Lin Zizi reluctantly laughed and said, âThough thatâs true, I canât stand to see her suffer like this.â
Madam sighed, âYeah, children are a motherâs heart and soul. Seventh Miss is so delicate that an ordinary scrape pains us. How could we be indifferent to her undergoing such torment?â
âAlright, itâs not a big deal,â
Jiang Mubai said in a loud voice as he patted Jiang Ningâs head. âWhatâs this little thing for Jiang familyâs children? If you want the Prince of Yu to become the Crown Prince, let him.â
âBrotherâ¦â Lin Zizi shook her head.
Madam said, âOld Master, donât say these things to the child. Let her recover well, she need not worry about anything. After all, itâs only one hundred days to heal the bones, just three months. By that time, sheâll be fine. Seventh Miss, rest assured, weâre all here for you.â
She turned to Lin Zizi and said, âYouâve never been in good health, and with two children at your place, can you manage? Why not bring them to my place?â
Lin Zizi said, âNo need, Ms. Liu and Ms. Bai are helping me at home.â
âWell, Ms. Liu has always been a force to be reckoned with. I shouldnât be saying too much about your sideâs affairs, but now that youâre better, stand on your own. Donât let the insolent take control, itâs disheartening.â
âYes, I will remember,â Lin Zizi said gently.
âIf anything happens, just let me know. No matter what happens outside, weâre family when we come home. Donât be polite with me.â
âThank you, brother and sister-in-law.â
âWell, as we said, letâs not talk about these things as a family,â Madam held Lin Ziziâs hand. âLet Seventh Miss rest well. Iâll go with you to see the little Crown Prince and the little Princess.â
After reminding Jiang Ning a few more times, the two sisters-in-law left together.
Jiang Mubai and Jiang Ruobai, the two brothers, were about to leave, but Jiang Ning called them to stay.
âUncle, are you going to the palace now?â She asked.
âYes. I havenât seen His Majesty since I came back.â
âCan you help me inquire about the Prince of Yuâs situation?â
Jiang Ruobai said with jealousy, âYou donât ask your own father for such trivial matters, but ask for the help of outsiders.â
Jiang Mubai laughed and said, âDid you hear that? Your father said I was an outsider.â
âAre you saying youâre the father?â
âI am Jiang Seventh Daughterâs father, do you have a problem? Isnât Uncle also a father?â Jiang Mubai, although his name was scholarly, was a real military commander, and his speech was somewhat crude.
Jiang Ning chuckled.
Jiang Mubai said, âSeventh Miss, donât worry, not only will your father find out everything for you, but also get the Prince of Yu out. You just wait for him to come to see you.â
Jiang Ning immediately smiled obediently and said, âThank you, father!â
Jiang Ruobai:
He felt like he had been taken advantage ofâ¦
Little did Jiang Ning know, she said to Jiang Mubai, âGrandfather, I want to ask you for someone.â
âSay it,â Jiang Mubai was delighted as he glanced at his brother who was beaming at his title of âfather.â
Jiang Ning said, âI want Gucheng.â
âWhy do you want him?â
âIâd like him to follow me and protect me,â Jiang Ning said. âThe only useful person by my side is Xiaoman, given by my father. Sheâs loyal and strong, but not vigilant enough.â
In simple terms, sheâs not smart enough.
Jiang Ruobai coughed awkwardly.
Jiang Mubai glared at him, âDonât you have anyone useful to give her? You had to give her a foolish girl.â
âIf I had known these things would happen, how could I not give her someone?â Jiang Ruobai retorted irritably. âI gave her Xiaoman because sheâs a young girl, more convenient for personal attendance..â
