Old Madam Ren was horrified when she heard this. She patted her daughter's back and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. With me here, no one can hurt you. I'll send for the doctor to come in and take your pulse. I'll definitely help you save the baby. Just stay home and don't go back to the Lin family yet."
"This time I came back to my parents' home on the pretext of having a dispute with my husband. On the way, the old lady and the first wife sent people to persuade me twice. They will definitely send people again." Ren Shijia said worriedly.
Old Madam Ren frowned and thought for a moment: "I will block it for you. Don't worry about anything else. Just focus on taking care of your baby."
Ren Shijia sat up straight from Old Lady Ren's arms: "Mom, if this is true, what should I do? If it is true, they, they are too cruel. The old lady is my great aunt!"
Old Madam Ren frowned and thought about something in her mind. She did not answer Ren Shijia's words, but only said: "I will discuss it with your father when he comes back. You just pretend that you know nothing for now." Then Old Madam Ren called the maid in and asked her to invite a doctor she was familiar with to come to the house to take Ren Shijia's pulse.
After the maid left, Old Madam Ren instructed Ren Shijia again, "Remember not to tell your fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law about what you just said, and don't let them see any clues. You must firmly tell others that you came back because you were dissatisfied with your son-in-law, understand?"
"Yes, mother, I understand." Ren Shijia quickly assured.
Not long after that, the fifth wife, Mrs. Lin, came over. She had already visited Ren Shijia's Nuanxiang Pavilion and added and replaced a few items.
Old Mrs. Ren asked Ren Shijia to go back to her yard to rest.
After the doctor entered the house, the old lady first asked the doctor to go to her own yard to give him some instructions before asking him to go to Nuanxiang Pavilion to take Ren Shijia's pulse.
At noon, when Mr. Ren came back, the old lady dismissed everyone else and Mr. Ren and started to suspect Ren Shijia.
"...I've felt something was amiss for a long time, so when Jia'er got pregnant this time, I was extra cautious and specially sent her two trustworthy midwives. A few years ago, the Lin family also asked Jia'er to choose a boy from the eldest son's grandson to adopt. But that child's biological parents are still alive, so when he grows up, won't he still be close to his biological parents? The eldest son's calculations are clear."
"What's wrong with Lisheng?" Old Master Ren, who had been pacing slowly for a few steps, stopped and asked calmly.
The "Lisheng" he mentioned was the pen name of Ren Shijia's husband Lin Kun.
Old Madam Ren said, "Don't you know your son-in-law's temperament? He's the easiest to control! I agreed to marry my daughter to him because of this, but I didn't expect this to happen. When the Lin family came to ask for Jia'er's hand in marriage, everything was fine. My aunt was asking for the hand in marriage for their nephew from the second branch of the family, but now the second branch has become the eldest branch. If Jia'er really has a problem, the Lin family won't have an easy time either! This is outrageous! I treat the girl from the Lin family as my own daughter, but they treat my daughter like this."
Old Mrs. Ren became more and more angry and could hardly control her voice.
