Chapter 471 - 252 Moon_3
There was one jarring noise, the smacking sound of Old man Qian and Old woman Qian’s mouths.
Smack, smack, and smack...
Prince Consort Pan lost his appetite entirely, and after only a few bites of his meal, he put down his chopsticks and told Qian Sangui and the others to take their time, he had finished.
He then stood up and went over to the small bed to play with Jingjing and Ming Wa. Seeing that Cheng Yue had also stopped eating and was watching him coldly, he hurriedly said, "Don’t worry, I’m just playing with them, I won’t take them away."
Hearing this, Cheng Yue bowed her head and began to eat her meal gracefully.
Prince Consort Pan watched his daughter eat leisurely amidst such noise, seeming to treat being scolded by the matriarch as a regular occurrence. His heart was filled with both sourness and anger.
His daughter, beautiful and lovely as the moon, how noble and delicate she was back then. Even the Empress Dowager bestowed her the title of Princess Zhenyue, which is another way to appreciate the precious moon. She used the finest things, lived in the finest places, and had as many as a hundred people serving her. Even the daughters of the emperor were no better off.
Today, however, he could only watch helplessly as she was bullied to this extent by two coarse and ignorant people!
"Ah, ah..." Jingjing’s calling voice awakened Grandpa Pan from his indignation, and he quickly softened his gaze, smiling again and playing with the two children.
Old man Qian and Old woman Qian didn’t get their fill at the meal either. Seeing that the noble had become angry, they thought he was upset with Cheng Yue and couldn’t help but shoot her a few glares. Seeing that he had put aside his bowl and chopsticks, they too didn’t dare to eat much longer and put down their chopsticks as well.
Although Qian Yixiu couldn’t say she was very fond of Old man Qian and Old woman Qian, seeing Master Sangui’s heartache made her unhappy as well. Qian Yeejin was also displeased and kept comforting Old woman Qian with his eyes.
