âWhere is she?â
âSheâs outside, busy tidying up.â
Jiang Ning nodded.
She quite liked Huang Ying, this girl was smart, steady, and knew how to do things with discretion.
Seeing her sitting there in a small bellyband, Chunlai felt a bit frightened.
âThe Prince is welcoming guests in the front yard now, he could come at any time,â she cautiously reminded Jiang Ning, trying her best to get her to put on clothes.
Jiang Ning ate cakes and drank water, âDonât worry, he wonât come.â
Look at Prince of Yuâs eyes and tone during the day.
He only married her to be a mascot, he would never look at her.
Chunlai was puzzled, âHow does the lady know His Highness wonât come?â
âIf you were a man, would you want to be with a cripple?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAlthough the ladyâs legs are not good, it doesnât prevent her from having children,â Chunlai frowned, âItâs the first day of the wedding. If His Highness doesnât come, it would not sound good if it gets out. Tomorrow, the joyous handkerchief still has to be taken to the palaceâ¦â
âWhat joyous handkerchief?â
âThat oneâ¦â Chunlaiâs face turned red, and she whispered, âThe one on the bed.â
Jiang Ning glanced back and saw a white handkerchief spread on the bed.
She probably understood.
Although she had heard about it, she didnât expect there would be such a thing.
It was for verifying whether the new bride was a virgin.
As a modern person, she, of course, understood that not every woman would bleed.
As for the situation in ancient times, the girls were married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and their bodies hadnât developed yet, so consummation could be harmful.
Naturally, there would be some bleeding.
Jiang Ning despised this thing in her heart, but she knew that this was how the feudal society was, oppressing and hurting women, objectifying them.
In her current state, she probably wouldnât bleed.
However, it didnât matter, as Prince of Yu wouldnât come anyway.
Would she care if she was embarrassed?
There was just one thing, if Prince of Yu didnât come all this time, how could she put a green hat on him, making him a cuckold?
She was already three months pregnant, but due to her slim build, it was not apparent yet.
However, her belly would eventually grow.
In any case, she had to find a way to make Prince of Yu visit once.
Jiang Ning ate while rubbing her chin in thought.
Soon, Huang Ying finished tidying up and came in. When she saw Jiang Ningâs attire, she paused for a moment, then smiled and said, âYou look quite refreshing like this, lady. However, it might be better if you cover yourself when the Prince comes later.â
She handed Jiang Ning a robe and draped it over her shoulders.
Jiang Ning had already cooled down, so she didnât refuse, smiling and saying, âThank you for saving me, Sister Huang Ying.â
Huang Ying chuckled, âIâve said it before, weâre fated. From now on, Iâll stay by the Princess Consortâs side.â
âI wish for nothing more.â
âThe Prince will be here soon, you should sit by the bed,â Huang Ying reached out to help her.
Jiang Ning smiled, âWill he really come?â
âOf course, todayâs the big day,â Huang Ying helped her back to the bed, coaxing and persuading her to put on her clothes, fix her hair, and put on her veil.
Although it was hot, for sweet and gentle Huang Yingâs sake, Jiang Ning endured it.
As they waited, half an hour, an hour passedâ¦
It was suddenly the Hai hour (9 pm-11 pm).
The noise in the front yard gradually faded away.
The banquet must have ended.
Huang Ying and Chunlai took turns going out to check and wait, but they never saw Prince of Yuâs shadow.
Jiang Ning was already lying on the bed yawning.
That scoundrel Prince of Yu really didnât come..
