Su Lufu stared wide-eyed in surprise: "No way."

Despite what she said, she actually had some doubts. This had happened several times already. Could she really be pregnant?

Thinking of this, Su Lufu subconsciously touched her lower abdomen.

Seeing her reaction, Gao Xiyue thought her guess was probably right, so she quickly asked, "Sister, tell me, have you been having late periods lately?"

"Huh?" Su Lufu was taken aback. She hadn't paid attention to the menstrual cycle herself; it was always her maid Qiubai who kept track of it for her.

"Ah, what! Don't you want to know if you're pregnant or not?" Gao Xiyue really couldn't stand Su Lufu's coy and hesitant manner, it made her anxious.

Hearing her say that, Su Lufu stopped being coy and called her maid Qiu Bai over.

Qiu Bai entered the room: "Master, did you call me?"

Su Lufu nodded: "Qiu Bai, go and check if my period is late this month?"

Qiu Bai responded and left.

Gao Xiyue curtsied to Su Lu: "Congratulations, younger sister, on your pregnancy. You will surely be rich and prosperous in the future."

Su Lufu waved her hand: "It's not confirmed yet! What if she's not pregnant? Wouldn't it be too early to congratulate her?"

Gao Xiyue raised her head proudly: "Impossible, you're definitely pregnant, I'm sure of it."

Su Lufu teased her intentionally: "How can you be sure I'm pregnant? Have you ever given birth before?"

“Although I have never given birth, I saw my mother when she was pregnant with my younger brother and she looked just like you. She couldn’t eat, she was weak, and most importantly, she vomited. That definitely means she was pregnant.”

Su Lufu laughed: "I really hope you're right."

Just then, Qiu Bai returned.

Upon seeing Qiu Bai, Su Lufu immediately asked, "Qiu Bai, how are you?"

Qiu Bai said, "Master, according to the records, your period is indeed late."

Gao Xiyue shouted happily, "See? I told you the truth!"

Mrs. Su was both surprised and delighted. She felt that Mrs. Su was most likely pregnant, which was a wonderful surprise.

Madam Su placed her hand on her lower abdomen once more. There was a life there now. This child would be the Prince's first child, and also her future support. With him, her status in the Prince's mansion would rise.

Just as everyone was happy, Qiu Bai said, "Master, shouldn't we tell the Empress Dowager about this?"

Su Lufu nodded, raised her hand and said, "Okay, let's go now."

Gao Xiyue, fearing that Mingyue would make things difficult for Su Lufu, quickly said, "I'll go with you too."

Madam Su was initially worried that the Fujin might be unhappy if she found out she was pregnant, but with Madam Gao around, she felt more at ease.

The two arrived at the main courtyard together and met Mingyue.

"Your concubines, Lady Gao and Lady Su, greet the Empress Dowager." Lady Su and Lady Gao greeted Mingyu together.

"Get up. What brings you two here today?" Mingyue asked.

After speaking, she glanced at Gao Xiyue. She was just a princess, yet she dared to be late so often, relying on the prince's favor, and not pay her respects to the principal wife. Madam Su, on the other hand, was quite respectful and always arrived on time.

Su Lufu took a step forward: "I have come to tell you, Your Highness, that I felt nauseous just now and sent a servant to check my menstrual cycle records. They found that my period was late. I wondered if I might be pregnant. I dared not delay and came to tell you."
