Yu Zhu didn't take that matter to heart. With his status, there was no need to be afraid of any mistresses. Even if the men were protecting those women, she could deal with them. What's more, the facts proved that Cheng Xunxun had no such intention at all.

That night, after severely "punishing" myself in bed for breaking the wooden peach, I happily agreed to carve a bunch of grapes...

The days passed slowly, and when I got bored, I would call one of my cousins ​​to come over and tease her, or else I would unintentionally do things that would give Gong a headache. Without the many restrictions in her boudoir, I could live a comfortable life.

【26nbsp;】

When the begonia hanging on the desk sprouted white and purple flowers, a bright red invitation was delivered to Yu Zhu's hand. It was actually the christening ceremony for the eldest grandson of the Runan Palace.

Gong was also going. She looked at Yu Zhu with worry on her face, "If it's inconvenient for my second brother and sister, don't go."

Yuzhu was shocked, what's the inconvenience?

"Didn't your elder sister enter the palace and become a concubine? The one who gave birth to the child is the crown prince... Don't blame your sister-in-law for speaking badly. The Runan Palace has invited almost all the prominent people in the capital, just in case... But what?

Okay." Seeing that Yu Zhu was not conscious at all, Gong had no choice but to spread his arms and say.

Yu Zhu didn't think about it at first, but smiled when he heard this, "I'm sorry for my sister-in-law's concern, but the Lin family has been separated for a long time, so it doesn't matter. Besides, I am now the second wife of the Cheng family. Who dares to shame me?"

She would be ridiculed if she didn't go. Being able to attend the baptism of the royal family's eldest grandson is also an honor. It can even be said to be a status symbol. It is really the best environment for the bride to expand her social circle.

And maybe we can see Mr. Cui.

The baptism ceremony in the palace was held on a sunny day. Yu Zhu asked whether Gong would leave relatively late - she was trying to show off, because normally the distinguished guests would come late, only those with lower status

So he rushed over early. He told her that he was going to go out first, and also sent someone to Deyuan to report a message. If he was lucky, he could stay with Mr. Cui for a while.

Unfortunately, those who went to Deyuan brought back some not-so-good news. Grandma Yang was in poor health recently, and Cui was busy going to Pingyuan Marquis Mansion to attend to her illness. Although she received the message, she did not have time to go.

Yu Zhu was a little uneasy. What the elderly fear most is getting sick. Many people will never get up again once they get sick. However, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion is still a bit far away from the Runan Prince's Mansion. If you come back and forth, you may not be able to make it in time.

.

After pondering for a while, he still ordered his servants to set up the car. Anyway, she is the youngest daughter-in-law, so she doesn't have to worry too much. She doesn't have the meaning of representing the whole government. She might as well go early, give gifts, socialize, and see if she can get some free time.

Look at grandma.

Cheng Guogong's Mansion, which was honored by his ancestors, is located in the center of the inner city, just a straight line away from the circle where Emperor Xungui lives. The light carriage arrived not long after a bumpy ride.

After being welcomed into the house by the maid, Yu Zhu took a look and saw that there were already a lot of people. Most of them he didn't know, and they probably weren't from some super high-ranking family. Although Yu Zhu couldn't say he knew all the women in that circle, he

What you should know is absolutely not unknown.

Suddenly, he felt someone pat him on the back. Yu Zhu turned around and saw Ruqing standing there with a cute smile on her face.

"Sister Ruqing." Yuzhu shouted in surprise, "Why are you here so early?"

Ruqing was a little embarrassed when she heard this. She looked at the women around her and talked, then she whispered into Yuzhu's ear and said, "I'm here to see the child. I've never seen such a small child before."

Yuzhu knew that Ruqing's mother, Bai, had only given birth to two children. Ruqing's younger brother was called Rumo. They were almost a few years apart. The two children were born before and after, and they would definitely not be able to get close to each other... She felt pity for him and deliberately interrupted her.

Said: "Sister Ruqing loves children so much, why don't she give birth to one quickly? It's better to watch other people's families than play with your own family."

Ruqing's face suddenly fainted with two clouds of red. She stretched out her hand to grab Yuzhu and scolded her with a smile: "You girl, how can you become so courageous after getting married... It can be seen that life is easy, the second master of the Cheng family has treated you

Spoiled."

The two of them laughed for a while, but after all, they didn't want to be too funny in front of others. Wei Wei packed up his clothes and found a place to sit down and talk.

"How is your mother-in-law? Is she nice to you?" Ruqing lowered her voice and asked. After all, it is not good for a daughter-in-law to criticize her mother-in-law, so these words can only be said in private.

Yu Zhu picked up a melon seed and peeled it, and said with a smile: "Okay, sometimes I think she is more powerful than my mother."

Ru Qing said a surprised "Eh-", shook her head and said: "Look what kind of luck you have, it's just a powerful mother, but you actually have a powerful mother-in-law."

"It's awesome. You don't know what my father-in-law is like. He is typically confused about big things and unclear about small things. If my mother-in-law hadn't been so scared, the entire Duke's mansion would be..." Yu Zhu made a sign of complete destruction.

"That's not bad, but you're going to have to endure hardship. If your mother-in-law is a naive mother-in-law, she just needs to be coaxed. If you are a powerful mother-in-law, you have to think about something for a long time."

Yu Zhu put the melon seeds into his mouth, chewed them twice and felt the mouthful was full of fragrance. He smiled and said: "I am just lazy. The more powerful she is, the better. I am happy to hide in the back and live my little life. I

My eldest sister-in-law is the unlucky one. It would be fine if she were more practical, but she is a little clever and won’t look back even after hitting the wall.”

