"I beg the lady's pardon, but I must deliver this letter directly into the master's hands." These were letters from the Emperor and the Crown Prince; unless he personally handed them to his master, Meng Zhuqing dared not entrust them to anyone else.
An Jing: "..." How stubborn.
However, she could understand, so she didn't kindly take the letter.
Then she let Meng Zhuqing continue to kneel there, holding up the letter with both hands, waiting for Xiao Changyi with utmost respect.
Only after Xiao Changyi finished washing the dishes and dried his hands did he take the letter, glanced at An Jing, and didn't start reading it until An Jing walked up beside him.
An Jing was quite pleased with her husband's self-awareness.
The letters contained no important content, just some words expressing concern about how well Xiao Changyi was living and hoping he would visit them more often.
