Sweet baby milk, bring the whole family rich

Along the way, his steps were heavy and his mood was extremely depressed.

Shangguan Qin had been waiting at home for a long time. When she saw her husband returning from afar in such a distraught state, she suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart.

So she hurried forward and asked anxiously, "Husband, what happened? Why do you look so sad?"

Ouyang Ge had no choice but to tell the truth.

Shangguan Qin was shocked when she heard this, but since things had come to this point, she could only sigh.

"Think about how to explain it to your daughter." After saying that, Shangguan Qin went to another room angrily.

The next morning, sunlight filtered through the clouds, casting a faint golden glow over the entire capital. However, for Ouyang Ge, this day was destined to be anything but peaceful.

Before he could explain what had happened yesterday, an imperial edict arrived at the Ouyang residence like a torrential downpour. A voice shouted from the doorway, "Old General Ouyang, the imperial edict has arrived! Please accept it immediately!"

Following the voice, he saw a large eunuch in a gorgeous brocade robe, holding a whisk, walking towards Ouyang Ge with a broad smile on his face. The smile seemed amiable, but for some reason, Ouyang Ge suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if an invisible pressure was blowing towards him.

Without time to think, Ouyang Ge hurriedly ordered his servants to gather everyone in the mansion to the main hall. Suddenly, shouts and footsteps echoed one after another. In a short while, the spacious hall was filled with a dense crowd kneeling inside and outside. At a glance, there were hundreds of people.

Everyone held their breath, silently awaiting the imperial edict. Then, the chief eunuch cleared his throat and read aloud, "By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Princess Ping'an is exceptionally intelligent and virtuous, and is hereby granted the title of Princess Ping'an. On her coming-of-age day, she shall be married to Prince Jing'an, thus establishing a happy marriage. This is decreed!"

After the imperial edict was read, the hall was filled with silence, then an uproar. Aside from a few people who knew the inside story, everyone else was bewildered, completely baffled. The young maids and servants, in particular, began whispering among themselves.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Qingfeng calmly observed the expressions of his father and second brother. Seeing that they didn't show much surprise, Ouyang Qingfeng understood in his heart that they must have known about this matter for a long time.

So, he gently tugged at the hem of Tiantian's skirt, took the lead in kowtowing and expressing his gratitude, saying: "Your humble servant obeys the order and thanks the Lord for His grace." Seeing this, the others suddenly woke up from their dreams and kowtowned their heads to express their gratitude.

"Princess Ping'an, the Emperor has a message for you! He wants you to spend more time in the palace tomorrow when you're free," the eunuch said with a broad smile. Tiantian blinked her bright eyes, nodded sweetly, and replied in her tender yet sweet voice, "Yes, I will go. Thank you, eunuch," even bowing to the eunuch.

The eunuch was so delighted by Tiantian's adorable appearance that he couldn't stop looking at her. He couldn't help but reach out and gently touch Tiantian's head, praising her with a smile, "Your Highness is truly lovable."

"Old General, we have already brought the imperial edict and oral instructions. Now we have to go back to the palace to report." The eunuch turned and said to Ouyang Ge who was standing beside him.

Ouyang Ge hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, "Grandpa, thank you for your trouble in making this trip. Let me see you off."

After saying this, he personally accompanied the eunuch out of the mansion.

The two of them talked and laughed all the way until they sent the eunuch far away from the mansion. Then Ouyang Ge slowly turned around and walked towards the lobby at a leisurely pace.

When he walked into the lobby, he saw everyone sitting in the hall at a glance.

It was obvious that there was no way to escape today's "family meeting." Ouyang Ge sighed inwardly, knowing that even if he managed to avoid the first day, he wouldn't be able to avoid the fifteenth.

In that case, I might as well tell my family everything that happened at the welcoming banquet that day.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then slowly began to recount what had happened that day...

Hua Niang gently stroked Tiantian's silky hair with love, her eyes revealing endless pity and love.

She knew very well that her daughter had special feelings for the handsome young man Murong Yunche, but the nature of these feelings was still difficult to determine.

