Mrs. Ye usually seems quite smart, but why is she so confused now?
Ye Ronger was pregnant, so even if she was worried, she shouldn't have told her daughter about this at this time.
She looked at Ye Rong'er with a bit of heartache, and comforted her softly, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Let Chu Yuan take you to the suburbs tomorrow to relax. You can stay at the farm for a few more days."
"good."
Ye Ronger nodded in agreement.
After Jiang Chuyuan and Ye Ronger went to the manor, Yu Shulan held a banquet and invited all the ladies in the capital, including Mrs. Ye.
At the banquet, Yu Shulan deliberately mentioned that Ye Ronger was pregnant. Originally, they didn't want to announce this matter so early. They usually waited for three months until the pulse condition stabilized before making any announcement.
But in order to reassure the Ye family, she had no choice but to tell them in advance.
After hearing this, all the ladies congratulated her and then asked where Ye Ronger had gone.
"Chu Yuan took Rong'er to the suburbs to relax. They won't be back for a few days."
Yu Shulan explained with a smile.
"Chu Yuan is such a rare good son-in-law, talented and handsome, and he treats his wife well. If my daughter can get such a good husband in the future, I will wake up smiling in my dreams."
One of the ladies looked at Mrs. Ye with envy.
Mrs. Ye smiled awkwardly, but she felt in her heart that being too outstanding was not good either. She wondered how many young ladies in the capital were thinking about Jiang Chuyuan.
Yu Shulan glanced at everyone and continued, "Everything else is secondary. Being devoted to one's wife is what we women pursue."
"That's right. Which of us ladies doesn't envy you, Madam Jiang, for having a husband who treats her wholeheartedly?"
A slightly plump lady said somewhat dejectedly that every family has a few troublesome people, and only Yu Shulan lives a comfortable life.
"My husband is good, but my son will do even better than his father in the future. You may not know this yet, but before Chu Yuan got married, he wrote a letter of guarantee to Rong'er, promising that he would never take a concubine and would never betray her."
"What?"
Everyone was surprised. Jiang Weizhen treated Yu Shulan well because the Jiang family was marrying up.
There are not many women in the capital who can compare to Yu Shulan.
But Jiang Chuyuan was a nobleman admired by everyone in the capital, yet he actually made such a promise to Ye Ronger before their marriage.
Everyone looked at Mrs. Ye, wanting to confirm the authenticity, and Mrs. Ye nodded.
She didn't expect Yu Shulan to suddenly bring up this matter, especially in front of everyone.
You know, after Yu Shulan said this, the whole capital knew that Jiang Chuyuan would not take a concubine, and then Jiang Chuyuan had no way out.
She also wanted to tell this matter to others and block Jiang Chuyuan's escape route.
But she was also afraid that Jiang Chuyuan had made the promise on impulse. If he regretted it and she made the matter public, there was no guarantee that the Jiang family would not take their anger out on their daughter.
Unexpectedly, Yu Shulan would say it in person. She raised her eyes and met Yu Shulan's gaze.
In just a moment, she understood what Yu Shulan meant.
She was saying this to herself to reassure herself. Thinking about how her daughter had been worried recently because of what she said, she felt ashamed.
The Jiang family cares about their daughter's feelings more than she does. She is crazy.
He put his own past on his daughter.
But her husband and Jiang Chuyuan have always been different.
As if she had figured it out all of a sudden, she said with a smile.
"That's true. It's Rong'er's blessing to marry Chu Yuan."
"What my mother-in-law said is not true." Yu Shulan retorted, "It was clearly the blessing that Chu Yuan cultivated for three lifetimes that allowed him to marry Rong'er."
"It is a blessing for our Jiang family that Rong'er can marry into our family."
Yu Shulan's words showed that their whole family recognized Ye Ronger.
Mrs. Ye was satisfied and finally put her mind at ease.
Some small families who had intended to send their daughters to the Jiang family as concubines have now given up the idea.
There was no hope for Jiang Chuyuan anymore, so he turned his attention to Jiang Dingbei.
But Jiang Dingbei is still young and it is not time for him to get married. Everyone can only feel sorry for him and hope that all the good men in the capital can be as good as Jiang Chuyuan.
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Yu Shulan didn't say anything more.
When Jiang Chuyuan and Ye Ronger came back from the suburbs, Mrs. Ye immediately went to the Jiang Mansion.
"Rong'er, your mother was possessed by a demon before and shouldn't have said those words to you. I can see that Chu Yuan is different from other men. He will definitely not let you down."
"Just focus on giving birth and try to add more children to the Jiang family. It's your blessing to marry into such a good family. You must be filial to your parents-in-law in the future."
"Mom, I know."
Jiang Chuyuan had talked a lot with Ye Ronger in the past few days, and she knew that she was overthinking it.
Besides, even if something like that really happened, it was not something she could stop. Worrying too much would only be bad for her health.
After figuring it out, Ye Ronger ate and drank every day, waiting for the birth of her child.
The entire Jiang family is also looking forward to the arrival of new life.
But before Ye Ronger gave birth, bad news reached the capital.
That night, just as Jiang Weizhen fell asleep, someone from the palace came with an imperial decree saying that the emperor had summoned him.
The emperor summoned me so late, something big must have happened.
Yu Shulan recalled that more than ten years ago, the night before Jiang Weizhen went to the battlefield, he was also suddenly summoned by the emperor.
Could it be that there was another war at the border? Her heart was beating violently and she had no desire to sleep at all.
Jiang Weizhen didn't return to the mansion until noon the next day. The first thing he said was, "We're leaving for Yonglu Pass tomorrow."
"Yonglu Pass? Is it the Yuelin Nation that's attacking?"
Jiang Weizhen nodded, "This time it's not just Yuelin Kingdom, but also Northern Wei Kingdom. They are attacking Yuan Dynasty from the west and north at the same time."
"What?"
Yu Shulan covered her mouth in shock. She never expected that these two great powers would cooperate secretly and attack the Yuan Dynasty together.
The Yuan Dynasty had just gone through a civil war and had not yet recovered. The two countries attacked together, obviously wanting to annex the Yuan Dynasty.
But the Yuelin Kingdom has always been at odds with the Northern Wei Dynasty, so why would they suddenly cooperate?
"Prince Xuanyang will lead his troops to resist Northern Wei, while I will go against Yue Lin."
Jiang Weizhen sighed, "This time the two countries are coming at us with such force that we've already lost two cities at Yonglu Pass. The Ministry of War is already counting troops. The Emperor has ordered me to lead 200,000 troops and set out early tomorrow morning."
"Then you and I..."
Before Yu Shulan could finish her words, Jiang Weizhen interrupted her, "You can't go this time. Wanwan is still so young, and Rong'er is pregnant. The family can't do without you."
"Don't worry, I will go there and come back as soon as possible, and strive to drive the barbarians out of our Great Yuan Kingdom as soon as possible."
