Chapter 1043

Dongxi found the scene in front of her very annoying. The more courteous the lady was to her aunt, the more she felt that the lady was hypocritical.

If he really valued her aunt, why would he throw her into the marquis's mansion to be a laundry maid and slap her aunt in the face?

Zeng's mother then realized that her niece had no manners at all. Since the lady entered the room, her niece had not greeted her or performed any formalities.

She couldn't help but blushing, and scolded her niece, "Dongxi, why don't you kneel down and greet the lady?"

Dongxi's unhappiness was completely exposed on her face when she heard this. She stood straight, turning a deaf ear to her aunt's words, but she had an inexplicable sense of dignity.

Shi Anxia glanced at Dong Xi calmly, not getting annoyed, "It's okay. Miss Dong Xi has high aspirations, and being a servant is a waste of her talent. I asked Madam Zeng to come here today because I wanted to explain things to her face to face."

When Zeng's mother heard this, how could her face be happy?

She knew that the Madam was not a mean person and would not be a hermaphrodite. She thought that her niece must have done something wrong, so she lowered her face and asked, "Dongxi, what did you do to upset the Madam?"

The grievances in Dongxi's heart surged in like a surging river. Tears flowed down her face. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Anxia say, "I'm not unhappy, but I'm afraid that the coffin of your old Zeng family can no longer be covered."

When Zeng's mother heard this, she knew that the matter was serious.

Sure enough, the lady's next sentence was like a thunderbolt, "Dongxi is pregnant."

Dong Xi's eyes went dark, "!!!"

Zeng's mother's eyes blurred, "!!!"

What a bolt from the blue!

Dongxi was also panicking, "Nonsense!"

She didn't even know she was pregnant, how could the lady know?

But then I thought, God, there's good news! She's pregnant with Mr. Li's child! She, she, she...

Shi Anxia glanced at Xiyue slowly.

Xiyue stepped forward and grabbed Dongxi's hand and felt it. "It is indeed a pregnancy pulse. If you don't believe in my medical skills, you can call a doctor outside to check your pulse."

"No need." Zeng's mother was as happy as she was when she first came, but now she was as embarrassed and annoyed. Although she was just a servant, she always attached great importance to her reputation.

She only believes in one thing: only when you respect yourself can others respect you. If you despise yourself by three points, how can others respect you by seven points?

Mother Zeng said solemnly, "I believe what Madam says. Madam will never wrongly accuse anyone." What she was afraid of now was that her niece might have climbed into the bed of the Prince Consort.

She just remembered that the Madam was not just the Madam, but also Princess Haiyan. A princess with golden branches and jade leaves, with golden words and jade words. If her Dongxi was defiled...

Shi Anxia knew what she was thinking and shook her head, "Mother Zeng is mistaken. My son-in-law is a self-respecting man and would never do something that would embarrass him."

Mother Zeng exhaled heavily, and the aroma of tea filled her nose again. She patted her chest and said, "Good, it's good that she's not the prince consort. This damn girl has no sense of shame, and she shouldn't pollute the princess's eyes. I'll take her home and deal with her now."
