I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

I saw Princess Heshuo standing in front of the chopping board with a porcelain basin at her side. There seemed to be some batter-like substance in the basin, and she was stirring it vigorously.

Next to her, her personal maid Lan Xin advised: "Your Highness, why don't you let this servant come?"

"No, I can do it."

Lan Xin was so distressed that tears came out: "When have you ever done this? You practiced for so long in the palace without the Emperor and the Empress's support, and you didn't feel tired. Now you just got up early in the morning and you are busy with all this. It's really too hard."

"Silly girl, how is this hard work? It's not like you're working hard, it's just making an egg pancake."

"But you are a princess."

"So what if it's a princess? Now that I'm married, I have to do these things."

"You can tell your servant to do it."

Princess Heshuo smiled faintly: "How can they be the same? Things made by hand have love and care in them. This love cannot be replaced by anyone."

"Is the Prince Consort worthy of you doing this?"

“It’s certainly worth it.”

From Luo Jinyu's perspective, she could see a gentle smile on Princess Heshuo's face.

For some reason, Luo Jinyu felt that Princess Heshuo was extremely beautiful at this moment.

Luo Jinyu walked into the small kitchen.

Lan Xin saw him first and was about to salute, but Luo Jinyu stopped him with a look.

Moreover, Luo Jinyu made a gesture, indicating her to go out first.

Afterwards, Luo Jinyu walked lightly to the side of Princess Heshuo.

Princess Heshuo's movements were very skillful, and it was obvious that she had practiced them many times before.

Luo Jinyu walked over and held Princess Heshuo's hand from behind.

"Lan Xin, didn't I tell you that I can do..."

When Princess Heshuo turned around and saw Luo Jinyu's face, she immediately forgot what she was doing.

At this moment, she looked at him as if she was a child who had done something wrong: "Are you hungry? I'll be right there. I'm sorry, it's me, I'm so stupid..."

Before she could finish her words, Luo Jinyu held her hand even tighter.

He held her hand, as if hugging her from behind, and his voice was clear and his words were as sweet as spring water: "You are a princess. If you want to be served, it should be me who serves you."

"I..." Princess Heshuo couldn't say the rest of the words.

She wanted to say that when you start to care about someone, you will be willing to do a lot of things for him.

Even though she is a princess, she is willing to cook for the one she loves.

It has nothing to do with identity.

It is simply a natural action of a woman falling in love with a man.

But at this moment, she felt her whole body stiff and couldn't say anything.

"My noble princess, can I do something for you?"

These words made Princess Heshuo's heart flutter.

When she was confused, she heard Luo Jinyu talking: "Wanxi, I'm sorry that it took me so long to respond to you. Don't worry, I will fulfill my responsibilities as a husband in the future. And you don't need to do so much for me. You just need to be yourself. Just like flowers blooming, butterflies will come naturally, you just need to be yourself, and I will come to you."

Luo Jinyu felt that he had made his point very clear.

But to the ears of Princess Heshuo, it had another meaning.

Yes, she had known for a long time that he would fulfill his responsibilities as a husband.

But he did this not because of her, but because of Cui Shuyan.

From the very beginning of this marriage, Luo Jinyu's original intention was not to make Cui Shuyan sad.

It was then and it is now.

She knew that Luo Jinyu would do her best.

Yet I always feel like something is missing.

In a trance, Princess Heshuo even wondered if she was too greedy.

Being able to fulfill your responsibilities as a husband, not taking concubines, not embarrassing her, and giving her enough dignity, that's already good enough, isn't it?

……

On the other side, inside Prince Xie’s mansion.

It was already past the time for him to be on duty, but Xie Xingyuan was still hanging around Cui Shuyan.

Cui Shuyan teased Ze'er while wondering, "Don't we have to go to the Ministry of War today?"

Although the Daliang delegation had left, the border had not yet achieved true peace.

In other words, if you are not strong enough, it will be difficult to achieve complete peace.

Recently, Xie Xingyuan has been in the Ministry of War, busy forging new armor. He even has a lot of ideas for improving the bow and arrow, which he is testing one by one.

So Xie Xingyuan is still very busy during this period.

"I'm going, but it's not time to go yet. I've asked Mr. Wen to keep an eye on it first." As he said that, Xie Xingyuan glanced nervously at Cui Shuyan's belly.

Cui Shuyan followed his line of sight and chuckled, "The child is still young, it's far from the time to show it. Also, if you're pregnant for less than three months, you can't go out and talk about it, otherwise it's unlucky. You have to remember this."

Xie Xingyuan nodded: "Yes, I know."

But, after he finished speaking, he still had no intention of leaving.

"Don't worry about me. I fainted yesterday because I was overworked and didn't eat. I will definitely eat on time today and not let myself get tired, so don't worry."

"Yeah!" Xie Xingyuan responded, but still hesitated and asked the question that was lingering in his mind: "When you found out you were pregnant with Ze'er, you must have been very nervous, right?"

Cui Shuyan shook her head, with a gentle smile on her beautiful face: "No, I'm not nervous, only happy."

Her joy was that her baby Ze'er finally returned to her belly.

And she could be his mother.

"So, what about in dreams?"

Cui Shuyan held Xie Xingyuan's hand and stared into his eyes, her eyes gentle but firm: "I wasn't nervous at that time."

As for the reason, she didn't say.

But she knew that Xie Xingyuan could understand.

At that time, she only thought that she was pregnant with Xie Shaohang's child.

So, I was not nervous, but rather very happy.

Because at that time Xie Shaohang doted on Lin Xinrou to the extreme, his heart and eyes were filled with Lin Xinrou, and he would not even look at her for a second.

So, she was very happy to have Xie Shaohang's child at that time.

Of course, the subsequent experience was not very pleasant.

But there is no need to say these.

"A Yuan, the past is the past. No matter how tragic it was or how hard it was to accept, it's all in the past. The most important thing is to look forward, don't you think?"

"Yes." Xie Xingyuan replied through gritted teeth.

He always cared about the fact that he was unable to save them and their son in the world Cui Shuyan was in before.

Although, he had no impression of that world.

"A Yuan, Buddhism says that cause and effect in this world is cyclical. Maybe in some other world, I have failed you. So, don't dwell on these things anymore and just enjoy the present moment, okay?"

"Okay." As he said that, Xie Xingyuan hugged Cui Shuyan tightly.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Ze'er came over, pointed at Xie Xingyuan's face and said, "Father wants a hug, shame on you."
