Regent, please maintain your aloof image.

Just as they were chatting happily, a crying sound came from inside. A moment later, the wet nurse came in carrying Su Jinsen. "Greetings, Your Highness, Your Highness, Master, Madam. This young master is crying and making a fuss. I really have no choice but to bring him to see the eldest young mistress."

"Give it to me."

The wet nurse then handed Su Jinsen to Song Shiyu, but he continued to cry.

Lin Rong asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Reporting to Madam, I have already fed her."

"Could he be sick? Go quickly and fetch a doctor to take a look," Su Jing'an said.

At the same time, Su Qianrou looked at Su Jinsen and asked, "Little Sen'er, do you still remember your aunt?"

Unexpectedly, Su Jinsen stopped crying and looked at her with teary eyes.

Su Qianrou's heart melted instantly, and she said, "Sister-in-law, how about I hold him?"

Without hesitation, Song Shiyu handed Su Jinsen to her.

Su Qianrou took it and said, "Does Xiao Sen'er know that Auntie is here, so he's been clamoring to see Auntie?"

“I think it’s true, this kid stopped crying when he was in your hands,” Su Mingxuan said.

"Our little Sen'er misses her aunt, doesn't she?"

Su Jinsen stared at her with his big eyes, looking incredibly cute. Even Mu Jinchen couldn't help but take a second look.

“Our little Sen’er hasn’t met his uncle yet, has he? Come here, look, this is your uncle,” she said, looking at Mu Jinchen and asking, “Your Highness, would you like to give him a hug?”

"No," Mu Jinchen said, not because he disliked the baby, but mainly because he had never held such a small child before and was afraid of hurting him.

Su Jinsen looked at him with curiosity.

Seeing this, Su Qianrou directly handed him to Mu Jinchen.

Mu Jinchen hurriedly took it, his whole body tensing up. "What are you doing?"

"To let you familiarize yourself with it in advance."

Upon hearing this, Lin Rong exclaimed with delight, "Rou'er, you're pregnant!"

"no".

At this moment, Su Jinsen burst into tears, which made Mu Jinchen even more flustered and at a loss for what to do.

Su Qianrou had no choice but to take Su Jinsen back, saying, "It seems our little Sen'er doesn't like you very much."

Su Jinsen stopped crying as soon as he was in Su Qianrou's arms.

"Your Highness, please don't take offense. Children are all like that, their moods are unpredictable," Lin Rong hurriedly explained, afraid that he would be unhappy.

“It’s alright,” she said, then added, “He does like you; he stopped crying as soon as he got into your arms.”

"That's right, I'm his aunt."

"Sen'er has always liked Qianrou. He used to cry and make a fuss all the time, and no one could do anything about him. But as soon as he was in Qianrou's arms, he stopped crying and making a fuss. If you didn't know better, you would think that Qianrou was his mother."

"Little Sen'er, your mother is jealous, what should we do?"

The room was filled with laughter and joy.

After their meal, Su Qianrou and Mu Jinchen did not leave. Instead, they walked hand in hand toward Youlan Courtyard.

"What are you thinking about? You're not saying anything."

"You didn't say that either."

"I was just afraid of disturbing your thinking."

"Then should I say that Your Highness is so considerate?" Su Qianrou said playfully.

Mu Jinchen smiled, looking at her with eyes full of doting affection.

Then, the two continued walking forward.

Su Qianrou asked, "Does Your Highness prefer daughters or sons?"

"daughter".

Why?

"cute".

"Isn't your son adorable too? Look at Xiao Sen'er, isn't he cute?"

"They won't be cute when they grow up."

"You... Everyone else is biased towards sons, but you're the one who's biased towards daughters."

"If I could have a daughter who looks just like you, I think I would be laughing in my sleep. Moreover, I would spoil her rotten and give her all the best things in the world."

"Are you planning to abandon me after you have a daughter?"

"How could that be? You will always be number one in my heart. No one can surpass you, not even our daughter."

"real".

"I can live without my daughter, but I can't live without you."

"Have you been secretly reading some books lately? Otherwise, how could you say such sweet nothings so easily?"

"These are all my heartfelt words."

"Yeah".

"Of course."

The figures of the two people gradually moved away.

Meiran-in

The next day, after waking up, Su Qianrou went to find Lin Rong and chatted with her about everyday things.

Lin Rong said earnestly, "Rou'er, a marriage needs to be reciprocal. One person can't always give while the other takes it for granted. Such a relationship won't last."

"I know".

“You know this and you still do it. You said last night, the Prince took care of you the whole time, but he didn’t eat much himself. And you, on the other hand, ate so happily, without caring about him at all. I’m not trying to criticize you, but you should at least have put some food on his plate, even just a little bit.” Then she continued, “You two have only been married for a short time now, and your feelings for each other are still very strong, so the Prince doesn’t mind these things. But what if it goes on for a long time and your feelings fade? When the Prince looks back on it then, he will definitely feel that you don’t care about him and that you don’t care about him. That will cause resentment in his heart.”

"It's not as serious as you make it out to be."

"Don't take this lightly. I've been through this before. Listen to me, and you'll be right. From now on, pay more attention to the Prince and don't be as indifferent as you are now."

"Okay, I understand."

Lin Rong thought for a moment and then said, "You and the prince have been married for almost two months, why is there still no sign of pregnancy? Find an opportunity to have Qiu Lan take a good look at you and try to have a child as soon as possible."

"Mother, I'm still young and haven't planned to have children yet."

"What do you mean you're still young? You're already sixteen. Besides, the Prince is already twenty-four and still doesn't have a child. You're not worried, but the Prince is. Also, I've heard that the Empress Dowager has sent the Prince a lot of palace maids. Do you want a son born out of wedlock to be born first?"

"The Empress Dowager sent many palace maids to the Prince's mansion, but the Prince has never touched any of them. Moreover, I have already driven several of them out of the mansion. Now there are only two who are still obedient in the mansion."

"You can know a person's face but not their heart. They may seem obedient now, but who knows what they might do in the future? You must not let your guard down."

"Don't worry, I've asked Juxia to keep an eye on things, nothing will happen."

"Now the Empress Dowager is only sending some palace maids. Who knows when she will allow the prince to take a concubine? At that time, you will be controlled in every way and will not be as relaxed as you are now. Therefore, you should get pregnant as soon as possible, and it would be best to give birth to a legitimate son. In this way, your position as the princess will be secure."

"The prince said that he would never take any concubines in his life, only me."

"Just listen to what I say, but don't take it to heart, or you'll regret it later."

Su Qianrou knew she wouldn't believe her, so she didn't explain further.

Just then, Qinghui came in and said, "Your Highness, Madam, the Marquis's mansion has sent someone to invite you. They say the Marquis wants you and Madam to return home."

"But what happened at the Marquis's residence?"

"Your Highness, I have not heard of such a thing."

"It's probably because of the matter of us moving back."

“I will go back with you.”

"it is good".
