Chapter 131 Don’t Get Me Wrong, I’m Here to Add Insult to Injury

Doctor Zhang was a little confused. He really didn't expect Shen Qing to say such a thing.

After a moment, Doctor Zhang came back to his senses and spoke truthfully: "Back to Madam, Aunt Lin is indeed pregnant. She will be about one month old. However, because she was frightened a few days ago, the fetus is not stable."

Shen Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, "When I was bitten by a poisonous snake a few days ago, I was not diagnosed yet, and now I am diagnosed with pregnancy just five days later?"

Dr. Zhang began to sweat coldly on his forehead, "Young Madam, pregnancy is a process for a woman. It can only be diagnosed when the pregnancy is nearly one month old, so the current result appears."

Shen Qing naturally knew that Doctor Zhang was right, but this was too much of a coincidence.

One coincidence can be justified, but if there are too many coincidences, it will inevitably be suspected of being intentional.

What's more, Doctor Zhang has never been innocent.

Although Shen Qing didn't say anything, it didn't mean that Shen Qing didn't know that Doctor Zhang had secretly done a lot for Lin's aunt and nephew over the years.

The oppression in Shen Qing's eyes was even worse, "Doctor Zhang, after staying in the mansion for so many years, you should know that there is no room for sand in my eyes."

Doctor Zhang only felt that he had been wronged. He had indeed told a lot of lies in the past, but this time Lin Xuefu was pregnant for the truth!

So Doctor Zhang quickly kowtowed to Shen Qing, with a sincere look on his face, "Young Madam, I understand that I really did not lie. Aunt Lin is indeed pregnant. If I lied, I am willing to let Young Madam handle it." ”

Seeing that Doctor Zhang's words were sincere and not fake, Shen Qing let him go. Before going out, Haitang warned in a low voice: "Doctor Zhang, what the young lady said to you today, if someone asks what to say, you should not use it. Shall I teach you again?"

Doctor Zhang nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Miss Haitang. If anyone asks, I will tell you that the young lady has some heat syndrome, and that's why you summoned me."

The weather is getting hotter, and summer fever is an all-purpose excuse.

Haitang nodded, indicating that he could leave.

Doctor Zhang hurriedly took two steps, only to feel that life in the Yanglinghou Mansion was getting more and more difficult. He was either helping Lin's aunt and nephew to deceive, or helping Shen Qing to cover up. It was almost frightening every day.

Doctor Zhang even had some doubts. If one day the two parties really came to the point of life and death, he would be the first to bear the brunt.

After all, he knew too much inside information.

Thinking of this, Doctor Zhang's body trembled subconsciously. How about... while there is still a way out, just resign and return home?

On the other side, watching Doctor Zhang leave, Haitang returned to the house. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shen Qing stroking Tuanzi's hair and thinking, obviously still wondering about Lin Xuefu.

"Miss, the servant on Doctor Zhang's side has already warned you, and the servant on Aunt Lin's side has also sent someone to keep an eye on him."

Shen Qing nodded. Since taking Haitang as his confidant, Shen Qing has become more and more relaxed.

Lingyi is taking care of business and looking for clues outside, while Chanyi and Fuyi are taking care of each other personally and investigating drugs. Now Haitang is added to the team, and the entire Yanglinghou Mansion is once again under supervision.

"How's it going over there at Hibiscus?"

"Sister Fuyi is taking care of her personally. She said she will wake up in the next two days."

Hearing what Haitang said, Shen Qing immediately felt relieved and took a nap with his eyes closed.

…

Five days flew by.

On May 26th, an auspicious day, Cheng Xian, the Minister of Rites, personally brought his son Cheng Juan to offer the offer.

The boys who were responsible for carrying the betrothal gifts formed a long dragon, and they had all kinds of silks, jade, gold, silver and jewelry. It can be said that they gave the Yangling Marquis Mansion enough respect.

