OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 36: Has He Let Down His Wife?
Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Has He Let Down His Wife?
The maid brought over a plate of fruit and pastries.
Prince Kang first picked up a green jujube and handed it to Bai Zhi’er.
The little one didn’t take it.
"Third Uncle, if there’s something good to eat, you should give it to Third Aunt first."
Prince Kang smiled and put the green jujube into Princess Consort Kang’s hand, "Listen to Zhi’er!"
He then handed another one over, only then did Bai Zhi’er take it.
The little one’s round, fair face had a delicate pink tint.
A pair of big, watery eyes looked at Prince Kang.
"Because Third Aunt is your wife, if there’s something nice, you should give it to your wife first, or it would be a shame she married you and became your family."
Upon hearing this, Prince Kang and Princess Consort Kang glanced at each other.
Back then, when they had no power or status and had just gotten married, Princess Consort Kang accompanied him through some very hard times.
She was diligent, stronger than a man, carrying logs and fetching water was no problem, and she took on a lot of dirty and tiring work at home.
All these years have passed, now he is the Holy Emperor’s brother, with endless treasures of gold and silver, and the days surrounded by beauties have increased.
Prince Kang almost forgot what those hard times with Princess Consort Kang felt like. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Though he didn’t remember, the hardships left traces on Princess Consort Kang’s fingers and the fine lines at the corners of her eyes.
Because of Bai Zhi’er’s words, Prince Kang realized for the first time—
Did he owe his wife something?
But just for a moment, he withdrew his gaze.
Princess Consort Kang, never one to feign grievance, also coughed lightly a couple of times with some awkwardness.
"Zhi’er, hurry and try it, this green jujube is crisp and sweet, you’ll love it."
"Okay, Third Aunt, you have some too!"
The big and the small took a bite, exchanging smiles.
Prince Kang, looking at this scene, felt a sense of contentment swell in his heart.
Without those mischief-making sons causing trouble, just having a daughter around, how peaceful life would be!
Just then, a servant announced from outside the door.
"Your Highness, the Xuan Chun Courtyard has sent someone, saying that Second Aunt is not feeling well. Lixiang, by her side, is asking if Your Highness has time to go over and take a look?"
At the mention of Second Aunt’s name, the expression on Princess Consort Kang’s face turned even more indifferent.
Bai Zhi’er blinked her big eyes, looking at Prince Kang.
Prince Kang hesitated for a moment.
The Second Aunt at Xuan Chun Courtyard was his most favored concubine at the moment.
Moreover, her temperament was gentle and she never actively sought attention or favors.
Now, saying she’s unwell, it must be true.
Prince Kang hesitated a bit.
He wanted to see what was wrong but was also reluctant to leave Bai Zhi’er.
The little one’s voice was soft and cottony, "Third Uncle, what’s wrong, is that Aunt sick?"
Princess Consort Kang laughed coldly, "Good Zhi’er, let’s ignore them. If your Third Uncle wants to go, let him go, so he doesn’t fret over not seeing a beauty!"
Prince Kang gently coughed, "In front of the child, give me some face!"
Bai Zhi’er’s long lashes fluttered, her eyes sparkling brightly.
"Well, I think, Third Uncle going won’t help, after all, you’re not Uncle Doctor, going won’t cure her!"
"If she’s really unwell, better let the doctor look at her." With that, the little one called out, "Sister Qingmei~"
Qingmei, who had been waiting outside, came in, "Princess, what are your orders?"
Bai Zhi’er looked obedient, "In a little while, you go with Uncle Doctor to see that... that Second Thing, and tell her, if she’s ill to seek a doctor, don’t delay Uncle Wang from playing with me!"
Qingmei nodded, "Yes."
Watching her leave, Bai Zhi’er hugged Prince Kang’s arm.
"Third Uncle, don’t go, that Second Aunt can see you every day, but Zhi Bao comes out of the palace and can only play with you for a little while."
Prince Kang was moved by her sweet and adorable demeanor.
No allure of a pretty concubine could compare.
He picked Bai Zhi’er up, placing her on his shoulders.
"Uncle Wang won’t go, just stay and play with Zhi’er, okay? Come, Zhi Bao, Uncle Wang will teach you to ride a big horse!"
