Chapter 335 Like a jealous wife!
Chapter 335 Like a jealous wife!
After he left, Mu Wanrong's maid, Xiao Lingzai, carefully closed the door and window, and came to Mu Wanrong's side. Her tone could not hide her joy, "Concubine, did you hear that? The doctor said that you have fetal force. You are really pregnant!"
Mu Wanrong put her hand on her lower abdomen. She was happy at first, and then slapped Xiao Ling in disgust, "You bitch, you're such a bastard, what's there to be happy about?"
Her eyes were dark and gloomy, "I just hope that this is a boy who can help me."
Xiao Ling was so aggrieved that she covered her face and knelt on the ground, not daring to answer casually. She only said: "The princess mentioned the adulterer today. Did she know something?"
Mu Wanrong recalled the scene during the day, and her heart was full of doubts. Her eyes radiated a fierce light, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Whether Shen Ruzhou knows it or not, her life cannot be spared."
Xiao Ling was so frightened by her appearance that she shivered. Then she remembered one more thing. She took out the letter from Mu Wanqing from her arms and handed it over carefully.
Mu Wanrong opened it and looked at it at a glance, her expression suddenly changed.
Counting the days, it will be my grandmother’s sixtieth birthday soon.Shen Ruzhou asked Miaodong to place a table in the yard and wrote the gift list with interest.
"Grandma's birthday was not celebrated last year. This year my father and brother are back safely. The family must have a good celebration for grandma."
Shen Ruzhou picked up the pen, and the fine Liangzhou ink exuded a faint fragrance on the tip of her pen. She couldn't think of anything to give as a gift.
Miao Dong joked: "The old lady loves the young lady the most. She will be happy if the young lady gives her anything."
"Just your sweet mouth."
Shen Ruzhou smiled delicately and hit her head with a pen. As if she thought of something, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Go and get the gift list that the Prince Regent sent last time. There are many precious medicinal materials in it. I will pick some and send them over, just for my grandmother to take care of her body."
Miaodong clapped her hands and applauded, "Yes, miss, the regent gave me a lot of good things last time. They are all things that you may not be able to buy even if you have money on the market. Miss, this is a birthday gift, it must be both practical and honorable."
As soon as Miao Dong went in to look for the gift list, Xiao Chenyan pushed the door in with a gloomy expression.
His eyes fell on Shen Ruzhou, and he saw that she had changed into a thin silk red dress, with a fitted cut and smooth lines, and a colorful rope to tie her waist, which made her even more slender and alluring, with a graceful figure. .
Seeing Xiao Chenyan walk in, Shen Ruzhou just raised his eyelids and looked at him, then continued to focus on writing the gift list for his grandmother's birthday on the red gilded rice paper, as if he didn't see him at all.
Xiao Chenyan stood directly in front of her, his eyes full of annoyance, "Wanrong almost had a miscarriage because of you, but you are still in the mood to write and draw here!"
Shen Ruzhou put down his pen, carefully blew the ink on it, and replied without raising his head: "It will be my grandmother's birthday in a few days. The old man is in good health, and the family is gathered together. Such family happiness, I think It’s hard even if it’s not good!”
Xiao Chenyan took a look at the items on the gift list. Most of them were sent by Lu Huaining during the last Beixiu Banquet.
"How can the birthday gift sent by Prince Wucheng's Palace be from the Beixiu Banquet? If people find out, why don't they laugh at the fact that Prince Wucheng's Palace has nothing to offer."
He raised his hand and snapped the gift list written by Shen Ruzhou, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "Since you have married me, your grandmother is my grandmother, and I will ask someone to prepare expensive gifts. Forget it."
"unnecessary!"
Shen Ruzhou took the gift list directly from under his hand. Fortunately, the writing was not spent. She put the gift list away and declined Xiao Chenyan's "kindness".
"The gift I gave to my grandmother has nothing to do with you. You'd better not show up on the day of the birthday party, so as not to spoil the fun."
"Do you think this king is as ignorant of rules and etiquette as you? I will definitely attend when the time comes and give you the courtesy of a princess. Don't be ignorant!"
The temperature in Xiao Chenyan's eyes rose, and little bits of fire were faintly visible.What on earth was this woman thinking?It's not enough for him to do this. When will she get Qiao?
"I don't understand the rules anymore, Xiao Chenyan, don't be so arrogant here. You are just trying to use this opportunity to show favor to the Shen family and win over the Shen family."
Xiao Chenyan's eyes flashed with annoyance, "I never disdain to rely on nepotism. The reason why I want to go is because she is your grandmother!"
Xiao Chenyan gritted his teeth, "This matter is settled! No matter how many wrong things you have done, I don't care about you. Now you don't even let me go to celebrate your birthday. Isn't it rude?"
"What did I do wrong?!"
"You bullied the concubine and almost killed the fetus in her belly. Isn't this wrong? Shen Ruzhou, you have become so vicious that you don't even care about an innocent life?!"
Shen Ruzhou was speechless for a while, "When the concubine is pregnant, she should stay in her own room to raise the fetus. If she insists on scolding me in front of me, she brought it on herself."
"As a mother, she doesn't care about the life and death of the fetus in her belly, but you make me care? Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Strong words! Wanrong came over to persuade me for your own good. Not only did you not appreciate it, you also slandered her, which made her faint."
Thinking of Mu Wanrong's pale and weak look just now, a trace of pity flashed in Xiao Chenyan's eyes.
"Shen Ruzhou, just now Wanrong asked herself to leave the house. She is such a gentle and kind person, but you always target her and embarrass her. You are like a jealous woman!"
Xiao Chenyan's face was as dark as ink. He suppressed his anger, and his eyes were full of warning, as if he was looking at a piece of rotten wood.
"This is for your own good. Wanrong is pregnant with my first child. As the princess, you should take good care of their mother and child. This will not only improve your good reputation, but also the people in the palace will treat you favorably. ."
"If something happens to the child, your father and mother will not let you go. Then even if I want to protect you, I won't be able to!"
Xiao Chenyan thought he had made the stakes clear, but he didn't know that this set of female virtues would fall into Shen Ruzhou's ears, and he would only feel it was noisy.
She put away the gift list, folded it carefully and put it into the wooden box. The corners of her mouth were raised, and her eyes were full of ridicule, "Protect me? When have you ever protected me? I have always faced those conspiracies, insults and frame-ups alone. Find a way to escape intact."
Since Xiao Chenyan entered the house, he has been tolerant to Shen Ruzhou again and again. She has no rules and didn't even serve him a cup of tea. He is not angry. She refused him to go to his grandmother's birthday banquet, but he is not angry. She speaks and behaves impeccably and curses the concubine. , he didn’t even say a harsh word!
What else does Shen Ruzhou want?
"You have no sense of propriety in what you say or do, and you offend everyone everywhere, including your mother, concubine, and eldest princess. How many times have I helped you?"
His eyes were about to burst into flames, "Besides, although there were some misunderstandings, they were all solved later, and you had nothing to lose. Why do you keep bringing them up?"
