Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Chapter 24 There are many small statues of Huai An

As soon as he finished speaking, a chubby figure threw himself into Meng Yunshang's arms.

"Mom, are you going out?"

Meng Yunshang held the man in her arms and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He told him in a gentle voice, "It's the old lady's birthday in Shangshu Mansion today, and mother wants to go back to celebrate."

"Then can mother take Huai'an with her?"

Meng Yunshang hesitated.

Today's birthday party is destined to be turbulent, as she has a lot of things to do.

It is one thing that he really cannot spare the time to take care of Huai'an, but what is more important is that if Huai'an goes back with him, he will easily be used by Meng Yunchuan as a bargaining chip to curry favor with the powerful.

After thinking for a moment, Meng Yunshang decided to persuade Huai'an to stay in the palace.

But Huai'an spoke first, "Huai'an has grown up and has never met his grandmother and uncle."

"Mom, can you take Huai'an with you? Huai'an promises to stay by your side, not run around, and not cause trouble for you."

The words "I have never seen my grandmother and uncle" made Meng Yunshang's eyes sore, and she couldn't even say the reason she had thought of.

Never mind, let’s go together.

She stroked Huai'an's little head gently and said softly, "Then Huai'an, come with mother. Grandmother and uncle will definitely be happy to see you."

"Wow, I can go with my mom, that's great!"

After getting permission, Huai'an danced with joy.

At this time, a cough was faintly heard outside the door. Huai'an immediately understood and hugged his mother's neck and acted coquettishly.

"Mother, the distance from the palace to the Shangshu Mansion is quite long. For the sake of safety, can you let father take us there?"

Meng Yunshang shook her head, "There is a guard escort, so there is no need to trouble your father."

"But the guards are not as reliable as my father. We still need my father."

Meng Yunshang frowned and looked at Huai'an suspiciously.

I always feel that the little guy's idea of ​​asking Lu Chenxiao to go with him is inexplicably stubborn.

Huai'an felt nervous when she looked at him, fearing that his mother would discover his little thoughts.

Just as he was wondering whether to say something, Meng Yunshang scratched his nose and said, "Father is busy with government affairs, let's not disturb him."

Huai'an sighed, "Okay!"

As he stepped out of the door, he sighed regretfully towards a corner of the corridor.

I tried my best, Father.

But mother just didn't take you with her, so you can't blame me.

Cheng had sent someone to wait for her daughter at the gate early in the morning. As soon as the carriage from Prince Heng's mansion stopped, she received the news.

I hurried over and just saw Meng Yunshang coming out of the carriage.

She happily stepped forward to greet him, "Shang'er!"

"Mother!"

The mother and daughter hugged each other excitedly.

In Cheng's view, she finally saw her precious daughter again after five years.

But in Meng Yunshang's heart, she and her mother not only had not seen each other for many years, but were also separated by the Yin and Yang of their previous lives.

Thinking back to her past life, when her mother learned of her death, her hair turned white overnight.

Later, he cried so much that his eyes went blind because he missed her so much.

Meng Yunshang was filled with grief and choked up as she apologized, "I am an unfilial child and have made my mother worry."

Cheng thought her daughter felt guilty for not coming back home in the past few years, so she laughed heartily, "It's good that you're back. This is your home. You're welcome to come back anytime you want."

Meng Yunshang didn't explain much, she just hugged Cheng tightly, feeling the familiar scent on her body, and soothing her panicked heart.

Until the hem of her clothes was gently pulled, "Mother, mother, is this your mother?"

Cheng lowered her head in surprise and met Huai'an's cute eyes.

She asked in surprise and joy, "But the young master?"

"I'm Lu Youlin, the prince of Heng, but you can call me Huai'an like mother, that's my nickname."

Cheng excitedly hugged Huai'an into her arms, "Huai'an, grandma's little Huai'an, grandma misses you so much."

"Hey, grandma, how can you miss me when you haven't even seen me? Lying is not good. Grandma is an adult, you can't make mistakes knowingly and lead children astray."

"Although I have never seen you, my grandmother has many small portraits of you."

