Chapter 78: Fire in the backyard, dog bites dog
As for Huo Jinjian waking up...his past and present lives are all different.
Now that the second house has the support of the prince, why should she be afraid of Liang Weiyuan?
Liang Shanyu's smile became even more charming, but her words were filled with unmistakable provocation: "Sister, what are you talking about? My pregnancy is naturally a great joy."
"I came today because I'm getting heavier, and I thought the mansion had just harvested ten years' worth of Poria cocos this month, so I came to ask you for some."
Poria cocos has the effect of calming the mind and soothing the nerves. It is extremely expensive, especially those that are over ten years old, which are rare and out of stock.
The reason why Liang Weiyuan bought Poria cocos was also to nourish Huo Jinjian's health.
Unexpectedly, Liang Shanyu was quick to report the news and came straight for this.
To be more precise, he came here deliberately to show off and provoke.
Zhu Shu clenched his fists in anger, took a step forward and was about to speak, but Liang Weiyuan stopped him with a look.
Liang Shanyu took one look and immediately covered her mouth with her hands, exclaiming, "No way, sister, are you reluctant to let go?"
"I'm pregnant with the Marquis's first great-grandson... I can't let my grandson in my belly suffer any injustice, right?"
Although she was covered with a handkerchief, the corners of her lips that were raised high showed her arrogance.
Liang Weiyuan was not annoyed, but a barely perceptible cold light flashed across her eyes, and she smiled lightly: "Second sister-in-law is right, the great-grandson is a blessing to the Marquis's family, so naturally we cannot neglect him."
"But young lady!" Zhu Shu said anxiously, "My son-in-law's injury still needs to be treated with Poria cocos. Ten-year-old Poria cocos is so hard to find, I don't know if I can find it again!"
"That's fine." Liang Weiyuan raised her hand to interrupt, her gaze still slowly falling on Liang Shanyu, "Send someone to the storehouse to get two taels and send them to the Second Madam."
Liang Shanyu's eyes flashed with surprise, and she immediately stood up, stroking her belly in a pretentious manner: "Oh, thank you very much, sister. It turns out that you are much more sensible now that you are in charge of the family."
She glanced at Zhu Shu, whose face was ashen, with pride and was in a good mood.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s Fuling or not, the most important thing is that she finally defeated Liang Weiyuan and forced her to give in to her!
Liang Shanyu swayed with every step, and left with a graceful smile.
It wasn't until the lilac figure disappeared outside the door that Zhu Shu could no longer help but stamp his feet. "Girl! How could you give her such a good tonic? She's clearly deliberately provoking me!"
Liang Weiyuan sat down again, a meaningful smile on her red lips: "What's the rush? Can she get the benefits of being the eldest wife so easily?"
"Go and search outside for some pictures of beautiful ladies."
Although Zhushu was confused, he acted quickly. In less than half an incense stick of time, he found Bingren and got several scrolls.
Liang Weiyuan read through them solemnly, his fingertips running across the lifelike pictures of ladies.
"Huo Siyuan is so spoiled now, how can he not have someone to serve him?"
She smiled lightly, the cinnabar mole at the end of her eyebrow faintly visible, and her eyes soon fell on a painting of a beautiful woman holding a fan.
"The Second Young Master's wife is pregnant and probably has no time to take care of her husband. As the eldest sister-in-law, I naturally have to be more considerate and arrange for someone to move in for the Second House."
Zhu Shu's eyes widened as he watched Liang Weiyuan's fingertips caress the beautiful woman with charming eyes in the album. "Miss, are you going to take a concubine for the Second Young Master? But this..."
"The second branch is already arrogant, and now she's pregnant with her first great-grandson. If we add a concubine, wouldn't it become even more prosperous?"
Mei Shu, who was standing by, couldn't help but hold his forehead when he heard this: "Only you would think about flourishing branches and leaves, but you don't even consider whether the Second Young Master's wife will cause a big fuss."
"Exactly." Liang Weiyuan smiled and tucked the slightly messy hair behind her ears. "The second branch has been so arrogant for a long time. Don't they like to show off? Then let them have a fight and fight."
The next day.
Huo Siyuan was leaning on the couch, his robe loosely open, revealing his white shoulders and chest that were still injured.
However, at this moment he didn't care about the pain of the wound at all. He narrowed his eyes and stared eagerly at Luye who was tying her hair in front of the bronze mirror. His Adam's apple rolled rapidly as he swallowed saliva.
The maid was wearing a translucent moon-white gauze dress, her waist was so thin that it could be held in one hand. The jasmine flowers inserted diagonally in her hair were stained with morning dew, which made her eyes and eyebrows look delicate and charming.
When her pink lips are slightly opened, her alluring pearly teeth are revealed. Her nose is small and delicate, just like a lotus blooming in the misty rain of Jiangnan. She is truly a beautiful girl from a small family, yet full of charm.
"Second Master, look at this hairpin...is it suitable for me?"
Lu'e turned around gracefully, raised her jade arm slightly, and her gauze dress slipped off half of her shoulders, revealing her snow-white skin glowing softly in the sunlight.
Huo Siyuan's eyes widened, and he sat up straight in an instant, knocking over the teacup on the table, and he was completely unaware that the scalding tea had spilled on his legs.
"Suitable, suitable. A beauty is so delicate, anything she wears will look good on her."
