As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including Ms. Lin herself, was stunned. Is she pregnant? Why doesn't she know?
Su Qingyu couldn't help but think of her past life. Not long after her mother adopted Su Yuanche, she found out she was pregnant. But she had a miscarriage a month after she got married. After the miscarriage, her mother's health was not good and she passed away a few months later.
Now that I think about it, that child might have been killed because he blocked Su Yuanche's way. Gu Ruoyun's mother-in-law is cruel and ruthless, and she will definitely do such a thing.
Regardless of whether it was an accident or not, she would never let tragedy happen again.
When she heard that Lin was pregnant, Gu Ruoyun was the first to speak.
"This is impossible."
Su Qingyu frowned and looked at her, "What do you mean, cousin? It's a happy event that my mother is pregnant, so why do I express my aunt's expression as if I'm attending a funeral? Could it be that my cousin is not happy that my mother is pregnant?"
Gu Ruoyun forced a smile and said, "Glad, why haven't I heard of it before?"
"Cousin...it seems that I haven't entered Madam's room for a long time. Why is Madam suddenly pregnant?"
"There can't be... any misunderstanding here."
Although Gu Ruoyun did not say it directly, she suspected that Lin was not doing her duty.
Just imagine, if Marquis Pingning really did not enter Madam Hou's room, then the pregnancy would not be a happy event but a scandal.
Logically speaking, a cousin living in the Su family should not interfere in the affairs of the head of the house. Gu Ruoyun was really anxious. The title she was talking about was about to fly away, so she no longer cared about the etiquette.
But when these words were heard in Lin's ears, they became humiliating.
Before marrying into the Su family, Lin used to manage the family business with her father. At that time, the daughter of the Lin family, Young Dong, was famous all over the world, and her methods were no less generous than those of her brother who inherited the family business.
After marrying into the Su family, she kept in mind the rules of the Marquis Mansion and restrained her merchant behavior, but her pride and dignity could not be trampled upon.
Hearing what Gu Ruoyun said, Mrs. Lin's face darkened and she said sternly: "Cousin, be careful, it has nothing to do with you whether the Marquis enters my room or not."
"Since this is a sojourn, please let your cousin act like you are a sojourner."
"Come here, call the doctor."
A few words made Gu Ruoyun's face turn red and white.
Mrs. Lin was not a mean person, and she was usually as generous as the mistress of a family. This was the first time that she had been embarrassed by Gu Ruoyun in public.
The old lady and Su Chengye had no idea and could only wait for the doctor to diagnose their pulse.
Everyone didn't want to stand in the courtyard waiting, so they went to the side hall next to the ancestral hall and sat down according to the elders and younger ones.
Su Qingyu stood beside her mother, her eyes glancing at Gu Ruoyun and her daughter from time to time. Was she panicking now? Where is this?
The government doctor, Dr. Xu, came quickly. Dozens of pairs of eyes in the room stared at him to diagnose his pulse. Dr. Xu subconsciously wiped the cold sweat on his forehead that was not stained by sweat.
After almost two breaths, Dr. Xu withdrew his fingers, twirled his beard and said, "Congratulations, madam, on the pregnancy. It's almost a month. During this period, madam, please feel free to raise the baby and don't worry about it."
When Old Doctor Xu made the final decision, Lin and Su Qingyu's faces were filled with joy, but Gu Ruoyun's face fell.
All the relatives came forward to congratulate the old lady and Su Chengye. It is always better for a legitimate son to inherit the title than a bastard's. No family wants a bastard's son to inherit unless it is absolutely necessary.
After all the relatives left, only the old lady, Su Chengye, Lin, Gu Ruoyun, Cheng Rujin, and Su Qingyu were left in the side hall. The only person serving the old lady was Aunt Yuan.
Su Chengye looked at Su Qingyu, his face was gloomy, and he asked in a cold voice: "What on earth do you want to do? You started making trouble when you came back from the Shen family. Now, the Su family has completely become a joke."
Before Su Qingyu opened her mouth, Lin responded coldly, "Qingyu, what's wrong? My Lord, you are really strange today. You didn't say anything about the embarrassing incident, but you kept scolding your own daughter."
"You..." Su Chengye was choked and couldn't say anything to refute.
Su Qingyu said in her heart that it was his daughter who was causing trouble and embarrassment, so of course he had to protect her. A biological daughter is nothing. She was killed in the Su Mansion in her previous life, and he didn't stop her. He doesn't treat her as his daughter, and she doesn't have to treat him as her father.
"Grandma, my cousin represents the Su family when she goes out. If my cousin is embarrassed, the Su family is embarrassed."
"If we drive the person out now and cut off the relationship, the Su family can still get rid of this scandal."
Su Qingyu leaned down and whispered in the old lady's ear.
Mrs. Su subconsciously looked at Su Chengye, obviously moved by Su Qingyu's words.
Everyone present naturally heard what Su Qingyu said. Gu Ruoyun also looked at Su Chengye anxiously, "Cousin..."
Su Chengye said without even thinking, "No, my uncle was very kind to me back then. Now there is only one cousin left in my uncle's family. I must protect her and never be such a treacherous person."
If she hadn't known the truth, Su Qingyu would have wanted to build a loyalty memorial arch for him.
The words sounded nice, but Su Qingyu didn't buy it.
He continued: "My father doesn't want to be a treacherous person, so he wants to involve the Su family? It won't take tomorrow for this matter to spread all over the capital. My father is now the Minister of Household Affairs of the Third Grade, and there are no political enemies in the court. Shi Fengwen reported that there were two impeachment reports, what should my father do?"
"Also, Third Master Shen has already gone. The Shen family has countless political enemies in the court. Will those who want to take action against the Shen family start with this incident?"
In her previous life, Su Qingyu had been helping Shen Zhao deal with external affairs. After three years, she had learned a lot about state affairs.
Her words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake. The expressions of both the old lady and Su Chengye changed.
For any family, matters in the court are always top priority.
At this moment, Gu Ruoyun's face was filled with fear, as if one foot had been pushed out of the Su family's door. If the eldest lady of the Su family said one more word, she would be kicked out.
She can't be kicked out of the Su family, she still has to find a good future for her son and daughter.
Gu Ruoyun bit her lower lip tightly, a look of determination flashed across her eyes, and she knelt directly on the ground.
"Cousin, if it really affects the Su family, I am willing to leave. Just let me go back to my hometown in Fujian. I want to go to the grave of my deceased husband and ask why he left me alone."
When Su Chengye heard this, complex emotions suddenly appeared in his eyes.
He motioned to Aunt Yuan, who was beside the old lady, to help her up, and then said in a deep voice: "I said, my cousin cannot be driven away, everything will remain as usual. As for the marriage with the Shen family, I will find an opportunity to ask the Shen family uncle."
Su Qingyu was not angry when she heard what Su Chengye said. As she expected, Gu Ruoyun was not so easy to get out of the house.
What she said today was just to test the status of Gu Ruoyun's mother and son in Su Chengye's heart.
"Father, grandmother. There are too many things to worry about at home, and it is not easy for my mother to get pregnant this time. I want to send her to a hot spring village in the western suburbs to live for a while. As for the secular affairs that need to be taken care of in the house, I will take charge of it on my mother's behalf. a period of time."
Thinking of the turmoil two months later and its impact on the Lin family, Su Qingyu couldn't wait to take over her mother's dowry industry.
It’s not too late to start planning now, right?
