Chapter 310 Ugly Hat
Chapter 310 Ugly Hat
"what……"
"Wolf……"
"Wolves...there are wolves..."
After finishing her breakfast, Princess Yuqing sat on the chaise longue and did needlework.
Suddenly, a piercing scream came from outside.
Before I knew it, the needle pricked my index finger.
Blood immediately gushed from her slender, white fingers.
Princess Yuqing frowned, a hint of anger on her face. "Who is making a scene outside?"
Unlike before, this injection went in quite deep and hurt a lot.
Granny Feng quickly and silently took out a handkerchief and ointment. "Your Highness, please calm down. This old servant will apply the medicine for you first."
After speaking, he gave the maid beside him a look.
The maid understood and withdrew.
A short while later, she came running back.
"Your Highness... there are wolves... there are wolves in the Princess's residence," the maid said tremblingly.
“How can you be so impetuous in front of Her Highness the Princess?” Granny Feng glanced at her.
What kind of place is the princess's residence? Even birds outside might not be able to get in, so where would wolves come from?
That's alarmist.
"Your Highness, it's true, it was Miss Jiang from next door... riding... riding a wolf, I saw it with my own eyes." The maid was almost crying.
She only saw the dead wolves that the princes' guards had shot when she accompanied the princess to the royal hunting grounds.
This is the first time I've ever seen one that's alive and this big.
My legs were trembling with fear.
No wonder they've been faintly hearing wolf howls lately these past few days.
I thought it was coming from the back mountain.
I never imagined it was right next door; the thought alone sends chills down my spine.
Princess Yuqing looked at Granny Feng, "Did Miaomiao come riding a wolf?"
It sounds a bit absurd.
Suddenly, Granny Feng realized that she had only reported the matter of people to her master, and had not thought about the pets at all.
After all, the young princess kept so many animals that she couldn't even count them all.
Who would have thought the princess would be so audacious as to ride a wolf to the princess's residence? I wonder if she'll bring chickens, ducks, and geese next time.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
She quickly bowed and stepped forward, "Your Highness, this old servant remembers now, the young princess does indeed have two beloved pets, a white wolf and a little red bird."
Cao Jiayue still wanted that bird by all means, and King Jing had no choice but to dye one for her.
As a result, the bird's color faded after it got rained on.
The little girl cried even harder.
Princess Miaomiao was able to ride a wolf and swagger in because the princess had instructed the servants not to stop any young girl from coming to the princess's residence.
You can go wherever you want.
Princess Yuqing was quite excited when she heard that her daughter had arrived, and she didn't take the wolf seriously at all.
Thinking it was probably just a wolf cub, Miao Miao was indeed daring, daring to keep a wolf as a pet.
He was about to get up to greet them.
However, the next moment, she froze on the spot, her smile frozen on her face.
His pupils dilated instantly.
A white shadow appeared and moved at the doorway.
What a huge white wolf!
It's a fully grown wolf, maybe even the wolf king.
A gasp of surprise erupted inside the hall.
In the blink of an eye, the little guy slid off the wolf's back and ran towards her, calling out, "Auntie... Princess Auntie..."
Miao Miao ran over, and the white wolf followed her in eagerly.
Princess Yuqing's brow twitched.
Without realizing it, I took a few steps back.
Looking at the little creature rushing towards her and the white wolf behind her, she felt a chill run down her spine.
She was afraid that the wolf would also pounce on the little one.
Fortunately, when Miaomiao came to her side, the white wolf wisely stopped and calmly sat down in the lower seat.
Princess Yuqing gasped.
"Don't be afraid, it won't bite." Jiang Miaomiao wrapped one arm around Princess Yuqing's neck and pointed at the white wolf with the other.
Princess Yuqing forced a wry smile, "What's its name?"
"Jiang Xiaobai." Jiang Miaomiao began to introduce the little red bird and her little sister that she had brought.
"Princess Aunt, this is my cousin Zhizhi."
"This is my little red bird, named Chirp Chirp. If it flies over to play, Auntie must not hurt it."
Chiu Chiu is very perceptive; if she hadn't followed her, she wouldn't have flown towards the princess's residence.
They only dared to linger near the courtyard wall.
Perhaps it sensed that the princess's residence was in danger.
Princess Yuqing nodded, but she didn't hear what the little guy was saying.
His eyes remained fixed on the white wolf.
The guards around it kept their eyes glued to it, afraid that it might make any sudden move and hurt the princess.
Granny Feng had already silently stood in front of the princess, keeping a close eye on her mistress's safety.
After watching for a while, the white wolf actually dozed off, but they still dared not relax for a moment.
It was quite tiring.
I just hope the little girl will leave with her wolf soon.
Jiang Miaomiao thought they were making a big fuss over nothing, and she would bring Xiaobai here more often in the future.
"Princess Aunt, my garden is too small, not enough for Xiaobai to run around in. Your garden is quite big and suitable for walking wolves. Can I bring Xiaobai here often?"
"Yes, you can come every day." Princess Yuqing smiled and touched her little scallion flower.
She thought to herself that the child really did take after her.
I remember keeping cats and dogs as pets when I was a child.
But her mother often said that these things were a waste of time and energy, so she stopped raising them.
They only raised the pets for Jia Yue to play with after they got married, but she petted them so badly they were miserable.
My fifth brother also used to love raising these little things.
I remember once my fifth brother had a cat, and the cat stole some of the snacks on his table that he hadn't even touched yet.
Then the cat died.
The manner of his death was gruesome.
My fifth brother was still young then, and he was so scared that he hid in her arms.
I never raised them again after that.
Miaomiao doesn't keep cats or dogs, but she keeps wolves.
This is practically like raising a mount for herself; this wolf can probably protect her too.
Because she loved the house, she naturally had to treat the white wolf well as well.
She instructed Granny Feng, "Take Xiaobai to get something to eat."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the little white wolf, who had been dozing, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and his eyes were shining.
Princess Yuqing: ...This wolf can actually understand what she's saying.
Jiang Miaomiao noticed the small cape and hat in the sewing basket. The hat was a fluffy hat, and the cape was not yet sewn up.
They're all small, clearly children's items.
It's so thoughtful of a princess to sew things herself.
She looked up into the princess's beautiful eyes and, with a thick skin, asked, "Auntie Princess, is this for me?"
"Does Miaomiao like it?" Princess Yuqing said, putting the little hat on her head. "Winter is coming soon, and the winters in the capital are very cold. This will come in handy. The cloak is not finished yet. I will have someone send it to you when it is finished."
Jiang Miaomiao nodded and took off her hat to take a look.
Then she couldn't laugh anymore.
These stitches...
She's just as good as her mother.
My mother prefers swords and spears to such things, and rarely deals with these delicate gadgets.
Princess Yuqing was born into a noble family and had no need to touch needlework.
To achieve this level of skill, just look at the fingers wrapped in cloth; you can tell it took a lot of effort.
Wearing clothes sewn by one's mother is still wearing clothes, and wearing a hat sewn by a princess is still wearing clothes.
So what if it's ugly?
They're both ugly.
This sentiment alone outweighs all the imperfections.
"I really like it, thank you, Princess Auntie." Miao Miao hugged the little hat tightly, unable to put it down.
He even gave the princess a quick kiss on the cheek.
Princess Yuqing's face lit up with a smile. A child doesn't despise its mother for being ugly; after all, she is her own child, and that makes all the difference.
She was overjoyed.
Granny Feng smiled with great satisfaction.
Blood is thicker than water, that's for sure.
