Chen Yayuan knew that what Fu Zhao said was for her own good.
After she sat down on the edge of the bed, she held Fu Zhao's hand and said with a wry smile: "I know that too, but my mother-in-law said that I am pregnant with twins, so I have to be more careful. Fei He is also watching me day and night.
Still, I don’t have much chance to move around.”
Fu Zhao felt an inexplicable anger in her heart, and she restrained herself and said: "Fei He is just a maid, how can she be your master? You said you want to get out of bed and move around, how can she still hold you down?
?”
Chen Yayuan couldn't laugh anymore and sighed: "You don't know what my mother-in-law is like, that's all. Anyway, the baby is about to be born, so I'll just endure it a little longer."
Fu Zhao felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart. She frowned and said nothing more.
After Chen Yayuan lay down, she covered Chen Yayuan with the quilt and went out quietly.
Walking outside the house, Su Yurong saw that there was no smile on Fu Zhao's face, and he was even a little cold, so she asked: "Cousin, what are you thinking about?"
Fu Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm just thinking about the second sister. The second sister's temperament has always been like this."
Blindly tolerant, let a servant bully you to your head.
Su Yurong said: "Yes, my second cousin is very nice. When I first arrived at the Hou Mansion, my second cousin stayed with me for several days because she was afraid that I wouldn't be used to it."
Fu Zhao let out a breath of turbid air, and his heart felt as if a stone was pressing down on him.
But, she is an outsider after all.
She lowered her eyes and urged: "Where are you playing hide and seek? Take me there quickly."
"Okay." Su Yurong thought of business and hurriedly led Fu Zhao to the garden.
With Fu Zhao watching from the side, Chen Yaying must be a little wary and not go too far.

Si Qi and Fei He went to the carriage to carry supplements to send to Mrs. Shao.
Mrs. Shao knew about it, and even though she was still ill, she still let Si Qi in.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw closed windows and a strong smell of medicine.
Siqi lowered his head, not daring to look around.
She lowered her head and couldn't see what was going on inside, but she could hear the voices inside.
Inside, besides Mrs. Shao, there were others.
"Aunt, please take another sip." The young woman with a good face was holding a medicine bowl in her hand and was giving medicine to Mrs. Shao.
Although she was ill, Mrs. Shao was still in good spirits. She pushed the woman's hand away and smiled kindly: "My illness is mostly cured and I don't want to drink this bitter medicine anymore."
"Auntie, I'll bring you some candied fruits."
Mrs. Shao smiled and nodded.
The woman put down the medicine bowl and went out. As soon as she walked out of the inner room, she saw a strange maid.
She looked at Siqi for a few moments, and then said to Fei He: "Fei He, why are you here? But what happened to my cousin?"
At Chen Yayuan's place, Fei He, who had always had a cold face, actually smiled in front of this woman, and it was a flattering smile.
Si Qi looked at Fei He's smiling face and was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.
She thought that Fei He always had a bad face and would never smile to anyone.
Fei He felt blessed and said: "Hello, cousin, this is the maid from the young lady's natal family. It is said that the prince's wife brought the supplements to our lady, and the servant brought her to deliver the supplements."
Upon hearing this, Siqi opened the red box he was holding in his arms, revealing top-quality ginseng wrapped in red silk.
Even those who are ignorant know that this ginseng is worth a lot of money.
Siqi said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "This is my master's idea, please accept it, madam."
Mrs. Shao's voice came from inside, "Thank you very much for your eldest wife's kindness, so I will accept it. My health is really not up to par, otherwise, I would have to get up to see your eldest wife."
While Mrs. Shao was talking, the young woman heard some noise in the yard and went out quietly.
Si Qi glanced at the woman and thought it was really weird.
This woman's identity is that Fei He calls her cousin, but she is in the Shao family and in front of Mrs. Shao, and she is as familiar with her as if she were at home.
If others didn't say anything, Siqi would definitely think of her as a young lady from the Shao Mansion.
The woman went out for a moment, and suddenly the sound of sobbing came from outside.
Through a window, I could hear clearly.
Mrs. Shao, who was still too sick to get out of bed, suddenly got off the bed and walked out quickly.
Siqi was startled by Mrs. Shao's sudden movement.
She saw that Mrs. Shao's legs and feet were very neat. Except for the cloth wrapped around her forehead, there was no sign of illness.
After Mrs. Shao came out, she remembered that there were outsiders. She coughed twice in embarrassment and said deliberately tiredly: "Why are you crying, Sister Shan? I have to go out and take a look. Fei He, please stay with this girl first."
Waiting in the house, you can entertain her well."
Fei He responded and took a step forward to hold Si Qi's arm, as if he was afraid that Si Qi would see something when he went out.
Mrs. Shao then went out with the help of the maid.
After she walked out of the house, she pushed away the maid's hand, walked a few steps quickly, and said sternly in a low voice: "Why did you make Sister Shan cry again? She is your cousin after all, you give in."
Isn’t she better?”
Standing opposite the crying Lu Shan was Mrs. Shao's son and Chen Yayuan's husband, Shao Geng.
Shao Geng is weak and has the appearance of a scholar. At this moment, he is embarrassed and doesn't know where to put his hands and feet.
Hearing Mrs. Shao's reprimand, he felt even more innocent, "I don't know why my cousin is crying."
Lu Shan wiped her tears, forced a smile, and said pitifully: "It's not my cousin's fault, it's the sand that got into my eyes."
Mrs. Shao glared at Shao Geng. She walked to Lu Shan and said softly: "Sister Shan, tell me the truth. What is going on?"
Lu Shan pursed her lips, "I want my cousin to take me out to buy rouge. My cousin is not free..."
Mrs. Shao glared at Shao Geng again and said angrily: "It's just such a trivial matter. If you don't agree, what kind of gentleman do you think you are? Take Sister Shan out now!"
Lu Shan's eyelashes trembled and she looked at Shao Geng hopefully.
Shao Geng scratched his head and said hurriedly: "Not today, my friend is here, and I have to entertain him. I'll tell my mother to prepare more good dishes in the kitchen, and he wants to stay for dinner."
After saying that, Shao Geng ran away.
Looking at Shao Geng's back, Lu Shan's eye circles turned red again.
Mrs. Shao comforted her quickly: "Don't think so wildly. He's going to be a father soon, so his heart must be different. Slowly, he will definitely be able to accept you."
Lu Shan hummed and said softly: "I don't ask for anything. As long as I can serve my cousin and cousin, I'll be satisfied."
