Since Ning Shuqian moved back to the Wen family when she became pregnant, she has been living the life of a real wife of the Wen family. She eats and sleeps every day. Old Mrs. Wen is very kind to her, and the servants serve her very attentively.
After being married into the Wen family for fifteen years, she finally felt that she had become the real Mrs. Wen.
Ning Shuqian woke up from her nap and felt dry mouth and suddenly remembered that she had asked Wang Ma to buy her some seasonal fresh fruits.
Ning Shuqian slowly went downstairs. Seeing that there was no one downstairs, she could not help but feel angry: "Mother Wang, Mother Wang..."
A maid rushed into the living room and said, "Madam, Aunt Wang went out and hasn't come back yet."
"What, she hasn't come back yet?" Ning Shuqian's face turned pale instantly after hearing this: "It's almost three o'clock, why hasn't she come back yet?"
The maid couldn't help but think of the situation a few days ago when Zhou Ma was kicked out of the Wen family. She lowered her head and shook her head in panic, saying, "I don't know either."
This old thing!
Ning Shuqian gritted her teeth for a while. Aunt Wang was an old servant in the Wen residence. Among the servants in the Wen family, the housekeeper and Aunt Wang had the highest status. Even the old man relied on them a lot. The servants under her followed her lead, and even she had to be polite to them. When she first married into the Wen family, she wanted to bribe this old thing, but this old thing didn't buy it. She was always considerate but distant to her. Because of her attitude, other servants in the Wen family also treated her with neglect.
Later she found out that this old guy had served Mo Yunyao in the past and had always respected Mo Yunyao, so he was often neglectful to her. After Wen Xinya came back, he also treated her very well.
Thinking of this, she felt a surge of hatred in her heart, and she was determined to kick this old man out of the Wen residence.
Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Wen walked into the living room carrying her handbag.
"Mom, you've made an appointment with your friends to go out and play cards!" Ning Shuqian greeted Old Lady Wen, but her eyes instantly turned red and tears welled up in her eyes, which made her look even weaker and more pitiful against her slightly pale face.
Seeing Ning Shuqian like this, Old Lady Wen hurried over and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ning Shuqian gently stroked her stomach, lowered her head, and said in a hoarse and pitiful voice: "No...no, it's just that I didn't eat anything at lunch because I didn't have a good appetite. I just woke up from a nap and felt very hungry, and I felt a little flustered."
Mrs. Wen suddenly became nervous and said, "Since you're hungry, why don't you ask Aunt Wang to make you something you want to eat?"
Thinking about the lunch before, Ning Shuqian did not eat much. She had heard Haowen say that a child conceived with ovulation injections would have a great impact on both the mother and the baby, and would also be prone to miscarriage. So after Ning Shuqian returned to the Wen family, she almost always accommodated him, for fear that if anything went wrong, she would lose her long-awaited grandson.
"Because I have a poor appetite, I asked Aunt Wang to go out and buy some fresh fruits for me. Who knew that she was out for two hours and didn't come back." Ning Shuqian's voice was full of grievance, but her eyes were secretly looking at the maid who was standing aside, who didn't know whether to leave or stay. There was an inexplicable sharpness flashing in her dark eyes.
The maid shuddered when she saw her like that and said, "Old lady, ever since Madam moved back home, Aunt Wang... Aunt Wang... she has been neglecting Madam because she relies on the support of the old man and you..."
Thinking of how Wang Ma took care of everyone on a daily basis, the maid's words became more and more gloomy, and she felt more and more ashamed.
"Could there be any misunderstanding?" Old Mrs. Wen asked hesitantly. Aunt Wang has served the Wen family for three generations, and has always been dedicated and has never made any mistakes. How could she neglect the pregnant Ning Shuqian
Ning Shuqian lowered her head and sobbed when she heard the old lady's hesitant question. "Mom, the doctor said that I have hurt my body because of the long-term artificial insemination and ovulation injections. Now I just happened to be pregnant, and I am pregnant at an advanced age. My body can't bear it at all, so this pregnancy is unstable and the fetus has not been good. When I was discharged from the hospital, the doctor repeatedly told me to pay more attention to my diet, take more nutrition, and take good care of my body. Only when my body is healthy and well-nourished can the baby develop healthily in the belly..."
The last sentence really touched Mrs. Wen's heart. Because the side effects of ovulation injections were so serious, Mrs. Wen was most worried that the child would not be healthy. At this moment, what Mrs. Wen hoped most was that Ning Shuqian could give birth to a healthy child.
Ning Shuqian's voice became choked, tears kept falling from her eyes: "Dad and Mom took pity on me and asked me to move back to the Wen family to take care of them, but... Before that, Mom Zhou..."
He paused for the rest of the words and didn't continue speaking, only his aggrieved and pitiful expression became even more intense.
"If you have any grievances, just tell me everything." Old Mrs. Wen's face turned ugly and a little angry. In her heart, nothing was more important than the child in Ning Shuqian's belly. She couldn't help but think of Aunt Zhou who was kicked out of the Wen family a few days ago. It was because she relied on her status as an old servant in the Wen house that she neglected Ning Shuqian, causing Ning Shuqian to have a stomachache.
A hint of coldness flashed across Ning Shuqian's eyes, but her tears kept falling: "Mom, I know that Mom Wang is an old servant of the Wen family and is trusted by you and Dad, but the baby in my belly is of the Wen family. Even if she looks down on me as a stepmother who is not recognized by the Wen family, she should still serve me well because I am pregnant with the Wen family's flesh and blood. If... if anything happens to the baby in my belly, how can she bear the responsibility, and how can I be worthy of the ancestors of the Wen family?"
Wen Xinya was recognized by the old man as soon as she returned to the Wen family. She established her authority in the Wen family with the help of this old man. This old man had prestige in front of the servants and had served three generations of the Wen family. Naturally, the relationship between her and the old man was special.
Even the old man would think more about her words. She stood on Wen Xinya's side and said a few good words for her. Over time, people's opinions can confuse the public and make false statements become true.
Now that she is pregnant, the old lady and Wen Haowen listen to her and even the old man is much more tolerant towards her. They are determined to get rid of Wen Xinya, the capable helper, and make Wen Xinya isolated and helpless in the Wen family. With the father-son relationship between Haowen and the old man for many years, they will definitely make the old man stand on their side again.
This was also a good opportunity to discipline the Wen family servants and let these power-hungry guys know how powerful she was.
