Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage

Chapter 734: Chapter 734: Fireworks All Over the Sky

Jiang Ning listened silently to his sigh and didn’t say anything.

If she asked why he sighed, it would inevitably lead to a conversation, and if he brought up his heartaches, she would have to think of a bunch of comforting words.

That might be a bit troublesome.

Right now, she just wanted to quietly enjoy the fireworks.

Fortunately, Li Hongyuan didn’t take the initiative to talk to her, but just stood there quietly.

After setting off a box of large fireworks, several children couldn’t resist itching to try it themselves and clamored to set off some too.

Jiang Yi had already made preparations.

There was another box full of small gadgets, some that could be held in their hands and some that spun on the ground after being lit.

There were also some that looked like lanterns, to be held in their hands.

All kinds of colors and shapes, their eyes were filled with them.

Some of them Jiang Ning had never seen before.

She couldn’t help but sigh that the ancient people’s ingenuity was no worse than modern industrial assembly lines.

When the older brothers from the main house learned that Jiang Ning had returned with the two children, they came over one after another to join in the fun, each bringing their own newly found variety of fireworks.

The children became even more excited.

Fireworks hissed and spun all over the courtyard.

The surrounding maids and servants were also excited to watch the festivities.

The Jiang family had always been tolerant towards their servants, and on holidays like these, they were willing to let them join in together, so they didn’t mind them gathering around to watch.

Jiang Ning let Huang Ying and other maids go to their own families to celebrate.

Only Gucheng remained by her side.

Jiang Ning once gave him half a day off, but he went out for half a day before slipping back quietly, not saying where he had been or what he had done. Jiang Ning didn’t ask either.

At this moment, he was squatting on the roof, staring blankly at the brilliant colors filling the courtyard.

It was really too cold outside. After watching for a while, Jiang Ning felt the chill attacking her legs, even the joints of her bones felt chilled.

Her legs were too precious to withstand any bit of suffering.

“Let’s go back inside.” Li Hongyuan reached out his hand.

Jiang Ning put her hand on his palm and went back inside together with him to the warm house.

Inside the house were only Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan, eating and talking over a dozen plates of dried fruit and snacks.

Seeing them come in, they quickly stood up to pay their respects.

“No need.” Li Hongyuan raised his hand, “I won’t disturb your sisters’ conversation.” He then said to Jiang Ning, “I’ll go look after the children and come back to pick you up to return to the palace later.”

“Alright.”

Jiang Ning watched him go and sat down next to Jiang Yan, grabbing a handful of melon seeds with a smile and asking, “What were you talking about? Include me.”

Jiang Yan’s face turned slightly red.

Jiang Yuan chuckled, “I was just saying that if Prince Zhao could be like the Crown Prince, then Sixth Sister would indeed be very fortunate.”

“How is he like the Crown Prince?”

“Isn’t it obvious? The Crown Prince’s affection and consideration for Seventh Sister is well-known.” Jiang Yuan whispered, “I heard that Silla Kingdom sent a beauty to the East Palace? Has the Crown Prince favored her yet?”

“Not yet.”

“The Crown Prince is really a rare breed.” Jiang Yuan pursed her lips, “If it were any other man, they would have been impatient.”

Jiang Ning just laughed and didn’t say anything.

She never had any illusions about the weaknesses of men.

Before leaving, Jiang Ning asked Jiang Yan seriously whether she needed to think about it again, or meet Prince of Zhao a few more times and then make a decision.

She could create opportunities for them to meet.

Surprisingly, Jiang Yan declined.

She said she agreed to the marriage proposal.
