Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 72 Treason

Night falls.

Pei family.

Pei Qingyan was sitting at the table, watching Shen Jiahe holding a bowl of pregnancy-maintaining medicine and drinking it sip by sip.

His thoughts unconsciously drifted to the day when he and Jiang Wanqiao divorced.

She said that Shen Jiahe's pregnancy was more than two months...

At that time, he just thought she was just talking nonsense, how could she know any medical skills...

But recently, things about her kept coming into his ears.

They're all about how superb her medical skills are.

Even today, she was personally picked up by someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion, which made Pei Qingyan feel a little uneasy for no reason.

Is it...

Is she really a doctor?

Otherwise, even if those tricks in the market were just her tricks, how could she have the guts to go to the prime minister's residence and cheat people?

Although the future of Prime Minister Song's residence was uncertain, crushing a merchant's daughter would be as easy as crushing an ant...

She can't be that stupid!

"What are you thinking about, my husband?"

Shen Jiahe's voice interrupted Pei Qingyan's wandering thoughts.

Pei Qingyan came back to his senses and looked at the woman in front of him who was looking at him with tender eyes.

A sense of guilt suddenly came over me.

How could he think of Jiahe like that!

She is so gentle and kind, and even now that she has become a princess, she never puts on airs in the mansion, and everyone in the mansion praises her endlessly.

This woman Jiang Wanqiao is so vicious.

She was proving her medical skills this time, perhaps to make him believe that what she said was true.

Even though she no longer has him in her heart, she doesn't want him to live a good life with Jiahe.

Pei Qingyan thought about taking the bowl from Shen Jiahe's hand and feeding her himself.

"Nothing, I just suddenly became curious. Will our child look more like you or me in the future?"

Shen Jiahe looked at the spoon that was handed to his lips, drank it obediently, then wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, pursed his lips and smiled.

"It's still early. It's a bit too early for you to start thinking about it now, my husband."

Shen Jiahe said this while trying to take the bowl back from Pei Qingyan.

"I'm not a patient now. My husband is acting like this and is going to be laughed at."

Perhaps because of the guilt in his heart, Pei Qingyan stubbornly did not let go, but scooped another spoonful and handed it to her lips.

"What's so funny about this? You're carrying the eldest grandson of my family. Not only me, but even my father and mother are looking forward to the birth of this child."

"You are now the most precious person in my mansion, and you deserve it in any way."

Shen Jiahe's expression became softer.

"With my husband's words, no matter what grievances I endure, it's all worth it."

When Pei Qingyan heard this, he thought of what happened on his wedding day, and the guilt in his heart became even heavier.

"On the day of your wedding, it was my mother who was wrong. I wronged you."

"The incident has already happened. Rumor has spread in the mansion that a dishonest servant stole the betrothal gifts and switched the bride price. I believe that after a while, the people will forget about it. You are pregnant now, so don't think too much about it."

The thing that Shangjing has the most is topics of conversation. Although he still feels embarrassed when he thinks about what happened that day, no matter whether anyone believes it or not, this matter will soon be covered up by new things.

Shen Jiahe nodded.

"Mother also means well. Don't worry, husband. I won't take it to heart."

"It's just that I'm sitting here with nothing to do all day, which is really boring. Could you please talk to my mother on my behalf and ask her to let me do something?"

"Or... aren't there some problems with the shops out there? Mother is in charge of all the affairs of the mansion, and I think she's a little overwhelmed."

"Now that the shop has been mortgaged again, if the business can't be improved and the money can't be repaid on time, the Marquis's family will be destroyed. I now have some ideas. I want to take over this matter and give it a try. This way, I can also help mother share her worries."

"What do you think, my husband?"

When Pei Qingyan heard Shen Jiahe say that he wanted to take over those shops, he was a little hesitant.

"But now you are pregnant, why do you work so hard?"

"Don't worry, I've already personally found capable managers. Once they take over the shop, I think there won't be any problems maintaining normal operations. Let's talk about this after you give birth."

Shen Jia refused.

"But once you take on the real job, you'll have to go to the government office every day, and I'll be really bored staying at home alone."

"Besides, the doctor also said that I should exercise more often, right? Husband, just consider it as a way for me to relax."

Seeing that she was so persistent, Pei Qingyan did not continue to object.

Didn't Jiang Wanqiao always think he was great because he managed a few shops?

Jiahe was intelligent and came from a noble family. As the mistress of a mansion, it was natural for her to be in charge of the household affairs.

Therefore, she must be doing no worse than her!

When she makes the shop flourish, he wants to see what else Jiang can be proud of!

Pei Qingyan thought about it and nodded.

"Well, it's great that you're willing to share your mother's worries."

"But you are pregnant after all, so you must bring more people with you when you go out to avoid any accidents."

A gleam of light flashed in Shen Jiahe's eyes when he heard this.

"Don't worry, my husband. I know my limits."

Pei Qingyan nodded.

"Okay, it's getting late today. I have to go to the palace to thank the Queen Mother tomorrow. After you finish your medicine, go to bed. Father said he has some things to tell me, so I have to go to his study."

"Okay, my husband will get busy."

Pei Qingyan immediately stood up and left. After the footsteps faded away, Shen Jiahe told Yinxin to close the door and took out a piece of letter from his sleeve.

But the words on the letter were obviously not Tianqi's.

"Miss, do you really want to do what that person says?"

Shen Jiahe looked at the familiar handwriting carefully, and the smile on his face became more genuine.

"Of course, he is the father of my unborn child."

"It is also my real support in the future."

Although Yinxin had long known that the reason she and the young lady were able to escape was all due to that person's handiwork, and he naturally had his own motives in letting the young lady come back.

But when the moment really came, she was still a little scared.

"Miss, the Queen Mother and her husband are both treating you well now... If you tell them the truth..."

However, Shen Jiahe's expression changed and he interrupted Yin Xin.

"Shut up! Have you forgotten what I told you last time? Do you think Pei Qingyan would still treat me like this if he knew the truth?"

"As for Su Jinyue (the Queen Mother's name), she simply uses me to build up her own power because she has no capable people around her."

"And...why am I the only one who has to endure such hardships, while Su Jinyue can sit back and reap the benefits! If I hadn't refused to enter the palace to serve the old emperor, she wouldn't be where she is today!"

"The Su family was just a bunch of parasites that lived off our Shen family, and now I have to rely on someone who is inferior to me in every way! How can I accept this?"

"One day, I will trample them all under my feet!"

Yinxin looked at Shen Jiahe's somewhat crazy look and became more and more uneasy.

Once they take that step...

But it's treason.
