Lu Zhenzhen sneered: "You're just trying to fool others with this! The matter of my sister-in-law being poisoned hasn't been clarified yet! There's no room for error. Are you unsure whether the baby in my sister-in-law's belly is a boy or a girl, so you've been dragging it out like this?"

Fu Zhiyi rubbed Lu Zhenzhen's ears and said, "Our Zhenzhen is really smart. She can see that."

After saying this, he sneered, "Grandfather is high above us, taking in the overall situation, and he has his own considerations in mind! For so many years, whether it's the eldest master or our generation, haven't we all been considered in this way?"

"Don't worry, if the eldest sister-in-law gives birth to a boy, the third brother's life will be really difficult! By then, even the eldest master won't be able to protect him."

In the Ningping Marquis' Mansion, since they are the old marquis's sons and grandsons, they are also pawns.

This is something Fu Zhiyi realized very early on.

Although he was alive before, he did not feel the love of life, nor did he feel the sorrow of death.

I am only alive because of my mother's bond.

Naturally, he doesn't mind being a grandson or a chess piece.

It's just a boring life with no hope.

But since Zhenzhen came into his life, there was a different color and a different voice in his life, which gave him expectations and fostered his ambitions.

He wanted to live a happy life with Zhenzhen without being controlled by anyone.

He wants to be the person who plays chess, not the chess pieces in the hands of others!

At this moment, Fu Zhiyi was extremely certain of his ambitions and desires!

Lu Zhenzhen silently squeezed Fu Zhiyi's hand to convey her comfort.

Fu Zhiyi smiled slightly, collected his thoughts, and held Lu Zhenzhen's hand tightly.

When I returned to Tingtaoju, the hot water had indeed been delivered.

The couple was tired after a day of work. After washing up, they climbed into bed and fell into a deep sleep.

And Liu Sisi was helped up again, "Miss, it's time to take your medicine."

Liu Sisi was completely dazed. When she heard that she needed to take medicine, she opened her mouth reflexively and a bowl of medicine at the right temperature was fed to her smoothly.

After the medicine entered her stomach, Liu Sisi seemed to feel even more dizzy.

I wanted to say something, but I couldn't open my eyelids. I couldn't fight off the sleepiness and fell into darkness again.

Xiaoyu, who was standing by, supported Liu Sisi. Seeing her drowsy appearance, she couldn't help but worry, "Why did the girl fall asleep again?"

It was Nanny Qian who fed her the medicine. She carefully wiped the remaining medicine stains from the corners of Liu Sisi's mouth with a handkerchief before speaking, "The doctor said that the medicine contains a sleeping aid that will help the young lady sleep more soundly! Otherwise, with the young lady's physique, what would she do if she woke up in the middle of the night after enduring such an ordeal?"

Xiaoyu thought so.

He helped Liu Sisi lie down, his eyes red: "Poor girl, she has suffered so much!"

Madam Qian quickly stopped Xiaoyu: "What are you talking about? It's a good thing that the young lady saved Lun'er, but you are making it look like a bad thing! Don't mention it again in the future."

Xiaoyu quickly covered her mouth and said, "I know I was wrong. Madam, please forgive me this time."

Nanny Qian then stood up and picked up the medicine bowl: "Alright, you stay with the girl and be alert at night, in case she gets a fever in the middle of the night."

Xiaoyu answered yes, squatted beside the bed, and looked at Liu Sisi without blinking.

Nanny Qian left the room. Zhao was still waiting outside. When she saw her come out, she looked at the medicine bowl in her hand and asked only one question: "Cousin, have you taken the medicine?"

Nanny Qian nodded.

Zhao gave a short laugh before speaking, "In that case, Madam, go get some rest! There's more trouble tomorrow!"

After saying that, he turned around and went straight back to the house.

Nanny Qian lowered her head and waited until Zhao returned to the house before she took the medicine bowl to the corridor, picked up the medicine pot and bowl together and went to clean up.

The little girl next to her wanted to show her courtesy and hurried forward to take it.

Madam Qian quickly dodged the little girl's hand and said, "I really don't need your help. This is medicine for the young lady. You haven't even grown all your hair yet. Be careful not to spill it by being so clumsy! I'd better do it myself."

After saying this, he refused the help of the little girl and others, and walked out of Lanyue Courtyard with the medicine jar.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Mammy, where are you going with the medicine jar?"

Without even turning her head, Madam Qian said, "I'll take the medicine jars and bowls back to the kitchen and have them cleaned. We'll need them tomorrow. I'll also ask them to bring some easy-to-digest snacks to Miss Liu tomorrow. She finds medicine too bitter, so she needs something sweet to sweeten her mouth."

After saying that, he left.

After Madam Qian had gone far away, a few little girls gathered together and murmured, "Bah, she was so harsh to the cousin before, but now that she saved my brother, she immediately changed her attitude——"

"Be quiet, or someone might hear you!"

……

Of course, Nanny Qian didn't hear these words.

She left Lanyue Courtyard and headed straight for the big kitchen.

On the way, I passed a dark place, stopped and listened carefully to the sounds of birds.

Then he whispered, "The medicine has been given. Here are the dregs and the jar used to boil the medicine. I brought them out."

In the dark, a voice said, "Well done. No one is suspicious, right?"

Aunt Qian quickly shook her head: "No, her girl asked, and I said the doctor prescribed a sleeping pill."

The voice praised, "Excellent! Leave the medicine jars to me. Just take these to the kitchen and give them to the staff."

As she spoke, she handed out a medicine jar and a medicine bowl that were exactly the same as the ones in Nanny Qian's hand from the dark. There was even some residual medicine juice inside.

Nanny Qian took the other person's medicine jar and bowl and handed over her own.

The two exchanged quickly and secretly.

Then Nanny Qian continued to walk towards the kitchen with her things in her hand, as if nothing had happened.

The figure in the darkness watched as Nanny Qian's figure disappeared, then hurriedly disappeared into the night.

Then not long after, the figure appeared in front of the old marquis.

It was Fu Shan.

The old marquis looked calm, lit a lamp, and was playing chess with himself.

Seeing Fu Shan come in, he didn't even raise his head and just asked, "Is it done?"

Fu Shan nodded: "It's done, the medicine has been administered."

The old marquis smiled softly and casually scattered the chess pieces on the table. "That's great! You dare to attack the descendants of my mansion, you deserve death! If I didn't want to lure out the person behind her, I would definitely not let her live."

Fu Shan said calmly, "She took the most potent sterilizing soup, and there will be no future for her in this life."

The old marquis raised an eyebrow. "Why? Are you dissatisfied with me for letting her take the sterilizing soup? Or do you think I'm too cold and heartless?"

Fu Shan quickly knelt down and apologized, "I never intended that! This Liu family girl has a mysterious background, and she attacked the heir and master of the Marquisate. She deserves death! But why did you give her a sterilizing soup instead of some other poison?"

The old marquis stood up slowly. "Haven't you figured it out yet? This woman is trying to seduce Ming Ge'er! It seems her target now is Ming Ge'er. If she seduces Ming Ge'er like this, and if Ming Ge'er is not careful and gets this woman pregnant, it will be too late."

"So, we'll cut off this woman's extravagant hopes right at the source! No matter what ambitions she has, a woman who can't bear children and whose body has been completely ruined can't make any waves—"
