Liu Yaozhen shook her head. "What letter? I haven't received it. Did Cui Qiong write me a letter? Why didn't she send it with the letter from my husband? I'll ask someone at the post station later."
Seeing that she kept calling him "husband", Wei Min couldn't help feeling complicated. When Cui Qiong wrote to her, she did it secretly for fear that her brother would find out. Could it be that Cui Er had intercepted the letter?
After the Cui family's affairs spread, Wei Min could more or less guess what was written in Cui Qiong's letter. Cui Qiong said at the beginning that her second brother would not survive, but she saw that Cui Er was doing very well, as he took the prostitute from the Red Tower as a concubine and broke off the engagement. Cui Qiong must have known that the prostitute from the Red Tower was pregnant with her second brother's child, and wanted to secretly write a letter to tell Liu Yaozhen. Otherwise, why would Cui Er ask people to keep an eye on Cui Qiong, so that Cui Qiong had to secretly entrust a letter to her.
It seems that Liu Ci Fu had not had time to write a letter to tell Liu Yaozhen when he came to divorce, or he did not know how to tell his daughter such a dirty thing.
Thinking of this, Wei Min felt a sense of solidarity. Seeing that Liu Yaozhen was still in the dark, she said, "Sister Yaozhen, Cui Mubai took a prostitute from the Red Mansion as his concubine while you were away in the capital. I heard that the prostitute is pregnant with his child and has been taken to Cui's mansion. Cui Qiong's letter should have been intended to tell you about this, but Cui Er has been having people keep an eye on her, so I guess someone blocked the letter."
The handkerchief in Liu Yaozhen's hand fell to the ground, and it sounded like thunder exploding in her ears. She thought she had heard it wrong, but Wei Min's voice continued.
"Uncle Liu was furious when he heard about this, and he came to your house to seek justice for you. But I heard that Cui Mubai insisted on marrying that prostitute, and even said he wanted to divorce her. On the day when the Cui family brought her in, Uncle Liu came to your house to help you get a divorce. Shen Wan heard from her father that Uncle Liu had to put in a lot of thought to force the Cui family to agree to a divorce instead of a divorce."
Liu Yaozhen's face turned pale, she was in complete disbelief, her body was staggering, but Wei Min's words were so certain, every word he said was like needles piercing her limbs.
Wei Min was still chattering, "That Cui Mubai is really a piece of shit. He used to pretend to be in love with you, but secretly he had an affair with the prostitute in the Red Mansion. Just because the prostitute was pregnant, he would rather divorce his wife and bring her home. Even though he is Yao Yu's second brother, I have to say that it is really shameful. Sister Yao Zhen, it's better to see his true face and don't be too sad..."
Before Wei Min finished speaking, she saw Liu Yaozhen's body soften. She quickly reached out to take it and said anxiously, "Someone, come quickly!"
The maid rushed forward, and several people hurriedly carried Liu Yaozhen to the bed. Liu Yaozhen's maid left a sentence, "Our young lady is pregnant!" and hurriedly ran to the front yard to ask someone to call a doctor.
When Mrs. Liu, Huo Guizhi, heard that Liu Yaozhen had fainted, she asked someone to call a doctor, and asked Liu Huo to go to the farm to find Yu Jiao. Yu Jiao had been taking care of Liu Yaozhen since she became pregnant.
Huo Guizhi brought her maid to the backyard to see Liu Yaozhen. She was extremely anxious, but she was not a doctor, so she could only wait for the doctor to come, pacing back and forth in the room worriedly.
When Liu Yaozhen's personal maid told her that she was pregnant, Wei Min knew she had gotten into big trouble. She shouldn't have been so outspoken and told everything as soon as they met. She didn't know the limits and ended up making a big mistake.
If anything happened to Liu Yaozhen, she...she would become a sinner.
