Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 291: The Concubine’s Daughter Defies Heaven and Changes Fate (31)
Aunt Xia was also confused. How could she not know that she was pregnant? She was smart enough not to fight back, but to cooperate with Shi Qing in acting.
She believed Qingqing would not harm her, because she was her daughter whom she protected with her life.
"What nonsense are you talking about! Madam Wan, slap her mouth! How dare a mere concubine spread rumors and cause trouble? I will tear you apart."
Princess Changping has always had a hot temper and is very decisive. Normally, no one dares to disobey her. However, due to her relationship with the emperor, most people in the court know their limits, so they would choose to take a detour when they see Princess Changping.
Until the sound of a man coughing softly was heard, and Prime Minister Jiang's voice sounded behind Princess Changping.
"This is the Prime Minister's Residence, not the Imperial Palace. Madam, why are you trying to show off?"
Princess Changping's expression changed slightly. No wonder Jiang Qingqing dared to speak like that just now. It turned out that she was targeting her. Very good, she really had ulterior motives.
"She is a maidservant who came with the dowry and now she has secretly returned to the mansion. She actually contradicted me and even spread rumors and caused trouble. My husband, do you think it is wrong for me to teach her a lesson?"
Prime Minister Jiang came over with a gloomy look in his eyes. Shi Qing raised his eyebrows and said fearlessly.
"Please, Daddy, help Mom. She's already having a difficult pregnancy. Madam not only forbade Mom from hiring a doctor, but she also withheld money from Fangtingyuan's food and clothing. Mom hasn't had new clothes made in years. I know my voice is insignificant, but I still want justice for Mom."
Aunt Xia had a plan in mind. She stroked her belly and said while wiping away her tears.
"Qingqing, this is how we've been living these past few years. I'm used to it. Don't ask your father to embarrass him. Get up quickly."
Prime Minister Jiang's heart seemed to be struck by someone. When he stepped into Fangting Garden, he noticed that Fangting Garden was a bit dilapidated and many places were damaged. It would definitely not provide shelter from the wind and rain on rainy days.
He deliberately did not visit Aunt Xia, just to make her admit her mistakes and beg for forgiveness, but she would rather take responsibility for everything than bow her head in front of him.
Princess Changping said unhappily, "Are you and your daughter deliberately colluding to plot against me?"
Shi Qing pretended to be afraid and begged for mercy, "Madam, I dare not."
Prime Minister Jiang felt inexplicably unhappy. Over the years, he had almost obeyed Changping in every way. He only wanted to keep the Xia mother and daughter, but how could she not be so tolerant?
Aunt Xia's appearance was well maintained and she looked more beautiful than Princess Changping, which made him inexplicably want to protect her.
"Are you really pregnant?"
Prime Minister Jiang asked Aunt Xia softly, his eyes full of anticipation. He really wanted a child, and it would be best if it was a boy.
Aunt Xia shook her head. "I've just been feeling a little weak lately, and occasionally nauseous. I don't know if I'm pregnant or not."
These words were said unintentionally, but the listener took them to heart. Princess Changping's expression changed slightly, and she obviously realized that Aunt Xia was very likely pregnant.
However, she was worried that Aunt Xia was making up an excuse, so she told Prime Minister Jiang.
"Since Concubine Xia is pregnant, it would be better to ask a doctor to come and take her pulse to avoid any mistakes."
Shi Qing was calm and composed, as if everything was as expected. Princess Changping really could not tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes.
Tuanzi in the system space was a little uneasy and said excitedly.
[The host's prediction is really amazing, he actually calculated all this.]
Shi Qing raised her eyebrows. As an excellent female supporting role, it was necessary to plan some things in advance.
[It just so happens that the elixirs for the palace fighting interface in this small world haven't been used up yet. I just gave Xia a fake pregnancy elixir to win favor. This pulse condition will last for five months and can be used to fake the time of pregnancy. It's a must-have elixir for palace fighting, which will make it easier for me to do some things.]
The scumbag dad wanted power but didn't allow people freedom, so she just wanted to torture him as the first appetizer.
Tuanzi suddenly understood that this was the host's plan. He was indeed a beautiful but evil host, and torturing the scum was exactly what he wanted.
[Host, come on! Tuanzi is waiting for the host to finish the plot. ]
When Prime Minister Jiang heard what Princess Changping said, he thought it was a good idea, so he made an excuse to worry about Aunt Xia's health and ordered someone to invite the court physician to come and see her.
The court doctor came over after a cup of tea. He wiped the cold sweat from his face and respectfully saluted Princess Changping and Prime Minister Jiang.
"Greetings, madam, and hello, sir."
Prime Minister Jiang said in a deep voice, "Examine the aunt."
The court doctor nodded, took out the medicine box and walked to Aunt Xia's side. He put his hand on her pulse and began to feel it. After finding out the pulse, he said in surprise.
"My aunt has been pregnant for two months. Her pulse is like beads rolling down a jade plate. There's no mistake."
The court doctor stroked his beard and spoke in a more serious tone, confirming the fact that Aunt Xia was pregnant.
There was a flash of resentment in Princess Changping's eyes. She didn't expect that Aunt Xia could still be pregnant at her age, especially considering that she only had one daughter, Jiang Xianyu.
If Concubine Xia gave birth to a son, I'm afraid her husband's heart would lean towards that bitch.
