The Eldest Sister Who Struck It Rich

The entire village shakes their heads at Zhuang Qingning - an orphaned girl who, after recovering from illness, stubbornly registers as a female household head instead of living with her uncle.

Chapter 359 Pregnancy

"Are you living here now?"

"Yes." Zhou Daya smiled and nodded. "I found a place to live. I work in Sister Ning's workshop. I plan to build a house here when I make some money. I will live here with my grandmother."

"Since you are following Manager Zhuang, you will definitely be of good help. Recently, we have been assigned by Lord Ding to escort Manager Zhuang to Miao Zhuang every day. If you need any help, just let me know." Zhang Lin said with a smile.

"Sorry to trouble you, Brother Zhang." Zhou Daya narrowed her eyes and smiled.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Lin and Shen Quan said goodbye and left.

Zhuang Qingning went into the yard and called Zhuang Qingsui to go to Wen's house for dinner.

On the way, Shen Quan cracked his whip and asked, "Is this Miss Zhou the victim who was nearly thrown into the Cuiwei Lake by those two villains last time?"

"Yes." Zhang Lin nodded. "During that period, we couldn't find Miss Zhou and her grandmother. Lord Ding was really worried for a long time. Now that we know that they are safe, it's better to tell Lord Ding and let him rest assured."

Shen Quan nodded, and then laughed, "I just heard her say that she works here for Shopkeeper Zhuang, so she and Shopkeeper Zhuang are really destined to be together."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Lin was a little curious.

"Lord Ding was afraid of making enemies for Miss Zhuang and causing unnecessary trouble, so he didn't make it public at the time. It's normal that you didn't know about it." Shen Quan said, "Do you still remember the young girl with a veil covering her face at Cuiwei Lake?"

"I remember." Zhang Lin nodded, then suddenly realized, "You mean..."

"That's right." Shen Quan reminded, "But you just need to know about this, don't tell anyone else. Although the Qi brothers have been punished long ago and may not come back alive, they still have relatives and friends. If they are sensible, it's fine, but if they are confused, I'm afraid they will be resentful. If they knew that Miss Zhuang helped us so much, they might not dare to cause trouble to the government, but dare to cause trouble to Miss Zhuang."

"If we talk nonsense, it will cause trouble for Miss Zhuang, which is not good."

Zhang Lin nodded again to show his agreement, but glanced at Shen Quan again, "Hey, that's not right. Since you can't let anyone know about this, why are you telling me? If someone leaks the news later, won't it be my fault?"

"I'm telling you this out of kindness because I see that you have feelings for Miss Zhou, so that you can have some peace of mind. You actually want me to harm you? Oh, oh, oh, my kindness is always being taken for granted. You must never be a good person again!" Shen Quan suddenly became dissatisfied.

"What are you talking about? When did I have any feelings for Miss Zhou?" Zhang Lin argued.

"If you don't mean it, why are you blushing?" Shen Quan glanced at him.

This glance made Zhang Lin's face, which had just turned slightly red, suddenly turn red, and even the roots of his ears turned red.

"If you keep talking nonsense, when Miss Zhuang invites me to eat hot and sour noodles, I will eat your noodles as well." Zhang Lin said angrily.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me..." Seeing Zhang Lin like this, Shen Quan stopped joking with him and just drove the car with peace of mind.

Zhang Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the redness on his face gradually faded away.

This brat only knows how to talk nonsense!

But to be honest, Miss Zhou is actually a pretty good person... -- Dusk falls and the lights come on.

In Prince Qi's mansion, the servants were busy.

Looking at the lights and decorations in the palace and the table full of delicacies at the evening banquet, the gloom on Luo's face gradually dissipated and was replaced by a smile.

"Princess, why did you come out? It's windy outside, be careful not to catch a cold." Bi Tao hurriedly supported her.

"It's okay, come and take a look." Luo put one hand on Bi Tao's arm and said leisurely, "Is the prince back?"

"Just now the servant came to report that the prince is on his way back." Bi Tao said with a smile, "He also said that when the prince came back, he went to Babaozhai to buy the peach blossom cakes that the princess loved to eat. The prince treats the princess very well."

"You're so talkative." Luo scolded with a smile, but her smile was bright and sunny.

There was a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.

No matter how powerful those vixens out there are, they cannot compare to her, a thousand-year-old fox.

So what if he is a handsome and elegant courtesan or a talented woman in the capital? They are just using the same old tricks that are not worthy of being shown on the stage. They are dreaming of clinging to the high branch of the King of Qi and then becoming a phoenix on the branch?

Bah, dream on!

Those who are not presentable are just cheap people. If she dreams of becoming a princess, it depends on whether she has the means to do so!

Luo's hand unconsciously rested on her lower abdomen, and the corners of her lips raised.

If you want to cling to a man, you have to see what he wants.

Although the King of Qi was in his prime, he only had two sons. No matter how romantic he was outside, he still attached great importance to the matter of his offspring.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Although she had been a little frustrated during this period, as soon as she was told that she was pregnant, the King of Qi immediately became concerned and caring for her. His full care and love were once again shown to her.

We should also hold a banquet to celebrate her birthday.

He even called Chu Jinnian back to his house for dinner to show his respect for her.

Mrs. Luo didn't want to see Chu Jinnian. She hoped that Chu Jinnian would be as far away from the palace as possible. But when she thought of Chu Jinnian's sarcasm when he saw her frustrated at dinner a few days ago, Mrs. Luo felt that it was good for him to come back. It would just happen to let him see how proud she was now.

When Luo thought of this, she couldn't help but feel proud and raised her hand, "Where's Zhuo'er?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Jinzhuo had already come to her and called out in a crisp and sweet voice, "Mother."

Then he bowed straight and said, "I wish you a long life, good health and eternal youth. This is a coral I found outside. It is said to be the best for calming the mind. You have not been sleeping well recently, so I will give it to you as a pillow."

The child, who was less than ten years old, spoke so clearly, and his every move was very graceful, with some of the charm of the former King of Qi.

Seeing her son so outstanding, Luo felt more relieved, "Zhuo'er is thoughtful, mother likes him very much."

"Yes, the coral that the Second Young Master selected is excellent and dazzling. I can't take my eyes off it." Bi Tao smiled and said, "I will put the coral in the princess' bedroom first, so that the prince can have a look when he comes back."

"Okay." Luo nodded, "You guys go out first, I'll talk to Zhuo'er."

"Yes." Bitao led people to settle Shanhu, leaving only Luo and Chu Jinzhuo in the flower hall.

"How have you been these days? Are your studies going well?" Luo asked.

Chu Jinzhuo was studying at the Imperial College and was very busy every day. Luo hadn't seen him for two or three days.
