The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 791: Trouble Arrives

Gu Chuan came out to bow his head in mourning before the coffin.

The nanny also held Ruru and bowed.

All the servants kneeled and bowed their heads too, then the coffin was finally taken out.

Mrs. Chen and the others were not allowed to go out, only Cai Ping and Granny Tian followed the carriage.

It was pitch dark when Granny Tian and Cai Ping returned.

Everyone ate in silence, and the nanny holding Ruru said, "Aunt Chen, I don’t dare live in this backyard anymore. It’s too unsettling."

Mrs. Chen sighed, "Then stay in the front yard." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Under the current circumstances, issues of propriety between men and women were no longer a concern.

That night, Ruru cried particularly hard, and the nanny couldn’t soothe her no matter what.

The maids took turns holding Ruru, walking with her around the courtyard.

It wasn’t until dawn that Ruru, perhaps tired from all the fuss, finally fell asleep.

Early in the morning, Yun Jiao sat by the bedside, rubbing her chest. She had dreamt all night.

In the dream, there were bizarre and dazzling things, faint and hazy; when she tried to recall them, she forgot.

She only remembered that Lady Wu was tearful in her dream last night, entrusting her, "Ruru is entrusted to you from now on. You have great fortune, you can keep Ruru safe."

Yun Jiao shook her head, unsure of why she had such a dream.

After washing up, while having breakfast, a maid rushed in anxiously, "Miss Gu, outside the Second Madam, Third Madam, and Fourth Madam have brought people over."

Yun Jiao was momentarily confused, "What Second Madam, Third Madam?"

The maid said urgently, "They are all concubines of the Prince."

Yun Jiao responded with a faint "Hmm" and continued eating breakfast.

The maid, anxious, still wanted to say something, but Yang Ying glared at her, and she had to retreat.

Soon the tinkling of ornaments was heard, followed by a strong mixed fragrance wafting in.

Yun Jiao raised her eyelids and saw three women dressed in red and green entering.

Maid servants and nannies followed behind each of them.

The woman at the front, with a high bun adorned with a full set of gold ornaments, wore a purple dress embroidered with golden silk butterflies, looking at Yun Jiao with an unfriendly expression.

Yun Jiao glanced at them and continued with her meal.

The woman in purple, seeing Yun Jiao’s indifference, became visibly angry. The maid next to her stepped forward, pointing at Yun Jiao, "Brazen! You should stand and pay your respects when meeting the Second Madam!"

Yun Jiao didn’t even bother to lift her eyelids.

Another maid also said, "What a barbarian of Great Chu, so rude."

"It’s one thing not to pay respect to Second Madam; but to dare not pay respects to the Princess as well."

Yun Jiao acted as if she hadn’t heard anything; she couldn’t be bothered with Yan Zhang’s wives and concubines.

The maid, seeing Yun Jiao still unresponsive, felt greatly humiliated and said to the woman in purple, "Second Madam, this Great Chu woman is clearly relying on her pregnancy and doesn’t regard Second Madam."

Second Madam’s gaze fell on Yun Jiao’s belly, a flash of hatred shown in her eyes, and she said contemptuously, "She is just a woman of Chu."

"In the West Market, spending some gold can buy one, even a princess for only three thousand taels."

Third Madam continued, "It’s not that expensive; at the Washing House, they say ten taels can bed a Chu princess."

Fourth Madam laughed, "This one isn’t much to look at; at the Washing House, maybe five taels of silver for a night."

Yun Jiao raised her eyelids, glanced at them, and said calmly, "I have no interest in bickering with you."

"Get out, immediately!"

Third Madam widened her eyes, looking at Second Madam, "Is this foolish servant crazy to dare speak to us like this?"