After hearing this, Prime Minister Jiang was ecstatic. Calculating the time, he found that he had indeed come to Fangting Garden two months ago when he was drunk.
He drank that night and tormented Aunt Xia several times before leaving.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Xia actually became pregnant.
Prime Minister Jiang was so excited that he hugged Aunt Xia tightly and spoke excitedly.
"Qingzhu, you are pregnant again now, so you must take good care of yourself."
Chunge couldn't help but complain, "Auntie's food and accommodation are always the worst, and I don't know how to take good care of the fetus. If you really care about me, why don't you let me move to a more spacious place?"
After hearing this, Prime Minister Jiang also felt that Chunge was right. Although the words were a bit offensive, the meaning was not wrong.
Princess Changping lost her temper and said coldly, "You have no right to speak here, how dare you!"
Shi Qing added, "Yilan Garden was a great place when Dad and Mom got married. Why not let Mom move back there to take care of her pregnancy? Madam is gentle and considerate, so she shouldn't mind this, right?"
Princess Changping wanted to get angry, but when she saw that there was only Aunt Xia in Prime Minister Jiang's eyes, she knew that if she went against him, it would probably hurt the relationship between husband and wife. In the end, she chose to compromise and took the initiative to speak.
"Why not follow your advice and let Concubine Xia live in Yilan Garden? That way, your husband can take care of her. I will also send some maids and nannies to serve her. I will definitely take good care of Concubine Xia."
Aunt Xia's eyes met with Princess Changping's, but she did not show any fear at this moment.
I used to be a fish on the chopping board, but now it’s time to change. She only has this worthless life, so she must find a way out for herself.
Prime Minister Jiang was very moved to see that Princess Changping was so easy to talk to, and he said with emotion.
"Madam is truly considerate."
So, Aunt Xia moved to Yilan Garden that night. After Shi Qing and others settled Aunt Xia down and the audience had left, he stayed and talked with Aunt Xia.
Aunt Xia asked worriedly, "Qingqing, why do you want me to pretend to be pregnant, and why would the palace doctor help us? I don't understand."
Shi Qing made up a reason to reassure Aunt Xia.
"Mother, I just asked you to take some medicine, which will cause your pulse to become confused. This is the only way to conceal the truth. In two months at most, we can leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. I will arrange for everything outside."
Aunt Xia suddenly burst into tears. Shi Qing thought that Aunt Xia was worried about her future, but he heard her say.
"Qingqing, how did you understand all this in the past? You must have suffered too much. It's because I'm useless. If I had power, you wouldn't have suffered with me."
Shi Qing shook her head. "As long as mother is alive, we can be together as mother and daughter. That's what my daughter wants. Just wait. One day, you will get what you want."
After settling Aunt Xia, Bai Ruoli left Yilan Garden. Before leaving, she told Chunge that no matter what happened, she could go to Duke Dingguo's Mansion to find her.
Chun Ge felt very emotional when she thought that all her sufferings had finally paid off because of Shi Qing. She nodded vigorously and spoke in a firm tone.
"Don't worry, young lady. This servant will take good care of you."
Shi Qing smiled and said nothing. After all, she was relieved about Chun Ge.
Concubine Xia's pregnancy was originally fake, but it would test the evil nature of human beings. Princess Changping would never sit still and wait for death. The time she took action would be when Concubine Xia left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
This hypocritical couple has tortured others for so many years, and now they deserve to suffer.
After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shi Qing did not return directly to the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, but headed towards the south of the city.
There is a clinic in the south of the city that is doing very good business. Countless patients have come here to see doctors over the years. However, the clinic has been temporarily closed recently for unknown reasons.
Shi Qing walked straight into the clinic, found a seat and sat down, then asked in a deep voice, "Is anyone here?"
After a while, a young man in a green shirt came out. He was handsome, but there was some impatience between his brows, especially when he saw Shi Qing, he became even more displeased.
"I wonder what you have to say, please tell me."
Shi Qing felt that this person didn't look like a doctor in the clinic, but more like his ancestor.
"Send your boss here, I have something to discuss."
The young man stood with his hands behind his back and said unhappily, "You came at an unfortunate time. My grandfather fell ill two days ago and has passed away. I can no longer run this clinic. If you have any problems, you should seek help from others."
Shi Qing raised her eyebrows but was not angry. She took out a few banknotes and waved them in front of the man, saying in a deep voice.
"For the sake of silver, why don't you talk to me in detail? What do you think?"
The young man suddenly became a little irritable and said helplessly.
"All the doctors in the clinic have left. I don't have any medical skills, so I can't help you. Please seek help from someone else."
Shi Qing sneered, "You've ruined my grandfather's legacy like this. A hundred years later, you dare to go see the He family's ancestors?"
These words made the man's heart skip a beat. He had no idea that Shi Qing would know his identity, and he suddenly felt a little depressed.
"You and I have no grudges against each other, what exactly do you want to do?"
Shi Qing replied with a good temper, "Let's make a deal. You help me, and I'll help your clinic revive and become the best clinic in the capital."
He Chongguang looked at Shi Qing in surprise. It was hard not to be tempted by such a deal. After thinking about it again and again, he had an answer in his mind, but he still spoke cautiously.
"I am selective in what I do. I don't do anything that would steal or harm people's lives."
Shi Qing rolled his eyes, "You think too much."
