Chapter 76 You Are Not Worthy of Being Her Mother

[Oh, that’s what I said.]

[My mother will not continue to be confused. ]

[But my mother's acting skills are really Oscar-level! ]

Princess Chaoyang: Oscar? What is that?
Although I don’t know what it is, my daughter should be praising her for being so awesome, right?

After Xu Nianyue returned to her own yard, she went on a hunger strike for three consecutive days.

She thought that within a day, Princess Chaoyang would lose her patience and compromise on her own initiative.

After all, it was always like this before.

But until the third day, Princess Chaoyang did not show up, let alone give in.

Xu Nianyue felt that if this continued she would go crazy, so she sent someone to the old lady's yard and deliberately said that she was about to starve to death.

The old lady felt sorry for her granddaughter and hurried to visit Xu Nianyue.

When Xu Nianyue learned that the old lady was coming, she deliberately made herself look very embarrassed and cried her heart out in front of the old lady.

The old lady felt very distressed and tried her best to persuade Xu Nianyue to eat something.

Xu Nianyue, who was always well fed and full every day, couldn't eat anything else. She refused to eat and even drove the old lady out of the house and locked her outside.

The old lady had no choice but to go to Princess Chaoyang's yard angrily.

After hearing the report, Princess Chaoyang couldn't help but sneer.

The old lady never came to see Yaoyao since she was born, and now that Xu Nianyue was on a hunger strike, she came so quickly.

Princess Chaoyang had the old lady invited to the main house, and she slowly drank tea and ate cakes. Only after she was full did she slowly walk out of the inner room.

Seeing the old lady sitting in the hall with an angry face, Princess Chaoyang pretended to know nothing and asked with a smile: "Why did mother come to my courtyard today? Is she feeling better?"

The old lady snorted coldly and said, "You're still laughing! Nian Yue is going to starve to death because of you!"

Princess Chaoyang sat down next to the old lady and sighed helplessly, "Nianyue has been spoiled by me. She has been making troubles since she was a child. This time she even disturbed her mother. It's really wrong."

The old lady said angrily: "She is almost starving to death, and you can still say such things. Are you her mother?"

Princess Chaoyang snorted in her heart, "Aren't you very clear about whether I am her mother or not?"
But his face still showed an angry expression, "Mother, even if she starves to death, I can't let her marry Zhao Yunyang."

The old lady already knew the whole story, so she was not surprised to hear Princess Chaoyang say this.

She said dissatisfiedly: "Zhao Yunyang is the prince of Yongding Marquis's Mansion, born into a noble family, and is a good match for our Nianyue. Why do you have to object?"

Princess Chaoyang said aggrievedly: "Mother, Zhao Yunyang is not a good man. If Nianyue marries him, it will harm her for the rest of her life."

The old lady said angrily, "How can he not be a good husband? The prince of Yongding Marquis's Mansion is not only handsome, but also humble and polite to others. He is a rare good husband."

"I think you just don't want Nianyue to marry well!"

Princess Chaoyang felt even more aggrieved, "Mother, how can you say that? Nianyue is my daughter, how could I not wish her the best?"

The old lady said angrily: "Since you want her well, then why don't you agree to this marriage and make Nianyue happy?"

Princess Chaoyang shook her head and said, "No, I will not agree to this marriage, otherwise Nian Yue will definitely hate me for the rest of her life."

"You!" The old lady stood up angrily, pointed at Princess Chaoyang's nose and cursed: "You actually want to watch Nianyue starve to death, you are not worthy of being Jinse's mother!"

Although Princess Chaoyang's eyes were filled with grievances, her gaze was extremely firm, "Mother, no matter what you say today, I will not let Nianyue marry Zhao Yunyang."

"You, you are simply unreasonable." The old lady said hatefully, and left Princess Chaoyang's yard angrily.

As they walked along the road, the old lady continued to curse, saying that Princess Chaoyang was not worthy of being a mother at all.

Because she was really worried about Xu Nianyue, the old lady went to Xu Nianyue again. After Xu Nianyue heard that the old lady did not let Princess Chaoyang compromise, she cried even harder.

The old lady stood outside the door, turning around anxiously.

Rong Mama was worried that the old lady would get sick from worrying about it, so she took the initiative to suggest, "Old lady, how about you ask the prince consort to persuade the princess? Doesn't the princess always listen to the prince consort the most?"

The old lady thought Rong Mama's suggestion made sense, so she hurried to Xu Jinhuai's study.

Xu Nianyue in the room also heard what Rong Mama said, and felt that she would definitely get what she wanted this time.

After all, my father listens to my grandmother the most, and Princess Chaoyang listens to my father the most.

After nightfall.

Princess Chaoyang was just about to rest when she heard Yuan Xiang report that Xu Jinhuai had arrived.

She knew Xu Jinhuai would come to see her, but she didn't expect him to come so late.

Princess Chaoyang quickly asked Yuan Xiang to help her put on her coat, then walked to the cradle and personally picked up Xu Yaoyao, who was not yet asleep.

Xu Jinhuai came into the inner room at about the same time.

Seeing Princess Chaoyang holding Xu Yaoyao in her arms, he couldn't help but frown.

He had wanted to get closer to Princess Chaoyang today, but he didn't expect Xu Yaoyao was still awake.

He hadn't been close to Princess Chaoyang for a long time and missed her very much.

Therefore, when the old lady went to find him today and asked him to persuade Princess Chaoyang, Xu Jinhuai deliberately delayed his arrival until after nightfall, in order to take the opportunity to stay overnight in Princess Chaoyang's room.

"You little guy, why aren't you sleeping yet?" Xu Jinhuai walked up to Xu Yaoyao and asked with some resentment.

Xu Yaoyao glared at him unhappily.

[Is it none of your business whether I sleep or not? 】

[What? You want to wait until I fall asleep to do something bad? ]

[There is no door! 】

[Yaoyao swears to protect her mother till death! ]

Princess Chaoyang:.
Thank you, Yaoyao.

Seeing Xu Yaoyao stretching out her little hand again, Xu Jinhuai took a step back reflexively.

After being slapped so many times by Xu Yaoyao, he has become defensive.

"Why did your Highness come here so late?" Princess Chaoyang suddenly asked.

Thinking of Xu Nianyue's hunger strike, Xu Jin held Princess Chaoyang's arm and asked her to sit down at the table, and he himself sat next to Princess Chaoyang.

He looked at Princess Chaoyang affectionately and said softly, "I already know about Nian Yue's affairs."

"The Yongding Marquis's Mansion is still a noble family in the imperial capital. It's really not a loss for Nianyue to marry into their family. Why doesn't Qing'er agree?"

Princess Chaoyang sighed quietly and said, "Nianyue is my daughter. I naturally hope that she can marry a man of her dreams and live a happy and smooth life."

"But as far as I know, the Yongding Marquis's son has a bad character and is not a good match for him."

Xu Jinhuai saw Princess Chaoyang's worried face and consoled her with a smile, "Qing'er, you worry too much."

"Although the Yongding Marquis' son did go to brothels before, it was because he had no wife at home and was not stable."

"If he marries Nian Yue and has her to look after him, he will naturally stop looking for other women."
