Chapter 413: Being ‘Ignored’

Translator: Vesper

Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao sleeping soundly, there was a doting smile on his face.

It was the last day of the new year, he naturally was unable to sleep in, he got up and practiced his martial arts outside before heading over to find Grandmother Qin to discuss today’s matters.

He had previously arranged for people to deliver the New Year gifts, there was no need to be bothered about it. It was also not Grandmother Qin’s first time handling the New Year, she had straightened out what needed to be done.

Qiao Tian Chang was relieved seeing Grandmother Qin arranging everything properly, he had Lei An and the others to post up the couplets.

As for Qiao Tian Chang, he had entered the kitchen, he planned to personally cook for Ning Meng Yao.

It was already very late when Ning Meng Yao woke up, she sat on the bed in a daze for a long time before recalling that it was still the new year.

She patted her head while feeling vexed, how could she forget such an important matter?

She put on her clothes and walked out the door, she realized everyone was getting busy, even Nangong Yan was affected by the atmosphere, he was helping out in whatever he could.

Such a scene caused Ning Meng Yao to feel embarrassed.

”Yao’er, you’re awake. Hurry over and eat something,” Nangong Yan saw Ning Meng Yao and greeted her as he said to her in a solemn manner.

Ning Meng Yao heard Nangong Yan’s words, she ate as she nodded her head, answering a few questions from time to time.

Qiao Tian Chang had finished cleaning up the kitchen, he saw Ning Meng Yao wearing a thick layer of clothes as she chatted with Nangong Yan.

He walked over and touched her face: “Are you feeling cold?”

”I’m not cold, it’s very warm,” Ning Meng Yao patted his hand, her face was warm, there wasn’t the slightest trace of coldness.

Qiao Tian Chang nodded: “That’s good.”

After talking to Ning Meng Yao for a short while, Qiao Tian Chang headed back to the kitchen, seeing him act that way, Ning Meng Yao felt she was the most blessed person in the world.

Although he had already seen such a scene multiple times, Nangong Yan would feel that his son-in-law really placed his daughter in his heart.

”I am relieved to see you two like this.”

”Father, nothing will happen to mother. I’ll be going to the kitchen to have a look.” Ning Meng Yao felt a little embarrassed with Nangong Yan’s stare, she got up and headed towards the kitchen.

Nangong Yan found it funny and shook his head.

Upon entering the kitchen, Ning Meng Yao saw Qiao Tian Chang preparing some dessert in a serious manner, it was everything she loved to eat, Grandmother Qin was standing by the side preparing the ingredients.

Grandmother Qin hurriedly reached out and chased her away when she saw Ning Meng Yao enter: “Young miss, it’s crowded in here, why are you here?”

Ning Meng Yao reached out and touched her nose, she then smiled awkwardly: “I came in to see if there’s anything I could help.

Grandmother Qin stared at her: “Young master and I are here, there’s no need for you to help, hurry and get out,” Grandmother Qin waved her hand and began chasing her away.

Ning Meng Yao looked resentfully at Grandmother Qin: “Granny, I obviously don’t look pregnant right now, why can’t I remain here?” Pregnant ladies of that era still needed to work, even in the past, pregnant women still went to work, all the way until they were one or two months away from giving birth before resting. Why was it that when it came to her, she had become a fragile glass doll?

”No way,” Grandmother Qin had a stern expression.

Ning Meng Yao turned her head and looked at Qiao Tian Chang: “Tian Chang......” Qiao Tian Chang could not resist her pitiful looks, he could only speak up.

”Granny, it’s alright. Yao Yao can just watch from here, I won’t let her cook.”

Grandmother Qin looked at Qiao Tian Chang, she then lowered her head and looked at Ning Meng Yao acting innocently, she nodded her head in a helpless manner: “Fine then, but young miss, you can only sit and watch, you cannot cook.”

”Alright.”

Although she had said so, Ning Meng Yao would still help out when help was needed, such as picking vegetables, cutting vegetables and so on. Grandmother Qin wanted to reprimand her but was cut off by her.

Cutting and picking vegetables was not taxing.

Grandmother Qin was no longer bothered after seeing her being so resolute, she would occasionally turn her head to look at her and would be at ease after seeing that everything was fine.

Ning Meng Yao was still worried that Grandmother Qin would not agree to it, she was feeling really happy seeing her conceding right now.

Qiao Tian Chang seeing her elated look reached out and pressed on her forehead, but he did not blame her.
