeing the anger in the eyes of Princess Zhennan, Jiang Yuwan quickly spoke:
"Good morning, mother. What brings you to us so early?"
Jiang Yuwan's inner thoughts: Please don't let it be because of what happened yesterday! Please don't let it be because of what happened yesterday!
Princess Zhennan, who didn't know that Jiang Yuwan had spent a ridiculous night with her daughter, was still very satisfied with Jiang Yuwan as her daughter-in-law.
Except for caring less about Jiaojiao, Wan'er is very good to her daughter, her and the prince.
Princess Zhennan was still a little angry when she thought about how these two people abandoned the child in the Anguo Palace where they were unfamiliar with the place yesterday.
Looking at the high sun, the upset Princess Zhennan wanted to ask, it's still early, is it late only when the sun sets?
"You guys were too... too..."
Princess Zhennan shook her head and glanced at the servants serving in the yard. Considering her daughter and daughter-in-law's face, she did not directly accuse them of neglecting the child.
However, this made Jiang Yuwan, who was already feeling guilty, misunderstand even more thoroughly.
I thought some talkative guy accidentally leaked what happened in the wife's bedroom, and my mother happened to hear it.
His face immediately turned red, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and whispered:
"Mom, I know I was wrong. I won't mess around next time."
In front of the Princess of Zhennan, Jiang Yuwan put away all her tactics and fierceness, like an ordinary junior who got into trouble and was scolded, she was very obedient...
Jiang Yuwan thought that after she said this, even if the princess was dissatisfied, she would not continue the topic.
Unfortunately...the two of them have never been on the same channel.
When Princess Zhennan heard her admit her mistake, she thought she had finally realized her neglect of her daughter, and immediately nodded with relief.
However, when she looked at the closed door behind Yuwan, Princess Zhennan's dissatisfaction surged up again:
"Has Xi'er not finished packing yet? Today is Jiaojiao's birthday, how can she be so lazy?"
Jiang Yuwan was stunned when she heard that the princess was still harping on this topic.
Is it not enough to admit your mistakes? Do you still have to state your crimes one by one? Isn't that bad?
However, when she saw the dissatisfaction in the eyes of Princess Zhennan, Jiang Yuwan accepted her fate.
Glancing around, Jiang Yuwan pushed open the door behind her with a mournful face, grinned, revealing a smile uglier than crying, and invited the princess:
"Mom, let's go inside and talk."
The cunning Jiang Yuwan thought it through very comprehensively. If her mother was really angry with her for not taking the seriousness of her behavior last night, then she would honestly admit her guilt and ask for punishment.
However, compared to being outside where there were many people and eyes, she still felt that it was better to be inside. At least she wouldn't embarrass herself outside.
Princess Zhennan had no idea what Jiang Yuwan was thinking and just thought that her daughter had not packed up yet, so she followed Jiang Yuwan into the house.
But when she entered the room, she did not see her daughter. After taking a quick look around, the princess opened the door of the inner room and saw her daughter sleeping so soundly that even thunder could not wake her up.
As a result, the anger of Princess Zhennan, which had just dissipated, instantly rose again. Her eyes were like searchlights, staring at the back of her daughter's head, wishing she could slap her off the bed.
It's so late and you're still sleeping? Aren't you too worry-free as a mother?
If you don't want to have children and don't care about them, does that mean you will even miss the annual birthday party?
However, thinking that his daughter was grown up after all, and in front of his daughter-in-law, he could not lose face like before. He immediately took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Yuwan who was standing obediently beside him, and said with a look of disappointment:
"Don't spoil Xi'er too much. Look at what time it is, and she still hasn't gotten up. Today..."
Perhaps because of her age, Princess Zhennan was still chattering non-stop, while the person on the bed was still sleeping soundly with her back to them.
Jiang Yuwan, who was being lectured, always felt that her mother was using this as an excuse to point fingers at her, and she felt more and more guilty, more and more guilty...
Seeing her mother getting more and more excited, Jiang Yuwan made up her mind and knelt down directly:
"Mother Wan'er knows I was wrong. If you are angry, then punish me. Please don't get yourself hurt by being angry."
Princess Zhennan, who was chattering away, was stunned by this sudden move. It was as if the whole person had been paused. After reacting, she quickly bent down and helped Jiang Yuwan up:
"Hey...what are you doing? Get up!"
"I'm not angry with you. Look at Xier, she doesn't act like a mother at all. You two are really... I won't say anything more. I won't say anything about you in the future." Princess Zhennan said with a distressed look on her face as she helped Jiang Yuwan to sit on the chair in the outer hall.
She had never seen the child so guilty before, and thought that her words just now were a bit too harsh.
Princess Zhennan shook her head, her face full of guilt.
Little did she know that Jiang Yuwan was much more panicked than her. What did her mother mean by this?
Did he stop blaming himself, or did he become even angrier?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuwan became even more uneasy.
Princess Zhennan and Jiang Yuwan sat facing each other across a small felt table. Both of them had complicated thoughts at the moment, only Nan Xi on the bed was sleeping soundly!
In the end, Princess Zhennan couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere anymore, so she found an excuse and left...
Jiang Yuwan rubbed her face, which was stiff with embarrassment, and sat on the chair for a while before getting up and providing a gentle wake-up call to the person on the bed...
