My princess Lu Ziye

Chapter 987 996 My sister-in-law really likes children.

As soon as the two wives left, there were only the young ladies who had not left the cabinet of the Shangshu Mansion left.

The eldest son, Chen Zhaohua, only married Mrs. Lu, and did not take concubines. They only had a son, Chen Shaoxuan, and a daughter, Chen Xiuying.

The second room, Chen Zhaotong, married Mrs. Jin before, but Mrs. Jin was not in good health and was always sick.

When they first got married, they finally gave birth to a daughter. It was the girl sitting next to Chen Xiuying who was wearing a green dress, named Chen Xiuzhen.

There was no movement after that, and two years later, the old lady couldn't sit still, so she decided to let Chen Zhaotong take another concubine.

Aunt Zheng gave birth to two children in succession after two years in the house, but they were both daughters, and they were Chen Xiuzhen and Chen Xiuning who were sitting next to Chen Xiuzhen.

The second wife of the Duke's mansion has never had a son. When the old Mrs. Duke was thinking about taking a second concubine for her second son, Mrs. Jin unexpectedly announced the good news that she was pregnant again after four years.

This time it was a boy, it was Chen Shaoming, the little boy who wanted to absorb Yang Qi in the hall before.

Although Chen Shaoming was born late, he was very intelligent. His birth brought hope to the second wife, and the old Duke's wife no longer preoccupied with taking concubines for the second son.

Shangguan Yanwan was holding the child, Zheng Peilan was teasing her, she had no intention of leaving at all.

"Sister-in-law, shouldn't it be time for you to go to the front hall too? When I came here just now, I saw the prince's brother coming, and I thought he was waiting for you."

When Zheng Peilan heard this, she could only stand up reluctantly, and was a little bit reluctant.

Chen Xiuying looked at her and smiled mischievously.

"Sister-in-law really likes children. After the new year, your baby will be born, and you can hold it every day."

Zheng Peilan blushed at what she said, and fled with two maids.

Shangguan Yanwan watched the princess go out, and when she was about to look away, she happened to see Chen Xiufang. Seeing the panic in her eyes, she couldn't help being suspicious, but she didn't take it to heart.

For the two concubines in the second room, Shangguan Yanwan didn't have much contact with her, and she didn't even speak much.

Seeing that she was holding the baby all the time, Zhong Lingxiu hurriedly waved to the wet nurse beside her for fear of tiring her.

"Put the baby down first, it's time to feed."

Shangguan Yanwan then turned her attention to the three girls sitting side by side, and finally her gaze rested on Chen Xiuzhen.

"I heard that Sister Zhen has made a deal with her, and the auspicious date has also been set. After the new year, she will marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, right?"

Chen Xiuzhen was born with a pear-like appearance, a willow-like waist, a tall figure, an oval face, and a gentle demeanor. She is a well-behaved girl at first glance.

She lowered her head all the time, as if she had something on her mind, and when she saw Shangguan Yanwan asking, she raised her head, panic flashed in her eyes, and she nodded indiscriminately.

"Well, it's the first month of the month."

Shangguan Yanwan looked at her nonchalantly, frowning slightly, why was there panic in Chen Xiuzhen's eyes?
When the marriage was mentioned, there was no trace of joy on her face, she didn't look like a bride to be married at all.

Seeing Chen Xiuzhen's appearance like this, Zhong Lingxiu thought she was shy, so she added a few words.

"A few days ago, I just exchanged posts with Lin Chen, the young master of Zhen Guo Gongfu. Guo Ping, you are very well informed."

When Chen Xiuying heard this, she had a flattering smile on her face, "I just ran into my cousin the day before yesterday, so I talked to her twice."

Although Chen Xiuying is not Chen Xiuzhen's biological sister, she has always been kind to her, so when she saw Shangguan Yanwan, she mentioned this matter and was very happy for her.
