Chapter 785 - 375: Imperial Great-grandson_2
The Eldest Princess of Tai Feng had just been reminiscing with Madam Liang, "The pastries made by Maiden Xiu are indeed delectable, no wonder the Grand Empress Dowager looks forward to them every day. Ever since I’ve tasted them twice, it’s as if a craving has been hooked onto me, and I find myself longing for more."
Suppressing a smile, Huang Jinyu said, "Your great-granddaughter-in-law will head back to her family home today, and I’ll have my sister-in-law prepare some more for you."
The Eldest Princess smiled at first, then shook her head, "Never mind, others will talk if they find out the old lady has such a sweet tooth."
While they were talking, a servant came to report that Grandma Qian had sent over some pastries.
The Eldest Princess’s eyes crinkled in delight, "Such a thoughtful child, knowing exactly what to send over when one is craving for it."
On the morning of February 4th, Pan Yue sent Jingjing and Yuaner over, informing them that the Crown Princess Consort had gone into labor and she was rushing to the Eastern Palace to attend to the situation. Since Jingjing and Yuaner didn’t want to stay at home alone, they were sent to their sister’s place.
Upon hearing the news, Qian Yixiu was also anxious and couldn’t focus on anything. She sat on the kang with the children, telling them stories.
It seemed that only by immersing herself in storytelling could her heart cease its fluttering.
The anxious wait was an excruciatingly difficult experience.
