Old Madam Zhou's pupils shrank slightly and she glanced at Zhou Zigu.

Then, Youyou said, "Don't take what's spread outside to heart. Nan Sheng has suffered so much injustice and carried so much infamy for you. You absolutely cannot owe her anything anymore."

Zhou Zigu frowned and couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows.

He said with some displeasure: "Mother, I know Sheng'er treats me well, but is she the only one who has paid for it? Isn't it for her, for our Mu Sheng, that I am doing this?

I just want to know what's going on between her and Xiang Zhuangyu. Why do you have to bring up these things?"

Zhou Zigu was particularly irritable tonight.

Old Madam Zhou opened her mouth.

There was a moment of hesitation on his face.

Then he said impatiently: "I've already said that the two of them were just acting. Now that Xiang Zhuangyu is dead, this matter is over.

As for the child in Nan Sheng's belly, it can only be attributed to Zhuang Xiangyu. It is also a matter of time if it is registered under your name later.

I asked her if she was willing to give birth in the manor like when she gave birth to Mu Sheng, but she didn't want to leave the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion, so this was the only way."

Old Madam Zhou chattered on and on, arranging everything.

Zhou Zigu pressed on, "Could it be that she and Xiang Zhuangyu slept on the same bed without their clothes in disarray?"

When Old Madam Zhou heard this, she immediately raised her head and looked at Zhou Zigu in disbelief.

He opened his mouth and said, "How...how do you know..."

She had clearly given the order regarding that matter, and no one was allowed to speak of it.

how come…

Zhou Zigu took a deep breath.

Then he said, "There have been rumors for a long time that Sheng'er and Xiang Zhuangyu were living together without regard for their relationship. Now Xiang Zhuangyu is dead, and Sheng'er is pregnant with his posthumous child."

Old Madam Zhou quickly stepped forward and took Zhou Zigu's hand.

She defended herself, "Those are just rumors! It must be Jiang Wanqing! She doesn't want Nan Sheng to have an easy life, so she asked these people to spread these rumors."

Zhou Zigu looked at his mother without saying a word.

He knew that his mother still favored Song Nansheng a little.

Zhou Zigu took a deep breath.

Then he asked, "Mother, you don't have to tell me so much. I just want to ask one question: did Sheng'er sleep on the same bed with Xiang Zhuangyu in dishevel? Did she or didn't she?"

Zhou Zigu’s eyes were fixed on Old Madam Zhou.

Waiting for her answer.

Facing his son's relentless pressure.

Old Madam Zhou closed her eyes and nodded.

Finally, he said, "But, in the end, nothing happened. It was just Jiang Wanqing's trick."

Zhou Zigu pursed his lips.

His brows were deeply furrowed, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

There was no reply yet.

Upon seeing this, Old Madam Zhou briefly told Zhou Zigu what had happened that day.

After hearing this, Zhou Zigu remained silent for a long time.

After a long time, he looked at Old Madam Zhou.

He opened his mouth and asked, "So, you didn't see what happened between Sheng'er and him. There was so much time during this period, no one can guarantee what happened."

When Old Madam Zhou heard this, she knew that Zhou Zigu was beginning to suspect Song Nansheng.

I couldn't help but say, "But, Nan Sheng loves you so much, she will definitely not betray you."

When Zhou Zigu heard this, there was a hint of bitterness on his face.

But she said, "But you also said that she was unconscious at that time. How do you know whether she was succeeded or not?"

After a pause, Zhou Zigu continued, "Sheng'er and I have been together for so many years and we have no children. But now, she has only come to the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion once. Could it be that she got pregnant with my child so easily?"

Madam Zhou opened her eyes wide.

I realized it later and then remembered something.

Yes.

After giving birth to Mu Sheng, the two had no children for so many years.

Could it be a coincidence that she got pregnant with a child just that one time after returning home?

Mrs. Zhou suddenly felt a little depressed.

Looking at Zhou Zigu, he asked tentatively: "Do you think that the child in her belly is not your child?"

Zhou Zigu shook his head and slowly closed his eyes: "I don't know either, but I can't afford to gamble. She and I are still very young, and we will have children in the future."

Once these words were spoken, the life or death of the child was decided.

Although Old Madam Zhou was unhappy, since it concerned the child's bloodline, she couldn't say much.

only…

Madam Zhou asked worriedly, "Nan Sheng's relationship with Xiang Zhuangyu was not what she wanted. How are you going to treat her in the future?"

After all, Song Nansheng is her family member. Song Nansheng has wasted so many years on Zhou Zigu, and she couldn't help but want to give Song Nansheng some points.

Zhou Zigu didn't disappoint her.

Zhou Zigu replied, "Sheng'er is different to me after all. Let's make that child disappear without anyone noticing. Just think of it as an accident. The child is gone, and this matter is over."

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhou heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, she sighed again: "I have wronged you. When you come back, mother will arrange a few beautiful concubines for you."

Zhou Zigu waved his hand: "Let's talk about this later. I don't know when I will be able to come back."

Hearing this, Old Madam Zhou couldn't help but echo a few words: "Didn't they say that they would be back soon? Why is it that now it has to be delayed for some time!"

When this was mentioned, Zhou Zigu became a little annoyed.

It is obvious that the Duke Zhenguo’s Mansion will lose this border town battle.

He had already burned all the food and fodder, cutting off the rear supply.

Who knew that at the critical moment, another person would appear to collect food donations!

We gave the defense map to the opponent, but we still ended up fighting such an ugly battle!

Zhou Zigu felt extremely annoyed when he thought about how His Royal Highness Prince Cheng'an had lost his temper that day.

Then he said in a deep voice: "We need to think about this matter carefully! Mother, just keep the house safe for me."

Madam Zhou shook her head helplessly.

With a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes, he said, "But, Mu Sheng still needs you as her biological father to teach her. Now, Jiang Wanqing is only concerned about her precious daughter and never pays attention to Mu Sheng."

Zhou Zigu's brows were furrowed, he still cared about the child.

Then he asked, "Who is teaching Mu Sheng now?"

Madam Zhou replied, "An old scholar. I checked and found that he is just an old scholar."

"Old scholar?"

Zhou Zigu suddenly became a little uneasy.

Even though Mr. Wu Chen is unwilling to teach his child, at least there has to be a top scholar to teach the child, right?

Jiang Wanqing really doesn't care about her son!

At that moment, he said in a deep voice: "I want to see, if her daughter is gone! I want to see which child she will care about again!"
