Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 88 Fake Pregnancy
"Miss Xiao Er, you've been so good to me, I've always remembered it in my heart! Last time you said you didn't like having girls around me, so I dispersed them all after I got back, and I even prepared money for them to live on!"
Zhu Chengxi held a bowl of rice and ate while vaguely telling Xiao Ruge about the changes he had experienced during this period of time.
Mu Gu frowned and tapped him with his chopsticks, "Don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping!"
Zhu Chengxi shuddered with fear, nodded quickly, and then began to shovel rice into his mouth desperately.
Looking at Zhu Chengxi with amusement, Xiao Ruge didn't expect that he had actually changed. But it was better this way, so that he wouldn't harm other girls again.
In the past, Madam Zhu was anxious to find a wife for Zhu Chengxi because he got her cousin pregnant. However, the plan fell through because of her interference.
But I didn’t seem to hear anything about his cousin afterwards. If we were to judge by months, she should be at least six or seven months pregnant now, right?
"Where's your pregnant cousin?"
Xiao Ruge asked tentatively, and saw Zhu Chengxi stiffen and seemed a little afraid to look at her.
Mu Gu and Sun Yan who were standing by looked gloating after hearing this, and Mu Gu started to make sarcastic remarks first.
"Yes, I heard last time that you had a child. Is it that you haven't given birth to the baby yet? When the baby is born, you can have a full-month banquet. But you must tell me so that I can have a drink too!"
Zhu Chengxi's face turned red and blue, and he shook his head to deny it, "No, no, this is all nonsense!"
"Impossible? If it's not true, then why was Madam Zhu so anxious to find you a wife a while ago?"
Sun Yan asked him while using a serving chopstick to pick up food for Xiao Ruge and raised his eyebrows.
Mu Gu was not to be outdone when he saw this, and he picked up some lotus root slices and put them in Xiao Ruge's bowl.
Xiao Ruge lowered her eyes and took a look, then picked up a piece of vegetable with chopsticks and ate it, then looked at Zhu Chengxi curiously.
Zhu Chengxi sighed, and finally, like a broken jar, he glanced at Xiao Ruge and said, "My cousin is not pregnant at all. It's her parents who want to get close to our family and bribed the doctor to pretend that she is pregnant."
"Then how did you find out?"
Several people didn't expect such a thing to happen, especially Xiao Ruge, whose gossipy heart was burning, and she blinked her eyes to get to the bottom of it.
Now that the matter had been told, there was nothing that could not be known, so Zhu Chengxi told everything.
Ever since Xiao Ruge ruined Zhu Chengxi's good plans last time, no daughter from a good family dared to marry him.
My cousin's family kept urging her, but Madam Zhu really looked down upon their behavior, so she kept suppressing them and did not let them cause any trouble.
Until one day, the maid who was sent to monitor my cousin suddenly wrote to report that my cousin was not pregnant at all and had just had her period. Only then did I realize that her pregnancy was fake.
This made Madam Zhu very angry, so she simply gave a sum of money to my cousin's family and told them to settle down on their own.
Xiao Ruge bit the rice in her mouth, thinking that things didn't seem to be like this in her previous life.
At that time, Xiao Mingyue thought that the Chengyang Marquis Mansion was a wealthy place and Zhu Chengxi was a handsome man. But after she married into the family, she found out that she had been deceived.
The Chengyang Marquis Mansion was indeed a wealthy family, and Zhu Chengxi was also a handsome man. It was a pity that this handsome man did not like domestic flowers, but only wild flowers, and he went out to sleep with flowers and willows all day long.
In their previous life, the two of them had a huge fight over their cousin, and they even went back to the Xiao family to cry to Old Madam Xiao.
It was just that Old Lady Xiao was afraid of the power of the Zhu family and kept persuading her to be tolerant.
At that time, this cousin was pregnant and was taken into the backyard by Zhu Chengxi. How come things changed in this life?
It seems that with my rebirth, many things have really changed.
Several people finished their lunch during Zhu Chengxi's blunder. Seeing that Zhu Chengxi was reluctant to leave after finishing his meal, Sun Yan grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and dragged him out like a chicken.
"Hey? Don't drag me. I, cough cough... I can walk by myself, cough cough..."
Zhu Chengxi's neck was strangled by the collar, and he had difficulty breathing. His speech was intermittent and his face turned red.
Sun Yan acted as if he didn't hear anything and quickly disappeared out of the gate with the person in his arms.
Several servants who came with Zhu Chengxi hurriedly followed, staring at Sun Yan from behind, angry but not daring to say anything, which made Mu Gu laugh.
Zhu Chengxi was a man who would not give up once he made up his mind to do something. Even though he knew that Xiao Ruge might not like him, he still went to Xiao Ruge's place once in the morning and once in the afternoon every day.
Mu Gu and Sun Yan were so angry that they beat him up many times, but he remained unmoved. It was not until he followed Xiao Ruge back to Beijing and was locked up at home by Old Lady Zhu that he calmed down.
The first thing he did when he came back was to go to Ronghui Hall to pay his respects to Old Madam Xiao.
Xiao Ruge also brought a lot of fruits and big fish from the farm, which made Old Mrs. Xiao so happy that she was beaming with joy.
"Girl, just keep the things you brought back for yourself. I don't lack fruits here either."
Old Mrs. Xiao held Xiao Ruge's hand and acted very affectionately.
Xiao Ruge also spoke to her affectionately, "What you have here is yours! This is a little gift from your niece!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the absent-minded Xiao Mingyue beside him and said with a smile: "Fourth sister doesn't look very energetic, did you not sleep well last night?"
Lu Yu was going to return to the capital earlier than her. His anti-bandit operation was not completed this time, and he must have been scolded by his superiors. Xiao Mingyue must be heartbroken when she knew about this!
Xiao Mingyue didn't say anything after hearing what she said. She just held her forehead with her hand, looking a little uncomfortable.
"Yes, I read a book late last night, and I had a headache when I woke up this morning."
Old Mrs. Xiao knew what was going on with her. When she heard this, she just snorted, cursed her in her heart for being useless, and scolded her out loud.
"In that case, read less idle books in the future!"
Xiao Mingyue didn't dare to talk back, she stood up and bowed in response.
Seeing her daughter being scolded, Xu's face looked a little unhappy. She stared at Xiao Ruge for a long while, and asked with a fake smile: "Ruge is not young anymore, why don't you ask your great-aunt to help you find a good family? This woman, after all, has to get married!"
Xiao Ruge smiled calmly after hearing this, "No hurry, I am the only one left in our lineage. When I was young, my grandfather told me to find a son-in-law so that he wouldn't worry about me after I get married."
"Oh, it's not easy to find a son-in-law. Either his family is not well-off, or he is physically disabled. Otherwise, who would be willing to be a son-in-law from a good family? Ruge, I'm not saying anything bad, but your request is a bit too much!"
Xiao Ruge just smiled and said, "This is grandpa's last wish. As his granddaughter, I can't disobey it."
This one sentence made Xu speechless. In the end, it was Old Lady Xiao who clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Since it is your grandfather's last wish, we should abide by it."
