Lady Zhu was pushed, but fortunately, Grandma Rong supported her, preventing her from falling.
She exclaimed with uncertainty, “Can that useless ugly duckling you gave birth to really soar to the branches and become a phoenix?”
Madam Zhang smiled triumphantly, saying, “Do you think my daughter is an ugly duckling? Can Liang Ruyi’s daughter be a magpie? Don’t pretend in front of me. Liang Ruyi was scolded and beaten by you a lot back then. Liu Shimei is only worthy of marrying a fool. Even if she rises to great heights, she won’t remember you!”
After being whipped, does it hurt?
Of course, it hurts!
But she thought about it, the Crown Princess—
The future Emperor’s daughter came to receive her. In the future, she would not only be a first-class decree holder but also the birth mother of the Crown Princess!
As long as she supported Liu Yan’er to become the Empress, she would be the mother-in-law of the new Emperor in the future!
Thinking about it, she felt infinite hope for the future!
Therefore, the slight pain in front of her was really nothing!
Lady Zhu called Madam Zhang over, originally intending to give her a severe beating, but unexpectedly received such news.
She squinted her wrinkled old eyes and instantly started calculating in her heart!
But she didn’t say anything, just waved her hand and said, “Fine, it’s good that the ugly duckling can be so spirited. You can go back now.”
Madam Zhang wanted to snatch the whip and give Lady Zhu a severe beating, but the Great Shu Dynasty valued filial piety. No one would say a word if a mother-in-law beat her daughter-in-law to death. However, if a daughter-in-law beat her mother-in-law, she would be drowned in spit the next day!
She was a person who would become the mother of the future Emperor and couldn’t bear such a reputation!
After she returned and regained control of the offerings, she could withhold some of the incense money.
Donate less incense, and Lady Zhu’s days in the Grand Chancellor’s Temple would naturally not be easy.
Let’s play the scheming game and see how it goes!
After Madame Zhang left with Grandma Cai, Lady Zhu sat down on the chair, looking thoughtful.
Grandma Rong stood aside, discontentedly saying, “Why is this Madam Zhang so lucky?”
“Lucky?” Lady Zhu said coldly, “If she didn’t resort to scheming and tricks, could she be where she is today? Like mother, like child. Can the children born to such a lowly woman from a small family compare to those born to Liang Ruyi? If it weren’t for her scheming and plotting against Liang Ruyi back then, how could Liang Ruyi have died? If Liang Ruyi didn’t die, she couldn’t stabilize her position, and how could she have driven me to this place?”
Grandma Rong shrewdly said, “Old Madam, so can’t we take advantage of this opportunity to return to the Imperial Capital this time?”
The corners of Lady Zhu’s wrinkled lips curled up, and she said viciously, “Naturally!”
Grandma Rong also smiled, saying, “Since Second Young Miss Liu is going to be the Crown Princess and can bring her birth mother back from the Grand Chancellor’s Temple, as the grandmother, you should naturally go back too!”
A calculating expression appeared on Lady Zhu’s face. “Madam Zhang drove me to the Grand Chancellor’s Temple, making me suffer for ten years. She should wait for me! Although I don’t like Liang Ruyi, using the matter of Liang Ruyi to trample Madam Zhang in the dust!”
Grandma Rong sighed deeply and said, “Old Madam, you have finally seen the light after enduring for so long!”
On the thirteenth day of August, the carriage from the Grand Chancellor’s Residence arrived at the Grand Chancellor’s Temple.
The steward personally came to invite and brought back to the Imperial Capital the birth mother of the Crown Princess-to-be, Madam Zhang, the wife of the Grand Chancellor.
The grandmother of the Crown Princess-to-be, Lady Zhu, took the opportunity to come out, “As a grandmother, how can I not prepare for my granddaughter’s marriage? Both granddaughters are getting married soon, and I should take care of them!”
On this side, as soon as the two women returned to the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, Liu Shimei immediately received the news!
