Ning Xu said, "Then we'll do as you suggest, delaying it by one year."
After all, Rongchuan had decided, and even if the Empress's sister wanted Rongchuan to marry early, it would be to no avail.
The next day, at breakfast, Zhulan saw Ming Teng, who had not slept well the night before, and her eyes were filled with amusement. The little fellow was so stingy, having felt heartache all night long. Zhulan couldn't help but not tell the youngster, who couldn't even enjoy his breakfast properly, "Your grandfather is off to the morning court session, and he used your Jade Pendant as a gift yesterday. He'll replace it for you later."
Ming Teng's mind worked quickly, and he immediately understood; his grandfather was telling him this morning as a way to teach him a lesson, to be more careful and steady in the future. He lowered his head to admit his mistake, "Grandma, your grandson knows he was wrong."
Zhulan smiled, "Remembering the lesson is good. Now, eat your breakfast."