Wei Min felt regretful and guilty. In her agony, Huo Guizhi had already found out from the servants why Liu Yaozhen fainted. She looked at Wei Min with complicated eyes. When she heard that she was Liu Yaoyu's childhood friend and had just arrived at Pingliang Mansion today, she did not blame her. Instead, she asked the servants to clean up the room and take Wei Min downstairs to rest first.
The servant invited a doctor from the city. After giving Liu Yaozhen an acupuncture injection, the doctor prescribed a tranquilizer. Liu Yaozhen slowly woke up and saw Huo Guizhi standing at the head of the bed. Liu Yaozhen looked dazed. She had just had a dream. She dreamed that Wei Min came to Pingliang Prefecture and said some ridiculous things.
After hearing that Liu Yaozhen had woken up, Wei Min hurried over to see her. With red eyes, she came to the bedside and said apologetically, "Sister Yaozhen, I didn't know you were pregnant. I'm sorry..."
Liu Yaozhen looked at her, her eyes dimmed little by little, then tears appeared in them. She forced herself to sit up, looked at Wei Min, and didn't speak for a long time.
Wei Min stood in front of the bed, at a loss, like a child who knew he had made a mistake, feeling uneasy and not knowing what to do.
Seeing this, Huo Guizhi sighed and said to Wei Min, "You've been exhausted from the journey, you should go and rest first."
Wei Min looked at Liu Yaozhen apologetically and had no choice but to leave.
At this moment, Liu Yaozhen called her, "Sister Wei, is everything you said true?" Although Liu Yaozhen's voice was trembling, it tried her best to restrain herself.
Wei Min turned around, not knowing how to answer for a moment. After a long while, she stammered, "Sister Yaozhen, you should take good care of yourself first..."
Liu Yaozhen sat on the bed, trembling all over. She understood why Wei Min could make up such a thing to deceive her, but she just couldn't believe that Cui Mubai would do such a thing.
How could Mu Bai take a concubine while she was away from Beijing? And even go to the extent of divorcing his wife? If he wanted to take a concubine, she would not refuse even if she was sad.
If he did it because of the child, she is pregnant now and they have a child.
No, she had to go back to Beijing immediately and tell Mu Bai that she was pregnant and that they had a child.
Liu Yaozhen seemed to wake up all of a sudden. She threw off the quilt and got out of bed, saying to the maid, "Pack your luggage, and we'll go back to the capital today."
Huo Guizhi couldn't bear watching from the side. She had heard about this from Madam Liu a few days ago. Madam Liu planned to find an excuse to stay in Pingliang Prefecture until Liu Yaozhen gave birth to the child before returning to Beijing. By then, no matter how sad Liu Yaozhen was, she would make herself feel better for the sake of her child.
But man proposes, God disposes. Who would have thought that Miss Wei would come from the capital to find Yao Yu and expose the matter.
"Yaozhen, even if you want to go back to Beijing, you can't leave in a moment. Huo'er has gone to the farm to pick up your mother and the others. If there is anything, you should wait until your mother and sisters come back to discuss it." Huo Guizhi held Liu Yaozhen's hand and touched her head. "Good child, you are a twin now. You have to take good care of yourself for the sake of the baby in your belly."
Liu Yaozhen smiled at Huo Guizhi and said, "Aunt, I'm fine."
"Mu Bai and I are husband and wife. No one knows who Mu Bai is better than me." Liu Yaozhen let go of Huo Guizhi's hand, touched her belly and said confidently, "There must be some misunderstanding. I have to go back to the capital. Everything will be fine when I get back. He doesn't know I'm pregnant yet! I originally wanted to tell him when I got back to the capital to give him a surprise. Now it's all my fault. I should have written to him earlier. Being pregnant is a big deal, but I was so ignorant that I didn't tell him. Aunt, I'm going back to the yard first. I have to pack up the small clothes I made for the child. I can't forget them."
Huo Guizhi felt distressed when she heard this, but she couldn't stop her, so she could only let Liu Yaozhen take her maid back to her yard to pack her luggage.
