After 8 Years of Widowhood, The Marquis's Wife Demands a Divorce

On the eve of her wedding, an urgent report arrived from the border, and the Marquis of Pingyang led his army to battle. To show appreciation and importance, the Crown Prince personally officiated ...

Chapter 205 Wu Ziya has a stomachache

Miss Qian Liu spoke even more bluntly: "Why are you two looking like that? If someone didn't know, they'd think we were bullying you. You're crying and not crying, you're acting like little sissies."

Lu Lingrui was so angry that she burst into tears, with big tears falling down her face.

Lu Lingjiao's face was filled with rage, and with her makeup on, she looked both angry and resentful from a distance. When several young masters saw them from afar, they actually thought that the two young ladies of the Qian family had done something to them.

The Marquis of Chang'an immediately stepped forward and lectured his two daughters: "Be careful with your words! Is this how you treat guests when they come to your house?"

Fourth Miss Qian stamped her feet in anger. "I didn't bully them. They were the ones acting so hypocritically. How could it be my fault? They scolded me?"

Miss Qian Liu also said, "I didn't even say anything, and she started crying. Look, look, look, is there anything she can say?"

Wei winked at the nanny beside her and asked someone to take the two daughters away. She pulled Bai Wanyi aside and apologized, "I'm sorry, I spoiled these two children."

Although Bai Wanyi was unhappy in his heart, he did not show it on his face: "The two young ladies are outspoken and have good temperaments."

Lu Linglin advised her two younger sisters from behind: "Stop crying and go put on some makeup."

However, Lu Lingjiao and Lu Lingrui did not appreciate her kindness.

Lu Lingjiao even shook her hand off, glaring at her with red eyes: "You knew this was going to happen, right? That's why you changed your makeup to watch us make a fool of ourselves?"

Lu Linglin said helplessly: "Don't you think it looks good? Okay, okay, don't cry anymore."

Lu Lingjiao couldn't argue with her, so she stomped her feet in anger, turned around and pulled Lu Lingrui to touch up her makeup.

Now that I was out and about, I didn't have all the rouge and powder I brought with me, so I couldn't change the makeup I had already done. I could only slightly erase the shadows on my cheeks to make the color look less heavy, and then I stopped.

Lu Lingrui wanted to wipe some off but didn't dare. She didn't do it well herself, and she didn't dare to ask Bai Wanyi for help. She was so anxious that she burst into tears.

She already had a tearful look on her face and her personality was delicate, so she was about to cry out of anxiety.

The young masters watching from afar felt itchy in their hearts. Such a woman was not suitable to be married as a wife, but it would be good to keep her as a concubine.

Bai Wanyi didn't take the three people's affairs to heart. When they returned to her, she just asked a question or two and then joined in chatting and laughing with everyone.

Since Lu Linglin and the others' makeup had no sales effect on their products, Bai Wanyi didn't need them around anymore. She just stayed with Wei, carrying a beautiful backpack, always on the lookout for anyone whose makeup was smudged, helping them touch up their makeup and introducing her own products.

Lu Linglin looked at Bai Wanyi, the marquis' wife, who was serving people diligently like a maid, and sighed softly.

Fortunately, these ladies are not focused on Bai Wanyi, but many of them are interested in her.

The ladies looked down on Lu Lingjiao and Lu Lingrui's delicate behavior, but were quite interested in Lu Linglin, who had just gently coaxed her sister.

If such a sensible and knowledgeable woman is paired with one's legitimate son, the son will dislike her background and lack of education. However, if she is paired with one's illegitimate son, she can restrain and persuade him to not act recklessly and live a good life in the future. That would be the perfect match.

As for the troublesome sisters, they can be ignored. After marriage, let her distance herself from her sisters at home and only be close to Marquis Pingyang and Madam Yu.

The ladies have their own plans, but the young masters also have their own preferences.

What the ladies don't like, they like very much.

