The Liu family members were all stunned.
If Qiao Xinhua is really pregnant, what should be done?
However, in such cases, it's necessary to first determine whether it's true or false.
Lord Liu said, "Go and fetch a doctor to examine your pulse."
The neighboring family was also an official family, and the whole family came out to watch the commotion. The lady of the house said, "There's no need for such trouble. Let our family doctor take a look."
An old man stepped forward, placed a handkerchief on Qiao Xinhua's wrist, and took her pulse.
Qiao Xinhua did not resist.
"It seems to be a pregnancy."
The Liu family members exchanged glances, their feelings complicated. The eldest son of the Liu family had some congenital deficiencies, and the doctor had previously said that getting pregnant would not be an easy thing.
If she becomes pregnant, then we must pay a huge price to save Qiao Xinhua.
This was also what Qiao Xinhua was thinking.
Although it was an assassination attempt, it was unsuccessful. It was a big deal, but also a small one. There is still room for maneuver, as long as the Liu family is willing to fight for it.
"I'm pregnant, and you want to divorce me, leave me to wander the streets, and let your Liu family's child die in the womb?" Qiao Xinhua laughed.
This game is in the bag.
Once she's ready, she can also avenge the Qiao family.
As she spoke, she shook off the doctor's hand.
"This—Master, what should we do?" Madam Liu was at a loss.
Master Liu also frowned, and was about to plead for leniency.
The doctor said, "I'm not quite sure. Please allow me to examine you properly, young mistress."
It does seem like she's pregnant, but upon closer inspection, something doesn't quite seem right.
Qiao Xinhua's expression changed: "Since you have already made a diagnosis, why do you need to make another diagnosis? Are you a quack doctor who is swindling people and doesn't even have confidence in your own medical skills?"
"Shut up!" Madam Liu scolded. "After all, some people are good at lying, and they can lie without batting an eye. Of course, we have to be careful."
"Hold her down."
Qiao Xinhua was immediately pinned down, not given any room to move.
The family doctor next door placed his hand on her pulse again, closed his eyes, and focused his mind.
The Liu family was on tenterhooks, unsure whether to hope it was true or false.
Qiao Xinhua's eyes darted around anxiously. She could only hope that the doctor was incompetent; her methods were enough to fool the unskilled doctor.
"The young mistress has likely taken a drug that makes people believe they are pregnant, so her symptoms resemble pregnancy, but she is not actually pregnant." After a while, the doctor gave his final diagnosis.
Master Liu's face was even darker than the bottom of a pot.
"There should be no objection to this result, right?"
"I have been practicing medicine for thirty years and I am quite certain. If you don't believe me, Master Liu, you can have another experienced doctor take a look and you will know."
Master Liu took a deep breath: "Chen'er, write it down. Once it's done, hand it over to the Pei family and the county magistrate."
The last glimmer of light in Young Master Liu's eyes was completely extinguished. This woman really would stop at nothing to deceive people.
What kind of illusions is he harboring?
Madam Liu wore a cold smile, but she didn't even want to curse anymore; this was a reaction that people would have when they were speechless to the extreme.
