Chapter 507 Heartbroken
Pei Shaorong deliberately showed a bitter smile, "This kind of thing is not something that can be achieved by just hard work, it depends on fate."
Pei Zhen looked at her with a little sympathy, "You don't have to be too anxious, there will always be a way."
"You are thoughtful."
"Sister, although you haven't gotten pregnant yet, you should also be careful. Concubine Xu can't get pregnant before you!"
Pei Shaorong acted like a magnanimous wife, "I can't get pregnant with the prince's child, so how can I stop the concubine from getting pregnant? Whether it's me or the concubine, the most urgent thing is to get pregnant first! And even if the concubine has a child, she will still call me mother when the child is born."
Pei Zhen looked disappointed, "Sister, you are too kind! I know you and Xu Muhua are good friends, but you can't give up your status and husband to her because of this. You are the crown princess, the prince's wife, and the future queen!"
"As the legal wife, you should be more generous, but you can't be too indulgent to the concubines, otherwise, sooner or later, they will climb over your head and act tyrannically!"
Pei Shaorong asked suddenly: "So you mean that you hope that the Princess Qin will be like this? But if the Princess Qin is like this, the baby in your belly will..."
Pei Zhen's expression almost collapsed.
Although the Princess Qin had given birth to children, and two of them. But they were all daughters. The eldest daughter is three years old this year, and the youngest daughter is only one year old.
If Pei Zhen can give birth to a son, it will not only be a happy event for the Prince Qin's Mansion, but also a happy event for the royal family. Her status will definitely rise. If the Princess Qin is unlucky and can't give birth to a son, then her son will be the eldest son. Even if he is born out of wedlock, there is a great possibility that he will inherit the palace in the future! The thing
that she is most nervous about right now should be the baby in her belly.
If the wife of Prince Qin is a powerful wife, who knows what method she will come up with to get rid of the baby in her belly!
Pei Shaorong's words made Pei Zhen not know how to continue. After a long time, he said hesitantly: "This... is just to maintain the dignity and status of the wife, not..."
"I know you care about me, but I believe Mu Hua, she won't get ahead of me."
Then he kindly advised: "Although you are my sister, I still have some things to say. You are pregnant with Prince Qin's child now, but you must also remember your status and don't be spoiled, so as not to lose the face of our Taifu Mansion!"
"After all, you have made a lot of jokes before!"
Pei Zhen almost fainted without even saying a word!
After trying several times, she managed to steady her voice and said, "Don't worry, sister. I know I was wrong and I won't do it again!" She
didn't know if Pei Shaorong's words hurt Pei Zhen's heart, which made her not in the mood to deal with Pei Shaorong here. She soon said goodbye.
Pei Shaorong couldn't figure out what she wanted to do, so she simply didn't want to think about it anymore.
If the enemy comes, we will stop him; if the water comes, we will cover it with earth. She is the Crown Princess, and Pei Zhen is just the prince's concubine. How can she overthrow her as the Crown Princess?
Xu Muhua didn't know about this yet. She was just a concubine. Of course, the people in the Eastern Palace would not report the Crown Princess's affairs to her. She also knew the limits. Her relationship with Pei Shaorong was good. They were good friends, but now it was also the relationship between the Crown Princess and the concubine.
She had to strike a good balance in their relationship and not be too presumptuous. If she took the initiative to inquire about everything, it would only make people think too much and suspect that she had ulterior motives.
Besides, everyone had their own privacy, so she should pay less attention to things that were not her concern. The most important thing was to close the door and live her own life.
When Aunt Qi heard that she was going back to her parents' home again, she was not surprised at all. She seemed to have become numb and accepted her behavior of always going back to her parents' home.
But when Xu's mother saw her coming back again, she really wanted to pick up a fire stick and drive her back!
"Why are you back again?"
Xu's mother gritted her teeth as if she was not her daughter, but someone who came to collect debts.
Xu Muhua paused and blinked, "Mom, didn't you ask me to come back?"
Xu's mother was confused, "When did I ask you to come back?"
"Didn't mom send me a message!"
Xu's mother was anxious, "I sent you a message to tell you about your elder brother to tell you that things have been arranged. You don't need to worry, let alone..."
Come back!
She came back!
Isn't this the opposite of her original intention? She sent her a message to ask her not to come back!
Xu Muhua looked innocent, "Ah, is that so? I thought mom sent me a message to hint me to come back!"
Xu's mother's eyes went dark and she had the urge to faint.
This damn child!
Xu Jiang watched the fight between the mother and daughter and laughed happily.
When Xu's mother came to her senses and saw that he was still happy and did not teach her daughter, she was furious and pinched him hard.
"Still laughing, still laughing! You were criticized last time you came back, and you are criticized again this time. You will be criticized again at the court tomorrow morning!"
Xu Muhua caught a key word, "Mother, what do you mean by criticized again? What does it mean?"
Only then did Xu's mother realize that she had let the cat out of the bag. She immediately changed the subject and said, "Forget it, I'm back now, let's go see your grandmother first!"
"Mother, don't change the subject. Did someone criticize my father the last time I came back? They said he didn't know how to discipline his daughter? He went back to his mother's house frequently after he got married?"
Xu Muhua guessed.
Xu Jiang said honestly, "It's not that they criticized my father, but they criticized the prince. They said the prince was too pampering to you..."
Xu's mother glared at him.
General Xu immediately shut up.
There is such a thing! Xu Muhua couldn't help but hold his forehead.
"Who is so free that he cares about the prince's backyard?"
Seeing this, Xu's mother simply didn't hide it and curled her lips, "It's the doctor Hu!"
"Hu?"
Isn't it the Hu family that discussed the marriage with the Geng family before?
Oh, she has the handle on their family in her hand, and he still dares to provoke her? He really thinks she is a weak woman who can't do anything, right?
Xu Muhua decided that if this Doctor Yu Shi came again, she would make their family's scandal public! Let's see if he still has the heart to meddle in other people's affairs!
"Don't worry about him. If he dares to nag again, I will come to his house and tear down the door!"
General Xu said domineeringly.
"Dad, don't be impulsive. It's not worth it for such a small matter! I can deal with him myself!"
Xu's mother said unhappily, "Okay, you two, both of you, be quiet and honest! The most important thing right now is the eldest brother's marriage. If any of you mess it up, I won't forgive you!"
Xu Muhua was in high spirits when he mentioned this, "Mom, tell me quickly, how was the eldest brother's marriage decided? Has the eldest brother met Miss Geng? Is the eldest brother satisfied?"
Xu's mother smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. "If he is not satisfied, can this marriage be successful?"
She is a very open-minded parent. She originally thought that the marriages of several children would be decided only after they were satisfied. Who would have thought that Muhua would directly let the emperor arrange the marriage.
