The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

When Li asked this question for the first time, the women in the room did not pay attention. When she asked the question again, they all looked at her at the same time.

Gu Jinchu raised his head and looked at Li with a smile.

She is as persistent as ever and will not give up until she achieves her goal.

Several old ladies had never seen Zheng Kaicheng before, so they asked casually, "Which family's young master is this? Except for being a little skinny, he looks pretty good."

Jiang Chengliang's facial features are very similar to his mother's, with a fair and clean face and delicate features that make him look a bit like a boy or a girl.

Madam Jiang simply replied, "This is the ninth young master of the old family. He was born with a weak constitution, so he has been raised by his biological mother."

What she said was the truth, and it could be completely understood that the Ninth Young Master was kept in the inner courtyard and had only recently come out to see people.

Wang was holding her grandson, and when the third brother's wife asked those questions, Chen Ge'er started to talk.

She then gave him an egg tart to distract Chen Ge'er's attention, and told the maid beside her, "Go and bring the Ninth Young Master over, so as not to tire out the Fifth Madam."

The maid walked to Gu Jinchu, bent over and skillfully picked up Jiang Chengliang, and coaxed him carefully, "Master Jiu, I will take you to play with Brother Chen."

Jiang Chengliang twisted his little body in the maid's arms, leaned on her shoulder, turned his head and looked at Gu Jinchu eagerly, and whispered reluctantly: "Sister... and brother..."

He had something in his mouth, so he couldn't hear clearly.

Wang asked her daughter-in-law Meng to take Chen Ge'er over. She looked at Gu Jinchu with a smile and said, "Children's words are innocent. Don't take them to heart, sister-in-law."

Li covered her mouth and smiled, "Fifth brother's wife is kind-hearted and treats Ninth Young Master so well, how could she care about his childish words."

The princess maintained her royal dignified demeanor. She placed the teacup on the small table beside her, raised her chin slightly, looked at Li with a haughty expression, and asked:

"This princess has one thing that I don't understand. Third Aunt has been repeatedly asking Liang Ge'er whether the baby in my aunt's belly is a sister or a brother. Shouldn't a normal person ask whether it is a brother or a sister?"

The smile in Li's eyes had not yet faded. She was pinching the meat floss on the plate with her little finger. When she heard the eldest princess' words, the snack on her fingertips fell back into the plate.

She turned her head, looking aggrieved and about to cry: "Are you saying that I'm not a normal person, Princess?"

Zhao Xuan raised her eyebrows, as if to say, "Otherwise, you're not that stupid."

With Li's status, she would be thrown into a dry well in the cold palace within two days of staying in the harem, and would have to leave a letter saying that she jumped in voluntarily.

As for my grandmother and my aunt, I just don't bother to argue with them.

Gu Jinchu sat leisurely in the chair, raised his hand and instructed the maid behind him, "Bai Zhi, pass the message and ask someone to send two boxes of pork floss Xiaobei to the third sister-in-law's yard. I remember she likes the salted egg yolk flavor."

Bai Zhi murmured a promise and walked out without even looking up.

He was afraid that if he was too slow, his master would see the uncontrollable smile on his face.

Li took back the sauced fingertips, looked at Gu Jinchu with a tense face and said in a dissatisfied tone: "You..."

"Why isn't it enough?" Gu Jinchu then asked with a smile, "Third sister-in-law, no matter how much you like something, you have to eat it in moderation. Too much is as bad as too little."

After saying that, he picked up the cup of milk tea, lowered his head and took a sip.

The princess openly said that she was abnormal, and Gu Jinchu mocked her in words! Li looked at Wang on the side, her eyes were full of tears, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Seeing this, Liu was concerned and asked her softly, "Third sister-in-law, your problem of crying in the wind has not been cured yet? Why not try another doctor? Otherwise, it will be embarrassing to let the guests misunderstand you in some important occasions."

Wang's smile was gentle, and the dimple on one side of her face was facing the sisters-in-law. "Third brother's wife is a beauty-conscious person. Maybe the makeup powder got into her eyes when she was putting on makeup."

Li took a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes. With slightly red eyes, she smiled and made amends for herself, "Fortunately, my sisters-in-law and my younger brothers and sisters-in-law know me best..."

Several old ladies seemed not to notice this little episode, especially Old Madam Zheng and Zheng Mudan, who no longer paid attention to this side after Gu Jinchu spoke.

Old Madam Song looked at the screen behind the Luohan bed and asked, "I wonder who made this embroidery. The embroidery skills are so amazing."

The exquisite craftsmanship lies not in the embossed floral patterns on the frame, but in the auspicious patterns outlined with gorgeous silk threads.

The overall shape is majestic, luxurious and precious, perfectly demonstrating the owner's noble status.

"I think the handwriting is familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen it..." said Mrs. Zhou with a hint of doubt on her face.

Wang looked up and saw that the thing that was placed there before was not this one. She had no idea where it came from.

Then I heard Madam Jiang say with a smile: "This is a birthday gift from Xiaowu's wife and Xiaowu. I put it here after it was delivered to me."

Mrs. Jiang had an expression of satisfaction and pride on her face.

Today is Mrs. Jiang's 50th birthday, and the first wife gave her a longevity calligraphy. It was written by Deng Wenyuan, a scholar in the previous dynasty, on his mother's 70th birthday. It is a priceless collection.

The second room gave a set of porcelain with the pattern of "Fu Shou Kang Ning" painted on it to express the good wishes for the happiness, longevity, health and peace of the elders.

The robe given by the third room was made of silk. The silk was soft, shiny, and exquisite, with a touch of luxury.

The gift from the fourth room was a wild ginseng that was over a hundred years old. Judging from its quality and completeness, it was a very expensive and rare item.

The gifts given by the four families far exceed the screen given by Gu Jinchu and Jiang Nansheng in terms of market value and collection value.

However, it was only this embroidered screen that Mrs. Jiang openly mentioned and showed off in front of the guests.

Wang withdrew her gaze from the screen. She had long heard that Princess Anping's double-sided embroidery was amazing, but she had not expected to see Gu Jinchu's showmanship at this moment.

She lowered her head with a sneer on her lips, but she was just relying on the favor of Master Jiang Wu...

Jiang Nansheng is the only legitimate son of Old Madam Jiang. Now that Gu Jinchu is pregnant again, she will naturally be treated as a treasure.

Sometimes, she really envied Gu Jinchu. She didn't have to do anything, and someone arranged everything for her.

At this time, a servant came over to report: "Madam, the Fifth Master is here to pay his respects to you."

Madam Jiang glanced at Gu Jinchu and said with a smile, "Look, he came over just after I finished talking about Xiaowu."

Xiaowu's wife came over early in the morning and had breakfast with these old guys. It had not been long since then.

Xiao Wu couldn't help but chase the man here.

PS: Mr. Jiang Sanye’s legal wife is Ms. Li, and Ms. Meng is the legal wife of Mr. Zheng Chengming, the eldest son. I messed up their writing in the previous chapters, but I have corrected it.
