They had never seen a woman who could eat three bowls of rice.

They feel guilty if they eat an extra piece of pastry or gain an extra ounce of weight.

"snort!"

"People from humble backgrounds just don't know manners!"

They finally found Jiang Shuwan's fault.

Wen was quick to kick someone when they were down, afraid that if she hesitated even a moment, Jiang Shuwan would use her clever words to get away with it.

Then, she heard Jiang Shuwan put down her chopsticks with an innocent look on her face. The girl asked anxiously, "Grandma, did your granddaughter-in-law eat too much and break the rules?"

"But my granddaughter-in-law recently read an ancient book that said ten out of a hundred women in labor die in childbirth."

"Many infants are born weak and die from illness."

"The granddaughter-in-law was frightened, so she went to ask some doctors. They all said that childbirth takes a lot of energy and strength from a woman."

"Those women who work in the fields year after year eat more and work more, are healthy, and have a lower rate of difficult childbirth than us women of officials."

"It's just because we eat less and don't do heavy work, so we're weak and frail, unlike them."

"The doctor told me to eat more, and I couldn't stop myself."

She finished speaking with a guilty expression, her head bowed, looking utterly ashamed.

However, these words shocked everyone in the room.

"Princess consort, your health is precious, how can you compare to those peasant girls?"

"Besides, the women of our official families don't do farm work. If they become bloated and fat, what kind of appearance would that be?"

The third and fourth wives both gave disapproving looks.

Pei Shushu was also anxious.

She thought Jiang Shuwan was probably going to get into trouble this time.
