What, Dr. Lu? Auntie Xiao's face immediately turned ashen!
Previously, the Xiao family's Doctor Lin was responsible for keeping her blood veins in her body. In the following months, she was very careful and didn't allow the Lian family's doctor to have the opportunity to come in contact with her. What should she do if Doctor Lu came?
Lian Ru Yue looked at the tightly shut door and shouted for a long time, but still couldn't see Madam Xiao open the door. She instructed Senior Servant Xiao, who was standing to the side, "Go and invite the old madam over. Tell her that the Xiao family is having a difficult time giving birth."
"Yes, Eldest Miss." Senior Servant Tai understood and hurried out.
The sky brightened up slightly. When the guard guarding the gate saw Lian Shiya, his eyes revealed a trace of surprise — —
Lian Shiya said with a stern expression, "I heard that the Madam was giving birth, so I came back overnight to take a look. Quickly, let me in."
"Yes." The guards opened the door, and Lian Shiya walked in. Orange embroidery held a basket in her hands as she followed with her head lowered. She was so nervous that she didn't dare to look at anything.
"Wait." At this time, the guards blocked the orange embroidery and asked, "What's inside?"
"This, this is …" The Orange embroidery eyes looked at Lian Shiya for help
Lian Shiya looked at the guard and her face sank as she said, "This is a valuable tonic for the First Wife. The Fourth Prince specifically ordered it. Is there a problem?"
"According to the rules, you have to check it before you can bring it in."
"Impudent!" "He dares to check the fourth prince's belongings. He must be tired of living!" Lian Shiya took the basket from the orange embroidery hand and quickly left.
The two of them walked around the corridor and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Hurry to the west yard. They should all be celebrating for our eldest wife in Fuan Courtyard." When Lian Shiya was thinking about the First Wife's child for the rest of her life, the crowd was happy. For the time being, they couldn't care less about the west yard.
The master and the servant took advantage of the dark night to avoid everyone's eyes and ears as they walked in the direction of the west yard. They were only missing this one step.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Auntie Xiao is having a difficult time giving birth, hurry!" At that moment, the courtyard suddenly lit up. Many maids and wives hurriedly ran towards the west yard, including Doctor Lu.
This is bad!
Lian Shiya realized that her guess was wrong. She thought that Xiao Niang was secretly giving birth and that no one would care too much about it. Why did so many people suddenly go to the west yard?
"Let's go." Lian Shiya decisively turned around and prepared to leave.
When Doctor Lu came, there was a high chance that their mother's fake pregnancy would be exposed. If someone found out that they were trying to confuse the Lian bloodline and raise a child from the outside, the crime would be much more serious than a fake pregnancy.
"Third Miss …" She had only taken a few steps when she heard a cold voice come from in front of her. She saw the extremely skilled little girl, Green Branch (Cold Eyebrow), standing in front of her. Her body instantly went stiff, and she subconsciously grabbed the basket in her hands.
"Aiya, this is because Third Miss knows that Aunt Xiao is about to give birth, so she's anxious to see you. You're a very filial person, hurry up and go. The Countess, Eldest Miss, are currently waiting in the West Courtyard for Aunt Xiao to give birth. Senior Servant Tai also walked over quickly and said.
"Wait here." Lian Shiya said as she handed the basket over to the orange embroidery.
However, in the instant orange embroidery accepted the basket, Leng Mei's hand reached out to grab it, saying, "Let me carry it."
Lian Shiya clenched the basket tightly and refused to let go. "There's no need. I have a servant girl of my own, so I don't dare to order you around."
Leng Mei looked at her with a cold gaze, and secretly exerted some force under her hand. Lian Shiya's hand was bounced back by a force, and the basket landed in Leng Mei's hand.
"Let's go, Third Miss." Senior Servant Tai said in a loud voice as she led the way.
"Alright …" Lian Shiya slowly followed in the direction of the west yard, but her eyes were tightly staring at the basket in Leng Mei's hand as she thought of a plan to escape in her mind.
At first, when everything went well, why did everything suddenly change? Now, she felt that every step she took was like stepping on the edge of a knife.
"Ah …" Suddenly, she snorted lightly and her body went limp as she fell to the ground.
Before she fell to the ground, Leng Mei had hugged her with one hand and looked at Lian Shiya, whose eyes were tightly shut. She said, "Senior Servant Tai, Third Miss fainted."
"Fainted? "Oh, the needle. I was the one who pricked Aunt Xiao when she fainted earlier. Hurry, get the needle." At this time, when Zhou mama saw the scene before her, she spoke up.
Lian Shiya's heart trembled, but she slowly woke up. "It's alright. I'm just slightly tired, and I walk a bit faster, so I'm not feeling well."
"That's good." Leng Mei released her hand and said.
Lian Shiya secretly clenched her fists as she slowly followed them to the west yard — —
"Madam, eldest miss, the third miss has just returned from the Prime Minister's Estate." Senior Servant Tai bowed as she spoke.
When her mother heard this, she turned around, revealing a puzzled expression. "It's not even dawn yet, why are you here?"
"Sun's daughter knows that her mother and mother are going to give birth soon, so she sent someone to keep an eye on the situation. When she heard the news today, she rushed over." Lian Shiya made up a lie and said.
"…" Even his mother nodded and didn't ask any further.
Lian Shiya slowly raised her head and immediately saw Lian Ruyue. Her gaze instantly made her feel chills from head to toe.
At this time, both the midwives and Doctor Lu were knocking on the door, but Aunt Xiao still hadn't opened it.
Lian Mu frowned and asked, "What is she doing? "She first said that she was going to have a baby, called a midwife, and then said that she shouldn't have a baby, only that she was angry with the baby. Now that she called Doctor Lu to check her pulse and refused to open the door, is she blaming us for mistreating her?"
"Grandmother, don't be angry. Maybe … maybe Auntie Xiao isn't feeling well." Lian Ruyue motioned for Aunt Zhao to bring a chair for her mother to sit on.
Lian Shiya took the opportunity to say, "My mother might be too nervous, but she really values this child in her womb. Grandmother, let me go take a look."
"Go." Lian Luo's mother said with an unsightly expression.
"Yes." Lian Shiya took the basket from Leng Mei's hand. She glanced at Lian Xiyue with her cold brows before slowly releasing her hand. Lian Shiya immediately tightened her grip on the basket.
"Third sister, what's in this basket?" Lian Ruyue suddenly asked.
"That's right, my mother told me to prepare these for her when she was about to give birth. I thought she would produce them today, so I brought them along with me." As Lian Shiya spoke, she held the basket and walked step by step towards the door of Auntie Xiao's room. She raised her hand and began to knock on the door.
"Wait!" Suddenly, Lian Ruyue coldly shouted!
Her voice startled Lian Shiya, causing her hand to loosen and the basket to fall from her hand.
