“I know.”
“I just don’t know what they’re up to.” Jiang Yi frowned, “According to the current situation, Prince Yu is very likely to be named as the Crown Prince. Once he becomes the Crown Prince, he will definitely have to choose a new Princess Consort. Seventh Sister, will you feel regretful?”
“Whoever loves the throne of Princess Consort can take it, as if the Harem is a good place to be.”
“If you think that way, it’s for the better.” Jiang Yi smiled, “I never approved of you marrying into the royal family anyway. However, once Prince Yu enters the East Palace, the two children will have to live there too, it’s impossible to keep them outside.”
Jiang Ning remained silent.
Her children were her weakness.
She missed them even if she didn’t see them for a day.
She couldn’t imagine being separated from her children.
In that case, it would be best if Li Hongyuan was not the Crown Prince.
But whether he becomes the Crown Prince or not, she doesn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore.
She avoids him like the plague.
Seeing her weary expression, Jiang Yi said, “If there’s nothing else, Seventh
Sister, you should rest. I must hurry back.”
“Third Brother, drink less alcohol, it’s not good for your health.”
“As expected, my sister is the best, knowing to care for her brother.” Jiang Yi smiled, “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”
He hurriedly left.
Jiang Ning sat alone for a moment, waiting for her emotions to calm down before asking Xiaoman to bring in the wheelchair.
She sat in the wheelchair and returned to the front room.
The broken bracelet had been picked up and placed on the table.
“It’s such a pity; this beautiful bracelet is broken into three pieces.” Huang Ying sighed, “I searched for a long time, but I couldn’t find a small missing piece.”
“It’s okay.”
Jiang Ning took out her handkerchief, wrapped the bracelet in it, and called Xiachu, “Go find Uncle Fu and ask him to take it to a shop outside and find a master to see if the bracelet can be repaired, no matter the cost.”
Xiachu took the bracelet and left.
For now, they could only try to fix it as best as they could.
Hopefully, it could be repaired.
Jiang Ning felt she let Wenren Zong down.
He went to great lengths to give it to her, and it was broken in just half a day.
A few days later, when they met again, Jiang Ning showed Wenren Zong the bracelet, “I’m sorry, I broke it.”
Wenren Zong took a look and smiled, “It’s just a bracelet; no big deal. I’ll get you an even better one next time.”
“Aren’t you going to ask why it broke?”
“Just be careful in the future and don’t bump into things. Breaking a bracelet is minor, but if you hurt yourself, what will we do?” Wenren Zong held her hand, “After I left last time, I regretted it for a long time.”
“What do you regret?”
“I shouldn’t have taken you for a walk by the lake. It was so cold, and you are weak. I should have considered your well-being more carefully.”
“It’s okay.” Jiang Ning gently withdrew her hand.
Wenren Zong bent down and squatted in front of the wheelchair, looking up at her, “Ningning, I want to send someone to propose to your family.”
“Propose?”
“Yes, I want to propose to your parents and ask for their permission to marry you as my wife.” Wenren Zong said gently, “But before that, I want to ask you first – are you willing to marry me?”
Jiang Ning gazed into his gentle eyes for a long while before looking away.
Wenren Zong held her hand, “Ningning, I will treat you well. I will only marry you, and there will be no other women. I want to make you laugh every day and never let you cry.”
“Thirteen, I haven’t thought about this matter yet.” Jiang Ning withdrew her hand.
“Ningning, I know this is a bit rushed, but I truly like you.” Wenren Zong held her hand tightly, “From the first moment I saw you, I liked you. When the Imperial Edict sent you back to Prince Yu’s Mansion, I thought I’d never have a chance. But now, it seems our fate has brought us together. I don’t want to lose this opportunity again..”
