Chapter 158 Commendation
Chapter 158 Commendation
A month and a half later, Lin Junchen received a reward for his efforts in fighting the plague. Not only was he rewarded with silver, but he was also promoted. For a time, the General's Mansion was in the limelight.
The excitement was not only in the General's Mansion, but also extended to the Tang family.
Early in the morning, Liu and Tang Jiang received many people who came to give gifts to Lin Yunrou.
"Congratulations, Master Tang, you have married a good wife."
"Your wife's nephew has been promoted this time, and the general's mansion is still honored."
"Hey? Why didn't you see Madam Ling come out? Let her come out so we can congratulate her in person."
Tang Jiang: ...
For three consecutive days, people who came to give gifts to Lin Yunrou almost broke down the door. The Tang Mansion had never been so lively.
Liu really couldn't bear it anymore and started to get furious in Qingyu Courtyard early in the morning.
"Isn't it just because she has a good family background? Is it really endless?" Liu said angrily, "She is a daughter who is like water spilled after marriage. What does the wedding of the general's mansion have to do with her? Why should she also enjoy the glory?"
"Look at how proud the master has been these days. He really wants to invite his wife to take charge again."
Wang Po sat aside and listened to her words. She pondered for a moment and said, "You are right. She is indeed from a good family. There is nothing wrong with that."
She had thought that Wang Po would go along with her, but now that she heard it, Liu almost jumped up: "What do you mean? Does a person like me who comes from a poor family deserve to be a worthless person for the rest of my life?"
"Not really." Wang Po sat there and said calmly, "I was just stating a fact."
"Grandma!" Liu was angry.
Wang Po continued, "Panchun, I have always said that we must admit the truth. But things also depend on human effort. Although Lin Yunrou's family background is not as good as ours, Wang Hua was still assigned to her shop, and the money in her shop also went into my pocket."
"If you were smarter, everything she has would be yours sooner or later!" said Wang Po.
After hearing this, Liu felt better.
At this moment, the door opened and Tang Yueer walked in. As she walked in, she asked, "Mom, what happened in the front hall? Why are there so many people?"
Liu was originally very happy that she was back, but when she heard this, her face darkened again. She said in a cold voice, "They are all gifts for Lin Yunrou."
"For Lin Yunrou?"
"Yes." Liu nodded and said, "Lin Junchen from the General's Mansion was promoted. These people can't enter the General's Mansion, so they come to the Tang family to curry favor with Lin Yunrou."
"Humph." Tang Yue'er snorted coldly after hearing this. She sat down and said coldly, "Since she can't get her father's favor, she can only rely on her mother's family to fight for face."
"What else does she have besides this?"
Liu liked to hear this, and her face looked much better.
When Wang Po saw Tang Yue'er coming today, she remembered that the last time she came, she asked Tang Yue'er to give Tang Wanru the soup that would make her infertile.
Then he asked, "Yuer, did you give the medicine to Tang Wanru last time?"
"Don't mention it." Thinking of this, Tang Yue'er felt upset. Somehow, her plan seemed to be ineffective on Tang Wanru. "It was all spilled. I couldn't give her a drink."
Wang Po frowned.
I thought to myself that this little bitch is really hard to deal with.
"But mother, grandma, I have something happy to tell you." Tang Yue'er and Liu leaned over together.
But Tang Yueer said, "I'm pregnant."
Pregnant?
Liu didn't understand what she meant at first, so she said, "What are you talking about? You've been pregnant for more than three months, and you're showing your pregnancy right away."
"Mom." Tang Yue'er looked at Liu and said, "It's not that child."
"I got pregnant not long ago."
what?
Liu and Wang Po were completely confused.
Tang Yueer added quietly: "The child is not Zhou Ziyue's!"
"boom!"
Liu only felt a "buzz" in her brain, and a loud thunder sounded!

Tang Mansion, Changfeng Courtyard.
Tang Wanru finally had time to go back to her parents' home. She was leaning on a recliner eating an apple that Xu Qing had peeled for her, looking very relaxed and contented.
Lin Yunrou looked at the gifts sent from the General's Mansion on the ground, feeling very strange, and murmured: "It's okay for outsiders to send gifts, but why did your aunt also send these things to me? What does she mean by this?"
Logically speaking, if Lin Junchen gets promoted, she should be the one to give the gift.
Lin Yunrou felt strange, and suddenly remembered that Tang Wanru also went to the banquet that day, so she asked, "Wanru, did you do something good when you went to the general's mansion?"
Tang Wanru, who was concentrating on eating an apple, looked up in surprise when she heard this: "What good news?"
Lin said, "Otherwise, why did your aunt suddenly send these gifts? If I didn't do anything, then it must be you who did something, right?"
"No." Tang Wanru smiled. "The plague in Lingquan Village was controlled by my cousin. What can I do?" As she said that, she leaned back and leisurely picked up a peach to eat.
Lin Yunrou thought what she said was a little strange, but she didn't think much about it. She ordered the servants to move the gifts to the warehouse.
Then she looked at Tang Wanru who was eating grapes and narrowed her eyes thoughtfully. She paused and asked, "Ruru, why do you have such a good appetite today?"
"Okay?" Tang Wanru had already finished the whole plate of fruit without realizing it. "I just feel hungry these past two days."
Hearing this, Lin Yunrou's heart skipped a beat. She leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Wanru, are you pregnant?"
Pregnant?
After hearing this, Tang Wanru paused while eating the fruit.
"Really?" In her previous life, Tang Wanru had been bleeding for many years because she drank the infertility soup. She had never thought about getting pregnant. This time, she was pregnant so soon?
Seeing that she was confused, Lin guessed it was almost right: "Your appetite has changed so much, you are probably pregnant. Did you have your period this month?"
