Because of the small incident that happened on New Year's Eve, Jiang Mihe and Lu Qing gradually became familiar with each other.
Although there is a big age difference between brother and sister Lan Ge'er and Yan Zheng'er, they get along very well. They play in a harmonious and friendly manner without arguing or arguing.
Jiang Mihe glanced at the simple snacks on the table and asked Lu Qing softly: "I heard that Princess Jin has reduced the number of people in your house by half? Can you still live well?"
Lu Qing's eyes were soft: "It got better later. After all, the war in Northern Xinjiang is more important."
It's a big matter of right and wrong, and it doesn't look good to cause trouble, so why not just go along with Ning Huayue's wishes and gain a good reputation.
"You're pretty open-minded." Jiang Mihe picked up a piece of snack and looked at the two children playing on the veranda, "I don't care about you, but Brother Lan can't be careless. It's okay for us adults to be frugal, but there's no need for children. I'll do it. I prepared some things when we arrived, they are all for Brother Lan, don’t refuse."
"Then I will accept it for Brother Lan. Thank you for thinking of Brother Lan." Lu Qing smiled tenderly, got up and went to the inner room to take out the clothes she made for Yan Zheng'er, "Spring has begun. The little princess is so beautiful, it’s time to dress up. I don’t have much to offer, so I’ll make some clothes to express my feelings. I hope you don’t mind it.”
The pink little skirt embroidered with flowers was exquisite and beautiful. Jiang Mihe couldn't put it down. She said generously: "You have worked hard. Zheng'er will definitely like such a beautiful little skirt. Your daughter will be blessed in the future. Mother made it with her own hands." so coincidental!"
Lu Qing's face turned red: "I don't dare to take it seriously. Just don't dislike me when the child is born."
Jiang Mihe frowned: "What are you talking about? Why do you dislike you? Who said that children are happy when they are reborn in the womb of a noble mother?"
She couldn't see Lu Qing belittling himself, so she added, "Look how well you raised Brother Lan? You loved him, loved him, cared about him, what did you do wrong?"
Lu Qing blushed at what she said.
In fact, the lower the family background, the more concerned about the gap in status. Lu Qing thought that she loved and protected Lange'er wholeheartedly, but she also thought that if the princess or the concubine gave birth to a son, her Lange'er would naturally be inferior to others.
Luqing didn't want Lan Ge'er to be wronged, but she couldn't change her identity.
When something she didn't care about appeared on her child, Lu Qing felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
But she couldn't tell others.
Finally, Jiang Mihe patted the back of Lu Qing's hand: "You have done a good job."
Who says that children born well will grow up well? Jiang Mihe shook his head when he thought about his husband.

When Jiang Mihe came to Jinxiyuan, Lan Geer's snacks were immediately full.
Guan Shasha had been sneaking around at the entrance of Jinqiyuan for a long time. When she noticed that the servants inside were carrying many things, she immediately squinted her eyes and counted them one by one.
Then, she ran to Tao Shanyuan and told Ji Mingzhu: "Concubine Wei has many good things. Did she spend money to buy them behind everyone's back?"
Ji Mingzhu was leaning on the beauty's couch and glanced at her after hearing this: "The Crown Princess came to her place, didn't you know?"
Guan Shasha paused: "Then she has so many things..."
"If you have pink eye, go get it treated! You are even more petty than Wei!" Ji Mingzhu was in a bad mood and turned her back to Guan Shasha.
After being scolded, Guan Shasha ran out of Taoshan Courtyard in shame and kicked the pebbles on the roadside angrily: "The Wei family is a concubine, how could the Crown Princess like her! Someone with a worse background than me , why are you living better than me!"
Although Shasha was angry, there was a time when Lu Qing, a maid, overpowered her!
Back at Qingxia Hall, Guan Shasha was still furious: "Wei, this wretched maid, why should she?!"
The maid Yingxue carefully served a cup of tea, then stood quietly aside, not daring to touch Sha Sha's bad luck.
Guan Shasha picked up the tea cup and smashed it hard. The overflowing tea burned her mouth.
"How do you make tea!" she yelled, Yingxue shrank her neck like a quail.
Guan Shasha found someone to vent her anger on. She pinched Yingxue's arms and cursed with a ferocious face: "You bitch! You bitch!"
In Qingxia Hall, when the servants heard the noise outside, they all turned away with drooped eyebrows, as if they were not surprised by such a scene.
The next day, Lu Qing was targeted by Guan Shasha in Yihongyuan.
She just bowed and sat down, and Guan Shasha, who was sitting opposite, sneered and stared at Lu Qing.
"Concubine Wei is very capable. She has a way of coaxing both men and women!"
The words were very unpleasant, and Ning Huayue and others remained silent as if they were watching a good show.
Lu Qing's face was calm and she replied coldly: "Concubine Guan is a compliment."
Guan Shasha continued to provoke: "Why don't you teach me how to coax the Crown Princess? A little benefit from the Crown Princess will be enough for your Jinxiyuan to live a good life. I also want to be like you!"
Lu Qing smiled: "You can't teach me, you don't have children."
She also underestimated Guan Shasha's jealousy. The princess cared about Brother Lan, and even if she sent something over, Guan Shasha would get angry.
In this case, Lu Qing didn't intend to talk to her properly.
"Princess Jianing and Brother Lan are destined to have a good relationship with each other. If Concubine Guan wants to imitate me, she might as well think about having children first." Lu Qing suggested in a soft tone, smiling eyes. It looks very harmless.
But who doesn't know that Yan Fuguang has not set foot in Qingxia Hall for almost more than a year, even if Shasha is in front of him, he may not recognize who this person is.
Guan Shasha was stabbed in the lungs and her hair exploded: "Is it great to have a son? You mean, the princess and the others are not as good as you?!"
"That's not what I meant." Lu Qing sat upright and whispered softly, "After all, the princess and the two concubines are from good backgrounds and have good vision. Unlike the concubine, the princess has to worry about every little thing she gives Brother Lan. Don’t you think you’d like a share of those toys and snacks from Lan Ge’er?”
Guan Shasha held on to her and said, "If you give birth to a son, you will be busy raising your tail. It seems that Concubine Wei is very confident and doesn't take other sisters seriously!"
Ning Huayue helped: "Your Majesty is young, and there will only be more and more children in the house. Concubine Wei should be modest and low-key, so as not to make you unable to bear the gap in the future."
Lu Qing responded: "The Princess is right, I have nothing to be proud of, but what the Crown Princess gave Brother Lan won't make Concubine Guan jealous, right?"
Ning Huayue stopped talking.
There was a hint of contempt in Lu Qing's eyes, she raised the corners of her mouth, and a crisp laughter overflowed from her red lips: "It seems that the princess also has objections. There is no other way. I will go back and discuss with Brother Lan and let him Share a portion of the snacks and send a portion to both Yihongyuan and Qingxiatang."
"So, you should be satisfied, right?"
