These four simple words made Fang Rou's heart sink to the bottom in an instant.
"My Lord, I want to get used to it, but it's natural for a mother to miss her child. I really can't help it." She looked at the Lord hesitantly, tears gradually wetting her eyes. "It's like a son missing his father and can only cry secretly under the covers."
Lu Jing could imagine Kang Ge's chubby body curled up in the quilt, covering his hands and crying secretly.
I didn't dare let the servants outside see it for fear of being looked down upon.
I didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that the teacher would blame me and say that a real man doesn't shed tears easily!
Isn't this how he lived when he was little?
Fang Rou finally touched Lu Jing's heart, but he was not shaken. He just softened his tone and said, "Just bear with it for now. When there's a chance, I'll find a way."
He will find a way and take this matter to heart.
Fang Rou achieved her goal temporarily, and when she spoke again, she acted as if nothing had happened and made Lu Jing feel comfortable.
But after he left Fang Rou, Xiao Tao followed him secretly.
When he came back, his expression was not very good, "My Lord, I went to Hong Yi Niang's place."
The servants all said that the most favored person in the mansion now was Concubine Hong.
No matter how busy the Marquis was every day, he would always take time to visit Aunt Hong.
Even if I do nothing, just chatting with Aunt Hong or taking a walk with her, I still enjoy it.
Because Lu Jing had privately asked the doctor, if a pregnant woman is in a good mood, it will also be beneficial to the fetus in the belly. And companionship can relieve many of the anxieties in the pregnant woman's heart.
Lu Jing felt that he was the most important person in Zhu Hong's heart, so his company was definitely the best.
So no matter it is windy or rainy, he will go there regardless of the weather.
"Finally gone!"
Seeing Lu Jing leave, Liu Lu came over. As soon as she came in, she sent everyone away, leaving only her and Zhu Hong to chat in the room.
"Sister, the Marquis comes here every day. Will something bad happen then?" Liu Lu was a little worried. According to their plan, it would be best if no one noticed them later.
Now that Lu Jing comes here every day, everyone in the mansion is keeping an eye on this place, and many things are difficult to handle.
Seeing Zhuhong's belly getting bigger and bigger, Liulu became extremely anxious.
Even though everyone now said that Lu Jing valued his sister and the baby in her belly very much, she did not feel any joy.
On the contrary, I became even more anxious.
She is afraid of something happening!
"Don't worry. The more this situation happens, the more you need to stay calm. Otherwise, something bad will happen." Zhuhong herself didn't look anxious at all, as if the pregnant person was Liulu.
This child, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, must be a boy!
She has made so many preparations, no one can stop her from moving forward.
Even Lu Jing can't do it!
"Don't worry, we'll find a way when the time comes. Besides, the Marquis is just feeling fresh right now. It's too early to tell how long he can hold out."
Liu Lu was a little suspicious, and Lu Jing wanted to lie on his sister's belly every day to listen to whether the baby inside moved.
That's it, is it just a temporary novelty?
Zhu Hong just smiled without saying anything. If Lu Jing was a new father, he might be able to keep this excitement going.
But obviously, this was not his first time.
Let’s not talk about Lu Yan, who was born to the mistress. Although he later became mute, it is said that this prince was a well-known child prodigy before he became mute.
That was his first child, so naturally he poured all his energy into it.
Moreover, Lu Ankang's identity... Zhu Hong still has doubts about it.
Especially after so many things happened, how could Lu Ankang, who was so favored in the Marquis' Mansion, die so easily?
After his death, Lu Jing's behavior was too dull.
Although people outside thought that Lu Ankang was just an adopted son of the Marquis's Mansion, Lu Jing's reaction was normal in their eyes.
It’s not your biological child, so why should you be sad?
But Zhuhong felt that it was precisely because of this that it was abnormal!
When Lu Ankang was in the mansion, he even had the upper hand over Lu Yan, the prince. As adopted sons, his treatment in front of the old lady and Lu Jing was completely different from that of Lu Changchuan, the adopted son.
Is Lu Ankang really dead?
This question has actually been lingering in Zhuhong's mind.
Whether it was Lu Jing or Fang Rou, who cared particularly about Lu Ankang, their indifference after Lu Ankang's death was really too abnormal.
The only thing she could think of was that Lu Ankang was not dead at all!
That's why they can be so calm and unperturbed.
But the situation at that time was that only Lu Ankang's death could break the deadlock. So it was very likely that Lu Ankang was hidden by them!
If that's the case, she has to consider a second option.
If the child she gave birth to was not the only healthy child in this marquis's mansion, then she would have to fight her way through the siege to earn a place.
This is his life, and also my own life!
"Liu Lu, send more people to keep an eye on Concubine Fang. Now that the Marquis is often visiting me, she's definitely going to lose her temper," Zhu Hong whispered. "Her impulsive nature is our best advantage."
At the same time, he also advised: "In this respect, you are the same as her."
The joy on Liu Lu's face immediately turned into disappointment. She felt a little aggrieved. Hadn't she changed?
But compared to her sister, she does seem a little impulsive.
Moreover, several times, things almost went wrong.
So Liu Lu didn't make any excuses this time, and replied obediently: "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, sister, I will definitely get it done this time!"
She doesn't want to hide under her sister's wings all the time, she also hopes to be able to help her sister solve her problems.
Moreover, if Fang Rou was provoked, Liu Lu was afraid that she would cause trouble and affect her sister.
So the people she sent were the ones she trusted the most.
He repeatedly warned Fang Rou to record her every move, not even missing a small thing like drinking water!
She just didn't believe that she couldn't find anything to hold against Fang Rou!
As the saying goes, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must always be on guard against others. Zhuhong asked Liulu to send someone to keep an eye on Fang Rou in advance because she was worried that she would do something impulsive out of jealousy and affect their plans.
But unexpectedly, the person staring at it discovered an unexpected surprise!
"Madam Hong and Madam Fang went out again. They said the old lady was not feeling well, and asked to go to the temple on the mountain to pray for her. But our people followed her and saw that she had not gone to any temple at all, but to the farm outside the city!"
"Zhuangzi on?"
Zhuhong and Liulu looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
What is hidden in the manor that made Fang Rou hide her tracks so carefully and sneak into it?
Could that be the answer they are looking for?
