Marry a powerful minister and remain a widow?I’m done with the book-wearing female role!

Because her mother Chen's attitude changed, Jiang Yuzhu tossed and turned and didn't sleep well all night.

Hong Li was sleeping on the small couch in the outer room, listening to the noise of tossing and turning in the inner room, and asked cautiously: "Madam, are you still not asleep?"

"Can't sleep."

Jiang Yuzhu simply sat up and said, "Hong Li, please talk to me."

"Madam, it's already late at night, would you like me to read to you Mr. Ciao's travel diary?"

Hong Li rubbed her eyes. She was also a little worried. Every time she read Chen Tao's travel notes, she fell asleep first as a current person.

The effect of hypnosis is powerful, and it works much faster than incense that helps you sleep.

"Not urgent."

Jiang Yuzhu had doubts in her heart and asked, "Hong Li, tell the truth, how do I treat the master?"

Hongli didn't know why, but still replied truthfully: "Madam is very good to me."

"Be specific."

Both her parents have turned against Xie Zhao, and Jiang Yuzhu has really lost her confidence. She wants to hear what her personal maid thinks.

Outside the door, Hong Jin heard the noise and quietly opened the curtain and entered.

Seeing Hong Li racking his brains for thought, Hong Jin said quickly: "The master was summoned by the emperor to the north. The journey was dangerous, so he relied on his wife to accompany him. She has a deep love for the master."

Although it was the emperor's imperial edict that made Madam have to go all the way and share the joys and sorrows, she paid her dues.

"You are pregnant and it has been hard to get pregnant. You are a great contributor to the Xie family!"

Hong Li finally thought of something, "You are a very lucky person. The Xie family depends on you to save them."

Jiang Yuzhu thought about it and thought what the two maids said was very reasonable.

She treats Xie Zhao and the Xie family well. Why was Mrs. Chen so brainwashed by Xie Zhao that she thought she was so bad?

"The master often secretly takes out letters and embroidered handkerchiefs, and my parents happen to see them every time."

Xie Zhaodong hinted that the approach was very exaggerated.

Jiang Yuzhu thought for a moment and then ordered: "Hong Li, please turn on the oil lamp and embroider a fox's handkerchief."

Hong Li's hand holding the teacup paused, and he lowered his face and begged for mercy: "Madam, you know that this slave's embroidery work is the worst, and it is not as good as Ningxiang and Ningdong."

It is really painful to do embroidery work.

If it were Hong Jin, it would be better than her.

Hong Li looked at his wife nervously, hoping that she would change her mind.

Jiang Yuzhu coughed lightly and tried to keep her expression as natural as possible: "Only our embroidery skills are similar, so it's not easy for others to see."

Since he wanted to send a veil to Xie Zhao and find someone to replace him, he had to find someone who was at a similar level as himself to get through. Jiang Yuzhu thought that Hong Li was just right.

"You want to send me off?"

Hong Li seemed to understand, and hesitated and said, "Why don't I give you a green bamboo handkerchief?"

Embroidering bamboo leaves is the easiest and can be completed within an hour.

"Embroider bamboo leaves. Mother, please don't think it's too ordinary. Let's embroider foxes."

Jiang Yuzhu made up her mind. She believed that someone as transparent as Xie Zhao should understand what she meant.

"My master is a two-faced man. On the surface, he doesn't care about anything, but in reality he is a petty person, secretly putting on my shoes."

When Jiang Yuzhu thought about it, she felt no guilt at all.

Take having children as an example, what contribution did Xie Zhao make?

After figuring it out, Jiang Yuzhu quickly fell asleep, leaving the red carp outside and embroidering the fox resignedly.

When the sky was bright, the red carp, with dark circles under his eyes, finally completed the embroidery work.

"here you go!"

Jiang Yuzhu was very satisfied and rewarded the red carp with a carp jade pendant. She thoughtfully said, "You have a rest today, so you don't have to wait on me."

"Madam, it's just one night, I can still survive this."

