Chapter 171 Pregnant?

He and his sister traveled through time, so they naturally couldn't know about it, otherwise they would think they were evil spirits, so they would ask a Taoist priest to perform a ritual and confuse people. Who knows what the consequences would be.

Without confirming whether Xue Yi knew about it, he would not take the initiative to bring it up.

"Of course, I only have this one sister."

Xue Yi knew that Lu Zhaomian had no sister, and he had never heard of a sister who had been lost for many years.

He also doubted it, but Jun, who was so cautious, believed it without a doubt, so he began to doubt that he was being too suspicious.

However, Jiang Qibai's words that night made him doubt Jiang Qibai's status again.

"Mr. Lu finally found his sister, but he didn't take her back to meet his parents?"

Jiang Qibai paused in his drinking. He had never mentioned these things since he got along with Xue Yi, and now he suddenly brought it up, so he must be suspicious.

He looked at Xue Yi with a smile on his face, "Mr. Xue, you don't know that I have known my sister, but I didn't tell my parents, and..."

Xue Yi asked, "And what?"

Jiang Qibai smiled, "And there are many things that can't be explained with just one mouth, but I am very happy to have known my sister."

Xue Yi was stunned, and he always felt that Jiang Qibai had something else to say.

Jiang Qibai raised the wine glass in his hand, "Mr. Xue, drink."

Xue Yi came back to his senses and raised the wine glass in front of him, "Drink."

Jiang Qibai put the wine glass to his lips, glanced at Xue Yi, and raised his head to drink it all in one gulp.

Jinling is farther from Luoyang than Yangzhou, and Jiang Youning has been eating and sleeping all the way.

Xie Jing looked at Jiang Youning who was sleeping in the room, his eyes fell on her belly, he stretched out his hand and pinched it, it was soft, unlike his belly which was hard.

Jiang Youning was originally in a light sleep, with a hand pinching her belly, it was hard not to wake up.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xie Jing staring at her belly without blinking, and that hand had no intention of stopping.

She lowered her head to look at her belly, the hand under her clothes was twitching, causing her clothes to move with it.

[Why do you like to pinch your belly like a child? My cousin's child is only one year old, and he likes to pinch my cousin's belly the most.]

Xie Jing: "..."

Seeing that she woke up, he withdrew his hand.

"Wake up."

Jiang Youning stretched and looked up at Xie Jing, "General, when will we arrive in Luoyang?"

Xie Jing said, "It will take three more days."

Jiang Youning was still a little excited to think that she would arrive in Luoyang in three days. She had not tasted the specialties and delicacies of Luoyang yet.

She opened the curtain and looked outside. She saw the carriage in front. Gu Changyu and Xie Susu were riding in a carriage.

Xie Jing was sitting behind Jiang Youning. Looking outside, he saw his parents' carriage. Now his parents have a good relationship, which proves that his decision to find his father was right.

Three days later, he arrived in Luoyang City.

Jiang Youning heard the noisy hawking and opened the curtain with curiosity. A fragrant smell wafted in, making her drool.

Looking at the stalls on both sides of the street, there were all kinds of delicious food.

Xie Jing saw the stalls outside through the gap, and then saw that Jiang Youning had been staring at them, so he knew that she was greedy.

He ordered: "Leng Xiao, go buy some."

Jiang Youning saw Leng Xiao dismount to buy, and his eyebrows curved with joy, "General, you are really considerate."

It was the first time that someone used the word "considerate" to describe Xie Jing, and it felt a little strange.

Seeing her curved almond eyes, he thought it was nothing.

Leng Xiao was always very efficient in his work. He bought the food in a short while and handed it in through the window.

Jiang Youning took the food wrapped in lotus leaves and went back into the carriage.

When the lotus leaves were opened, the fragrance filled the carriage.

Jiang Youning picked up a piece of fried cake and put it in her mouth and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and tasted sweet and delicious.

She stuffed the rest of the fried cake into her mouth, picked up another piece and handed it to Xie Jing, "General, it's delicious."

Xie Jing looked at her with a large piece of fried cake in her mouth. Not only did her cheeks bulge, but her mouth, which was not big to begin with, also opened very wide.

He glanced at the fried cake in her hand, reached out to take it, put it in his mouth and started eating.

Jiang Youning saw him eat, and then she ate the fried cake in her mouth.

After driving for a while, the carriage stopped in front of Gu's house.

Jiang Youning got off the carriage with the help of Xie Jing, looked up at the house in front of him, and found that it was bigger and more luxurious than Gu's house in Jinling.

The stone lion at the door was baring its fangs and claws, the vermilion lacquered door was open, and a row of people were standing at the door.

Gu Changyu came down with Xie Susu, and the leading man came up to greet them.

