Chapter 289 Happy Pulse
The doctor stroked his white beard.
With a look of joy on his face, he said, "Congratulations, madam, this is a happy pregnancy..."
Upon hearing the words "pregnancy," the person behind the bamboo curtain froze for a moment.
Sisi quickly realized what was happening.
"Thank you for your hard work, doctor. This way, please!"
After the doctor was led away by Sitao, Wu Weiwei finally came to her senses.
Ha ha……
A bitter smile appeared on her lips.
What kind of karma did she create to get pregnant with Lu Hanting's child?
Does this mean I'll be entangled with him forever?
No, she won't allow that to happen.
Qingzhu County.
Wanqiu arrived at Chengde Manor.
Two days ago, her master asked her to visit Granny Mei, but she hadn't come yet due to some matters.
Manager Qing is going to sea today, and based on the girl's reaction just now, Wanqiu has confirmed that there is a high probability that her master is pregnant.
Therefore, Wanqiu rushed here without stopping, determined to find out whether Granny Mei had betrayed her master.
"Miss Wanqiu, what brings you here?"
The old women on the manor naturally recognized Wanqiu. Although she was an old servant in Houzhong, she had also received favors from Wu Weiwei.
"Old Lady Qing, I heard that Granny Mei is here to work, and the young lady asked me to come and see her!"
Wanqiu said politely.
“Of course, Granny Mei has only been here for two days, and I noticed she doesn’t seem to be adjusting very well. It’s good that you’ve come to check on her…”
As she spoke, Granny Qing led her to Granny Mei's residence.
"She's inside, go ahead!"
Granny Qing gave Wanqiu a meaningful look.
Although Wanqiu did not understand, she got the gist of it.
She pulled a small bag of loose silver from her pocket. "Thank you, Granny Qing. Please accept this small token of my appreciation!"
"Oh dear, Miss Wanqiu, why are you still pulling this trick on me!"
"It's only right, you guys have it tough too..."
After some initial hesitation, Granny Qing finally accepted the offer.
The monthly allowance in this village is nothing like that of the master's mansion; it's all fixed and there are no bonuses.
If you do a good job, your employer will praise you a few words. Unless you perform exceptionally well, they will not promote you.
After seeing Granny Qing leave, Wanqiu knocked on the door twice.
Then a deep, old voice came from inside: "Come in."
Granny Mei heard the commotion in the hallway outside and knew that it was Wanqiu who had come to find her.
Wanqiu pushed open the door and saw Granny Mei lying half-reclined on the bed. She looked sickly and much more haggard than before they left.
"Granny Mei, what's wrong with you?"
"Wanqiu, you're here! Could you please get me a glass of water?"
Hearing Granny Mei's weak voice, Wanqiu felt angry with her, but after working together for so long, she was not without feelings for her.
Wanqiu poured a cup of water from the kettle and handed it to her.
"Drink!"
After drinking a glass of warm water, Granny Mei finally felt a little better.
Wanqiu helped her sit up against the headboard.
"Granny Mei, I believe you already know why I've come today..."
Wanqiu didn't want to test Mei Mama's limits, so she simply got straight to the point.
Upon hearing Wanqiu's words, Mei Mama's eyes flickered.
"Wanqiu, you..."
Granny Mei adjusted her posture, feeling somewhat uncertain.
Could it be?
"Granny Mei, let's not beat around the bush. Did you tamper with the contraceptive soup our master drank?"
Wanqiu's question made Granny Mei's face turn pale instantly, but she quickly showed joy again.
"Is the mistress pregnant?"
Hearing Granny Mei's happy words, Wanqiu was filled with anger.
"Granny Mei, did you really do this? Did you deliberately try to get our young lady pregnant?"
"Wanqiu, tell me, is the mistress pregnant with the prince's child?"
Granny Mei excitedly grabbed Wanqiu's hand.
"So what if it is? Are you happy now?"
Wanqiu shook off Granny Mei's hand and stood up angrily.
"Granny Mei, what are you up to? Our young lady has always treated you well, regarding you with the respect due to her wet nurse, yet you? You're plotting to harm her!"
"This……"
Seeing Wanqiu so angry, Granny Mei was somewhat stunned.
“The mistress is pregnant with the prince’s child. Isn’t that a wonderful thing?”
If we servants help us devise a plan, we can drive away the young lady from the manor. Who knows, the master might be able to rise to the position of the crown prince's wife through her son. I'm doing this entirely for her sake..."
"Thinking about our young lady? Granny Mei, are you blind? Can't you see how the young master treats our young lady?"
For He Yuyan's sake, the young master repeatedly seized the property that his master had worked so hard to build. Not only that, he also twisted the girl's hand and not only refused to call a doctor for her, but also forbade Lingfu and me from doing so.
The prince has never cared about the girl.
He even wrote a letter of release from the concubine agreement, yet he was still so heartless as to beat the girl thirty times before leaving. If our girl hadn't endured it in the end, you would probably be kneeling at her grave this time next year...
Granny Mei, is this the goodness of the young master you spoke of?
As an outsider, you call the Crown Prince's behavior "favor"? Hmm?"
"This……"
Granny Mei naturally knew everything Wanqiu had said, scene by scene.
But her former master, the prince's mother, had gone through the same thing. If her master could tolerate it, why couldn't Wu Weiwei?
Only through patience can one achieve great things.
This is what her master taught her all along.
Seeing that Granny Mei still looked completely at ease, Wanqiu couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, now I understand. You were the one who tampered with the contraceptive soup."
You think you're doing this for our master's good? Ha! I'm afraid you don't know that our master doesn't want this baby..."
"Impossible. Even if my aunt hates our young master, she would never abort the baby. You're lying to me, aren't you?"
Granny Mei refused to believe it.
Although the master is not a particularly kind person, he would never be so heartless as to abort the crown prince's child.
This is the Crown Prince's child, her hope.
Seeing Granny Mei's almost insane state, Wanqiu became suspicious.
Wanqiu said this entirely to anger Granny Mei, since how could she know whether her young lady was really pregnant?
However, why is Granny Mei so insistent on having her master and the prince together?
Is there some ulterior motive behind this?
However, that's not something she should be concerned about right now.
She now knows the truth from Granny Mei, and thus, she can give the young lady an explanation.
"Granny Mei, believe it or not, you must understand that you, this traitorous servant, have been removed from our young lady's heart!"
Mei Lane.
Sitao returned to her room after seeing the doctor off.
"Young lady, what should we do now? Are you planning to keep this child?"
The young lady is carrying the prince's child. If she gives birth, she might very well rise to the position of the prince's wife through her son.
However, this is an unknown gamble.
It's hard to say whether the crown prince will allow his master to ascend to the throne!
