Of course, Han Jiaojiao had just given birth and suffered a difficult labor. Even if she had "forgotten the pain" and wanted to have another daughter, Zhao Qingyun and Gu Qingcheng would not agree.
Aunt Zhao was almost wiping her tears, holding Han Jiaojiao's hand, and begging her in every possible way.
Han Jiaojiao: …Giving birth is indeed very painful and dangerous, but with my mother-in-law’s love and my husband’s reliability, I’m not that resistant to giving birth!
Besides, her mother-in-law is so beautiful. Han Jiaojiao always feels that she would be at a loss if she doesn’t give birth to a granddaughter who looks like her.
Zhao Qingyun: ...Ha! Woman!
Although Zhao Qingyun always felt like a gift, he was still very happy that the relationship between his wife and mother was so harmonious.
Only when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along well, the husband and wife can live in harmony, and the Zhao family can have a stable backyard.
Now that they have a son, the Zhao family's bloodline continues. Zhao Qingyun is more grateful to his wife and pays more attention to taking care of Han Jiaojiao.
So, when Han Jiaojiao came out of confinement and her relatives and friends came to celebrate the full moon, the girls were surprised to find that—
Han Jiaojiao, who was thin, weak and sickly, became smooth and rosy-cheeked after giving birth to a child.
He has gained a lot of weight, and his small face, which is the size of a palm, is full of fat.
The key is that she is in very good spirits.
You can tell whether a woman’s life is going well or not from her face.
Han Jiaojiao's face was filled with happiness and comfort.
The ladies were also surprised to find that Han Jiaojiao, who was married and had children, still retained the innocence of a young girl.
Like her mother-in-law, she had clear innocence in her eyes.
"Princess Nanping must be living a very happy life in the Zhao family!"
"That's right, look at her little appearance, wow, she's even better off than at her mother's house!"
"...Humph, Nanping married into a lower class. If she doesn't live well, wouldn't that be too pitiful?"
"Marrying down means you can live well? Aren't there enough noble ladies in the capital who marry down?"
Everyone was talking in low voices.
As someone was talking, his eyes glanced at Zheng Wanjun standing beside him.
This person also married down.
It sounds like he's doing pretty well.
However, when Zheng Wanjun saw how Gu Qingcheng and Han Jiaojiao, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, got along with each other, there was obvious envy in his eyes.
Gu Qingcheng, the mother-in-law, has many shortcomings.
Zheng Wanjun used to be very picky.
However, after she got married and really got along with her mother-in-law, she found that Gu Qingcheng was a very rare good mother-in-law.
Being timid, sickly, easily influenced, and unable to take responsibility...what do these matter?
At least they are obedient.
Moreover, I also know "gratitude"——
If he married a lady from a high-class family and got the benefits of being a daughter-in-law, people would readily acknowledge him.
Even if they are squeezed or laughed at, they accept it calmly.
Unlike her mother-in-law, the once pitiful Mrs. Ji San, who had the same shortcomings, she always felt that she could do it.
Self-righteous and clever.
Although Madam Ji San did not dare to go against Zheng Wanjun, she secretly brought her niece over and acted and instigated in front of her son, which made Zheng Wanjun feel disgusted.
The kindness our family has shown to the Ji family is as great as the sky and as deep as the sea, but Madam Ji San has never been grateful.
She had suffered at the hands of her mother-in-law in the past, so she wanted her daughter-in-law to experience double the hardship.
Even though her family still depends on her daughter-in-law for livelihood, she still wants to act like a mother-in-law.
...It would take three days and three nights to describe all the wonderful qualities of my mother-in-law.
Fortunately, Ji Keji "realized" it and did not listen to Ji Sanniang's instigation. Instead, he stood in front of Zheng Wanjun.
Zheng Wanjun finally doesn't have to face her extremely wicked in-laws in person.
However, seeing the more harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair, Gu Qingcheng and Han Jiaojiao, Zheng Wanjun couldn't help but envy, even a little jealous and regretful.
She originally had the opportunity to become Mrs. Gu's daughter-in-law.
Zheng Wanjun felt very complicated, and she looked a little depressed.
The ladies did not know about Zheng Wanjun's past relationship with the Zhao family. They just thought that seeing Han Jiaojiao happy reminded them of the mess in their own family.
The sweet love story of Zheng Wanjun and Ji Keji was indeed circulating in Beijing.
But these ladies have already married and have been living under the control of their mother-in-law.
Some people have not yet become mother-in-law after years of being a daughter-in-law.
Therefore, the ladies knew very well that no matter how good their husbands were, they could not compare to a reliable mother-in-law.
Uh, no, it’s not about being reliable, but rather a reasonable and good mother-in-law.
That's not right. You don't have to be reasonable. As long as you can be considerate of your daughter-in-law and don't cause her trouble, then it's worth marrying into this family.
Just like what Zheng Wanjun complained, Zhao Qingyun's mother has many shortcomings, but she never makes mistakes at critical moments.
At this time, the news that Han Jiaojiao had a difficult delivery and had to undergo surgery had not yet spread.
However, Zhao Qingyun did not take a concubine, sleep with a maid, or have a mistress during Han Jiaojiao's pregnancy. The powerful people in the capital saw all of this.
Yes, Han Jiaojiao married down.
Zhao Qingyun is a newly crowned top scholar with no foundation. If he wants to gain a foothold in Beijing, he must support and worship Han Jiaojiao.
But, in addition to the hierarchy of status, there are also etiquette and rules.
In this era, even if a princess is noble and becomes pregnant, it can be forgiven if her husband sleeps with other women.
If a woman is virtuous, her husband will take the initiative to arrange things for her husband without him having to cheat on her.
Even a saint would understand why Zhao Qingyun, who married the Princess of Nanping, secretly slept with a woman.
