Chapter 188

Time passed quickly amidst the busy preparations.

Before they knew it, the day of the children's hundred-day celebration had arrived.

They held the hundred-day feast at the Drunken Fragrance Tavern in Yiyang Town. Besides inviting Jiang Feng, Luo Ge also had someone send invitations to the Princess Consort of Nanyang and her family.

However, it was uncertain whether they would be able to come.

The village elders and relatives all came, as well as Wang Sister-In-Law and her family, Li Qiao and his wife, Hu Jun, and other friends.

While Luo Ge was busy entertaining the guests, Lady Qian and the others helped look after the babies. The entire tavern was bustling with activity.

"This little one is so handsome, he looks just like his father."

"This girl takes after her mother."

"Look at this tiny nose on such a small baby, it's so perky! And those big, bright eyes! The baby's skin is so fair and soft, truly beautiful!"

"They've certainly inherited the best features. They'll be absolutely adored when they grow up."

"Of course! Both their parents are exceptionally good-looking, so these little ones are bound to be just as lovely."

"I wonder whose lucky sons and daughters they'll end up with when they're older."

A group of women gathered around the babies, chattering excitedly and admiring them. The babies didn't fuss; instead, they blinked their big eyes, looking back at the cooing women.

"They're so well-behaved, unlike my little rascal at home."

Qin Mianmian watched the scene with fondness, then turned to look disapprovingly at her own son, who was either babbling noisily or trying to grab at everything within reach.

"Indeed, girls tend to be more docile. If you like, we could..." have another one.

Before Li Qiao could finish his sentence, Mianmian cut him off.

"Stop right there! Don't even think about it." Don't try to take advantage under the pretext of having a daughter.

They no longer had elders living with them at home.

As they climbed the stairs, the Princess Consort chatted with Luo Ge.

"We're delighted that you could come today, Sister Xi. If the Prince enjoys it, he's welcome anytime. We'll host, and Jin Chen can take him out for a proper adventure. Last time was a bit rushed and he couldn't fully enjoy himself."

"Mm!" The Princess Consort nodded at Luo Ge's words.

Beside them, the young prince's eyes lit up at the conversation. He tugged at the Princess Consort's clothes.

"Mother, I want to go next time too. Father said he'd take me."

"Alright, alright, we'll take you."

As they spoke, they arrived at the private room where Lady Qian and the others were already waiting.

Luo Shiyan was arguing with his father over seating: "Father, I'm your son. You should let me have it."

The seat in question was next to where Luo Ge and her family would sit.

He wanted to sit with his sister and be close to his little nephews and nieces.

"I'm older, son. You should be the one giving way to me."

Lady Qian and Ling Yun watched this exchange: "....."

"Both of you move aside. How can two grown men properly look after children? Stop fighting, I'll sit here to take care of the babies."

"My lady???"

"Mother???"

Father and son were stunned as they watched Lady Qian successfully take the seat. This wasn't fair!

Luo Ge, who had opened the door first, felt a bit embarrassed as the Princess Consort had overheard this exchange before even entering.

"What's this?" The Princess Consort was surprised to hear familiar voices.

"Uncle? Aunt? Cousin? Cousin-in-law?" As she entered and saw the people inside clearly, she called out in even greater surprise.
