1831 You Don’t Need To Be So Nervous
“Mother.” Long Yin stepped forward with He’an and bowed in greeting to Lu Liangwei.

Lu Liangwei said with a smile, “We’re all family here. There is no need to be so formal.” Her gaze fell on Yuan You and He’an while she spoke.

He’an came forward and bowed while giving her a palm and fist salute. “Greeting to Your Highness.”

Lu Liangwei immediately stood up and helped him up. She said with delight, “Why, He’an is so grown up now.”

He’an felt a little shy when he heard this. He was unlike his usually cheeky self as he was very well-behaved today. His good-looking face was actually blushing a little as he snuck a quiet glance at Lu Liangwei, and quickly lowered his head later.

Aunt Weiwei was really pretty. Oh no, why was his heart beating faster and faster?

It was at this time when Yuan You stepped forward as well. She bowed at Lu Liangwei. “Greetings to you, Your Highness.”

Lu Liangwei helped her up and gave her a good look. She praised, “So, you’re Youyou. What a pretty girl you are.”

Yuan You worked up the courage to lift her head and took a glance. Her jaw dropped when she saw Lu Liangwei’s beautiful face.

Lu Liangwei touched her face when she saw Yuan You’s expression. She asked with a smile, “Do I look that bad?”

Yuan You quickly shook her head. “No, it’s not that. I’m just overwhelmed by your beauty. I’ve always heard about you, Your Highness, but have never had the chance to meet you. Now that I have, I will never forget this day. You’re so beautiful. It’s hard to believe that you’re now a grandmother. If we were to walk on the streets together, others would mistake us for sisters. You look so young and pretty.”

Qi Heng, Hexin, and the others glanced at Yuan You from the corner of their eyes.

This girl was unexpectedly glib with her tongue.

Lu Liangwei may be in her thirties and was already a grandmother, but it still put her in a great mood to be praised in such a manner. She could not stop smiling as she caressed Yuan You’s face. She said with a smile, “You are such a sweet-talker.”

Yuan You replied seriously, “I’m not sweet-talking at all. Your Highness is really beautiful and youthful.”

Lu Liangwei laughed softly. She said to everyone, “This girl is so adorable. Too bad I don’t have any more sons, otherwise, I’d really like to have you as my daughter-in-law too.”

Yaoyao chuckled as she said, “It’s good that you don’t have any more sons, Mother, or all my friends will be married to Great Shang and I won’t have anyone left to accompany me. Come over here and sit next to me, Youyou.”

Yuan You’s face turned red at being teased by them, but she still listened to Yaoyao and sat next to her.

“I’ve heard you’re pregnant, Your Highness. I haven’t congratulated you yet.”

“It’s not too late to congratulate me now.” Yaoyao leaned against Beitang You as she lazily ate a grape fed by him.

However, she did not expect to suddenly choke on the grape juice as she began coughing.

Beitang You looked like he was facing a great enemy when he saw this and he quickly patted Yaoyao’s back as he said anxiously, “What’s wrong?” He looked at Lu Liangwei at the same time and said, “Mother, can you take a look at Yaoyao?”

Lu Liangwei stood where she was without moving and said with slight exasperation, “Youyou, it was just a choke. It’s not serious. You don’t need to be so nervous.”

“But…” Beitang You could not help feeling worried when he saw Yaoyao turn red from coughing.

Yaoyao patted his hand. “I’m fine, I’m fine. I really just choked. You don’t need to act like it’s anything serious.”

Yuan You watched them both in astonishment.

Lu Liangwei said with a smile, “Don’t be surprised by this. Your Emperor has been acting this way since he found out Yaoyao was pregnant.”

Yuan You felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She felt it was better for her to sit a little further from Yaoyao. She would not be able to take responsibility if anything happened to Yaoyao.
