Chapter 166 The Road Paved by My Father
"A risky move can save one from a desperate situation. Zhu Hong used this move well."
After Shen Ruoyan returned, he was amazed at Zhuhong's courage.
Self-proof is the most difficult thing in this world. However, once it is linked to life and death, it is easy to be believed.
Because no one would joke about his own life.
But Zhuhong, she did it!
"Madam, Aunt Hong's move was too dangerous! When I grabbed her, I felt like I heard the sound of the hairpin cutting her flesh..." Qiu Ye is still in shock. She was the one who grabbed the hairpin, so she was the only one who knew how sharp the hairpin was!
Why didn't she just grab a knife?
Shen Ruoyan smiled slowly, "This is what makes her extraordinary."
People's inherent thinking is difficult to break.
If Zhuhong just used an ordinary hairpin to pretend, she would be exposed soon.
To put it bluntly, she was able to shock Lu Jing and dispel all his doubts simply by risking her life!
Only by truly risking her life could she win Lu Jing's unconditional trust - Zhu Hong really wanted to kill herself!
Many women only dare to think about it, but when it comes to actually doing it, they are afraid to take the plunge.
This is also the reason why they are always sad about the passing of time but can never change the status quo.
But Zhuhong was the complete opposite. While she was thinking about it, she had already started to do it.
When others didn't dare to think about it, she had already done what no one dared to do!
To be honest, if Shen Ruoyan had met such a concubine in the palace before, he would have helped her win her over and brought her into his camp.
It is easy to find teammates who are like pigs, but it is hard to find a helper who is like god.
"By the way, Qiuye, is your hand okay?" Shen Ruoyan asked with concern.
She had arranged Qiu Ye in advance, but at that time she just thought that Zhu Hong would take some extreme actions, but she didn't expect that she would not only be cruel, but also even more cruel to herself.
Qiu Ye's hands are still wrapped tightly, and they are told that he cannot get wet until the wound is fully healed.
"Much better, it's just a superficial wound. It looks scary, but it's actually nothing serious." Qiu Ye didn't take it to heart, but thought of Zhu Hong, and said with lingering fear: "I heard that Aunt Hong's belly will have a scar in the future, how pitiful."
Zhu Hong hit too hard, and although the injury was stopped, it will leave a scar forever.
However, Shen Ruoyan did not think this was a pitiful thing, but rather, it was her luck.
"Maybe Zhuhong is really looking forward to it." Shen Ruoyan smiled slightly and kept it a secret.
Qiu Ye scratched her head in confusion. Her injury was on her hand, not her head, right?
Why do I feel like I don’t understand?
But Chunxi next to her looked at her with a half-smile, which made Qiuye even more confused - so, she was the only one who didn't understand?
And at this moment, there was one more person who shared the same pain as her.
"Sister, you're not worried about the scar on your belly? When the Marquis comes to your place in the future and sees this scar, aren't you worried that he'll be disappointed?" Liu Lu was very anxious. She collected a large basket of scar removal medicine and brought it all to Zhu Hong.
However, before she could explain the effects of these medicines, Zhu Hong asked her to take them all away, not even a single one!
"Sister, are you really thinking of dying and having no desires anymore?" Liu Lu was frightened and didn't care about the medicine anymore. She immediately touched Zhu Hong's forehead to see if she had a fever.
Otherwise, why does it feel like everyone is going crazy?
"What nonsense are you talking about." Zhu Hong smiled softly, "I finally managed to save my life. I'm very careful!"
Liu Lu was even more confused, "Then why are you..."
Zhuhong shook her head and gently placed her hand on her belly, silently comforting her.
This time, the little guy in my belly was really scared.
But fortunately, it was solved once and for all, and from then on, her identity was finally clear.
"Not only can I not make this scar disappear, but I will make it stay on my belly forever. This way, whenever the Marquis sees this scar, he will remember what happened today, and he will never doubt the child's origin again."
Unless, there is a real blood test on the spot to prove that the child is not his.
But even so, she still had a way to confuse right and wrong.
By then, Lu Jing would only feel guilt and heartache towards them and their son.
However, Zhu Hong would not let such a thing happen unless it was absolutely necessary. Otherwise, she would not have to spend so much effort and almost risk her life to act out such a scene.
Didn’t Fang Rou want Lu Jing to doubt the child’s background?
But unfortunately, from today onwards, in Lu Jing's heart, this child is definitely his own flesh and blood - even if he dotes on Fang Rou, what if he takes the child into account?
After all, who has the biggest bargaining chip, her or Fang Rou?
With Lu Jing's return, the undercurrents in the backyard of the Marquis' Mansion began to surge again.
Lu Jing was immersed in the joy of his child, but he also heard about Lu Yan's popularity outside.
However, compared to Madam Lu's disgust, his attitude was somewhat different.
"Madam, Hong'er is pregnant now. No matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, it will be the blood of our mansion. Now that Yan'er is no longer afraid of going out, he can take his brothers and sisters out more often in the future. What do you think, Madam?"
Perhaps because he was afraid that Shen Ruoyan would be unhappy, Lu Jing explained considerately: "The main purpose is to let Yan'er feel what it's like to be a brother, so that he can have some sense of accomplishment."
Shen Ruoyan discovered that Lu Jing didn't make much progress in other areas during this trip, but his way of speaking had changed a lot.
Look, I can now tell lies with my eyes open. That is indeed progress.
No wonder he didn’t mention Lu Yan to me for so long, it turns out he was waiting here!
As for brothers and sisters, in Shen Ruoyan's opinion, Lu Jing has probably already concluded in his heart that Zhuhong is definitely pregnant with a boy!
This isn't about asking Lu Yan to take care of his younger siblings, this is about letting Zhu Hong's child step on Lu Yan's shoulders and move up!
"What are you talking about, Lord? Yan'er is the eldest son, so he will naturally be a good role model for the younger brothers. Although he can't speak, he can write and draw. Maybe he can even guide his younger brothers and sisters in their studies in the future, don't you think?"
The smile on Lu Jing's face was a little awkward. He gave Shen Ruoyan a ladder, so how come Shen Ruoyan actually climbed up?
He wanted Lu Yan to take his younger brother to places like the Imperial College to meet more people.
Now that he has Qin Shaobei and Pei Rushi protecting him, won’t he be able to bring his younger brother with him in the future?
After my brother's reputation has spread, I can then naturally request to replace the crown prince, and no one will criticize me!
If it were the other way around, what would Lu Yan be doing? !
