Chapter 69 The truth behind Feng Chatou's illness
Seeing this, Chen Fang hurriedly supported her with concern.
"Siting, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Siting only felt a warm current flowing out. It was the stomach acid she couldn't help but vomit out because her stomach was empty. When it fell to the ground, it splashed on the hem of Chen Fang's clothes.
Chen Siyu smelled the unpleasant odor and quickly stepped aside, continuing to eat the bun in her hand.
After vomiting for a long time, Chen Siting finally came to her senses and leaned weakly on Chen Fangshi.
"Mom, I feel so bad..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fang hurriedly spoke.
"Are you starving? Eat something quickly."
As soon as Chen Siting took the bun and put it to her mouth, the feeling of nausea came back.
"vomit…………"
"Mom, no, this smell makes me want to vomit when I get close to it."
Chen Fang was an experienced person after all, and a hint of joy soon appeared on her face.
"Siting, did you miss your period this month?"
Chen Siting blushed and spoke softly when she heard this.
"No, there were so many things that happened along the way that I didn't pay attention."
Chen Fang grabbed her arm excitedly.
"Quick, think about when you came last month."
Chen Siting was stunned for a moment when she heard this, but then she reacted.
"Mother, it's the sixth day of the month. It's already the eleventh day of the month."
Chen Fang smiled when she heard this.
"That's great, that's great, Siting, we've finally made it. You're truly a good daughter to me. I'll be counting on you from now on."
Chen Siting also felt happy.
"Mother, you mean I......"
Chen Fang leaned close to her ear.
"No doubt about it. I had the same reaction when I was pregnant with you two sisters. You are pregnant with the Crown Prince's flesh and blood."
Chen Siting's face lit up with joy when she heard that.
She gently touched her belly which had not yet bulged. It was great. This child came at the right time. She would be able to leave here soon with the honor of having a child.
Seeing this, Chen Siyu swallowed the last bite of the bun in her mouth, with a hint of envy in her eyes. She hadn't gotten pregnant yet. She reached out and touched her half-lost ear. She felt even more lonely. Now she had scars on her face and her ear was missing. She was a cripple and would never have a chance to turn over.
Chen Siting was very sensitive and quickly noticed that Chen Siyu was unhappy.
Na moved to her side and held her hand.
"Sister, our chance has come. Aren't you happy?"
Chen Siyu lowered her head.
"It's your chance, not mine."
Chen Siting continued to hold her hand.
"But we are sisters, sister. No matter which of us has a child, this is a chance for our Chen family to turn things around. Can I really abandon you and mother?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyu looked up at Chen Siting.
"Yes, we are sisters, Siting, you must take me away. I really don't want to live like this anymore."
Chen Siting spoke affirmatively after hearing this.
"Yes, we are sisters, sisters from the same mother. Don't worry, sister. If I can leave, I will definitely take you and mother with me."
Chen Fang spoke from the side.
"Siting, since the Crown Prince promised to take you away, the person who is supposed to pick you up should have appeared by now. However, we are now in town and there is no hope at all."
Chen Siting spoke thoughtfully after hearing this.
"Maybe we were delayed for two days due to the snow. Since the Crown Prince said it himself, he shouldn't go back on his word. If he forgot, then he would help the Chen family if we have this child. Now we have to find a way to tell the Crown Prince about my pregnancy."
Chen Fang looked worried when she heard this.
"But how are we going to get this information to the Imperial City in our current situation? We don't have any extra money to do it."
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyu's brain started working rapidly, a calculation flashed in her eyes, and she lowered her voice and whispered in Chen Fang's ear.
"Mother, the Chen family has many daughters besides my sister and me. Send a concubine's daughter to Ning Chatou and ask him to help us deliver a letter to the Crown Prince.
Besides, since the Crown Prince asked me to do such a thing, he must want to know the result. There might be people arranged by him among these escorts or exiles. At the very least, there might be people of his in the post station or town to gather information.
Mother, you should start spreading the news that your daughter is pregnant with the Crown Prince's child. As long as the Crown Prince's people find out the news, the news of my pregnancy will also reach him.
The royal family has always valued offspring, not to mention that the Crown Prince only has one son. He will definitely value the child in my belly no matter what."
Chen Fang nodded slightly upon hearing this.
"I'll go talk to your father."
At this time, Chen Wenlin put all of Old Madam Chen's clothes on her body, and bandaged Old Madam Chen's forehead, but she was unconscious. He asked the medicine boy in the clinic to help decoct the medicine for today, and he had to find a way to decoct medicine for the old lady tomorrow.
Chen Fang came over and whispered with Chen Wenlin.
Chen Wenlin looked at Chen Siting, then at Old Madam Chen, and finally agreed to Chen Fang's proposal.
That night, Chen Wenlin's concubine's daughter Chen Sipan went to Ning Chatou's room.
After Chen Fang's boasting, the entire Chen family knew that Chen Siting was pregnant with the emperor's eldest grandson's child. This also gave the Chen family hope that as long as the Chen family could get close to the Prince's Mansion, they could naturally return to the imperial city and continue to live the noble life they had before.
And at this time in Jun's room.
Su Hanchu and Jun Moye were lying on the bed, while the others slept on the floor. Because they had given enough silver, the waiter gave a few quilts to the Jun and Su families. Together with what they already had, it was barely enough for everyone to sleep on the floor and have quilts to cover themselves.
Jun Moye looked around and saw that everyone was asleep, then he hugged Su Hanchu in his arms and whispered into her ear.
"You shouldn't take that medicine, right?"
Su Hanchu naturally understood that he was talking about Feng Chatou's medicine, so he leaned closer to his arms, held his hand and wrote a couplet.
Seeing how careful she was, Jun Moye looked at Li and others in the room and saw that they were already snoring, so he pulled the quilt over them to hide them in the bed.
"Don't worry, everyone is asleep."
Upon hearing this, Su Hanchu leaned over and whispered in Jun Moye's ear.
"If he hadn't taken the medicine and endured for another two days, he would have recovered. But he took the medicine, and it had side effects. He's not stupid, but his body has been damaged. In this kind of weather, a few more illnesses would be enough to kill him."
Jun Moye's eyes were full of curiosity when he heard this.
"What on earth did you give him?"
Su Hanchu explained in a low voice.
"A potion that looked like he had caught a cold, but it wasn't. Plus, the medicine we drank that day contained a drug that counteracted the potion, which naturally accelerated his condition."
After hearing this, Jun Moye's doubts were resolved. At the same time, he also felt that his wife was a very capable person who could take someone's life without making any noise.
"Do you have any more of that potion? I'll give it to the Chen family..."
