The door was closed and even the windows were closed. Only Mrs. Zhao and Su Niang were in the room.
Mrs. Zhao said excitedly: "Look, the sister-in-law must have done what happened this time! Because Ye Xiang is an aunt, the sister-in-law was cruel this time!"
Su Niang felt that Mrs. Zhao was crazy, so she advised: "Now there is no definite evidence, and it does not necessarily mean that the eldest lady did it. It is just a child of a concubine. I don't know whether it is a boy or a girl. The eldest lady did it."
Why would Madam do this?"
Zhao's eyes showed ruthlessness, "My sister-in-law must be getting older and is not as patient as before. If the concubine is not pregnant, she will definitely make some plans. But Ye Xiang is just a concubine, and the sister-in-law is just a concubine.
I don’t want to bother too much, so I take a strong dose of medicine to avoid future troubles!”
Su Niang was so shocked by Zhao's guess that she asked, "The young lady...are you so cruel and ruthless?"
In fact, the image of the living Bodhisattva created by Ma is so deeply rooted in people's hearts that it is difficult for Su Niang to connect the snake and scorpion woman guessed by Zhao with Ma.
Zhao became more and more certain: "It's because she is a vicious woman behind the scenes, so she has to create such a kind-hearted image on the outside!"
Su Niang shook her head and sighed: "But in the final analysis, all of this is just your guess. Just tell me these words and don't let anyone else hear them."
Zhao gave a sinister smile, "Of course I won't tell anyone. I still understand the principle of alerting the enemy. Let's see how long she can be arrogant!"
What happened in the Hou Mansion also alarmed the Marquis of Dingbei, who was thousands of miles away.
Marquis Dingbei rushed back to deliver a letter. After reading the letter, Mrs. Chen fell softly on the couch.
Mother Chen was startled, "Oh my lady, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Mrs. Chen was so angry that her hands were shaking and she handed the letter to Mother Chen. Mother Chen was her confidant and she could trust her.
Mother Chen received the letter suspiciously, and after reading it, large beads of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
This letter was written about the Marquis’s dissatisfaction with Chen Yaying and Aunt Ye’s miscarriage.
Marquis Dingbei led his troops to fight, and the wording he used was as sharp as killing an enemy on the battlefield, which was frightening to watch.
No wonder Mrs. Chen fell on the couch after watching it, and Mrs. Chen’s vagina trembled after watching it.
Mrs. Chen's face was extremely ugly, "The Marquis said that I am not strict in running the family. If I am incapable, I will hand over the power of running the family to Mrs. Fu!"
Mother Chen trembled. It seemed that Mr. Hou was really angry this time.
No wonder, one is the Marquis's most beloved daughter, and the other may be the Marquis's grandson. How can the Marquis not be angry?
Mother Chen advised: "Master Hou is also angry. When he comes back, please explain it to me. He will definitely calm down. Husband and wife do not have an overnight feud."
Mrs. Chen slapped the coffee table heavily, "But I just can't swallow this breath! What happened to the Fourth Miss was clearly her own confusion, how can she blame me? As for Aunt Ye's child, it wasn't me who caused it.
She has no ability of her own! Who can blame her?"
Mother Chen sighed in her heart. She understood that Mrs. Chen never cared about these stepsons and stepdaughters. Mrs. Chen only had Chen Shan in her heart.
Only when it comes to Chen Shan's affairs will Mrs. Chen take notice.
Mother Chen had to give some advice: "Since Mr. Hou is already dissatisfied, please don't get angry. At least in terms of face, you can't let others find fault with you."
Mrs. Chen slowly drank a bowl of tea, and her anger dissipated a lot. She put the tea cup on the coffee table and said: "In a few days, let's go to the temple to burn incense. You can make arrangements."
"Yes, I will make arrangements now."
*
The weather is getting hot, and it's especially hot at noon. No one would choose to go out at this time. If you go out for a walk, you will definitely sweat a lot.
Ma chose this time to visit Ye Xiang and met almost no one on the way.
Ye Xiang was having her baby confinement, and the windows in the room were tightly closed, leaving no gaps.
As soon as Ma entered the house, she smelled a smell that was not very pleasant.
Her face distorted for a moment and soon returned to normal.
When Ye Xiang saw Mr. Ma coming in, he quickly stood up to greet her and saluted, "Madam, why are you here?"
With a kind smile on his face, Ma said, "I came to see you. I was supposed to come over a few days ago, but unfortunately Brother Ze was not feeling well, so he couldn't come over."
Ye Xiang was moved: "It's rare that you still remember me, but I'm just a concubine. It's the same if you send a maid here."
"How can this be the same?" Ma said, sitting down on the couch with Ye Xiang, and asked how Ye Xiang was doing.
Ye Xiang is still young after all, she will be fine after just a few days of raising her.
As long as the baby can sit properly, there will definitely not be any root causes of disease.
Ma patted Ye Xiang's hand and said happily: "That's good, you are still young, you will definitely have children."
Ye Xiang's smile dimmed, and she waved her hand to let her maid go out.
Seeing this, Mr. Ma also asked his maid and mother-in-law to go out.
When there were only two of them, Ye Xiang said bitterly: "Madam, there are some things I dare not say to others, but only you. I feel that someone is trying to harm my child!"
In Ye Xiang's eyes, Ma is an extremely kind-hearted person.
And as the young lady of the Hou Mansion, the former prince's wife must have some abilities.
Ye Xiang is not very powerful now, so she can only ask Ma for help.
She would definitely not treat the murder of her son as nothing happened.
Ma was shocked and lowered his voice: "You can't say these nonsense. Do you have any evidence?"
Ye Xiang shook her head helplessly and said: "Although there is no evidence, I can tell you the truth. I have given birth to two children before and am very experienced. I know that my pregnancy this time is going well in all aspects. How could it happen suddenly?"
Where is the miscarriage? Someone must have harmed me!"
Ma was silent for a while, then lowered her voice and said, "In this house, there is only one person who hates your pregnancy the most."
"Mr. He?" Ye Xiang shook her head, "She is already like that. There is no way she can harm me."
Ma reminded: "She has no choice, but can she leave it to her subordinates?"
Ye Xiang smiled and said, "I am no longer hiding from you. In fact, everyone around He has been bribed by me."
Ye Xiang looked at Ma's compassionate expression, thinking about Ma's kindness to her, and unknowingly told the truth.
Ma sighed, "Don't be so confident. Other maids and women may be bribed by you, but that's not necessarily the case for He Zhu. After all, they are relatives. They will both prosper and suffer. Her parents are both here."
It’s in the hands of the He family.”
Ye Xiang was horrified, with a murderous look in his eyes.
