Shen Jingyi was playing with her bracelet absentmindedly while listening to Xia Zhu's report.

After a while, she slowly said, "Keep an eye on Cui Er for a while to see if she's trying to get information.

Or whether there are suddenly some jewelry or something like that on your body."

The two looked at each other and answered in unison: "Yes, concubine."

Shen Jingyi slept well all night. After getting up in the morning, she had breakfast and was supported by Xia Zhu and Dongmei to go to the main courtyard to pay her respects.

As for Nanny Qin and the others, Shen Jingyi gave them five days off so that they could go back and reunite with their families for a few days.

Today happens to be the 25th, a day to pay respects.

This seemed to be the second time she came to pay her respects since entering the mansion!

I'm quite looking forward to it, but I don't know if it will be the same as what is shown on TV.

After arriving at the main courtyard, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows to see that everyone was there, thinking that these people came really early, and it wasn't time yet!

She walked in slowly, holding her belly. When the people inside saw her, they all stood up and saluted.

"Sister Shen."

Shen Jingyi smiled and said, "Sisters, there's no need to be polite, get up!

You guys came really early, I was late. "

After she sat down, a maid served her tea.

Bai Zhi looked at the clothes on Shen Jingyi, her eyes full of curiosity and envy, and couldn't help asking: "Sister Shen's clothes are made of really beautiful material, I don't think I've seen them in Beijing!"

The fabric of the clothes Shen Jingyi was wearing today was exactly what they had bought in Guxi Town.

After the clothes were made, she liked them very much.

The fabric is soft and delicate, very comfortable to wear, and the patterns are unique and beautiful, making you love it.

Therefore, she bought a few more horses when she returned to the capital.

Hearing Bai Zhi's praise, she couldn't help but smile and explained, "We bought this fabric by chance when we passed by Guxi Town.

Coincidentally, we were resting there that day, so I thought of going out for a walk.

As I was walking, I entered a newly opened cloth shop and fell in love with this piece of fabric at first sight."

"Sister Shen, you are the best. As soon as you come here, you will have the opportunity to go out with the prince and gain more experience.

I have been in the palace for four years, and I have never seen the prince take anyone with him when he goes out on business."

Zheng K'er's tone was a little bitter.

Shen Jingyi looked at her and smiled, "Really? That means I entered the mansion at the right time! I have been very lucky since I was a child."

Tang Yurou also smiled and agreed, "I also think you bring good luck. You see, after you came, two children will be born in our house soon."

The most important thing is that she hadn't done anything when she first arrived, but Su Wan fell and the princess was also punished, so their lives became much better.

Shen Jingyi was amused by this, "Hahaha~~ I don't dare to take the credit for this, please don't put it on me."

Inside the room, Chu Mengyao sat in front of the mirror, staring blankly at the person in the mirror.

"Mammy, are you saying that I am old? Otherwise, why can't I keep the prince?"

I thought I could be affectionate with my husband last night, but I didn't expect that after he came out of the shower, we just said a few words and then he left.

She had obviously tried very hard to please him, but she still couldn't keep his heart.

Nanny Zhao looked at her master with pity.

To be honest, she didn't know what was wrong with the prince. He left his beautiful wife alone in the outer courtyard instead of sleeping with her.

However, since the princess was in this state now, she could only say nice words to coax her.

"My lady, you are not old, you are in your prime!

The prince may really have something to do. Just think about it, he has been away for several months, and there must be a lot of official business piled up in the study that needs to be dealt with.

I have to go to the palace to meet the emperor this morning and report my work, so I must sort it out first."

"Maybe you're right. This is the only way I can comfort myself now."

Chu Mengyao said this, forcing herself to cheer up and putting a dignified smile on her face again.

"Let's go! They should all be here. Even though it's boring, it's fun only the wife can watch."

As soon as Chu Mengyao finished speaking, Aunt Zhao beside her gently adjusted her clothes to ensure that she maintained a dignified posture.

She left the inner room and came into the hall.

As soon as everyone saw her, they immediately stopped talking, stood up respectfully and saluted her.

"I've met the princess."

Chu Mengyao had a faint smile on her lips, indicating that they didn't need to be polite, then she walked gracefully to the main seat and sat down.

She glanced around and said softly, "Sisters, you came really early today."

Then he looked at Concubine Shen and Concubine Liu and said with concern, "Concubine Shen, Concubine Liu, you two are both pregnant, you should get more sleep.

Even if you don't come, this princess won't blame you."

Shen Jingyi's face was full of smiles, and she replied gratefully: "Thank you for your concern, sister Princess. I went to bed early after returning home last night, and now I have had enough sleep, so I came here specially to join in the fun."

Chu Mengyao nodded gently, and then said with a hint of reproach: "That's good, you've worked hard, too, being pregnant and still having to run around with the prince."

After that, he blamed King Xuan, "Your Majesty, you are such a fool. Why didn't you send someone to send you back home in advance? After all, the outside world is not as comfortable as home."

Shen Jingyi hurriedly defended King Xuan: "You can't blame the prince for this, he's just too busy."

After hearing this, Chu Mengyao chuckled and said, "You are still speaking in his favor! Then let's not talk about him.

When you go back later, remember to bring some Gastrodia elata and bird's nest. Eating more bird's nest is good for you and your fetus."

Shen Jingyi quickly said gratefully: "Thank you, Princess Sister."

Chu Mengyao waved her hand, indicating that she was welcome, and said to Liu Ruoxue, "Concubine Liu, you should take some back with you as well."

Liu Ruoxue nodded happily, "Yes, thank you, Princess. I'm almost finished with the bird's nest I have."

Chu Mengyao had a gentle smile on her face and said softly, "You are pregnant with the prince's child. I am the child's legal mother, so it is my duty to care about you."

After that, she turned her gaze to Tang Yurou and asked with concern, "Concubine Tang, has Zi'an's winter clothes been delivered from the needlework room?"

Tang Yurou bowed slightly and replied softly, "Yes, I gave it to you! I gave it to you yesterday. It fits you perfectly."

Chu Mengyao nodded gently, with a satisfied look on her face, "That's good."

Then, she looked at Bai Zhi and Zheng Ke'er and asked softly, "What about you? Are there any servants in the mansion who are deducting your things?"

Bai Zhi and Zheng Ke'er quickly stood up, their eyes full of gratitude, and replied respectfully: "My princess, there are no more.

Since we disciplined those stubborn slaves last time, no one dares to deduct our things anymore."

Chu Mengyao nodded slightly, "That's good. If something like that happens again, come and tell me."

Bai Zhi and Zheng Ke'er nodded repeatedly in thanks, their gratitude evident in words.

Shen Jingyi felt tired just watching from the side. It really is not easy for this princess!

Although I have many dissatisfactions in my heart, I cannot show it, and I have to be generous and take care of everyone.

After chatting for a few more words, everyone dispersed.

Shen Jingyi took Xia Zhu and Dongmei for a leisurely walk outside before returning to her own yard.

As soon as I walked into the yard, Qiu Kui came over with a letter and handed it to me with both hands.

"Concubine, this was just sent by Minister Shen's residence."
