The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 1169 - 992, Ignore

"Princess Consort, these are visiting cards from the An Family, Du Family, Chang Family, and Yuan Family. They have expressed their desire to visit tomorrow," Guyu respectfully handed the papers to Daohua.

Daohua received them, raising an eyebrow, "It’s better they agreed to come together, saves me from meeting each one individually."

This pregnancy has been much harder than the last; she has been particularly sleepy these past two months, not in the mood to entertain Prince Zhou Xuan’s relatives.

Guyu replied with a smile, "This servant thought they would wait a couple more days before visiting."

Daohua scoffed, "The various princes take it as fulfilling their filial duty to their teacher, delaying too long just shows their insincerity."

Speaking of which, she thought for a moment.

"Later, go talk to the kitchen and ask them to prepare more of the pastries that the children love for tomorrow."

These days, seeing her son happily coming and going with his playmates, she no longer resisted the idea of having those princely grandchildren at the house.

Her son is at an age where he is playful and likes to make new friends; getting to know more peers helps improve his social and communication skills.

Although she and Xiao Yeyang have selected some children to accompany their son, most of them tend to give in to him, which isn’t beneficial for his growth in the long run.

The new princely grandsons, each being the precious darlings of their families, will surely spark various interactions with her son.

Guiding him through these conflicts can quickly develop his problem-solving skills.

Thinking this way, Daohua felt much better, having extra playmates for her son wasn’t a bad idea after all!

...

The next day, the Madams from An, Du, and other families brought a few princely grandsons to the Wei Yuan Prince Residence.

Seeing Guyu waiting at the door to welcome the guests did not seem unusual to others, but Old Madam An frowned slightly, displeasure crossing her face.

She is the mother of the Noble Consort, representing not just the Noble Consort and the Crown Prince, but also the An Family on this visit. Given her seniority, both logically and emotionally, a lady from the Yan Family should have personally come out to meet her.

It was one thing not to show up at the city gate earlier, but now that she has arrived at the doorstep, only sending a maid to receive her truly showed a lack of respect.

Lady An noticed her mother-in-law’s expression, immediately understood that Princess Consort Xiao’s absence had displeased her, and felt a headache coming on, subtly pulling at Old Madam An’s sleeve without causing any commotion.

Princess Consort Xiao is a disciple of the Duke of the State, and if the An Family still wanted the Crown Prince’s legitimate young son to inherit the dukedom, they definitely couldn’t afford to offend Princess Consort Xiao.

Old Madam An understood this point too; she concealed her displeasure but still felt bitter inside. At her age, she still had to bow down to a junior!

Guyu noted everyone’s expressions and advanced with a smile, bowing, "My apologies, ladies, our Princess Consort is with child and unable to come out to welcome you personally. I hope you will not take offense."

Upon hearing this, Madam Du immediately laughed and responded, "The Princess Consort is too polite! Even if she weren’t pregnant, it would be unthinkable to trouble her to meet us."

Indeed, they may be the prince’s relatives by marriage, but she is a bona fide Princess Consort!

Even in the court when meeting the four consorts, she wouldn’t need to kneel.

Guyu’s smile deepened considerably, as the Du Family, being relatives of the Second Prince, knew far better how to behave compared to the Crown Prince’s relatives from the An Family: "Please follow me inside."

The main courtyard.

As Daohua heard from the maid that Old Madam An and the others were about to arrive, she thought for a moment and then decided to get up, stepping out of the room to vaguely greet the coming guests under the eaves.

Although the Prince Residence need not cling to the various princes, maintaining good relations with each family was still essential on the surface.

It was only a moment later when the group, led by Old Madam An, entered the main courtyard.

Seeing Daohua waiting under the eaves, Madam Du and the others hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Old Madam An, supported by her granddaughter, did not move.

The servants in the courtyard saw this and felt somewhat dissatisfied.

Daohua didn’t mind, she couldn’t bring herself to let an old woman with graying hair bow to her, but she did indeed dislike the scrutinizing gaze of Old Madam An.

This Old Madam seems to have forgotten that this is not the An Family, but the Prince Residence of Wei Yuan!

She is not merely a lady or maiden that she usually meets, but a Princess Consort!

Xiao Yeyang once mentioned that because of Consort An’s control of the harem, the Crown Prince had become the most popular candidate for the throne, and the An Family rose with the tide as well.

Old Madam An now, not regarding her even as a Princess Consort, was truly arrogant.

With an attitude of not respecting greetings, Daohua naturally couldn’t be bothered, glanced at Old Madam An once, then withdrew her gaze, smiling towards the princes.

Seeing the youngest about the same age as Daozi, she inwardly shook her head.

The fifth prince really dares, not afraid of what problems might occur on the road because of such a young child.

"The princes have come a long way, you must be tired, my dear nephews. I have specially prepared delicious cakes for you, come inside and have some," she said, beckoning the princes into the room.

Hearing about the cakes, the princes immediately followed her inside.

They have been in Lailiang Capital for two days now, they are not accustomed to other food, but the cakes sold in Lailiang Capital are very tasty.

Old Madam An was waiting for Daohua to call her proactively, but Daohua led the princes into the house without paying any attention to her, completely ignoring her, which immediately enraged her.

Madam Du and the others smiled meaningfully.

Old Madam An, accustomed to being in charge at the An Family, thought that everyone would yield to her, showing off in front of someone else’s Princess Consort, she is really regressing with age. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Even before she married the Prince of Wei Yuan, Xiao Yeyang dared to confront the Jiang Family head-on, Old Madam An actually thought she could overshadow her in the Prince Residence, what was she thinking?

Madam An the Third watched her mother-in-law’s angry face with weariness and whispered softly, "Mother, the princes have gone inside, let’s hurry in too."

Old Madam An took several deep breaths to suppress her rage.

A woman of the Yan Family, indeed born of humble origins, daring to disregard such proprieties, and she is a guest and an elder, ignoring her so blatantly, truly lacking the demeanor of a head of household.

Old Madam An felt extremely humiliated, ever since her daughter became a noble Consort, wherever she went, everyone was respectful, only people like the Yan Family women, lacking in upbringing, could commit such tactless acts.

"Mother~"

Madam An the Third looked worriedly at Old Madam An; it’s probably the first time her mother-in-law has been ignored to such an extent, and she really feared her mother-in-law might cause a scene in the Prince Residence.

Old Madam An, after all, did not forget the purpose of her long journey to Xiliang, suppressed her anger, and followed her daughter-in-law inside.

After entering the house, still feeling indignant, Old Madam An approached Daohua, slowly bent her knees in a gesture to perform a courtesy: "Old Madam An pays respect to Princess Consort Xiao." She couldn’t believe that the woman from Yan Family would accept her salute.

Daohua had just handed a plate of pastries to the youngest prince, seeing Old Madam An saluting her, her expression did not change much, sitting steadily. Only after Old Madam An bent down did she speak, "Old Madam, please rise."
