Early the next morning, Qianlan came to the Hou Mansion to check Liuyun's pulse and confirmed that she was pregnant. She explained to Wanqing for half an hour how to treat her and protect the fetus. After talking for a long time, she left.
Although she was pregnant, she still had to copy the Buddhist scriptures. After they were copied, Liu Yun still sent them to the ancestral hall. However, on this day, Mo Li followed Liu Yun and supported her, especially when going up and down the stairs.
, the commotion left Liuyun speechless for a while. She was only one month pregnant, so why did Moli make her look like a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.
As they walked back, many eyes appeared behind them. Moli knew it, but he couldn't take action at will. He just wanted to get to Qingfeng Garden as soon as possible, which was a truly safe place.
It was calm here in Qingfeng Garden, but there was an undercurrent in Su Wan's place. Her confidant maid was standing aside to report to her what she had just learned.
"How are you sure Mu Liuyun is pregnant?" Su Wan had a stern look on her face, unable to tell what she was thinking.
"During the day, I heard that people from Qingfeng Garden went to the big kitchen to take care of the young lady's food. They said that there was no need to bother sending it here and there. They have a small kitchen in Qingfeng Garden and you can cook it yourself. Then I went to inquire about it. Qingfeng
Most of the ingredients that Yuan took away were for health. Someone brought a lot of fresh longan today. Longan is very precious at this time. It is said that it was sent from a long way away. Some were given to Qingfeng Yuan and the slaves.
I heard that the young lady gives food to the servants. If you want to see how precious the longan is in this season, there is no reason why the young lady should not eat for the servants." Su Wan's personal maid Pingting approached her and said, "Miss knows.
Well, longan is something that pregnant women should not eat in the early stages."
Su Wan's pupils shrank suddenly, as if she didn't believe what Pingting said, and she stared at her fiercely: "Are you sure?"
"It's absolutely true." Pingting nodded seriously, and then added, "I was cautious and went to inquire secretly. A girl from the Mu family came to our house this morning. I heard that she was the young lady's former girl. Then
This girl... has medical skills, so she has always been favored by the young lady."
With a 'ping' sound, the tea cup in Su Wan's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. However, she clenched her fists and didn't know what she was thinking.
"Didn't they consummate their marriage? Whose child is that?" The cold voice was as cold as a snowy mountain that has lasted for many years and never melted.
These words were not easy to accept. Pingting pursed her lips and remained silent.
In Su Wan's heart, Dongfang Ye is sacred and cannot be profaned. When she knew that the emperor had given Dongfang Ye a marriage, but had given him a humble merchant's daughter to be his official wife, she felt unfair for him and even felt sorry for him.
Shame, as if she was the one being humiliated.
That's why she tried her best to suppress Liu Yun and set her up again and again. Originally, this time she wanted to use the matter of copying Buddhist scriptures to make Liu Yun leave Qingfeng Yuan, so that she could secretly send someone to attack her. After all, Qingfeng Yuan's
The guard was so tight that not even a fly could fly in, but she didn't expect that it was almost destroyed by Dongfang Jing, so she could only spread rumors about their relationship to make the eldest lady feel upset and give her time.
Think about how to take the next step.
But she didn't expect that she would know such an earth-shattering secret before she even thought about what to do next.
Mu Liuyun was actually pregnant, and her husband had only been away for less than a month. She actually dared to steal from him. It really... made her extremely angry.
"Could it... be the third young master?" When Pingting said this, she carefully observed the young lady's face. Sure enough, as soon as she said the third young master, Su Wan's face immediately darkened, which represented what she said.
It was exactly what Su Wan had guessed.
"Dongfang Jing." Su Wan read out Dongfang Jing's name coldly. The person she suspected was indeed Dongfang Jing. Although she was the one who spread the news about Liu Yun and Dongfang Jing, and she was the one who caused the rumors to be spread.
There may be no reason for the rumors to come out of nowhere. The reason why she spread such rumors in the first place was because Dongfang Jing and Liu Yun were indeed very close.
Looking back now, she felt that Dongfang Jing was very suspicious. Could it be that she had exposed this secret unintentionally?
"What are you going to do, Miss?" Pingting asked cautiously. Seeing that Su Wan's face was turning blue and purple, she knew that she was hesitating now, and then asked, "Do you want to tell Mrs. Side?"
"I can't say." Su Wan denied decisively. "If she knew about this, she would definitely tell Mr. Hou. How could she let go of such a good opportunity to hit Aunt Lan and Rong."
She didn't care at all about the eldest lady and Madam Shangguan, Liu Yun and Dongfang Jing didn't matter to her at all, but she didn't want Dongfang Ye to be stained with any stains. He should be perfect, how could he have a wife who stole someone? Absolutely
no.
"Are you going to help conceal this matter?" Pingting frowned. This was a great opportunity to bring down the first lady and the young lady in one fell swoop.
Su Wan was in a mess, and she couldn't make up her mind for a moment, but she knew that she could never expose this matter, otherwise it would be Dongfang Ye who would be embarrassed.
"I'll go talk to Mu Liuyun. If... if she is willing to leave the Hou Mansion..." Su Wan pursed her lips and continued, "If she is willing to leave Brother Ye, I can give her a way to survive."
A flash of shrewdness flashed in Pingting's eyes. Yes, the purpose of their young lady is to marry the eldest young master. Only if the young lady is willing to leave voluntarily can she have a chance to marry the eldest young master.
"However, if Mrs. Side learns about this, she will definitely blame Miss Side for hiding it." Pingting frowned and continued to persuade, "If Miss Side tells Mrs. Side, then all the Miss Side and Mrs. Side will be unlucky.
Those who are against me, when the time comes when Mrs. Side is favored by the Marquis alone, it will be easy for me to bring up the matter of marrying the young master to the eldest young master."
"Stop talking, I won't risk Brother Ye's reputation." Su Wan suddenly stood up and glanced at Pingting coldly, "You'd better shut your mouth and do as I say.
, no one is allowed to say it, do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand." Pingting lowered her head and responded repeatedly.
Su Wan straightened her front and raised her lips with a smile: "I'll go to Qingfeng Garden, and you can continue to send people to inquire about Mu Liuyun's pregnancy."
"Yes." Pingting smiled slightly. After Su Wan left, she stood up straight again and looked at her back, with a sneer on her lips: "Miss Su family...hehe..."
She really stayed in the Hou Mansion for so long that she forgot her last name, and also forgot that everything she owned now was not her own, but belonged to the Hou Mansion, including the place where she lived, and...
