What Biyu said made sense. A while ago, the concubine who was pregnant in the mansion was plotted by Mo Qinglian and was found in the bushes in the backyard with the guards. Chu Youchen took away her status as concubine and sold her out that day, regardless of the fact that she was about to give birth.
Mo Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are the only one who is pregnant in the whole backyard now, so you don't have to be angry with that foreign woman! Give birth to the little prince safely, this is your most important thing." Biyu said again.
Ever since Baozhu died, Biyu has become the most reliable person around Mo Qinglian. In Prince Mu's Mansion, the two of them rely on each other and help each other.
King Mu came to Mo Qinglian on the first and fifteenth days of every lunar month, and Biyu would help him go to bed. Mo Qinglian also promised that after she gave birth to a little prince, she would let Biyu get pregnant with a boy or a girl, and then find a wife for her.
Her tight stomach finally relaxed, and Mo Qinglian let out a long sigh of relief, saying, "Go to Manchun Courtyard again and learn from it. If you can get the prince to stay a few more nights, I will reward you handsomely!"
"Yes!" Biyu nodded in response.

After the three-day parade, Su Bei not only gained the reputation of the Goddess of Flowers, but the business of her store also improved.
Mu Hui suddenly came to her senses and proposed to exchange stores with Su Bei, saying that a store selling hairy monkeys didn't need to be that big. Su Bei deliberately teased her whether Chu Youyang was going to raise the rent, and Mu Hui blushed and said:
"Ling Zi lobbied that the store was too big, with people coming and going all day long, and he couldn't just be a monkey at ease."
The smell of love is already quite obvious.
But Mu Hui refused to admit it, maybe because she had never pursued a man? Su Bei also felt that Ling Ziyou seemed to have a simple employer-employee relationship with Mu Hui, and it didn't seem like he had that intention.
All right, her store is no longer big enough anyway, so it would be better to change it.
There is dining on the first floor and private rooms on the second floor. The kitchen is more than twice as large and the backyard is also bigger.
Recruit another group of apprentices and then open branches in other places.
Su Bei patted Yu Chunhe on the shoulder and said, "When we open a new store, you can go there. I'll give you shares then, and you can choose a good husband in the future!"
Yu Chunhe touched her belly uncomfortably and said with her head down: "I am not that lucky. I plan to live my life on my own..."
Su Bei looked at her belly in astonishment. Her clothes were loose and he had not noticed that her belly was actually a little round.
"Did you eat too many pastries?" Su Bei teased with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Yu Chunhe knelt down and said hurriedly: "Miss, I definitely didn't steal the cakes in the store!"
"Hurry up and get up!" Su Bei held his forehead with his hand, "I didn't say you were cheating. Besides, didn't I also say you could eat it?"
Yu Chunhe seemed to be frightened, and was too terrified to speak.
Su Bei had no choice but to comfort her again: "Okay, okay, I was just joking with you, I won't say it again next time! I won't say it again!"
Yu Chunhe burst into tears and grabbed Su Bei's hand, "It's not your fault! To be honest, my previous mistress was jealous and framed me for stealing things from the mansion, and then sold me out. I came to you and found out that I was pregnant. I wanted to buy abortion pills, but the medicine was already boiled and I couldn't drink it. This is a living child!"
Su Bei realized belatedly that she was not fat, but pregnant...
"How many months?" Su Bei felt a little guilty. She knew nothing, but she let a pregnant woman work so hard for her store.
"It's been more than five months!" Yu Chunhe said, and was about to kneel again, "Girl, I can still work. I can work until the birth, and I don't have to sit in confinement. I will never interfere with your business..."
"Don't!" Su Bei panicked, "Just sit down and talk to me! I'm not some stingy old landlord, how can I exploit you like that? From today on, you only need to work half a day, and I'll pick two smart ones from the cooks and train them..."
Before she finished her words, Yu Chunhe's face turned pale, "Girl! Don't you want me anymore? If you are worried about wasting time, I will give the baby away after I give birth to it..."
"Stop it now!" Su Bei held his forehead with his hand again, "I don't want to give up on you, it's just that you've been through a lot during your pregnancy, and I want you to have a rest. Besides, I want to open a few branches in the future, and I need you to help me recruit some store managers!"
Yu Chunhe didn't understand. What was so hard about being pregnant? All slave women worked until they gave birth. How could they have a confinement period after giving birth? Unless she could be promoted from a maid to a concubine. Her treatment was better than those concubines and wives!
Meeting Su Bei is truly the greatest blessing in her life!
"Chun He will work like a slave for you, even if it means death!" She said, and was about to kneel again.
Su Bei fled in panic, "Don't kneel, don't kneel! Weren't we just fine before? How come I'm the goddess of flowers and you guys have to bow to me when you see me? I feel so awkward!"
She naturally didn't know that on the one hand it was because of the Goddess of Flowers, and on the other hand it was because she had become Chu Younan's cousin!
So everyone already knows that Miss Abei will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future, and she will definitely be the Princess Su!
Su Bei hasn't returned to Prince Su's Mansion for three days.
Even though that guy came to stick to her every day, she still wanted to go back and take a look. It felt like home there.
While Chu Younan was away, she changed into a short-sleeved shirt and shorts and ran around the palace.
As long as life continues, movement will never stop!
The good figure that everyone envies cannot be achieved by just eating and sleeping.
But she was only halfway through her run when she was suddenly shocked.
The original location of the Peony Pavilion had turned into a ruin at some point. Many people were cleaning it up, and it looked like they were going to build a new building.
Brother Nannan, you are too generous, aren't you? You want to rip off such a nice yard?
She was just stunned when she heard Chu Younan's voice behind her: "This yard is an eyesore. I want to build a garden. I won't dig a lake inside. I will plant flowers and plants and build a pavilion. You can bring your children to play here in the future..."
Su Bei rolled his eyes at him and said, "Children? Who are you going to have a bunch of? I'm not as generous as the women here who keep other people's children by my side. I tell you, I'm very petty. I won't care about the children you have with other women!"
Chu Younan pinched her round little face, pursed his lips and smiled softly, "With you! It would be best if we get married by the end of this year, so that we can have a baby by the end of next year, and the year after next..."
Su Bei looked at him in horror, "You, you, you...you're dreaming...won't I become an old sow if I keep giving birth like this?"
Chu Younan raised the corners of his lips, with an evil look in his eyes, "There's no rush for this. Since you're back, let's go to the hot springs together today?"
