Chapter 198 Strange

"We always thought that she was alone, but from Mrs. Gu's words, I always felt that there was something wrong with the abbot. To be precise, it was his words that led to Shunniang entering the mansion."

"If there is no relationship between the two, I always think it is too coincidental."

"I'll check it out." Ji Chenyuan's eyes lit up, he impatiently told Ji Qingyue for a while, and then left.

When Ji Chenyuan left, Ji Qingyue came out of the guest room, and she saw the maid subconsciously looking over at a glance. She didn't know her, but she knew it was eyeliner.

She took a look, remembered the other person's appearance, and went back to the backyard in silence.

When Ji Qingyue came back to Zhou Zhiyuan's courtyard, it didn't take long. Ji Chenyuan's news hadn't come back yet, but someone from Meiyuan came back to come and see Zhou Zhiyuan.

"Cousin, take this first." Ji Qingyue took out the pills she had prepared a long time ago from the space, and then gave one to Madam Du, who had already swallowed one herself.

Madam Du believed in Ji Qingyue's medical skills extremely. With her universal antidote, she was not worried at all that the woman would play dirty tricks later.

She walked out quickly, waited at the door, cleaned up the people in the yard, and only stayed after making sure that it belonged to her, while the others made excuses to spend.

She doesn't want to have more side issues later.

Supported by Xiaocui, Shunniang passed through the moon arch and entered the courtyard, her eyes fell on the large courtyard, and everything around her was good.

Compared with her small plum courtyard, the elegance of the main courtyard was enviable and made her greedy.

Why can't she live in such a nice yard?
No, good yards are given to capable people. Shunniang smiled, leaning on her waist, with a soft smile on her face, not noticing the coldness in her eyes like a poisonous snake at all.

Shunniang went into the outer room, Zhou Zhiyuan's bedroom was in the inner room, and she also met guests in the inner room.

Xiaocui helped her take off her cloak and entered the inner room. Zhou Zhiyuan sat there quietly, with no joy or anger on her face, even though she knew she was coming in a bad way.

"Take a seat for Aunt Shun."

Zhou Zhiyuan's attitude was very good. There were many maids in the room, and they all stepped forward to help her.

Seeing Zhou Zhiyuan's enthusiasm, Shunniang's eyes were full of doubts, but she felt uneasy, and subconsciously touched her stomach.

Xiaocui could see clearly from the side, and hurried forward to prevent those maidservants from approaching.

With a smirk on her face, Shunniang explained to Zhou Zhiyuan: "Ma'am, I'm sorry, I'm familiar with Xiaocui serving me. I'm from a small family, and I'm not used to having too many maids. Unlike Madam, I'm a real lady of the big family." , there are many people who need it, for me, I just like to be served by one person by my side."

Zhou Zhiyuan knew well that she was afraid that she would harm her child, so she looked at her with some sarcasm. Since the other party wanted to think so much, she wanted to make her feel uncomfortable.

Zhou Zhiyuan took a sip from the teacup next to her, opened her lips slightly, and ordered, "That's not acceptable. Now that you are pregnant, it's still the master's. To protect your child is to protect the blood of the Gu family. As the wife of Zhengtang, Protecting the blood of the master is what I should do."

"Come on, hurry up and put a cushion on Aunt Shun, I want the softest and most precious one."

"By the way, serve the bird's nest to Aunt Shun, eat, and return the ordinary tea."

Zhou Zhiyuan's attitude was so good that the smile on Shunniang's face was even more forced, and Xiaocui stood behind her, unable to stop those maids from approaching.

Shunniang was always worried about what Zhou Zhiyuan would do. She knew that she had poisoned her and murdered her heirs, so it was impossible not to hate her, and the only precious thing she had was the child in her stomach.

If she were Zhou Zhiyuan, she would definitely attack this child.

When the bird's nest was brought up, she smiled even more forcedly, put her hand on her belly and said, "I'm not hungry, so I don't need to eat."

Zhou Zhiyuan heard the words: "I saw you walking for such a long time and you were pregnant with a child. I thought you were hungry. Since you are not hungry, why don't you hurry up and get your things?"

A maid came forward tremblingly, hurriedly carrying the bird's nest and waiting to leave.

"I don't know why Aunt Shun came to see me?" Zhou Zhiyuan said indifferently, her gaze kept on her, without any concealment.

What was done before was just for her to fulfill her duties as much as possible, and to avoid Gu Yuxuan blaming her for not valuing Shun Niang enough in the future.

Although this reason made her feel a little sad, it was the fact. If it wasn't for this, how could she have taken such a small woman like Shunniang with no natal background into her eyes.

Their Zhou family will not be lost, and even her elder brother is still an official in the capital. Although he is only from the sixth rank, who knows what achievements he will have in the future?
What's more, although the Zhou family is far away from Shangjing, it is still a genuine noble family, and compared with the Gu family, it is also a lot higher.

This is why the old lady's attitude changed rapidly after she made it clear that she could conceive. No matter how you say it, marrying her is a good thing for Gu Yuxuan and the entire Gu family.

Raising the lintel of the Gu family, this is something that Shunniang, a small foreign girl, can't match.

Looking for her is just to leave Gu Yuxuan's blood, that's all.

"Ma'am, I heard that you have recovered. I came to congratulate you." Aunt Shun made no secret of her intentions.

Anyway, in her eyes, Zhou Zhiyuan was already dead, no matter what she said at the moment, it didn't matter.

Zhou Zhiyuan was slightly surprised: "What Auntie Shun is talking about, I don't know."

Aunt Shun heard the words and smiled: "Ma'am, you don't have to worry, we are a family, and I also hope that Madam can give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible to spread the branches and leaves for the master. With Madam here in the future, I won't worry about being so tired." .”

Even if she came here to harm someone, she still did not forget to provoke her.

Zhou Zhiyuan's cheeks were flushed with anger, Madam Du couldn't stand it anymore, and snorted coldly: "This kind of thing is naturally our wife's own business, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with my aunt."

"I think my aunt still cares more about herself. Our wife has the favor of the master and the support of my mother's family. The old lady is also sensible. These things just go with the flow."

"Really?" Shun Niang smiled lightly, but did not answer.

"Xiao Cui, bring me the gift I gave to Madam."

Following Aunt Shun's order, Xiaocui hurried out and brought in a small pot of plum blossoms.

"Ma'am, this is my wish. I wish you an early birth to your precious son."

"Since it's Aunt Shun's kindness, then I'll do it." Zhou Zhiyuan waved her hand, and quickly asked someone to come up and take down the plum blossoms.

"Madam, then I will take my leave first, so as not to delay Madam's rest."

After Aunt Shun finished speaking, she actually got up and was about to leave.

Zhou Zhiyuan felt a little strange, this Aunt Shun just came to see her and left?Don't you want to start today?

Thinking of this possibility, she frowned slightly. If this was the case, wouldn't she always be on guard against Aunt Shun's attack?
