"No, slave. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, madam..." The nanny quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Since arriving in Jinling, she has become less and less useful. She originally wanted to make a splash and make herself look good in front of her master, but unexpectedly she ended up unhappy.
If she had known this earlier, she wouldn't have come up with such a stupid idea.
Mrs. Yao scolded the nanny and warned her again not to do anything behind her back, otherwise she would do it herself without the old lady having to deal with the nanny.
She told the nanny that today was no better than in the past, and no one in the whole family could hide it from the old lady.
If the nanny is really doing it for her own good, just stay there and treat her as if she is providing for the nanny in her old age; but if she dares to "betray the master", the whole family will be beaten to death.
The nanny was frightened, so naturally she didn't dare not to obey.
Asking the nanny to go down, Mrs. Yao was thinking about the child in Mrs. Yao's belly.
Nanny was just suspicious, but she didn't know whether Mrs. Yao Er was pregnant or not.
Mrs. Yao knew that Mrs. Yao Er did not dare to speak out, maybe because she was worried that someone would harm her, but Mrs. Yao swore that she hoped that Mrs. Yao Er would have good news soon, because as long as Mrs. Yao Er had good news, she would be able to
I am sure that Lao Taijun's medicine is effective and I am sure that I still have a chance to get pregnant.
Mrs. Yao touched her belly and felt a little envious: If only I had a child in my belly!
The baby in the belly: "..."

"Really pregnant?"
Gu Qingling looked at Ma Chen below with a surprised look on her face.
At that time, she just felt something was abnormal and had some doubts. She did not expect that Chen Ma would find out so quickly that Mrs. Yao Er had not changed her bath for several months.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk...
Does Mrs. Yao want to "hide it", or does she not want to hide it?
"I don't know, but it's just that the second lady hasn't had a bath for several months," Chen Ma lowered her head and said respectfully, "Besides, when I was investigating, I found that the eldest lady was also investigating."
Gu Qingling: "...Do you know what's happening over there, madam?"
"I haven't checked it yet, so I'm not sure. If the old lady needs it, I can go and investigate."
Gu Qingling thought for a while and finally did not let Chen Ma investigate. She just asked her to be more vigilant and have people keep an eye on the two courtyards to make sure nothing went wrong.
She thought for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out why Mrs. Yao Er wanted to hide her pregnancy.
If you just found out that the pregnancy period is relatively short, the ancients paid attention to three months, and then announced the good news after the pregnancy was stable, then it would be okay, but...
Mrs. Yao Er has not changed her bath for more than three months, right?
The tire has already been firmly seated and you haven’t mentioned it yet. What are you trying to do?
Is it possible that Mrs. Yao Er is worried that someone will harm the child in her belly?
Judging from Gu Qingling's limited experience in palace fighting and house fighting, she really didn't know how many people would harm the child in Mrs. Yao Er's belly.
If there were other women around Mr. Yao before, Gu Qingling would still be suspicious of those women. But the problem is that since she found out that her sons and daughters-in-law have been drugged, they used the excuse of moving.
When he returned to his ancestral home in Jinling, he got rid of those women.
Not to mention Second Master Yao, Uncle Yao and Third Master Yao are all clean around them.
Under such a situation, Gu Qingling couldn't think of anyone else who would harm the child in Mrs. Yao's belly. Couldn't it be Mrs. Yao or Mrs. Yao?
Because from the perspective of the ultimate beneficiary, if something happens to Mrs. Yao's second wife, either Mrs. Yao or Mrs. Yao's third wife will benefit. But the problem is, even if something happens to Mrs. Yao's second wife, her child Yao Anhong has grown up.
It seems like it won’t be very affected, right?
On the contrary, it is Mrs. Yao. If she is pregnant...
Gu Qingling was worried that Mrs. Yao's second wife and Mrs. Yao's third wife might have some evil intentions and get rid of the child in Mrs. Yao's belly.
After all, once the first bedroom has no children, the second and third bedrooms with children can start thinking about expanding the family.
So after thinking for a long time, Gu Qingling couldn't figure out why Mrs. Yao Er wanted to "conceal" this matter.

In the evening, Mr. Yao received a "notice" from Mrs. Yao, asking him to go and tell the old lady the good news.
Second Master Yao was stunned: "Ah? Didn't you say...this matter is not urgent? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"I was not in a hurry, but this is not a report from the people below. Someone asked me about my change of clothes..." Mrs. Yao Er was vague and said, "I have no experience before, so I forgot to hide this matter from others.
, as long as others inquire and find out that I haven’t changed my clothes for several months, they will know what’s going on.”
In fact, it was not that she had forgotten, but that everyone had been given "sterile fertility drugs" and she didn't think anyone would come to inquire about it.
But the problem is that when she went out today, she seemed a little cautious because of her big belly, and Mr. Yao looked attentive, fearing that someone might notice something strange.
No, not long after, she heard the report from the people below that a maid in charge of laundry in the courtyard had a conversation with the people in the outer courtyard.
"Since some people are suspicious, we might as well point it out directly, lest others think we have some bad intentions." Mrs. Yao Er touched her slightly protruding belly, "And I also want to see, in Old Taijun
Under my nose, who dares to attack me?"
To put it bluntly, Mrs. Yao Er still doesn’t believe Mrs. Yao.
If possible, she would like to hide it until birth, but she also knows that once her belly grows, it will be difficult to hide it.
From now on, she can only be careful not to fall into Mrs. Yao's trap.
Second Master Yao frowned, a little unhappy, but he also knew that although they suspected Mrs. Yao, they had no evidence before others took action. If they continued to "hide it" like this, others would only think that they were "pretentious"
", maybe it will make his mother unhappy.
Now their second wife is still counting on his mother to live a good life, so naturally they cannot offend her.
"Okay, I understand, I will tell you. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you!"
"Master, I believe you."
…
Early in the morning, Mr. Yao and his wife came over to pay their respects.
Gu Qingling glanced at Mrs. Yao's increasingly obvious "pregnancy" and asked them to get up.
——Yesterday, you pretended to be normal, but today you straighten your waist and touch your belly. The hint is too obvious, right?
——Why, are you trying to make it clear?
Sure enough, after the greetings were over, Gu Qingling heard Master Yao announcing the good news to her with a happy face.
"Really?!" Gu Qingling pretended to be surprised and looked at Mrs. Yao Er happily, "Are you really pregnant?"
"Yes! I'm pregnant." Mrs. Yao Er touched her belly with a loving smile, "In a few months, the old lady will be able to hold a little grandson again."
"Oh...that's really great! I was thinking before that, after you have been recovering for so long, you should have good news. I didn't expect you to have good news so soon, hehehehe..."
"This is thanks to the old lady. If it weren't for the blessing of the old lady, I wouldn't have the good news so soon. I just don't know whether the old lady wants a granddaughter or a grandson."
"It doesn't matter if you have grandchildren. As long as mother and daughter are safe, everything will be fine."
…
He didn't pursue the matter that Mrs. Yao Er had reported after being pregnant for four or five months, nor did she ask why she suddenly revealed it at this time after keeping it secret for so long. Gu Qingling pretended that she didn't know what to do and looked happy.
