326: The Secret Was Overheard

Su Zhi did not agree to Zhang Baozhu's request and directly said that she did not have such great ability. She said it very tactfully. Zhang Baozhu felt that Su Zhi might really not have such ability.

After hearing Zhang Baozhu's reply, Aunt Yue thought about the reply she had heard from her parents. She wondered if Su Zhi was really incapable, or if Shang had given her some benefit, which made her unwilling to contribute. She hoped it was the former, because if it was the former, it meant that Shang came back happily that day not because of the birth of the child. As long as it was not for this matter, she would not be in danger of endangering her position if she was happy for other things. She did not want the latter, because if it was the latter, her future would definitely be affected.

"Yue'er, don't be sad. We will definitely have a child in the future."

Zhang Baozhu saw Jia Yue'er lowering her head, thinking that she was sad and disappointed, and hurried to comfort her. In fact, how could he not be disappointed? He was also a man who was almost thirty years old. Other men of his age, if they got married early, their sons could get married in two years, but he didn't even have a child! Will the Zhang family's huge family business become ownerless in the future? Zhang Baozhu thought about it and felt anxious. It seemed that he had to go to the temple to worship again.

Jia Yueer hugged Zhang Baozhu's waist and said, "Master, God will definitely let us have our own children. I think the lady from the Shen family may have a way, but she won't say it."

"Why do you say that? Why didn't she say anything?"

Zhang Baozhu was stunned when he heard this. He straightened Jia Yue'er and looked into her eyes. He felt angry when he thought that the lady from the Shen family could obviously help him but didn't lend a hand.

Jia Yue'er stroked his chest as if to comfort him, and said, "Think about it, sister came back happily that day. She must have received help from Madam Shen. And she went to find dad. And dad and she didn't say anything to you. Does this mean that dad and sister both want you and sister to give birth to a son? Could they have asked Madam Shen to ask her not to agree to your request? Father-in-law likes sister, not me. He thinks that only sister is worthy of giving birth to the Zhang family's descendants. And sister must also want to give birth to her eldest son."

As Jia Yue'er spoke, she lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes with a pink handkerchief, as if she was crying sadly.

"Yue'er, don't feel bad!"

Zhang Baozhu saw that his beloved was in such pain, which was more painful than his own. He immediately held her in his arms and kept coaxing her. His face was gloomy. He thought Yue'er was right. He thought about the day when he asked about this matter, but his father was fooling him, and Shang Shi didn't say much. The two of them had joined hands.

Jia Yue'er felt Zhang Baozhu holding her hand tightly, and thought that Zhang Baozhu must have listened to her words. She smiled where Zhang Baozhu couldn't see, and thought to herself, it's not easy for you to leave me like this and give birth to Zhang's children!

"Grandpa, don't be angry with them. It's all my fault that I'm incompetent and can't please my father-in-law and let my sister be at ease and guard against me. But I will definitely find a way to let that Shen family lady help me think of a way to give birth to a child of yours. It would be best if the boy looks like you and the girl looks like me. What do you think?"

Zhang Baozhu looked at Jia Yue'er, who was looking at him with her rosy face, tears in the corners of her eyes. She looked as pitiful as a pear blossom in the rain. Listening to her considerate and gentle words, he became even more satisfied with her.

"Yue'er, you are always so nice. It's not that you are not good, it's that my father is too stubborn and Shang is too angry. And you blame me for not meeting you first. If I had met you first and married you as my first wife, you wouldn't have to suffer such grievances."

"Don't blame you. I am very grateful for meeting you. Don't worry about this matter. I will definitely find a way. I will definitely give you a lovely baby. But you must not stay at your sister's place all the time these days. You have to come to my place too. If I am not mistaken, your sister will definitely keep you there for a long time these days, just to give birth to a baby early. This can also prove that Madam Shen did give her the prescription."

"Yue'er, I will definitely come to your place often."

Zhang Baozhu comforted Jia Yue'er, thinking that his father was really a fool. He knew that he liked Yue'er more, but he didn't let her give birth to his child. Shang was already old, so how good would it be even if she gave birth to a child? It would definitely not be as smart, cute and healthy as Yue'er's child. Moreover, when he thought that even if he had a child, it was the result of his father and Shang's calculations, he was not happy even if he wanted another child.

Jia Yue'er was very happy to hear Zhang Baozhu's promise, and shyly moved her rosy lips towards him. Zhang Baozhu's eyes dimmed, and he hugged Jia Yue'er with one hand and pulled down the bed curtain with the other hand, covering up the spring scene in the room.

