Chapter 456: Chapter 247 Yueyue Doesn’t Recognize You_1

Suddenly, Jingjing let out a loud cry, and one hand grabbed hold of Prince Consort Pan’s left cheek, twisting it fiercely. Because of the excessive force, her little face turned bright red.

The wet nurse didn’t dare to come forward. Yixiu and Yijin, being short, couldn’t pry Jingjing’s hand away, so they kept shouting, "Jingjing, let go quickly..."

Prince Consort Pan patiently endured the pinching with a good temper, even saying, "It’s all right, I’m quite fond of Jingjing, let her..." Before he could finish, the expression on his face turned awkward.

Finally, Jingjing relaxed her body and let go of her grip, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but then they sensed something was amiss, as a smell began to spread.

The wet nurse hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Oh dear, did the child have a poopy accident?" With that, she promptly took Jingjing away, only to see that Prince Consort Pan’s snow-white sleeve was smeared with a clump of yellowish substance.

Although Jingjing had been wearing a small diaper, it had shifted, and the poop, being somewhat runny, had still seeped out. The term "poopy" was coined by Yixiu, and everyone found it to be quite descriptive, so it took off at Guiyuan.

Yijin and Yixiu hurriedly began to apologize, "Mr. Pan, my sister didn’t do it on purpose. We are so sorry, so sorry..."

Old Duke Liang burst into laughter again, saying, "You don’t need to apologize, this isn’t anyone else’s fault, blame him for... Why is it that only he gets pooped on..." His words trailed off as he suddenly stared off in one direction, dumbfounded.

Everyone looked over and saw Cheng Yue standing there, her eyes brimming with tears of grief and anger. She was wearing a semi-worn moon-white silk robe embroidered with floating flowers and had a simple hairdo with only a plum blossom jade pin. Despite her casual attire, it couldn’t conceal her clear, stunning beauty.

As it turned out, their conversation had drifted up to Wangjiang Building, where Cheng Yue had peeked out through a small window, just in time to see them laughing and chatting on the gallery bridge.

Cheng Yue saw among the group an extremely handsome man, with Yixiu chatting and laughing with him, even holding Jingjing, clearly up to no good. So, she couldn’t care less about her own fears, and rushed out in haste.

When Prince Consort Pan saw Cheng Yue, his eyes reddened, and he murmured, "Yueyue, Yueyue... it really is Yueyue."

Cheng Yue, ignoring Prince Consort Pan, tearfully scolded Yixiu, "Yixiu, how did mother teach you? Mother has warned you, don’t associate with extremely extremely handsome men. Yet you not only ignore mother’s words, but you also let such a man hold your sister. Do you know that such men are no good, cold-hearted and ruthless, and will someday hurt you deeply. You’ve disappointed mother so much; I am so heartbroken." Then, she rushed forward, took Jingjing from the wet nurse, and coldly said to Prince Consort Pan, "Yueyue doesn’t know you. Please stay away from my child from now on."

After saying this, she turned and walked away toward Wangjiang Building, crying.

Yixiu and Yijin quickly followed after her, calling out, "Mother, don’t be angry, mother, don’t be angry..."

Prince Consort Pan also chased after her, calling out, "Yueyue, Yueyue..."

By noon, Wu Zhi had returned to report what he had learned about the Qian family’s third wife. Putting it all together, this daughter-in-law was said to be as beautiful as a celestial being, spoke the official language, had a somewhat unclear mind, and couldn’t remember her past. Her name had been given by the Qian family. She was bought by Lady Wu for Qian Manjiang twelve years ago when she was between twelve and fifteen years old.

Combining this information with what Prince Consort Pan had known before, he believed that this daughter-in-law, Cheng Yue, Qian Manjiang’s wife, and the mother of those four children, had a ninety percent likelihood of being his daughter, Pan Yue.

The remaining ten percent of uncertainty came from the fact that he hadn’t seen her yet, and the possibility seemed too incredible. Initially, he had personally watched his daughter’s carriage swept down a cliff by a mountain torrent and landslide. The guards had found the remains of the coachman and sister in the deep mountains, as well as one piece of his daughter’s jewelry...

Knowing his daughter might still be alive overwhelmed him with excitement; he could hardly contain himself and was desperate to see her. He had made it to the doorstep when he paused again.

He couldn’t be too presumptuous; he would wait a bit longer, at least until he could find a way to meet Yueyue face to face...

He knew the Qian family’s daughter-in-law didn’t see outsiders, so he shut himself in his room, thinking of various ways to meet her. But before he had a chance to act, he saw her that evening. She was indeed his daughter – Pan Yue!

He followed Cheng Yue to Wangjiang Building and wanted to go inside, but was stopped by Yixiu. Yixiu said, "Mr. Pan, as you saw, my mother does not want to see you. You mustn’t disturb her further."
