Chapter 225: Obtaining the Token and Raising His Status
Jiang Shiyuan didn't notice these things, but just carefully put away the black jade dragon pattern ring. Since this thing was a token given by the King of Han, it must not be lost, so he was naturally cautious.
The two children received a lot of attention here, but they were still young after all, and they were hungry. When they were hungry, they didn't care about the occasion at all. They opened their mouths and started crying. The King of Han was a little surprised. How could the children who were so well-behaved just now suddenly start crying? He didn't know what happened, and even looked at Jiang Shiyuan with some embarrassment and asked nervously.
"Is it because the way I hold the child is wrong? Why is the child crying so sadly?"
"Your Highness, the children must be hungry. I will take them downstairs to feed them first."
"I see. Go quickly and don't let the child starve."
The King of Han did not know the situation of the two children, so after Liuhua took the children, the master and his two servants took the children and left first. Pei Zisu was worried and wanted to send his wife over, so he left as well.
When he left, the King of Han and everyone else had no objections. However, in the eyes of Marshal Pei, he seemed a little unmotivated. Just as he was about to get angry, he heard the King of Han try to smooth things over.
"You and I were both young once, and we both cared so much about our families, so the old man should not be too harsh on us. Aren't you the same?"
Hearing this, Marshal Pei was speechless. If you look closely, you can see some embarrassing redness in his dark skin, but because he is so dark, it is not noticeable.
What he had done to Aunt An was so absurd and doting that his son's actions seemed tolerable in comparison.
The King of Han just laughed it off.
There was a hint of normality in his eyes. After all, in his opinion, the Pei family's current situation was just right.
Both father and son are capable people, but they are not united. The most important thing is that they both work for themselves, so it is best to maintain this delicate relationship.
In this way, Pei Jia is still his most powerful weapon, but he will not be hurt because this weapon is too sharp!
It's not surprising that the King of Han has such an idea, but the Prince of Han does not understand this. In his opinion, Pei Zisu's actions are simply typical of disobeying elders, but for some reason, his father still takes such good care of him!
Therefore, the anger in his heart grew deeper and deeper. If the two of them were alone in a place, he would have vented this dissatisfaction long ago. However, now he had neither real power nor anyone who could compete with him, so even though he was angry, he really could not do anything.
After the couple left, the front hall returned to its previous bustle of coming and going. With the Prince of Han around, the atmosphere could never be dull. Marshal Pei and the Prince of Han could make everyone laugh with a few appropriate remarks.
After Jiang Shiyuan and Pei Zisu brought the children back to their own yard, they began to prepare for breastfeeding. Her current milk supply was enough to feed two children, and because Aunt Mushao had been conditioning her, everything went smoothly.
Jiang Shiyuan didn't feel any discomfort, but he got thirsty easily when being fed, so there was always a pot of warm water next to him so he could drink at any time.
He covered his shoulders with a large towel, and Pei Zisu, who was sitting next to him, looked at Jiang Shiyuan with affection, and then said.
"Thank you for your hard work, ma'am. Auntie said that two more months of feeding will be enough. Once the children have complementary food, we won't have to work so hard anymore." "I think it's okay. It's a rare experience to be able to breastfeed a child like this. But it's only for two months. I can stick with it."
After using the essential oil prepared by Aunt Mushao on her belly, the various scars from the crawling wounds have improved a lot, and can be faintly seen to be light flesh color. If they are to be fully restored, it is estimated that it will take more than a year to apply the oil, so she has been persisting.
Now she has no psychological barriers to breastfeeding, the only thing is that she feels that her breasts after development are a little different from before. However, Aunt Mushao said that this is normal and that with the help of techniques and massage, she will be able to recover to her previous state, so she no longer has this concern.
Jiang Shiyuan fed the baby seriously, while Pei Zisu was waiting beside him.
By the time she had finished everything, the two children were already very satisfied with their meals and were a little drowsy. Liuhua and Luoluo each held one in their arms, burped them skillfully, and then carried them to the cradle and gently coaxed them to sleep.
The two children have been raised together since birth, so they have long been accustomed to it. When they were sleeping in the crib, Lai Jie'er even stretched out one of her little hands and gently placed it on her brother's shoulder, looking quite responsible, which made a few people laugh, and then the two children fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Shiyuan and Pei Zisu felt very happy when they saw this warm scene.
It was such a great fortune to have these two children in this life. After the children fell asleep soundly, Jiang Shiyuan took out the black jade ring with dragon pattern and handed it to Liuhua.
"Go prepare a locked box and keep the ring carefully. If the prince wants it in the future and we can't take it out, that would be a real problem."
"Don't worry, Madam. I will take care of this matter properly."
After she said this, she went downstairs to look for something, leaving Luluo alone to look after the two children, while Jiang Shiyuan and Pei Zisu went outside to continue the banquet.
Today's scene cannot be without the couple, so after sending Jiang Shiyuan back to the flower hall, Pei Zisu turned around and left.
The female members of the family all saw this scene. Some were envious, some were jealous, and each had their own thoughts.
When the Crown Prince's wife saw him coming, there was some envy in her eyes, but also an indescribable complexity. She had once thought that her husband would be a young talent like Pei Zisu. Although he might not be so talented in both literature and martial arts, he would not be a powerful villain like the Crown Prince of Han!
Therefore, she sighed again and again in her heart, feeling that her current identity was not worth it. However, when she thought about the fact that she married into the family for the sake of the family, how her grandparents were both seriously ill and still worried about the clan members, and how the whole family was dying out, she could only swallow her anger and continue to maintain her dignity as the Crown Prince's Consort of the King of Han.
Others might not be able to see this situation, but Mrs. Pei, who was also from a noble family, had a sharp eye. Therefore, after the banquet, she walked over to Jiang Shiyuan and quietly reminded her.
"If you want to get to know this prince's wife, you'd better be careful. She is not as kind as she appears to be."
These words really sounded alarmist, but Jiang Shiyuan calmed down immediately.
