Mo Xiuzhi was unaware that her secret had already been exposed. She wore a hurt expression and said, "Grandmother, how can you speak like this? How have I done anything improper?"
"You still have the nerve to feign innocence. They've come knocking on our door. Nanny Zhang says you're over three months pregnant and it's clearly not the General's child. Tell me, whose wild seed is that in your belly?"
Upon hearing this, it was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky. Mo Xiuzhi was dumbfounded, "You… you… what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Keep pretending, keep pretending. Divine Doctor Zhang has already diagnosed it and said that the fetus is over three months old."
Only then did Mo Xiuzhi suddenly understand. No wonder the Old Madam had asked her to go to the Refreshing Courtyard this morning to have Divine Doctor Zhang examine her. Clearly, they had this ulterior motive in mind, and all of a sudden, her face turned deathly pale.
