After Aunt Zhou left Madam Zhuang behind, Du Wanchun felt more relaxed. Madam Zhuang was busy helping her with everything and taught her how to take care of her body from time to time. It is said that if you take good care of your body during pregnancy, you will be in better shape after giving birth. Du Wanchun didn't know much about this, so she just listened to Madam Zhuang. Madam Zhuang not only knew how to take care of her body, but also how to cook. Her cooking skills were much better than Aunt Zhou and the Third Prince. They stayed in the inn these days, and Madam Zhuang cooked for them in the kitchen of the inn. Du Wanchun had just gotten up when she smelled the lotus seed soup and red bean crisps on the table. She sat down at the table and took a few bites.

The provincial examination will end tomorrow, and the results will be announced in a month.

Aunt Zhou has been nervous these days and often walks around the room.

Aunt Zhuang was afraid that she would be anxious, so after making breakfast for Du Wanchun early in the morning, she took Aunt Zhou to the market.

The two hurried to buy some more things when they returned to Changliu Village tomorrow.

Aunt Zhou looked at some fine fabrics again, "Mammy, how about these for making swaddles for the children?"

Mammy Zhuang touched the fabrics and shook her head, "These are not good enough, the fabrics are too hard, we need to buy softer ones, softer fabrics absorb sweat and water, and can also be used to make urine bags."

Aunt Zhou continued to walk in, picked up a piece of fabric, and asked Aunt Zhuang, "How about this one?"

Mammy Zhuang touched it again, "Yes, I want this one, you can buy more."

"Okay, I'll buy a few more." Aunt Zhou smiled and took a few pieces of cloth to the shopkeeper.

Just then, a woman suddenly came to the door, "Wait, we want this cloth."

Aunt Zhou was stunned, looked up, and saw a lady wearing a maroon skirt and a gold hairpin.

The lady raised her chin, walked to her side arrogantly, and snatched the cloth, "Boss, how much silver?"

The shopkeeper looked at Aunt Zhou and then at the lady, and said with some embarrassment: "Madam, these cloths were chosen by this guest first."

Aunt Zhou snatched the cloth from the woman's hand, "Yes, I was the first to choose this cloth."

The lady raised her eyebrows and glanced coldly at Aunt Zhou and Madam Zhuang, "They are just two poor ghosts, where can they buy such good materials, shopkeeper, don't be fooled by them."

After hearing her words, Aunt Zhou understood that this lady was just trying to make things difficult for them.

At this time, Madam Zhuang pulled Aunt Zhou's arm and whispered in her ear: "This is the new wife my husband married into the family."

Aunt Zhou understood now that she was deliberately making things difficult for Madam Zhuang.

She didn't argue, and directly took out ten taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper, "I want all these cloths."

After saying that, she picked up the cloth and turned around to leave.

Madam Zhuang lowered her head and hurried to catch up with her.

But this lady didn't seem to want to let them go, and strode to them to stop them, "Hey, Zhuang Xiulian, have you hooked up with some wealthy family again? I heard from my wife that you used to be a wet nurse for someone, so what? Now you are a wet nurse for someone again?"

Madam Zhuang listened, her face slightly gloomy, and didn't get angry directly.

In the past, in the palace, Madam Zhuang had seen no less provocation than now.

Aunt Zhou also ignored her directly and walked past her and went straight forward.

Seeing that Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhuang ignored her, the lady's face gradually became full of anger. She pointed at Aunt Zhuang and continued to curse: "Zhuang Xiulian, since you have married into a rich family, don't come to my man!"

Aunt Zhuang still pretended not to hear and took Aunt Zhou away at a faster speed.

Aunt Zhou asked her: "That person seems to have some hatred towards you."

Aunt Zhuang frowned and said slowly: "My husband came here with our silver, saying that he wanted to do business, but he hooked up with the daughter of a rice shop owner. The two of them conspired to open a new rice shop with my silver and drove me out of the house."

"She is so good now, and she blames me. I went to that beast just to get my own silver back!"

Aunt Zhuang has seen a lot of storms, and when she said these words, she frowned.

I guess all the tears she should cry have dried up.

Aunt Zhou pulled her and asked: "Don't worry, people like him will definitely get retribution."
