The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

When the carriage passed by the women's clothing store and the jewelry store, Brother Yu clamored to get off.

At first Pei Jiuniang didn't understand, but later she saw Yu Ge staring at the beautifully dressed woman who walked out of the shop, staring at her clothes, her head and other places, staring so intently that she made the woman feel uncomfortable, so she turned to her.

Pei Jiuniang pondered for a moment, walked up to him, and asked cautiously, "Brother Yu, do you want me to dress like this too?"

Brother Yu nodded slightly.

Pei Jiuniang happily held Brother Yu in her arms and stroked his soft hair. When she was so excited, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Her brother Yu is not a fool. Not only is he not a fool, he can smell the scent of ink. He is a smart child and very filial.

In her previous life, when she took Gu Xijue and Gu Yuzhi shopping for clothes, they never thought of her as their adoptive mother.

After all, she is my biological daughter, and we are related by blood, so I will truly care about her.

She quietly wiped away her tears, pulled Brother Yu into the store, and bought a lot of clothes, jewelry, and headwear. She even changed into a new outfit and asked Brother Yu, "Does this look good on you, Mom?"

Brother Yu nodded awkwardly. Although he still didn't say much, he couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.

"Brother Yu likes it. Mommy, please dress like this from now on, okay?"

Brother Yu seemed a little surprised, and after a long time he nodded slightly a few times.

Not only Brother Yu, but also Caifeng and Cuiping who came with her, as well as several other maids and servants thought that she looked good dressed like this.

There was a large bronze mirror in the shop, specially used for people to try on clothes. When Pei Jiuniang saw herself in the bronze mirror, she almost didn't recognize herself.

Yes, although she was the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, she was only twenty-one years old. In order to reassure Liu and to intimidate those people in the Marquis' Mansion, she dressed herself up to look older. Over time, her mentality seemed to have aged a lot.

Now, looking at herself in the mirror wearing peach-colored clothes and bright jewelry, she remembered that she was once a pretty girl.

She wasn't planning on being the mistress of a marquis's mansion, so why was she dressing up as an old woman?

Thinking of this, she took out another silver note and bought several sets of clothes from head to toe, covering all seasons.

Looking at the girl who looked as old-fashioned as her, she shook her head helplessly and took out another one.

It's rare to see such a generous customer, and the shop owners and clerks of these shops were very busy and happy. They even asked for the address in person to deliver the goods to the door.

Seeing that they had a good attitude, Pei Jiuniang ordered that all new goods should be sent to the Marquis' Mansion.

Upon learning that they were the mistress and the prince of the Marquis's Mansion, the shopkeeper became even more attentive.

The things were delivered without waiting for Pei Jiuniang to return home.

All in all, this trip was a great pleasure for both the master and the servant.

After leaving the market town, she took Brother Yu to visit Lord Yu, the former director of the Imperial Hospital. The original intention was to check on Brother Yu, but she didn't expect that Brother Yu didn't have any serious problems, but she did have a big problem.

"It seems that you have ignored my previous warnings. If you are like this, you don't need to knock on my door again in the future, or you will make me angry to death."

Lord Yu and the Pei family are old friends. Pei Jiuniang grew up with her grandparents. Her grandfather and Lord Yu are good friends, and Lord Yu can be said to have watched Pei Jiuniang grow up.

Pei Jiuniang suffered from severe bleeding during childbirth of Yu Ge, and the midwives and imperial doctors in the city were helpless. In the end, it was Lord Yu who saved her and Yu Ge's lives with a golden needle. Pei Jiuniang was deficient in energy and blood after giving birth, and Lord Yu repeatedly reminded her to take good care of herself and not to overwork herself. She agreed verbally, but took over the management of the household affairs of the Marquis' Mansion right after she was out of confinement.

It was originally forced upon her by Liu, but Liu told others that she wanted to take advantage of the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion so as to control her as the mother-in-law, which made the maids around Pei Jiuniang so angry that they felt sorry for her.

Pei Jiuniang had been taught since childhood that a woman should assist her husband and fulfill her filial duties. Even if she was unhappy or unwell, she never said anything.

Moreover, when she learned that her body might no longer be able to bear children, Liu not only did not vent her anger and make sarcastic remarks to her like other mothers-in-law did, but she comforted her instead and never mentioned the matter of taking a concubine. When someone even suggested taking a concubine for Gu Tingzhi, she rejected it.

At that time, she was both touched and cherished her life. She felt that she had met the most understanding mother-in-law in the world. Even though Liu was picky and did something wrong in other aspects, she still remembered her good points.

Now that I think about it, Liu might not have been happy to hear that she was unable to have children.

But I already knew there were two more outside, I was just keeping them in mind.

"I was wrong. Please help me think of a solution, Grandpa Yu."

Pei Jiuniang came back to her senses, bowed deeply to Lord Yu, and silently added in her heart that at least she could live long enough to grow up with Brother Yu and have enough time to accompany him.

"Eh? Why did you come to your senses today, woman? Didn't you tell me that you were exaggerating? Or is it time for you to run out of time?"

"I didn't know better before and always felt young. This year I realized that my health is not good. My child is still young. If something happens to me, the child will suffer."

Pei Jiuniang glanced at Brother Yu every time she spoke, which made it impossible for Lord Yu to say anything unpleasant. He sighed deeply and then picked up the pen to write down a prescription.

"One serving a day, your mansion is eating this, remember, don't work too hard, otherwise, even gods can't save you."

"Yes, I remember." Pei Jiuniang took Brother Yu to pay respect to Lord Yu. Seeing that he closed his eyes to rest, she took Brother Yu away.

On the way, he asked someone to get medicine and returned to the marquis's mansion.

At the door, when he was directing the maids and servants to unload things from the carriage, he happened to run into a branch of the Marquis's mansion who came to pay their respects to Liu and ask for money.

Having just received a lot of good things, Li was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. While instructing the maid's mother to be careful, she pulled her grandson out. As soon as she left the mansion, she saw the carriage parked at the door, and Pei Jiuniang and Yu Ge standing by and giving orders.

"Oh, our filial daughter-in-law is back. This car full of things, is it for your mother-in-law? Your mother-in-law is so lucky to marry such a capable daughter-in-law. Not only does she manage the mansion in an orderly manner, I think it is more than ten times better than before. The key is filial piety."

As Li spoke, she moved forward, staring at the things taken down from the car. She was dazzled and couldn't see it all, so she called the maid and servant to take a closer look.

The little grandson beside her was a few years older than Brother Yu. He often came to the Marquis' Mansion with her and knew Brother Yu, but he never took Brother Yu seriously. At this time, when he saw Brother Yu wearing new clothes and new shoes and being held by Pei Jiuniang, he seemed to be a different person and suddenly became a little unhappy.

And because his grandmother said that he had to wear shabby clothes in order to get benefits from the Marquis's Mansion, he was dressed particularly poorly. When he compared the clothes, he was immediately dismayed.

Pointing at the clothes on Yu Ge, he shouted to Pei Jiu Niang, "I want his clothes and his shoes. Give them to me."

Having said that, without waiting for Pei Jiuniang to say anything, he was about to take action himself, scaring Yu Ge so much that he quickly hid behind Pei Jiuniang.
