Mrs. Qiao was stunned for a moment. After she came to her senses, she hurriedly asked: "Is it...is it your mother and..."
Zuo Anning nodded slightly, her cheeks flushed.
After all, she is a daughter who has not left the government, so she is still a little shy to say such things.
"Mom hasn't told dad yet, but I saw her secretly vomiting several times. Aunt Zhu next to me also said, she looks like it!"
"If dad finds out, I don't know how to be happy, and grandpa, although grandpa won't say it, I am the only legitimate daughter in the huge Duke of Yan's house, so grandpa must also have regrets in his heart."
Qiao Jiaojiao felt like her head was buzzing.
[Oh my god, this question is beyond the scope! 】
[It turns out I didn’t say that my aunt was pregnant again! And whose child this child belongs to is really open to question...】
Mrs. Qiao knew that Mrs. Zuo might have had a private meeting with Li Xusheng last time the number one scholar was paraded. Now her hands were hidden under her sleeves and she was trembling a little.
She no longer wanted to care about her brother, but she couldn't imagine how much harm this incident would bring to her father.
If my sister-in-law and brother were able to conceive, they would have been pregnant long ago.
Before she broke up with her sister-in-law, her sister-in-law would occasionally say that it would be great if she could have another son.
How come it's such a coincidence that there has been no movement for so many years, and when I met Li Xusheng, this happened?
Mrs. Qiao was breathing rapidly, but she couldn't show it in front of Zuo Aning, so she could only pretend to drink tea to cover her face.
After putting down the tea cup, Mrs. Qiao finally regained her composure.
She reluctantly raised the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "This is really a happy event, but your mother hasn't mentioned it yet, so An Ning, you should pretend to be confused for now."
Zuo Anning nodded happily.
"An Ning also means the same thing. It's best to wait for mother to tell father herself."
"To be honest with my aunt, the relationship between my parents is not good these days. Because of my anger, my mother went to stay at her parents' house several times, and I was not allowed to follow her. I looked really worried."
"It's fine now. If dad knows that mom is pregnant, he will definitely feel relieved."
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she leaned back on the soft pillow and whispered in her heart:
【It’s really over! 】
[I go back to my parents’ house frequently and my cousin is not allowed to follow me. I’m afraid I won’t go out to meet Li Xusheng! 】
[It’s over, I’m afraid this cuckold is gone! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao sighed deeply, thought about it carefully, and called out the Gongde Mall.
[Wait a minute, let me see if there is a paternity test charm. 】
Qiao Jiao's little fingers were stroking, and she really found it!
[The paternity identification talisman is a must-have for palace and house fights. Drop the blood of two people on the talisman. If the two are related, the talisman will burn spontaneously. If they are not related, the talisman will turn black. 】
[Required merit points——200? ? ? This paternity test talisman is actually more expensive than the restoration talisman! ? 】
[And it requires blood from both parties. The baby is still in the aunt's belly, so this won't be used. 】
Qiao Jiaojiao put away the Gongde Mall in frustration.
[It seems that only the aunt herself knows who this child belongs to. 】
Zuo Anning sat for a while longer, and when she saw that the time was almost up, she was about to leave.
Mrs. Qiao left her to have dinner, Zuo Anning shook her head, "Thank you aunt for your kindness, but I don't know when my mother will confess to my father. I'm worried about missing it, so I'd better go home."
After hearing this, Mrs. Qiao stopped holding on and gently held Zuo An Ning's hand.
"An Ning, please come here often in the future. My aunt is very happy with you and wants to see you more."
Zuo Anning's face turned slightly red when he heard this, and he nodded obediently.
"Okay, An Ning listens to aunt."
Mrs. Qiao called Qiao Diyi again and asked him to be more careful and send Zuo Anning back in person.
When she saw Zuo Anning's figure completely disappearing into the courtyard, Mrs. Qiao tightly grasped the cup in front of her, her hands trembling slightly.
This...how can this be good...
Qiao Jiaojiao stayed up all afternoon. After having dinner and playing for a while, she was so sleepy that she pecked rice on the soft couch.
Mrs. Qiao had something hidden in her mind. After putting Qiao Jiaojiao to sleep, she handed her over to Aunt Liu and took Qiao Zhongguo to the inner room.
"Husband, it's not good."
Mrs. Qiao's worried look startled Qiao Zhongguo.
"What's wrong ma'am?"
Mrs. Qiao felt very uncomfortable. She took Qiao Zhongguo's hand and said, "An Ning came to the house today. She said that her sister-in-law seemed to be pregnant. This was supposed to be a great joy, but... it just happened. .....”
Qiao Zhongguo's expression suddenly froze, he guessed it.
Mrs. Qiao's eyes were red, "An Ning said that my sister-in-law often goes back to her parents' house recently, and no one is allowed to follow her. I'm afraid she went out to have a private meeting with Li Xusheng!"
"Husband, I really can't bear it. My father is getting old. I really can't bear him being sad like this. There is An Ning. This child An Ning is so innocent."
"My brother is a ruthless man. If he knew the truth, he would go crazy and do something."
At this point, Mrs. Qiao's voice trembled.
Qiao Zhongguo was heartbroken and quickly took Mrs. Qiao into his arms. He pondered for a moment and said warmly:
"Madam, don't be afraid, just listen to my husband."
"If my sister-in-law is really pregnant, I'm afraid only she knows who the child is."
"Now that we have no evidence that my sister-in-law is having an affair with Li Xusheng, it's better to stay put and act as the opportunity arises."
"If things are as we guessed, it would be best if my father-in-law and An Ning are put first and it can be resolved privately."
Seeing that Qiao Zhongguo was so calm, Mrs. Qiao slowly calmed down as if she had found a backbone.
She wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded slightly.
"I listen to my husband. The top priority is to find evidence to determine who the biological father of the child is."
"My father already knows about Li Xusheng's existence. I hope he can calm down when the matter is exposed."
"The most pitiable child is An Ning. She is looking forward to her parents getting back together. She is so well-behaved, and it really hurts my heart to see her."
Qiao Zhongguo sighed softly, "It's best to hide this matter from An Ning until then. No wonder the father-in-law wants to entrust this child's marriage to you, madam. Her parents are indeed unreliable."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Qiao thought of what happened during the day again.
"I heard from Jiaojiao today that it turns out that An Ning and Tan Zhuangyuan have a long history, and Da Lang has also asked about it, and Tan Zhuangyuan has never been married."
Qiao Zhongguo's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
"That boy Tan is indeed excellent. His character and strategy are both top-notch. This boy An Ning is demure and polite, and he has a clear sense of right and wrong. He is indeed a perfect match for boy Tan."
"In this way, let's find an opportunity for my father-in-law to meet Mr. Tan. If my father-in-law nods, we will see if their young man has this intention."
"If it works out, we'll be the matchmakers to make this a good marriage."
Mrs. Qiao finally felt relieved after hearing this.
"Husband, fortunately you are here. I feel really sad this afternoon."
Qiao Zhongguo touched Mrs. Qiao's face tenderly.
"Madam, if you have anything to do in the future, tell me immediately. You don't have to wait until night. Madam's matters are extremely important to me."
Mrs. Qiao was deeply moved when she heard this and nodded gently, "Okay."
Qiao Zhongguo hugged her tightly.
"Madam, have a good rest tonight. I will take you to see Lao Da tomorrow, the brother who died for his husband!"
