Aunt Zhou laughed, as if it had nothing to do with her, and said slowly: "When Concubine Wu was pregnant, she accidentally had a miscarriage because of her poor health. She generously framed me and said that the incense I prepared caused her miscarriage. Ruiyuan's father regarded that woman as his thorn in the side, and threw me into the cold palace indiscriminately, and kept saying that I was a woman with a heart of snakes and scorpions."
Her tone was sarcastic and calm, but every word was heart-wrenching.
Du Wanchun comforted her and said: "Mom, don't worry, there is justice in the world, and God will definitely restore your innocence."
Aunt Zhou lowered her gaze and replied after a long time: "It doesn't matter whether you are innocent or not. I just hope that you and Ruiyuan won't suffer anymore because of me."
Du Wanchun nodded solemnly, "Yes, aren't our lives getting better and better now?"
After hearing this, Aunt Zhou turned her head to look at the guests coming and going in the distance outside the house, and nodded happily, "Yes, our life is getting better and better." ?.?????.???
Aunt Zhou used to be a queen, but she developed a simple and easy-going temperament because she was well-dressed and well-fed since she was a child. She didn't know the dangers in the palace, and she ended up like this.
However, such a not-so-powerful woman lived safely in a small village with her three disabled sons for more than three years.
Although she is as weak as catkins, she lives as tough as pampas grass.
The business of Zhou's shop is getting better and better. With Du Wanchun's help, Aunt Zhou bought all the tools for making incense, expanded her workshop, and invited Aunt Wang and Du Damei to help.
One month later.
The business of Zhoujiaxiang Shop is getting better and better, and it has gradually become famous in Chengyang County. Even many dignitaries from Wanzhou County next door come to buy it.
Master Fang was overjoyed to see him. Even when Zhou Feng said he was going to open a shop in the capital, he didn't object. He even wrote him a special message asking him to find his son in the capital to help them choose a shop together, so as not to avoid unnecessary trouble. He suffered a disadvantage because he was unfamiliar with the place in the capital.
But Master Fang didn't know that Zhou Feng knew the capital better than he did. When he was a prince, he often followed a group of young men wandering the streets.
Fortunately, the three years in Changliu Village had changed him a lot. No one might be able to recognize him when he went to the capital again. However, just in case, Du Wanchun specially gave him some moles and spots on his face.
Seeing that most of his aura had gone away, even if Concubine Wu was standing in front of him, she probably wouldn't be able to recognize her.
After getting the post from Master Fang, he got up and went home to say goodbye to everyone. He took half of the gold melted into the shape of a gold bar and a carriage of fragrant ointments and spices to the capital.
Aunt Zhou was very reluctant to part with her, but she resisted not coming out to see him off. She took Du Wanchun and sat in the thatched hut and cried silently.
Du Wanchun patted her on the back and comforted her: "Mom, my second brother is so smart, he will definitely succeed in the capital."
Aunt Zhou wiped her tears and replied: "Well, that's fine. Feng'er has always wanted to return to the capital anyway, and now it's his wish."
Du Wanchun got up and got her a handkerchief, then went to the newly built kitchen to boil a pot of water.
The new house at home has been under construction for more than a month. Although it has not yet been completed, it has already taken shape.
They also specially reserved a room to finish it first and moved in in advance.
Du Wanchun bent down and put some firewood under the stove. When he was about to get up, he felt dizzy.
Zhou Ruiyuan, who had just entered the door, saw it and immediately stepped forward to support her and said, "Wan Chun, what's wrong with you?"
Du Wanchun pressed his slightly dizzy head and said quickly: "I'm fine. Maybe I was too anxious to get up just now."
Aunt Zhou also came in after hearing the sound, and said anxiously and concernedly: "Wang Chun, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell your mother directly. Now that we have some money at home, we don't have to worry about not having money for medical treatment."
Du Wanchun smiled and shook his head: "Mom, I'm really fine."
After saying that, he pushed Zhou Ruiyuan away and planned to continue adding firewood.
However, when she stood up again, she felt dizzy again.
This was so serious that Zhou Ruiyuan was so anxious that he picked up Du Wanchun and rushed directly towards Dr. Xu's house.
"Ms. sir, I'm really fine." Du Wanchun struggled in his arms, but he held him tighter.
Zhou Ruiyuan frowned slightly and said in a domineering and doting tone: "Good boy, don't move! I'll take you to see the doctor!"
Du Wanchun really couldn't resist him, so he had to listen to him, be honest, and let him carry him to Dr. Xu's house.
Doctor Xu saw the two young couples coming and said with a smile, "Ruiyuan, what's wrong with your wife?"
Zhou Ruiyuan carefully put Du Wanchun down, "I saw she was dizzy just now. I don't know if she is sick."
Doctor Xu washed his hands and came over to take Du Wanchun's pulse. While feeling the pulse, he whispered to her and asked, "When did the Zhou family's daughter-in-law have her period?"
Du Wanchun thought for a moment and found that it had been more than two months since she woke up and married into the Zhou family. It seemed that she had not had menstruation during this time.
She could only reply: "I don't remember."
Doctor Xu slowly retracted his hand, arched his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Ruiyuan, your wife is not sick!"
"You're not sick?" Zhou Ruiyuan became even more anxious, "What's going on?"
Doctor Xu stood up, frowned at him, and laughed, "You are going to be a father!"
