The next morning, Su Qingyu got up early as usual and prepared to go to Qingyuanju to pay her respects.
Pearl lifted the curtain and said with a smile, "Madam, why are you here so early? When the Third Master left, he specifically instructed that Madam was tired yesterday and didn't need to go and pay her respects."
Su Qingyu said, "Third Master does care about me, but visiting my parents every morning and evening is what a junior should do."
In fact, she couldn't sleep, probably because the knife that had been hanging over her head was finally removed. When she opened her eyes today, she felt refreshed.
After her rebirth, she had been thinking about this matter since the moment she saw Mr. Zhou. Finally, her efforts paid off and she finally solved the problem.
Now, the only enemy left from her previous life was Shen Zhao. She was not in a hurry, waiting for the right opportunity to strike him a fatal blow.
Feicui brought her a casual jacket and skirt. It wasn't very luxurious, but it was comfortable.
Su Qingyu suddenly slapped her forehead, "Isn't it sixteen today? I agreed to go to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion with my mother and Shen Yue to see the Zhao family's baby."
Zhao Rui's wife, Yan, gave birth to a son a few years ago, and Old Lady Shen loved him very much. She went to see him twice before the New Year, but she was busy during the first month of the lunar year and hadn't been able to go back yet.
She had said a few days ago that she wanted Su Qingyu and Shen Yue to accompany her to visit the Zhao family on the 16th day of the first lunar month.
Feicui hurriedly said, "Then go change your clothes."
This outfit is fine for home, but it seems a bit tacky when going out. And it's the first month of the year, so no matter whose house you're visiting, you have to dress festively. Especially if there are elderly people at home, it wouldn't look festive or auspicious if the younger generation wore too plain clothes during the New Year.
Feicui also brought a pomegranate red, gold-threaded, densely woven jacket and skirt that Su Shunci had sent her before the Lunar New Year. She said it was made especially for Sister Su, to wear during the Lunar New Year. She had sent six sets, all of them festive and luxurious.
When she was changing Su Qingyu's clothes, Feicui seemed to be hesitant to speak. She seemed to want to say something but was afraid to.
Su Qingyu had been with her for several years and could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her.
"What's wrong? You have something to tell me?"
Feicui was adjusting the brocade belt around Su Qingyu's waist when she heard this and whispered, "The old lady is worried about the young master of the Zhao family. Could it be that she is worried that Madam has been silent?"
Seeing Su Qingyu's puzzled expression, he continued, "Has Madam asked Mr. Zhou if he should take some more medicine to recuperate?"
"Madam has been married for eight months, and she and the Third Master...it shouldn't have been so long without any movement."
Su Qingyu couldn't help laughing. She knew that if there was no news about the marriage for a few months, countless people would stare at her and Shen Zhixiu.
Some of them were kind to her and worried about her health, while others were simply determined to find a concubine for Shen Zhixiu.
Fortunately, the old lady was sensible and didn't say anything casually.
She was somewhat relieved at this moment, relieved that Shen Zhixiu had used the medicine so that they could have a child later.
Otherwise, in these eight months, there were so many things to worry about, and even a few dangerous situations. If she really was pregnant, she was afraid she would not be able to cope with it.
This was fine. After those people were dealt with, she could then give birth to their child peacefully. The days ahead would be peaceful.
She comforted Feicui and said that having children depends on fate and there is no need to rush.
When Su Qingyu arrived at Qingyuan Residence, the old lady and Shen Yue were packing things to bring to the child. Shen Yue went out to see the lanterns yesterday and bought a rattle and a rabbit lantern.
Although it is not very expensive, the workmanship is fine and it looks good.
She was very excited and wanted to take it to the Zhao family's newborn baby.
The old lady did not stop her and let Shen Yue prepare. She smiled and said, "If you send these things over, I'm afraid that the little baby won't see them and the older ones will snatch them away."
Shen Yue said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter who plays, I've already played with it, so it won't be a waste if I give it to them."
Su Qingyu also picked up the rattle and shook it, saying, "This thing is really well made. Not to mention the child, even I find it fascinating."
Shen Yue playfully joked, "Don't be jealous, Aunt San. When you give me a little brother, I'll buy him ten and we'll take turns rocking them."
The old lady reached out and tapped Shen Yue's forehead. "Buy ten? Aren't you afraid of shocking the child?"
Shen Yuejiao laughed twice, took the old lady's arm and started shaking, "Grandma is partial to me. My younger brother hasn't even been born yet, but she's already partial to him."
Knowing that Shen Yue was joking, Su Qingyu also joked to make the old lady happy: "When Li Yunzhou returns to the court, you two will also get married."
"Maybe you can give your grandmother a great-grandson first."
As he spoke, he exchanged glances with Shen Yue, both of them able to see the deep meaning in each other's eyes. It was as if they were comforting each other, believing that Li Yunzhou would surely return to Beijing in triumph.
Li Chaoyun, who had come to pay his respects, stood outside the door, a smile on his lips. Was Shen Yue waiting to marry Li Yunzhou? Then wait.
It is unknown whether what comes back is a person or a corpse.
If she insists on marrying into the Li family, it would be a good opportunity for her to come in and serve her mother.
Li Chaoyun's expression disappeared in an instant, and he had returned to normal when he went in.
After entering the room, she first greeted the old lady and Su Qingyu, and then stood up to greet her sister-in-law.
After sitting down again, Li Chaoyun realized that they were going to the Zhao family to see the child. Looking at the children's things on the small couch, Li Chaoyun felt a little uncomfortable. If her child was still there, it would be born in a few months.
Shen Zhiheng did not attend court today, but he brought his eldest son, the third young master Shen Xi, and the fifth young master Shen Cheng to pay his respects.
The third young master, Shen Xi, was sixteen years old and still studying at the academy, leaving after the first month of the lunar year. The fifth young master, Shen Cheng, was nine years old and had hired a teacher at the mansion.
