After the news of Ruan Xi's three-month pregnancy spread, everyone was stunned like a thunderclap on the ground.
More than two months ago, Concubine Ruan sued her dead mother for ten crimes. Everyone swears that Miss Ruan Si was sterilized. No matter how the imperial physicians clarified it, few people believed it.
Now that this breaking news came out, Ruan Xi became a popular figure in the capital again.
"It's true or not, isn't it about being sterilized?"
"Didn't the Concubine Ruan in the palace say that if it's fake, it can't be true? Maybe this time Wen Shangshu's house deliberately released the news of the young lady's fake pregnancy, and there will be another good miscarriage at that time."
"Yes, yes, just wait for the abortion to happen."
"Accumulate more virtue, whether it is true or not, is it difficult to send a blessing?"
"I think it's true. I remember that the imperial physicians have clarified that Miss Ruan Si is fine, but no one wants to believe it."
"Hey, who knows if it's true or not?"
"Let me tell you, you people are full of food. It has nothing to do with you whether you are pregnant or not. You should think about how to earn money to support your family when you have such a broken mouth."
"..."
There are messy rumors everywhere in the streets and alleys, and most of these people are ordinary people who have nothing to do with themselves.
People in the upper echelons of the powerful circle were well-informed and congratulated Wen Tingzhou one after another. Li Xiangxiang, who was preparing to marry, got a positive answer from her brother Li Jingcheng and couldn't help being jealous of Ruan Xi.
Sincerity House
Mother Yang smiled and announced the good news: "Congratulations to the old lady, Miss Si is three months pregnant. Two months ago, after Miss Si diagnosed her happy pulse, the wife said that the child should not be publicized before the child is three months old, so as not to ruin the child's luck. Forgive me, old lady."
The old lady smiled from ear to ear looking at Mama Yang who came to announce the good news.
"That's how it should be. My in-laws are very considerate. Come and see!"
Ever since the matter of the third granddaughter and the Zhang family were excluded, the Chengyi House had suffered a lot of criticism, and the eldest grandson's marriage had also become difficult.
Now the fourth granddaughter is happy, if this child can be a boy in one fell swoop, she will be able to gain a firm foothold in Wen's family, and then she will be able to raise a big grandson.
The old lady felt distressed when she thought of her grandson who was studying behind closed doors in the yard.
She hated Zhang's viciousness for implicating her eldest grandson, and even more hated the lonely ghost who took over the body of her third granddaughter.
Mama Yang thanked the old lady. After the old lady was happy, she was still worried and confirmed again and again. Mama Yang took the trouble to give an affirmative answer. She came to announce the good news in person, which actually meant to reassure the old lady.
The young lady is really pregnant, not a fake pregnancy.
Uncle Chengyi was overjoyed when he heard the good news, and the entire residence of Uncle Chengyi was beaming with joy.
Seeing this situation, the declining noble family who followed Chengyibo's mansion became skeptical about the news of Ruan Xi's pregnancy.
They didn't even think about what kind of family the Wen family was, especially for a figure like Ruan Xi who had attracted much attention. Isn't fake pregnancy courting death
the palace
Ruan Sanniang's first reaction after hearing the news was that Ruan Xi had a fake pregnancy.
"Yaohong, why do you think the fourth sister is so stupid, and she is not afraid of being exposed when she makes a fake news about her pregnancy. Even I have heard that taking certain drugs can create a slippery pulse, which can make people mistakenly think that they are pregnant. , Fourth Sister must have deliberately taken such a drug to dispel rumors."
"No, I have to persuade Fourth Sister not to go astray."
After Ruan Sanniang sighed, she said righteously.
Yaohong: "..."
I'm afraid the empress is not in a daze. All the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital have diagnosed the fourth lady. It is impossible for the Wen family to bribe the entire imperial hospital to cheat. Is it really so difficult to admit that the fourth lady has not been sterilized
"Ma'am, what if the fourth lady is really pregnant with Mr. Wen's child?" Yaohong endured, and finally said what was in her heart.
