After all, this was the Qi family's home. No matter how angry Huan Jie'er was, she had to hold it in. She asked again, "Why is she here again for no reason? Didn't she get scolded by the county lady last time? Why is she here again? Isn't she ashamed?"

Nanny Guo said, "No matter how much trouble there is, we are still a family. If the county lady doesn't consider it for her sake, she will consider it for the sake of the eldest young master and the two brothers. It won't be a big deal. Hey, where's my sister?"

The two talked for a while, and when they turned around, they found that Sister Fan had disappeared.

On the other side, Gao was sitting leisurely in the yard. She sent her maid to inquire and found out that Banqing was still lying quietly in the room to take care of her pregnancy, and was being guarded by several maids and maids.

She wouldn't be stupid enough to openly go and cause trouble with Ban Qing. That would be too cheap and not what a mistress should do. She sat for a while and then left.

The reason she came here in person was to make sure that there was really no one else at the Qi family so that she could take action.

Sitting in the carriage, she instructed a maid in her courtyard, who had also served Ban Qing, "Go and give her this box of snacks. Do you know what to say?"

The old woman said, "This box of snacks was bought specially by the master. They are Miss Banqing's favorite."

"Wait until I'm far away before you go. You have to see her eat it with your own eyes."

"Yes."

The old woman waited for about half an incense stick of time, then entered Qi's house and went straight to Banqing's room.

At this time, Ban Qing was sitting on the bed. Seeing the old woman coming, he recognized her and asked hurriedly, "Is it the Madam who is here?"

The woman said, "I came once, but when I saw no one was in the house, I went back. This time, the master asked me to come. He said the young lady likes to eat steamed cheese with sugar, so he asked me to deliver it."

"Does the lady know?"

"Madam, it's not necessary for you to personally inquire about such a trivial matter."

When Ban Qing heard that it was Qi Molou who sent it, she was happy but confused. In the past, Qi Molou had delivered it personally, so why did he let a maid deliver it this time?

The old woman saw through her thoughts at a glance, "Miss, are you afraid that I will poison you? After all, I have served you before. This is what the master bought for you. It is the cleanest and your favorite. Originally, the master wanted to deliver it himself, but the two brothers insisted that they wanted to go hunting. The master was too busy, so he asked me to deliver it. Madam doesn't know about it yet."

After hearing this, Ban Qing's worries disappeared and he took a piece of steamed cheese and started eating.

Seeing this, the old woman left with satisfaction.

As soon as the old woman left, Sister Fan came.

Ban Qing asked her to sit next to the bed. Seeing her looking at the box of snacks, he smiled and asked her to eat. "Sister, do you like to eat yogurt, too?"

She nodded, "Yes, but my mother and my aunt and grandmother won't let me eat too much, saying it will damage my teeth."

"Then just eat a few pieces, don't eat too much."

"it is good."

Ban Qing ate half a piece and stopped eating. He just watched Sister Fan eat.

Fan Jie'er had just eaten two pieces when Nanny Guo came. Fearing that she would disturb Ban Qing's rest, she took Fan Jie'er away.

When the Lady of Huiyang County returned, she heard the maid say that Banqing had a stomachache and Fanjie was vomiting and having diarrhea.

The Lady of Huiyang County was extremely worried and immediately called a doctor. After examining the baby, both adult and child, the doctor said that the baby had eaten something by mistake and that it had affected the fetus in her belly. Fortunately, the baby had not eaten much and was already quite a month old, so the impact was not serious.

Since Fan Jie'er is a child, she can excrete whatever she eats and then take some medicine, so there will be no problem.

After asking the servants and finding out that Gao had been there and that Banqing and Fan Jie'er had both eaten the steamed cheese with sugar brought by Gao's maid, the Lady of Huiyang laughed angrily.

Her daughter-in-law was really smart. She knew how to use Qi Molou's name to attack Ban Qing.

She asked the doctor to check the steamed cheese with sugar, and the doctor said that it was mixed with very cold ingredients, which were not good for pregnant women. If the amount used reached a certain level, it would cause miscarriage.

At this time, Qi Motai came back. After learning the whole story, he was shocked and said, "How could my sister-in-law... Sister Banqing is so pregnant. If she really had a miscarriage, I'm afraid it's..."

Lady Huiyang: "What she wants is to perish with both mother and son. She is smart, she even sent it in the name of your elder brother, and sent Banqing's favorite cheese. This good daughter-in-law of mine is really vicious, she is deliberately trying to kill Banqing. I thought she would just make a fuss, but I never thought..."

Gao gave birth to two sons for the Qi family, and she came from a prominent family and had the support of her natal family.

The last time Huiyang County Lady said she wanted to divorce Gao, it was just a scare. For various reasons, she would not divorce her unless it was absolutely necessary.

After all, no matter how vicious Gao was, she was only targeting Banqing, a concubine, and did not affect the entire Qi family. So even if she hated Gao, she would not divorce her for the sake of the Qi family's reputation and her two grandchildren.

She had no choice but to have the remaining steamed cheese sent to Gao's parents' home, and told them about Banqing and Fan Jie'er asking for a doctor.

Qi Motai said angrily: "Mom, are we just going to let this go?"

She said, "Of course not. I will punish her. But when the child is born, it cannot be born under your eldest brother's name. She is not a tolerant person."

"Then keep it in my name."

"Can……"

It was unknown what the Lady of Huiyang County was hesitating about. Seeing that Yu Muyan was about to leave the Earl's Mansion, and Qi Motai was so concerned about Yu Muyan.

She was not a rigid person and she knew that Qi Motai had not been happy over the years, so she naturally hoped that her son could get what he wished for.

She was just worried that if they really were to be together, it would attract a lot of criticism, whether from Qi Motai or Yu Muyan.

The night outside the suburbs of Beijing was extremely dark, with a cold wind howling past, and there was not a single house within a hundred miles.

There was a small bonfire on the flat, open ground, and a carriage parked next to it.

After a whole day of traveling, Lu Yuxuan's face was covered with fatigue. According to the plan, he was going to escape to the fiefdom of King Jingcheng. However, just now, he received a letter by carrier pigeon saying that Xiao Qianluo was actually captured by Yu Muyan.

When he heard the news, he was confused and questioned for a long time.

He couldn't believe that Xiao Qianluo was discovered, and by Yu Muyan. How could this be possible?

In his opinion, Yu Muyan was always weak and incompetent. She escaped his pursuit several times purely by luck and had no real strength at all.

Now telling him that Xiao Qianluo was captured by Yu Muyan was really beyond his expectation.

Now, he was in a dilemma. He knew Yu Muyan's intention, which was to force him to show up! Now he had no weaknesses, except Xiao Qianluo.

If he didn't go back, Xiao Qianluo's life would be in danger.

But once he goes back, he will be in great danger.

He was in a dilemma whether to reply or not.

"Luo'er..." He held his head with both hands in annoyance, feeling extremely conflicted.
