Luo Chengzhang closed his eyes and asked the maid to pull Aunt Qiao away.
Aunt Qiao cried even harder, and Yi Ning sneered, "The life or death of the baby in my mother's womb is uncertain. Are you being disrespectful to the mistress by making such a fuss?"
Aunt Qiao stared at Luo Yining blankly, while Luo Yining looked at her coldly and said softly, "Pull her away."
Luo Chengzhang didn't say anything, and Aunt Qiao was dragged away. Asking Xuan Ge'er to leave her really touched her sore spot, and her crying could be heard outside the yard.
It was rare for Luo Shenyuan to see Yi Ning so resolute, and he was indeed really angry.
He continued to say to Luo Chengzhang, "Father may not understand why he thinks she's just a girl, so it's okay to indulge her a little. But that's how the root of the trouble is planted. Aunt Qiao's daily expenses are always comparable to mother's. I'm afraid this won't work in the future. A family can't be well run without rules. Father, you have to think clearly."
Luo Chengzhang was left speechless by his son's words.
He indulged Aunt Qiao because he loved her and didn't care about the conflicts between women. But if you think about it carefully, Minglan's death was also caused by Aunt Qiao. Now Lin Hairu's child is in danger because of his indulgence! Aunt Qiao can do this because of his doting.
"Father understands." Luo Chengzhang looked a little tired, his eyes red. Because of the blow he had suffered today, his whole demeanor was somewhat dim, and he didn't say a word to defend Aunt Qiao.
The doctor came out of the house, followed by Qingqu. Luo Shenyuan walked up to them to discuss things.
The busy schedule lasted until midnight, when the guests from the main house had retired. Only then did Chen hear of the incident in the second house and arrived with her maids and servants. Lin Mao, Madam Gu, and the others followed behind her. Although Chen often argued with Lin Hairu, as a mother herself, she naturally understood the importance of her children. Hearing that it was Xuan Ge'er who had pushed Lin Hairu, she also became furious.
What she couldn't stand the most was her second brother's doting on Concubine Qiao. Even if a concubine from the side room was favored, what good would that do? Could she possibly climb up to the head of the main room? Chen and Madam Gu hurried into the inner chamber to see Lin Hairu. Meanwhile, Lin Mao looked at Luo Chengzhang coldly.
He said coldly, "Uncle, I have to say something. My Lin family has a simple and honest family tradition. My aunt grew up in the Lin family and has never understood any intrigue, but she has the best temper. Now that she has come to your family, it would be fine if she endured all kinds of grievances, but you actually let that concubine and illegitimate son hurt her? If you don't like her, my aunt will divorce you and return to the Lin family. The Lin family will still treat her like an aunt. She will never be bullied in other people's homes!"
Lin Mao was also annoyed by Luo Chengzhang, and his tone became sharp.
Luo Chengzhang heard the hurried voices of Chen talking in the room and was unable to utter a word of rebuttal. He sighed deeply. Although Lin Mao was a junior, he was also Lin Hairu's family member. He was really in the wrong.
At this moment, Qingqu hurried out from the inner room, finally with a smile on her face. She said to Yining, "Seventh Miss, I gave the Madam the medicine, and now she's finally fine! The Madam's abdominal pain has also eased a lot..."
Yi Ning hurried to the room. Lin Hairu was lying on a bright red crabapple silk pillow, her face pale. But when she saw Yi Ning come in, she turned her head towards her. Yi Ning walked to her bed, half-knelt, held her hand, and whispered to her, "Mother, it's okay."
Lin Hairu laughed when she heard this, but tears were streaming down her face. She touched her abdomen and held Yining's hand tightly with one hand.
This child...was saved because of Yining.
When the child is born in the future, it must be taught to be close to its sister and never be separated from her.
Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief. Chen even said to Lin Hairu in a rare gentle tone, "I think this child is strong. It must be a boy."
In the west side room, Luo Chengzhang, having heard that the child had been saved, wanted to come in and see Lin Hairu, but was stopped by the maid at the door. She said slowly, "Master, the mistress needs to rest. I think you should come back tomorrow, lest the mistress see you get too agitated."
Lin Mao was a man and was not allowed to enter the inner room. He just looked at Luo Chengzhang coldly, then turned around and ignored him.
A scumbag, he was too lazy to look at it.
Luo Shenyuan met Doctor Xiao, a famous Baoding doctor, and walked with him out the door. Doctor Xiao told him, "The medicine I prescribed for your mother should be taken twice a day."
Luo Shenyuan asked the servant to give Doctor Xiao the money for his visit: "I'm sorry for neglecting you this time. I'll treat you to a drink another day."
Doctor Xiao smiled and waved his hand: "You are the disciple of Master Xuankong, you are welcome."
Luo Shenyuan smiled upon hearing this and asked Doctor Xiao, "What do you think of Qingqu, the maidservant who follows my sister?"
"You've learned from a master, but you still need experience." Doctor Xiao said, "But I don't know why you're working as a maid in a mansion?"
Luo Shenyuan said nothing more, so Doctor Xiao didn't ask any more questions. The steward escorted him out of the courtyard. Luo Shenyuan walked back and saw the servant standing under the eaves. He asked calmly, "Where is the fourth young master?"
"Seventh Miss punished him by making him kneel in the ancestral hall. The Fourth Young Master refused to kneel, so Seventh Miss's maid pressed his shoulders and forced him to do so. Do you want him to come over?"
Luo Shenyuan's tone didn't change at all: "No need, let him kneel."
He walked into the house, his posture as pine-like, with a gentle calmness... and coldness.