"impossible!"
Ruan Sanniang categorically rejected it, but the scene of her eating with Fourth Sister inadvertently appeared in her mind.
She remembered that the fourth sister only ate two dishes at that time... The chef confessed that it was no problem to have two or three meals for the three meals in Chengxinyuan.
Thinking of this, Ruan Sanniang couldn't help but frowned, feeling a little irritable in her heart, and secretly scolded the chef for not being good at what the master told him.
At this time, Ruan Sanniang didn't want to believe that the fourth sister was lucky enough to avoid Zhang's calculations, and decided to wait for the fourth sister to be six months pregnant before calling the fourth sister into the palace.
Whether it is true or false will be known at a glance.
Let's wait and see.
There are now two pregnant women in Wen Shangshu's mansion, maybe the fourth sister will have a good abortion.
"Fourth sister's pregnancy is a great event, Yaohong, please go to Wen Shangshu's mansion for me to give a congratulatory gift, and pass on a few words by the way."
"Yes, ma'am."
Yaohong took the order and retreated, took out the palace token and left the palace with the prepared congratulatory gifts.
Wen Shangshu Mansion
After the news of Ruan Xi's pregnancy broke out, the entire Shangshu Mansion was filled with joy.
The only disharmony is that it is said that Liu Wanwan has moved her fetus again.
Originally thriving, but now it's better, Ruan Xi, who is the eldest daughter-in-law, is also three months pregnant.
Whose belly did the eldest grandson of the Shangshu Mansion come from
It's no wonder Liu Wanwan wasn't furious.
The whole family knew about her fetal gas. Mrs. Wen beat her severely, and Aunt Zhao's face turned black. This Liu family has almost become a joke in the house since she became pregnant, even her face is shameless. .
Suyu Suzhu and the others looked proud.
"Young madam, when you broke the news of your pregnancy this time, the second young madam was so angry that she dared to be arrogant in the future. Every time she heard her accusing Sang Huai and finding various excuses to ask for supplements, the maidservant would like to use needles." Sew her mouth."
"Suzhu is right, let's see who in the mansion dare to make irresponsible remarks behind their backs this time."
Ruan Xi couldn't help laughing when he saw their righteous indignation.
"They're just talking behind their backs, how dare they show their clues in front of me."
Mrs. Wen's housekeeping is very strict, and the servants dare not talk about her affairs openly, they just mutter in private, not everyone is like Liu Wanwan who gets pregnant as soon as she is pregnant.
Suyu Suzhu thought so too, the people who said these words were all servants in the Second Young Madam's yard, and they had no guts.
On this day, Ruan Xi received a lot of congratulatory gifts. In addition to the congratulatory gifts from everyone in the mansion, there were also gifts from Mrs. Wen, Mrs. An Guogong, the old lady of the uncle's mansion, the two concubine sisters, and Ruan Yuwen. As well as another concubine's second elder brother, Ruan Sanniang from the Lian Palace sent her personal maid Yaohong to give the gift...
Ruan Xi was completely speechless about Ruan Sanniang's reaction after hearing what Yaohong told her.
Suyu Suzhu: "..."
Mother Yang's mouth twitched.
When Wen Tingzhou came back, he saw Ruan Xi eating an apple happily.
"Ruan Ruan, you are in a good mood today."
Wen Tingzhou raised the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, I received a lot of congratulatory gifts today, one of which was sent by the third sister, and I asked Yaohong to convey a few words by the way." Ruan Xi replied briskly with a bright smile.
Wen Tingzhou walked up to her with a smile and sat down beside her, Ruan Xi casually stuffed a piece of apple into his mouth.
"What?" Wen Tingzhou raised his eyebrows and asked after eating the apple slices.
Ruan Xi wrote lightly: "Just tell me not to go astray and take drugs to fake pregnancy, and she will give me a noble little nephew in the future."
Wen Tingzhou's expression was indescribable.