After that, Zhang Dafu asked Zhang Baozhu to go to Shang's room more often, so that he would not favor Jia Yue'er alone. He should go to each concubine's place, and Shang's place should be visited the most. Zhang Dafu even set a date for Zhang Baozhu, so that Zhang Baozhu and Jia Yue'er would not be able to sleep together for a long time. This made Zhang Baozhu believe Jia Yue'er's words. He thought, sure enough, his father really wanted Shang to get pregnant with the eldest son and grandson of the Zhang family. Shang must have really found a way to have children!

Zhang Baozhu was unhappy, but also very happy. If Jia Yue'er hadn't told him to stop caring, he would have gone to find Su Zhi again. And he believed that Jia Yue'er could find a way to get pregnant with his child. He was looking forward to Jia Yue'er and his child coming early, so he was not at all cordial when he went to Shang's house. He always sent him away hastily. Shang was not angry, because Zhang Baozhu had always been like this over the years, but he was even colder these days, which made her even more dissatisfied with Jia Yue'er, thinking that it must be her doing.

Jia Yue'er naturally couldn't use the identity of the daughter of Zhao Yang's elder sister to ask Su Zhi to examine her body. Finally, she thought of a way to pretend to meet Su Zhi by chance when she went to the town, and then took the opportunity to ask Su Zhi for a prescription. At this time, even if Su Zhi refused, it didn't matter, because Zhao Yang and others would come out at this time to help her speak. Zhao Yang would have enough ability to let Su Zhi help her.

Zhao Yang told Su Zhi that she lost money the last time she came to the town to make a payment, and it was Aunt Yue who helped her. She praised Aunt Yue and asked Su Zhi to help this kind-hearted woman.

Su Zhi watched as the Zhao family members kept praising Jia Yue'er, and thought to herself that they were really nice to Aunt Yue, even though they had only met a few times. Were they trying to curry favor with the rich?

Su Zhi finally said that she had no way to have children, and still said that the two women who were said to have been cured by her and became pregnant were only cured of their own illnesses, and she had no other panacea. She described the two women's situations in great detail, saying that one of them had irregular menstruation and the other was weak, and that they naturally became pregnant after their bodies recovered. She believed that everyone would think her statement made sense because it was indeed true.

Zhao Yang was very angry and scolded Su Zhi in front of others. As a result, Shen Zian got angry and told Zhao Yang that Su Zhi was his wife and a member of the Shen family, and he could not scold her even if she was Su Zhi's mother. Then he took Su Zhi away.

"Mom, you've gone too far this time.

Although Jia Yue'er was very unwilling, she also felt that Zhao Yang was indeed too much, and she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, thinking that Shen Zi'an was supposed to be her husband, but now he cares so much about Su Zhi. She wondered what this man would think if he knew that Su Zhi was not Zhao's sister at all? Jia Yue'er threw this idea out of her mind, thinking that this thing would never happen in her lifetime. She is now Jia Yue'er, not Zhao's sister, so Su Zhi can only be Zhao's sister. And when she thought that Su Zhi got happiness by taking advantage of her identity, she felt that Su Zhi should help her get the child she wanted.

"Mom, you must think of a solution again."

"Sister, don't worry, mom will definitely scold that damn girl again!"

Zhao Yang was frightened by Shen Zian's cold face just now. Now she came to her senses and cursed Su Zhi and Shen Zian. When she heard Jia Yueer's request, she immediately comforted her.

Jia Yueer got anxious when she heard this and said, "Mom, please stop calling me sister! It will be bad if others hear it!"

"Yes, yes, mother is wrong again. You are not my sister, but Yue'er. Alas, in my heart, you will always be my sister, my sweetheart."

Zhao Yang smiled and said that she loved Zhao Mei in the past because she was pretty. Later, although the fortune teller said that Zhao Mei had a bad fate and would be sent to a nunnery, she did not despise it because the fortune teller also said that as long as Zhao Mei lived outside until she grew up, she would have a good fate that would bring prosperity to her parents' family and her husband's family once she got married. That's why she loved Zhao Mei so much. And now it seems that the fortune teller did not lie. Zhao Mei really had a good fate. Look, isn't she now the most favored concubine of the wealthy Zhang family? As long as she has another son, she will definitely be the legitimate wife. At that time, the Zhang family will be more prosperous because of her, and their Zhao family will also prosper. She must help this concubine!

Jia Yueer felt annoyed when she saw Zhao Yang's flattering smile and heard her intimate words. For so many years, she could only see her parents once a year. She had no feelings for them and even had some resentment. If they hadn't sent her to a nunnery, she wouldn't be so lonely. After all, she was just a child thrown out by her parents. She didn't feel anything about their so-called love for her. If they hadn't found her and she had something to ask of them, she wouldn't have wanted to recognize them!

Jia Yue'er spoke a few more words to Zhao Yang and the others, then left.

The Zhao family also left. They didn't realize that their words had been heard by others in secret.
