She firmly believed it was her fault: "Giving birth is a woman's duty. It is my fault that I cannot have children. How can I blame my mother-in-law?"
"..."
Mrs. Li's brainwashing skills are top-notch; it's a shame she's not involved in pyramid schemes.
Su Yuqiao stopped trying to persuade her. Her sister-in-law had been brainwashed too much to be changed with just a few words.
Fortunately, her mother-in-law wasn't there; if she had listened to what she said, she would have been furious.
Give me your hand, let me take your pulse.
“I came here specifically to help you get better. Your mother-in-law knows this is a major concern for you and is very worried about you.”
Lu Ziwei reached out her hand, crying even more bitterly: "I am so unfilial. I shouldn't have said such harsh words to Mother just now."
"I'll go and kowtow to my mother to apologize in a little while."
"Don't go for now. She's angry right now, and you're so devoted to your husband's family. Don't make things worse for your mother."
Lu Ziwei told her again in a serious tone, "Jiaojiao, believe me, my husband's family really treats me very well."
“And Rong Heng is also a rare good man in the world. I cannot have children, but he not only does not blame me, he also refuses to take a concubine.”
"He said he wouldn't touch other women, he only liked me, and he only wanted to have children with me."
He doesn't care about children born to other women.
“I feel guilty that I cannot have a child with such a good man.”
"..."
"Jiaojiao, what's with that expression? You don't believe me?"
Su Yujiao nodded: "I believe you. You're not stupid; you can tell the difference between good and bad."
"Your brother-in-law must be very good to you for you to treat him like this. It's not easy to find someone you like in this lifetime."
Lu Ziwei smiled sweetly; these words truly touched her heart.
She also felt very lucky to have met someone she liked, and who liked her back.
"Why haven't I seen my brother-in-law? Is he very busy?"
"Yes, he's been on official business these past few days, it seems he went up the mountain to suppress bandits."
Su Yujiao curled her lips, thinking that Li Rongheng was a real scoundrel, and that he had obtained his official position through connections with the General's Mansion.
Now this official position has become his legitimate reason for not going home.
Is my brother-in-law often away on official business?
"Yes, he's not home for half the month out of every month."
Su Yujiao frowned: "Where are there so many bandits for him to wipe out?"
Lu Ziwei had no doubt whatsoever: "Men should prioritize their careers."
“He comes back to be with me whenever something happens, so I can’t be too inconsiderate.”
“He writes to me every day, and every day he says he misses me.”
"There aren't many men who can do what your brother-in-law does."
"I should take good care of this family for him."
“Your brother-in-law is the most filial. Since I can’t have children for him, I’ll try my best to be filial to him.”
Goodness, Wang Baochuan's shopping basket should be given to her.
What are you laughing at?
"It's nothing, I just thought of a story about a woman digging for wild vegetables."
"Tell me the story about digging for wild vegetables."
After hearing this, Lu Ziwei was moved to tears: "There is such a touching love in this world, it is truly enviable."
"Wang Baochuan was too devoted to love. She waited patiently in the cold cave for eighteen years, and finally the clouds parted and the moon shone through."
"Xue Pinggui is also a kind and righteous man, willing to make her empress and grant her a lifetime of glory."
"Such love is truly enviable."
"..."
"She was empress for only eighteen days, and suffered her whole life. Do you think it was worth it?"
"She was originally the daughter of the Prime Minister's family, and could have lived a life of wealth and honor."
Lu Ziwei thought for a moment and said, "Whether it's worth it or not is not up to me to decide. After all, that's not my life. If she thinks it's worth it, then it is."
"If it were you, would you also give up everything to pursue love?"
I thought she would hesitate, but to my surprise, Lu Ziwei shook her head without thinking: "I won't. Eighteen years? I can't endure that kind of hardship or loneliness."
Su Yujiao breathed a sigh of relief; there was still hope!
I'm really afraid she might also be a concubine of Wang Baochuan!
"How was the diagnosis? What exactly is wrong with my body? Why can't I keep saving it?"
"There's nothing wrong with your body."
Lu Ziwei frowned, clearly not believing her: "Are you sure there's nothing wrong? Then why do you keep miscarrying?"
"Moreover, I consulted many doctors, including some renowned imperial physicians. They all said that I had some problems, such as qi deficiency or blood deficiency. Some even said that I had a congenital illness."
"You keep having miscarriages for no reason, which is clearly abnormal. If the doctors don't point out something wrong, wouldn't they seem useless?"
"As for qi deficiency and blood deficiency, any doctor would say the same thing, after all, it's a universal answer that can't be wrong."
Lu Ziwei was still skeptical: "Jiaojiao, are you sure you can handle this medical skill?"
"You only read a few medical books when you were a child."
Su Yujiao was not annoyed by the questioning of her medical skills. Instead, she smiled and said, "Who are you looking down on? Do you think I can't be self-taught?"
“If my medical skills were not good, Mother wouldn’t have brought me here specifically.”
"I controlled both of these plague outbreaks, and I am now a county princess bestowed by the Emperor."
"How could something like this be false? If you don't believe me, go ask your mother."
Lu Ziwei couldn't help but get excited: "Jiaojiao, you're getting more and more amazing."
"How are things between you and Ziqian? Is he still indifferent to you?"
"If he bullies you, tell me and I'll go back and teach him a lesson."
Su Yujiao's expression changed slightly, clearly indicating that she didn't want to mention Lu Ziqian.
"Don't meddle in my business, take care of yourself first."
“You have frequent miscarriages, and I suspect it’s caused by human intervention rather than by your physical condition.”
Lu Ziwei's face paled, and she asked in surprise, "You suspect someone drugged me?"
"Um."
"No way, who would do that?"
"Rong Heng has no concubines, not even maids. I get along well with everyone in the Li family and have no grudges against them. Who would want to harm me?"
"Actually, I did have my doubts, but I quickly dismissed them."
Su Yujiao asked, "When was the last time you and your brother-in-law slept together?"
"About two weeks ago, he had been gone for two weeks. We shared a room before he left."
Why are you asking this?
Su Yujiao whispered in her ear, "Just tell her you're pregnant, and I'll help you find the person who harmed you."
Will this work?
"What if my mother-in-law invites another doctor to diagnose the problem? Wouldn't that give us away?"
"Besides, who would want to harm me?"
Su Yujiao said confidently, "I'm here, you won't be exposed. I can make you show signs of a false pregnancy."
As the saying goes, one should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others.
"Perhaps your unintentional mistake offended some petty people, but you just don't know it."
"I have something to tell you, just listen to it and don't go around telling everyone."
"What's up?"
