Wang Xinyao then examined several other concubines, finding they all had similar problems. This was understandable, considering the lack of toilet paper in ancient times, let alone sanitary napkins, and the suffering women endured was inevitable.

"Mr. Wu, the ladies are all in good health, there's no need to worry. I've already prescribed some medicine for any minor problems, they just need to take it on time!"

Wu Yuanwai was very grateful. "That's great. Thank you, Miss Wang."

Perhaps because he stayed in the hall for too long, Wu Mingjun looked anxious and kept shouting, "Dad, I want to eat, I want to eat..."

Hearing his son was hungry, Wu Yuanwai was extremely anxious and immediately ordered, "Come here, quickly bring the young master's favorite dishes, tuna, goose meat, and eggs!"

"Yes, sir!" The servants immediately went to prepare!

Tuna, goose, eggs?

Wang Xinyao couldn't help but ask, "Does your Excellency often eat these foods?"

"Yes, my Mingjun really likes it!" Wu Yuanwai said helplessly, "The food is a bit expensive, but our family can still afford it. Besides, Mingjie heard from an expert that eating these foods together is good for the brain!"

Wang Xinyao was about to say something when Wu Mingjie interrupted her: "Miss Wang, I'd like you to take a look for me, too."

Wang Xinyao was a little surprised, but she agreed. After taking his pulse, she couldn't help but frown. "Mr. Wu, you're a little weak and need to be taken care of. I'll prescribe a few prescriptions. If you take them regularly, you'll definitely see improvement. But don't overindulge yourself!"

After hearing this, Wu Mingjie's face turned dark. Wang Xinyao ignored him and walked straight towards Wu Mingjun.

"Mr. Wu, I have something even more delicious here. Would you like to try some?" As soon as the words fell, Wang Xinyao deftly took out a small pile of chestnuts with attractive colors and fragrant aroma from the bag she was carrying!

"Eat, eat, eat, I want to eat...!" Wu Mingjun, who had been listless and vacant-eyed, instantly perked up at the sight of the plump, glossy chestnuts. His eyes flickered with excitement like lit candles. Without hesitation, he put down the chopsticks in his right hand, which were currently holding tuna and eagerly reaching towards Wang Xinyao, shouting, "Sister, I want..."

Wu Mingjun was no stranger to chestnuts, having tasted them several times before. However, the chestnuts sold at Qingnianlou were so popular that they were often in short supply. Consequently, Wu sent his servants out to buy them several times, but they were only able to secure them once or twice. Even more frustrating, Qingnianlou even had a purchase limit!

Wu Mingjun's appearance is actually quite good. If it weren't for his dull eyes and hesitant speech, no one would have considered him a lunatic!

When Wang Xinyao saw this scene, a calm smile appeared on her face. She slowly raised her jade hand and handed the chestnuts to Wu Mingjun, and took his pulse without leaving any trace.

At this moment, Wu Mingjun was like a child who had obtained the most precious treasure in the world. He took the chestnuts with great joy and immediately began to devour them with relish.

Wang Xinyao, standing by, quietly gazed at the figure wolfing down his food, her eyes filled with joy and affection. You have to understand that in the eyes of this 28-year-old, even though Wu Mingjun was as tall as an ox, he was only 18 years old after all, and ultimately just an innocent child.

Wu Mingjun was seen stuffing the food into his mouth like a whirlwind, while mumbling incoherently, "Delicious, delicious!" His silly yet handsome look made people smile.

Hearing this, Wang Xinyao couldn't help but smile and said softly, "These chestnuts are not only delicious, but also have many benefits. They contain a variety of nutrients that are very beneficial to human health. If you can eat them regularly, maybe our Master Wu will become more and more intelligent and clever!"

Mr. Wu sat quietly by, leisurely sipping his tea. Upon hearing this, his heart stirred. He quickly set down his teacup, an anxious look on his face. He asked, "Miss Wang, could you sell me some of these chestnuts? I'd really like to buy more so my son, Mingjun, can enjoy this delicacy more often." As soon as he finished speaking, he cast an expectant gaze at Wang Xinyao.