Hong Li is used to serving tea and water beside his wife, and is always worried that others will not serve her well.

Jiang Yuzhu twitched the corners of her eyes and said deceitfully: "Go and catch up on your sleep, otherwise I, the wife, will always feel like I am squeezing you."

After Hong Li returned to the room, Jiang Yuzhu hurriedly called to Hong Jin and said, "Hurry up and put on my makeup. Apply a layer of dark powder under my eyes."

Hong Jin followed the instructions and suddenly understood his wife's thoughts.

"Are you worried that the old lady will see the dark circles under the red carp's eyes?"

Her wife is really smart and doesn't miss any small details. Hong Jin secretly admires her.

Jiang Yuzhu smiled lightly and said, "What else? My mother is very smart."

In Mrs. Chen's heart, her sympathy for Xie Zhao prevailed, and it was easy to find fault with her as a daughter. But if Jiang Yuzhu really stayed up late to embroider, Mrs. Chen would only feel sorry for her.

If Jiang Yuzhu wants to be strong, she will never fall into Xie Zhao's plan, so she has no choice but to deceive her mother, Mrs. Chen.

After handing over the fox handkerchief, just as Jiang Yuzhu thought, Mrs. Chen began to blame herself again: "My mother said I would give you two days, why did you stay up late? You are pregnant now and have low energy."

"Mom, my daughter has thought about what you said carefully and thinks that what you said makes sense."

Jiang Yuzhu leaned against Chen and said in despair, "Yuan He has never been like this before. I guess I didn't take care of him, so he took out letters and old handkerchiefs at every turn. I guess outsiders knew that I was neglecting him. "

Jiang Yuzhu is also a face-saving person and does not want outsiders to know about her family affairs.

Mrs. Chen thought for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "My mother was wrong. It is not easy for Yuan He to worry about the country and the people, but it is also difficult for you to be in Jiangnan, with a big belly and no husband to accompany you."

Xie Zhao was very naive when he made demands at this time.

Mrs. Chen wanted to blame Xie Zhao, but found that she could not speak.

From beginning to end, Xie Zhao didn't ask for anything, it was all Chen's imagination.

With her mother Chen and her good sister Zhao Fendie accompanying her, life is more fulfilling than before.

After Chen came to Su City, Jiang Yuzhu had a backbone, and the worries in her heart completely disappeared.

The days passed quickly, and it was the middle of August in the lunar calendar.

Jiang Yuzhu's belly was getting bigger and bigger. She lowered her head and saw only her bulging belly but not her feet.

As the delivery day approached, everyone on Zhuangzi's side began to get nervous.

"Madam, the delivery room has been set up."

From getting up early in the morning, Jiang Yuzhu couldn't live without people. Even when she went to the toilet, she had a maid to attend to her.

Jiang Yuzhu was a little uncomfortable at first, but she calmed down after doing it more times.

"Doctor Shao said that you should be supported by a slave when you walk. If you fall, you will definitely give birth prematurely."

The red carp would tirelessly remind me several times a day, just like a monk chanting sutras.

Ningxiang also followed: "I heard from Divine Doctor Shao that most women who are pregnant with twins give birth prematurely. You should be more careful."

"know."

In the afternoon, Jiang Yuzhu sent away several maids, leaving only Hongxiu and Hongjin.

The two of them felt relieved when they saw their wife's expression.

"Madam, it's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival."

As long as she thinks that the person who killed the third brother Xiong is still hiding under her nose, Hong Jin will be very worried.

She is not as open-minded as Madam, and she has been unable to sleep at night recently.

"Yes, so I won't delay."

Jiang Yuzhu counted the time and planned to find a solution once and for all.

Before production, hidden dangers must be addressed.

"Hongjin, is the person you asked you to find safe?"

Jiang Yuzhu asked again with certainty.

Hong Jin nodded and straightened his expression: "I left you in Su City, so it must be safe."

"Do it tonight!"

Without any buffer, Jiang Yuzhu's decision was sudden.
