Madam Li smiled hypocritically: "I don't mind, I don't mind. It is a blessing for my Li family that the county lady can stay here."

"Besides, my husband and I have been looking forward to having a grandson for a long time. We are eager for the baby in Weiwei's belly to be born safely."

"The county lady is truly blessed. Weiwei got pregnant the moment you arrived. We can't thank you enough, so why would we mind?"

Su Yujiao also smiled politely: "Thank you very much, Madam Li."

Two days later, Li Rongheng, who had never been seen, finally showed up.

After he came back, he first excitedly hugged Lu Ziwei and spun around, and then he was gentle and considerate, taking care of her in every possible way.

Su Yujiao looked at the polite and upright man in front of her and found it hard to associate him with the scumbag in the original book.

No wonder my aunt trusts him so much. He does have a deceptive face.

Li Rongheng also treated her with great courtesy and politeness.

He even went to the inn in person to kneel down and kowtow to Zhou, apologize, and comforted Zhou, who felt much more at ease.

The next few days were peaceful, and there was no problem with the pregnancy-preserving medicine that Li Rongheng brought every time.

Su Yujiao felt that Li Rongheng was a little slow. If he didn't send her away, when would he dare to take action?

"Jiaojiao, it's been a few days and we haven't found any problems. Are we overthinking it?"

"With me here, naturally no one dares to tamper with the medicine. As for accidents, they can't be too obvious."

"I feel like the person behind me is going to find a way to get rid of me."

"Or, I can find a way to leave by myself and pretend to go back to the capital with my mother, so that those people will dare to take action."

Lu Ziwei thought for a moment and said, "Jiaojiao, you should find a reason to leave. If it's really those servants who want to harm me, they don't have enough status to send you away."

"The only person who can send you away is the head of the family, like my parents-in-law or my brother and his wife."

Su Yujiao nodded: "Okay, I'll leave in a while. Just say it will take a long time and I have children to take care of at home."

Just as the two finished their discussion, Li Rongheng's voice was heard at the door, and Su Yujiao left tactfully.

About half an hour later, Lu Ziwei found Su Yujiao and said a little embarrassedly: "Jiaojiao, I'm afraid you really have to leave now."

"what happened?"

"Your brother-in-law said there's been a serial murder case in town recently. The thieves specifically kill women, raping them first and then killing them."

"Your brother-in-law means that for your and your mother's safety, you should return to Beijing as soon as possible."

Su Yujiao smiled sarcastically: "I was just trying to find an excuse to leave, and now I have a reason. It's such a coincidence that my brother-in-law came."

Lu Ziwei didn't hear the hidden meaning in her words. After all, she would never suspect her husband.

"Yeah, it's quite a coincidence, but you should leave as soon as possible, otherwise I won't be at ease."

"It's okay to put my business aside for now."

Su Yujiao shook her head: "No, this is a rare opportunity. Maybe after I leave, the other party will make a move."

"Since Mo Feng and Mo Ying haven't shown up yet, let them continue to monitor in secret."

"If there's anything unusual, they'll report it to you at any time."

"As for me and my mother, we'll go back first. If you have any news, please send us a message in time."

"And you have to protect yourself too."

Lu Ziwei nodded: "Don't worry, I have Mo Feng and Mo Ying protecting me secretly, so I'm not afraid of thieves hurting me."

"You and mother, however, must be careful on the road."

"Ah."

"Aunt, please tell your parents-in-law. I won't be going over."

"I'll pack my things and leave."

After sending Lu Ziwei away, Su Yujiao called Mo Feng and Mo Ying out, explained some things to them, and then left the Li family.

She knew that someone was following her, so after arriving at the inn, she left in a mighty manner with Zhou and a group of servants.

The Li family followed for three days before returning.

"Mom, you take the others back to the capital, and Mo Feng and I will return to Lin'an County."

When Su Yujiao left the Li Mansion, she only asked Mo Ying to stay to protect Lu Ziwei, while Mo Feng protected them secretly.

After all, the so-called murderer that Li Rongheng mentioned was just a figment of his imagination, so there was no need to leave too many people to protect my aunt.

On the contrary, she needed more protection because of the hassle of traveling back and forth on the road.

Zhou was a little worried: "Jiaojiao, is it possible that someone really wants to harm Weiwei?"

"Why do you go to so much trouble?"

"Mom, we must be on guard against others. We'll know if anyone is trying to harm my aunt if we give it a try."

"There's nothing wrong with my aunt's body, but she keeps having miscarriages for no apparent reason. Someone must be trying to harm her."

"I feel like they'll strike soon."

Zhou's face turned pale, and she looked worried: "What about your aunt?"

"It's okay, my aunt is protected by Mo Ying, nothing will happen to her."

"I'm just afraid that my aunt won't accept the reality after she learns the truth."

Zhou suddenly opened her eyes wide: "Jiaojiao, do you suspect someone?"

"Your father said you have the ability to predict the future, otherwise..." Zhou looked around and tried to lower her voice: "How could you know about the dragon robe in advance?"

"Do you know who is harming Weiwei?"

"You're not here to help Weiwei get pregnant this time, but to save her life. Someone is plotting to kill her?"

Seeing that her mother-in-law had guessed it, Su Yujiao did not hide it anymore. However, she could not say it, so she just nodded.

Zhou was so frightened that her face turned pale. She suddenly grabbed Su Yujiao's hand and said, "Jiaojiao, you must save Weiwei."

"Don't worry, I won't let the bad guys succeed."

After Su Yujiao sent her mother-in-law away, she disguised herself as a quack doctor and returned to Lin'an County.

Without a carriage, she walked for five or six days before reaching Lin'an County.

What she didn't expect was that she received news from Mo Ying as soon as she arrived in Lin'an County.

Li Rongheng has already taken action and added abortion ingredients to Lu Ziwei's pregnancy-maintaining medicine.

"Have you told Miss Six?"

Mo Ying shook his head: "Not yet. I dare not tell Miss Six rashly. After all..."

Su Yujiao snorted coldly: "After all, she trusts Li Rongheng so much, how can she believe that her beloved husband has been harming her all along."

"Go tell my aunt that I want to see her."

That afternoon, Lu Ziwei went to the teahouse: "Jiaojiao, why didn't you leave?"

"I was worried about you, so I disguised myself and stayed. That murderer only targets women, right? I'm a man now."

"Where's mother?"

"Mother has returned to Beijing."

"Mo Ying said you have something to talk to me about?" Lu Ziwei looked curious.

Su Yujiao ordered Mo Ying, "Tell Miss Six what you saw."

"Yes."

"I've noticed that Lord Li will take the medicine bowl from Xiao Huan and personally deliver it to you in the next two days."

"He would quietly add some white powder to the medicine bowl while delivering it, stir it, and then feed it to you personally."

Lu Ziwei’s face turned pale, her body shook violently, and she shouted without thinking: “This is impossible!!”
