After a good rest in the afternoon, he looked through some account books with Cui Xi and Cui Lian. Before dinner, the maid who went to Jinhua Hall to inquire about the news came back and said: The Second Master and the Second Mistress brought Lian Jie'er, Shen Ge'er, and Wei Ge'er to have dinner with the old lady. The Sixth Master and the girls were also in Jinhua Hall. Madam Lin and Madam Zhou from the first room went to ask about her well-being, but did not leave any food for her and went back to the courtyard.
You don't have to go to Jinhuatang to greet people every morning and evening, but you still have to inquire about the news. Know yourself and know your enemy. Don't harm others, just be on guard against them.
Bai Zhan replied: Ruixue was indeed taken to the red-light district by the traffickers, and has been secretly bought and sent to Cen's house. Ruixue kowtowed to thank the young lady for her kindness.
The maid who came back from Qiuhua Courtyard said: The eldest aunt is ready to serve the meal.
Meimei stretched lazily, got off the bed and put on her shoes: "Take Heng'er with you to Qiuhua Court to see the lady, and we'll serve you dinner when you come back."
Cui Xi said, "Won't the young lady have dinner with the eldest aunt?"
"Why should I eat with her? When I see her face, I have to eat half a bowl less. And if Heng'er eats there, he has to bring his own bowl. The two kids are fighting over it, making so much noise."
Cui Xi smiled and said, "I have asked around. My eldest aunt used to be a bit stubborn and unyielding when she was at home. The young lady was really tolerant of her and gave her whatever she wanted."
"You didn't give her much, did you?"
"That's how the young lady started. After that, the eldest aunt asked more and more questions, and they became bigger and bigger."
Meimei smiled and said, "Cui Xi, there is always a bottom line, understand? If she crosses my bottom line, I will tolerate her. I let her be as she pleases, but it is also because she is taking care of my wife. My wife is sick, and she cares about her mother. My wife is willing and likes to see her, which is more worthwhile than hiring any best nanny."
Cui Xi was startled: "What is a nanny?"
Meimei lied: "Oh, a nanny is... almost like a doctor."
In Qiuhua Courtyard, dinner was already on the table. Xu Xiaojuan gave way to Meimei, but Meimei just said that she had eaten too much at noon and didn't want to eat yet, so she asked her to eat first. Xu Xiaojuan stood for a while, then unceremoniously brought her son to the table to eat, and asked someone to feed Heng'er some. Heng'er didn't have his own wooden bowl, but he didn't want to eat and stayed in Meimei's arms. The mother and son sat in front of Madam Zheng's bed. Madam Zheng lay on her side, with tears in her eyes, looking at Heng'er lovingly. Meimei made up her mind to leave three times, but finally failed. Looking at the sky outside the window, she decided to take Heng'er away as soon as it got dark, regardless of how Madam Zheng cried. She would bring Heng'er over tomorrow.
After returning to Tsinghua Courtyard, having dinner and bathing, the mother and son played games on the couch. Cui Lian, Cui Si and Xia Lian were joining in the fun, when they saw Cui Xi and Bai Jingyu walk in.
Meimei asked Cuisi and Xia Lian to take Heng'er out to play, while she accompanied Bai Jingyu to sit at the table. Bai Jingyu changed into a moon-white embroidered skirt and jacket, combed her hair into a simple bun, and only wore two strings of pearl flowers in her hair. She did not wear any gold hairpins or hairpins. Two strands of hair hung down from her ears, which was elegant and beautiful, very different from her usual style.
She looked tired and said, "I'm going to Jinhua Hall to pick up Lian'er. By the way, I'm going to personally reply to the old lady, the second master and the second wife. Come over to your side and sit for a while before leaving."
Cui Xi made some tea and Mei Mei handed a cup to Bai Jingyu: "You look tired, drink some tea first and take a rest before we talk."
Bai Jingyu took a sip of tea and sighed: "I'm just telling you quietly: Xiangxue gave birth to a bad child."
Meimei glared at her: What do you mean by “giving birth to a bad child”?
Bai Jingyu said: "He is alive and breathing, but he doesn't cry, make a fuss or move. His whole body is bruised... It's a boy. The Second Master is now lying there, limp. The Second Madam may be anxious, but the Second Master is not anxious or panicked. He insisted that she accompany him to Jinhua Hall for dinner, saying that the matter is not over yet and he is not allowed to report it."
"Are you going to report it?"
"Why not report it? He's a grandson after all."
Bai Jingyu smiled evilly: "When I came back from the East Palace, I urged people to do everything possible to help Xiangxue give birth to the child. As soon as the baby was born, we knew what was going on. We invited several doctors, and asked the second master to invite the imperial physician to see the baby. Everything is clear now. Tomorrow we will teach them to accept their fate."
"What do you mean?"
"I had lost my desire to fight. Second Master was protecting his offspring and was still on guard against me day and night. He thought the two girls were kind and weak, so he kept them in the same courtyard. But he didn't know that he had spoiled Xiangrui for a few days, which made her greedy and bold. She had already tampered with the food. How could she recover after taking the medicine that ate the abortion bit by bit? I don't know what Second Master was thinking a while ago. He came to me every day to ask for reconciliation. The wife was pressuring him, and the eldest sister was crying for her father. I couldn't leave, so I had to reunite with my husband. This time, he was sincere for a few days. He didn't even go to Xiangrui's place when I was little. He stayed in my room. Later, when he brought Wei'er to me, I realized what was going on. "He came and asked me to take Wei'er in as my legitimate son. Naturally, I was not in a hurry to agree. While I was taking care of the affairs of the mansion and the business of the embroidery workshop and cloth shop outside, I was a little curious and went to find out what happened to the two little concubines. Xiangxue was pregnant, why was Second Master reluctant to touch Xiangrui? I bought the maid next to Xiangrui, and then I found out what she had done. Second Master didn't know about it. It's not that I was vicious and didn't want to remind her. The baby was already seven months old at that time, and it would be useless to tell her. Look at these two little hooves. I didn't fight with them, but they started fighting each other. Xiangxue could at least save her life by giving birth to a child, but it's hard to say whether the child can survive in the future and whether she can give birth again."
Meimei was stunned: "What is 'abortion drug'? This is too outrageous. How can there be such a drug?"
Bai Jingyu drank up the tea in the cup in one breath: "You are scared now after hearing this. When I first got some medicine powder to test it, I was also scared to death. Xiangrui, that bitch, must die this time."
"Why didn't you say it at the beginning?"
Bai Jingyu looked at Meimei with cold eyes: "Will it be useful to say it? The doctor who tested the medicine said that as long as a little bit is taken, the fetus will be damaged, but the mother will not die. How long has Xiangxue lived in the same yard with Xiangrui at that time? Even the Jade Emperor could not save her child, let alone me. I just hate these two girls. I let Xiangrui do this. Otherwise, I can't get rid of them."
After Bai Jingyu left, Meimei sat at the table, stunned for a long time, with a chill on her body. In such a dynasty, in such a deep mansion, how many such ugly events were quietly carried out? Just like Qin Meiniang was framed by Zheng Meiyu, it was too terrible.
Xiangrui is hateful, Xiangxue is disgusting, and Bai Jingyu is just shooting herself in the foot. If she hadn't given her personal maid to Xu Junlang as a concubine, how could she be so resentful and vicious today?
Meimei put herself in Bai Jingyu's shoes and tried to imagine whether she could do it. Just to get rid of two love rivals, she watched Xiangrui pour poison into Xiangxue's stomach every day and remained silent for nearly two months.
