Only then did everyone notice that Liang Yanbing's belly was slightly bulging.

Zheng Qiaoer liked the way this woman spoke, which was quick and sharp, and always stabbed people in the heart. Seeing that there was a good show to watch, she was not in a hurry to chase the annoying couple away, but warmly invited everyone to sit down and served tea, showing her hospitality.

Then he asked curiously, "How many children is Mrs. Gao pregnant with?"

Speaking of children, Liang Yanbing's eyes were so tender that tears were about to drip out of her eyes. "I already have three sons, so I want a daughter. My husband is also looking forward to having a daughter, so that we can truly have a 'good' character."

Shi Anxia couldn't help but laugh, "It doesn't matter if you can't make it into the word 'good', you can always make it into peace and prosperity for the four seasons."

Liang Yanbing opened her eyes wide, "You! How do you know?"

She did tell her husband privately that she wanted to have "four seasons of peace" and "four seasons of wealth", and she would not bother with that anymore even if she gave birth to a son.

Shi Anxia smiled slightly and said, "I guessed."

"Then princess, can you guess whether I'm going to have a boy or a girl?" Liang Yanbing felt inexplicably that although the princess in front of him was young, why was it that they felt like old friends at first sight?

Shi Anxia said in an uncertain tone, "It's still a son...right?"

Don't be too sure when you speak, otherwise if someone asks you how you knew, how will you answer?

Sure enough, Zheng Qiaoer and Liang Yanbing were both asking, "How did you know?"

Shi Anxia could only laugh, "I guessed." He brought out Mr. Yang Xuan to block the knife, "You have all heard of Mr. Yang Xuan, right? He taught me how to read faces. People like my aunt and Madam Gao are destined to give birth to sons."

Liang Yanbing really believed it, "Princess, can you let me take another good look? What if I can't see clearly and it's a daughter? I want a daughter. A soft and delicate little girl would be great."

Shi Anxia shook his head and said modestly, "I am only half-baked, you can just listen to it for fun, don't take it seriously."

But Liang Yanbing took it seriously, "Actually it would be nice to have a son. My three sons are all grown up, so it's much easier to let them play with their younger brother."

Liang Yanzhi had been unable to get a word in, and finally found an opportunity, her voice became so sour and sharp, "Brother-in-law doesn't feel sorry for you. Don't you know that women are walking on the edge of hell when they give birth? He's just afraid that..."

Liang Yanbing frowned, "I like children myself, I can't blame my husband. As early as when we gave birth to our first child, my husband said he didn't want to have any more children."

Zheng Qiaoer smiled and said, "Mr. Gao is indeed not as considerate as my second brother. My second brother has many children in the backyard, which saves my second brother and his wife the trouble of giving birth to a child themselves."

This really touched Liang Yanzhi's sore spot.

In the first year that Liang Yanzhi entered the Duke of Huguo's mansion, she accidentally swallowed the medicine that Zhu gave to Zheng Qiaoer, and her child died in her stomach.

The most horrifying thing is that she can no longer have children.

Liang Yanzhi cried and wailed, and from then on she felt that her mother-in-law Zhu was at fault.

Zhu was afraid that she would spread rumors outside, and since she was the one who hurt others, she ended up hurting herself, so she took out all her anger on Zheng Qiaoer, and finally used the "Broken Bone Incense".

As for Liang Yanzhi, her daughter-in-law, Zhu promised that she would firmly establish her position as the Crown Prince's wife. All children born to the women in her son's backyard must be registered under her name.

Things have come to this point, it is useless for Liang Yanzhi to hate her mother-in-law, so she might as well grab some benefits.

Old wounds and years of accumulated hatred were suddenly and unceremoniously torn open in front of her by Zheng Qiaoer.

Liang Yanzhi was so angry that her face turned blue, but she couldn't say anything.

A flame of jealousy ignited in her heart. She spat in her heart and continued to be sarcastic about her sister, "You are so old, and you are still running around with a child. Be careful not to have a miscarriage."

Liang Yanbing sat on the chair and smiled, "Sister, you are kind-hearted. You still care about me after all these years. Don't worry about that. Your brother-in-law will take good care of me."

Liang Yanzhi's ears were buzzing, and she didn't want to listen. She and Tang Chuwen said goodbye angrily, "Sister, please come and talk to me when you have time. My husband and I won't bother you."

Liang Yanbing did not respond, but just lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

Reminiscing about the past? There is no more to reminisce about.

Zheng Qiaoer raised her eyes calmly, her tone very indifferent, "I'll let today's matter go for your sister's sake. If you act wildly in my Duke of the Guardian's Mansion again in the future, I will send you directly to the government for punishment."

Liang Yanzhi was extremely embarrassed and hated Zheng Qiaoer for humiliating her in front of her sister.

Then Zheng Qiaoer continued, "Also, Chu Yue will not marry the Prince of Changping, and no one can force her."

Tang Chuwen was so angry that he finally found someone to vent his anger on. He pointed at the girl hiding in the corner and said, "Tang Chuyue, you'll regret it sooner or later if you listen to others' advice!"

Tang Chuyue then walked out from the shadows in the corner and looked up to meet her brother's poisonous gaze, "From now on, I won't have to worry about you, brother and sister-in-law."

She knew that once these words were spoken, the relationship between brother and sister would be severed from then on.

I can't rely on it anyway, so let it break.

As soon as the two left, Tang Chuyue thanked her sister-in-law and the princess' niece and took her leave.

Walking down the winding corridor of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, Tang Chuyue heaved a heavy sigh of relief, "Ying'er, I wronged you that day. It is true that only my sister-in-law and the princess are my real supporters."

Ying'er responded happily, "Miss, I feel relieved if you think so."

She was really afraid that the girl would do something reckless and cut off the last bit of connection with the Protectorate Mansion. Fortunately, the girl was smart, otherwise she would not know that she was sold out by the second and third young masters.

The next day, Tang Chuwen heard that the director of the Ministry of Works' Construction Supervision Office was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice awaiting trial, and he was so frightened that his heart was trembling.

Fortunately, he acted slowly, otherwise he would have been implicated by the director right after joining the Ministry of Industry as a deputy director and hadn't gained anything yet.

He felt a little sad for a moment, thinking that his sister was right to insist on not marrying the Prince of Changping. So he bought a lot of silk and satin and sent them to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, saying that it was a gift from his brother to his sister, and that there was no overnight grudge between the family.

Tang Chuyue returned without moving, closed the door and turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.

The weasel came to the chicken to pay New Year's greetings, and it was obvious that he had no good intentions. Who knows where he will use her to exchange for favors next time.

Tang Chuyue was not stupid, she had a very active mind. She drew inferences from one instance and drew a conclusion that she should hold on to her niece, the princess, and never do the wrong thing again.

She was in no hurry to get married. As long as her sister-in-law didn't chase her away, she would stay in the yard quietly and not go anywhere.

She also cut off contact with her former best friends, cleaned out a lot of things, and sent Ying'er to deliver them to everyone one by one.

Ying'er was a good person, and whenever someone asked her, "What does your master mean by this?"

She answered swiftly, "My master said that we will never meet again if we are too far apart. Our past friendship is in vain. When we meet again, we are just strangers. Let's just pretend that we have never been friends." After she finished speaking, she bowed and retreated in a measured manner.

After delivering gifts door to door and talking for a while, this small circle also exploded. Everyone said that Tang Chuyue was sick and that she must be crazy without the support of her parents.

Tang Chuyue was not crazy, but Princess Changping was going crazy with anxiety.
