The concubine's favorite? Break off the engagement and marry another prince, please respect you

Chapter 169

Dressed in a moon-white robe with wide sleeves, Xie Yanyu, who was one year older, stood on the steps of the courtyard. He was as handsome as ever, with the bright moon in his arms.

The brother and sister had not seen each other for a long time. Xie Wan Ning had forgotten how angry she was with her brother that day. When she saw him coming, her face suddenly brightened and she greeted him happily.

Walking closer, she sniffed and asked, "Brother, have you been drinking?"

Xie Yanyu hummed softly: "I had a few drinks with the Duan family."

As the eldest son of the Xie family and the next heir to the title, of course he has to come out to entertain guests on the day when the girl of his family is engaged.

Since you are entertaining guests, how can you not drink a few glasses of wine with them?

Xie Ruyu, who was standing by, heard this and called the maid to bring a soft chair, saying, "Brother, please sit down."

The two sisters were sitting around the stove under a tree in the courtyard, making tea. There were a few plates of exquisite snacks on the small round table. Xie Yanyu took a glance and sat down.

Xie Wan Ning followed closely and took a seat, looking at him with her head tilted without blinking.

Xie Yanyu poured her tea and said, "Look at what I am doing."

"Just when I saw my brother, I suddenly remembered something. Xie Wan Ning didn't play it off and said directly, "Brother, do you know that after today, you will be the only one in our family who has not yet been engaged."

There are three branches in the Xie family. The third uncle was exiled and not in the capital, but his several sons and daughters have all been engaged. Xie Ruyu's two elder brothers also had marriage contracts a long time ago, but the wedding ceremony has not been completed yet.

Now, after a careful count, it turns out that only the eldest son Xie Yanyu is left alone.

You can imagine how anxious Zheng was.

But the person concerned didn't feel anything at all. After hearing what his sister said, he said calmly: "You are becoming more and more worried."

She is so worried about her brother's life. Xie Wan Ning was a little indignant when he blocked her like this, "I just feel sorry for my mother, she is the one who is really worried."

In the capital city, noble ladies of Zheng's age already had grandchildren around them. Whenever she went out to attend a banquet, she would feel jealous when she saw other people's children.

Her son and daughter are both outstanding, not inferior to other families in any way, but her son is in his early twenties and is still unwilling to get married.

My daughter is married, but my son-in-law...

Years ago, Zheng, with a loving mother's heart, wanted to remind her son-in-law not to hide his illness and avoid medical treatment. But when she learned that her daughter had consummated her marriage, she was overjoyed.

Every time they met afterwards, he would stare at Xie Wan Ning's belly.

I am so eager to have a grandson that I am going crazy...

Princess Duan Yang was also obsessed with having a grandson. Perhaps all the maids in the palace were very experienced. As soon as Xie Wan Ning stood in the upper courtyard that day, the news of the marriage consummation could not be concealed.

Xie Wan Ning also wanted a child of her own, but perhaps it was not her destiny to be blessed with children, or perhaps it was not her destiny to have children. Before Pei Yuqing left, they had been very close for several days, but they still did not get pregnant.

Now, not only Zheng was jealous of other people's children, but even Xie Wan Ning herself was a little envious.

She thought, if she couldn't give birth, then her brother wouldn't be able to either, so she looked at her brother eagerly, "Brother, what kind of girl do you like? Get married soon and give me some nephews and nieces to play with."

What a strange thing to say.

Xie Yanyu's hand holding the teacup trembled and he almost spilled the hot tea on his hands.

Xie Ruyu was laughing even more happily. Just as she was about to say a few words to join in the fun, she received a cold look from her cousin and quickly pursed her lips, not daring to laugh anymore.
