Lu was shocked when she heard this, "What did you say?"
The old general was also shocked.
Jin Xiyan said from the side: "Isn't it normal for my sister to be pregnant?"
"On the wedding night, Wen'er felt unwell and called a doctor for diagnosis, only then did we know that she was already one month pregnant," Yu Jingfeng explained.
Mrs. Lu was obviously dissatisfied with their hiding the truth from her. Even Jin Xiyan knew about it before her mother. "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Jin Xiwen caressed her belly with a gentle look, "We're going back home today, so we'll come and tell Daddy and Mom."
"You kid!" Although the old general blamed him, he was still happy in his heart. After all, he was going to have a little grandson. "Next time if anything happens, remember to inform me and your mother so that we don't have to worry!"
Jin Xiwen smiled obediently: "I know, Daddy."
Jin Xiyan was laughing like a fool, reaching out to touch Jin Xiwen's belly, "I'm going to be your aunt soon~ Let your aunt see what you're doing~"
Jin Xiwen smiled and let her touch it, "Silly sister, it's only been a month, how can you feel it out?"
Jin Xiyan smiled embarrassedly and stuck out her tongue.
There was laughter and joy in the front hall, but Wang's face looked unhappy.
She was already very jealous because Lu's daughter got married before her, and she married the richest man in Fu'ning, whose financial resources were so strong that even the government was wary of him.
Mrs. Lu actually despised her very much. Jin Xiwen was also a hardworking person. She got pregnant at first try. If the baby was a boy, Yu Jingfeng would be an only son.
In the end, the Yu family will still fall into the hands of Jin Xiwen and Lu.
Wang was secretly calculating in her mind. Although she appeared calm on the surface, her heart was actually already surging with undercurrents.
Jin Suting was drinking tea and leaning lazily in her chair. She was becoming more and more disdainful of pretending to be a lady from a wealthy family.
Jin Xiyan seized the opportunity and said, "Big sister, why aren't you talking? Are you unhappy that my second sister is pregnant?"
The old general frowned when he heard this. The atmosphere was good, but his third daughter was stirring up trouble again.
Jin Xiwen also looked at Jin Suting with schadenfreude. After not seeing her for a few days, her elder sister couldn't even pretend to be an older sister?
Jin Suting put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Daddy's tea is really delicious. Let's order this kind of tea next time."
Jin Xiyan was ignored and immediately became angry. "Jin Suting, why didn't you respond to my question?"
Jin Xiyan became intimidated when Jin Suting glanced at her. She continued, "You are neither an elder nor a member of the royal family. Do I need to reply to you?"
Jin Xiyan's face turned red and white, "So what you mean is that you won't reply to Daddy's words!"
Jin Suting suddenly laughed, "That's not what I meant. But you, before Daddy even said anything, you came to lecture me. Or have you already climbed over Daddy's head?"
Jin Xiyan's arguments are unreasonable, but she is better than her!
"You, you are talking nonsense!" Jin Xiyan wanted to find fault, but she didn't expect to get herself into trouble.
"That's enough," the old general said with a gloomy face, "Shut up, there's no deep hatred between sisters, just be quiet, if anyone sees you, you'll be laughed at!"
"Yes, Daddy." Jin Ting was flexible and obeyed obediently.
Jin Xiyan looked at the old general's expression and didn't dare to say anything more unpleasant. She secretly glared at Jin Suting and shut up obediently.
Mrs. Lu, who was watching the show from the side, laughed with gloating joy, but pretended to be worried. "Master, calm down. The kitchen is ready. Let's eat first."
Although Jin Suting was unwilling to flatter these people anymore, she couldn't go against food!
It is called a return banquet, but in fact it is just the whole family sitting around a table and having a simple meal.
The old general specifically ordered the kitchen to make the sweet and sour pork ribs that Jin Suting loved. Jin Suting sat in front of the dish and ate it with great delight.
But her attitude towards the old general was still not as close as before, which was what made Mrs. Lu happiest these days.
Jin Suting didn't know what was going on, but she was unhappy that the old general was on Jin Xiwen's side.
He wasn't his biological father after all, he was just a little bit nicer to him, and then a little bit nicer.
The sudden distrust made her feel particularly uncomfortable. Subconsciously, she thought that the old general should trust her.
Jin Suting didn't want to think about it anymore. She just wanted to live a peaceful life in Fuding, meeting the people she loved every day, eating the food she loved, and doing the things she loved.
When they were almost done eating, Yu Jingfeng was pulled into the study by the old general to talk, and Lu and Wang also left one after another.
The only ones left at the table were Jin Xiwen, Jin Xiyan, and Jin Suting, who was struggling with the last piece of sweet and sour pork ribs.
Jin Xiyan said to Jin Xiwen in a low voice with disdain: "How could the Ninth Prince like her when she looks like that?"
Jin Xiwen smiled gently, "Everyone has their own preferences."
Jin Xiyan, however, expressed disapproval and raised her voice, "Sister, you're too kind. The Ninth Prince is only attracted to her because of her status as the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion. If it weren't for this status, why would the Ninth Prince be with her?"
Jin Suting was halfway through chewing on the pork ribs when she heard someone gossiping about her again, and it was still related to the Ninth Prince.
"What are you two doing? Believe it or not, I will tear your mouths apart!" Jin Suting showed her claws.
"We didn't spread rumors," Jin Xiyan said with an innocent look.
"This is true," Jin Xiwen also chimed in, "I heard it with my own ears. The Ninth Prince came to the General's Mansion to propose marriage."
Jin Suting was confused. A marriage proposal? When did it happen? Why didn't she know about it?
Jin Xiyan sneered, "Sister, please don't make it sound so nice. This is clearly a power-for-sex transaction, not a marriage proposal."
Power-for-sex transactions? "What do you mean?" Jin Suting asked.
"Don't pretend," Jin Xiyan said sarcastically, "How dare you say you didn't know about this? You follow the Ninth Prince in and out of Zuixianlou every day, and even into the private rooms. If nothing happened between you two, no one would believe it!"
Jin Suting's mind was in a mess. She went to Zuixianlou to try the dishes, but she had promised the Ninth Prince not to tell him about this.
"I think you may have misunderstood. The Ninth Prince and I don't have that kind of relationship." Jin Suting didn't know why she had to explain. Although she had some thoughts about the Ninth Prince, it was only that much.
"What are you pretending to be doing here? You're going to be a princess soon, aren't you happy?" Jin Xiyan became more and more excited as she spoke. That was originally her position. "Do you think the Ninth Prince is really interested in you? Don't dream. He's only interested in your identity as the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion and the help from the General's Mansion! Daddy has also received a lot of benefits from him. This is a naked power-for-sex transaction! You've been reduced to a pawn, and you're still smug here?"
