Chapter 14 The Phosphorescent Pearl
Old Madam Yang extended her hand and pulled Zhang Ling in affectionately.
“Why have you lost so much weight? Did the servants not take good care of you?” Old Madam Yang, glanced at Hu Yue, who immediately fell to her knees.
Zhang Ling smoothly retracted her hand, smiling. “Mother, don’t blame them. they’re doing a great job. I just haven’t had much of an appetite,” Her husband was accompanying his mistress as she outside, making it hard for her to rest or cat properly.

Everyone admired Zhang Ling for marrying into the right family, as the house of Marquess Yang treated her like family.
“It’s nearly time for the auspicious moment. Why hasn’t Lord Yang returned yet?” the Princess Royal asked, her brow furrowed slightly.
“I’ll need to speak with His Majesty when I return to the palace. We can’t delay Yuting’s auspicious moment on such an important day,” the Princess Royal said, looking somewhat displeased.
Old Madam Yang furrowed her brow and glanced at Nanny Jiang beside her, who discreetly left.
Before long, they spotted Yang Mingrui hurriedly returning home. Despite the cold weather, sweat dripped from his forehead.
Zhang Ling smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
Perhaps he was preoccupied with the one–month–old banquet for his mistress’s baby.
“I’m sorry for the delay. For our daughter’s one–month–old celebration, I went out of my way to find a South Sea Phosphorescent Pearl, which caused the delay, Yang Mingrui said apologetically to Zhang Ling.
“A South Sea Phosphorescent Pearl?”
“That’s a rare treasure.”
“Two years ago, His Majesty received one and gave it to the Crown Prince as a night light,” the Princess Royal exclaimed in admiration.
Yang Mingrui bowed to the Princess Royal. “It doesn’t compare to His Majesty’s.”
The South Sea was thousands of miles away from the Capital, and the phosphorescent pearls were extremely precious because they could only be found in deep seas, making them rare.
“Bring out Miss Yang Zhang Ling gestured.
Her resentment towards Yang Mingrui lessened slightly.
Before long, Xu Jia brought out Yang Yuting.
The Princess Royal was somewhat surprised and reached out to take the baby from Xu Jia’s hand.

The Princess Royal was overjoyed.
Having been childless for many years, seeing Yang Yuting brought her immense joy.
She was the daughter she had longed for.
“Here, Yuting. I got you a phosphorescent pearl. Do you like it?” Yang Mingrui smiled as he handed over the pearl, which the little one barely managed to grasp with both hands.
Yang Yuting looked at the phosphorescent pearl intently.
A phosphorescent pearl!
He gave Yang Xinru a headdress made of twelve phosphorescent pearls and gave me a leftover piece?
Humph, I can’t be bothered with things others don’t want.
Zhang Ling heard this thought, and her smile faltered.
The hope that had risen in her heart was extinguished once again!
Is my daughter only worthy of things others don’t want?!
Furious, Zhang Ling felt a sharp pain in her chest, and every breath she took felt like needles pricking her.
Yang Yuting grinned at the Princess Royal and then tossed the phosphorescent pearl with both hands…
With a thud, the phosphorescent pearl fell to the
ground.
Yang Mingrui’s face turned pale and then red, as if he had been slapped.
