Chapter 204 205. Pregnant
This trip was much easier than the previous one. There was no freezing weather and no bumpy carriage. Jin Qianqian even felt that she had gained some weight in the more than half a month on the journey.
Gu Wenheng touched her waist under the cover of the quilt and said, "Where are you fat? You need to eat more and see if you can only touch the bones."
Jin Qianqian took a deep breath, "You still want to avoid touching bones? Then what kind of ball should I grow into?"
Gu Wenheng looked at her more delicate and fair face, which was basically the same as the appearance of the junior high school girl in his previous life. He couldn't help but reach out and touch it. "It needs to be rounder. Wait until the next stop for supplies and ask the butler to buy some more delicious food."
Jin Qianqian rolled her eyes at him and said, "I've been eating and sleeping all the time. I'm almost ruining myself."
On the way back, she felt like she was almost becoming a useless person. All the chores were contracted out to Sanqing, and the meals were prepared by the cook. She really managed not to touch her fingers with onion water, and with the addition of skin care products, do you think her face could not be delicate and fair?
"Madam, Miss Song wants to see you." Qinglan said softly while standing outside the car as soon as the car stopped.
"We can see him later when we have dinner. What did he talk about?" Since that day when Gu Wenheng threw out the divorce letter, Song Xiuniang became completely quiet. Except for following Gu Lejia when the car stopped to rest, she was like an invisible person at other times, never appearing in front of Gu Wenheng and her.
"No, she had to come and say it herself."
"I'll go down and take a look," Jin Qianqian glanced at Gu Wenheng, and seeing him nod in agreement, she lifted the curtain, and Qingmei and Qinglan helped her get off the carriage.
"Mrs. Gu," Song Xiuniang bowed slightly, but Jin Qianqian could feel the pride in her eyes.
Jin Qianqian didn't wonder for long before Song Xiuniang spoke up, "Can you help me arrange a carriage? I need to rest now."
Jin Qianqian raised her eyebrows, "Aren't you sitting in a carriage now?"
Song Xiuliang stroked his belly proudly, "I'm pregnant with that family's child. Even if Madam Gu has never conceived a child, she knows that the first three months are very important."
Qingmei and Qinglan gritted their teeth. Even though they were young, they could hear the malice in the words.
Jin Qianqian smiled and said, "Have you seen a doctor?"
Song Xiuniang's face froze for a moment, but she soon smiled again, "It should be close. This is the menstrual period that women need every month. I'm already two days late. This is related to the blood of the Gu family, so I can't neglect it."
Jin Qianqian rolled her eyes at the sky, "…" What does this have to do with me? If you have the guts, go find that guy named Gu.
Bah, you are looking for the culprit, Gu Lejia. What's more, this is not even confirmed yet, why are you showing off here?
"Mrs. Gu, do you want to make some arrangements first? It would be best if I and the Le family could ride in a separate carriage so that they can take better care of me." Seeing that Jin Qianqian did not answer and was still in a daze, Song Xiuniang urged.
"Qinglan, when it's time to rest at night, ask the housekeeper to call a doctor to check her pulse." After saying this, Jin Qianqian no longer paid any attention to the smug woman and turned to walk towards the carriage.
Song Xiuniang didn't expect that even after she said so, Jin Qianqian would still have such an attitude, but she glanced at the carriage in front and did not dare to stop the person.
But some people are not so discerning, and the sound arrives before the person does.
"Sister-in-law Gu, it's rare for you to come out for some fresh air, why don't you stay downstairs for a while?" Mrs. Zhou Liu held her belly and walked a little faster than usual. In a moment, she was in front of her.
Jin Qianqian pointed at the flag that was already fluttering in front of her and said, "I guess we can't have a good chat. The front of the team is already moving."
Zhou Liushi, "..."

As soon as Jin Qianqian entered the car, her face immediately fell.
"What's going on? Is the Le family causing trouble again?" Gu Wenheng was just resting with his eyes closed, and he really didn't notice what people were talking about outside.
"Congratulations!" Jin Qianqian said sourly, "Your Gu family has a new baby."
Gu Wenheng stroked her belly in surprise, "Really?"
Jin Qianqian raised her hand and slapped his hand away, "Humph, I'm not the only daughter-in-law in the Gu family. It's not even certain yet, and you're showing off in front of me."
Gu Wenheng understood what was going on immediately. "This has nothing to do with us. Even if she is really pregnant, it is a happy event for my sister-in-law's family. We don't have to be angry with them."
Jin Qianqian, "I'm not angry. How many people have stared at my belly along the way? I count your master's wife, but especially that Zhou Liushi, who just held her belly and wanted to show off to me. Don't you think she is tired?"
Gu Wenheng hugged the person directly in his arms, "Let's ignore her. Haven't you seen that every time she sees our convoy, her eyes are almost burning with anger? She just envies that you live a better life than hers."
"Why do you pay so much attention?"
"The malice in her eyes is too obvious. Senior Brother Zhou has quietly reminded her several times." Gu Wenheng didn't want to mention this matter, but this person was getting more and more outrageous and even blocked his way.
Jin Qianqian calmed down at this time, "Forget it, let's not talk about them. According to the distance we have traveled before, we should be able to find a place to stay tonight."
Although this carriage has been modified, it is not as comfortable as lying on a stable bed.

Knowing that Jin Qianqian and her family had booked another small courtyard, Zhou Liu looked down at the room number for the third-class room in her hand and felt bored.
Holding her five-month-old belly, she carefully sat next to Zhou Ping, "You and Gu Wenheng are brothers, but you didn't ask how they got rich? How did they suddenly become so wealthy?
For such a good thing, you don't even bother to lend a hand to your senior brother."
Hearing that his wife was here again, Zhou Ping's face was full of impatience, "I've already told you, this is the secret recipe his wife brought as a dowry, if you're envious, go back and ask your parents to give you a portion too.
When you compare yourself with others, you should also check whether you have the ability to compare with them. "
(This is what Gu Wenheng said to the public. Along the way, several fellow apprentices, including the master, asked him indirectly. He did not hide it and attributed the soap workshop that was recently popular in the city to Jin Qianqian's secret recipe for dowry.)
"You, you dislike me..."
Zhou Ping didn't want to attract attention, so he stopped her in a low voice, "Stop it. You've been finding faults with others all along the way. If others didn't do it for my sake, who do you think you are?
Since you can't help me, then don't cause me trouble. I still want to be good friends with Wen Heng, so don't make me an enemy. Otherwise, go back and learn some rules from my mother."
“…I didn’t do anything?”
Zhou Ping, "...eat first, don't let my son starve."
Zhou Liushi, "..."
