Chapter 710 Regret Not Being Changed
Prince Jing turned around and said to Jing Chunxi, "Girl Xi, you are a great contributor to Prince Jing's mansion. Hurry up and ask your grandmother for some good things."
"Grandma, Miss Xi won't be polite then." Jing Chunxi said as she stretched out her hands with a mischievous expression, which made everyone laugh again.
Jing Qiurong finally felt relieved and pulled her hand back from Jing Yi's palm.
Princess Jing smiled and took a heavy jewelry box from the maid beside her and handed it to Jing Chunxi.
Jing Chunxi took the jewelry box but didn't open it immediately, but she could sense that the items inside were of great value. She quickly took two steps back, held the jewelry box in her hands, bowed again, and said respectfully, "Thank you, Grandma." Her voice was filled with immense surprise and gratitude.
After receiving the gift from Prince Jing, Jing Chunxi turned around and wanted to go to Ling'er, but Chuntao stepped forward and took the thing from his hand.
A voice suddenly rang out from behind, "How much do you dislike your uncle? You won't kowtow or pay your respects? The gifts from the prince and the princess haven't been sent out yet!"
Prince Hong's voice suddenly sounded from behind. He pretended to be very aggrieved, which made Ling'er giggle and call him "Father" twice in a row.
Jing Chunxi turned around suddenly and walked back, "Haha, it's true! My master said,"
Jing Chunxi suddenly realized that it was inappropriate to address Jing Yi like that, and quickly changed the subject, "Dad said that uncle gave us a big gift, and Xi girl is waiting for it."
Although the word "Daddy" was not directly addressed to Jing Yi, it still surprised and moved Jing Yi, who was sitting next to Jing Qiurong. He looked at Jing Chunxi's back, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He regretted not bringing the gift of changing his name.
Pu Ge'er was sitting there, suddenly stunned, and felt a little depressed.
He had talked a lot with his sister about his mother and "him" these days, but his sister never told him about changing her address to "Daddy". He thought his sister would not change her address to "Daddy" but would continue to call him Master.
Unexpectedly, his sister didn't even say hello to him and called him "Daddy" before him.
He was so angry! If he had known earlier, he would have been the first to call out "Daddy" before his sister. After thinking about it, he deliberately glanced at his father, and found that his father was not looking at him intentionally, and he felt a little better.
Jing Chunxi didn't care what Pu Ge'er was thinking, but waved at him. Pu Ge'er immediately understood and stood over.
The two of them bowed to Prince Hong as an elder and shouted in unison: "Uncle, how are you? Xi'er (Pu'er) is here to greet you."
"Hey! Hey! That's right! Take it, this is Pu Ge'er's, and this is Xi Jie'er's."
Prince Hong took two exquisite rosewood boxes, one large and one small, from the servant and handed them to Jing Chunxi and Pu Ge'er respectively.
The two accepted the gifts and thanked him again and again.
Prince Hong didn't let them go immediately, but continued, "Your aunt said that there aren't many selected this time because she doesn't know what Xi'er likes. Next time you enter the mansion, let Ling'er take you to her storeroom to choose whatever you want."
After saying this, Jing Chunxi glanced at Ling'er and saw her winking at her, then biting her lip and nodded at her.
"I won't be polite to that girl."
Jing Chunxi acted very happy, hugged the big wooden box and gave it a big kiss.
This action was so funny that not only did she couldn't help laughing, but it also made everyone else laugh.
They had never expected that the situation of the family reunion would be so relaxed and cheerful, completely different from the restraint, uneasiness and even possible mistakes they had imagined.
Next, Ling'er met her third uncle and aunt and received their gifts. She behaved very well and performed the greetings in a very standard way, bowing once for each gift she received.
Then the three children got to know each other. Jing Chunxi took the lead, and the three of them called each other sister and brother in a friendly manner, showing great affection.
Seeing the three of them gathered together, Princess Jing's eyes turned red. Tears flashed in her eyes, and her heart was filled with emotion.
Seeing this, Prince Jing gently comforted his wife, "Why are you crying? You already have three grandchildren, and your eldest son's wife is holding another one! How many more do you want in the future?"
There was a hint of teasing in his voice, but also a strong sense of love. After Prince Jing finished speaking, he pointed meaningfully at Jing Qiurong and Jing Yi, his eyes full of expectation.
Jing Qiurong felt a little shy when he looked at her, and quickly leaned towards Jing Yi, but then she felt something was wrong, and quickly sat up straight. Although she looked in the direction of the old man, her face turned red again.
But in Jing Yi's opinion, her every move exuded a charm that was rare in young women and had a unique style.
He - likes it!
……
After everyone sat down at the table, the atmosphere gradually became warm and quiet.
Prince Jing cleared his throat, his eyes swept over everyone in turn, finally landing on Jing Qiurong and Jing Yi, and then he slowly said: "I believe everyone is clear about the current situation. Even Chun'er can't enter the residence with dignity, your mother and I..."
After a few words, he paused before continuing, "I really can't give you a grand wedding. I can only do my best to follow all the etiquette, make this marriage legitimate, and let our ancestors know that we have a new member of our family."
He paused, then continued, "According to the auspicious date we selected earlier, in eight days, we will find a suitable reason to give those irrelevant servants a day off."
"You two should bring the children into the mansion and burn incense first to pay respect to our ancestors. This is our family tradition and a sign of respect for our ancestors. After the worship, we will have a family reunion dinner. You must stay at the mansion for one night. Only then will the ceremony be considered complete."
At this point, Prince Jing said to Prince Hong with a somewhat depressed look, "That ungrateful bastard stopped me from renovating Chun'er's yard. Isn't it used now?"
As soon as he said this, everyone's faces darkened and they could no longer laugh when they thought of the man who had betrayed his ancestors and was so cruel as to even kill his own brother.
How could this incident affect everyone's mood and change the joyful atmosphere? Prince Hong immediately smiled and flattered Prince Jing: "Father is so wise and foresighted. He had predicted that my third brother would return at this time. That courtyard is really well built. My third brother and his wife will definitely feel comfortable living there."
Jing Qiurong, who was sitting next to Princess Jing, saw that her mother-in-law's eyes were red again and she looked like she was about to cry. She quickly put her arm around her shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Mother, don't be sad. Everything will be fine in the future. Everything will slowly get better." Her voice was very low, but as gentle as a breeze, as if it could dispel all the haze.
Princess Jing nodded repeatedly and tried to force a smile: "Yes, yes, you are back, and the whole family is together. Good! Everything will be fine." Her voice was a little choked, but her dim eyes were full of relief and expectation.
