Jiang Ning laughed, “Auntie has a baby in her belly, but that won’t stop her from playing with you.”
Huang Ying beside her then asked with a smile, “Your Highness, do you think the baby in the Princess Consort’s belly is a brother or a sister?”
Li Tingqian bit his finger and took a few glances at Jiang Ning’s belly: “Um… Brother and sister.”
“Is it a brother or a sister?”
“Brother and sister.”
“Huang Ying, don’t ask anymore. He is still young and won’t understand what you’re saying.” Jiang Ning held Xiaoqian’s hand, “Where are you going?”
“Today is Father’s death anniversary, and I’ve paid my respects to him. Grandfather allowed me to go out and play.” Xiaoqian replied.
Seeing the innocent and childlike face, Jiang Ning smiled and said, “Little Auntie is hungry and wants to eat something. Does Xiaoqian know where the delicious food is?”
“I know, there’s a bun shop that’s especially delicious!” Xiaoqian volunteered enthusiastically, “Little Auntie, the shop is not far from here, let me push you there.”
He stood on his tiptoes, grabbed the wheelchair, and his eyes were blocked.
Huang Ying was amused and quickly took over the wheelchair.
The child looked a little disappointed.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, “Xiaoqian is a gentle and considerate child. The girl who marries you in the future will be very blessed.”
Xiaoqian’s cheeks turned red.
“You’re still too young. You should eat well and sleep well. When you grow up, you’ll be able to push Little Auntie’s wheelchair all by yourself.” Jiang Ning moved a little to the side, “Come, sit beside Little Auntie, and we’ll stroll around together.”
The wheelchair was wide, Jiang Ning was slender, and Xiaoqian was young and small.
The two of them could just about fit.
It was Xiaoqian’s first time wandering around in a wheelchair, and he was with his favorite Little Auntie. He found it very novel, embracing Little Auntie’s arm and looking around. Whenever he saw something he liked, he would point with his little hand.
Behind them, a large group of eunuchs and imperial guards followed. Whenever Xiaoqian pointed at something, someone would immediately go up and buy it for him.
In a short while, Xiaoqian was holding a bunch of food and toys. Jiang Ning also received a set of jewelry in the process.
Finally, they arrived at the bun shop Xiaoqian mentioned. After they entered, they ordered soup dumplings, placed them in a small plate, punctured the skin with chopsticks, sucked the soup, and then ate the deflated skin and filling together in one bite.
It was so delicious that their mouths were full of flavor.
Xiaoqian ate half of the dumplings in one go. Jiang Ning, fearing that he might overeat and have digestion problems, didn’t allow him to eat more.
The leftover dumplings were given to Huang Ying and Xiaoman.
In the Prince of Yu Residence, even though Li Hongyuan appeared indifferent, Chashan believed that as the most loyal and intimate follower of his master, he must understand his master’s true thoughts.
His master surely wanted to know who Jiang Ning met with this time.
So Chashan had someone follow them and report back.
After waiting for a long time, the person who shadowed them finally returned.
Chashan pulled him into a corner and asked, “Where is the Princess Consort?”
“In a bun shop, eating buns.”
“Eating again… How many people?”
“Four people.”
“Who else, apart from the Princess Consort and her two maids? Was it a man?” Chashan frowned.
“Yes… Kind of, but…”
“Isn’t it someone from our residence?”
“No, it’s not.”
“Isn’t it from the Gu Family?”
“Of course not.”
“Wenren Thirteen?”
“No.”
“A poor and ordinary scholar?”
“No, actually it’s…”
“I got it. You keep following!”
“But Master Chashan, I haven’t finished yet—”
The person had already walked away.
He scratched his head, thinking his response wasn’t problematic.
After all, the emperor’s eldest grandson was indeed male, not from the prince’s residence, and certainly not from the Gu Family..
