Chapter 2440: Chapter 31: Tang Wenqian Achieves Fruition

Ms. Jiang was quickly led inside. When she saw Shu Yu also present, she paused for a moment and then smiled and curtsied, “Greetings to the county magistrate.”

Shu Yu waved her hand and then looked at Ms. Jiang’s walking posture with surprise.

“You…” Her gaze fell on Ms. Jiang’s belly. Shu Yu, having experienced this herself, could tell from posture whether someone was pregnant.

Ms. Jiang was walking very slowly, taking care to protect her belly. Even though it was still flat, it looked like she was pregnant, right?

If Shu Yu could see it, Xiao Ruojun, who was familiar with Ms. Jiang’s walking posture, would certainly notice it as well.

She stood up in surprise and asked, “Is there a baby?”

Ms. Jiang pressed her lips together, a gentle smile on her face, “Yes, just three months.”

Xiao Ruojun said, “Hurry, then don’t stand, sit, sit, sit.”

Ms. Jiang was pulled to sit down on a chair at the side and asked in a low voice, “What did the doctor say?”

“Everything is fine.”

As they spoke, Ms. Jiang glanced at Shu Yu, her expression a bit awkward.

Even Xiao Ruojun didn’t know her marriage with Tang Wenqian was fake, but Shu Yu did. Back then, she clearly promised that they were just a couple in name, yet now, so soon, she was… expecting.

Shu Yu laughed, “Congratulations, congratulations.”

“Th-thank you.”

Shu Yu found this quite amazing. If Madam Tang, far away in Dongan Province, knew about Ms. Jiang’s pregnancy, her jaw would probably drop. When they lived together, Ms. Jiang was determinedly not getting pregnant.

But as soon as they returned home, the child came along.

With Madam Tang’s temperament, she would probably overthink again.

However, Shu Yu thought, this might indeed have something to do with Madam Tang. Once she was gone, Tang Wenqian and Ms. Jiang, without others interfering, naturally developed feelings over time.

Looking at the smile on Ms. Jiang’s face, Tang Wenqian must treat her well.

Littile Mianmian, having finished her meal, heard the adults talking about topics she didn’t understand, so she quietly tugged on Huohuo’s hand and said to Doudou, “Brother, is this your home? Can I, can I explore your house?”

“Of course you can.”

“Brother Doudou, you’re so nice.”

Doudou’s little ears couldn’t help but turn a bit red. After saying something to Xiao Ruojun, he took his two new friends out of the flower hall.

The Xiang Family is the Count Mansion and located in the capital. Even though Mianmian has seen a lot, she was still awed by the scenery within the mansion.

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the short legs of the three children couldn’t manage to walk far before having to return.

Little Mianmian was full of regret. When she returned to the flower hall, she asked Shu Yu, “Mother, are we coming again tomorrow?”

“Do you like it here?”

“Yes.” She nodded emphatically.

However, Shu Yu said, “Tomorrow, we have to visit Grandpa Yao and the others. After meeting some of the elders, you can come and play with Brother Doudou again, okay?”

“Okay.” Mianmian turned to Doudou and said, “Then I will come back in a few days.”

Though Doudou was a bit disappointed, he agreed.

After Shu Yu and the others went out, Doudou asked Xiao Ruojun, “Mother, do we know Mianmian’s Grandpa Yao?”

“Yes, we do.”

“Then can we visit them tomorrow too?”

Xiao Ruojun looked at her son in shock. Was this really her son? Was he replaced?

She squatted down and asked curiously, “Do you… really like little sister Mianmian?”

Doudou pursed his small mouth, and under Xiao Ruojun’s expectant gaze, he turned around and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Xiao Ruojun, “…” Just keep pretending.
