Chapter 67 The big joy is coming

While Su Qinghuan was thinking about it, two subordinates of Xu Dadang's family dragged a woman over. Because of her big belly, they were quite polite and did not throw her to the ground.

The woman was dirty all over, her hair was knotted, and her body smelled of sweat. She seemed to have not taken a shower for many days.

She looked at the corpses and blood on the ground, her face turned pale and her whole body was trembling.

"It doesn't look like their family either." Mrs. Xu muttered.

The woman looks in her early twenties, has an ordinary appearance, a bit big face, and a relatively...solid figure, looking like a woman from the village.

"Who are you? Why are you on the boat?" Di Suixin asked.

The woman trembled and said, "I am from the capital and I run a silk shop at home... My parents wanted me to recruit a son-in-law to marry into a wife, but I didn't pick the right one, so I dragged it until now..."

The bad guys of the Salt Gang didn't know how to be sympathetic and giggled when they heard this. Someone said directly: "So you can't stand the loneliness, have you found a wild man?"

"No, I don't..." The woman blushed, and her faint voice suddenly became louder.

However, she quickly realized where she was now and did not dare to speak loudly anymore, but for some reason she was sad again and covered her face and started crying.

Mrs. Xu was most impatient with the woman crying and scolded: "Why are you crying? Talk well! Why don't you just sleep with a man? What's wrong?"

The people around him immediately didn't dare to make a sound.

The woman seemed a little surprised by Mrs. Xu's words and her influence. She was so dazed that she really didn't dare to cry anymore.

"I'll ask you, why are you on the boat?" said Mrs. Xu.

"I, my father has gone far to purchase goods and has not been home for half a year. But I don't know why, my belly is getting bigger and bigger. My mother is afraid that my father will punish me when I come back, so she asked me to come out to hide. I don't know where I go, but when I see the cargo ship, I sneak up and hide in the bottom warehouse. I think where I go when the ship reaches..." The woman held back her tears and choked.

"Don't you know who is in your belly?" Mrs. Xu said bluntly, "How many men have you slept with!"

A burst of laughter suddenly sounded in the crowd.

"I, I haven't slept with someone else... I've never slept with a man!" The woman seemed to be greatly insulted, and her face turned purple.

Mrs. Xu snorted coldly: "Dare to do it but not behave, it will embarrass the woman! Drag it down and chop it down!"

Su Qinghuan pulled her sleeve and said, "Sister, wait a moment, let me show her."

"What?" asked Mrs. Xu curiously, "What are you showing her?"

"I suspect that she is not pregnant, but sick." Su Qinghuan said.

The woman suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at Su Qinghuan, nodding excitedly as if she met a confidant: "Yes, yes, I also think I am sick. My stomach always hurts, but my mother said that her stomach is getting bigger and she said it's not pregnancy, so no one would believe it!"

She cried again with grievance.

"Come on, I'll show you." Su Qinghuan said as she was about to go forward.

The prince grabbed her: "Mom, don't go, I'm afraid there will be a fraud! How can she get on the ship that transports the army's food and grass?"

The woman hurriedly said, "I got in when I didn't know what the boat was for. I stopped by the moat in the capital, and no one cared about it."

"Then what do you make a living these days?" The prince continued to ask relentlessly.

"I bought a lot of dry food in the restaurant. Later, I finished eating the dry food. I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, so I got up in the middle of the night to steal food. The people on the boat thought there were rats, so I didn't care."

"It's okay." Su Qinghuan looked at the woman's face and said to the prince, "She is indeed sick, I believe her words for the time being."

The prince was still worried.

Mrs. Xu seemed to be casually fiddling with Liuye's double swords and snorted coldly: "If she dares to make trouble in front of me, I will chop her hands and feet. Is she moving faster or my Liuye's double swords faster!"

The woman shivered in fear and said stutteringly: "I, I'm not a bad person, really..."

Su Qinghuan walked forward and said in a warm voice: "I am a doctor. I stretch out my hand and I will take your pulse for you."

She had a smile on her face and a nice attitude. The woman looked at her blankly, thinking that she looked like a little fairy in the sky, and unconsciously stretched out her hand.

However, seeing that a layer of black and gray could almost be scraped off her wrist, she was very embarrassed and at a loss.

"Don't move." Su Qinghuan said, "It's okay, I'll take you down to take a shower later. Don't be nervous, relax, I know you're not pregnant."

The woman burst into tears and nodded like garlic: "I'm not pregnant, I'm not pregnant. But my belly..."

Su Qinghuan carefully diagnosed her pulse and sighed, "You have gastrointestinal problems, so you have ascites in your stomach. At first, but later it became more and more serious, and your stomach became bigger and bigger. You are also afraid of medical treatment and your random thoughts will lead to the current results."

Mrs. Xu said in surprise: "She is really not pregnant?"

Su Qinghuan said firmly: "No. There is water in her belly."

Everyone was amazed.

The woman murmured, "I just said, I'm not pregnant. My mother said, maybe Wong Tai Sin turned into a man and sneaked into my room in the middle of the night..."

Su Qinghuan: “…”

"Idiot! You believe this too!" Mrs. Xu cursed, "It's so stupid, living is a waste of food, throwing it into the river to feed the fish."

When she said this, her tone was obviously relaxed and she had more joking elements.

The woman obviously heard it and dared to refute: "How come I know so much? Didn't you just say that I'm pregnant!"

"How do I know whether you are sleeping with a man?" Mrs. Xu cursed, "Don't you know whether you are sleeping with yourself?"

"I, how do I know..." The woman's voice became a little weak.

"Sister," Su Qinghuan interrupted their conversation, "First find a room for her, and I will prescribe some medicine for her first. She often suffers abdominal pain, and it is really not easy for her to survive until now."

"What can you prove your identity?" the prince suddenly interrupted, "Which silk shop is your home in the capital? Which street and alley? Who is your surname? Who is your father?"

The woman answered very smoothly: "My name is Zhou Dahuan, my father's name is Zhou Lizhu, and he runs Zhouji Silk and Satin Shop, and the store is located in the middle of Daliu Shu Hutong. My father has four sons and one daughter, and I am the eldest. When I go to Daliu Shu Hutong to inquire about Dahuan, everyone knows it."

Mrs. Xu burst out laughing and said, "Your father's name is interesting. He stands up. Do he have any brothers who call Zhou squat and Zhou lying down?"

"How do you know the name of my second and third uncles?" Dahuan's eyes widened.

Su Qinghuan: “…”

This place doesn't look like the eldest lady of a satin dealer, she is clearly a fat and round country girl.
