The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1309

Chapter 1309: Chapter 1108: The Suppleness Around the Fingers of Little Prince Xiao (20)_2

Ping Tong chuckled and said, "I am the butler nanny by Old Madam’s side, and she specifically instructed me early this morning to come greet Madam Wang."

When Madam Wang heard that the butler nanny of the Yan Family’s Old Madam had come personally to greet her, her face immediately beamed with pride. Noticing the surrounding glances, the smile on her face grew even broader: "The Old Madam is too kind."

Ping Tong exchanged pleasantries as she led Madam Wang and her two companions to the backyard, all the while sizing up Miss Wang and Second Miss Wang.

These two young ladies are nothing special!

Their looks are just about passable, but among today’s gathering of noble young women, there are plenty who are far more beautiful. As for their demeanor and conduct, well, that’s another discussion entirely. Could these sorts of girls really catch Little Prince’s eye?

Could it be that the Old Prince made a mistake?

Upon seeing the butler nanny from Old Madam’s household personally receiving the Wang family trio, the people nearby began inquiring about Madam Wang’s origins.

On the way, Ping Tong smiled and asked, "Madam Wang, which one is Miss Ye?"

Madam Wang’s smile froze for a moment but quickly resumed its composure. "Nanny must be referring to Yueying. That child stayed home to care for her maternal grandmother."

At these words, Ping Tong suddenly paused mid-step, her face full of astonishment as she looked at Madam Wang: "Miss Ye didn’t come?!"

Due to her shock, her voice was louder than usual, immediately drawing the attention of those around them.

Madam Wang hadn’t anticipated such an extreme reaction from Ping Tong and began feeling a faint unease.

Ping Tong motioned toward Miss Wang and Second Miss Wang. "And they are?"

Madam Wang chuckled awkwardly and said, "These are my two incompetent daughters."

Upon hearing this, Ping Tong was left speechless. Their family had gone out of their way to organize this plum blossom banquet for what purpose? Wasn’t it all to meet Little Prince’s favored Miss Ye? Who would’ve thought the star of the occasion didn’t even show up!

Seeing the enthusiasm drain completely from Ping Tong’s face, Madam Wang had no choice but to awkwardly speak up: "Nanny, what seems to be the matter?"

Ping Tong glanced coolly at Madam Wang. A young lady like Ye Yueying, merely living under another’s roof, failed to appear, yet here came her two daughters all dressed to the nines. With her years of experience managing inner courtyards, how could she fail to spot that something was amiss?

"Madam Wang, to be honest, our Old Madam and Elder Old Madam were keen to meet Miss Ye. But unexpectedly, she didn’t come. In that case, I must hurry back to inform them. You may join the others in the courtyard to enjoy the plum blossoms."

Who was he? As a prince, he had encountered countless individuals. Gazing at Miss Wang and Second Miss Wang’s flustered, evasive expressions, he could instantly tell that these two were not pure-hearted individuals.

Had his grandson lost his mind? Could he actually be interested in women like them?

Yan Wentao continued, "During the Northern Frontier battle years ago, I fought side by side with General Ye. When he passed away, I was deeply grieved. I wonder, who here might be Miss Ye?"

Once more, hearing Miss Ye Yueying’s name mentioned, Madam Wang felt dread creep in. So many people were watching, leaving her no choice but to repeat her earlier explanation: "Yueying stayed home to care for her maternal grandmother."

"Neither of these ladies is Miss Ye, then?"

Prince Ping suddenly raised his voice in inquiry.

Madam Wang was startled and hurriedly replied, "They’re merely my two incompetent daughters."

Usually, people ingratiated themselves with Prince Ping. Except when dealing with the Emperor, Crown Prince, or Great Grandson, Prince Ping seldom tempered his temper. Without sparing anyone’s feelings, he declared:

"Where is Miss Ye? The invitation sent to your family was specifically intended for her to attend the plum blossom banquet. Now your entire family shows up, leaving her behind—what’s the meaning of this?"
