Grandma stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, she managed to hold on to the table behind her in time, but her lower back hit her head hard, causing her to gasp in pain.

Shi Hongyu was also startled, and quickly went to help her, and apologized to her grandma.

"Mommy, I'm sorry, is something wrong with you? I didn't mean to do it, alas!"

"It's okay, it's okay, my slave. Miss, I know that you were brought up by me. I know that you care about the young master the most. I know that it was the slave who spoke recklessly."

Grandma endured the pain and comforted Shi Hongyu.

For most of her life in the Shi family, she single-handedly raised Shi Hongyu and Shi Keshuang. In her heart, they were no different from her children, so how could she care about them.

But the more magnanimous her mother was, the more guilty Shi Hongyu felt inside.

Regardless of my grandma's obstruction, I still opened my clothes and took a look. I saw that my lower back was already red and swollen, which made me even more angry and anxious.

Finally, I had to ask the maid to help grandma down to rest.

But the guilt in her heart did not reduce Shi Hongyu's anxiety and helplessness.

Keshuang has hid before, but it was only for one night at most, but this time, it has been several days.

She had to think about that possibility.

It was because I pampered him so much that he didn't know the sinister nature of people's hearts and the sinister ways of the world.

Zhou Xiaomeng stood outside the door and listened for a while before getting ready to go in.

But he was stopped by a maid.

"I, I heard that your young master..."

"Boss Zhou, the house is in a mess now. I advise Boss Zhou to leave as soon as possible."

The maid's face was a little flustered, and she blinked and winked at Zhou Xiaomeng desperately.

Zhou Xiaomeng didn't know what it meant, so she stepped forward and was about to grab the maid's hand and ask what was going on, but she was thrown away by the maid.

At this time, Shi Hongyu in the hall seemed to have noticed the movement outside, and asked anxiously as he walked out.

"What's going on? Why are you blocking the door?"

"Shi, Miss Shi..."

Zhou Xiaomeng hurriedly walked to the left so that Shi Hongyu could see her body blocked by the maid, and then took the initiative to wave to Shi Hongyu.

But he watched helplessly as Shi Hongyu's originally anxious face turned into anger and dissatisfaction little by little.

"What are you doing here? Don't you think our family has been harmed enough by you?"

"Shi, what does this mean? Where did you start talking about it?"

Zhou Xiaomeng was confused and looked at Shi Hongyu in surprise, but Shi Hongyu's expression stung her again and deepened her inner doubts.

Shi Hongyu doesn't seem to have any sins.

Moreover, the maid kept holding her arm and whispered to her not to cause any more trouble.

Adding to the chaos?

Did she just arrive?

What trouble can it cause?

Why do you feel that today's historians are weird?

It seems that he is not welcome.

No, it doesn't mean she's not welcome, this is simply chasing her away!

Zhou Xiaomeng was confused and confused by this discovery.

Could it be that they suspected that they hid Shi Keshuang?

Just as he was about to explain, Shi Hongyu said "kick him out" and blocked him back. Looking at the pleading eyes of several maids, he had no choice but to leave first.

But she will never leave until things are clear.

I just don't know if it was Shi Hongyu's order, but two maids soon appeared at the door with eager eyes. They kept staring at her, obviously not wanting her to go in again.

This left her lingering at the door.

Until a carriage stopped in front of Shi's house, she saw that the person getting out was Shi Zhenxiang. She was about to step forward, but was winked and had to step aside.

About half an hour later, Shi Zhenxiang came out of Shi's house, and this time she did not ignore her, but secretly pointed to her side.

As soon as Zhou Xiaomeng saw Shi Zhenxiang, she quickly asked anxiously.

"Sister Shi, can you tell me? What is going on? Why?"

"I can't explain a sentence or two, let's talk while walking." Shi Zhenxiang didn't wait for Zhou Xiaomeng to finish speaking, and pulled her into the Shi family's carriage.

When they got to the carriage, Shi Zhenxiang looked at Zhou Xiaomeng and took the initiative to start chatting.

"I don't know the specifics. I just came back from being away these days. As soon as I came back, I received a letter from my cousin Shi Hongyu, saying that my cousin Shi Keshuang was missing, so I rushed over without stopping.

