Now that Yu Caijiao is pregnant with a baby, she has grasped Madam Xiao's weak spot.

As long as she makes a fuss, Old Madam Xiao will definitely agree.

"It's okay." Xiao Cheng curled the corners of his mouth. He was in a good mood today.

"Let's go back home." Yu Caiwei turned and walked towards the Hou Mansion. Xiao Cheng immediately followed her. Today, she finally did not push him away again.

Before the two of them entered the mansion, they saw the nanny who followed Madam Xiao waiting at the door. Yu Caiwei had a bad feeling.

Could it be that Yu Caijiao has already made a fuss?

"Princess Consort, the old lady has something to say to you." When the nanny saw Yu Caiwei getting off the carriage, she immediately went to greet her.

Well, now it’s time to set some rules for her.

Xiao Cheng frowned, "I'll go with you."

The nanny immediately bowed to him and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to go. The old lady just wants to have a private conversation with the Crown Prince's Consort. She will not embarrass her."

The smile on Yu Caiwei's face was a little stiff. What kind of personal words were these? It was obvious that she was trying to preach.

It seems that Yu Caijiao was one step ahead of her and had already filed the lawsuit.

With Madam Xiao by her side, she has a backer, so she can naturally use the child in her belly to threaten them.

Cry, make a fuss, and then hang yourself. This trick works every time.

"Prince, I'll go first." Yu Caiwei spoke slowly, and then followed the nanny to the backyard.

In Chaohui Hall, Old Madam Xiao's face was not good. When she saw Yu Caiwei coming in, she just curled up the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.

"sit down."

Just as Yu Caiwei was about to salute, she was interrupted by Madam Xiao's words. She finished saluting before sitting down.

She sat properly with her hands on her knees. It seemed like she was really going to be scolded today.

"Caiwei, Cheng'er is in love with you. I am happy that your couple is loving and harmonious. But now that Caijiao is pregnant, you should let Cheng'er spend more time with her."

As expected, Yu Caijiao filed a complaint.

Yu Caiwei could already remember what she had said to the old lady. She was already very familiar with Yu Caijiao.

The two of them were entangled in two lives, and she knew her temperament and character very well.

"Grandma is right." Yu Caiwei nodded immediately. Since everything had been said by Old Madam Xiao, she didn't know what to say, so she just agreed.

Today's events were completely out of her control. If Yu Caijiao offended Shang Yu, Xiao Cheng would also be excluded in the court.

After all, she did help the Hou family.

"Cai Jiao told me about what happened today. If you don't protect her outside, and if outsiders spread that there is discord in the backyard of the Marquis' Mansion, it will really bring shame to the Marquis' Mansion." Old Madam Xiao sighed and clapped her hands on the table.

There are only two people in this prince's backyard. It is really unpleasant to hear such a quarrel spread out.

Now that this old woman is still in the mansion, wouldn't outsiders think that she is not managing the household well?

Yu Caiwei stood up and walked up to Old Madam Xiao and told her everything.

"Grandma, Shang Yu is not a good person, and Caiwei doesn't want to cause trouble for the Hou Mansion." She really couldn't help it. If she didn't explain, this bad hat would really be put on her head.

It was clearly Yu Caijiao's fault outside and had nothing to do with her.

If she didn't step forward to resolve the situation, things would only become more embarrassing at the Collection of All Things today.

"Caiwei, you are a good child. Caijiao's temperament is different from yours, but she is also a straightforward child."

Old Madam Xiao didn't know what to say for a moment. The two of them spoke differently in front of her, and she didn't know whose side to stand on.

"Grandma said so."

Yu Caiwei nodded slightly. Madam Xiao was old, so she just needed to listen to these words.

"Caijiao is pregnant now, you should give in to her in everything. The child is the legitimate son of the Marquis's family, and will naturally be raised by you in the future." Old Madam Xiao spoke to comfort her. On the one hand, she was speaking for Yu Caijiao, and on the other hand, she was also raising Yu Caiwei's position.

No matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, it will be registered under her name as the mistress of the house in the future.

The safe birth of the child can be regarded as a positive sign for her.

Yu Caiwei felt a little unhappy, but she remained calm.

She folded her hands on her knees, and the box at the cuffs hurt her hands a little.

"Grandma, Caiwei brought you a good thing today. Would you like to see it?" Yu Caiwei said with a smile. She almost forgot about it.

Today, Madam Xiao asked the nanny to wait for her at the door. As soon as she returned home, she was called here. She must be taught a lesson, and maybe even punished.

After all, Madam Xiao was trying to vent Yu Caijiao's anger. If she didn't pretend to do so, she would make a fuss again tomorrow and it would be difficult to resolve.

The child in Yu Caijiao's belly is her golden ticket to immunity from death, and she can do whatever she wants.

"What?" Old Madam Xiao frowned. She was just about to ask her to go to the ancestral hall.

Yu Caiwei opened the box, and the purple jade earrings were shining inside.

"Where did this thing come from?" Old Madam Xiao picked up the jade pendant and looked at it, then joy appeared in her eyes.

The quality of this jade pendant is very good, it is a good thing.

Yu Caiwei then took a look at the accessories on Old Madam Xiao. Although they were all jewels, there was no one who would dislike this jade.

Even if you don't wear jade on a daily basis, it's good to keep it as a treasure, and leave it as a commemoration for future generations.

"Does grandma like it?" Yu Caiwei curled the corners of her mouth, but she didn't intend to say it.

The purple jade from the Wanwuji Collection is very precious. Unless one is from a noble family like Shang Yu, how can ordinary people afford it?

Although her dowry was worth a lot of money, she had not touched anything in it.

"This purple jade is extremely rare and is probably worth a lot of money."

Old Madam Xiao naturally liked it, but this thing was expensive and probably rare in the palace. She was also afraid that other troubles would arise because of such a valuable thing.

"Don't worry, grandma. This thing is from my mother's family. If you like it, Caiwei will let you wear it."

After Yu Caiwei finished speaking, she put it on Old Madam Xiao. She was very careful in her actions, fearing that she would displease Old Madam Xiao.

Madam Xiao has lived for so many years, so she can naturally tell the good from the bad.

"You are such a thoughtful child. Why don't you buy some jewelry for yourself when you go out today?" Old Madam Xiao couldn't stop smiling, and Yu Caiwei looked even more satisfied in her eyes.

Although she did some things wrong, she was generally sensible and a good child.

"I bought a lot. Today I mainly bought some things for my grandmother. It can also be considered as a way to add to her longevity."

These words touched Mrs. Xiao's heart, and she took Yu Caiwei's hand and patted it.

"You are more thoughtful than Cheng'er. You are really a good child." Old Madam Xiao praised her highly and completely forgot about Yu Caijiao. She even invited her to stay for dinner before letting her leave.

Yu Caiwei flattered Mrs. Xiao very well and made her very happy.

"Grandma, please rest early. Caiwei will go back first." Yu Caiwei turned and left, then sighed.
