Hehe, Mommy, my goddess!
Lin Wanwan stood on the ground, pinched the chick's tail, and lifted it up.
Ye Lanyin smiled and bent down to stroke Lin Wanwan's little face, unable to resist pinching it.
"whee…"
Not long after Hua Mei left, Hua Xin came in panting from the doorway.
She patted her chest and swallowed hard.
"Madam, I have heard that a maid in the Princess's residence was beaten to death today."
"Really?" Ye Lanyin asked nervously, "Is it real?"
"Um."
“This servant waited at the back gate of the princess’s residence. The maid was wrapped in a cloth bag and left through the back gate.”
Good riddance.
[If that maid doesn't die, then the eldest princess will...]
[The prince consort was given up without a second thought, and the eldest son was also given up without a second thought...]
[Tsk tsk...]
Ye Lanyin shuddered a few times in fear, thankfully she reminded Xi'er.
Not long after the Marquis of Zhenbei attended court, he returned from outside.
Yesterday, Ye Lanyin said that he must ask Zou Shuang'er about seeing the midwife.
He didn't even take off his official robes before heading straight to Zou Shuang'er's courtyard.
When he saw Zou Shuang'er lying unconscious on the bed, he almost collapsed.
"Shuang'er, what's wrong?"
When Zou Shuang'er saw that the Marquis of Zhenbei had finally arrived, she rushed into his arms.
"Waaah, Dad, you're finally back! If you hadn't come back, we would have been beaten to death."

Zou Wanqing said through tears:
“Today, Mother has a fever. I couldn’t get your help or my grandmother’s help. I was heartbroken and have been taking care of Mother.”
"Not long after, Liu Ruyan stormed in with her maid and pulled my mother off the bed. I protected my mother, but she kicked me in anger."
"Mother told her that she was her stepmother. In a fit of anger, Liu Ruyan had her personal maid slap Mother. Mother couldn't take it and fainted."
After Zou Wanqing finished speaking, she threw herself into the arms of the Marquis of Zhenbei.
The Marquis of Zhenbei was heartbroken. She pulled Zou Wanqing away and gritted her teeth, asking, "Where did she kick you?"
Zou Wanqing then pulled up her skirt, revealing a large red and swollen patch on it.
"Father, I really don't want to stay here anymore. I'm bullied every day, and you don't come often."
"Now Mother has been beaten black and blue, and we are almost unable to survive..."
