Chapter 347 I Don’t Like It Now

The marriage was discussed by the Jing Wang couple and the Chu family couple, and Xuanyuan Qi and Chu Hongyi participated in the whole process. After nearly an hour of discussion, Xuanyuan Qi was generally satisfied - if this was an attitude of his mother to show her softness, and if she really accepted Chu Hongyi and stopped making other troubles.

After the elders of both sides finished speaking, they were obviously very satisfied with the results of the discussion, and they were very happy with each other.

Especially the younger generation did not interrupt in such an occasion, did not give face to the parents of both sides, and cooperated throughout the process, making people feel that they were particularly sensible.

Prince Jing smiled and said to the head of the Chu family, "It's been a long time since we had a good drink together. Why don't I be thick-skinned today..."

"What are you talking about?" Prince Jing was interrupted by the head of the Chu family before he finished speaking, "You are busy, and it's rare for you to come to my house. I have to treat you well?"

He quickly ordered the servants to prepare wine and food, and specifically asked them to take out the best aged wine in the house for the treat. Then the two brothers went to the study to discuss business.

Mrs. Chu saw that Princess Jing had something to say to Xuanyuan Qi and Chu Hongyi, so she took the servants to the kitchen to see, and personally prepared wine and food. Chu Xuanyi also left quickly.

In a blink of an eye, only the mother and son and Chu Hongyi were left in the hall.

"I heard about what happened in the palace today." Princess Jing said in a light tone, "What Fang Lanyi did was too unreliable, and your cousin was really outrageous. I will remind her to have less contact with Miss Fang in the future."

Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows.

Have less contact with Fang Lanyi?

If her mother had not repeatedly expressed her love for Fang Lanyi, Ji Wan'er would not have been pushed out by Fang Lanyi to be used as a gun.

"Hongyi." Princess Jing took Chu Hongyi's hand and said apologetically, "It was my prejudice in the past that caused you a lot of unhappiness. I will definitely do a good job for you this wedding, and promise that after entering the palace, no one will dare to make things difficult for you. Whether Qi'er wants to take a concubine in the future is also your own business. I won't ask-"

"What do you mean by 'taking a concubine is our own business'?" Xuanyuan Qi frowned, "Do I look like someone who would take a concubine?"

Princess Jing paused and said, "I said I won't ask. If you want to take a concubine, take it. If you don't want to take a concubine, it's up to you. Isn't this okay?"

Chu Hongyi narrowed her eyes slightly and fell on her hands. I don't like to have physical contact with people other than Xuanyuan Qi, but this person is Xuanyuan Qi's mother...

"Hongyi." Princess Jing ignored her son and carefully looked at Chu Hongyi's heroic eyebrows, "She is so handsome."

Xuanyuan Qi: "..."

Chu Hongyi pursed her lips and was silent for a moment, then said lightly: "Thank you."

"I will have someone clean up the best courtyard in the palace when I go back this afternoon and make it a new house for you to get married-"

"No need." Xuanyuan Qi said lightly, "I am used to living in Hongchen Garden, and we don't plan to get married in Jingwang Mansion."

Princess Jing said lightly: "I am talking to Hongyi, can you please not interrupt?"

Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows.

Chu Hongyi glanced at him, and her eyes quickly fell back on Princess Jing's hand: "I really didn't--"

"I'll have someone buy some new furniture and things these two days. You can tell me if you need anything." Princess Jing looked at Chu Hongyi's belly, "I'll make some small clothes for the child when I have time. It's estimated that it should be born next summer, so make some summer clothes and shoes, and buy more baby toys. After the marriage, you just need to rest assured to take care of the baby, let Qi'er take good care of you, and when the child is born, I will take care of the child for you, and you can continue to hold your military power. The prince and I don't intend to interfere in your affairs. Do you think this is okay?"

Xuanyuan Qi said indifferently: "This is between Hongyi and me, we will--"

"I'm talking to my daughter-in-law." Princess Jing glanced at him indifferently, "Can you be quiet for a while?"

Xuanyuan Qi didn't want to endure it anymore, so he pulled Hongyi over and looked at his mother with a provocative look: "This is my Wife. "

Princess Jing watched Chu Hongyi being pulled away by him, her hands froze for a moment, and then she slowly adjusted her sleeves: "Your father has already negotiated the marriage with your father-in-law. If you really want to upset him on the big day and make everyone look bad, you can do whatever you want. "

Xuanyuan Qi said in a light tone: "Mother, don't you like the girl from the Fang family?"

Princess Jing said: "I don't like her now, is it okay?"

"Okay, of course." Xuanyuan Qi said in a light tone, "But my wife is free to live wherever she wants in the future. She is pregnant, and the imperial physician said that she should keep a happy mood, not be angry, and pay more attention to rest, so it is probably impossible to do morning and evening visits, and I decided that after the marriage, I will accompany her to sleep until the sun shines on her butt every day-"

"Xuanyuan Qi." Chu Hongyi frowned and said in a light voice, "Shut up."

Xuanyuan Qi silently shut his mouth.

Princess Jing was so angry that she said coldly, "I know my daughter-in-law and my grandson, and I don't need you to remind me."

"Maybe it's a granddaughter." Xuanyuan Qi said, "I prefer daughters."

Princess Jing was repeatedly scolded, and she couldn't stand it no matter how good her temper was, "Xuanyuan Qi, you are so presumptuous."

"Princess, don't argue with him." Chu Hongyi finally spoke, her voice was light and calm, "The prince and princess only have him as their legitimate son. If you can accept me, we are willing to get married in the Prince Jing's Mansion, but please consider it carefully and don't compromise for the sake of the child."

Princess Jing frowned slightly.

Chu Hongyi said calmly: "My personality is not pleasing, I know it myself, and I will not change it for anyone. If the princess wants me to be submissive like other girls, I probably can't do it. After getting married, the best way to get along is for me to maintain the courtesy of the younger generation to the prince and princess, and to get along with each other without interfering with each other. I also hope that the princess will try not to influence our lifestyle."

After hearing this, Princess Jing was silent for a moment.

To be honest, this is why she has never liked Chu Hongyi. She doesn't know how to be tactful, she is too straightforward and cold, her temperament is completely lacking in the gentleness and obedience that girls should have nowadays, and she doesn't know how to please in a roundabout way when speaking in front of the elders. If Qi'er didn't like it, she wouldn't tell her son about such a marriage.

However, as Prince Jing said, their son likes it, which is something she can't control. If she doesn't want to have a bad relationship with her son, she must accept the fact that Chu Hongyi is her daughter-in-law.

Besides, the girl from the Fang family is not as good as she imagined.

Whether it was the intentional or unintentional provocation in front of her that day, or what happened in the palace today, Princess Jing understood this point.
