Spring Secrets

Chapter 86: Eighty-six Cancellation of Engagement

Views:

When Wei An arrived, Princess Zhennan was desperately trying to stop Zhuang Feng from making a fuss. Her usual gentle smile was gone, and she was left with only panic and undisguised anxiety. She shouted at Zhuang Feng in a stern voice, "Shut up!"

The old princess sat still on the bed, her white hair scattered because of the rush, making her look even older and more haggard. She covered her mouth and coughed a few times, trying to stop Princess Zhennan with a smile: "Don't stop him. For a woman, he didn't care about his family, didn't listen to his parents, and his grandmother became a wicked woman... Does he look like a young master? He is clearly an ignorant playboy!"

Zhuang Feng's eyes were bloodshot. He struggled to get rid of Princess Zhennan's hand and looked at the old princess: "I don't know what's going on?! You are biased!" He felt very wronged and choked with sobs: "Wei An is your granddaughter, so am I not your grandson? Who will serve you in the future? Who will raise you? Who will break the pot for you?! How can you be so biased? Don't you ask your grandson if he likes it or not, if he is willing or not..."

Princess Zhennan could no longer bear it, her lips were trembling, and she slapped him with a trembling hand: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

The old princess sat on the bed in silence, raised the corner of her mouth, and glanced at them: "You didn't say that before."

The words "You didn't say that before" made Princess Zhennan blush from face to neck. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "Mother, I am sorry for you..."

When the old princess wanted to adopt Prince Zhennan, she made it very clear that the only condition was that he had to take care of Princess Changning. After Princess Changning gave birth to Wei Jie, she gave birth to Zhuang Feng. However, as both were boys, the plan failed. But when Princess Changning gave birth to Wei An, who was brought back to Jianzhou by the old princess herself, she asked Prince Zhennan to promise that she would get Wei An engaged to Zhuang Feng when he grew up.

Princess Zhennan had never thought about it before. When she was unhappy, she always felt that it was a blessing to get a title for free. How could she ask for more? Besides, the old princess only asked for a marriage. But as the days passed, her gratitude decreased a little bit, and she suddenly became not so satisfied with the promise at the beginning.

How could Wei An be worthy of his son

She is unscrupulous and has a heart as small as a needle. She relies on the fact that she is the granddaughter of the old princess to give people a cold shoulder...

Besides, her son doesn't like her.

But now when the old princess mentioned the past, all the worries she had hidden in her heart came out - if the old princess sued them for being unfilial, they would lose everything...

This is the disadvantage of not being a biological child. When they do well, everyone thinks it is their due. But once they do not do well, others think they are unfilial. This hat can be devastating to a person.

She choked with sobs and knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the old princess: "He was confused for a moment..."

The old princess could tell whether he was confused for a moment. She sneered and was about to make a decision when she looked up and saw Wei An standing next to the pearl curtain.

She was small and thin, with red eyes, like a lost puppy, with her tail tucked in, looking very pitiful.

The old princess couldn't help but feel sad. She wasn't dead yet, but these people were mistreating her like this. Once she closed her eyes, what would happen to An An without her parents' care

Zhuang Feng could not see the sadness of the old princess. His heart and eyes were filled with only his cousin. He stared at Wei An and said, "I will not marry you. You'd better give up that idea as soon as possible!"

The old princess's eyes became colder and colder. Princess Zhennan's heart was beating fast. She clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into her palms. She looked at her son almost pleadingly: "Shut up!"

The old princess was no longer angry. She stroked Wei An's hair, held Wei An in her arms, and looked at Zhuang Feng. She was actually in the mood to laugh: "Do you think your cousin is good?"

Zhuang Feng pursed his lips, revealing his boyish stubbornness: "It's better than her!"

The old princess nodded calmly: "Since you think she is good, are you willing to marry her?"

This time, before Zhuang Feng could react, Princess Zhennan's eyes widened in surprise: "Mother!"

A niece from your mother's side is a niece from your mother's side, but a niece from your mother's side is not as important as your own son! Li Shenglan has nothing with her parents dead, and she lost her virginity before marriage... ...

Zhuang Feng was not stupid. He hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything.

Men are always so heartless.

Wei An suddenly interrupted. She stepped forward to help Princess Zhennan up, stared at her seriously and called her aunt, then sighed and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble..."

Princess Zhennan was in doubt and almost suspected that Wei An had taken the wrong medicine. She smiled and shook her head reluctantly. Compared with Li Shenglan, Wei An was much better. At least Wei An married Zhuang Feng, which made the old princess happy. The old princess's rich private treasury was basically for Wei An...

Wei An didn't wait for Princess Zhennan to say anything else, and turned to look at Zhuang Feng: "Of course my grandmother treats you as her own grandson, otherwise why would she think of helping you and sending you to Uncle Qin in Jizhou? You also know that my grandmother loves me, and it is precisely because she treats you as her own grandson that she wants to leave her most beloved thing to you..."

Zhuang Feng was confused by her words: "Anyway..."

"But it is precisely because she loves you that grandma has changed her mind." Wei An told her sincerely: "Although it is not reasonable for you to decide your own marriage, our family is an exception. After all, we have been betrothed since childhood... So I have discussed it with grandma, let's just forget about this marriage."

Princess Zhennan hadn't come to her senses yet, her forehead was throbbing violently.

Zhuang Feng had a happy look on his face: "You really..."

The old princess had already spoken for Wei An. She glanced at Wei An first, beckoned Wei An to come over, and then looked at Princess Zhennan and Zhuang Feng with a smile: "It's true. Since you don't like her, then find someone you like." She turned to look at Princess Zhennan and said, "Your niece is not bad either. Why don't you just marry her? You pick a date and just get it done..."

Princess Zhennan's face turned pale, as if she had swallowed a fly alive, and she waved her hands vigorously: "No... Mother..."

The old princess ignored her and looked at Zhuang Feng again: "You said that grandma doesn't love you, so grandma will love you for once. Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words, but since you don't want to, grandma will let you do it. You like your cousin, so marry her as your principal wife."

Wei An did not make a fuss, the old princess did not use threats or inducements, and Zhuang Feng had expected to act as a knight to protect his cousin, but he did not meet an opponent and was immediately at a loss.

Second update. Seeing that you guys let me sleep with a quilt without air conditioning... Don’t even think about it. I must turn on the air conditioner today, humph!
