Song Wanning knew that if Wu Junrou's plan failed, she would probably come up with something else. What she needed to do now, besides protecting herself, was to make sure Wu Junrou had no time to worry about her. That way, she could have more time to take care of her baby.
As for how to prevent Wu Junrou from taking time off, this is something that Song Wanning can think about carefully.
Song Wanning returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and immediately told Yin Yichen about the current incident. "When I went there today, Wu Junrou was acting pretty well. But as soon as her daughter-in-law came out, she was so anxious that she exposed her true colors. It was like she was afraid that her daughter-in-law had used this rouge. It was a bit ridiculous to think about it."
Yin Yichen was stunned when he heard this, and immediately frowned and said, "My aunt is probably thinking of other ways now. You better be careful, don't fall into her trap. When I have time in a few days, I will definitely make the men in her family suffer as well, so that they will behave themselves and stop staring at our things all day long."
Song Wanning responded and sighed slowly, "Now I'm only in charge of the inner house affairs at home. Most of the business affairs are handed over to the steward. I just check the accounts occasionally, so it's not tiring. As for you, the situation in the capital is very volatile right now. I'm worried about you at home, so you should also be careful when you are outside."
Yin Yichen put his arm around Song Wanning's shoulders and said calmly, "I understand in my heart. For you and the child, I will definitely take good care of myself."
As an official, Yin Yichen had always been a proud and arrogant person, but he was also meticulous and had never made any mistakes. Now that Song Wanning was married to him, she constantly gave him advice and suggestions, and helped to clear his name in public. As a result, Yin Yichen's reputation in the capital had improved significantly.
Yin Yichen's reputation has improved a lot, but his aunt Wu Junrou's reputation is very average. Ever since she made a big fuss about taking a concubine for Yin Yichen, and ended up taking a concubine for her own master, Wu Junrou's reputation has not been as good as before, and now she has not been able to restore her own reputation.
As Song Wanning was thinking about it, she remembered Yuan Xian who had been married to Yin Yunqing before. Yuan Xian had been married for some time now, and Yin Yunqing doted on her every day. It seemed that she was a concubine living a good life. If she gave birth to a child in the future, her status would probably be even higher.
Song Wanning thought so and immediately waved to Zhuque beside her. "I remember I got a prescription a few years ago that can help women get pregnant quickly. Go to the box under the table in the study, copy it, and send it to Yuanxian's home."
Zhuque responded and turned around to go back to work.
Yuan Xian is a person with ideas. Now that the two of them are friends rather than enemies, they can join forces to deal with Wu Junrou.
Song Wanning now had her own ideas. She looked at Yin Yichen and said slowly, "It's because things at home are not so busy that my good aunt has time to take care of our affairs. If she were busy at home, how could she have time to find fault with us?"
Yin Yichen always knew that Song Wanning was a person with her own ideas, so he just smiled faintly and said, "Madam, you can make the decision on these matters."
Song Wanning's recipe hadn't been easy to come by. Cui Xiaoxiao had relied on it to get pregnant. Now, the recipe was in Yuan Xian's hands. Fortunately, Yuan Xian wasn't one to let her down, and she got pregnant soon after.
Not long after, Mother Shen told Wu Junrou the news, which was a bolt from the blue for Wu Junrou.
"Pregnant? How could she be pregnant? Didn't she get pregnant every day with medicine that prevented her from getting pregnant? How could she still get pregnant?" Wu Junrou now clenched her handkerchief tightly.
Mother Shen was also puzzled by this. "Could it be that this little bitch has discovered me and is trying to evade me? Now that she's pregnant, the master is even less willing to leave her compound. Madam, you must think of a solution now. Otherwise, if that little bitch gives birth to a bastard, we'll have to divide the family property in the future."
Wu Junrou's expression turned vicious. She sneered at Mother Shen and said, "How can she be blessed with a child now? It's hard to say whether the child can be born or not. How can she give birth to a bastard to inherit the family fortune?"
Mother Shen agreed with Wu Junrou's words. "It's certain that this illegitimate child won't be born now. Madam, please take care of Yuan Xian's affairs first. Don't let the outside affairs be settled while the family is on fire."
Wu Junrou frowned upon hearing this. "This Yuanxian, when she first came in, I felt she was no ordinary person. Now it seems she is indeed the case. I was just negligent for a while a while ago, and she actually found the opportunity to get pregnant?"
Mother Shen, standing by, also began to worry about Wu Junrou. "Madam, the situation is critical now. Madam, you should think of a way to abort the child that Yuan Xian is carrying. Otherwise, Master's heart has been completely captivated by Yuan Xian in the courtyard these days. If Yuan Xian gives birth to another illegitimate child, who knows what Master will do to favor his concubine over his wife."
Wu Junrou felt a headache coming on, and with a slightly cold look in her eyes, she said, "Pick a time when the master is not around and go check on that Yuan Xian. She actually has such abilities now, she's quite something."
Mother Shen responded from the side, and immediately picked Yin Yunqing to go to court before going to see Yuan Xian.
Yuan Xian was now walking around the yard, holding her belly, looking quite pregnant. Wu Junrou had just entered the yard and immediately saw Yuan Xian sitting in the yard basking in the sun, looking like she was living a good life.
When Yuan Xian saw Wu Junrou, she slowly stood up and said to Wu Junrou, "Madam is here. It's rare for Madam to come here. This courtyard is small now. If Madam has anything to do, just do it."
Wu Junrou saw that there were a lot of fruits and vegetables on Yuan Xian's table, which looked like it was for guests. She asked in surprise, "You are pregnant now, why did you put so much food there?"
Yuan Xian only looked at Wu Junrou and smiled faintly, "Madam, you don't know, but the Prime Minister's wife and I hit it off right away. Now that she knows I'm pregnant, she's come to see me. Although Yuan Xian doesn't have anything valuable here, I can't be impolite."
"The Prime Minister's wife came to see you?" Wu Junrou was quite surprised. After all, this concubine was originally going to marry Yin Yichen, but now she is marrying Yin Yunqing. Not to mention, this Yuan Xian is actually quite close to Song Wanning. This matter is strange no matter how you look at it now.
Wu Junrou was thinking about it when she saw the servant outside leading Song Wanning into the yard.
