The dark green round jade pendant was stuck right between the two soft balls. She was sleeping on her side with even breathing, so she wouldn't be woken up easily. He stood there and looked at her sleeping face for a long time before leaning over and kissing her forehead.

Yurong moaned in her sleep, and Wei Xuanning patted her arm gently. Seeing her sleeping peacefully, he smelled the fragrance of orchids and quickly fell asleep as well.

The next morning, Yurong opened her eyes and saw Wei Xuanning beside her. She was still a little confused and thought, didn't he leave yesterday? Why is he sleeping here again?

Wei Xuanning actually woke up after she stood up, and quickly hugged her from behind, "I was worried that you didn't sleep well yesterday, so I thought about it and decided to come back to accompany you."

So considerate, Yurong couldn't help but smile and said, "Well, I know you're the best."

What else could she be dissatisfied with?

Except for Yu Rou, all the sisters in the Yang family actually lived well. Yu Zhen, Yu Lian and even Yu Zhi all married into aristocratic families. Yu Zhen, needless to say, was the Empress's niece and a concubine's daughter. She was very good at reading people's faces. Her aunt was also very favored and had a say in the family. She had the best situation.

The next one was Yulian. Before she entered the palace, she was a beautiful and talented woman, the most united of the five chambers. Even though she had a cold uterus and had difficulty in bearing children, the maidservant who came with her as a dowry had already grown up and could bear children for her. She just had to dress herself up.

But Yu Rou, who was in her prime at this time, was lying on the bed, lifeless.

"Second Madam, please take some medicine." The nanny advised earnestly.

Yu Rou shook her head. She was a healthy person but she got a bacterial disease. She couldn't bear to see the doctor. When her husband was around, she couldn't even bear to have sex with him, for fear that this matter would be known to others.

She was a very clean woman, and had always been a very virtuous woman. What would she do if people knew that she had contracted a bacterial infection?

She died, but what about her son?

Yu Rou didn't want others to know that her son had a mother like her, nor did she want to go back to her parents' home to complain. Although her aunt Xie treated her well, she valued a woman's virtue the most. She was really afraid that her aunt would think that she was a woman of lechery.

Just as I was sighing, I heard someone outside say that the aunt from the fourth room had arrived.

She was confused. "Why is she here? I don't have much contact with Aunt Zhao, and even Yurong looks down on me. Why is she here?"

"I heard that Grandma Wei asked her to come and see you."

Grandma Wei? Isn't that Yurong?

It doesn't matter to others, but for Yurong, every time Yurou thinks of her, she admires her infinitely. When her fiancé was exiled, Yurong was able to break off the engagement despite the pressure and the condemnation of her clansmen, and soon married him to the Wei family. Even in the face of thunder and lightning, she still insisted on getting married.

A man of great talent.

If it were Yurong, what would she do if she encountered such a thing?

"Then let's meet." Yu Rou finally mustered up some courage.

When Zhu came in, she saw Yurou's face was pale. She was shocked, "Hurry up, Auntie, what's wrong with you? How did you get so sick?"

She originally wanted to try it one last time, and if it didn't work, just pretend it never happened.

Because Zhu knew that her daughter was definitely not a person who would meddle in other people's business and would not do anything without a purpose. She originally thought that Yurou just caught a cold at most. She was so young, how could she get any disease? But now it seemed that she was not going to live a long life.

Yurou smiled and comforted Zhu: "Auntie, I'm fine, it's just my old illness. Sister Yurong, do you have anything to ask me? I've been feeling unwell these days, and it's been a month or two. I thought I would come home to pay my respects to you when I'm better."

"You child, your health is already like this, why do you still want to do everything so carefully?" Zhu was a capable woman who always relied on herself. Even though Yang Zhaosheng was now a third-rank official, she was still the one in charge of the family. Even her parents-in-law were afraid of her, but looking at Yu Rou, she could also sympathize with her. After all, she was a motherless child and had no confidence in doing anything.

She looked around Yurou again and said, "I have something private to say to your Second Madam. You can go down first."

Yu Rou really thought that something was wrong with Zhu, so she sent everyone away.

When only Zhu was left, she said, "Your sister and brother-in-law met Jun Ze when they went to Qingzhou to take up their posts."

When Zhu mentioned her husband, Yurou smiled. "I never thought they would meet. Will they work together? I just regret that I am not in good health and I have a son, so I can't go with him."

"Yes." Zhu was very nervous and she didn't want to mention it.

Forget it. It seems that Yu Rou still has feelings for Xie Jun Ze, so let it go.

Then Zhu asked her in detail about her illness, but Yurou's answer was vague and even inconsistent. She said she had a cold at first, and then said she had a cough.

She couldn't help but say, "Your cough has lasted for so long and it still hasn't healed. Do you want to see a doctor? I think I'd like to ask a doctor to come over and take a look. If you're afraid, I'll go get him."

Yu Rou immediately said in horror: "No, no..."

It was obvious that something was wrong. Zhu hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you? Your son is still so young. It's not okay for him to be so afraid of illness and doctor." She glanced at Yu Rou again and felt that she was hiding something.

Yu Rou thought of her son and was stunned again, but she also knew that she was not familiar with the fourth room. If this matter got out, she would not be able to live like a human being.

Even Yurong looked down on her and thought she was a drag.

Thinking back then, Yurong didn't say anything because she didn't know more about the Wei family, not to mention that she didn't know how to look at her when she knew she had a viral disease.

For a moment, Yu Rou was immersed in her own emotions.

Zhu called the maid outside, handed over some silver, and threatened, "She is already so ill, and you still allow her to avoid illness and doctors. If anything happens to her in the future, I will definitely ask my sister-in-law to sell you off."

Most of the people around Yurou were like her, timid. When they heard about the sale, their legs went weak and they hurriedly explained the truth to Zhu.

"Since the Second Master left, our Second Madam's private parts have grown something like the things that women in the kiln get. Second Madam asked us to keep it a secret, and even the First Madam from her natal family never mentioned it. Madam Zhao, our First Master Zhao is a favorite of the Empress, you have to help our Second Madam. She is the most innocent person and has never done anything indecent with others. Our Second Madam has always treated our Second Master with respect, and the Second Master has never looked for other women. We don't know how our Second Madam got this disease!" The nanny lay on the ground crying sadly.