Marquis Yangling's eyes lit up, and he didn't show anything on his face, but the look he looked at the Cheng family and his son was much gentler.

Judging from the importance the Cheng family attaches to Mu Lingxi, this marriage will most likely be more useful than Mu Lingyue's.

Marquis Yangling was sitting at the top, listening to the flattering words of the Cheng family father and son, and suddenly felt that most of the anger he had received from Shen Qing these days had dissipated.

This marriage was originally agreed upon by both parties. After accepting the betrothal gift, Yangling Marquis and Cheng Xian discussed the wedding date, and finally set the date on the eighth day of October, which happened to be one month after Mu Lingxi and her hairpin queen.

After the matter was finalized, the Cheng family father and son stood up and left.

Although there are still almost four months until the wedding date, the marriage process for our children is complicated, and the time is actually not very abundant.

Seeing Cheng Juan's hesitant look, Shen Qing took the initiative to speak, "Mr. Cheng doesn't come to Yanglinghou Mansion very often, and he and Lingxi haven't seen each other for some time. Why don't you stay and let Lingxi show you around?" ?”

Cheng Juan was obviously moved, but he still looked at his father.

Cheng Xian smiled and looked at Shen Qing, "The young lady is still thoughtful. This boy is a bit shy, but the young lady has given him a good step."

Hearing this, the tips of Cheng Juan's ears turned slightly red.

After bidding farewell to Marquis Yangling and Shen Qing, Cheng Xian left with a group of servants. Shen Qing whispered a few words to Mu Lingxi and asked her to take Cheng Juan out of the house.

Yanglinghou Mansion is a mess, not a good place for romance.

Most of the people in the main hall had left, and in the end only Marquis Yangling and Shen Qing were left.

Under the scorching gaze of Marquis Yangling, Shen Qing had people lift up the betrothal gifts lying all over the place, send them directly to the warehouse, escort them personally, and add a new lock on the door of the warehouse.

Marquis Yangling, who had followed quietly and witnessed everything, immediately clenched his fists angrily: She was doing this one after another, who was she guarding against!

After Shen Qing left the warehouse, she went directly to Qifutang, where Mrs. Yanglinghou lived.

She was already preparing to leave Yanglinghou Mansion, so she naturally wanted to hold on to the contracts of sale of the girls in Tinglan Courtyard.

When Shen Qing came over, Mu Ziqian and Lin Xuefu were both there, and it must be said that it was a bit lively.

Seeing Shen Qing, Mu Ziqian's gentle expression suddenly turned cold, "What are you doing here? My mother has been sick for so many days, and you're just here to pretend to be a good person. Don't you think it's too late?"

Shen Qing clicked his tongue softly and said truthfully: "Don't get me wrong, I'm here to add insult to injury."

Mu Ziqian, who was suddenly blocked and unable to speak a word, said: "???"

No, what did she say?

Even Lin Xuefu couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Now Shen Qing doesn't even have to pretend in front of Mu Ziqian? What is she trying to do? Play hard to get?

The atmosphere was deadlocked for a moment, then Mu Ziqian said to chase them away, "Get out, you are not welcome here."

Seeing that Mu Ziqian was increasingly confused about how much he weighed, Shen Qing glanced at his legs and asked, "Does the Third Young Master's leg hurt?"

Sure enough, with one word, Mu Ziqian was instantly silenced.

"I came here today to get the girl's deed of sale. I wonder if I should look for it myself, or should the Third Young Master help me look for it?"

Mu Ziqian immediately became furious, "What do you want these things for!"

Shen Qing glanced at him incomprehensibly, and Mu Ziqian's voice suddenly dropped by more than half, but he still said stubbornly: "The power of running the family is in your hands, what else do you want with these false things!"

Shen Qing found an empty chair and sat down, looking arrogant, "I just want it, why do you ask so many questions?"

Mu Ziqian: "..."

What is she crazy about?