Wang Xinyao shook her head slightly and said softly, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Wu. At present, I only supply these chestnuts to Qingnianlou. If you want to buy them, you can go there to buy them. But... these I brought specially today can all be given to you for tasting. They are placed on my carriage, and I will take them out as gifts when I leave later." After saying this, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile as bright as spring flowers.

At this moment, Li, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly spoke and expressed her gratitude sincerely: "Thank you, Miss Wang, for your generosity! In that case, I hope you can move to the inner hall of my house for a chat. To be honest, I still have many questions about dietary conditioning, and I would like to take this opportunity to ask you a few questions in private." After that, Li smiled and made a gesture of invitation, her eyes full of sincerity and expectation.

"Everyone, disperse!" With Wu Yuanwai's order, the people who had gathered together dispersed. Wu Yuanwai hurriedly followed Wang Xinyao and Li, and walked towards Li's room together.

Soon, the three of them arrived at their destination. As soon as they reached the door, Wu Yuanwai turned to Li's personal maid and instructed, "Xiaomi, you stay here and guard the door. Remember not to let anyone in to disturb us!"

"Yes, sir!" The maid named Xiaomi did not dare to be negligent and responded respectfully.

After the door was closed, Mr. Wu could no longer suppress his inner anxiety. Before everyone had settled down, he blurted out, "Miss Wang, I wonder what the results of this examination are?" As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Wang Xinyao, whom he had been thinking about.

Li, who was standing aside, also had an expectant look on her face at this moment, staring at Wang Xinyao without a moment's movement, as if she wanted to hear the answer from her immediately.

Obviously, the topic they were discussing did not avoid Li, which shows that Mr. Wu really trusted his original wife 100%.

Wang Xinyao felt the anxious gazes of the two men. After a moment's hesitation, she turned her gaze to Li and asked softly, "Madam, I'd like to know what you and everyone else in your household eat on a daily basis. What foods do you eat every day?"

"Our family has always had three meals a day, and we have the habit of drinking soup with every meal. Only the third concubine is particularly afraid of getting fat at night, so she refuses to drink soup for dinner!" Li frowned slightly, thought carefully, and then slowly replied.

"When I examined Madam and all the concubines today, I found that only the third concubine did not have any contraceptive ingredients in her body. Not only that, after further diagnosis, I can confirm that the third concubine has been pregnant for a full half month!" Wang Xinyao nodded solemnly, with no intention of hiding the matter.

"What? She's already half a month pregnant?" Upon hearing the news, Mr. Wu's eyes widened in disbelief. His wife, Mrs. Li, was also stunned. They exchanged glances, each seeing the same shock and confusion.

Wang Xinyao looked at their reactions and nodded again with certainty, "Yes, she is pregnant!"

"This shameless bitch, I've always been so good to her!" At this moment, Wu Yuanwai was trembling with anger. He clenched his fists tightly, veins on his forehead bulged, and a rage burned in his heart. He stood up suddenly, ready to rush out the door and deal with the audacious Third Wife.

"Husband, please don't act so impulsively! Miss Wang is still here. Let's wait and see. Let's understand this matter thoroughly before making any decisions. Is this okay?" Li was anxious. She quickly reached out and grasped her husband's strong arm, fearing he might make a fool of himself. Then, with a look of shame on her face, she turned to Wang Xinyao and whispered, "Miss Wang, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you! My husband was away on business a while ago and only returned the day before yesterday. However, please keep this a secret!"

So that's how it is. I guess this is the reason why Mr. Wu paid the deposit to Mrs. Xie but delayed until a month before coming to ask for her!

Hearing Li's earnest explanation, Wang Xinyao couldn't help but nod slightly, expressing her understanding and sympathy. She parted her red lips and replied slowly, "Madam, please rest assured. This is a matter of family honor. I understand."
