Gu Jiangru immediately sensed a sense of crisis and quickly lowered her voice to say to Aunt Zhang:
"Mother, you must not be careless about Gu Jiangli's diet. Pregnant women have to be very careful about what they can and cannot eat. Please don't tamper with her diet just to get back at her."
Aunt Zhang's face was grave. "Alright, Ru'er, I understand. I won't do anything rash. You should rest well. I'll come to see you again later."
After saying goodbye, the two opened the door and found Lotus standing far away at the bottom of the steps outside the door.
It seemed as if he wanted to prove that after saying that sentence by the door, he had no intention of eavesdropping on their conversation.
Aunt Zhang became more calculating and cautious. "Miss Lotus, thank you for your trouble. Let's go."

Aunt Zhang tried hard to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth, and said with some flattery, "Thank you very much, Your Highness! I will definitely take good care of you."
Gu Jiangli smiled faintly and remained silent.
Aunt Zhang has been taking very careful care of her these past two days, fearing that something might happen to her child.
She would personally taste everything before giving it to Gu Jiangli.
Gu Jiangru must have reminded Aunt Zhang to be careful, and that the child must not have any problems.
Unfortunately, even if Aunt Zhang cherishes her like a precious treasure, this child is bound to have problems.
Aunt Zhang will definitely not escape this calamity.