The man who was speaking was Gu Changyu's second uncle, Gu Qinghai. He had gray hair, looked to be about sixty years old, and looked quite majestic.

"Welcome the master and the lady back."

The people behind him lowered their brows and nodded, "Welcome the master and the lady back."

Gu Changyu lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Susu, "Let's go in."

Xie Susu nodded and followed Gu Changyu in under everyone's gaze.

Xie Jing followed closely with Jiang Youning.

Before Gu Changyu came back, he had already announced that he was going to get married and had a son. Although the family didn't understand, Gu Changyu was the master of the family, so they could only do it.

In the main hall, Gu Changyu led Xie Susu down from the throne.

The housekeeper asked the maid to make tea.

Xie Jing stood aside, holding Jiang Youning.

The main hall was full of people, all looking at Xie Susu and Xie Jing with curiosity.

Gu Changyu glanced at Xie Susu and introduced her to everyone again.

"She is Xie Susu, the wife I always wanted to marry. Twenty-four years ago, I lost her. She raised my son alone and suffered a lot."

Gu Changyu looked at Xie Jing, "He is my son."

In fact, before Gu Changyu introduced him, they guessed that Xie Jing was Gu Changyu's son.

The two of them really look too much alike.

Gu Qinghai led everyone to congratulate Gu Changyu, "Congratulations, master."

After dealing with these things, Gu Changyu took Xie Susu and Xie Jing to see the old lady.

The old lady was sixty years old and lived in Fuyuan.

When Gu Changyu came back, someone went to inform the old lady.

Gu Changyu took Xie Susu into Fuyuan, and Aunt Tan was already waiting there.

"Master, the old lady is already waiting inside."

Gu Changyu looked down at Xie Susu, "Let's go in."

"Okay." Xie Susu was a little nervous as it was her first time meeting her mother-in-law.

The old lady sat on a chair, drinking freshly brewed tea while waiting for someone.

When Gu Changyu came in, he took Xie Susu and the others to greet the old lady.

"Mother."

"Grandma."

The old lady looked up at her son, "Get up."

Gu Changyu stood up, took Xie Susu and introduced her to the old lady, "Mother, she is the Susu I told you about before. I found her when I went to Yangzhou this time."

More than 20 years ago, Gu Changyu was urged to get married more than once, and Susu was mentioned.

But she was never found, and her old man was seriously ill, so Gu Changyu was forced to marry the daughter-in-law they had chosen.

The old lady looked at the woman next to her son, who looked very beautiful, and it was no wonder that her son had been thinking about her for so many years.

I thought she couldn't find her, but after so many years, she was still found by her son. It's

a pity that her family background is not good.

Xie Susu stepped forward alone to greet her, "Mother."

The old lady did not show too much joy. Because her son had always refused to continue his marriage and take a concubine, no one would be happy.

Xie Susu retreated to Gu Changyu's side.

Gu Changyu knew that the old lady didn't like Susu very much. He glanced at Xie Jing and Jiang Youning and continued to introduce them: "Mom, he is my son, Jing'er, and she is my daughter-in-law Youning."

Xie Jing and Jiang Youning stepped forward to greet them, "Grandma."

The old lady looked at her grandson in front of her. He looked very much like her son when he was young.

Before seeing Xie Jing, the old lady still suspected that the son born by Xie Susu might not be her son. After not seeing her for so many years, who knew whether Xie Susu would have an affair with other men?

Now that she saw Xie Jing, she could confirm that he was her son. Only biological children could look so alike.

It's just that he wasn't raised by her since he was a child, so the relationship is not deep, but this is her first grandson, so she still likes him.

"Jing'er looks a lot like your father."

Gu Changyu said with a smile: "Mom, it's because Jing'er and I look alike that we had the opportunity to meet each other this time when we went to Hangzhou."

The old lady also felt that it was easier to find the father and son because they looked alike.

"It's good that you found him. Jing'er is so big now."

The old lady looked at Jiang Youning next to Xie Jing. She didn't look very old. It was probably not long since the marriage.

"Mother Tan." Mother Tan

immediately understood, took out the red envelopes prepared in advance, walked to Xie Jing, and handed one of them to him and Jiang Youning.

Then she handed the other red envelope to Xie Susu.

Xie Susu looked up at Gu Changyu holding the red envelope, he looked down at her, and the two smiled at each other.

After meeting the old lady, Gu Changyu took Xie Susu back to the room to rest.

Xie Jing and Jing Youning were taken to Linyuan by the housekeeper.

When no one was around, Jiang Youning opened the red envelope in her hand, and it was 1,000 taels of silver, not bad.

Xie Jing handed the red envelope in his hand to her, "Here you go."

