Everyone was curious about General Gongsun's original wife. All they knew was that she was a young miss of the Shangguan Family. When she was married that year, she was absolutely compatible with the young master of Gongsun Mansion. However, he did not know whether this Madam General, who rarely appeared in public, was superior or inferior to Miss Zhou, who often appeared in public.

Murong Yao, who had been the focus of everyone's attention, was now a little sleepy. Ever since she knew that she was pregnant, she had been extremely tired. The excuse was that the bumpy carriage was driven slowly by a young man to let Zhou Yingxue drive more. Unexpectedly, after the stable carriage was driven by a tortoise, it was so comfortable that it made people fall asleep unconsciously.

At this moment, Murong Yao looked at Chun'er who hated her for not being able to meet her expectations. Murong Yao looked at Chun'er, who looked at her in disappointment, Murong Yao looked at him, feeling both familiar and intimate. In those five years, not only had her temper been tempered, but also Chun'er's. Since she managed to find some, Chun'er should have also found quite a few.

"Alright, Chun'er, don't be angry. Help me get dressed and fix my makeup, right?"

Speaking of which, Chun'er had a look of realization on her face. Then, her hands and feet began to move swiftly. For Murong Yao, who had successfully diverted Chun'er's attention, this was a good thing.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the restaurant for a long time. When everyone stretched out their necks, some of them even felt that their necks were a little tired. They all speculated that perhaps when there was no one in the carriage, the curtain of the carriage was lifted by a hand. Tsk tsk, that hand was bright white with five slender fingers. It was obvious at a glance that it was …

…" How could it be a servant girl? When they saw Chun'er jumped off the carriage with her hair tied up in a bun, everyone was stunned. Why did that hand only grow on a servant girl? If Murong Yao heard this, she would definitely find it funny. Chun'er was her personal servant; even if the Mu Rong family wasn't a big family, they wouldn't let her personal servant do those menial tasks. Besides, Chun'er was like her, a maintenance girl.

Chun'er didn't care what others thought, she just quietly muttered. After she got off the carriage, she turned around and took out a horse stool from the carriage. She placed it on the ground and gave her hand to Murong Yao, indicating that she needed help to get off the carriage.

Before they left the pavilion, Murong Yao went to the carriage and hopped like Chun'er. After she married Gongsun Ze, she needed elegance and a horse stool. Afterwards, she even had fewer opportunities to go out. As for now, she was still pregnant. Although she wanted to relive the free and easy times of the past, she really couldn't joke with her child. Thus, she extended her hand to Chun'er.

As everyone looked at Chun'er's hands, they became a bit picky. If the Madam General's hands were not as pretty as the maidservants beside her, then they would not be this good. Chun'er's wife's hand did not disappoint them. It could be said that her hand was gentle and her skin was creamy. However, because of the dim light, she could not see her face clearly.

When the general's wife elegantly got off the carriage, using a horse stool, and lightly moved into the restaurant, everyone's eyes began to focus on her.

Today, Murong Yao wore a heart bun. The butterfly steps with gold inlaid jade on the bun were the most eye-catching. As she walked, she lightly flapped her butterfly wings as if she was alive. She was lightly painted with makeup. Although her eyebrows were not outstanding, they had the gentle and graceful bearing of a lady from a noble family even after looking at them for a long time. With a faint smile on his lips, he wore a jade-green robe and a green grass pleated skirt. He slowly walked into the crowd's line of sight. For a time, the restaurant went silent. Some people even felt that Murong Yao exuded a bit of lazy charm.

If Chun'er had heard his last sentence, she might not have been able to stop herself from praising him, right? Her young mistress had just gotten a good night's sleep. It would be weird if she wasn't lazy. Murong Yao did not even glance at him. She walked slowly out of everyone's sight and stopped in front of the shopkeeper. She looked at Chun'er and asked, "storekeeper, where is Miss Zhou now?" My lady is here as promised. "

When the crowd behind Murong Yao heard this, they immediately woke up and began to whisper to each other. No wonder they were all in the same boat. They were definitely here to demonstrate their skills and show their cards. Tsk tsk, I wonder if I still have time to go to the reserved room?

When Murong Yao walked into the restaurant, although she felt it was strange, it was because many customers were staring at her, as if she was an important person. Later on, Chun'er had asked Zhou Yingxue, saying that she had come to meet Zhou Yingxue. The understanding that had appeared on the face of the shopkeeper and the waiter had not escaped Murong Yao's eyes.

Only then did Murong Yao realize that perhaps everyone in the capital already knew that her young and promising husband, the young and general, had fallen for the devastatingly beautiful woman she was about to meet. Unfortunately, her original body had been restricted by her mother-in-law into the inner chamber, so she didn't go out very often. That was why the news was rather slow. Right now, the well-informed citizens of the city were all discussing about the two ladies who had revealed their cards to a random restaurant. Who knew who would be the final victor in the end?

Even though Murong Yao had already guessed all this, she still maintained her proper smile and indifferent expression as she followed the waiter upstairs.