Lu Linglin carefully answered the ladies' questions, but she couldn't see Lu Lingjiao and Lu Lingrui. She felt a little worried and asked again, "I wonder if Auntie has seen my sister?"

The lady was extremely satisfied to see that she still remembered to care about her younger sister. Sisters share the same fate. She had this kind of heart and this insight, and that was enough. She patted Lu Linglin's hand and said, "Don't worry, I just saw that the young ladies went out to play together."

Lu Linglin finally felt relieved and gave the lady a gentle and dignified smile that was just right for her.

The flower viewing banquet at the Chang'an Marquis Mansion was lively and lively, at the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

Wu Ziya had just finished lunch.

She wasn't feeling well today, so the kitchen didn't dare let her eat seafood. They only made her a bowl of hot chicken noodle soup with a few refreshing side dishes.

Wu Ziya complained that the food was not tasty enough, so the cook had to serve another dish of cold fish skin. It was only a small plate, and it took only two or three chopsticks. She got angry, but reluctantly ate a little.

After the meal, Wu Ziya felt more uncomfortable in her stomach. She frowned, but did not dare to delay and quickly asked someone to call a doctor.

In the blink of an eye, the stomachache became more severe. Wu Ziya's face changed and she kept calling out, "Nurse! Quick! Call the doctor!"

The nurse saw beads of sweat on her forehead and her expression changed: "I've already sent someone to call her. Just bear with it for a while."

The wet nurse coaxed Wu Ziya, but seeing that she looked really bad, she did not dare to neglect her and hurriedly asked someone to call the old lady over.

Who knew that Old Madam Lu was not in the mansion. Qi Jing heard the noise in the side room, and it was not easy for her to pretend to be blind, so she asked someone to find Second Aunt Lu and Third Aunt Lu to keep an eye on the matter, and then sent the three of them out of the mansion.

One person went to look for Old Madam Lu, one went to look for Bai Wanyi, and another went to the Wu family to invite Mrs. Wu over.

After giving all the instructions, Qi Jing headed towards the main courtyard with her big belly.

Her maidservant didn't understand: "You are pregnant, aren't you afraid of being bumped into by going over like this?"

Qi Jing touched her belly and sighed, "It's not easy for a woman to get pregnant. Besides, I'm already in the old lady's yard. If it were my own yard, I could pretend I didn't know. People have come looking for me, and even if they're not looking for me, I can't just sit back and watch. Not to mention that I'll be criticized, and I won't feel comfortable. I'll just consider it a good deed."

After saying that, Qi Jing looked towards the main courtyard with some worry, hoping that Wu Ziya could keep this baby. Otherwise, if the two of them got pregnant at the same time, the mistress would lose her child while her child would be fine, and her life would be difficult in the future.

Qi Jing was pregnant and walked slowly. When she arrived, Second Aunt Lu and Third Aunt Lu were already sitting in the hall.

Second Aunt Lu saw Qi Jing struggling to come over, holding her belly, and quickly asked someone to support her: "What are you doing here? There's so much going on here, don't let anyone bump into you."

Qi Jing's face turned pale, and it was unclear whether she was frightened or tired. "I was also worried, so I came to see Madam."

Second Aunt Lu patted her hands and said, "You've always been a sensible person. Don't make things more complicated now. How about this? Go wait in the corridor over there."

Second Aunt Lu pointed to a shady place under the corridor, and ordered someone to move a beauty couch over for her to lie on. After making sure she was safe there, she went back to her work.

Mrs. Wu took the doctor in a carriage and went straight to the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion. The carriage could not pass through the second gate, so she dragged the doctor all the way into the main courtyard. When they entered the main gate, they saw the wet nurse coming out of the inner room with two bloody hands raised.

When Mrs. Wu saw the blood, she staggered and quickly held the maid's hand to steady herself. In the inner room, the maid brought out basins of blood. She didn't dare to look at the basins, and her eyes fell on the wet nurse's hands. She saw something seemed to be moving on her bloody fingertips.

"ah!"

Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes, screamed and fainted.
