My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant

Huo Xingzhou stretched out his fingers and slowly smoothed her frown.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Qiao Xi shook her head, "I'm thinking about something."

The cooperation between Huo Xingzhou and Zhong Yi was a bit strange, and it also involved the needle test conference. The woman's intuition told her that there must be something going on here.

She asked Huo Xingzhou about Zhong Yi, but didn't get any useful information.

Besides, he's always jealous.

This time, I need to find someone else to verify it.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and raised the corners of her lips: "I just want to ask you, are you going to attend Zhong Yi and Lu Yingxue's engagement party? Lu Yingxue invited me very enthusiastically today. I neither refused nor agreed. I said I would go home and ask you. the meaning of."

"When the Zhong and Lu families get married, all the respectable families in the imperial capital will attend. It will be very lively, and we can't shirk it."

If the Huo family wants to enter the imperial capital, they must show their face on such an occasion.

"Ah."

Qiao Xi concealed her emotions and nodded obediently.

……

the next day.

The sky is bright.

However, the Lu family welcomed a special guest.

The housekeeper said politely: "Mr. Zhao, please come in. Our husband is already waiting in the living room."

Zhao Chang was wearing a suit, and his belly was sticking out.

He looked around at the buildings and sighed: "As expected of a wealthy family in the imperial capital, even the Lu family can occupy such a good piece of land. It's not like us mud-legged people can compare. Hahaha..."

"Mr. Zhao, please come this way."

"it is good."

Zhao Chang carried two bottles of finely bound medicinal wine in his hand, walked to the living room and shouted roughly: "Mr. Lu, long time no see. This is the good wine from my hometown I brought to you. This medicinal wine is a new industry line developed by our factory. .”

Lu Bannong glanced at it and asked the housekeeper to put it away.

Then he said politely: "Sit down and drink tea."

Zhao Chang sat on the sofa, took a few sips from the tea cup and made a noise.

"I'm a rough man. I can't drink this good or bad tea, so I just want to quench my thirst." Zhao Chang put down the teacup, "Mr. Lu, I am a rich man who started his business growing Chinese medicinal materials in the southwest. I speak directly. Please, please Forgive me."

Lu Bannong concealed his disdain and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao has made the medicinal material business so big and is a well-known figure in the southwest. There is no need to be so humble, heroes do not ask where they come from. I was just a small Chinese medicine practitioner back then..."

"You are now a living Bodhisattva who helps those in need. I won't talk in circles with you. It's been two years since my wife passed away, and it's time to remarry. Doctor Lu, I have fallen in love with your niece."

Zhao Chang raised his head and looked at him with a smile, "What do you think?"

Lu Bannong looked calm on the face, but sneered in his heart.

Zhao Chang was old enough to be his brother, but he wanted to be his nephew and son-in-law.

If the Lu family hadn't needed the source of medicinal materials in the southwest, he wouldn't have been able to meet someone like Zhao Chang. It turns out that the Qian family's medicinal material factory was controlled by Zhong Yi, but Lu Bannong always felt that it was a hidden danger.

"This...you and Mingzhu..." Lu Bannong smiled but did not finish his sentence.

But everything is left unsaid.

Zhao Chang spoke in a rough voice: "Doctor Lu, I promise that if we become a family, the Lu family's Chinese medicine hall will never be out of stock. Last time the Qian family fell, you didn't have to worry too much. One Xiang Mingzhu, in exchange for ten years A stable source of medicinal materials will be given priority to the Lu family, and the contract will be signed and notarized."

Since Zhao Chang dares to come to the door, he must investigate clearly.

The Lu family didn't help the Xiang family when they went bankrupt, so a niece wasn't very important to Lu Bannong. Xiang Mingzhu also caused a lot of troubles, and he was half the culprit for the family's downfall.

He, Zhao Chang, loves beautiful women, especially such a stubborn and arrogant young lady.

Xiang Mingzhu's appearance is also first-class.

"How are you, Divine Doctor Lu?"

Zhao Chang looked at him with a smile, and his face looked much kinder.

Lu Bannong drank tea and said leisurely: "Mr. Zhao, this is my sister's daughter after all."

"Didn't your sister recuperate abroad for many years and never return to China? As an uncle, you can still make the decision on a niece's marriage."

"Mr. Zhao, Mingzhu is stubborn."

"As long as you nod, I will take care of the rest. I love stubborn women. Doctor Lu, I know this is difficult for you. As long as you acquiesce, it is enough. There is no need to announce the marriage or anything like that."

Zhao Chang could tell that Lu Bannong was the same type of person as him, only seeking profit.

But he is even more shameless than Lu Bannong. The Lu family wants both face and profit.

Lu Bannong heard what he said and said, "Okay. Mingzhu has been in a bad mood recently and always goes to the bar to drink away her sorrows."

"Thank you, Doctor Lu."

Zhao Chang smiled happily, Lu Bannong had given enough information. However, he still wanted to go one step further and get a ticket to the Imperial Capital Business District.

"I heard that Miss Lu and Mr. Zhong are engaged on the 8th. I also want to go to the engagement banquet of the first family in the imperial capital. I wonder if..."

Lu Bannong understood: "I will send someone to send you an invitation letter."

"Thank you very much."

Zhao Chang was satisfied.

I gained a lot from this trip to the Imperial Capital.

"Mr. Zhao, do you want to stay for dinner? I'll let the kitchen prepare it." Lu Bannong said with a smile, but he held the teapot in his hand and filled up the tea in front of him.

Zhao Chang saw it and immediately understood what he meant.

Send guests off with plenty of tea.

"I still have some business to discuss, so I won't bother Dr. Lu anymore. Farewell!"

Zhao Chang left with a smile.

"Butler, give one to Mr. Zhao as a gift."

"You're too polite. I can just go by myself. Rough people don't have that much respect."

Zhao Chang strode out of the Lu family's villa, and Lu Bannong lowered his eyes and drank tea. The cold expression was covered by his long beard.

Lu Yingxue slowly walked down the stairs. She eavesdropped for a long time and knew Zhao Chang's purpose.

"Father."

She walked up to Lu Bannong and shouted, "Is Zhao Chang really attracted to Xiang Mingzhu? That's her blessing."

Her eyes rolled, and the ripples of water flowed, revealing a bit of smile.

"Being able to exchange a discarded piece of medicine for a ten-year supply of medicinal materials can be regarded as a profitable business." Lu Bannong drank the tea in the tea cup in one gulp.

Lu Yingxue smiled calculatingly: "Xiang Mingzhu has delusions about Zhong Yi, and there's no guarantee that she won't do something stupid to destroy our couple in the future. And Zhong Yi has a deep mind, so he won't worry even if the medicinal material factory gets it. Zhao Chang's actions, for It’s beneficial to us.”

It not only solved the hidden danger of Xiang Mingzhu, but also brought real benefits to the Lu family.

Lu Bannong looked at her and said, "Have you found out anything about Zhong Yi?"

It is the consensus reached by father and daughter that there is a problem with Zhong Yi, but no matter what the outcome is, it will not affect the marriage between the two families.

It’s just that I will be more wary of Zhong Yi in the future.

Lu Yingxue turned to look at Lu Bannong faintly: "The clues I found will definitely shock you!"

"Tell me."

Lu Bannong looked serious.
