Chapter 71 Ji Anyu, are you pregnant?

"Let her in through the side door so she can't be seen by my parents."

Ji Yunchu calmed herself down. What she had done during this period had displeased her parents, and even the queen in the palace was dissatisfied with her. She had to be careful in what she did.

"Yes." The servant was secretly surprised. It really was related to the eldest lady.

The moment Lin Yunfang saw Ji Yunchu, she couldn't help but look down on her, thinking that she was really lucky.

The daughter of a midwife happened to get an opportunity and firmly sat on the position of the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion. According to rumors in the neighborhood, she might become the Crown Princess.

Why didn't she get pregnant? If she gave birth to a daughter, what would the midwife do?

"How dare you, bitch. What are you standing there for? Why don't you greet the young lady?" Yuemei scolded.

Lin Yunfang concealed her contempt and knelt down to pay her respects.

"You all go down."

Ji Yunchu sent the servants away, leaving only her and Lin Yunfang.

"Are you Ji Anyu's adoptive mother Lin Yunfang?"

"Yes." Lin Yunfang smiled bitterly.

"I didn't want to bother you, Miss, but I really have no choice. Can you give me five thousand taels? I promise I won't bother you again in the future."

"Five thousand taels!" Ji Yunchu was shocked. "Where can I get five thousand taels for you?"

"The few gold hairpins and jadeite that the young lady wore on her head should be worth only five thousand taels."

"Hehe, why don't you go and rob? Five thousand taels, no!" Ji Yunchu stared at the old woman in front of her viciously.

After the Duke's Mansion was divided, the expenses were reduced by half. She was worried about how to prepare a dowry for herself. Otherwise, the dowry would be too little. When she married into the Eastern Palace, wouldn't she be laughed at to death by the people in the palace?

Ji Yunchu calmly touched the extinguished candlestick beside him, wondering whether he should kill the witness himself.

"I advise the young lady not to have the intention to kill me."

Lin Yunfang saw through Ji Yunchu's thoughts. She was restrained by Ji Anyu before because it happened suddenly and she was caught off guard. This time she was well prepared before coming to the Duke's Mansion.

"Since I've come to the Duke's Mansion, I've naturally left a backup plan. If I can't leave the Duke's Mansion alive, the news of you killing the Duke's daughter will spread throughout the capital, and my complaint will also be presented to the Dali Temple. The eldest lady was sued to the Dali Temple by her idiot parents before, and now she's being sued by me again. It will be difficult for the eldest lady to clear herself of her guilt."

Lin Yunfang smiled proudly. She had been in the palace for several years and was no pushover.

Ji Yunchu gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Yunfang, his hands holding the candlestick shaking with anger.

"How dare you threaten me."

"Miss, you and I are both helping the Imperial Concubine. If I die, and the Imperial Concubine knows, you will probably not be well."

These words struck Ji Yunchu's heart. Her body shook slightly, and she immediately put down the candlestick and shouted to the outside.

"Yuemei, go to my room and get five thousand taels."

Lin Yunfang was overjoyed and once again thought that Ji Anyu's idea was good. Next time her son had something to do, she would come to the Duke's Mansion to ask for money.

"Remember what you said, take the money and get out of here." Ji Yunchu glared at Lin Yunfang.

"Okay, okay." After Lin Yunfang got the money, she stopped pestering and quickly hired a carriage to rescue her son.

……

"Miss, Lin Yunfang has left the capital." Han Yan said softly.

Ji Anyu fiddled with the flowers in the vase and slowly curled her lips.

It happened so fast. It can be seen that Lin Yunfang and Ji Yunchu had a very pleasant conversation. Ji Yunchu was blackmailed with a lot of money, and the amount should not be small. It makes me happy just thinking about it.

"Have someone keep an eye on the city gate. Lin Yunfang will be back."

"Yeah!" Han Yan did not question Ji Anyu's words. During the time they spent together, every task the young lady arranged would be useful later and not in vain.

"Miss, the third lady will go to the pharmacy tomorrow." Qiao Xin walked into the house.

Han Yan was puzzled, "Why is she still going? Hasn't she already been there?"

"Maybe she suspects that the baby is not lost, and she wants to see the doctor again to confirm it." Ji Anyu sat down and took a bite of a dessert. "Let's go tomorrow too."

"Ah."

The next day, Ji Anyu did not dress up, but changed into a shabby carriage.

The carriage stopped in the corner diagonally opposite the pharmacy. Ji Anyu did not get off the carriage and asked Han Yan to do it.

In less than half an incense stick of time, Han Yan came back happily.

"Miss, it's all settled. Miss San is convinced that her baby is gone. The doctor said that Miss San is in good health and doesn't need to take the pregnancy-preserving medicine."

"Well, well done." Ji Anyu was very satisfied that Han Yan was becoming more and more steady in her work.

"Miss, when the baby is older, this pregnancy will be very stable, and there is no need to worry about miscarriage."

Although Han Yan didn't know why the young lady wanted to help Ji Qinqin protect the fetus, she naturally had to pay attention to what the young lady cared about.

"Ji Anyu, are you pregnant?"

Shen Jing stood behind Han Yan in shock and excitement. He happened to hear the last words Han Yan said.

Han Yan turned around and saw the person coming, and quickly covered her mouth. It was over. She didn't notice that there was someone behind her when she was talking.

Why does this person walk without making any sound?

When she saw Shen Jing trying to get on the carriage, she stretched out her hand to stop him and looked at him warily.

The collar under the back of the neck was lifted up by the bamboo brake.

"What are you doing? Let me go."

Zhusha said speechlessly, "What does the master's words have to do with you?"

He swiftly put Han Yan aside, helped his young master onto the carriage, then clasped his hands together and glanced at Han Yan proudly.

The two stared at each other.

In the carriage, Shen Jing looked at Ji Anyu's belly, which seemed to be a little bulging.

"You...you are really pregnant?"

Ji Anyu lowered her head and touched her belly, "No, who told you that I'm pregnant?"

"Don't lie to me. I heard everything you said to your maid just now. Why didn't you tell me that you were pregnant?"

Shen Jing suddenly became unhappy. After all, he was the father of the child.

Then he looked conflicted, wondering whether to keep the child or not.

"Ji Anyu, do you really want this child?" If she did, he would stay.

Shen Jing kept talking, not giving Ji Anyu any chance to interrupt.

"Since we have a child, we must give him a legitimate identity. He is my first child and the future prince of the Zhongwang Mansion. So, let's get married."

He tried his best to survive and protect them and their child.

The corners of Ji Anyu's eyes twitched speechlessly. She wanted to get pregnant quickly, but she didn't.

"My Lord, I am not pregnant. You heard it wrong."

"You are not pregnant, then who is pregnant?" Shen Jing's mood fluctuated greatly. He finally accepted that Ji Anyu was pregnant, but in the end she was not!
"My sister Ji Qinqin is pregnant."

"Wei Luoyan's? He got it right in one try!"

Shen Jing felt like there was something wrong with him. He actually felt lost and regretful, and couldn't help but wonder if he really had a bad life that night?
Wei Luoyan seemed even worse than him, yet he could actually make Ji Qinqin pregnant.

"What are you thinking?" Ji Anyu explained helplessly, "Wei Luoyan and Ji Qinqin have only been together for a few days, how could she get pregnant so quickly?"

Shen Jing's mood suddenly brightened, his eyebrows curved into crescents. Wei Luoyan just couldn't do it.
