Chapter 631, Step by Step, Heart-Stopping
Granny Zhao has watched Lin Jiu grow from a tiny little girl to a married woman.
Therefore, in Zhao Mama's mind, Lin Jiu's feelings were the most important thing, and everything else could be ignored.
Even if there is any fault, it is all the Ninth Prince's fault, not his own wife's.
Not wanting to see Lin Jiu continue to be troubled by those unpleasant things, Granny Zhao quickly interrupted, "My lady, today is the young prince's day off, shouldn't we prepare something nice for him to eat?"
As expected, upon hearing this, Lin Jiu immediately snapped out of her reverie, quickly put aside her annoyance, and began to enthusiastically think about what delicious food to make for Hong Xuan.
One moment she's thinking about making some delicate and delicious desserts, and the next she's talking about preparing a sumptuous meal.
After all, if this man isn't right, she can just find another one and life will go on. But her son is crucial to her retirement.
Seeing Lin Jiu finally shake off the gloom and become lively again, Zhao Mama couldn't help but smile smugly to herself, keeping her merits hidden!

Yinzhen was extremely troubled and kept gulping down tea, as if trying to drown all his worries.
Meanwhile, Yinzhen, sitting to the side, presented a completely different scene. He was devouring the pastries on the table with great relish, and in no time, he had finished off the entire plate of exquisite cakes.
Seeing Yinzhen wolfing down his food, Yinzhen frowned, his lips twitching slightly. He said irritably, "Tenth brother, do you never feed your family? Why are you coming to my place looking for food? Do you want to eat all my food?"
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, then quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, raised his head and stared straight at Yintang.
Feeling a little guilty under his younger brother's intense gaze, Yinzhen tried to appear calm and returned the look.
However, the situation changed dramatically in the next moment—Yinxi seemed to have become a different person. He scratched his head, chuckled foolishly, and then said, "No way, Ninth Brother, you can easily give Eighth Brother hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. How could I possibly eat you out of house and home if I just have some food?"
Upon hearing these words, Yinzhen's eyes widened, and he looked at Yinzhen with suspicion, wondering if this guy was deliberately mocking him.
He snorted coldly, looking at Yinzhen with a suspicious expression, and said, "Hmph! Stop trying to talk my way out of this! I think you're clearly trying to sarcasticly criticize me!"
"How could that be? Ninth Brother, I just feel that you don't need to give Eighth Brother so much money. It's understandable that Ninth Sister-in-law is angry with you. If it were me, I would be angry too. If that money were given to me, I could buy a few antiques to appreciate. But if it were given to Eighth Brother... Hmph." Yinzhen said with a serious face. He really felt that Ninth Brother didn't need to give Eighth Brother so much money.
Ninth Brother has thrown in so much silver, and hasn't even seen a splash. What else could he be but a sucker?
People say that the Tenth Prince is a good-for-nothing and has no brains, but he thinks the Ninth Prince isn't much smarter either! Yinzhen thought to himself.
If one person says this, and two people say it too, am I really being taken advantage of? Yin Tang started to doubt himself as everyone said these things.
He quickly shook his head, banishing the thoughts from his mind, glared at Yinzhen, and frowned, saying, "You can just say it to me, but don't go around telling my aunt. Besides, this is all for our future, you wouldn't understand!"
He didn't understand, nor did he want to understand. Yinzhen looked at Yintang with an expression as if he were a fool, and suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for his ninth sister-in-law; she was truly… stubbornly obstinate!
His eighth brother is really good at bewitching his ninth brother, making him go down a dark path.
