Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the end, under the Empress Dowager’s eager and expectant gaze, Su Qian took a deep breath and nodded. “Alright.”
The Empress Dowager was about to burst into laughter as she patted Su Qian’s shoulder happily and reminded her with a serious expression, “Child, don’t worry. I’ll get Xiao Jiu to accompany you and your children. I guarantee that no one will bully you.”
When the little ones heard this, they looked at Xiao Yan as if he was facing a great enemy.
They thought, “What? Ninth Uncle is going too?”
For a moment, the children looked at Xiao Yan with complicated gazes. They couldn’t understand why Ninth Uncle seemed to cling to them and couldn’t be shaken off no matter how hard they tried!
“Imperial Family prayer, I naturally have to attend.” Xiao Yan didn’t seem to notice the two little buns’ shocked gazes. Instead, he looked at the Empress Dowager and promised, “Imperial Grandmother, don’t worry. I will definitely ensure the safety of Qianqian and the children.”
The Empress Dowager nodded and then gave Xiao Yan a look.
She wouldn’t say that it was actually her Xiao Jiu who asked her to help invite Qianqian to pray together!

In any case, the more the Empress Dowager looked at Su Qian, the more she liked her. She was good in every way.
With the conversation reaching this point, the meal was almost over. Xiao Yan personally sent the mother and son trio back before returning to the Empress Dowager’s palace.
The Empress Dowager had already showered and changed her clothes. Her white hair scattered behind her. Seeing that Xiao Yan had returned, she couldn’t help but say in disdain, “Why did you come back just like that? Where’s Qianqian? Why aren’t you resting in her residence?”
Xiao Yan raised his head and looked at the Empress Dowager. His expression revealed a hint of coldness as he said, “Imperial Grandmother, Qianqian and I aren’t married yet. It is inappropriate for us to stay overnight in her residence.”
Xiao Yan’s words were so righteous that it was as if he wasn’t the one who had been pestering Su Qian and forcing her to stay in her room.
As expected, the Empress Dowager looked at Xiao Yan and rolled her eyes. “Xiao Jiu, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but are you a man or not? Look at you and Qianqian’s child growing up already. You haven’t settled Qianqian yet. How are you going to get a wife like this?”
The Empress Dowager spoke earnestly, and even her gaze towards Xiao Yan was filled with helplessness as if she was very disgusted. “I think you shouldn’t even think about hiding it from me. Do you really think that your Imperial Grandmother doesn’t know anything? I know that you definitely wanted to stay at Qianqian’s place, but in the end, you were chased out, so you came to my place, right?”
When Xiao Yan heard this, he looked up at the Empress Dowager and said faintly, “I originally came to thank Imperial Grandmother for her help and persuaded Qianqian to participate in the blessing. But now, it seems that Imperial Grandmother doesn’t welcome me.”
The Empress Dowager’s face was full of smiles as she patted Xiao Yan’s arm and said, “Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore! Look at you, you can’t take it anymore. You’re even angry! Look, Imperial Grandmother is doing this for your own good! Qianqian is a good girl. Imperial Grandmother is afraid that someone will set their eyes on my Imperial Granddaughter-in-law. If such a good girl is snatched away, then I will not be happy.”
“Imperial grandmother, don’t worry. I know what to do,” Xiao Yan said confidently.
“Alright, I see that you still have some understanding of Qian’er. At least you know that the child is willing to be coaxed and not forced. However, I don’t know if I am thinking too much, but I feel that your two children don’t seem to like you..”
