Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

Father He supported Bai Lian and left Chen Lerong's yard.

When the two disappeared at the door, He Shuzhen could no longer suppress her anger. She grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground with a distorted expression: "All in vain." The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was strange: "Did Bai Lian know that there was something wrong with the tea?"

"No way!" Chen Lerong replied: "I was sitting here, staring at Bai Lian the whole time. She never left my sight. How could she know that safflower was put in the tea?"

"But her behavior is very strange." He Shuzhen calmed down and thought carefully about Bai Lian's performance at the dinner table.

"Whether she knows it or not, our plan has failed this time, and it will be difficult to encounter such an opportunity next time," Chen Lerong said dejectedly.

"Don't be discouraged. Bai Lian is just pregnant and she has been living in the He Mansion. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future." He Shuzhen had no intention of letting Bai Lian go just like that.

"That's it for today. You're already married. You can't stay out all the time. You'd better go back early."

He Shuzhen did not refute. She was also afraid of gossip. The four concubines in the Liu Mansion were not so easy to deal with. "I will go back first today. If there is anything, please let the servants inform me."

"Okay." Chen Lerong saw He Shuzhen off and met Bai Lian who was walking in the garden.

He's father was out for something and was not with Bai Lian. She stopped pretending and showed a mocking smile on her face: "Did you just send the second young lady out of the house?"

Chen Lerong's expression was not very good: "What does it have to do with you?"

"Keep your voice down, don't scare the baby in my belly." Bai Lian deliberately kept a distance from Chen Lerong and said in a sarcastic tone.

Chen Lerong completely exploded: "The baby in your belly is only a month old, and the fetus hasn't even formed yet, how could you be scared?"

"That's not necessarily true." Bai Lian was about to leave, but when she thought of the incident with the mother and daughter using safflower, she turned around and said, "Be smarter about drugging next time, or we'll be working in vain again."

"You..." Chen Lerong's face changed and her body trembled uncontrollably: "How did you know this? What makes me curious is why you didn't expose us in front of Mr. He."

"Telling the master about this will do more harm than good. There is nothing wrong with the baby in my belly. Even if the master knows, he will not punish you severely. Why should I be the bad guy?"

Chen Lerong snorted coldly: "You are quite good at pretending, so remember to protect yourself, because I will do it again next time."

After entering He's house, Bai Lian was ready for a fight. Just in case, she cooked all her meals in the small kitchen.

Chen Lerong wanted to give her medicine but had no place to put it: "You are welcome anytime."

"I've never seen an aunt as arrogant as you." Chen Lerong was annoyed by Bai Lian's arrogance: "I am the mistress of the He Mansion after all."

"The master is not here, so we don't need to pretend to be harmonious." After saying that, Bai Lian ignored Chen Lerong and left.

Chen Lerong was so angry that she screamed loudly on the spot: "You bitch, I'm not done with you. One day you will fall into my hands."

……

He Shuzhen returned to the mansion and saw servants busying around in and out. She grabbed the servant who ran past her and asked, "What happened in the mansion?"

"Mrs. Zhu's fetus is moving. She has started giving birth. The old lady and the young master are both there to watch over her."

He Shuzhen felt very uncomfortable. Her stomach had not moved for such a long time. She let go of the servants and went to Aunt Zhu's yard.

The small courtyard was crowded with people. The old lady sat there anxiously. Liu Chen was a father for the first time and was extremely nervous.

The other three concubines stood quietly by.

He Shuzhen walked to Liu Chen's side and asked, "Why is Aunt Zhu giving birth suddenly?"

"She accidentally stepped on a stone while walking and fell to the ground, which caused her miscarriage. She gave birth more than ten days early."

He Shuzhen really wanted to leave, but she was the lady of the Liu family and the baby was Liu Chen’s first child, so she could only stay here.

The old lady sitting there was furious when she saw He Shuzhen: "Where did you go yesterday? Why didn't you come back at night?"

"My mother asked me to go home yesterday for something, and it was too late so I didn't come back." He Shuzhen did not explain in detail.

"How can a married woman spend the night at her parents' house at will? Even if you have something urgent to do and need to stay at her parents' house, you should have informed them in advance."

He Shuzhen married into a wealthy and powerful family, so it was natural for her to do so. However, she married into the Liu family, which was not as good as the He family, and did not take the people in the Liu family seriously.

In front of the old lady, he suppressed his dissatisfaction in his heart: "It happened too suddenly, and I didn't have time to notify you. I will pay attention next time."

Seeing that He Shuzhen's attitude was relatively good, the old lady didn't say anything.

Aunt Zhu's screams continued in the room until dusk, when they stopped.

The midwife opened the door and ran out excitedly: "Congratulations, congratulations, Auntie has given the Liu family a little boy."

This made the old lady and Liu Chen very happy. They clasped their hands together and prayed to the sky.

The midwife smiled and said, "I'll go in and clean up the room first, you guys can come in later."

Everyone continued to wait in the yard anxiously.

He Shuzhen curled her lips in disdain. It was just a birth of a son. Why should she be so happy? She smelled the bloody smell floating in the yard and her face was full of disgust.

After the midwife and the maid had cleaned up the room, everyone went into the room to see Aunt Zhu and the child.

The old lady consoled him for a few words and couldn't wait to hold the baby. Her plump grandson made her smile from ear to ear: "Your belly is really doing well."

Aunt Zhu, who was lying on the bed, was very weak but very happy. Now that she had a son, she would have someone to rely on in the future.

He Shuzhen took a look and couldn't stand the laughter of the crowd, so she left the room without saying goodbye.

Aunt Lan noticed He Shuzhen's abnormality and knew that she must be feeling uncomfortable. She raised a faint smile and said, "Madam, the lady seems to have left unhappily."

"Don't pay attention to her. She can't have a child, so who can she blame?" The old lady was immersed in joy and did not care too much about He Shuzhen's rudeness.

Because Aunt Zhu gave birth to a son, during her confinement period, the old lady sent a lot of nutritional supplements, cloth and jewelry to her courtyard.

This made the other three concubines extremely envious, except He Shuzhen, who had a generous dowry.

He Shuzhen picked out a small gold safety lock and placed it in a red wooden box, waiting for Aunt Zhu to finish her confinement.

Holding the child in her arms, she handed the safety lock to Aunt Zhu and said a few words symbolically: "Thank you for your hard work. I hope you can continue to have children for the young master in the future."

Aunt Zhu, who had a son, became more confident and said with a slightly sarcastic tone: "Thank you, ma'am."
