"Sister-in-law, you're too polite. We are a family. There's no need to be so polite." Gu Lingyue said with a smile.
Although Gu Lingyue said this, Zhong Wanqian knew that it was she, not her husband, who was infertile. Even if Gu Lingyue did not give her treatment, it was not impossible for her husband to have a child. Therefore, the biggest beneficiary of her being able to have a child was herself, not others.
She was not someone who could not tell right from wrong, so she felt even more guilty towards Gu Lingyue.
At this moment, she couldn't help but blame her mother and sister.
With their family background, it would have been easy for her sister to find a good marriage, but they insisted on digging their own graves by getting close to Prince Jing, and ended up with such a fate. She didn't actually blame Gu Lingyue, she just felt sorry for her parents.
Gu Lingyue saw the sadness in Zhong Wanqian's eyes and guessed that she must be thinking of her mother.
A woman's emotions are unstable during pregnancy, and it is normal for her to feel upset when something like that happens in her family.
At this time, Gu Lingyue had forgotten that she was also pregnant and had just conceived a child.
She calmly changed the subject and said, "Sister-in-law, if you're not feeling unwell, you don't have to stay in bed all the time. Proper exercise will still help the baby's development. Just don't have sex for the next three months."
Hearing Gu Lingyue's reminder, Zhong Wanqian's face immediately turned red, and she nodded shyly, "Yes, sister-in-law will remember it."
Tang Wenqing was also a little embarrassed. After all, it was indeed a bit embarrassing to let his sister remind them about this matter.
Seeing the bitter look on his wife's face, he knew that she was missing her mother-in-law again.
Tang Wenqing coughed, looked at Zhong Wanqian and said, "Yue'er said you don't have to stay in bed all the time, so you can ask someone to accompany you for a walk in the garden, or you can go chat with the second son's wife or something. I'll come back to accompany you after I'm done with my work here."
Zhong Wanqian nodded and responded, feeling much better.
Although her mother and father are gone, she still has her husband and will have her own children in the future. They are her support, and she feels very happy.
Upon seeing this, Gu Lingyue got up and left with the Yunshu sisters, making an excuse that she had something to do, leaving the space to Tang Wenqing and his wife.
On her way back to her residence, Yun Jin thought of the letter Wang An had sent her. After a moment's thought, she said, "Princess, Uncle Wang has sent a letter."
"Oh~" Gu Lingyue asked as they walked, "Is everything okay in the mansion?"
She had been out for such a long time, and she didn't know whether her mother and Rui'er were still living in the palace or had returned to the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion?
She originally planned to buy a house for her mother near the palace, but a series of events delayed the matter.
This time when she returns, she must get this matter done first. After all, staying in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion or the Prince's Mansion is not a long-term solution.
"Everything is fine in the mansion..."
As soon as Yun Jin said this, Yun Shu said anxiously, "Sister, let me tell you..."
She had wanted to tell him yesterday, but her sister insisted that the princess had just returned and must be very tired, and asked her to talk about it later. Before she could say anything, her sister started talking.
Yun Jin found it a little funny, but didn't say anything else.
Gu Lingyue stopped, looked at Yun Shu and said with a smile: "Tell me, what happened?"
The Yunjin sisters also stopped in their tracks. Yunshu looked angry and pouted, "I don't know what the emperor was thinking. He actually gave the prince two concubines and a wife. The most infuriating thing is that the prince's uncle had already stopped those women from entering the palace, but that old witch, the queen, actually sent someone to personally escort those women back into the palace."
Gu Lingyue chuckled after hearing this, "What's there to be angry about? They're just a few women."
Yun Shu was stunned. "Princess, aren't you angry? That woman was sent to the prince."
Yun Jin couldn't bear to watch it any longer and reminded him, "Do you think that with the love the prince has for the princess, he would fall for other women?"
Yun Shu thought about it and felt that it was true. He was just overthinking it.
Gu Lingyue didn't think there was anything wrong with Long Shang's attitude towards her.
She never took Long Shang's favor for granted.
If it's about pampering, he can pamper you when he likes you, and he can pamper others when he likes others.
So, in her life motto, men are the spice of life.
If there is a man, her life may be more fulfilling. Without a man, she can still live a wonderful life.
“Whether the prince likes or not, those women are put behind him. What Queen Shen wants is for me to be angry.
If I get angry, I'll play into her trap.
Besides, isn’t she just trying to alienate the relationship between me and your prince? Then let’s see if your prince will want those women…”
Gu Lingyue snorted coldly. If Long Shang dared to look for those women, she would make him the first eunuch prince in history.
Yun Shu and Yun Jin looked at each other, hoping that their master would not let down their princess or the trust they had placed in him.
The master and his two servants continued walking towards the courtyard where they lived.
At this moment, Long Shang, who was handling official business, suddenly sneezed. Yun Hao hurried forward and said, "Master, you have caught a cold. Would you like me to ask the kitchen to bring you a bowl of ginger soup?"
Although he felt that the weather in Youzhou in October was still warm enough to prevent their master from catching a cold, as a competent close subordinate, he should still care about his master's health.
The most important thing was what happened just now. He was afraid of being punished by his master for his poor performance, so he wanted to please his master.
Long Shang didn't know why he suddenly sneezed.
In this weather, he won't catch a cold or get sick.
When he was about to say no, he suddenly remembered that his Yue'er was pregnant now. It would be bad if he really got sick and infected Yue'er.
"Okay, go ask the kitchen to prepare some ginger soup. Everyone who comes into contact with the princess should drink a bowl to prevent colds."
Yun Hao: ...
No way, he was just talking casually. His master really wanted to drink ginger soup, and a bowl for each person. Isn't this too exaggerated?
But he also knew that his master's words were final, so it would be better for him to do as he was told.
"Yes, I will give the order right away."
After Yun Hao left, Long Shang thought about what he said, stood up and walked towards the door. He was going to pick up Gu Lingyue, but just as he opened the door, Gu Lingyue and the other two had already walked into the yard.
