Chapter 199 : Lu Yunxiang is pregnant
Gu family.
Gu Qingyu paced nervously while holding her phone.
Ever since Pang Chunzhu was arrested, she had been on edge, terrified of being implicated.
Her originally foolproof plan was to trick that blind girl into the new classroom and let her breathe in formaldehyde for two hours. Surely, the baby in her belly would not survive!
Who would have thought he’d be so useless!
He couldn’t even handle something so simple.
It was bad enough that he got caught, even worse, as soon as Lu Yunyao entered the room, she smashed the windows, letting the formaldehyde escape. The girl inhaled none of it at all.
The baby in her belly was perfectly fine!
When Gu Qingyu heard this news, she couldn’t help but blame Pang Chunzhu in her heart.
Didn’t he know to find another classroom? With so many connected desks and chairs, there was no way Lu Yunyao could move them.
If that had been the case, she could have stayed in the formaldehyde-filled classroom until the baby was gone!
Why was he so foolish?
Just then, a servant reported that Bai Xuan had arrived.
“Quick, let her in.”
As soon as Bai Xuan entered and saw Gu Qingyu’s grim expression, she knew her plan had likely failed.
“Miss Gu, are you worried about something?”
Gu Qingyu forced a stiff smile, “No.”
The idea of using formaldehyde to harm Lu Yunyao was only thought of by Gu Qingyu after Bai Xuan reminded her.
That day, Bai Xuan came to Gu’s house and passed by the newly painted hot spring pool. She said unintentionally:
“Fortunately, it was in the open air, so the formaldehyde dissipated quickly. If it was in a closed room, the formaldehyde concentration would be too high, and it would be terrible for pregnant women and children to smell it.”
It was just that one sentence that gave Gu Qingyu a reminder.
She thought about it for a few days and came up with a foolproof plan!
I thought Lu Yunyao would not be able to escape this time, but who knew that she would fail in the end.
Bai Xuan asked gently, “Miss Gu, I heard that your second sister-in-law is pregnant?”
Gu Qingyu’s second sister-in-law, her second brother’s wife, is Lu Yunxiang.
Some time ago, Lu Yunxiang was also found to be pregnant.
As luck would have it, she got pregnant around the same time as Lu Yunyao, with a not-too-long difference in time.
Gu Qingyu looked a little unhappy.
“Well, my parents arranged a new room for her so that she can rest and take care of her baby.”
Wealthy families, just like the big families in ancient times, attach great importance to offspring.
So even if the second brother is an illegitimate child, he will still be treated well as long as his wife is pregnant.
“I brought some supplements for your second sister-in-law. Eat them regularly. It’s good for the fetus.”
Gu Qingyu didn’t even raise her eyelids, “Oh, you are thoughtful.”
She wished Lu Yunxiang would just disappear.
Bai Xuan’s gifts for Lu Yunxiang would be thrown out soon.
That lowly woman, who coveted Si Han, had no right to take supplements. It would be best if she miscarried and was cast out by her family.
Bai Xuan casually remarked, “But you shouldn’t overdo the supplements, otherwise, the baby might grow too large and cause complications during birth.”
“I know. Do you have anything else?”
Gu Qingyu was starting to feel impatient.
Her mood was already sour due to her failed scheme, and with Bai Xuan constantly bringing up her eyesore, Lu Yunxiang, it was hard for her to feel pleased!
For a moment, the smile on Bai Xuan’s face faded.
“I won’t disturb you any longer, Miss Gu. I’ll take my leave.”
Bai Xuan said her goodbyes and left.
Gu Qingyu glanced at the pile of supplements with disdain and ordered, “Get rid of all of these!”
“Yes.”
The servant was about to grab the stack of supplements to throw them out when Gu Qingyu suddenly remembered something and her eyes lit up.
“Wait, don’t throw them out just yet.”
These items might still come in handy.

Recently, Lu Yunxiang had been living quite comfortably at the Gu family estate.
Ever since she found out she was pregnant, she left the shabby little attic and moved closer to the main residence.
Every day, she was surrounded by ten or more servants attending to her every need, bustling about more than when she was at the Lu family home.
As Lu Yunxiang fiddled with her newly done nails, she ordered, “Make tonight’s dishes spicier. The way you cook is so bland that even a dog wouldn’t want to eat it.”
The servants hesitated, “But, madam, too much spice isn’t good for the fetus. You’ve been eating spicy food every day, and it might be too much for the baby.”
Lu Yunxiang slammed her hand on the table.
“Are you the servant or am I? I just want a decent meal, and you’re all here talking back. Do you think I’m unworthy of eating Gu family food?”
“I’ll have you know, I’m carrying the Gu family’s eldest grandson! If any of you dare to slight me, don’t blame me or my son for holding a grudge!”
She had the confidence!
The child in her belly was her greatest source of power.
Madam Gu had only one son and one daughter. Her eldest son, Gu Maoliu, was always chasing after women and, at over thirty, hadn’t left behind a single heir.
No matter how the family tried to persuade him, he refused to settle down and start a family.
The youngest daughter, Gu Qingyu, only has Fu Sichan on her mind. Even though Fu Sichan is married, she still plans to be a nun for the rest of her life.
Therefore, the head of the Gu family attaches great importance to the child in Lu Yunxiang’s belly.
Although he is an illegitimate child, as the saying goes, grandchildren are closely related to each other, and the head of the Gu family will definitely love his only grandson.
The servant couldn’t persuade her and had to agree.
“We’ll go cook and give you some more chili.”
“That’s more like it.”
Lu Yunxiang smiled with satisfaction.
She didn’t let others call her “Second Young Madam”, but called her “Young Madam”.
Marrying an illegitimate child is the greatest shame in her life!
But…all this will change once the baby in my belly is born.
By then, even Gu Qingyu will be trampled under her feet.
Lu Yunxiang seemed to have already anticipated her own glorious future.
Her face showed a strong sense of anticipation and pride.
When I give birth to my eldest grandson, my child will inherit the Gu family, and I will be the future mistress of the Gu family!
The Fu family has three branches in total, while the Gu family has only one lineage. In comparison, Lu Yunyao is not as good as her.
Thinking of this, Lu Yunxiang became even more excited.
“Someone, prepare a car for me. I need to go out and get my hair done.”
“Madam, you are pregnant. Would it be inappropriate to do your hair?”
Lu Yunxiang glared at him with disdain, “You are a servant and you want to control me? Who do you think you are? Just do your own job well!”
“If anyone dares to tell this to the rest of the Gu family, I will make sure you all pay the price.”
Lu Yunxiang walked out of the room with her head held high, like a rooster with high morale.
The servant behind him wanted to speak but didn’t dare to.
This second young lady always looks like a smug person, and doesn’t look like a daughter of a wealthy family at all.
If she continues to do this every day, it is still unknown whether the baby in her belly can be born safely.
