Chapter 413 She Must Have Poisoned Me
Lin Miaoyin frowned slightly, a hint of impatience flashed in her eyes, and she didn't even look at Yu Lingxiu. Her tone was as cold as a layer of ice: "I'm not interested in these trivial matters. I just want to ask you, has your mother contacted you recently?"
As she spoke, she tapped the edge of the table beside her with her fingers, making a rhythmic "tapping" sound, and each sound seemed to be urging Yu Lingxiu to answer quickly.
Yu Lingxiu had just recovered from her shock and her mind was gradually clearing up. When she heard Lin Miaoyin mention her mother, a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes and her tone was full of alertness: "Why are you suddenly asking about my mother?"
Yuzhu stood behind Lin Miaoyin, with a slight smile of disdain on her face, "We are just curious about how your noble mother, Anyang County Princess, would react after hearing about what you have said. It is unbelievable that a lady from a noble family would do such an ugly thing as bullying the wife, and use such despicable means!"
Yu Lingxiu's face turned pale in an instant and she bit her lower lip.
Her mind couldn't help but emerge with her mother's usual gentle and dignified appearance. If her mother knew about her situation, how disappointed and heartbroken would she be?
Thinking of this, Yu Lingxiu's eyes turned slightly red and a feeling of bitterness surged in her heart.
Yu Lingxiu took a deep breath, trying to suppress the bitterness in her heart. Her red eyes were instantly filled with coldness. She stared at Lin Miaoyin, her eyes full of disgust and disdain. The corners of her mouth raised a mocking arc, and she sneered and said, "Lin Miaoyin, you are so bold! Do you think you can just say anything about the Princess's residence? With your mouth, you can't guarantee that you will reveal all the secrets of the residence at any time. By then, the entire Princess's residence will be implicated by you. Don't blame me for not reminding you today!"
As soon as Yu Lingxiu's words came out, Lin Miaoyin felt that all her expectations were dashed in an instant, and a trace of disappointment arose in her heart.
It seems that she won't be able to get the information she wants today. Thinking of this, she looked at Yu Lingxiu with a bit of coldness in her eyes, "I can save you once, but I can't save you a second time. I'm sure you don't want this to happen again, so you should find another way out for yourself."
After saying that, she turned around resolutely, leaving Yu Lingxiu alone in the room.
Yu Lingxiu looked at Lin Miaoyin's departing back, the grievance and anger in her heart surging like a tide.
Why can she say these words in such a high position? I am just down and out for a while, why do I need her hypocritical sympathy?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her hands were clenched into fists, with her nails almost digging into her palms.
Before we knew it, night had quietly fallen.
As usual, the maid came to bring food to Yu Lingxiu.
As soon as she opened the door, a strong smell of medicine hit her in the face. The old woman was startled, this smell was not right.
She knew in her heart that Nanny Wu had only ordered Miss Yu to be given a little tempering, and after she suffered a little, Nanny Wu would come out to comfort her. They were very skilled in using this tactic of giving Miss Yu a sweet reward after giving her a beating.
But the current situation is obviously beyond expectations. This is not the rhythm that will make people sick! The old woman stood there, hesitating whether to report first or check on Yu Lingxiu's condition first. For a moment, she was at a loss.
The old woman walked quickly and arrived in front of Yu Lingxiu in two or three steps. Seeing that the girl was safe and sound, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't help but nagging: "Miss, did anyone come to visit you today? And asked you to take medicine? If you feel unwell, you must tell me, I will go and ask the palace doctor to come for you!"
She frowned slightly, her face full of worry, and continued, "If you get hurt because of taking some unknown medicine, I can't bear it!"
Nanny's words were like a thunderbolt, instantly waking Yu Lingxiu up.
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she stretched out her hand and tightly grasped Mammy's hand. She looked anxious, and her voice was a little higher: "Quick, go and call the court doctor for me! My legs hurt more than before, it must be that woman who drugged me!"
Speaking of Yu Lingxiu's leg injury, Nanny Wu had already given them many instructions.
Hearing Yu Lingxiu's cry of pain at this time, the nanny's heart skipped a beat and she groaned inwardly, fearing that people would know that she had not been by the girl's side and had gone out to play cards.
So, she didn't call for help immediately, but pretended to be calm, forced a smile, and coaxed softly: "Girl, are you confused again? Your leg is already injured, and it's normal to feel pain on weekdays. How can you say that someone drugged you?"
As she spoke, she gently patted Yu Lingxiu's hand, trying to calm her down.
Yu Lingxiu's face was almost crazy, and she gritted her teeth and said, "That woman Lin Miaoyin is here. What good intentions can she have?"
Lin Miaoyin was always cruel, how could she suddenly show mercy and be so kind as to treat her? She must be trying to take this opportunity to poison her! That's right, she was definitely poisoning her, just like she had instructed the maid to poison the servant before, her method was so vicious.
The nanny who was delivering the food was listening at the side, her heart skipped a beat and she immediately panicked.
In the Princess's Mansion, Princess Ning and Miss Yu have always been at odds with each other. This is something that everyone in the mansion knows.
"You, please be patient, I will go find Nanny Wu right away!" After the nanny who brought the meal said this, she didn't even bother to greet him and hurried away.
When Nanny Wu heard the news, there was no panic on her face. She waved her hand gently, signaling the nanny who was delivering the meal not to worry.
She looked relaxed and sat down slowly, picked up the teacup and took a few sips. The rising hot steam seemed to soothe the tense atmosphere around them.
She glanced slowly around the room, then raised her hand and calmly adjusted the hem of her clothes. Every movement revealed calmness and composure, as if this was just an ordinary matter.
It was not until half a cup of tea had passed that Nanny Wu got up and hurried to Yu Lingxiu's courtyard with the court doctor.
As soon as he entered the yard, the court doctor quickly stepped forward and bent down to check Yu Lingxiu's leg disease.
He frowned slightly and just opened his mouth to say, "This girl's legs--" Yu Lingxiu's heart tightened and she subconsciously looked at the court doctor.
She found that the person who came this time was not the same person who treated her last time, but an older one.
Nanny Wu seemed to have sensed her confusion and hurried forward to explain, "Young lady, this doctor is the most skilled in the family. He is late because he just went to check the eldest princess' pulse. As soon as he is done, I will bring him here immediately."
Yu Lingxiu remembered that she had indeed seen this person at the eldest princess's place before, and her doubts were dispelled. She nodded slightly and chose to believe what Nanny Wu said.
"How's my leg?"
