Zhan Yan didn't hesitate for a moment and carried her away.

After entering the bathroom, Lin Yiwan changed into thin pajamas.

The flickering candlelight reveals a beautiful face as charming as a flower.

The next day, Lin Yiwan woke up feeling sore all over.

She lowered her head to glance at her chest and quickly took the quilt to cover the large red mark.

She couldn't help but secretly curse Zhan Yan for being a bad person and making trouble all the time!

She took the clothes and put them on, and then she saw Ling'er walk in quickly and said, "Madam, Madam Fang is outside asking to see you!"

Lin Yiwan blinked her eyes. "Hey, sister-in-law? How long has she been here? Why didn't she just come in and wake me up?"

Ling'er helped her out and said, "You just arrived. I haven't even served her tea yet, and you're already up!"

When they arrived at the teahouse, they saw Bai Qiaoyin's pretty face was bright and there was a hint of spring between her brows. It was obvious that she had a good night last night.

When she saw Lin Yiwan, she immediately stood up and took Ling'er's place, helping her sit on the chair.

Lin Yiwan was sharp-eyed and immediately noticed the red marks on her neck. She couldn't help but tease, "Sister-in-law, there are obviously no mosquitoes in winter, so how did you get bitten?"

Bai Qiaoyin's pretty face flushed instantly, and she said coquettishly, "Wanwan, you're making fun of my sister-in-law again! If you do this again, my sister-in-law won't come!"

Lin Yiwan held her hand and said, "Please don't. If my sister-in-law doesn't come to my place, I'll be so lonely. My belly is so big now that it's hard for me to go out. I'm counting on you to talk to me and cheer me up!"

Bai Qiaoyin looked at her pregnant belly: "How many months are you pregnant? Why do you look like you're about to give birth? My sister-in-law's baby wasn't as big as yours when she was about to give birth!"

Lin Yiwan was also very worried, it was only almost five months.

She didn't know how it got so big. She thought it was twins, so she asked her grandfather to check her pulse. He confirmed that it was a single baby, which made her very disappointed.

Lin Yiwan supported herself with her hands and said, "Maybe my family has good food, so it nourished the little guy and made him grow so big!"

Bai Qiaoyin immediately became worried. She frowned and said, "Wanwan, you have to make plans early. If the baby is too big, it might be dangerous. Although you can perform a cesarean section, your grandfather can't. Who can help you when you give birth?"

This sentence reminded Lin Yiwan that she had not yet thought about having children.

She was silent for a moment before she said, "I will discuss this with my grandfather and ask him to help me choose a female doctor to work in the mansion. I will then teach her myself!"

Bai Qiaoyin nodded: "It's always best to plan ahead. By the way, I came here today not only to thank you for helping me and your brother resolve the crisis, but also to ask if you have any medication to help with pregnancy. I'm always thinking about getting pregnant quickly, otherwise, I'd feel sorry for your brother!"

Lin Yiwan noticed the helplessness in her eyes and subconsciously asked, "What's wrong? Is someone from the Fang family putting pressure on you?"

Bai Qiaoyin quickly shook her head and denied it: "No, my mother-in-law treated me very well. She was just trying to comfort me. Even my father-in-law was very kind to me. But I can't get over it. After all, they handed over their military power because of me!"

The maid next to her couldn't stand it any longer and quickly spoke up, "Madam, you don't know, but now everyone is saying that our Madam is a chicken that can't lay eggs. Even worse, they're calling her a scumbag. Now even the branches of the Fang family have complaints about her and are trying every way to get people around the old lady!"

Lin Yiwan couldn't help but frown. There were many people with bad mouths in this world. They didn't even understand what was happening in their own homes, but they were already meddling in other people's affairs.

But if you think about it, things may not be that simple!

The fact that rumors could spread so quickly must be due to someone fanning the flames behind the scenes.

As for who that person is, the answer is self-evident!

She must be a barbarian princess who is unwilling to be rejected in marriage repeatedly, and she wants to save face.

In that case, let's defeat those rumors with facts.

Although it is not easy to get pregnant, it may not be impossible.

Lin Yiwan immediately began to prepare fertility-aiding pills based on Bai Qiaoyin's physique.

In addition, acupuncture can further increase her chances of pregnancy.

Bai Qiaoyin was in great pain during the acupuncture process, and cold sweat appeared on her pretty face.

Lin Yiwan said, "Sister-in-law, your body is prone to coldness, so it's not easy for you to get pregnant. Did you soak in cold water during your period before?"

Bai Qiaoyin moved her head buried in the brocade pillow and murmured softly, "When I was accompanying your brother on the battlefield, soaking in cold water was common. We didn't care even when we had our period!"

Lin Yiwan couldn't help but feel distressed. Without the efforts of her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, how could those people outside have a good life?

What right do they have to look down on her for not being able to have children?

It's really better to just sit back and relax!

She tried to comfort Bai Qiaoyin in a hoarse voice, "If anyone dares to mock you in person in the future, tell me and I'll have my father send them all to the border military camp for a few months. Let's see if they can still be so mean!"

Bai Qiaoyin couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and the pain from the acupuncture was also relieved a lot.

About half an hour later, she took the pills and left.

Lin Yiwan was really exhausted. After eating something simple, she went back to the couch to take a nap.

As soon as I fell asleep, I had a nightmare.

She saw her mother Lin Su lying in a pool of blood, crying out in agony, "My child, my child, my child!"

"Mom!" Lin Yiwan was so frightened that her whole body shuddered and she suddenly opened her eyes and woke up.

Ling'er came in with a candle and asked worriedly, "Madam, are you having a nightmare? Why are you sweating so much?"

Lin Yiwan turned her head and glanced around. It was dark outside the window and the lights in the house were on. It was obvious that it was very late.

She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead and asked, "What time is it? Has the Marquis not returned yet?"

Ling'er replied, "It's already the hour of Xu. The Marquis sent Yinghun back with a message saying that the Emperor is discussing something with him and will be home very late. He asked you not to wait for him any longer!"

After saying that, he handed a cup of warm water to her.

Lin Yiwan lowered her head and took a sip. After swallowing it, she felt that her blocked throat was finally smoother.

The scene of Lin Su lying in a pool of blood kept appearing in her mind, and she became extremely anxious.

She couldn't wait to see her, even though she knew it was a nightmare, she had to rush to Li Wang Mansion to see her.

She quickly put down the bowl of water and put the cloak on herself.

Ling'er was startled. She asked in shock: "Madam, where are you going so late?"

Lin Yiwan walked out: "Let's go to Prince Li's Mansion to see my mother. I miss her!"

Ling'er was stunned at first, then she reacted and said, "Madam, the Prince Li's Mansion sent a message earlier, saying that the prince and the princess went to stay at a farm outside the capital!"