The maid who delivered the message probably said something on the way here. I wonder if Sister Zhou still remembers what I told you last time that my cousin Hongyu has been forcing my cousin Ke Shuang to go on a blind date? "

Zhou Xiaomeng nodded, not daring to take his eyes away from Shi Zhenxiang for fear of missing some important information.

"A few days ago, I received a letter from my mother. The letter mentioned that Ke Shuang had successfully dated a wealthy businessman from out of town. I was very happy about this. I thought that Ke Shuang's life-long event was finally settled.

But I didn’t expect that in just a few days, a scandal would spread.”

"scandal?"

Zhou Xiaomeng grasped these two words keenly and looked at Shi Zhenxiang anxiously and urgently.

"The woman broke off the engagement and made a big fuss at home. She said that Ke Shuang's cousin was already two months pregnant. People suspected that we had the intention of letting her become a cheap girl."

"What?" Zhou Xiaomeng stood up in the carriage in shock.

"Sister Zhou, why did you react so strongly? Could it be that you already knew about my cousin? Is it possible? Is it possible..."

Zhou Xiaomeng's reaction not only made her suspicious of her cousin Shi Hongyu's words.

"I, I just can't think of it. After all, Shi Keshuang doesn't seem to have much interest in women."

Zhou Xiaomeng's heart sank when she met Shi Zhenxiang's contemplating gaze, and she quickly thought of something to say.

"Indeed, even we didn't think of it. Ke Shuang was brought up by Hong Yu. They have a deep relationship as siblings. When Hong Yu was young, she was engaged to a man. Later, the man died in an accident, and Hong Yu never had a relationship again.

It means getting married.

Over time, many people began to spread rumors that Hongyu actually liked a woman. Hongyu had a stubborn temper and was unwilling to explain. She just focused more on running her business and raising Keshuang.

Keshuang probably didn't want others to arrange Hongyu, so he behaved even more wildly, making people mistakenly think that he liked men.

Moreover, he didn’t want to leave Hongyu to take care of the huge family of historians all by himself after getting married, so he repeatedly refused to accept blind dates with women.”

For the first time, Zhou Xiaomeng knew exactly what happened to Shi Hongyu and Shi Keshuang.

Things that I had been confused about before finally became clear.

When she heard the rumors about Shi Hongyu and Shi Keshuang before, she did have the intention of gossiping, but after contacting them, she felt that it didn't seem to be the case.

It turns out that this is what happened.

Shi Zhenxiang examined Zhou Xiaomeng for a while, but didn't see anything, so she continued.

"After Hongyu knew that Keshuang was unwilling to get married for her own sake, she felt even more guilty and always wanted to find someone for Keshuang to rely on.

Ke Shuang and you were really close to each other a few days ago. Many people in Qingshui County were spreading rumors about you and Ke Shuang. They also said that Ke Shuang was going to marry you and be your side wife. Some even said that you two

The boundaries have already been exceeded.

This made Hong Yu so angry that she forced Ke Shuang to agree to go on a blind date and get married, but Ke Shuang couldn't stand Hong Yu and agreed.

Hongyu originally thought that the major issue on her mind would be solved.

But she didn’t expect that just when she was busy arranging for Ke Shuang’s wedding, she suddenly heard the bad news that Ke Shuang was pregnant.”

"Is it true that he, he is really pregnant?"

Zhou Xiaomeng looked at Shi Zhenxiang nervously and asked anyway.

"Hongyu asked several doctors to check Keshuang's pulse, and they all found positive pulses." Shi Zhenxiang continued to observe Zhou Xiaomeng as she spoke. Seeing Zhou Xiaomeng's nervousness, the doubts in her heart began to revive again.

When Zhou Xiaomeng was caught off guard, he suddenly put his hand on hers, half suspicious and half testing.

"Sister Zhou, tell me the truth. Does my cousin Ke Shuang's pregnancy have anything to do with you?"

"I...I don't know, I have a husband at home."

Zhou Xiaomeng was nervous. Yes, she lied.

Although she did not directly deny it, she did mean to dispel doubts about herself.

Just after saying that, she regretted it.

What's the difference between me and a scumbag like this?

But the fact is that she was really nervous. When someone questioned her face to face, she really had to be nervous and instinctively wanted to excuse herself.

But the more this happened, the more guilty I felt.