"Ah?" Huai'an's eyes widened in shock.

He asked Meng Yunshang in confusion, "Mother, why does grandma have a small statue of Huai'an?"

Meng Yunshang didn't know either, and she looked at Cheng with confusion.

Cheng coughed lightly, "You guys follow me."

As she said this, she was about to hold Huai'an's hand.

But Huai'an did not let her hold his hand. Instead, he retreated to Meng Yunshang with a wary look in his eyes.

She cried in a trembling voice, "Mom~"

"Don't be afraid," Meng Yunshang touched the little guy's head and comforted him, "Grandma will definitely not harm us."

Huai'an said okay, but his body was still very tense.

And when Meng Yunshang didn't even notice, he protected her.

"Mother, you haven't seen your grandmother for a long time, so we'd better be careful."

Meng Yunshang bent down and held him in her arms, kissed his little face and said, "Even if we haven't seen each other for a long time, I believe that grandma won't hurt us. Just like Huai'an has to believe that I won't hurt you."

The little guy finally smiled, hugged Meng Yunshang's neck tightly with both hands, and kissed her back with a pouty mouth, "I know, mother, Huai'an likes mother the most."

At first, Cheng was sad that Huai'an didn't trust her, but after seeing the interaction between the mother and son, she felt relieved.

Shang'er was not at all cold and heartless towards Huai'an as the rumors said; on the contrary, she was very fond of him.

The heavy stone in her heart finally fell, and Cheng gestured to Meng Yunshang to hold Huai'an and go with her.

He had only taken two steps when he saw the nanny beside the old lady hurried over.

"This old servant has met the Second Miss. The old lady learned that the Second Miss had returned home, so she invited the Second Miss to go to Fushou Hall for a rest."

Cheng frowned, "It's still early. Shang'er is tired from the journey. I will take her to Huarong Pavilion to rest for a while, and then go to Fushou Hall to congratulate the old lady on her birthday."

"But the old lady is waiting in Fushou Hall, and there are many noble ladies with her. Madam, please don't waste time and let the second young lady go there quickly, so as not to make the old lady unhappy by waiting too long."

"How dare you!" Cheng shouted coldly.

"My daughter was personally appointed by His Majesty as the Princess of Heng. The only people who can make her anxious to see him are the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Empress."

"The old lady is very righteous, how could she not understand such a truth? How dare you, an old rascal, ruin the old lady's reputation in public."

"Zhichun, Zhixia, tie him up and send him to Fushou Hall, and ask the old lady how to deal with him."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhichun and Zhixia came to get the person immediately, and the old nanny broke out in a cold sweat.

The next moment, she shouted to Meng Yunshang in a shrill voice, "Second Miss, save me. The old lady loves you the most. You will definitely not let her lose face in public."

"Dangui, go with Zhichun and Zhixia to ask the old lady what crime the servant in the mansion should be punished for publicly provoking the relationship between the concubine and the old lady."

"Okay, Princess. If the old lady can't handle this naughty slave, I will take her back to the palace and let her learn some rules."

"That's right!"

"No!" The old nanny screamed in fear, but was quickly covered by Zhichun and Dangui.

Her ears became quiet and Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.

He looked at Meng Yunshang lovingly for a long time before sighing softly, "After not seeing you for a few years, Shang'er has become more mature and sensible."

Her words showed joy for her daughter's growth, but more of it was heartache.

How many difficult nights must my daughter have gone through in the past five years to be so calm and composed?

"Shang'er, I'm sorry for having wronged you. Back then..."

Meng Yunshang didn't want to talk about what happened in the past in front of Huai'an. She gently reminded Cheng, "Mom, let's not talk about the past."

"I am living a good life now. The status of Princess Heng is not something that anyone can get if they want it. Besides, Huai'an is well-behaved and sensible. I am content."

Cheng quickly responded, "Don't mention it, let's not talk about the past."

As they were talking, the group soon arrived at Huarong Pavilion where Meng Yunshang lived before she got married.

What surprised Meng Yunshang was that the study was actually filled with small portraits of Huai'an.
