Chapter 976
A while later, when Huo Zhao woke up, he was startled by the almost burning gaze on the bedside.
Zhong Jie and Madam Chen sat on the edge of the bed, staring at her intently.
Huo Zhao blinked: "Mother, Mother, what's going on...?"
She was about to get up when Zhong Jie pressed her down, saying, "Lie down! This child, so grown up, still can't take care of herself!"
Seeing that Huo Zhao still looked puzzled, Madam Chen said, "You yourself are more than a month pregnant, don't you know that?"
"I'm pregnant?" Huo Zhao suddenly realized why he had been so sleepy lately.
She sighed, "I really didn't know. I thought it was due to the weather."
The saying goes, "Spring brings drowsiness, autumn brings fatigue, winter brings hibernation, and summer brings naps." Aren't all four seasons the time for sleeping?
“It’s good that we know now, it’s not too late,” Zhong Jie said. “Zi Rong said that you will be raised in the Prince’s Mansion during this pregnancy. Don’t worry, your mother and I will definitely take good care of you!”
Zhong Jie has two regrets in her heart that she can never let go of.
First, she couldn't be there to watch Huo Zhao grow up; second, she couldn't take care of Huo Zhao personally when she was pregnant.
The first regret is irreparable, but the opportunity to make up for the second regret has arrived.
Thinking of this, Zhong Jie became even more excited: "Go and inform everyone in the Prince's mansion that the Princess is pregnant, and from now on, we must be extra careful!"
Madam Chen quickly stopped her: "No, no, Zhao Zhao's pregnancy isn't stable yet. We can't let too many people know. If the whole mansion finds out, it would be so easy for them to do something!"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Jie finally realized what was happening.
Thankfully, the water mother didn't move.
Seeing that the two were even more nervous than she was, Huo Zhao said helplessly, "I'm fine. Besides, this isn't my first pregnancy. I know what I need to be careful about and I'll take care of myself."
“You can take care of yourself, but a person’s energy is always limited. You can’t take care of everything,” Mrs. Chen tucked her in. “With us here this time, you can worry less and focus on getting better.”
The two women were both very nervous, so Huo Zhao knew that there was no point in saying anything, and could only nod and let them do as they pleased.
"By the way, where's Zirong?"
“If you want to stay at the Prince’s residence to rest during your pregnancy, the Marquis’s residence probably won’t be happy about it. He went back there in person.”
Zhong Jie scoffed: "If you ask me, your father-in-law is really incompetent, but he's incredibly controlling. What does it matter to him where you are pregnant? Do you think he'll personally take care of you while you're pregnant at the Marquis's residence?"
Doing absolutely nothing, yet talking a lot, so annoying!
Unfortunately, that person was Shen Rang's biological father. The Prince's Mansion had to consider Shen Rang's reputation and couldn't make things too ugly, so they could only endure it.
Fortunately, Shen Rang is a reliable person. He went to the Marquis's residence in person, but it remains to be seen whether he can resolve this mess.
Huo Zhao pursed his lips and remained silent.
She was also extremely dissatisfied with Shen Jun.
——
Meanwhile, at the Marquis's residence.
Shen Jun had just lost his temper, and his chest was still heaving violently.
The room was a mess, with porcelain shards scattered all over the floor and even the tables and chairs moved, but Zheng and Shen Rang seemed not to notice.
After things quieted down, Shen Rang continued, "Although my father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't say it, I think they probably want Zhaozhao to stay in the Prince's Mansion, especially my mother-in-law."
Madam Zheng nodded: "That's only right. The Huo family has come all this way, so they should spend more time with the princess, especially on such an important occasion."
"What do you mean by 'should be'? A married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl, that's what should be done! Huo Zhao is already a member of our Shen family. It's one thing for her to stay at the Prince's mansion and not come back, but she's even taking care of her pregnancy at her parents' home. What kind of behavior is this?!"
Shen Jun was furious.
