With his eyes lowered, he mumbled something, found an excuse, and immediately knelt down, "Our Madam sent me to ask the Madam of the eldest young master to come to the house. Aunt Gao said early in the morning that her stomach was not feeling well, and our Madam is worried."
"Have you called a doctor?"
Shuang Yue nodded and answered in panic, "They just said they couldn't protect it."
what?
Qi Yueniang stood up suddenly and said, "She was fine yesterday, how come she can't be saved now?"
Shuangyue shook her head. "I had my period today. I asked a midwife to come in. She said I'm going to have a miscarriage, but the baby is still a little while old!"
Ouch!
With such an urgent matter, Song Guanzhou did not stop Qi Yueniang, "Sister-in-law, go and take a look. I will send a maid to invite the young lady from Doctor Sun's family. Last time, Sister Fanghui got help from Chonglou and Lin'er."
"Okay, okay, Guan Zhou, send someone to invite him. I'll go take a look right away."
The troops split into two groups, Song Guanzhou and Ren Dong went to Shaohua Garden. Ren Dong felt it was unbelievable, "What's going on? I saw Concubine Gao a few days ago. She didn't look pregnant, but she looked healthy."
Song Guanzhou leaned close to Rendong's ear and asked, "Could it be that the wife and concubine are killing each other?"
After listening to this, Ren Dong tilted her head and thought for a moment, then lowered her voice and said, "In the harem, these things are hard to say. It may not be that the Crown Prince's wife is unhappy, but the Crown Prince has had many affairs with former concubines, and Concubine Gao is favored by the Crown Prince, so maybe she has caused others to be jealous."
I am jealous, of course.
There are quite a few girls who take rooms.
But there are only a few who can be concubines, and being a concubine does not mean a life of ease. Let alone other things, just look at Concubine Qiao, who carefully gave birth to a weak girl and then lost favor. From then on, she could only live a mediocre life in the backyard.
Song Guanzhou held his forehead with his hand, "Fortunately, Silang is not as philanthropic as my second brother, otherwise I would not be able to stay for a moment."
Ugh!
Hearing this, Ren Dong walked down two steps of the stone steps first, and then helped Song Guanzhou walk down carefully, "How many men in this world are faithful to one woman? Not to mention the rich, even farmers, when they suddenly have some money, the first thing they do is to eat, drink, gamble and have sex. If there are some who don't like these, they will go to the traffickers and buy a fresh young girl, raise her for two years, and then marry her off."
hiss!
Song Guanzhou took a deep breath, but thought that modern society was no different. It was just that the country protected most groups at the legal level, but if they really wanted to do something secretly, it would be the same.
Of course, these are inevitable in the backyards of the powerful and wealthy under feudal dynasties.
"Please ask Lin'er to come over later. Rendong, you take her over there yourself. Stay with her until she's finished with the treatment, and then send her back to me."
Honeysuckle raised her eyes and said, "Madam, let Dieyi accompany you. I will work with you today."
With Xu Lingbai's best farmhand leaving, Song Guanzhou only has Lonicera junk left. Lonicera junk is smart, and now her calculations are no worse than Xu Lingbai's.
"You are smarter, I feel relieved if you accompany me."
After hearing this, Rendong nodded in agreement. Song Guanzhou admitted that he had read too many novels and seen too much evil in human nature. She was afraid that she had invited Sun Lin with good intentions, but was being used as a trap by someone with ulterior motives.
After returning to Shaohua Garden, Rendong asked Aru, who had just sent Pei An back, to invite her. Aru did not delay and trotted out with a cake in his pocket.
Dieyi and Qingfang just happened to bring in some hot porridge and vegetables from the kitchen. Before they put down the food boxes, Dieyi called out to Song Guanzhou, "Madam, something seems to have happened in the prince's room."
Upon hearing this, Song Guanzhou raised his eyes and smiled, "Are you talking about Aunt Gao?"
Dieyi's eyes widened, "Young Madam actually knew it earlier than us."
After sending Xu Lingqiao off just now, Dieyi and the others returned to Shaohua Garden to work. Now coming up from the kitchen, they heard something warm.
"Madam, Sister Dong, there is a needle hidden in Aunt Gao's embroidered shoes."
"Please tell me."
Rendong called Dieyi, and the two of them placed the porridge and dishes on the kang table in the inner room. "It has been snowing for the past two days, and the outside of the house is frozen. Concubine Gao is pregnant now, and she dare not go out casually, for fear that she will fall like Concubine Qiao, and give birth to the girl prematurely."
"Let's talk about the embroidery needle."
Dieyi stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously, "Yes, I can't find anything important to say. I still don't know who put the embroidery needle there, but it certainly wasn't done by Aunt Gao. She heard that the prince was coming today, so she changed into a new pair of shoes. As soon as she stepped down the stairs, the embroidery needle pierced her foot. The pain... made her roll down the stairs."
Song Guanzhou: ...Why are all the people in Pei Chen's backyard using all their strength?
The only thing it does is make people wrestle.
Can't there be something new?
Dieyi smiled and said, "Madam, look at what you said. The tricks are not new. What's more, if you make the person fall down without anyone noticing, no one will be able to catch the murderer. It's killing two birds with one stone."
That's true!
"But now the embroidery needle has been exposed, hasn't it?"
Song Guanzhou asked further, and Ren Dong's face was full of regret. "Young Madam, every ordinary woman has a sewing basket. Even people like me, Zhuang Gu, and Meng Sao like to put sewing needles and threads in their handkerchiefs. If they encounter something unexpected and their clothes are torn, they can still mend them."
After saying that, she took out an embroidery needle with thread from her waist and showed it to Song Guanzhou.
Song Guanzhou took the thin embroidery needle and looked up at the two of them. "This kind of thing, hidden in shoes and socks, must have been done by someone close to him. If you interrogate them carefully, you will definitely find something."
Dieyi shook her head. "I heard that the prince's wife had already interrogated him and sent someone to invite the prince to come. I'm afraid that the embroidery needle was placed there by the aunt herself."
"How is that possible?"
Song Guanzhou immediately retorted, "She is so careful, but she would deliberately do something bad. Does she not want this child?"
Dieyi shook her head, "That's not the case. I heard that the shoes were not finished yet, and the soles were missing two stitches. Xia He was not here today, and Aunt Gao forgot about it, so she just put them on. At first, she just felt that they were a little uncomfortable, and when she went down the stairs, her feet were unstable, and the embroidery needle broke through the soles, and pierced Aunt Gao's soles."
Gee!
That must have been excruciatingly painful—
Song Guanzhou shook his head when he heard this. Honeysuckle placed the dishes and chopsticks beside him and also felt very sad. "Madam Gao's pregnancy was not safe. When she first found out, she was bleeding. Now, she has only been pregnant for a few months and she fell down during labor. She is still young, but she is not as lucky as Madam Qiao. The remaining girl can still survive."
There was a lot of noise in the prince's room.
Only Shaohuayuan was quiet and peaceful. Aru left quickly and came back even faster, but he brought not only Sun Lin, but also Qin Qingdong and Chun Ge.
"Guan Zhou, has Brother Ling Bai set off?"
Song Guanzhou, who had just finished his porridge and was standing outside the room pacing to digest his food, heard Qin Qingdong yelling and sent someone to invite him in. "He left early in the morning. You're in such a hurry. Are you here to see him off?"
