I just want to live a good life

Chapter 462 Staying Overnight

Su Nuan and Madam Xia sat in Prince Yongping's mansion for quite a while but Prince Yongping and his family of three did not come out to entertain them.

This is a bit hard to justify.

It would be fine if she, a junior, didn't entertain him, but it would be impolite not to entertain Madam Xia, the mother-in-law.

Normally, the mother and daughter should have been received by Princess Yongping when they arrived, but they were brought directly to see Xia Qingyao, and the servant who led them did not mention Princess Yongping, which meant that Princess Yongping just did not want to come out to meet them.

Su Nuan guessed that this was probably because Yu Zhiqiu's previous incident had offended Princess Yongping, and Princess Yongping didn't want to see her, and she wanted to make her mother and herself unwelcome.

This is all Mu Yunting's fault. He used Yu Zhiqiu but had to take the blame himself.

Thinking of this, Su Nuan suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Before, Mu Yunting secretly left the imperial city to bring Xun Zheng back to use her to set up the plan, and he used her again in the matter of Yu Zhiqiu. In the end, she was the one who offended and annoyed people.

Then Mu Yunting himself welcomed back his beloved white moonlight.

It would be fine if she didn't think about it, but as soon as Su Nuan thought about it, she felt extremely upset, as if she was suffocating in her chest and couldn't even vomit.

After a while, her face turned pale.

"Little sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xia Qingyao asked Su Nuan with some concern.

"I'll call the court doctor to take a look at you."

After saying this, he ordered his servants to call someone.

Su Nuan quickly stopped the man, because she could no longer hide the fact that she was pregnant once the court doctor arrived.

"I'm fine, just a little tired. It's getting late, and Mom and I should go back."

"Yes." Madam Xia agreed, "Yan'er accompanied me to inspect the shop. She has been tired for the whole afternoon. Let her go back and rest early. I have to go back too. Your third brother who makes me worry is still sick. I have to go back to see him."

"Then my daughter will not keep you and my younger sister."

After the mother and her two daughters said goodbye, Su Nuan and Madam Xia got on the carriage.

Mrs. Xia came in Su Nuan's carriage, so without Su Nuan's instructions, Ye Xiaobai drove the carriage towards the general's mansion.

Sitting in the carriage, Su Nuan felt better as she thought about catching the "fox spirit" at night.

All the while she was thinking about how to stake out the place at night, how to catch people, and even what to do with the people after catching them.

Before they knew it, the carriage had arrived at the gate of the general's mansion.

Mrs. Xia got off the carriage first, and Su Nuan followed.

"What are you doing here? It's getting late. Go back early and don't let the prince wait for you."

Su Nuanxin said that her mother was overthinking. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to wait, he would wait for his sister A Zheng, so why would he wait for her?

Taking a deep breath and then exhaling a breath of "foul air", Su Nuan pulled Madam Xia's sleeve and said in a tender voice: "Mother, I miss you so much. I want to stay and talk with you tonight."

"How can that be possible? What if you leave the prince behind?"

Mrs. Xia questioned.

"He has more than just me as a concubine. Besides, there is also the future Crown Princess."

Su Nuan originally just wanted to tell her mother that the prince had more than one choice, and that her staying one night in the general's mansion would have no impact at all, but her words sounded sour.

Madam Xia looked at Su Nuan suspiciously and asked, "What happened between you and the prince? Did you do something to make the prince angry again?"

Su Nuan admired her mother's ability and immediately guessed that she had offended Mu Yunting, but she was not staying at the general's mansion tonight because of this.

"Mom, there's nothing like that. I just want to stay at home for one night. I haven't been home for a long time. I miss my little yard."

"Yan'er, it's not that mother is cruel and doesn't want to keep you. If you really want to come back and stay for one night, then bring the prince back with you. Otherwise, mother can't let you stay overnight."

"Mom, am I your biological child?"

Madam Xia tapped Su Nuan's forehead with her index finger. "Girl, you are my mother's child, so I care about you like this. You know that the prince has more than one concubine, and now there is a future main wife who is eyeing you covetously. If you don't protect the prince at this time, what will happen if others take advantage of the opportunity?"

Su Nuan thought that it was a small matter that she could just tell her mother about staying at the general's mansion for a night, but she didn't expect it to be so difficult.

If I can't live here, I won't be able to witness the process of catching the "fox spirit" with my own eyes, which won't do.

I have to find a way to get my mother to agree to let me stay.

With a turn of her eyes, Su Nuan had an idea.

"Mother, I'm tired and hungry now. Princess Yongping noticed that I was not feeling well. How about this, I'll have dinner at home first and let Xinyi take my pulse. Then I'll ask someone to invite the prince to come to the general's mansion to accompany me."

"If you ask the prince to come?"

"Yes, even if I don't come, I will have enough to eat and drink and regain my strength, so it won't be too late to go back."

Madam Xia was skeptical about this, but when she saw that her daughter's face looked unhappy, she felt sorry for her daughter and agreed. However, she was cautious and chose people from the general's mansion to invite the prince.

Su Nuan originally wanted to send Lie Feng back to tell Mu Yunting that he would stay overnight at the general's mansion, and then come back and tell his mother that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked Concubine Xia to stay at the general's mansion for two days before returning. In this way, she could stay there with peace of mind.

But now my mother has sent someone to invite him, which makes it very difficult.

Logically, Mu Yunting was angry with her because of the glass bracelet, so he should be very happy that she didn't go back to the Prince's Mansion. If her mother sent someone to invite him, he would definitely not come. She was just afraid that he would say something unpleasant, and when it got back to her ears, she would inevitably have to teach her a lesson with earnest words.

Moreover, Su Nuan was more worried that Mu Yunting would think that inviting him to the general's mansion was another trick on his part.

Third brother, third brother, I am so troubled because of you.

Su Nuan wailed silently in her heart, but pretended to be calm on the surface and followed Madam Xia into the general's mansion.

Mrs. Xia was worried about her daughter's health, so she took her straight to Liao Xinyi's residence as soon as she came back.

"Mom, do you think Xinyi and Third Brother will be together?"

"I think it's uncertain. Xinyi is a girl who probably doesn't like your third brother."

Su Nuanxin said that since she had her eldest brother to compete with, she naturally looked down on her third brother.

"Mom, how about I go and test Xinyi's attitude today?"

"Okay, if you really don't have that interest in your third brother, I'll have to quickly look for another candidate. Your third brother will be 22 years old by the New Year, and your eldest and second brothers already have children at this age."

"Then don't go with me, mother. I'm afraid Xinyi won't be able to speak the truth with you around."

Mrs. Xia thought about it and felt that what Su Nuan said made sense, but she was worried about Su Nuan's health and wanted to hear the results of the pulse diagnosis, so she hesitated for a long time.

"Mom, the result of my pulse diagnosis will be the same if you ask Xinyi tomorrow."

These words completely dispelled Mrs. Xia's idea of ​​going with her to look for Liao Xinyi.

Su Nuan finally breathed a sigh of relief after watching Mrs. Xia leave.
