151 Two Years of Pregnancy Without Giving Birth
Jiang Shan burst out laughing. “Zhao Ruifeng was the opposite of the crown prince? Those who didn’t know would think that God didn’t like Zhao Ruifeng.” When the crown prince was born, a rainbow ran through the entire palace, while Zhao Ruifeng had three days of heavy rain. When the crown prince was born, hundreds of birds sang, while Zhao Ruifeng’s roof was covered in bird poop. When the crown prince was born, the city was fragrant, and when Zhao Ruifeng was born, the city was extremely ugly. How unpleasant was Zhao Ruifeng to the eye?
They could not help but laugh when they thought of Zhao Ruifeng’s birth. Even Jiang Xi could not help but laugh. How could Zhao Ruifeng have lived to such an age even though he was so unlucky? Jiang Shan asked as soon as Jiang Xi thought of this.
“Speaking of strange auras, although General Zhao is unlucky, no matter how unlucky he is, he will not die. It is as if the heavens are deliberately torturing him, torturing him to death but not letting him die.” Lu Liu continued from behind, “Everyone says that this is like a father-in-law who sees his son-in-law as an eyesore. No matter how he looks at his son-in-law, he can’t stand it. That’s why he’s using different ways to torture him. When my sister was getting married, my father made things difficult for my future brother-in-law just like that. No matter what my future brother-in-law did, he would always find fault with him and give him a good scolding.” At that time, she had not been sold as a slave, so she knew what had happened at home. Later on, life at home became more and more difficult, so her parents sold her. Lu Liu knew that they had no choice. If they did not sell her, the whole family would die.
When they heard Lu Liu’s metaphor, they laughed like crazy. However, everyone was just saying it casually and no one took it seriously.
“However, no matter how unlucky General Zhao is, he has already married a wife. It can be seen that the heavens have been merciful to him.” Hong Shan said with a smile. He was relieved to see that Jiang Xi was not angry.
If God could open his mouth to refute, he would definitely say, “Bullsh*t! What mercy?” God just could not bear to let his daughter become a widow!
Jiang Xi pursed her lips. She really wanted to know how Zhao Ruifeng had grown up. It was probably another history of blood and tears. However, when she was born in her previous life, she was also different. Her mother was pregnant with her for two years but did not give birth. At that time, people around her said that her mother was pregnant with a monster. At that time, the family’s conditions were not good, and people around her kept gossiping, so her mother simply went back to the countryside with a big belly for peace and quiet.
The conditions in her hometown were not good, but the strange thing was that every day when her mother got up, she would find colorful pheasants, peacocks, and even all kinds of birds and fish outside her door. She did not know how they came here, but they all died in front of her door. Moreover, these dead animals all had one thing in common, and that was that they were good-looking and fat! These gave her mother some nutrition. She heard that some villagers went to the toilet at night, and when they passed by her house, they said that they saw birds lining up to fly over and hit their heads in front of her house. When they hit their heads, they even looked proud. It was a horrifying scene.
On the day Jiang Xi was born, the birds in the mountains chirped all night. The next day, the front door of her house was filled with the corpses of beasts and birds. Her family could not finish them. The villagers were so scared that they knelt down and called for the mountain god to calm down. They called out to the mountain god for two days before they got up. Then, she and her mother were driven out by the villagers, who said that Jiang Xi’s birth would bring disaster to their village and asked them to get lost. After Jiang Xi and her mother left, a mudslide broke out on the mountain and buried the village. It was probably the revenge on the villagers for driving her away.
After Jiang Xi and the others came out of the Yin Yang Tower, Zhao Ruifeng also finished the court session. He packed up the signature dishes of all the major restaurants and brought them all back to the Jiang residence. His father, Zhao Hongwei, had been quiet for the past few days. It seemed that his new mistress was pregnant and could not leave him. Zhao Hongwei seemed to have been controlled by a woman this time. He did not pay much attention to the women who had married him in the past.
“This is your favorite cloud brocade chicken. That restaurant only sells three servings a day. My father is also lining up to buy it.” Zhao Ruifeng picked up a chicken leg and put it in Jiang Xi’s bowl. The chicken leg was shiny, and it looked very appetizing. The cloud brocade chicken was fresh and tender, and it tasted very good. Unfortunately, only three were sold every day, so many people could not get their hands on them even if they wanted to.
“Oh, really? Did your father manage to buy it?” Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment as she held the chicken leg in his hand. Then, she took a bite. The chicken was tender, juicy, and delicious! Indeed, eating meat was the happiest! Although she had also eaten a lot of meat in the Happy Village, the way the village cooked it was incomparable to the way it was cooked in Jing City.
