Madam Wei didn't dare to say a word and could only listen to her scolding.
At this time, Lin Yiwan and Sang Qiutang had already entered the Xiao Mansion and saw Meng Yunshang lying on the bed with a slightly pale face.
Madam Xiao was beside her, her brows furrowed tightly.
Seeing Lin Yiwan, she felt like she had found a lifeline. She immediately stood up and said, "Wanwan, you're here! Come and check on Yunshang. Why are you suddenly experiencing abdominal pain and bleeding? What should we do?"
Lin Yiwan soothed her softly, "Don't panic, I'll check her pulse first!"
She held Meng Yunshang's wrist and found that her pulse was turbulent, which was indeed a sign of miscarriage.
She asked worriedly, "Have you recently come into contact with anything that promotes blood circulation and dissolves blood stasis? Or have you eaten any cold food?"
Madam Xiao shook her head vigorously: "No, Yunchang's food, clothing and daily expenses have all been carefully checked by me, there will definitely not be the slightest mistake!"
Lin Yiwan didn't ask any more questions and immediately gave her a pregnancy-preserving pill.
When her expression eased a little, she took a few silver needles and inserted them into the key points of her lower abdomen.
While holding her breath and waiting, Madam Xiao asked nervously, "Wanwan, is Yunshang okay? I, I'm really worried about her!"
Lin Yiwan soothed her softly, "Don't worry too much. After I finish using the needle, I'll leave her some pregnancy-preserving pills. As long as she's well cared for, she'll be fine!"
Mrs. Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She said anxiously, "I'll go out and ask the kitchen to prepare lunch for you. You and Qiu Tang stay!"
Lin Yiwan did not stop her and let her lead her people away quickly.
About half an hour later, Meng Yunshang's breathing finally stabilized, and her pale face gradually regained its radiance.
She said gratefully, "Wanwan, thank you!"
Lin Yiwan put away the needle and said, "We still need to check what caused the fetal movement. Have you been out recently?"
Meng Yunshang sighed helplessly: "Ever since I got pregnant, my mother-in-law has been guarding me like a treasure, not allowing me to go anywhere. I can only walk in the backyard, how can I leave the house?"
Lin Yiwan said, "I'll go to the backyard to check the situation first. You must have come into contact with something that promotes blood circulation and dissolves blood stasis. Otherwise, you wouldn't be bleeding!"
Meng Yunshang quickly said, "I'll let my maid accompany you!"
The maid led the way, and Lin Yiwan and Sang Qiutang came to the backyard together.
I have to say that Mrs. Xiao takes good care of the backyard.
Seasonal flowers are planted everywhere, blooming brilliantly and colorfully.
Perhaps Mrs. Xiao heard that she was in the backyard, so she came over.
She asked anxiously, "Wanwan, have you noticed anything unusual?"
Lin Yiwan replied, "Not yet, but you have quite a few flowers and trees in your backyard, and they're blooming beautifully. Do you have someone taking care of them?"
Madam Xiao pointed in a direction and said, "That's Hua Niang. She's an orphan I adopted. She's great at growing flowers. As you know, my son is a scholar and he really cares about these flowers and plants!"
She paused and continued, "Yun Shang likes them too. She says looking at these flowers makes her feel better, so I take her here every day!"
Lin Yiwan didn't say anything, but picked a flower and put it to her nose to smell it.
After a moment, she smelled something different.
She lowered her head and took a closer look, and unexpectedly discovered that there were different types of pollen in the flowers and buds.
This is strange!
She sniffed again and finally found something wrong. There was saffron powder in this flower. If there was any breeze, wouldn't it all be blown onto Meng Yunshang?
She frowned, and her sharp gaze fell on the figure not far away.
Madam Xiao asked doubtfully, "Wanwan, do you want to ask Hua Niang a question?"
Lin Yiwan nodded. "Well, I think the flowers she grows are pretty good. I'd like to ask her for advice on how to grow them so beautifully!"
Mrs. Xiao quickly ordered someone to call Hua Niang over, and she saw that she was a pretty girl with a very gentle appearance.
Especially her eyes flickered timidly, as if she was afraid that others would scold her.
She bowed respectfully to Lin Yiwan: "This servant pays homage to Madam Hou and Madam Lin!"
Lin Yiwan didn't let her get up, but asked directly: "Can you tell me what else is in this flower besides pollen?"
Hua Niang shuddered all over, and she shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I don't know, please tell me clearly, Madam Hou!"
Lin Yiwan curled her lips and sneered, "Let's be frank. I can't imagine who else could have hidden saffron powder so cleverly inside, except for you, the flower lady. After all, anyone else would have hurt the flower buds!"
Hua Niang was trembling all over, but she subconsciously denied it: "You're talking nonsense! You're wrongly accusing a good person!"
Madam Xiao had already understood what was going on. She strode over to Hua Niang, grabbed her by the collar, and shouted, "You eat and drink from my Xiao family, and yet you're trying to murder my daughter-in-law and drink her unborn child?"
Hua Niang burst into tears and said, "Madam, don't listen to her. I didn't do it. Madam, please believe me!"
She kowtowed heavily, and her head hit the ground with a series of terrifying loud thuds.
The old nanny accompanying Madam Xiao felt a little sorry for what was happening. She spoke anxiously, "Madam, is there some misunderstanding here? Hua Niang is the poor girl you took in. She has always been very filial to you. When she knew you had a cough, she braved the hardships of the mountains to collect licorice and boil water!"
"She was even more caring towards the young lady. Worried that she might hurt her feet in the yard, she smoothed down the sharp edges of the stones bit by bit. You saw everything she did!"
Madam Xiao shouted angrily, "Shut up, I trust Wanwan's judgment. Someone, search her room!"
The old lady's face froze, then she turned around and left quickly.
After about a cup of tea, she hurried back with a few maids.
She glanced at Lin Yiwan with a hint of dissatisfaction, then said in a deep voice, "Madam, I've already searched Hua Niang's room, and there's no suspicious powder at all!"
Madam Xiao was furious. She stared down at Hua Niang and said, "Even if you die in front of me, I won't give up my suspicion of you. You'd better hand over the things. Otherwise, I will report you to the police and have you arrested for intentionally murdering the master!"
Hua Niang raised her bloodied head and said disappointedly, "I've served you for so long. Even if I haven't done anything great, I've certainly worked hard. Are you going to force me to death just because of a random word from an outsider?"
Madam Xiao interrupted impatiently, "Don't try to deceive people. Wanwan is right. In the entire Xiao Mansion, no one can hide saffron powder inside the flower buds without anyone noticing!"
Hua Niang sobbed sadly, "Since Madam is so suspicious of me, I can only die to prove my innocence!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she made a move to slam into the wall next to her.
Mrs. Xiao's expression suddenly changed. Just as she was about to stop him, Lin Yiwan grabbed her wrist.
