Chapter 112 Cousin, my stomach hurts...
Xu came over with Zhou and several maids and servants.
The maid who had gone to report the news ran to Chen Zhirou and cried, "Auntie, the mistress is here to make the decision for you! You must hold on!"
Chen Zhirou fell into her arms, moaning with her eyes closed.
Luo Zhen couldn't help rolling her eyes. The master was a good actor, and the slave girl beside him was no less so!
Over there, Xu had already walked quickly to Shen Zhirou's side and asked anxiously: "What happened? Why is she still sitting on the ground? Is the child okay?"
"Madam, I'm afraid our aunt is..."
The maid who had been beside Shen Zhirou cried and immediately repeated what she had just said to Luo Zhen.
Rong'er was very anxious when she heard this and hurried to defend herself, but before she could say a word, she was interrupted by another maid.
Mrs. Xu was already furious.
After all, she was the child of her beloved Shen Zhirou. She glared at Rong'er fiercely, "How dare you, a lowly slave, push your aunt? She's carrying my second son's eldest son! You're such a lowly thing, even eighty lives wouldn't be enough to compensate for that!"
While scolding, she asked the maid to quickly call a doctor, and asked the old woman to help Shen Zhirou.
Rong'er was so frightened that she was shaking. Her knees gave way and she knelt down: "Madam, I didn't, I didn't push Auntie..."
Xu refused to listen and angrily ordered the maidservant beside her, "Go, trap that slave girl and drag her to the woodshed. If anything happens to Zhirou's stomach, I'll skin her alive!"
Rong'er's face turned pale. She grabbed Luo Zhen's skirt and cried, "Second Madam, save me! I don't want to die! Second Madam!"
Luo Zhen felt disgusted, but she didn't pull her away. Thinking Pei Ji would be here soon, she stopped the maid who came to take her away and said to Xu, "Mother-in-law, I don't think this matter is that simple. My aunt is pregnant, and everyone in the mansion is carefully serving her. How dare Rong'er, a maid, hit my aunt? I'm afraid there's some misunderstanding."
Shen Zhirou, who had been silent and leaning on the old woman, suddenly burst into tears and said, "I know that Rong'er is the Second Madam's person, but I didn't expect, I didn't expect the Second Madam to be so partial to her. Could it be that I would wrong her, a girl!"
Mrs. Xu, who had always disliked Luo Zhen, continued angrily, "How dare you say that! Zhirou is in so much pain, and you didn't even call a doctor. You might have ordered Rong'er to do that! Humph, don't you know me? I'm telling you right now, if anything happens to Zhirou's stomach, you won't have an easy time!"
Luo Zhen's face turned green. She glanced at Nanny Zhao and Pei Ji coming over. She was immediately certain in her heart. She also imitated Shen Zhirou's behavior and cried aggrievedly: "I know that mother-in-law always dislikes her daughter-in-law. No matter how much she does, it is always her fault in your eyes. But she never expected that I just said a word to help Rong'er, and mother-in-law would throw dirty water on my head and punish me. What am I still alive for!"
As she spoke, she was about to crash into the rockery nearby, but the maid beside her hurriedly stopped her.
As the commotion was getting worse, Zhao Ma and Pei Ji also came closer.
Pei Ji's eyes were filled with annoyance and anger, and he shouted, "What are you doing?"
When Rong'er saw Pei Ji, it was as if she had seen the god or Buddha who saved her. She shouted "Second Master", ran over crying, threw herself into Pei Ji's arms, and told him what had happened incoherently.
Chen Zhirou stared at Rong'er who was lying in Pei Ji's arms, her eyes almost blazing with anger. She tried hard to suppress her emotions, sat down on the ground, holding her stomach, and cried to Pei Ji, "Cousin, my stomach hurts so much..."
