The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

"Young lady has been so angry with her son-in-law that her menstrual period has been disrupted for the past year. It's been almost four months since she last had her period. I'm afraid it's finally coming today. Go make some brown sugar ginger tea for her."

"Yes!"

The two men had no suspicion and hurriedly responded before running out.

After Aunt Gui closed the door, she turned around and saw Lin Yuan kneeling there, feeling Li Shu's pulse. She quickly walked back and asked in a low voice, "Lin Yuan, what happened to the young lady?"

Lin Yuan did not answer immediately. After a moment, he withdrew his hand from Li Shu's wrist and said, "Young lady, your mood has been very fluctuating in recent days, and you haven't had enough rest. In addition, you took abortion pills for two days, so you may have a miscarriage."

"Is it serious?"

"Don't worry, I happen to have some painkillers on me. Miss, the pain will stop in less than a quarter of an hour after you take them."

After saying this, Lin Yuan took out a pill and handed it to Li Shu.

After Li Shu took it and put it in her mouth, Aunt Gui poured her a cup of warm water.

After she swallowed the medicine with water, the pain stopped in just half a minute.

But she was still very pale.

Lin Yuan suppressed his distress and looked at her for a moment, then took out a small packet of incense powder from his arms, "Miss, you need to have a good rest. I took the time to go back to Peacock Terrace today to mix a calming incense for you."

When he came back from delivering the letter to the palace last night, Li Shu was still awake.

And after Li Shu finally fell asleep, he did not leave immediately, so he knew that she was sleeping very uneasily.

"You have a heart."

After Li Shu said this softly, Nanny Gui took the packet of perfume powder from Lin Yuan.

Then Lin Yuan continued, "Miss, after the news about my son-in-law and Miss Xie spread throughout the capital, five groups of people were investigating the source. In addition to the people from the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion and the Zhenbei General's Mansion, there were also three groups of people from the palace."

Li Shu frowned slightly.

The third group of people in the palace?

Which three groups will they be?

As if he had heard her thoughts, Lin Yuan continued, "Among the three groups, two are the emperor and the queen's men, and the other group has not been found yet."

"Then tell me when you find out. I'm a little concerned."

"Yes, I will report..."

"Wait, with so many people investigating the source, will they find out it was someone in your building who spread it?"

"No, because the person who helped the young lady spread the news is from our building, but the news was not spread from our building."

"Then I'm relieved. Go ahead."

"Yes."

Not long after Lin Yuan responded and left, Qinghong Cuiwei brought over brown sugar ginger tea.

Li Shu drank a few sips and then washed, changed clothes and went to bed with their help.

At Tongxin Garden, when Ning Jin arrived at the fastest speed, Liu Xin had already packed up the belongings of the master and servant, and was about to help Xie Yu leave, but he quickly stopped her.

"Yu'er! Why did you leave so suddenly? Weren't you all fine when I was here before?"

"..."

Xie Yu bit her lip, her eyes red and she didn't say anything.

Ning Jin looked at Liu Xin, who was carrying a small bag, and said, "Tell me what happened while I was gone."

Liu Xin glanced at Xie Yu and sank to his knees. "It's all my fault. I was stewing bird's nest for the young lady in the small kitchen just now when I heard about the things that were being widely circulated in the capital from the maid assigned by Nanny Xiang. I was so careless that I told the young lady about it..."

"Tsk!"

Ning Jin smacked his lips, looked back at Xie Yu, and said, "Yu'er, you used to not care about gossip! Besides, we're doing things right and upright. No matter what others say, we're innocent! You don't need to leave because of that!"

Xie Yu sniffed and choked up, "I don't care at all about the gossip others are saying about me, but I'm afraid that if I continue to stay in your mansion, it will affect your reputation in the capital. I'm also afraid that after hearing what outsiders are saying about us, my sister-in-law will really develop a rift with you, Brother Ning. I know better than anyone how much you love me. I would rather die alone than be the one who destroys your relationship with my sister-in-law... ahem..."

"Tsk! Why are you mentioning death again? Didn't we already agree not to mention that word? And the imperial doctors have already said that your condition has stabilized. From now on, as long as you take good care of yourself and try not to get sick again, you can live a normal life until old age!"

"I'm sorry, Brother Ning, I didn't mean to bring that up, it's just... ahem..."

"Okay, stop talking for now. I'll carry you back to your room and let you lie down."

After saying this, Ning Jin picked up Xie Yu and carried her back to the room.

After he put Xie Yu on the bed, Xie Yu tugged at his sleeve and asked with red eyes like a deer, "Brother Ning, your mother asked you to return to Bamboo Garden at this time, is it because your sister-in-law also heard about what happened in the capital today, and she misunderstood us and quarreled with you again?"

Ning Jin's brows furrowed fiercely.

Is Shushu being naughty tonight?

In the past, no matter who talked about him and Yu'er, even when he and Shushu were in a cold war after a quarrel, Shushu would try her best to defend them. So over time, he gradually didn't care at all what others thought of him and Yu'er.

He felt that as long as Shushu believed in him and as long as he and Yuer were open and honest with each other, that would be enough.

But today, my mother went to see Shushu late at night and asked her to defend them as she did in the past, but Shushu had no intention of defending them anymore...

Although he felt there was no need to argue with anyone...

"Brother Ning?"

"No, my mother asked me to go back to Zhuyuan tonight because she hopes that Shushu and I can have a child soon."

"Oh, so it's because of this..."

Xie Yu blinked, a slight blush rising on her pale face. "Brother Ning, you and sister-in-law are both extremely beautiful. Your child will definitely be very cute and lovely. I also want to meet your child soon!"

When she said this, her eyes lit up surprisingly.

It can be seen that it comes from the heart.

Ning Jin thought that if Shushu saw Yu'er like this, she would not suspect that there was something ambiguous between him and Yu'er.

But before this, no matter how badly Shushu quarreled with him, she never took her anger out on Yuer. She would still take Yuer to various banquets and buy various things for Yuer. Why did she change this time?

Could it be that Shushu really has no words to say?

Then why do so many people insist that it was Shushu who recommended Yu'er?

It's impossible that so many people were wrong at the same time, right?

Ning Jin thought to himself that the wrinkles between his eyebrows were so thick they could almost kill a fly. Xie Yu then said with deep remorse, "Brother Ning, I'm sorry. Did my ignorance just now ruin your and sister-in-law's happiness tonight?"

After asking this question, Xie Yu's face became even redder.

She had always been bold in speaking her mind, without the usual scruples of young girls, but she was still a virgin after all. Ning Jin didn't want to discuss that with her, so he simply said, "I won't return to Bamboo Garden until she comes to apologize and make amends."

"But Brother Ning, it's really not..."

"Okay, I know what you're going to say. I'll investigate further to make sure she's not wrongly accused."

"Well! With what you said, Brother Ning, I can rest assured! These past two days, I've been unable to sleep or eat because I thought about you and my sister-in-law arguing because of the illness I got after falling into the water. But I kept saying that it wasn't my sister-in-law who pushed me, but I slipped and fell into the water with her. But you, Brother Ning, just don't believe it. Even the second and third brothers Li don't believe it. No wonder my sister-in-law is so angry. If it were me, I would be angry too! After you find out the truth, Brother Ning, you must apologize to my sister-in-law!"

"..."

Ning Jin sighed secretly.

Yu'er is just too kind!