Jiang Youning liked Xie Jing's generosity, so she was not polite and took the red envelope. After opening it, it was also 1,000 taels of silver.

It meant that she had 2,000 taels, not bad.

Xie Jing saw her smile with a frown, a little helpless, "Money is something outside of the body."

Jiang Youning said: "The general regards money as dirt, I can't compare with him. Money can buy delicious food. Although money is not omnipotent, but without money, it is absolutely impossible."

Xie Jing heard that she was a little bit reasonable.

The wedding was in three days, and this wedding was more grand than the one in Jinling.

Firecrackers rang, and the guests were full.

Jiang Youning was happy that she could have another wedding banquet.

There was still a difference between the wedding banquets in Luoyang and Jinling. The eating habits were also different, and each dish was different.

Jiang Youning didn't even bother to watch the scene of Gu Changyu and Xie Susu getting married. She was already dazzled by the delicious food in front of her.

After Xie Jing saw his parents being sent to the bridal chamber, he lowered his eyes to look at Jiang Youning, who was eating heartily. People who didn't know would have thought that she had been hungry for several days.

No one dared to object to Gu Changyu marrying a wife, but a few people in the family were not happy when he brought such a big son back.

Although Gu Changyu had a wife, she died early and failed to give birth to a son or daughter for Gu Changyu.

There were no concubines, not even a bastard.

As long as Gu Changyu died, they would have the opportunity to inherit the position of the head of the family.

Now that he brought a son back, even if Gu Changyu died, he still had a son to inherit the position of the head of the family.

"Maybe, that one isn't his son?" The speaker was Gu Changqi, the third child of the Gu family.

"But, they are so alike, no one would believe it even if they questioned it." Gu Changji hesitated.

Gu Changqi originally thought that Gu Changyu had no plans to get married, and as long as he died, he could become the head of the family.

Now he is not only getting married, but also has such a big son, which makes him unwilling.

Jiang Youning ate a lot this time, and was carried back by Xie Jing.

"No matter how much you like to eat, you can't eat too much." Xie Jing knew that it would be uncomfortable to fight if you eat too much, and it must be uncomfortable to see Youning's bulging belly.

Jiang Youning touched her belly, raised her head and looked at Xie Jing, "It's okay, it will be fine soon."

Xie Jing shook his head helplessly.

Gu Changji saw Xie Jing and Jiang Youning and reminded them, "Isn't that eldest brother's son and daughter-in-law? Why are they still holding them?" Gu Changqi

looked over and saw Xie Jing holding Jiang Youning, with Jiang Youning touching her belly. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Could she be pregnant?"

Gu Changji took a closer look. He was already a father and had seen his wife touching her belly like this.

"She should be pregnant, otherwise why would she be holding her in broad daylight? I heard that they have been married for some time."

Gu Changqi thought that Gu Changyu had a son and might have a grandson, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Jiang Youning lay in bed. No matter how Xie Jing asked her to get up and take a walk to digest her food, she just didn't get up.

"You're full, it's not good to exercise."

Xie Jing said, "I don't want you to exercise, get up and walk around."

Jiang Youning said, "No."

Xie Jing really couldn't do anything with her, so he could only let her go.

The next day, Xie Jing knew that Jiang Youning had never been to Luoyang, so he took her to the street to buy food early in the morning.

The prosperity of Luoyang City is no worse than that of Jinling. Different delicacies, because of their freshness, can attract Jiang Youning's attention.

Jiang Youning is the kind of person who wants to try anything that looks delicious. Only by tasting it can you know whether it tastes good or not.

She also wants to try things that don't look good. Maybe they don't look good, but they taste good?

In short, they can't be missed.

Xie Jing followed behind, responsible for paying the money and carrying things.

Jiang Youning was eating a steamed noodle soup when someone suddenly rushed over from the opposite side and bumped into Jiang Youning.

Just when he was about to hit her, Xie Jing quickly hugged Jiang Youning into his arms.

The person who was hit had no time to dodge and directly hit the wall beside him, and his head was bleeding, attracting a group of people watching the excitement.

"Is this guy a fool? He hit the wall?"

"Isn't he a fool? Who is walking like a madman?"

Jiang Youning was still in shock, with a big mouthful of steamed noodle soup in her mouth, and was protected in Xie Jing's arms.

After reacting, Jiang Youning turned around and took a look at the man. He was a very ordinary-looking man, the kind that would not be easy to find in a crowd.

But the body was very strong and he ran so fast. If they really bumped into him, he would probably knock her away.

Xie Jing glanced at Leng Xiao and walked back with Jiang Youning.

Leng Xiao carried the unconscious man on the ground and left.

On the way back, six men in black suddenly appeared, each holding a big knife, and swung at Xie Jing and Jiang Youning without saying a word.

Good morning, babies!
