After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine

Mrs. Shen also received the news that Shen Yunchu was pregnant and almost had a miscarriage.

She was so frightened that her legs went weak and she quickly called the coachman to take her to Zhao's house.

Zhao's mother was still cursing her eldest daughter for abandoning the mess and running away, but when she heard that Mrs. Shen had arrived, she hurried out to greet her.

"My dear, why are you here?" She smiled and reached out to hold Mrs. Shen's hand.

"I heard Yun Chu is pregnant and almost had a miscarriage? I was worried that she didn't have anyone to guide her, so I came to take a look."

Mrs. Shen withdrew her hand without leaving a trace.

Mother Zhao couldn't help but blame her eldest daughter again in her heart.

Why did she give birth to such a stupid thing?

The people in other people’s families are all caring and considerate, but the people in her family are just debt collectors!

"My dear relatives, that's perfect. I'm just about to go too. Let's go together!" She said with a smile.

"My dear relatives, Yun Chu is a blessed person. Look, she is pregnant right after entering the family. When my second son wins the title of the top scholar, she will be his wife. By then, she will enjoy endless wealth and splendor!"

When Mrs. Shen heard this, she smiled.

That's because her daughter is the most blessed one!

However, I just don’t know if this son-in-law can win three prizes in a row as my daughter said?

As soon as Shen Yunchu saw Mrs. Shen, tears couldn't help but flow down.

"Yun Chu, what's wrong? You're pregnant, you can't cry."

Mrs. Shen hurried over, hugged her daughter and comforted her.

Looking at her aggrieved daughter in her arms, she suddenly had an idea, "Did someone bully you?"

When Zhao's mother heard this, her heart began to beat fast, fearing that her second daughter-in-law would tell the truth.

"Ever since Yunchu married into our family, I have held my son in my hands for fear of him spoiling, and held him in my mouth for fear of him melting. How could I bear to bully him? Yunchu, I miss you now that I am a new mother!"

As Zhao's mother spoke, she stared at Shen Yunchu nervously.

When Shen Yunchu saw her mother-in-law's expression, she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

"Yes, mother, Yun Chu just misses you."

Mother Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Yun Chu, if there is anything you need from me, just let me know. I will definitely make sure you are plump and healthy."

Mrs. Shen looked her daughter around and saw that there was nothing unusual about her.

"My dear, let's have lunch at the mansion soon. I'll go and make arrangements so you two can have a good chat."

Mother Zhao was relieved and was about to leave.

As soon as Zhao's mother left, "Chunxiang, Xiaxiang, kneel down!" Mrs. Shen called out their names directly.

The two maids knelt down with a plop.

"Tell me, young lady, what happened? Tell me the truth!" Mrs. Shen said sternly with a straight face.

"Mother, don't embarrass them. Your daughter has her own plans. You two should get up and go out and guard the door."

The two maids responded, walked out and closed the door.

"Mother, I am responsible for this. I didn't even know I was pregnant. Even the doctor said it was too early and my pulse was not obvious. He said we need to check again in a few days to confirm."

"My husband hasn't taken the imperial examination yet, so I can't fall out with my in-laws for the time being."

"Don't worry, my daughter is not someone who can be manipulated by others. When the time comes, I will definitely make them pay double!"

The current emperor attaches great importance to filial piety. If there is a conflict between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, it will definitely affect Zhao Jingyan's career.

In order to become the top scholar's wife and crush others, she chose to endure.

When Zhao Jingyan becomes successful, she will deal with these evil spirits one by one.

"You!" Mrs. Shen poked Shen Yunchu on the forehead in disappointment.

"I asked you to choose the Prince of Qi's Mansion, but you refused and insisted on choosing such a poor family. You will suffer in the future."

Mrs. Shen got angry when she talked about this.

"Where is your son-in-law? Why don't I see him accompanying you?" Mrs. Shen's tone revealed dissatisfaction.

"He was here just now. He should be boiling medicine now, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jingyan walked in with a bowl.

"My dear, come here, the abortion-preserving medicine is ready."

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Mrs. Shen sitting beside the bed. He paused and walked over with his head held high.

"Give it to me." When Mrs. Shen saw her son-in-law like this, her dissatisfaction dissipated a little.

Shen Yunchu saw Zhao Jingyan standing there at a loss, and gave him a soothing smile.

"Husband, go and study. My mother is here with me."

Zhao Jingyan made up his mind and bowed to Madam Shen, "Then I'll trouble you, mother."

Mrs. Shen felt it was too much to bear watching her daughter happily drinking pregnancy-preserving medicine.

In the past, when I took medicine, I had to coax and give it candy, but now I can actually laugh while taking it.

"Why, did the son-in-law put sugar in it? Otherwise, let mother have a taste too."

When Shen Yunchu heard her mother teasing her, her face immediately turned red.

"Mother!" She drank the medicine in the bowl in one gulp and handed the bowl to Mrs. Shen.

"Why don't you go back home with your mother? It just so happens that your father is not at home, and your mother will feel lonely all alone."

The more Mrs. Shen talked about it, the more she thought it was a good idea.

"Mother, I won't go back. Aren't you trying to get well and give birth to a brother for me? Besides, I don't want to go back. As the old saying goes, if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog. Wherever my husband is, I will be there."

"What if that vixen seduces my husband when I'm not around? I have to stay with him and not go anywhere."

In this life, it was finally her turn to be extremely wealthy, and she didn't want to let others take advantage of it.

"It's okay if you don't go back with mother, but mother, please leave Nanny Shen here. Your wet nurse is useless. I will feel relieved if Nanny Shen takes care of you."

"Then what will you do? Father is not in the house, and if Nanny Shen leaves, you won't even have anyone to talk to."

"Either you go back to the Shen Mansion with your mother, or you stay with Nanny Shen to take care of you. There are two ways, choose one."

When Shen Yunchu saw that Mrs. Shen was very persistent, he agreed to keep Nanny Shen.

At worst, she could just find a reason to send Nanny Shen back after a few days.

"Mother, you came at the right time. A few days ago, the shopkeeper of Jiuweifang sent me the account book. Can you help me take a look? You know, I get a headache when I see the account book."

"You, that's great. Mother will explain it to you while I look at it. You should read the account book yourself to know if the people below are cheating."

Mrs. Shen was flipping through the account book while explaining the key points to Shen Yunchu.

"Wow, Jiuweifang is so profitable? No wonder Shen Yunjin wanted to take over this restaurant!"

Shen Yunchu was stunned when he heard that the monthly net income of Jiuweifang Restaurant was one thousand and two taels of silver.

The shopkeeper handed over a thick stack of banknotes, and she thought it was the profit of all the dowry shops.

She couldn't help but wonder why Shen Yunjin specifically asked for this restaurant?
