“Let’s stay up late today. After our meal, Daddy will take you to the banquet.” Xiang Minghou held her and sat at the table.

“Going to a banquet?”

“Yes, early this morning the old prince of the Prince Helian’s Mansion had someone send a post. It’s his 70th birthday, I haven’t been to the capital for several years, and I was caught right after returning.” Xiang Minghou dislikes flattery, especially flattery from the officials.

“Daddy wants to take me?” Ye Qianning felt that it was more or less inappropriate to bring her.

“Of course, why am I hiding my daughter? I want everyone to see how cute my daughter is.” At this moment, Xiang Minghou wanted to show off to everyone.

“……”

This was what so called baby-showing off mania……

“Let’s finish our meal, then we will prepare a gift afterward.” Xiang Minghou said.

Mrs. Liu put all of Ye Qianning’s favorite foods on a plate and made a small pile.

Ye Qianning nodded her head and raised her hand to tug on Xiang Minghou’s beard: “Daddy, that’s Nanny Si.”

Only then did Xiang Minghou notice his surroundings and look at Nanny Si.

“Greetings to the general.” Nanny Si noticed and she knelt down.

Xiang Minghou hurriedly stood up, put Ye Qianning on the chair, bent down to help Nanny Si: “Get up quickly, get up.”

“Thank you, General.” Nanny Si was greatly flattered.

“We are family members, don’t be like this. It’s been hard on you all these years with Pangtuan.” Xiang Minghou was truly grateful, the granny was so old and had traveled so far with the child.

If it weren’t for her, how would he have a lovely daughter?

“It’s not arduous at all, as long as Pangtuan is well taken care of, it is worth it.” Nanny Si was genuinely treating Pangtuan as her granddaughter.

“Come, Nanny Si, take your seat.” Xiang Minghou invited the old woman to a seat: “In the future, you will live in the mansion peacefully. If there is anything you need, feel free to tell me.”

Nanny Si sat down and felt that Pangtuan’s father was really not a bad person, but he looked a bit fierce. Suddenly, she thought he was a general on the battlefield. A handsome man couldn’t defeat enemies, so it was better to be more fierce.

When dinner was over, Nanny Si had a new perception of Xiang Minghou, and her concerns yesterday were completely dissolved.

Mrs. Liu also had a new understanding of Xiang Minghou. They all said that the general killed people without emotion, but the general’s expression in front of them was almost overflowing with affections.

Ye Qianning also felt the atmosphere was very harmonious. Yesterday, the weasel was talking about Mrs. Liu. She then looked at her.

Mrs. Liu noticed her gaze and smiled slightly.

She was a poor person, Ye Qianning sighed. No wonder she was cautious in her words and actions. She was born in poverty and was bought to do chongxi*. When she did the wedding ceremony, the groom was replaced by a rooster* instead at the wedding hall.

-rooster

*Chongxi: is a kind of folk belief behavior where a patient who has been ill for a long time marries someone in order to get rid of bad luck or to cure diseases.

*It is not that the bride is wed with a rooster, but if a groom couldn’t be present at his wedding, people would take a rooster to represent him, and place it alongside the bride while conducting the wedding ceremony. 

When Xiang Minghou was seriously injured, she worked hard to take care of him. Later, when his condition improved, Xiang Minghou learned about Chongxi.

Xiang Minghou had been fighting on battlefields these years and had never returned home, so Mrs. Liu only had a title of wife in the house, and anyone could bully her.

Seeing Mrs. Liu’s expression, she also genuinely liked Xiang Minghou. Ye Qianning felt that she could help them build a connection in the future.

After breakfast, Xiang Minghou carried Ye Qianning out of the mansion. A group of people from his brother, Xiang Mingli’s family, came and wanted to congratulate him with gifts, but they didn’t see a single person. So they brought back the gifts.

Nanny Si and the others shook their heads when they saw it, they were so petty!

The streets of the capital city were very lively. Originally, Xiang Minghou wanted to go to the jade shop to pick out a few decent birthday gifts, but as soon as he got to the street, he completely forgot that he was going to pick out birthday gifts. Instead, he went to a street stall and busily tried a lot of stuff.

“Daughter, what do you think of this? It makes a sound when you blow it.” After speaking, Xiang Minghou picked it up and blew it.

Ye Qianning shook her head: “Dad, these are all children’s toys. I’m already six years old.”
