Chapter 498 Asking for Money



After hearing this, Aunt Zhang frowned slightly, looked at Xu Miaomiao beside her, and said, "Madam Xu, Liu Juan is pregnant and she is also a member of our Xu family. Why are you so harsh? Of course, I also know that you and Gu Yuanniang are sisters, but now Liu Juan is just greedy. You should buy the same thing for her, otherwise people will inevitably say that you are biased."

Xu Miaomiao sighed when she heard this, and nodded immediately: "Madam is right, I will correct this phenomenon in the future, and will never let Madam Liu suffer any grievances."

When Liu Juan heard this, she smiled slightly, looked at him and said, "No, no, no, madam, you misunderstood. I have never suffered any injustice, and my mother-in-law Xu's family has been very good to me."

Liu Juan immediately started to defend herself, but for some reason, her defense seemed so weak. Madam Zhang patted Liu Juan's hand in comfort and said, "Alright, no matter what your situation is, I just want Madam Xu to treat her equally, but that's impossible. I just ask Madam Xu to take care of Liu Juan because she is pregnant with Qingshan's child."

When Xu Miaomiao heard this, she nodded and responded to such a big lady.

After finishing their meal, everyone returned to the mansion early. This evening, perhaps because the matter of Bingsu La was not very pleasant, Gu Yuanniang was silent and said nothing. She only smiled slightly when Xu Qingshan looked at her. Xu Miaomiao also refused to say much. As soon as they entered the mansion, Liu Juan suddenly stopped and froze in place. When Madam Zhang saw him stop, she immediately looked back and asked, "What's wrong?"

"For some reason, my stomach actually aches a little."

When Mrs. Zhang heard Liu Juan say this, she immediately became nervous and said, "Hurry, hurry back to the house and find a doctor."

"Madam, don't be too nervous." Liu Juan said immediately: "Besides, isn't Madam Xu the best doctor in Bai County? With her around, I'm sure nothing will happen to me."

"How can this be possible!" Mrs. Zhang said anxiously, obviously very worried.

Gu Yuanniang, who was standing by, lowered her head slightly when she heard this. Madam Zhang first asked Xu Miaomiao to be fair and give Liu Juan a share of what Gu Yuanniang had. Unfortunately, wasn't she so biased herself? Just because Liu Juan was someone she had found, she hurt Gu Yuanniang so unscrupulously.

Pregnant women seem to become more sensitive, but Xu Qingshan was willing to coax her despite her little thoughts. He took Gu Yuanniang into his arms, touched her shoulders, and whispered in her ear: "You just ate a lot of ice cream. I'll make you a cup of tea when we get home. You can drink it and fall asleep."

Hearing Xu Qingshan's love, Gu Yuanniang also laughed, and the gloom just now was completely dissipated, leaving only a touch of sweetness in her heart.

The look on their faces made Madam Zhang standing by feel upset.

He frowned and glared at Gu Yuanniang and said, "It's already so late, why don't you come over and see Liu Juan!"

When Liu Juan heard this, she pretended to have unbearable abdominal pain and immediately squatted down, almost falling to the ground. When Xu Miaomiao saw this, she immediately frowned, looked at Xu Qingshan on the side, and said, "Hurry up and help her into the inner room. I'll check her carefully."

Seeing Xu Qingshan still standing there motionless, Madam Zhang was immediately dissatisfied and pulled Xu Qingshan: "I told you to move, move quickly, why are you still standing there? Do you really want to piss me off to death?"

After hearing this, Xu Qingshan let go of Gu Yuanniang's hand. Gu Yuanniang shook her head and walked aside to make way for them. She helped Liu Juan up and took her to the back room. As soon as Liu Juan sat down, Xu Miaomiao's hand immediately reached out and kept moving over his pulse.

Liu Juan also immediately looked at Xu Miaomiao anxiously, with a worried look on her face: "How is Madam Xu? Is the baby in your belly okay?"

Xu Miaomiao shook her head slightly and said, "It's nothing. I just caught a cold these days. Plus, I ate a bowl of ice cream today, so I must have caught a cold. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. You'll be fine after taking it for two days."

Madam Zhang was also relieved when she heard what Yan Zhi said, but she still pulled Xu Miaomiao with some disbelief and said, "The baby in her belly is fine, but why did she have such unbearable abdominal pain just now?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingshan immediately stepped forward and pulled Madam Zhang, saying, "Mom, Madam Xu has already said that it was because she was greedy and insisted on eating that bowl of ice cream, so this happened."

"What nonsense are you talking about? It's good for pregnant women to eat more. Besides, didn't Gu Yuan's mother eat the ice cream too? Why doesn't he seem to be okay?"

Everyone's expression turned cold when they heard what she said. No matter what, Gu Yuanniang was pregnant with Xu Qingshan's child, but it was obviously wrong for Madam Zhang to say that in public. Madam Zhang also realized that her words were a bit too much, and immediately said: "That's not what I meant. It's just that Liu Juan is already in the advanced stage of pregnancy, and I'm worried too. What if something happens to her?"

When everyone heard what he said, they were all silent.

Xu Miaomiao quietly left the pharmacy and left.

Xu Qingshan was still being pulled by Madam Zhang and stayed where he was, wanting her to spend more time with Liu Juan.

Xu Miaomiao waved her hand, and Xiao Si immediately came over and faced Xu Miaomiao.

Xu Miaomiao then put down the account book in her hand and asked: "How is the baby in Liu Juan's belly?"

Xiao Si bowed to Xu Miaomiao and then said, "Last night, Aunt Zhang was worried, so she asked a few doctors to check. The doctors said there was nothing wrong, so she was relieved. If the abdominal pain is gone."

Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao shook her head. This lady really cared about Liu Juan.

However, there was one thing he still didn't understand. When he took Liu Juan's pulse, there was no pulse of pregnancy. But for some reason, it came out at night. This matter has always been a question in his mind.

"Madam." Xiao Si looked at Xu Miaomiao hesitantly, as if he had something to say to her.

"Don't hesitate, just say what you want to say."

"There are two women at the door. They said they came to ask you for money. I have already discussed it with you last night. One of them is called Li Juan. She said that as long as she tells you her name, you will know it. Do you want to invite them in?"

Xiao Si looked at Xu Miaomiao and spoke.

Xu Miaomiao didn't take it seriously and smiled. She actually came so early. But when she thought about it, it made sense. If she didn't come so early, she would not be a member of their Wangjia Village.
