"Besides, we don't know what the situation is between her and the Changping County Lady, so it's better to be careful."
"Don't sacrifice your family just to save someone."
Ah Zi just woke up in a daze, and when she heard this, she felt even more resentful.
Are you afraid of getting into trouble if you save her?
Why didn't you do it earlier? If you let her sleep in the carriage, wouldn't there be less trouble?
Chang Kui quickly took Qinglan and rushed towards the provincial capital.
The mistress sat in the car, covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, looking at the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated, touching her abdomen with one hand and murmuring softly.
"It was originally a good thing, but now it has become a hot potato."
"Madam, please don't worry. Even if that girl knows the Princess of Changping County, it's fine."
"She had an accident while driving on the road. We are not doctors and we don't have any medicine, but we saved her and sent her to treatment as soon as possible."
"If that's the case, then the girl got into trouble. It can only mean that she was unlucky and deserved this disaster."
"It has nothing to do with you or the Lu family." The old woman beside the mistress smiled and comforted her.
Before the mistress could speak, the old woman continued, "The plague is rampant now. If you had returned home, you could have ignored it and no one would have said anything to you. But you didn't, and you saved her."
"Now that you are pregnant with the Lu family's grandson, you need to relax and take good care of the pregnancy. You don't have to worry about anything else."
After hearing the old woman's comforting words, the mistress finally felt a little relieved.
The old woman glanced at Qingzhu, who nodded and signaled the servant to continue on his way.
After returning to the city, the mistress did not go back immediately, but went to the pharmacy and asked Qingzhu to go down and inquire about the situation.
Qingzhu soon returned with Qinglan, who had changed her clothes. Qinglan replied, "Don't worry, Madam. The girl has been treated, and she treated herself promptly, so she'll be fine."
"The fever has subsided now. He ate something just now and is now asleep."
"That's good, let's go back." The mistress felt completely relieved when she heard this.
Qinglan suddenly stepped forward and the mistress looked at her in confusion.
Qinglan said softly, "Madam, I have something to report to you."
The mistress walked towards the inner room and Qinglan followed.
Qinglan knelt down and replied, "Madam, we may have been deceived by this woman. She may not know the Princess of Changping County."
"Oh? What do you mean?" The mistress looked at Qinglan.
Qinglan spoke again: "It's like this, the woman was sick and confused, and she started talking nonsense."
"Although she spoke intermittently and a little unclearly, I probably heard it clearly."
"She should have received a prescription for the plague, but whether she developed it herself or obtained it from somewhere else, I don't know."
"You mean, she wants to use this prescription as a medium to find the county lady in the hope of gaining her favor?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be exactly as I guessed." Qinglan replied respectfully.
The mistress also fell into deep thought. After a while, she finally spoke: "Don't worry about it for now. Just find someone to keep an eye on her."
"Yes." Qinglan nodded and walked out quickly.
Qingzhu followed her in and helped her walk outside.
"Mistress, should we go back or where else?" Qingzhu asked softly.
The mistress pressed her temples and said tiredly, "Let's go back. I'm tired."
"Yes." Qingzhu helped her get on the carriage and drove to the central street. A black shadow suddenly jumped out and hit the servant in the face.
The servant felt pained and was about to curse when he saw a child standing there at a loss.
The servant was so frightened that he shouted, "Kid, what are you standing there for? Run!"
The people around also noticed it, but it was too late.
Just when everyone thought the child was dead, a figure flew out from the inn next door and held the child in his arms.
With a tap of his foot, the whole person flew up.
The servant also stopped the carriage in a hurry, but the mistress of the Lu family in the carriage was pulled down by inertia.
"Oh my God, the mistress is having her period!" Qingzhu hurried forward to help her. Her hand felt something sticky and wet. She put it in front of her eyes and was shocked.
The old woman beside him reacted quickly and didn't have time to curse.
He directly instructed Qingzhu: "Lay the mistress down first."
"Qinglan, go to the nearby Chengji Pharmacy and ask Dr. Zhao to come over."
"Yes, Ma'am." Qinglan responded quickly.
The servant outside also heard it, and he ran to get the footstool in a hurry, still frightened.
Then he sank to his knees and said, "Madam, it was all my fault for not noticing the child. Madam, please forgive me."
"Stop crying, but when you get to Central Street, go find that famous midwife, Granny Zhu, and bring her over."
"What should we do now? The mistress is only five months pregnant." The old woman also began to get scared. Although it was an accident, it was also their dereliction of duty.
At this moment, the child who had gotten into trouble spoke up: "My grandmother is Mrs. Zhu. I know where my grandmother is."
Upon hearing this, the servant quickly stood up, wiped his sweat and tears, and said to the child, "Quick, take me to find your grandmother."
Qing Yuan put the child down and glanced at the inn. Qiu Yinong had been standing there watching. She heard their conversation and gave instructions directly to Qing Yuan.
"Bring the person up!" Qing Yuan responded with a bow.
Then he walked forward and said to the maid in the carriage, "My master is a doctor and knows medical skills. Your mistress is in an urgent condition now, so please follow me."
The old woman immediately agreed upon hearing this, and then asked, "Could you please let the young lady's master come down to treat my mistress?"
