Under the gray sky, candles lit up the room. When Shen Yuerong heard what Princess Yongan said, she turned around and looked at her.
"Come here, I'll take your pulse."
Princess Yong'an came to Shen Yuerong with her hand on her chest and explained with a frown.
"It shouldn't be a big deal. I was just too excited last night and didn't get enough rest."
Shen Yuerong placed her slender fingers on Princess Yong'an's wrist. After a moment, she looked at her meaningfully and suddenly smiled.
"It's nothing serious. I have a scented bag here. Wearing it can calm your mind. You can also get some blue and white and plum blossoms."
Princess Yong'an took the sachet handed over by Shen Yuerong, her frown relaxed a little, and she handed the remaining sachets to the two maids.
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone into the wing room, and the courtyard outside began to become lively.
Fang Cao, the female official sent by the Queen Mother to take charge, came out with a smile on her face, leading a figure.
"Princess, someone is here to add makeup to you."
Shen Yuerong had just finished painting her flower ornaments when she looked up and saw Du Wan, who was holding a baby in swaddling clothes, walking into the room.
Du Wan walked in slenderly in a pink peach blossom dress with a fake smile on her lips.
She walked up to Shen Yuerong, deliberately opened the swaddling clothes in her arms a little, and the smile on her lips was extremely fake.
"Sister, look, isn't Yulang's son handsome? I'll name him Hong'er."
"Hong'er, you should call me mother, but now that you have remarried, you are quite poor and don't even have a dowry.
Du Wan took out a silver hairpin from the swaddling clothes and placed it in front of Shen Yuerong, "Sister, this is my gift to you as a make-up."
She spoke one sentence after another, and her words were extremely disgusting, and the atmosphere around them seemed a little weird.
Shen Yuerong glanced at Du Wan with cold eyes, "Then I would like to thank Madam Du Wan."
Du Wan had a sarcastic smile on her face and deliberately moved the swaddling clothes closer.
"Sister, why don't you hug Hong'er? At least you are his mother."
Shen Yuerong glanced at the baby in the cradle. He was so fat that his eyes couldn't be seen. Although he was fat, he was very dark and had thick hair, which looked a bit strange.
She frowned slightly and was about to say something when Princess Yong'an stopped in front of Shen Yuerong with an unhappy tone.
"Please leave. No one wants to see you. Today is a happy day. I don't want to take action."
Du Wan stepped back holding the heavy child in her arms, with a more sarcastic look on her face.
"I came here with good intentions to add to the makeup, so that my sister wouldn't look too poor. After all, it's her second marriage, and a slut is getting together with another slut, so it's time to celebrate."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yuerong stood up and slapped Du Wan in the face.
"I don't need someone like you to add to my dowry. It would only bring shame. I married the prince in an open and aboveboard manner. Unlike you, even after your marriage, your household registration is still Jiangnan Skinny Horse, which means you are a slave!"
Du Wan covered her face, stared at Shen Yuerong with a vicious look, and roared angrily.
"So what if I'm a slave? I'm better than you. I'm a paraplegic. Even if I can stand up, I still can't even give birth to a child. Unlike Hong Er, who I gave birth to, he is blessed and strong. He will definitely become a mighty general in the future!!"
Qinghua was so angry that she was about to attack Du Wan, "What nonsense are you talking about? My daughter has recovered long ago."
Shen Yuerong stretched out her hand to stop Qinghua, and stood in the middle of the room in a bright red dress, dignified and bright, and said slowly.
“Sometimes eating too much is not a blessing.”
When Du Wan heard this, her face suddenly became ferocious and terrifying, and her eyes were bloodshot and accusing.
"You are probably just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them. My Hong'er is the legitimate son of the general's mansion. Don't even think about cursing Hong'er! You evil woman!!"
She looked out of control and mad, Shen Yuerong was too lazy to waste words with her and just waved her hand.
"Taohua, show the guests away!"
Taohua raised her hand and covered Du Wan's mouth with a handkerchief, then pulled her towards the outside courtyard.
At the same time, a group of noble ladies were led into the courtyard. When they passed Du Wan, a lady in a dark purple satin jacket couldn't help but look at her twice with a sneer on her face.
Fangcao, the leader, announced in a loud voice: "Princess, the ladies are here to add makeup to you."
Behind this group of noble ladies was a group of palace maids and nannies carrying gold and silver jewelry.
Shen Yuerong, wearing a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe, turned around. Before she could see clearly, the noble ladies, who were dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, surrounded her and started talking to her.
She didn't even bother to consider what these ladies had added as dowries.
"I wish the princess a happy marriage, a deep love between husband and wife, and a son soon in the future."
"The princess is truly a beauty. No wonder the prince has been in love with her for so long."
…
Several people surrounded Shen Yuerong and talked at once, and she responded with a faint smile.
"Thank you ladies for your blessings. I will never forget them."
These ladies came and left quickly, leaving their dowries behind and leaving in a hurry.
Qinghua was packing up her makeup items at one side, wondering, "There are no names on these things, how do we know who sent them? After all, they were sent by the Empress, so why are they so reckless?"
"Look girl, someone actually gave me an incense burner with spices."
Taohua took a quick look and explained, "This is the top-grade daughter fragrance. It is said to have beauty and skin care effects."
"This incense burner seems to have been given by the wife of Huo Qi, the emperor's tutor."
As soon as she finished speaking, Fangcao walked forward with a smile and lit the incense.
"Princess, this is the incense for daughters, which brings blessings and longevity, and blesses the couple with happiness. I will light it for you."
Soon, a faint fragrance wafted through the room. Qinghua couldn't help but praise and bow to express his blessings.
