Chapter 201 Protecting Wife
Seeing the prince coming back, Nanny Zheng and the maids in the room bowed and took their leave.
Xiao Mo smiled and said, "What are you so happy about?"
In fact, he had just stood at the door and listened for a while, and already had a general idea of what was going on.
But now, looking at the pretty girl with beautiful eyes and eyebrows, he wanted to lead her to talk more.
Chen Shuyao then told him everything that happened that day from beginning to end, and at the end she sighed, "It's a good thing that Manager Yang was moved by compassion, otherwise I don't know what would happen to Changfu now!"
After Xiao Mo heard from his wife about Jiang Changfu being beaten, he asked a few more questions.
Chen Shuyao smiled and talked about Wuming proposing marriage to her maid: "I just called Jiang Changfu from the shop to Yan Yutang to ask questions, but he barged in and bluntly said he wanted to marry Qiaowei."
After she finished speaking, she heard the man in front of her let out a muffled laugh. He reached out and pinched the young lady's ear, "You don't tell the truth to your husband? Huh?"
Seeing that she was exposed, Chen Shuyao could only say: "I just want to see if he really wants to marry Qiao Wei."
Xiao Mo laughed and scolded: "What a cunning little girl!"
He added, "Aren't you afraid of getting too involved with my people?"
Chen Shuyao's inner thoughts were guessed, but she would not admit it. "No, isn't this just helping to set up a match?"
Another burst of laughter broke out in the room.
On the sixth day of August, Chen Shuyao sent Qiao Wei off to marry. She helped the two of them rent a house outside the mansion, prepared twenty loads of dowry for Qiao Wei, and sent her off like an ordinary family marrying off their daughter.
They were given three days off when they got married. After marriage, Wuming and Qiaowei still worked for the couple.
Chen Shuyao recruited four more maids into Yan Yutang, naming them Caifu, Cailing, Caisang and Caiwei respectively.
Five months have passed since the wedding, and during this period, Shen Shuyao has not become pregnant.
Wang was secretly anxious, but when she faced her daughter-in-law, she did not talk about having a grandson as she did before.
Instead, tell the other person to combine work and rest and relax their body and mind.
Chen Shuyao herself didn't think there was anything wrong, but when October came and the news of Qiao Wei's pregnancy came, she finally became a little anxious. Could it be that there was something wrong with her body?
She and Xiao Mo had sex almost all the time except for the days when her period came, sometimes even more than once, so why couldn't she get pregnant?
Chen Shuyao was embarrassed to discuss this issue with the prince, but the Chengguo Mansion had a regular doctor who would come to the mansion every month to take the masters' pulses and examine their condition.
The doctor who usually treated her was the female doctor Jiang, and she had never heard from her that there was anything wrong with her body, so Shen Shuyao was a little confused at this time.
In October, two major events happened in the Chengguo Mansion. One was that Zhou Shuhe gave birth to a son, and the other was that Xiao Jinrong got married.
Hearing that Zhou Shuhe had given birth safely, Shen Shuyao brought gifts to her yard the next day.
The room was full of people. Liu was grinning from ear to ear, but Wang felt a little uncomfortable.
Even Chen couldn't help but worry about her former niece.
Although Chen Shuyao and the prince are well matched, if a woman cannot give birth to a son, she will be inferior to others for the rest of her life.
Chen understood this point deeply, and her daughter Jingyi also understood it deeply.
Fortunately, the youngest daughter Xiao Jinshan gave birth to a boy for the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion not long ago, which fulfilled Chen's dream of many years.
As for Zhou Shuhe, the child she gave birth to is the eldest grandson of the Xiao family's generation, which should be a happy thing no matter how you look at it.
Her husband was not the eldest, but she gave birth to the eldest grandson.
Therefore, when she saw her elder sister-in-law, whom she had envied before, Zhou Shuhe seemed much more enthusiastic.
Chen Shuyao observed the subtle expressions on everyone's faces. They were still talking and laughing as usual, but she seemed a little depressed after returning.
Xiao Mo returned to Yan Yu Hall from the palace. He called Yaoyao several times but no one answered. Finally, he found her after lifting the curtain.
When the man dug his wife out of the quilt, he saw that she looked listless. He thought she was sick and shouted for someone to call a doctor.
Chen Shuyao forced a smile and said it was not necessary, but Xiao Mo became even more confused.
After the two of them finished dinner and Chen Shuyao went out for a walk, the man asked Madam Zheng, "What did Madam do today? Tell me!"
The nanny has been following Chen Shuyao all the time, and sometimes she can have a rough idea of what is going on with her daughter.
I went to see the baby and fell asleep when I came back.
But the girl has only been married for half a year, so there is no need to be so anxious.
Nanny Zheng is an experienced person. She knows that pregnancy is a matter of fate. The girl is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion. With people around her getting pregnant one after another, she is inevitably influenced by outsiders.
Madam Zheng looked at the man in front of her and said truthfully with a smile, "The young lady went to the third room to visit the fourth young mistress and her child who was in confinement after childbirth."
I thought the prince would understand after I said this, but I didn't expect his eyes to turn cold in an instant: "Did Yaoyao make her angry?"
Nanny Zheng felt amused, but at the same time, she was satisfied with his protective attitude.
She said somewhat helplessly, "I think the Crown Prince's wife also wants to have a child."
After the nanny finished saying this, she saw the man in front of her sitting there in a daze, and then he smiled as if relieved of a heavy burden.
When Chen Shuyao came back, she did not see the prince.
She looked at the sky which was almost dark, asked the nanny, and knowing that the man might have gone to Mingzhe Hall, she didn't pay much attention to it.
It was cold in October, so she washed up and lay down on the bed, but fell asleep again after a while.
But when Shen Shuyao woke up again, she saw that everything around her was pitch black. When she felt a slight shaking under her body, she was really scared.
If she hadn't smelled the familiar scent on the man, Shen Shuyao would have almost thought she was being kidnapped.
She reached out to grab the hand on her waist. At the same time, Xiao Mo also lit the lantern in the car.
The bright light of the lantern instantly filled every corner of the car. Shen Shuyao probed the man's eyebrows and asked, "Where are we going?"
"Let's go live in the hot spring villa." Xiao Mo said with a smile.
"Why don't you go to the palace tomorrow morning? How can you make it in time?"
"Tomorrow is a day off, don't you remember?"
Shen Shuyao thought about it and it was true, but she asked again: "Why do you suddenly want to live in the manor?"
The man's face was illuminated by the light, and he looked at her with a teasing look. "What do you think?"
Chen Shuyao didn't know, she just felt a little tired. The baby in the third room was very cute. She had just dreamed of a little baby while lying in bed.
Seeing her frown, the man asked again: "Yaoyao, do you want to give birth to a child for your husband?"
Chen Shuyao's cheeks flushed. She really liked children, but it had been half a year and there was no news at all.
As for Xiao Mo's statement about wanting to give birth to a child for him, since she's already married to him, if she doesn't give birth to a child for him, would she give one to someone else?
"I want to." Shen Shuyao said lightly.
Then, Huixiang, who was following them, heard a burst of joyful laughter coming from the carriage.
Qiaowei was still in the early stages of her pregnancy, so she was kept in a house outside just in case.
At present, Huixiang took over her job as the head maid. After Qiaowei got married, she gradually understood some things.
Hearing the laughter in the carriage, Huixiang couldn't help but smile.
