Right at this moment, Song Xiangsi just happened to return with Meng Ling Xuan. When he saw his father-in-law's expression, he knew that he still needed his help.
"I …" It was hard to say something like that to his wife, so of course the king wouldn't say it out loud.
"It's quite far to be from the capital. Why don't you stay for a few days?" Meng Ling Xuan knew that his wife was trying to meddle in other people's business again.
Song Xiangsi did not wait for the prince to agree before bringing the others home. It was as if she was pregnant and no one dared to offend her.
Indeed, since she was so brazen as to bring the prince in, Crown Princess Ding naturally didn't say anything when she saw him. Her face was dark the entire time, and she didn't have the slightest bit of interaction with the person she had been spending time with.
Prince Dingdong felt very awkward. He should have rejected his son's wife's suggestion and left in a carefree manner.
However, he couldn't do it. Even if he could only look at Ning Xiaoyao from afar, he was still willing to do it. Furthermore, Song Xiangsi had said that he would stay here for a few days.
"Mom, this is the egg drop soup that I just asked Meng Liangxuan to make. Do you want to try it?" Ever since he became pregnant, he had been thinking about eating different delicious foods every day.
Every single time, he would explain to Meng Ling Xuan what to do, and then watch from the side as Meng Ling Xuan personally acted. This was clearly the first time he had made an egg drop in the soup. However, under Song Xiangsi's direction, everything seemed fine.
"You're thinking too much. You're pregnant. Just eat more." If it was before, she would naturally be the first to let the prince have a taste. But this time was not the same as the past. She naturally did not need to consider the prince's thoughts.
But Meng Xiaoyuan felt rather awkward, and so he pulled his father out to chat with him. At this time, only the two of them, as two men, could have some common topics to talk about.
"Dad, can't you see what mom means?" You always have to fight for opportunities, don't you think? " Having spent so much time with Song Xiangsi, Meng Liangxuan naturally knew what to do to prevent his mother from getting angry.
Although he had shown enough sincerity, he had almost made up his mind at this time.
"I know. But you see, your mother doesn't want to bother with me at all. Even if I took the initiative, I wouldn't be able to do it!" Crown Prince Ning was helpless. He'd told quite a few things to Crown Princess in the past two days, but she hadn't even looked at him.
This was worse than being angry. No matter what ability he had, there was nowhere for him to use it.
"We can only rely on ourselves. Lovesick and I can't help dad anymore." Seeing that his wife had come out, Meng Huaxuan immediately retracted the words on the tip of his tongue and left while supporting Song Xiangsi.
When Princess Ding saw that the children had all gone out, she decided to do some needlework herself. She didn't know if it was because she was old or if it was because she had already poked him a few times, but she didn't have any intention of stopping.
"Tsk …" This time, it was really jabbed. The white handkerchief was stained with blood, and a blooming flower appeared on it.
"Let me see, how is it?" How could the Crown Prince bear to see his wife like this? She immediately grabbed ahold of Han Yunxi's hand and stopped the bleeding.
The atmosphere at the scene turned awkward, and the two of them didn't say anything for a long time.
"That... Where will you go after that? " She knew that the prince would not stay. She just could not bear to refuse Song Xiangsi's invitation.
The prince was suddenly stumped by the question. To be honest, he hadn't thought about what he should do in the future. The main purpose of this trip out of the capital was to find his wife and children. Now that he had found them, his goal seemed to be to live with them.
However, if he told his wife about this matter now, he would still be unable to see through her attitude. Thus, in order to protect his face, the prince would naturally not reveal the true thoughts in his heart.
"Of course there's a way, my wife, you don't have to worry." It's also been a long time since I've left the capital. The outside world is really exciting. " This was also the reason why he came here to reap the benefits of the prince. In reality, other than when he was looking for his wife and children, he had no time to pay attention to this wonderful scenery.
Now, he finally had a chance to take a break, but this kind of happiness was only temporary.
Song Xiangsi and Meng Ling Xuan had purposely left the two of them alone. Now that they were enjoying the cool air in the bamboo forest, they also came to the stream to catch fish. This was also one of the pleasures of Song Xiang and Meng Ling Xuan.
"I'm not worried about you, I'm just asking. "You are currently living in my house, so when I asked you when you were going to leave, it was to prepare your own plans." She was afraid that the prince would misunderstand, so she explained it herself.
His face suddenly turned red. At his age, he could even blush. She turned away, not wanting to let the prince see her expression.
"What happened to my wife?" He realized that it had been a long time since he last noticed the princess consort, but he actually didn't notice that she was shorter than before. So it turned out that they were all old.
Time no longer passed. Time flowed by. Those days they spent together, it was as if they could still be clearly remembered. Now that they thought about it, every single one of them was engraved in their hearts.
"It's nothing. Hurry up and get out. I'm not feeling too well right now. It's time for me to rest." He chased Prince Ding out without a second word.
She was alone in her room when she fell into deep thought.
He had clearly already thought about it, so how could he change his mind at this moment?
She knew that her past with the Prince could not be erased no matter what, and she had no intention of forgetting. She only wanted to learn how to put it down.
During the time she had lived with Song Xiangsi, she had learned a lot from this junior who was much younger than her.
"He's so old, but he can actually be moved!" Her words were laughable, but today, when Prince Ding rushed over to see the injury on her hand, she was stunned.
If this was before, she would definitely be particularly touched. But now, their relationship had long since changed.
"Dad, we've given you a lot of time. How is it today? Mother still doesn't want to care about you? " Song Xiangsi pulled Meng Ling Xuan along, while Meng Ling Xuan carried the two fish.
At first, they thought that they would be able to see their parents getting along after returning, but in the end, they miscalculated.
She was alone in her room, and the prince drank some wine in the back mountains. The wine was brewed by Meng Fang Xuan. He had just taken it out these few days and it tasted pretty good.
This was also the first time he drank since coming here. He didn't know where he would go from now on if he couldn't get back his wife.
In his plan, he would not leave. But if his existence really made her sad, how could he bear to part with her?
"Am I right to do this?" He refilled his cup and drank it all in one gulp.