Ruqing took the teacup and drank tea. After thinking about it, she smiled and said: "Yes, it is right to live a good life. It is not tiring to calculate this and that all day long." She married the eldest young master of the Tan family, and she has an elder.

The wife and five other wives just closed their doors and lived their own lives, and the house didn't need to worry about anything.

As they were talking and waiting for the third baptismal ceremony to begin, a maid suddenly came over and said with a smile: "Mrs. Cheng Er, our lady would like to ask you to come over."

Yu Zhu took a closer look and couldn't help but ask: "Who is your wife?"

"It's Concubine Lin." The maid answered quickly.

Yuzhu frowned, what was she still fussing over at this time? Didn't she hit the Crown Princess in the face now? Just as she was thinking about whether to use urine escape to get rid of her, she saw another person standing next to her.

This maid was wearing a pink vest and had a nice smile. She looked very amiable. She smiled brightly and said with a smile: "This is the second wife of the Cheng family. The Crown Princess invites you to come over."

What is going on? Yuzhu and Ruqing looked at each other. She seemed not to be that familiar with the Crown Princess.

But it's good to be able to get rid of Hongdou now. Yu Zhu stood up immediately, nodded and said: "You can lead the way."

Crown Princess Gu can't see the wind yet, so even though the weather is getting hotter, the doors and windows of the confinement room are still closed. As soon as she stepped in, Yuzhu felt a hot breath mixed with a strong fragrance hitting his face.

When I came here, I couldn't help but secretly feel that Mrs. Xu was unlucky. It must be such torture to insist on not taking a shower or washing her hair for a month in this kind of weather. It's strange that people are not sour. No wonder the incense smelled early.

Wearing a wide-brimmed forehead wiper that looked very thick at first glance, Mrs. Gu was leaning on a crimson velvet pillow with the characters "Fu" in Chinese characters. When she saw Yu Zhu coming in, she smiled and said, "It's really rude to invite you here."

Yu Zhu looked at the women standing in front of the bed calmly, and smiled sincerely: "It's okay, even if you don't call me, I have to come and see the baby first." How could he forget to praise the mother while chatting with her?

Complimenting the child for his good looks, and then saying that he looks like so-and-so. In principle, she has never seen the child's father, so she has to say that the nose, eyebrows, hair, mouth, or eyes resemble the mother's, and then express how powerful he will be in the future if he is so strong.

It's a normal procedure. How can I do it if I don't finish it?

After giving birth to a son, Mrs. Xu was probably happy to hold it out and show it off. She immediately asked the wet nurse to hold the baby, and then introduced to Yu Zhu: "This is Princess De'an. These are my mother-in-law and my mother."

Princess De'an Yu Zhu looked at the grey-haired lady in front of her in surprise. This was the emperor's sister. Although she was not a relative, she was also a serious and titled princess. Next to her were Princess Runan and Mrs. Xu.

Yu Zhu quickly bowed and apologized: "It's all my fault that I wanted to see the young master so much. I'm really sorry."

Princess De'an felt like a kindly old man. She actually picked up Yuzhu with her own hands, took her hand and said, "Why is this child so reserved? How can a woman not like children, especially a new daughter-in-law? There is no need to be embarrassed.

"

Princess Runan also smiled and nodded, pointed at the door and said with a smile: "Look, the child is here."

Yuzhu was a little embarrassed by being held by the hand, so he broke away to see the newborn baby. The nanny smiled and gently held up the red swaddling clothes, only to see a little baby with a red face and very light eyebrows.

, the fetal hair is very thick, and the delicate outline of the face can easily tell that the future appearance will be extremely outstanding.

I took out a small sapphire Ruyi from the cuff that was as warm and transparent as water. It was tied with a fine red velvet thread. The color was in sharp contrast. It was held in Yuzhu's pink and milky white hand. It had a faint halo.

It's so endearing. Even the swaddled baby was attracted to it and looked over with its dark eyes.

"Let the children wear the baubles and play with them. There will be too many people to give them away later." Yu Zhu smiled and handed the jade to the maid next to him.

Mrs. Xu looked at her son tenderly, smiled at Yuzhu, and immediately ordered the maid to tie the jade to the young master, "You're so polite. This is the best Qiemo jade. I see you are very happy."

Having said that, Yu Zhu still carefully told him to remember the rope and not let his brother swallow it.

"The child is so good-looking." Not to mention Ruqing, it was the first time for Yu Zhu to see such a small child. His nose felt sour, and he thought of Cui's child who was aborted in just over a month.

If a child is born, it will be like this. He will slowly grow white and tender, and he will be able to call himself "sister"...

Yu Zhu carefully stretched out his index finger, gently touched the baby's forehead with his soft fingertips, and blinked hard to force back the tears.

"The mouth is like my mother's, so delicate." Yu Zhu visually inspected that the child's eyes were not small, and he probably inherited his father's peach blossom eyes, so he picked a mouth and said.

Princess Runan came up to him with a smile, "I think so. His eyes and nose are like his father's, and his mouth is like his mother's."

After standing around for a while, the child fell asleep, clutched the red woolen thread and fell asleep.

The princess ordered the wet nurse to carry the child down, and smiled at Yu Zhu: "We can't be lazy anymore. Many guests are coming outside. Let's go out to greet them first. How about you stay here and talk to my wife? She just woke up."

, I won’t be able to sleep for a while.” There was a hint of intimacy in his words.

Yuzhu thought there were red beans outside, so he smiled and agreed. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and give rewards. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
