Li Lianhua didn't expect to get away so easily, and he also received an unexpected surprise, so he bowed and thanked him quickly.

"It's getting late, you should go back and rest first."

After sending Li Lianhua away, Aunt Qiao pretended to be worried and asked, "Madam, you asked Doctor Pang to come here in the middle of the night. Are you feeling unwell?"

Li had wanted to ask this question, and now that Aunt Qiao had asked it, she followed suit and asked, "Yes, we were all terrified when we learned that General Lu had brought Doctor Pang with him!"

"It's nothing. I just told my grandmother this afternoon that my leg was hurting a lot. My uncle was too nervous, so I asked Doctor Pang to come and take a look."

No one present believed Bai Youyou's words.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, married girls will return to their parents’ home.

If it was true as she said, then why didn't the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion ask Imperial Doctor Pang to come for a home consultation in the afternoon, but instead came at this time?

Aunt Qiao didn't expect that Doctor Pang was going to examine Bai Youyou. Upon hearing that, her hand holding the handkerchief suddenly tightened.

"What did Doctor Pang say? Is the Fourth Miss's injury serious?"

Bai Youyou was still skeptical of Aunt Li's words and deliberately tested Aunt Qiao.

Seeing her reaction now, Bai Youyou was sure that what Li Lianhua said was not false.

Bai Youyou raised an eyebrow, "Aunt Qiao is worried, Doctor Pang said that I am in good health and have no illness or disaster."

Aunt Qiao's eyes flickered, and she curled her lips, "That's good."

Bai Qingyu and Li also looked at Aunt Qiao, somewhat puzzled as to why she was suddenly so enthusiastic.

Mrs. Lu couldn't hold it in anymore and glared at Aunt Qiao angrily, "She is pretending to be sympathetic, but I don't know what evil thoughts she has in mind to harm others."

"Jiaojiao heard that you were sick and asked the imperial physician to come and see you out of kindness. What are you talking about?"

Bai Yanlang's words made Lu's anger, which was already almost uncontrollable, surge to the top of her head. Without saying a word, she stepped forward and slapped Aunt Qiao in the face.

"Who wants her kindness? A weasel is paying New Year's greetings to a chicken. You know exactly what she is thinking!"

Aunt Qiao's face was hit to the side, her body tilted and she fell on Bai Yanlang.

"Okay, why are you crazy?!"

Bai Yanlang hugged Aunt Qiao, whose eyes were red and who looked aggrieved, and glared at Lu and shouted harshly.

"She wanted to harm my daughter, so a slap in the face is the least of her worries!"

Mrs. Lu pointed at Aunt Qiao, furious.

There is no evidence now. If there was evidence, she would just take a knife and poke eighteen holes in Aunt Qiao's body.

"What's the harm to your daughter? What nonsense are you talking about!"

Except for Aunt Qiao, Bai Yanlang and Bai Qingyu and his wife were all shocked.

Bai Qingyu frowned and asked, "Second sister-in-law, you said Aunt Qiao harmed Youyou, do you have any evidence for this?"

"If there was evidence, would she still be standing here?" Mrs. Lu snorted coldly, "Fortunately my son is fine, otherwise I would have cut her into pieces!"

"Madam, I know you don't like me, but I would never dare to do anything to harm others."

Aunt Qiao nestled in Bai Yanlang's arms, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, but her eyes hidden by her long eyelashes were full of ridicule.

Everyone said that Doctor Pang was a superb medical skill, but now she felt that he was just seeking fame and reputation.

"You don't dare?" Lu sneered, "Why don't you dare? If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. Do you think that no one knows that you asked that slut by your side to put drugs in my son's food? I tell you, when I find evidence, I will tear you apart!"

Mrs. Lu was angry, and the words in her heart poured out like beans.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead.

No wonder her uncle had repeatedly told her not to tell anyone about Old Mrs. Qiao tampering with the medicine that Marquis Yongning took. She was letting the cat out of the bag.

"What drug?"

Bai Yanlang's brows were twisted into knots. "Stop talking nonsense. Doctor Pang has examined the patient and said there is nothing wrong. Why are you accusing someone without any evidence?"

Just as Mrs. Lu was about to say that it was Aunt Li who came to inform on her, Bai Youyou quickly pulled her back.

She has nothing wrong with her now, and there is no evidence to support her. Whatever she says will be considered a false accusation.

Aunt Li is a witness, and she cannot give it up before the matter is investigated thoroughly, so as to avoid ending up like Aunt Zhang.

Bai Youyou said apologetically, "My mother just heard a few words from the servants and got a little nervous. Please don't blame me, Aunt Qiao."

"I don't dare."

It’s not that I don’t blame you, it’s that I dare not blame you.

Aunt Qiao covered her face with her hands, her expression full of grievance, but she became alert in her heart.

I didn't expect that idiot Chun Liu couldn't even do such a small thing. I wanted to keep her for a few more days, but now it seems that I can't keep her!

Lu Zhenguo just heard what Lu said in the yard and suddenly felt a headache.

If he didn't give any instructions for a while, the sister would lose control of herself.

Lu Zhenguo lifted the curtain and strode in, scanning everyone's faces with his eagle eyes, "What are you all doing here in the middle of the night? Go back and get some rest."

"Since there's nothing else to do, let's go back first."

Bai Qingyu looked somewhat displeased by such words that took the place of the host. He nodded slightly to Lu Zhenguo, then left together with Li.

On the way, Bai Qingyu's smile deepened, "The second room is getting more and more chaotic."

Li followed him closely, also smiling, "You can only fish in troubled waters."

"It's a pity." Bai Qingyu felt very sorry. "Mrs. Qiao's poison failed. Now that Lu has opened a small kitchen, it will be difficult to take action again."

"Lu doesn't have much money on hand. I'll delay the payment of the monthly allowance next month, and her small kitchen won't be open for a few days."

Li smiled, "The hatred of killing a son is irreconcilable. As long as Aunt Qiao is not dead, the Second House will never have peace, unless - Lu takes the two children and returns home."

"The Lu family cannot divorce yet. We have to find a way to force the people in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to take action against the third brother. By then, they will have no one to rely on, and then we can deal with them!"

Bai Qingyu was planning everything step by step in his mind.

The third son was good at studying and when he was eighteen, he was chosen by the emperor to become the third place in the imperial examination.

Later, he was appreciated by Prince Rong and married Prince Rong's concubine's daughter. Now he is the prefect of Qingzhou. I heard that he has made good achievements in the past two years.

With the help of such a powerful outsider, it is estimated that he will be able to be transferred back to the capital in two years at most and be promoted to a higher rank.

Bai Qingyu looked up at the moon and sighed, "He failed that time. Otherwise, even if he had great talent, he would have no place to use it."

Li thought of that incident and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. "Old Qiao treated him like his own apple. He sent people to protect him wherever he went. It was normal for him to fail."

"Pity."

Bai Qingyu let out a long breath.

The third son married Prince Rong's concubine's daughter, and after that he dared not act rashly again.

I had originally intended to create some trouble for the second son and have the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion stir up trouble, but who knew that Mrs. Lu was so bold that she didn't even go back to complain when her husband favored his concubine over his wife.

If Bai Youyou hadn't suddenly changed her personality, he really wouldn't have been able to stir up trouble in the second house.