In contrast to Murong Yao's calmness, Zhou Yingxue, who was clearly in a passive state, should be extremely agitated at this moment. Although everyone guessed that General Gongsun and this beautiful Qing Mei had some feelings for them … It was unclear. But they had all arranged to meet at the house, and who knew if they were in a very good mood, talking only of poetry and poetry and not of the moon and the wind. After all, not everyone had mastered a pair of palace nanny's Fiery Eyes of Truth. With a single glance, one could tell if a certain girl was a virgin or not.

A while ago, there was a rumor spreading around that Miss Zhou had already been planted with blue flowers and was a virgin. Anyone who saw Miss Zhou today wouldn't be able to tell because she was wearing a light blue dress. However, the intelligent audience was able to taste a bit of it. Shouldn't ordinary women wear pleated dresses like the general's wife in order to show off their slender waist? The tall waist jacket and skirt seemed like they wanted to cover up the situation.

Zhou Yingxue was upset. Ever since she had noticed something in her stomach, she was still wearing her usual dress at home. However, her belt was much tighter and her dress could no longer be worn. Today, when she went out, in order to cover her stomach, she wore a tall waist jacket and skirt. Unexpectedly, the surrounding people looked at her with a strange gaze. If she continued down this path, she wouldn't be able to hide her stomach. She didn't want to lose this person.

Zhou Yingxue thought bitterly as she drank the water. She hated Murong Yao for making her wait for so long, and after she got pregnant, she always felt uncomfortable sitting there for so long, but she also wanted to show off in front of Murong Yao. As a result, she sat very gracefully and elegantly. They arrived late.

When Murong Yao was ushered into the room by the waiter, Zhou Yingxue was gnashing her teeth and cursing at her. Although she had restrained her expression when the waiter came in, she still looked ferocious. The waiter was so frightened that he trembled for a moment before hurriedly leaving. At first, he thought Miss Zhou was rather pretty. Although it was a thick makeup, it had a tinge of flavour. Now, it seemed that the Madam General was more pleasing to the eye.

Murong Yao sat down, and after the waiter left, Zhou Yingxue opened her mouth, "Sister Yao, after you became the general's wife, you became even more arrogant. We had clearly arranged to meet each other at a quarter to one, and it was almost quarter to noon when you finally came. Is there anything against me, the sister, that I'm not satisfied with? "

"Miss Zhou is too serious, to be honest, Yao would not dare to be your sister. I can't afford a sister like you who can't even spare her brother-in-law. " Murong Yao held the last sentence to her lips and did not say it.

"Hmph, if you don't want to come, you don't have to either. Why are you so unwilling?"

"If I don't come to see you today, you will find another reason. If you get another chance to see me, then why don't I come now and save everyone's time?"

Murong Yao couldn't understand why the woman in front of her, who had such a good family background and impeccable looks, would stare at the husband of another. In the earlier years, before Gongsun Shanshan was married, they always played together. After Gongsun Shanshan was married, the three of them would often get together. After she and Gongsun Ze were married, Zhou Yingxue never appeared in front of her again.

She had thought that Zhou Yingxue had already given up her feelings for her husband, or perhaps she had misunderstood him. Like her husband had said, their relationship was that of brother and sister. At that time, how could Murong Yao not be jealous? She looked at the woman in front of her, who was still beautiful despite losing some of her looks due to the pregnancy, and how could she not feel inferiority? How could she believe that her husband would abandon such a beauty and fall in love with her? And married her.

After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't think of a reason. He could only believe in the eyes of a lover.

"Do you know why I called you here today?"

"If I don't understand, you will. "Why don't you just say it."

Lili didn't say anything. She just stood up and pressed her hand down on her high-waisted skirt. Her lower abdomen was already slightly bulging, but Murong Yao couldn't bear to see her so proud, "Sofia, I'm not talking about you. As a woman in a harem, you still need to avoid saying anything. "It's impossible to find a good wife like this."

Zhou Yingxue was slightly angry. Isn't this lying with his eyes wide open? Anyone could tell that she was pregnant. "How could it be because you don't want to eat anymore? Once you grow meat, no one will be able to eat it. This meat is all grown on your belly."

"You've been in the inner chamber for a long time. Perhaps you don't know that me and brother Ze …" And then, she turned her head bashfully, "We truly love each other. Just help us achieve our goal!"

"Oh? Why should I help you, and how do you want me to help? "

"I already have brother Ze's son." Zhou Yingxue exclaimed loudly, giving Murong Yao a fright.

"So what?" Murong Yao replied softly.

Zhou Yingxue, who didn't see the surprise or disappointment on Murong Yao's face, frowned and asked tentatively, "You knew about it from the beginning?" Thinking back to yesterday, Gongsun Ze was normal. Zhou Yingxue laughed sinisterly and said, "You are quite patient."

Murong Yao smiled gently, "That's right, I'm the main wife of my husband, the one who carried a palanquin into the mansion." Then he raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Yingxue up and down. "A woman who is pregnant before leaving the pavilion, and it's not me, what can I do to keep my cool?" There are plenty of people who can't hold it in. Otherwise, I wouldn't have appeared in this Sun Restaurant today, would I? "
