Chapter 1251: Marriage Recovered Through Fraud (17)
Chen Yi gritted his teeth, endured Shi Chu's words for Duzhou's sake, glared at her fiercely, and left with the bride.
Shi Chu stared at the bride's waist and abdomen, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"What are you looking at?" Duzhou asked Shi Chu who was smiling cunningly.
"Look at the bride. Your third cousin is going to be a father soon, right? It's really a double happiness." Shi Chu looked very happy for the groom, but Duzhou felt something was wrong when he saw her expression, but he couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Shi Chu would not tell him either, because she saw that the bride's belly was slightly bulging, just like a pregnant woman who was three or four months pregnant.
The walking posture of a pregnant woman is different from that of a non-pregnant woman, and experienced midwives and doctors can see it.
Chen Yi's bride has probably been pregnant for quite some time. Of course, it is possible that they couldn't resist eating the forbidden fruit before marriage and had to get married with the baby.
However, according to Shi Chu's observation, the bride did not seem to truly like Chen Yi, so it was unclear whether the baby in her belly was Chen Yi's.
This is none of Shi Chu's business, so Shi Chu will not interfere. Anyway, whether it is Chen Yi's or not, it is not her turn to worry about it.
Shi Chu watched the newlyweds leave. Chen Yi was really satisfied with his new wife and took her to every table to show off. However, when passing by a table, the bride suddenly covered her mouth and retched. Chen Yi immediately asked her worriedly if she was too tired, and then he didn't want to let her walk around, so he helped her go back to rest.
Seeing this, everyone teased Chen Yi for loving his wife...
Duzhou saw the bride retching, and combined with what Shichu had just said, an incredible idea suddenly popped up in his mind. He grabbed Shichu's arm and asked her in a low voice: "Do you mean that the bride is pregnant?"
Shi Chu smiled at him: "I didn't say that."
"But you didn't deny it." Duzhou stared at Shi Chu's expression.
Shi Chu shrugged: "Won't you know in a few months whether the bride will have a 'premature birth'?"
Her almost explicit words startled Duzhou, and a conflicted look appeared on his face.
"What are you struggling with?" Shi Chu asked him.
Duzhou shook his head and said, "Nothing."
Shi Chu stopped asking immediately, since she wasn't the one who was troubled anyway.
Until the banquet was over, Duzhou did not go to find Chen Yi alone. It seemed that he intended to bury his doubts in his heart.
Du Xiaoling and Du Xiaoshi played with the children at the wedding for the whole day. By the time they were about to go home, they were so tired that they fell asleep. Shi Chu and Du Zhou had to each carry one child back.
The next day, Du Zhou went to work, and Shi Chu prepared a schoolbag and stationery for Du Xiaoshi because he was about to go to elementary school.
"Auntie, I want a blue schoolbag!" Du Xiaoshi looked at the monotonous types of schoolbags in the supply and marketing cooperative, pointed at a blue schoolbag and said excitedly.
"Okay, but you have to take good care of it and don't break it too soon, okay?" Shi Chu bought it for him very generously.
"I know, I know! I will definitely not break it." Du Xiaoshi agreed hurriedly, and when he got the schoolbag, he couldn't let it go and looked at it.
Du Xiaoling was very envious: "Auntie, when can I get one? I want a schoolbag too..."
"You can buy it when you go to elementary school." Shi Chu told her.
"Then when can I go to elementary school?" Du Xiaoling asked impatiently.
"It's still early. There are still more than two years left." Shi Chu replied.
"Can't I go to school with my brother?" Du Xiaoling was very disappointed.
"No, the school won't accept a child as young as you." Shi Chu rudely broke her fantasy, "You want to go to school now, but when you really go to school, you will yell that you don't want to go. You should cherish the good time now when you don't have to study."
Du Xiaoshi and Du Xiaoling both listened in confusion, because they had never experienced the beatings during full classes in school, so they naturally did not know the happiness of not having to study.
Du Xiaoling was a very well-behaved child. When she heard Shi Chu say this, she was only disappointed for a moment, and soon forgot about the schoolbag.
Seeing how well behaved she was, Shi Chu specially picked out a beautiful butterfly hairpin for her.
"Auntie, are you really going to buy this for me?" Du Xiaoling's eyes lit up when she saw the hairpin. After Shi Chu nodded in agreement, she immediately became overjoyed, hugged Shi Chu's neck, and kissed her on the face madly.
"Thank you, Auntie! I like this hairpin very much!" Du Xiaoling was so happy that she almost went to heaven. She smiled so hard that her mouth couldn't close. She looked at it again and again with love, and then asked Shi Chu to help her put it on her hair.
"Auntie, brother, does it look good?" she asked Shi Chu and Du Xiaoshi excitedly.
They both said it looked nice, so Du Xiaoling became even more excited. She insisted on going down on the ground by herself, tilting her head back excitedly, wishing that everyone on the street could see the butterfly hairpin on her head.
She even went to crowded places and turned around happily in front of others. If someone told her that she looked pretty, she would jump for joy.
Shi Chu found it funny. Seeing her running farther and farther away, he wanted to pull Du Xiaoshi over, but her outstretched hand was empty: "Xiaoshi?"
She turned around, but didn't see Du Xiaoshi at all. Her heart sank suddenly and she had a bad feeling. After turning around and still couldn't find Du Xiaoshi anywhere, she immediately realized what had happened.
She took a deep breath to calm herself down, then ran to pick up Du Xiaoling and began to shout loudly: "Du Xiaoshi! Du Xiaoshi!"
Passersby on the street saw her shouting anxiously in the street and looking for someone everywhere, so they asked her what happened.
"My child is missing. I don't know if he was abducted by human traffickers. Please help me find him! He was wearing a green shirt and black pants today. He is a six-year-old boy and very handsome..." Shi Chu quickly told the people around him about Du Xiaoshi's characteristics and asked them to help find him. He also found a reliable uncle and asked him to go to the police station to report the incident.
Everyone was very enthusiastic at that time, and a child getting lost was a big deal, and no one would stand idly by, so many people helped to look for the child.
Shi Chu's heart was beating very fast, and the plot of the original world quickly emerged in his mind. The original owner deliberately took Du Xiaoshi to the station and wanted him to get lost. Could it be that even though Du Xiaoshi had a new soul in this life, he still couldn't avoid the fate of being kidnapped?
No! Now that she is here, Du Xiaoshi's fate cannot be repeated! Shi Chu's eyes were shockingly dark, and her whole body was cold. She closed her eyes and began to recall the map of the entire town in her mind.
"Auntie, is my brother missing?" Du Xiaoling seemed to realize what had happened, and with tears in her eyes, she asked Shi Chu in panic.
