Chapter 107
Yunxi ate happily, her eyes crinkling into crescents.
She had barely taken a few bites when Jingyuan came over carrying a delicate little teapot.
The tea soup is golden and greenish-yellow, and a rich tea aroma wafts out. Pairing this tea with crab roe pastry enhances the flavor even more.
Yunxi ate happily, but Shen Rang looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.
This question has been weighing on his mind for the past few days.
Although he felt that making Yunxi a concubine was unfair to her, looking at where she was living now and how Yunwan treated her so often, it seemed that becoming a concubine was actually for her own good.
He had been wanting to find an opportunity to ask Yunxi what she thought, but he hadn't been able to find the chance.
The opportunity has come, but for some reason, Shen Rang can't bring himself to ask.
While she was pondering, Yunxi had already finished eating the crab roe pastry and was now leaning back in her chair, seemingly savoring the memory.
Like a cat.
Shen Rang took a deep breath, but the words that were on the tip of his tongue remained unspoken.
He tidied up the food box and teapot, then turned and left.
Watching his retreating figure, Yunxi felt uneasy.
Something seems off about Chen Rang today...
She wasn't just focused on eating; she also noticed Shen Rang's hesitant expression.
What could it be about...?

Meanwhile, Yunwan left Rongxi Hall and did not return to Liuyun Garden. Instead, she had someone prepare a carriage and went to Yiyuan Hall.
She spent a lot of money to buy medicine from Yiyuantang, but after so much time, Yunxi's belly showed no signs of pregnancy. She had been wanting to ask what was going on for a long time.
The manager of Yiyuantang recognized Yun Wan and led her directly to a private room, ordering fine tea and snacks to be served: "Madam Chen, did you bring good news this time?"
Yun Wan sneered, "Good news? I've been taking your medicine for quite some time now, but there's been no sign of pregnancy. I've come here to demand an explanation!"
"Not a sound at all?" The steward's expression changed. "How is that possible? Is Madam sure she takes our Yiyuantang medicine after each time?"
"Is it even possible that it's fake?"
Jixiang has been by Madam Yun's side for many years, and Madam Yun still holds her mother's life in her hands. She would never dare to do anything underhanded. Yun Wan was confident in this.
"That's strange. Would it be convenient for you, Madam, to have us take your pulse and see what the problem is?"
Upon hearing their pulses, both Yun Wan and Zhen Zhu's expressions changed.
Yun Wan's body is abnormal, and her pulse is also different from that of ordinary people. If outsiders knew that she was suffering from a strange disease and could not have children, what would happen?
"It's inconvenient!" Yun Wan said without thinking. "Anyway, I've been following what you said last time, taking it after each time. It would be understandable if I couldn't get pregnant after one or two times, but it's been so long and there's still no sign of it. Is this normal?"
"this......"
The manager frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "Madam, our Yiyuantang brand is renowned in the capital. The prescriptions are absolutely genuine. If you say you take it after every encounter, can you confirm that you are taking our Yiyuantang prescriptions?"
"They are both medicines, and most people can't tell the difference between them. Madam, why don't you bring the dregs of the medicine over next time you make a move so we can take a look? If it really is a problem with our prescription, I can promise on behalf of Yiyuantang that we will refund all the previous money and send someone to take care of Madam's health until she gives birth safely. What do you say?"
Yun Wan's eyes flashed.
This is a really good offer.
"It's settled then."
