Jiang was afraid that her daughter would be in danger, and she was even more worried that Aunt Ye was very scheming. If she caught her with any evidence, she would never have peace.

Ye Yunzi patted Jiang's hand and said softly, "Mother, I know what's going on. I'll just go and take a look. Nothing will happen."

"Okay, I'll be back soon."

……

Ye Yunzi took her personal maid Zhilan to the Shen Mansion. Zhilan was good at martial arts and could protect her if anything unexpected happened.

Before leaving, she coldly told Zhilan to stay away from Jiaojiao as much as possible, and even if she had any instructions, she should let others do it.

Especially never touch her belly.

Ye Yunzi still has a scar in her heart about the things that happened in her previous life, especially the time when Jiaojiao falsely accused her of wanting to harm the baby in her belly, which made her bear the blame for jealousy. She came back this time to get her dowry back.

"Jiaojiao, you will never succeed again in this life!"

As soon as she entered the Shen residence, Ye Yunzi found that the small courtyard was very lively, with maids crowded around, and the scene was comparable to that of the old lady's courtyard. Obviously, Shen Yuming really cared about Jiaojiao and took care of her meticulously.

"Hello, madam."

"Madam!" When the servants saw Ye Yunzi, they all bowed and greeted her.

"Ye Yunzi, what are you doing here?" Hong Yun's voice came from inside the house. She was standing by the door frame, her eyes wide open, looking unwelcome.

Ye Yunzi smiled slightly and replied, "I heard that Jiaojiao was not feeling well, so I came to see her."

Hong Yun's face was not looking good, and she secretly clenched her teeth. Every time she saw Ye Yunzi, she would think of the day when Ye Yunzi stole the limelight and overshadowed the stunning dance she had carefully prepared.

This resentment kept piling up, to the point where every time he met Ye Yunzi, he felt like there was a stone blocking his heart.

Although he was unhappy, Hong Yun was not stupid. After thinking about it, he felt there was no reason to stop Ye Yunzi, so he stepped aside to make way.

Ye Yunzi walked into the room and saw Jiaojiao lying on the bed, Shen Yuming holding her hand gently.

"Jiaojiao, how do you feel?"

"I still feel uncomfortable. My chest feels stuffy, as if there's a big rock pressing on it." Jiaojiao's voice was weak and intermittent. Her sickly appearance made Shen Yuming feel distressed.

"Jiaojiao, you will get better. Don't worry. I will ask famous doctors in Beijing to treat you!"

"Thank you, Second Master. I'm fine. I'm just... worried about the baby in my belly... Nothing must happen to the baby." Jiaojiao forced a smile, showing her concern for the baby. Shen Yuming frowned after hearing this. This hit his soft spot. No matter what, the baby must not be in any danger!

Shen Yuming turned his head and snorted, "Where is that Feng Shui master?"

"The master has gone to check the mansion. He will come back naturally after he is done." A young Taoist priest-like man answered.

Ye Yunzi noticed that when the Feng Shui master was mentioned, a strange look flashed across Jiaojiao's eyes.

as predicted.

Ye Yunzi took a step forward and said, "Husband, Jiaojiao."

Shen Yuming heard Ye Yunzi's voice, turned around, and saw that it was her, his expression softened a lot. After all, Ye Yunzi, who was able to obtain the Seventh Prince's jade pendant, was of a status that could not be underestimated.

“It turned out to be Yunzi!”

"I came to visit Jiaojiao. I heard that she was not feeling well, so I brought a hundred-year-old ginseng and the best Atractylodes macrocephala for pregnancy protection." Ye Yunzi's tone was sincere and her eyes were clear. On the surface, there was nothing wrong with her. In the eyes of everyone, they all felt that she was full of kindness towards Jiaojiao.

"Yeah." Shen Yuming nodded with satisfaction. He found that Ye Yunzi was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye. Not only was she talented, but she was also broad-minded.

I thought Jiaojiao's pregnancy would make Ye Yunzi unhappy, but I didn't expect that she would come to visit Jiaojiao so openly today.

"It's nothing serious. You will recover soon. It's enough that you have this heart."

Ye Yunzi gently lowered her eyelids to hide the cold light in her eyes.

On the bed, Jiaojiao secretly clenched her fists, noticing that Shen Yuming's attitude seemed to have changed, and his tone became much gentler when he spoke to Ye Yunzi.

This won’t do. We have to find a way to stop it.

There was a glimmer of gloom in her eyes.

At this time, Ye Yunzi waved her hand, motioning Zhilan to hand over the box in her hand, and said, "I have consulted some medical books, and I am not sure whether these herbs can be used casually. Fortunately, there is a doctor here today, so let him help identify whether there are any problems with these herbs."

Ye Yunzi smiled slightly and spoke sincerely.

Jiaojiao's pupils suddenly shrank, as if her plan had been exposed.

The doctor took the box, carefully examined the ginseng and white atractylodes inside, felt the texture, and smelled the scent. Finally, he nodded approvingly: "These are top-grade medicinal materials! Even in the big pharmacies in the capital, it is difficult to find such good things. They are very suitable for maintaining pregnancy! Madam, you can use them with confidence."

With the doctor's approval, things became more certain.

There was something deep in Ye Yunzi's smile. She knew Jiaojiao's methods too well. If she sent the herbs today, Jiaojiao might use it to frame her tomorrow. It would be better to tell the truth now, so that Jiaojiao would not be able to find faults.

"Yunzi is really thoughtful."

Shen Yuming said, with an even gentler expression on his face. He felt that Ye Yunzi was both sensible and generous, and she truly cared about Jiaojiao.

"The most important thing is that Jiaojiao can give birth to the baby safely. I'm also very curious about what my brother will look like..." Ye Yunzi said with a slight smile.

There was something else in her words, and it was directed at Jiaojiao.

Shen Yuming raised his eyebrows: "It will definitely be like me. If you have an eldest son in the future, you will have someone to rely on. When you get married, he will be able to help you when he grows up."

There was silence in the room, and Jiaojiao's expression changed slightly.

Just then, a man with a long beard and looking quite mysterious walked in. He must be the Feng Shui master.

Ye Yunzi stepped aside and observed the Feng Shui master silently.

"Second Young Master, I have already inspected the entire courtyard of the Shen Mansion..."

"How is it?" Shen Yuming asked impatiently.

The Feng Shui master stroked his beard, frowned, and said with a heavy face: "This..."

Shen Yuming saw this and knew something was wrong, so he asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Just tell me directly."

Ye Yunzi stared at the Feng Shui master. She felt like she had seen him somewhere before. The face looked strangely familiar.

She stood aside, her eyes fixed on this "master". He was wearing a Taoist robe and his eyes seemed shrewd, but a closer look revealed a bit of cunning, especially the beard, which looked awkward no matter how you looked at it, as if it was glued on!

Ye Yunzi had a plan in mind, she squinted her eyes slightly, and said nothing more. She wanted to see what Jiaojiao was going to do this time!

The Feng Shui master cleared his throat and asked, "Madam, do you often feel dizzy and weak, dream of demons and ghosts at night, and have trouble sleeping peacefully?"
