Quick Wear: Men Farming and Women Weaving

The next morning, Xing Yuling washed and dressed with the help of her two maids, Yu Shui and Li Xia.

Later, the concubines also came to pay their respects to the mistress. The little girl named Sun stood at the head with a triumphant look, and did not kowtow. She was wearing a pink dress and a golden hairpin with pearl flowers on her head.

She stroked her flat belly proudly and said, "Madam, I haven't had my period for three months. I think I'm pregnant."

Xing Yuling couldn't help but sneer at her as she looked at her. Sun thought she could be so arrogant just because she was pregnant, but she didn't know who the real owner of this house was.

She sat upright on the couch, glanced at Sun sharply, and said slowly, "Sun, I'll call the court doctor over later."

"See if she is really pregnant. If so, take good care of her." Xing Yuling said expressionlessly.

After hearing this, the smile on Sun's face became even brighter. She thought to herself, after the diagnosis is confirmed, she will see how arrogant this wife can still be.

However, Xing Yuling had other plans in mind. She knew that Sun had always been ambitious and wanted to be favored. This pregnancy was probably deliberately designed by Sun. But Xing Yuling didn't care, as she probably was pregnant with Yingchun.

Soon, the court doctor came to Sun's room. After diagnosis, Sun was indeed pregnant. Sun looked at Xing Yuling triumphantly, thinking that she had won.

But Xing Yuling just smiled and said, "Since you are pregnant, you should take better care of your health. I will arrange some servants to take care of your daily life. However, you must also remember your duties and not cause trouble." After that, she turned and left the room, leaving Sun in shock.

After the aunt left, Xing Yuling called Xiaoman and whispered, "Send someone to secretly watch Sun. If there is any unusual movement, report to me immediately."

"And inform the old lady and the master about this happy event."

Xiaoman took the order and left.

Xing Yuling thought that although Sun's pregnancy was confirmed, her ambition had not been eliminated. She must be vigilant at all times to prevent her from causing trouble again. At the same time, she also decided to make good use of this opportunity to see if Madam Wang would take action.

Upon hearing this, Jia She didn't care and asked his wife to make the arrangements, and continued to appreciate the ancient fan in the study.

In the days that followed, Sun became more and more arrogant and domineering, relying on her pregnancy. She often bossed the servants around, and even stopped being respectful to Xing Yuling as before.

A few days later, one morning, Xing Yuling was flipping through the account book in the study when she heard a quarrel outside the door. She frowned and went to the door to check. She saw Caiyun, Sun's personal maid, arguing with a servant.

Xing Yuling shouted sternly, "What are you arguing about! It's so disrespectful to make such a noise in the mansion!" Upon seeing this, Caiyun knelt hurriedly and saluted, crying, "Madam, Sun...she has had her spotting!" Xing Yuling was shocked and asked quickly, "What's going on? Tell me clearly!" Caiyun kowtowed and said in a trembling voice, "After Sun took a bowl of pregnancy-preserving medicine this morning, she began to have unbearable abdominal pain, and then she had her spotting. The mansion doctor is treating her now." Xing Yuling's eyes turned cold, "How did the people around Sun serve her! Why did this happen?" She paused, turned to the housekeeper behind her and said, "You must investigate this matter thoroughly immediately and find out the reason." Then, she hurried to Sun's residence.

Doctor He took the medicine box and went out to the aunt's residence. After a period of rescue, he stopped the bleeding and temporarily saved the fetus.

Xing Yuling looked at the pale-faced Sun and couldn't help feeling a trace of pity in her heart.

"Sun, what's going on?" Xing Yuling asked seriously.

Sun leaned weakly on the bed, tears streaming down her face. "Madam, I don't know either... I took the pregnancy-preserving medicine this morning, and it turned out like this..."

Xing Yuling frowned and turned her gaze to Caiyun. "Who prepared the pregnancy-preserving medicine?"

Caiyun was so scared that she was shaking all over. "Reply...Reply to Madam, this medicine was sent from the kitchen."

Doctor He at the side bowed his head and thought for a moment, "Perhaps... Auntie's body is too fragile to keep the fetus."

Doctor He's heart was beating very fast, and he prayed to God to get through this.

Xing Yuling had strong mental strength and noticed that something was wrong with Doctor He's condition.

Xing Yuling looked at Doctor He sharply, "Are you serious? Are there any other possibilities?"

Doctor He's forehead was covered with cold sweat. "This... is just my preliminary judgment. The specific situation needs to be observed."

Xing Yuling snorted coldly, "No matter what, this matter must be thoroughly investigated! If someone deliberately plots to murder me, I will never tolerate it!"

She turned around and told Caiyun to take good care of Sun, then left with Xiaoman.

Back in the room, Xing Yuling sat on a chair, deep in thought.

"Xiao Man, do you think this is strange?"

Xiaoman nodded. "I also find it strange. The pregnancy-preserving medicine has always been fine. How could it suddenly cause my aunt to have spotting?"

Xing Yuling was silent for a moment, "It seems that someone in the mansion doesn't want Sun to give birth to the child smoothly..."

She already has someone she suspects.

Just as I was thinking about it, a notification came from outside the door.

"Madam, the master is here." Xing Yuling hurriedly stood up to greet her. Jia She walked into the room and asked about Sun's situation with concern. Xing Yuling told Jia She what happened. Jia She frowned and said, "This matter is very serious. We must investigate it thoroughly!" Xing Yuling nodded and said, "I have sent someone to investigate." Jia She looked at Xing Yuling, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. "You did a good job. If we find out who is behind this, we will never let him off easily."

Xing Yuling smiled and said, "Thank you for your trust, Master." After sending Jia She away, Xing Yuling's doubts deepened. She decided to go to the big kitchen to see if she could find any clues. When she arrived at the big kitchen, the chefs were busy preparing meals, and some older maids were washing vegetables and making fire.

After sending everyone away, Xing Yuling took the maid to inspect the kitchen. She found that the stove in the corner where medicine was boiled had been turned upside down. Apparently, someone had come before her. Xing Yuling could not help but feel alert. It seemed that there were many secrets hidden in this mansion...

Xing Yuling looked around, observing every detail carefully. She found some scattered medicinal herbs on the ground, which looked like they were discarded in a hurry.

She bent down to pick up one of the herbs, leaned in to smell it, and a faint bitter smell wafted into her nose.

Xing Yuling's heart moved. She had never seen this kind of herb before, and it would definitely not be used as a medicine to protect the fetus.

She carefully put the herbs in her arms and prepared to take them back to her room to study.

Not far away, beside a stove, a maid was waiting for the pastry chef to prepare the snacks.

Xing Yuling looked closely and found that it was Xiao Cui, Mrs. Wang's personal maid.

She noticed that the maid Xiao Cui was secretly glancing at her.

When Xing Yuling saw this scene, she understood everything.

It turns out that it was really Mrs. Wang who was behind this...
