Shen Ruoyan thought that even if she could give birth again, she would not be able to get the favor of Madam Lu.
The Shen family behind her is a source of both interest and fear.
Old Madam Lu did not want a prince who was related to the Shen family. She couldn't control him, so she simply didn't want him.
"A frog in a well is nothing more than that."
Shen Ruoyan showed a sarcastic smile. If it were her, after Lu Yan became mute, she would definitely be doubly nice to him, and let Shen Ruoyan take charge of the power in this mansion, so that everyone in the Shen family could see how much their Lu family valued the Shen family's legitimate daughter!
The Shen family has a good reputation. If the Changning Marquisate does everything properly, then it will be able to tie up this huge Shen family tightly without any unnecessary means.
Madam Lu could only see the constraints on her, but could not see the bright future - how foolish she was!
The original owner was also stupid. Because she didn't want to be disliked by Mrs. Lu, she automatically kept a distance from the Shen family. After being married for so long, it can be said that she almost ignored them, which once made the Shen family very sad.
Fortunately, after she came here, she wrote a letter every month, month after month, and whenever she had the chance, she would ask someone to bring this and that to the Shen family.
They are not all valuable items, but they are a token of thought.
Even if you are relatives, you should keep in touch with each other, otherwise the distance between you will only become farther and farther.
Even if they care about each other, there will still be an unnecessary layer of barriers. It's not something that requires much thought, so why bother?
After learning about Madam Lu's thoughts, Shen Ruoyan had to adjust her countermeasures in time. It is never a bad thing to plan ahead.
She finally got a chance to start over, and she had to take every step steadily to be worthy of the precious opportunity God gave her!
"Sir, my stomach hurts so much, please let me go back!"
"Sir, I'm not an assassin! I'm just an honest farmer. Please let me go!"
"grown ups!"
"grown ups!"
When Zhu Hong arrived, the place erupted in an uproar. The line of heavily pregnant women stretched out in a long line, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Pregnant women can easily feel uncomfortable after a long battle. There were too many people here, people squeezed together, and stomachs squeezed together. When she walked over, she saw a pregnant woman with difficulty breathing, being carried out by four people, her face pale!
"Auntie, don't panic, everything will be fine."
Chunxi was also frightened by the situation at the scene, but she was Shen Ruoyan's personal maid, and she came here specifically to accompany Zhuhong to ensure that she was safe.
So no matter how shocked she was in her heart, she couldn't show even a trace of it on her face!
"The doctor is outside. Any situation can be discovered in time. Don't worry, my aunt. The servants selected by the madam all know martial arts. If any situation occurs, they will definitely protect you and get out of it safely." Chunxi's tone was neither slow nor hurried, which slowly calmed Zhuhong's mood.
She is not actually an impatient person, but for some reason, since she came here, she has become extremely sensitive.
Especially listening to the hysterical screams of those pregnant women, I felt as if I could empathize with them, and even my stomach ached slightly.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. If I were the lady, I would definitely not lose my composure like this." Zhuhong sighed secretly and silently placed her hand on her belly, as if doing so would make her feel more secure.
Chunxi didn't say anything, just smiled as a response.
She was the lady's maid, and she would not say a single extra word to anyone, no matter who it was.
There were too many pregnant women present, as well as ordinary women and women from officials' families, all crowded together.
Those who knew about it were more calm. But those who only had a limited understanding, upon seeing this scene, were already paralyzed with fear. The longer they waited, the more anxious and fearful they became. If this continued, something bad would happen sooner or later!
But Cao An couldn't care less about all these things. He couldn't handle it all by himself, so he had assigned more people to check one by one before doing this.
"The face must be carefully examined. Anyone with scars or moles must be apprehended. The hands must also be closely watched. If the skin on the hands doesn't match the face, arrest them on the spot!"
Cao An felt that since Mrs. Wen had been able to escape capture for so many days, there must be someone helping her.
Not only that, she must have been in disguise.
But no matter whether it is a human skin mask or something else, this time, he will strip her clean!
Cao An was personally watching here, and his subordinates did not dare to be lazy. Everyone checked very carefully, which also resulted in the speed becoming slower and slower.
"Chun Xi, I feel a little dizzy. I want to sit down and relax."
Zhu Hong covered her forehead, feeling dizzy and having trouble breathing. There were too many people here, chattering, and every word from each person gave her a splitting headache!
In fact, she didn't want to cause trouble to others, for fear that everyone would think she was just a concubine and became pretentious because she was pregnant.
But she really couldn't hold on any longer...
"Quick! Help the aunt to the side. Liu'an, come here and help hold on." Seeing that something was wrong, Chunxi hurriedly helped Zhuhong to the side with the other maids, leaving one maid to continue queuing in the team.
Once you come in, you are not allowed to bring anything with you, so there are no stools to be found here.
Chunxi had no choice but to let Liu'an kneel on the ground first, and let Zhuhong sit on him slowly.
"Auntie, are you feeling better?" Chun Xi was fanning her. There were too many people here, and it was stuffy and hot. Not to mention that Auntie was pregnant, ordinary people like them felt uncomfortable.
When will this inspection be completed?
After Zhu Hong sat down, her breathing slowly returned to normal. Just now, she really thought that she was going to die here!
"Thank you all for your hard work. I'm feeling better now." As she said this, she was about to get up from Liu'an's body. Before entering the mansion, Zhuhong was also a servant, and she knew how hard and difficult it was.
So even if she became the master, she was unwilling to humiliate others.
She felt very uncomfortable sitting on Liu'an's body.
Chun Xi stopped her and advised, "Auntie, you should rest for a while. Since things are already like this, you might as well take care of your health."
She noticed Zhuhong's discomfort and thought to herself, although they were both concubines, Zhuhong didn't have that domineering air of a powerful villain. Instead, she was always cautious and careful, even to the servants, she was polite and never treated them harshly.
No wonder the servants in the mansion often compared her with Fang Rou - everyone liked Zhuhong more.
Liu'an, who was lying on the ground, heard this and said with a smile: "Auntie, you can rest. I have eaten my fill and can hold on!"
This made everyone laugh and also eased the tense atmosphere a little.
But they didn't expect that before they could even put away their smiles, the crowd suddenly started to become chaotic!