Maybe it was just the little girl's natural affection and closeness to the outstanding opposite sex; or maybe the seeds of love had been quietly planted deep in Tiantian's innocent heart.

However, if one day in the future, Tiantian discovers that her love for Murong Yunche is not a love between a man and a woman, or that Murong Yunche does not have the same feelings for Tiantian, then these two young people who are tightly bound by the marriage contract will fall into such pain and struggle!

When she thought of this, Hua Niang couldn't help but become worried.

"Mom, are you unhappy?" Tiantian looked at Hua Niang with a sad face, her big eyes full of confusion.

"You are still young." Hua Niang just sighed and touched Tiantian's hair lovingly.

Although Tiantian is precocious, no matter how precocious a child is, she cannot understand matters between men and women at this time. It is better to take things one step at a time.

"Mom, I like little brother."

As soon as Tiantian said this, everyone in the room laughed.

"Okay, as long as Tiantian likes it." Shangguan Qin looked at Tiantian and touched the top of her head. She had already made up her mind that if Tiantian no longer liked him when she grew up, she would help Tiantian break off the engagement even if it cost her life.

On the other side, Murong Yunche was extremely excited after finally waiting for the imperial edict that symbolized supreme authority and glory. He didn't even have time to savor every word of it. He couldn't wait to hold it tightly in his hand and trotted all the way to the family's ancestral hall.

This ancestral hall is solemn and dignified, enshrining the tablets of Murong's ancestors and his deceased father and mother.

Entering the ancestral hall, Murong Yunche respectfully lit three incense sticks, and then carefully placed the imperial edict on the altar.

He looked up at his parents' tablets, his eyes filled with deep affection, and said softly, "Father, Mother, I have finally achieved my wish today. If you were still alive and saw all this, you would surely be happy for me. Also, I have a girl named Tiantian by my side now. She is innocent, kind, lively and lovely. If you could meet her, you would definitely like her very much."

At this moment, the butler who had been waiting nearby saw that the time had come and gently reminded him, "Young Master, it's almost time."

Murong Yunche nodded slightly at this, but he was still reluctant to leave. He bowed deeply to the tablet once more, then knelt down devoutly, kowtowed several times in succession to express his respect and longing for his ancestors.

Only when his forehead became red and swollen did he slowly stand up, take one last look at his parents' tablets, turn around and slowly walk out of the ancestral hall.

A few days later, in accordance with the imperial edict, Tiantian entered the palace with trepidation. As soon as she entered the palace, she was shocked by the scene before her.

The palace was filled with colorful flowers, vying for beauty with each other; the palace maids and eunuchs were moving around, some running busily, some standing respectfully, creating a very lively scene.

Tiantian opened her eyes wide and looked around curiously, sometimes at the beautiful flowers blooming here, sometimes at the exquisite pavilions over there. She was completely immersed in this novel environment and didn't notice that there was a person walking towards her not far ahead.

There was only a cry of "Ouch!" and the two of them bumped into each other...

Tiantian bumped into a delicate figure. When she looked up, she saw a beautiful imperial concubine.

"How dare you offend Concubine Li!" the palace maid next to her scolded.

Tiantian was startled and was about to bow and apologize, but Concubine Li smiled and said, "It turns out to be Princess Ping'an. What a clever girl."

Concubine Li held Tiantian's hand, a calculating look flashing in her eyes, "I heard that the princess and Prince Jing'an have been engaged since childhood. I think the princess must learn the rules and etiquette of this palace well, so that she can be worthy of Prince Jing'an in the future."

Although Tiantian felt a little uncomfortable, she still nodded politely.

At the same time, Murong Yunche was anxious when he learned that Tiantian encountered trouble after entering the palace.

He hurried to the palace and made his position clear to Concubine Li, "Your Majesty, Tiantian is still young. If I have offended you, I hope you will forgive me. I am willing to teach her anything."

Seeing this, Concubine Li had no choice but to give up.

Murong Yunche took Tiantian away. Tiantian looked at his profile, a warm ripple in her heart. She whispered, "Little brother, thank you."
