Chapter 118 The Poison
The two old women who went to get the herbs came back.
There was a maidservant beside her.
That was the one who served Shen Zhirou.
After seeing Rong'er, the maid's face immediately turned ugly.
Rong'er was not in a good mood either. She snorted at her and turned her head away.
The two maids walked over to Madam Zhao and handed her the medicine bag. The maid walked over to Sister Li and asked, "Sister-in-law, is my aunt's egg custard ready?"
Sister Li took the time to reply, "Okay, okay, it's on the chopping board next to the steamer. You've arrived just in time, young lady. It's just been taken out a while ago and is still tender. Auntie, please fill your stomach first. The meal will be ready soon, young lady, you can come and take it as usual."
The maid responded and walked to the chopping board, picked up the egg custard, and left without even looking at Rong'er.
Rong Er snorted, "She's so precious! The meal will be ready soon, but she insists on eating something else first. Even Second Madam wouldn't do that."
Aunt Zhao sighed, "Aunt, please stop talking. The medicine for the Second Master is here too. Hurry and boil it."
Knowing that Pei Ji's medicine was traditional Chinese medicine, Rong'er said nothing more and focused on making the medicine.
Zhao Ma Ma looked at it for a while and said, "Since Auntie has gotten the hang of it, I'll go back first. Second Madam still has things for me to do."
Rong'er responded, "Mammy, go ahead."
Nanny Zhao said hello to the people in the kitchen again, then calmly retreated and returned to Luo Zhen's yard.
Luo Zhen sat outside waiting. When she saw her return, she dismissed the maid. They walked into the inner room together, closing the doors and windows. Luo Zhen couldn't wait to whisper, "How is it going? Is it done?"
Nanny Zhao nodded and told her what happened in the kitchen.
"It finally worked!"
Luo Zhen was overjoyed. He sat down on the table and said with a sinister look in his eyes, "Then wait for good news."
In Shen Zhirou's yard.
The maidservant was advising, "Auntie, please eat a little. Even if you don't think about yourself, at least think about the young master in your belly. You haven't been eating much lately and haven't been sleeping well. If something happens to the young master, it will just play into that bitch's hands. The eldest wife will be very proud too."
Ever since Pei Ji was taken away by Rong'er, Shen Zhirou has been lying on the bed after smashing the pillow, staring at the ceiling of the tent, not saying a word or moving.
The maid's words of advice made her eyes move. She propped herself up and sat up. She took the egg custard from the maid's hand, took a few big bites, then suddenly stuffed the bowl into the maid's hand and turned her head to vomit.
I vomited out the egg custard I had just eaten.
The maid hurriedly brought over a teacup and fed her the tea while helping her to calm down. "Auntie, you're having morning sickness. How about you eat the egg custard later?"
Chen Zhirou shook her head and panted, "Give it to me! You're right, I can't let those bitches get away with it. I have to take good care of myself and give birth to the young master safely. Once I have a child, my cousin will come to me just for the sake of the child!"
She was sulking, and had some self-deceiving paranoia, but being able to eat was always better than not eating.
The maid sighed in her heart, put the teacup back on the table, took the egg custard and handed it to Shen Zhirou, watching her eat it bite by bite.
"Auntie, do you want to get out of bed and walk around? The meal will be ready soon, and you should eat more."
The maid put away the bowl and asked.
Shen Zhirou nodded, got off the bed, and when she reached the bedroom door, she suddenly covered her chest and hunched her back.
The maid was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly supported her and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Zhirou didn't say anything, but just moaned in pain. Her body became heavier and heavier. The maid couldn't support her by herself, so she held her and sat on the ground. Only then did she realize that blood was constantly flowing out of Shen Zhirou's mouth.
