Li Maocai didn't know what he was thinking. He only reacted when Li Qinghe called him in confusion.
"Um."
"Go and have a rest." Li Maocai spoke, Li Qinghe agreed, pushed him into the room, and helped him lie down on the bed.
After arranging Li Maocai, Li Qinghe went to her room.
She did not lie in bed to rest, but sat at the table waiting for her grandmother to bring back news.
But before my grandmother arrived, the whole house was in chaos.
Li Qinghe heard the noise outside and ran to the door curiously to watch secretly. A little maid came running from a distance.
Li Qinghe opened the door and waved to the little girl, calling softly, "Sister, what happened?"
"Who are you, young lady?" The little maid looked at Li Qinghe, then looked at her in Nanny Chen's yard.
After hesitating for a while, he briefly explained what had happened.
"Since you live in Nanny Chen's yard, you must be Nanny Chen's relative, right?"
"That Huang Li'er is Nanny Chen's granddaughter, do you know that, young lady?"
"I seem to have some impression of it. Could it be that both of my cousins are living in the Marquis' Mansion now?"
Now it was Li Qinghe's turn to be curious. Why was it that only cousin Dujuan came to visit today? Where was cousin Huangli?
The little girl looked around and said quickly, "Mrs. Jiang was chosen by the Second Master three months ago and taken into his family."
"The Second Madam was frail and nearly died giving birth to the Third Miss. Five years passed with no signs of pregnancy, so the Old Madam arranged for a third concubine for the Second Master."
"Today, it was revealed that Concubine Jiang was pregnant, but she almost fell into the pond and drowned. The Second Master was having a tantrum in the yard."
Li Qinghe cried out, and quickly said to the little maid, "Sister, please wait for me for a moment. I want to go check on my cousin."
"Oh, okay." The little maid nodded.
Li Qinghe ran into Li Maocai's room. He had already sat up. Seeing Li Qinghe come in, he asked, "What happened? Why is there so much noise outside?"
"It's like this..." Li Qinghe briefly recounted what had happened, and then warned him not to run around.
She told him to go and take a look and come back soon. Li Maocai nodded and told her to go and take a look quickly.
Li Qinghe followed the maid to the courtyard of the second house. After turning around so many times, she felt dizzy. This marquis's mansion was really big.
No wonder my cousin wants to be a concubine in this mansion.
However, when I saw that the courtyard where Huangli lived was so remote and small, the thought that had just arisen in my mind disappeared instantly.
She followed the little maid into the yard and saw her grandmother in the crowd.
She followed an old lady in luxurious clothes, who must be the old lady of the Marquis' Mansion.
Li Qinghe secretly looked at the old lady. Nanny Chen just turned around to give instructions to someone and saw her at a glance. A trace of panic flashed in her eyes and she glared at Li Qinghe unhappily.
But he didn't say much.
Watching Nanny Chen making arrangements one by one, although there was nervousness in her eyes, she didn't dare show it.
Li Qinghe sighed again, it turned out that being a concubine meant having no status.
Three handsome men stood in the front, each dressed in gorgeous clothes and each with an equally graceful and elegant woman standing beside them.
Li Qinghe looked around secretly and saw that the woman in the middle was the most luxuriously dressed. She quickly determined that she was the wife of the Marquis she was looking for.
After looking around, Li Qinghe was disappointed that she did not see her mother.
She even began to worry about her mother, who had not returned to the capital, nor had she written to tell her where she was staying.
Did something happen to my mother?
Li Qinghe suddenly began to panic. What should she do if something really happened to her mother?
Li Qinghe locked onto Madam Hou and wanted to wait for the right moment to go to her and explain her purpose.
Just as Li Qinghe was anxiously looking for an opportunity, the door opened and one of the men stepped forward anxiously, ignoring the displeasure that flashed in the eyes of the woman next to him.
Li Qinghe had been paying attention to this side and saw it all.
"Doctor Zhu, how is it? How is Li'er? Is the baby in her belly safe and sound?"
Doctor Zhu saw how nervous the Second Master was and reported truthfully, "Second Master, Concubine Jiang has a constitution that will make it easy for her to have children. She has a good foundation."
"I was just a little frightened after falling into the water, and the bleeding was just a miscarriage. I'm fine now."
The second master heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "That's good, that's good."
"Reward." The second master ordered happily, and the servant beside him quickly handed over a purse.
Doctor Zhu took it after expressing his gratitude and went back to get the medicine.
The second master quickly arranged for the maid to go with him to get the medicine and boil it. Just as he was about to go into the house to visit Huang Li, he paused when he remembered that his wife was still beside him.
The woman smiled slightly and said to him gently, "My husband, please go see Aunt Jiang first. She is pregnant and frightened. I believe she wants to see you. We will go back first."
The third wife sneered, said nothing, and turned away with her husband.
The old lady nodded in satisfaction: "Our Yuwan is virtuous. Second brother, go see Aunt Jiang first."
"Arong, please send my set of ruby head ornaments to the second lady's room later." The old lady instructed the nanny beside her.
The Marquis's wife paused, glanced at the old lady, said nothing, and walked out with an air of dignity.
Li Qinghe was ready to make a move, but before she could catch up, someone grabbed her wrist.
It was the little maid who brought her here before. The little maid shook her head and glanced at Nanny Chen. Li Qinghe looked at Nanny Chen.
The other person's face turned dark. Li Qinghe suddenly didn't dare to move. She lowered her head and was really afraid of her grandmother's expression at this moment.
