Thinking of the muddy white radish, Liu was furious and forced a smile to answer, "My daughter-in-law has given birth, and I gave the tonic to her for confinement."

"Oh? So you haven't eaten it yet?" Zhao Yang turned his head to look at the side and ordered: "Madam Tang, ask someone to prepare a few more carts of native ginseng and send them to them tomorrow."

"No, no, that's not necessary! I thank the princess for her kindness!"

The image of several carts of white radishes appeared in front of Liu, who was a little overwhelmed. What use would such worthless things be even if they were sent in dozens or hundreds of carts?

Nanny Tang covered her mouth with her hands and smiled, then stepped aside.

When Liu saw that a nanny dared to make fun of her, she looked slightly displeased.

Zhaoyang glanced at her and asked, "What brings you here today?"

"Nothing else, I just heard that the eldest princess will soon have a daughter-in-law, and I thought that we were sisters-in-law after all, so I came here to reminisce about the past."

Liu concealed her displeasure and put on a smile when facing Zhaoyang.

"Reminiscing about the past?" The man in the hall leaned back slightly, playing with his jade fingers, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Seeing that she seemed to want to know, Liu ignored the presence of Nanny Tang and other servants and took the lead in belittling Su He: "Princess, don't you know? Su He is just an abandoned wife that Yan Xiu didn't want. After the divorce, she dressed up all day long just to hook up with the powerful people in the capital. Whoever she could get would be Lord Lu!"

"Master Lu is related to our Lu family. How can I watch him being deceived by Su He?"

After Liu finished her nonsense, she glanced at Zhaoyang and saw that she drank a sip of tea calmly and showed no anger.

"Where did you hear that?" she asked.

"This is not just a rumor. It has spread everywhere. Su He has been married to my grandson for three years but has not gotten pregnant. Because her mistress gave birth to a child, she even wanted a divorce. During the divorce, she refused to serve her mother-in-law, and she even gave up everything, such as bringing water and feeding medicine! Such a woman, even if she is qualified to enter Lord Lu's presence, will only be a disaster and a calamity!"

How long have Su He and Lu Yanxiu been divorced?

More than half a year, but less than a year.

As a woman, if you don't fulfill your duties and maintain your innocence for your ex-husband, how dare you turn around and marry someone else?

Liu could vaguely remember the way Su He tore up the marriage certificate when she left the house, and she was extremely contemptuous. Besides, Liu Qiuqiu had no strong family background, no rich dowry, and she had given birth to a child with defects...

As they got along day by day, Liu's patience with her had already been exhausted. She was even worse than Su He.

"Disaster? Calamity?" Zhaoyang narrowed his eyes.

"Of course not! This is not nonsense. I have been with her for three years and I can figure out her personality. For the sake of Lord Lu's reputation, Princess, please don't allow such a woman to enter the palace..."

"The person my son has chosen is not someone a woman like you can gossip about. Come on, slap him in the face!"

As soon as Liu finished speaking, Zhaoyang gave an order, and her rebuke was like thunder in the hall!

After hearing so many words that belittled the young lady, Nanny Tang could no longer bear it. She walked forward in three or two steps, rolled up her sleeves, gritted her teeth, and mustered all her strength to hit her.

"Clap clap clap!"

He slapped him three times in one go.

"How dare you..."

Liu staggered and fell to the ground, covering her red face in amazement.

Nanny Tang rubbed her hands and sneered, "How dare you gossip about the young lady in the Princess's mansion? I think you are anxious to see the King of Hell!"

"I am the grandmother of a fifth-rank official after all. You beat me without any explanation. Do you want to get sued?" Liu asked harshly.

Nanny Tang laughed and thought it was the biggest joke in the world.

She leaned in close and told Liu: "You can report this to the emperor and let him judge whether he should beat you or not."

"you!"

Liu picked up her crutches and tremblingly got up from the ground. She turned to look at Zhaoyang who was watching the show with a clear conscience and asked sadly, "Su He is not a good person. She has been entangled with my grandson for many years. She has long forgotten about her innocence and virtue. How dare you let such a person be your daughter-in-law?"

Zhaoyang stood up, and the golden threads on his gorgeous clothes made Liu's eyes dazzled.

When she got to him, she spoke slowly, "If I hadn't married you for love, how could a vulgar person like you be qualified to be my sister-in-law? My son is about to get married, and anyone who obstructs him or is jealous of him must stand aside! If he messes up the wedding, I will skin him alive and leave him without a burial place!"

The last time she saw Zhaoyang so angry was when Lu Zhiping died and she left home with her dowry.

Liu took a step back shudderingly, her cloudy eyes revealing a sense of resentment. The next second, two tears came out. She wiped them away and said resentfully, "Princess, don't be angry. I am only doing this for the sake of your husband. After all, we were once a family. I just can't bear to see Su He marrying in and bullying you..."

"Oh, you're already being very kind by never coming to my house in your lifetime. Madam Tang, kick her out, and remember to have someone sweep the steps in front of the door. They're dirty."

Nanny Tang said yes.

Liu originally thought that bringing up Lu Zhiping would at least win her sympathy, but she was kicked out before she could finish her words. Nanny Tang pushed and shoved her out of the house. Standing on the steps at the door, she glanced at her and said, "The eldest princess has absolutely nothing to do with your Lu family. You old woman, don't come to get close to her in the future! It just so happens that these few days are the wedding day of my son, so I will generously give you some wedding candies. Don't show up again in the future!"

Nanny Tang took out a few wedding candies from her bosom and handed them to her with disdain, then told the servants to quickly close the door. Liu clutched a few wedding candies and felt her teeth itching in anger. She touched her left face which was still painful and hot, and cursed, "Lu Zhiping deserved to die. You deserved it for being a widow for so many years!"

The incident of Liu being slapped in the Princess's Mansion was intentionally passed on to Su He's ears by Qingyun.

At that time, she and Zhao Wanrong were choosing wedding dresses. They ordered two sets of similar looks and designs. Su He was not picky, as long as it was a wedding dress, she just wanted it to be auspicious and festive.

Pei Xia came in and reported, "Lord Lu sent someone to deliver something."

Su He asked her to bring it in.

A brand new wedding dress suddenly appeared on the nanmu presentation plate. It had a red background with gold embroidery and a pattern of blessing groups on the cuffs. It was covered with a peacock embroidered and gilded bridal shawl, which looked like flowing colorful clouds.

On one side of the wedding dress, there were delicate red flower ornaments and a phoenix crown with a pair of golden crabapple flowers.

The colors are bright and eye-catching.

Su He's eyes moved slightly, her fingers touched her wedding dress, and a strange feeling arose in her heart.
