With Mother Wen standing by to persuade her, she thought about Biyu's belly getting bigger and bigger every day. She had always been fond of Biyu, and the inability of Zhao Ma and Lin Biru to do things really had nothing to do with Biyu.
For the sake of inheriting the incense of the Chen family, the old lady suppressed her anger and did not punish Zhao Ma.
Although she did not punish Mother Zhao, when the old lady was angry, she never forgot to say a few harsh words, which were within the range that Mother Zhao could bear.
In fact, when she quietly went to find Wen's mother with the money that night, she was extremely reluctant.
Her original intention was to just take some money out to express her gratitude to Wen's mother, as an apology for adding insult to injury.
Unexpectedly, her daughter Biyu forced her to take out most of the savings she and her husband had saved, and the mother and daughter personally gave the money to Zhao's mother.
Mother Zhao, that’s so distressing!
She and her husband had worked hard for most of their lives, but Wen's mother got all the money in vain. How could she be willing to accept it?
But just when she was feeling distressed and being scolded by the old lady, the effectiveness of the money became apparent.
Wen's mother helped her easily persuade the old lady.
Especially in the past few days, Mother Wen has repeatedly stopped the old lady from getting angry with her, and Mother Zhao feels that the money is well spent!
She told Biyu that Wen's mother had defended her again today.
Biyu nodded, "Mom, look, I told you not to be stingy before, what about now?"
"You are still smart and foresight, Biyu!" Zhao Ma nodded.
Her daughter is not like her dull father, which is what makes her happiest.
With her daughter here, Ma Zhao feels that she truly has someone to rely on.
Biyu looked at Zhao's mother, "Mom, you must remember this beauty incident. In the future, in front of the old lady, you must not take the initiative to take the lead in everything!"
"You were able to escape this disaster, in addition to Mother Wen's kind words to persuade the old lady, and the child in my belly who revealed the truth."
"If it weren't for the child and her beauty that cost the old lady so much money, our whole family would definitely be packed up and sold by the old lady!"
Speaking of this, Biyu felt lingering fear.
She was also secretly grateful that she had made the decision to have a baby early.
Otherwise, given that the uncle was frequently seduced by Zhou Yao, if she had followed the steps, she would not be pregnant now.
With children around, she has the best amulet.
Zhao's mother nodded, "Mom knows, and I will never venture in again."
She used to be a little arrogant, but after what happened with Beauty, she understood.
She and the Lin family, as a big family, have been serving tea and water all their lives!
They have no talent for business!
Biyu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her mother had really learned from her experience and reflected seriously this time.
"I heard that the second lady went to Tingfeng Yuan today. Mom, please help me get ready. I'm going to visit the princess."
"Let me tell you, there is no need to visit the princess's child. The old lady doesn't care about it, so you shouldn't join in the fun."
Zhao's mother said, "Besides, you are still pregnant. If you go to Tingfeng Yuan and you are bumped into by the child again, you may cause fetal infection..."
"Mom," Biyu looked at her mother, who was still a little enlightened just now, but now she was back to her old ways, and she said helplessly, "Can you take a longer view?"
"Why... long term?" Zhao Ma didn't understand.
She only knew that the mansion was in a panic right now and the old lady was very irritable. She should not get close to the princess now to avoid causing the old lady's dissatisfaction again.
"My mother!"
Biyu sighed, "You only think that you messed up Beauty Face, and you are afraid of making the old lady angry again, but have you ever thought that the princess came to settle the matter with Beauty Face in the end?"
"That's because the status of the princess is different. She has the support of the Queen Mother and a background in the palace. Who dares to do anything to her?"
"What you said is on point," Biyu said. "It is precisely because of this that I want to visit the princess."
"The princess settled the trouble caused by Beauty Face, didn't she help you and Biru?"
Even if Biyu talks about this, Zhao Ma still can’t understand?
"I understand when you say that. You should indeed visit the princess."
Biyu nodded, "In addition, the princess persuaded the old lady to give me the southwest courtyard, so I should also go and express my thanks to the princess!"
"Just go ahead. What gifts do you want to give the princess? I'll prepare them for you right now!"
Biyu said, "There must be nothing lacking in the princess's beautiful clothes and food. You just need to look at the careful preparations so that you can see that we are attentive!"
"Okay, I'll go get ready..."
When Zhao's mother went to prepare the gifts, she asked what the second lady Qin Wan had given her.
After learning that Qin Wan had given the child toys, she prepared longevity locks and other items.
This kind of thing should have been prepared by the elders of the house, such as the old lady.
But the old lady hated the child, and Su Nianyun forced her to pay back the money within half a month, so naturally she would not ask the child.
Therefore, Zhao Ma prepared the longevity lock and asked Biyu to take it with her.
When Lin Biyu took the brocade box and walked to Tingfeng Courtyard, Zhou Yao, who had been listening secretly in the corner, appeared.
The conversation between mother and daughter in the house was clearly heard by Zhou Yao outside the window.
"Hmph, if you want to consolidate your status by currying favor with the princess, you are really thinking too much!" Zhou Yao had a disdainful expression on her face.
"Aunt Zhou, since you know everything about Lin Biyu's child...why haven't you taken any action yet?"
Next to Zhou Yao, there is the delicate figure of Bai He.
Ever since the old lady forcibly fed her with medicine that left her without a child, her health seemed to have deteriorated a lot with the child's departure.
However, it was clear that she was devastated by the loss of her child, but the second lady still refused to let her rest and continued to make her work in the kitchen.
The second master went to the academy and there was no one to make decisions for her, so Bai He had to go back to the kitchen and do the most menial job.
She was in poor health, and after being unable to do any work in the kitchen for a while, she was so tired that her back ached.
She is only less than twenty years old.
Fortunately, Zhou Yao sympathized with her and always asked Bai He to send some soup to her, so as to give Bai He a chance to rest.
This is also considered as Bai He's reward for revealing the secret to her.
Facing Bai He's question, Zhou Yao shook her head, "You can't rush this kind of thing, you have to wait..."
"What are you waiting for?" Bai He wondered.
"Wait for a chance to hit the target with one hit and make sure the opponent won't stand up again!"
"But when will this wait?" Bai He didn't have the patience.
She was the most miserable among the first-class girls in the Chen family, and she couldn't wait for Biyu to be as miserable as her, so that she wouldn't be alone.
"Biyu's child has just taken shape now. Doesn't the old lady like Biyu's child very much?"
Zhou Yao's eyes flickered, "Let's wait until she gives birth to the child, let the old lady get close enough to the child, and then expose this secret..."
"At this time, it has hit both Biyu and the old lady. What do you think?"
After hearing Zhou Yao's plan, Bai He whispered, "What a kill two birds with one stone!"
She looked at Zhou Yao with eyes filled with admiration, "Aunt Zhou, you are so scheming!"
In Bai He's view, "good intentions" is a word of praise.
"A good scheming?" Zhou Yao said, "My scheming was not forced out of me by the old lady."
"If the old lady was willing to let me enter the mansion, Biyu would not be as unscrupulous as she is now in getting pregnant and grabbing her status. Maybe you wouldn't have lost the second master's child..."
Bai He's face turned gloomy, "I really wish time would pass faster. I can't wait for the day when Biyu gives birth to a baby!"
She hated Biyu, and she hated the old lady even more.
If according to Aunt Zhou's method, she can really kill two birds with one stone, then she should be patient and wait.
Therefore, what the two women who share the same hatred hope most now is that the child in Biyu's belly is well and is born smoothly!
