Chapter 165: Preparing to Return to the Palace
Tong Manjiao lived in Tong's Mansion for a few days, and faintly became anxious, Yang Zhimin actually didn't have the intention of sending someone to urge him to go back.
Zhou also felt that something was wrong, how could a pregnant person live back to his parents' house, and her husband's family didn't move at all.
"Is the side concubine up?"
Zhou stood at the gate of the courtyard and smiled at the mother-in-law guarding the door, these are all people from the palace, and Zhou dare not slack off.
"Madame, let's go in, the side concubine has already gotten up, and she is having breakfast."
Fei'er heard a voice at the gate of the courtyard, and as soon as she got out of the house, she saw Zhou standing there talking to her mother-in-law, and hurriedly welcomed people in.
Tong Manjiao was bored poking a scallion oil flower roll, she had hidden something in her heart for the past two days, where did she have an appetite, every time she ate it for the sake of the child, and she couldn't taste good or bad.
Yang Zhimin's indifference made Tong Manjiao very irritable, and he just went back and slapped himself in the face, but Yang Zhimin couldn't keep sending someone to pick him up, so he kept staying.
What went wrong, Tong Manjiao couldn't figure it out, she had been fighting with herself psychologically for the past two days, and she didn't understand what made Yang Zhimin dissatisfied, so she was left out in the cold.
Zhou looked at Tong Manjiao's appearance and gave Scarlet a color, and Scarlet took away all the maids in the house, leaving only Zhou's mother and daughter.
"You still haven't told your mother the truth?"
"What?"
Tong Manjiao realized that there was only Zhou in the room, and watched Zhou sit down and still adopt an attitude of avoiding and pretending to be stupid about her question.
"You were born to your mother, how can I not know you? How could it make you laugh at you, how long have you been in Tongfu, and the prince didn't hand you back at all, what happened to you and the prince? ”
Zhou's words finally provoked Tong Manjiao's tense nerves, and threw the chopsticks in frustration, and the chopsticks collided with the dishes with a crisp sound and fell to the ground with strength.
"I don't know, the prince is now tied to the princess, and I can't get his attention everywhere in the palace, so I thought he would miss in the name of going back to my mother's house to live, after all, I am also pregnant with a child, but... But ......"
Tong Manjiao didn't come out, Zhou listened to a look of disapproval, and wanted to reach out and poke his daughter's forehead, but he glanced at Tong Manjiao's head and wore royal products, and held back.
Even if there is no one around now, what should be obeyed must be complied with, the daughter is already a side concubine, and the forehead of the side concubine is not something that can be poked by herself, a tasteless and classless woman.
"My stupid daughter, you have been left out in the palace in the cold, and you still expect to go back to your mother's house so that the prince can chase you back? You should be in the palace! It's good now, the prince has no one like you in front of him, and the princess who is pregnant with a sister-in-law is pulling, can he think of you and the child in your womb? ”
"Isn't it his child in my belly? How could he ......."
"Why not?! The one in Liang's belly is a concubine, and what you have in your belly is just a concubine, can't the prince's mind be in Liang's place, and it doesn't explain everything? What are you still daydreaming about? ”
"Mother...... Who the hell are you helping?! ”
"I'm not helping anyone, I'm scolding you to wake you up, it's all at this juncture, and you're still expecting yourself to be on an equal footing with the Liang family? You don't think you're still holding Liang's head, do you? ”
Tong Manjiao was silent, since the Liang family entered the palace, the prince still let himself be in charge of the palace, Tong Manjiao felt that the Liang family was not as good as winning the heart of the prince, and he could let himself snatch the prince on the wedding night, and there was a sister-in-law like Chunniang, who was compared to himself everywhere.
Now that she is also pregnant, the prince has been interested in her for a while, although Tong Manjiao is a little angry, she doesn't feel the need to be nervous.
Zhou's words made Tong Manjiao finally wake up again, yes, what is in his belly is only a concubine, and what is in Liang's belly is a son-in-law, if it is a daughter, if Liang gives birth to a son, even if the prince is always a prince, then the position of the prince of the palace will only be the son of the Liang family.
What if you are in charge of the palace, when the son of the Liang family takes the throne, where will she respect herself as a side concubine, then the Liang family will not do anything now, as long as she gives birth to a son, one day it will all be hers!
"No way!"
Tong Man stood up violently, didn't even care about his stomach, turned around and rushed to the closet, and began to put the things in the closet on the bed.
"What are you doing, be careful of your belly, you still have a child in your belly!"
"No, mother, I have to go back to the palace quickly, I can't live anymore!"
"Jiao'er, you heard my mother say, you go back to the palace now, oops! It's not the most important thing for you to go back to the palace now, the most important thing for you now is to find a way to catch the prince's heart in your own hands. ”
Tong Manjiao replied while packing up her clothes, and the clothes that Zhou took were taken back by her.
"Mother, don't make trouble, if I don't go back to the palace, how can I capture the heart of the prince? Besides, how can I think of it when I sit here and think about it, what is in Liang's belly is my son-in-law, didn't you also say it, what is in my belly is a concubine, how can it be compared to what is in her belly. ”
"What if she had a daughter in her belly or simply none of them?!"
"Who knows if there is a boy or a girl, and besides, the child is in her belly, how can it not be ......"
Tong Manjiao finally stopped packing up and looked at Zhou Shi who was sitting on the edge of the bed with the old god in shock.
"Mother...... What do you mean, you shouldn't be ......?"
"That's what you mean."
"No! How can it be...... It was a child, the same as the child in my belly, just over three months old, no......"
"When is it, are you still worrying about these things for the Liang family's children?!"
"I fight with the Liang family for the prince, and the child is innocent......"
"Her child is innocent, but your child is not innocent? As long as her children are here, you and your son will never get the attention of the prince, don't you say that the prince is better to you than the Liang family? Why is it that now that he is also pregnant, the prince has become like this? It's not because the Liang family has a sister-in-law in the belly, the prince must be attentive to the two of them, otherwise he will spoil the concubine and kill his wife! What big thing can a man who spoils his concubine and kill his wife do?! The emperor has favored Jiang Guifei for many years, and now that the queen is pregnant, the emperor has not yet begun to care about the queen's mother, I heard that now all the large and small pharmacies in the capital, the best supplements have been booked by the Inner Government Division, who is this for? Jiang Guifei? It's not all for the queen who is pregnant with her sister-in-law! ”
Zhou's words were like a slap in the face, Tong Manjiao suddenly became dizzy and couldn't stand, and sat down on the bed, and she couldn't care about the distress when her clothes were wrinkled.
"Mother, what do you say I should do? What can I do? I'm just a side concubine, and I've been doomed since I entered the palace......"
"Nope! There is nothing destined to be born, your father gave up literature and business, and changed your uncle to study and get ahead, and now, you have become the concubine of King Yu, and my mother sees that King Yu is a capable person, and I can't say that you will live there in the future, that is the greater creation of our family. You can rest assured, your mother will help you, and your mother will definitely help you and the child in your belly to a position that no one can reach. ”
In Zhou's words, Tong Manjiao seemed to see herself wearing a crown of nine phoenix beads on her head and a bright yellow backrobe looking at the world.
"Daughters listen to their mothers."
Zhou patted the back of Tong Manjiao's hand with satisfaction, and pulled people to talk about his ideas.
