Yu Yi quickly caught up with Granny Li and heard her talk about the situation at home.
Granny Li's daughter Zhao Zhi was three months pregnant. This time, she was not very stable. Her lower abdomen was often swollen and painful. She couldn't even eat soup or food. She was already so thin that she was almost skin and bones.
Tonight, she complained about bloating again. Granny Li felt sorry for her daughter, so she hurried out to find a doctor.
The doctor was dragged out of the house in the middle of the night. He stumbled. The old woman looked old, but she had a lot of rough strength from doing farm work. The doctor was caught in her hand and could hardly get away. She
could only pant and plead, "I have seen Mrs. Du's pregnancy. Her pulse is very stable. It is normal to have a stronger reaction in the early stages of pregnancy. Hey, hey, slow down..."
Granny Li was not willing to listen. She was also a mother and knew the difficulties of giving birth. Even if the reaction in the early stages of pregnancy was strong, her daughter's reaction was really too much. What's more, this is not her first child, but her second. She shouldn't be more sad than the first.
As soon as she stepped into the Du family's yard, she heard the heartbreaking cry of the child in the side room. It hurt her ears even through the closed doors and windows.
Through the shadows reflected on the window, she could vaguely see that one person was holding a child and coaxing him, and another was holding a bowl of soup and feeding it to the child.
On the way to Fengsheng County, Yu Yi heard Granny Li say that she had a six-year-old granddaughter named Du Ruo, which, like her daughter, was taken from a very beautiful flower name.
The granddaughter was also a pretty and well-behaved little girl, just like her name. Every time Granny Li came to the city, Du Ruo liked to sleep with her grandmother and listen to her stories at night.
The sound coming from the room was a girl crying, and it must be Du Ruo, who cried until her voice was hoarse.
The doctor sighed, "A crying child will also affect the mood of a pregnant woman. I told you last time to take the child to Grandpa's house to take care of him for a while, and bring him back when Madam Zhao is stable."
The wood and various semi-finished products piled in the yard were not cleaned up and were in a mess. The crying of the child over there finally eased a little, and the woman's uncomfortable moaning came from this room again.
The doctor rushed into the room before he could catch his breath, and was pushed to the bed to feel his pulse.
Zhao Zhi lay on the bed with his eyes closed, his face as haggard as gold paper, his eyebrows tightly wrinkled, and a layer of fine sweat on his forehead. He looked really uncomfortable.
There was a woman standing by her bed, Zhao Zhi's mother-in-law. @無限好文，盡在晉江文學城
She stroked Zhao Zhi's hand and comforted him softly, "Be patient, every woman has to go through this when giving birth. You reacted so strongly this time, which means you must be pregnant with a boy. Boys are naughty, so of course it's more painful than when you were pregnant with Ruoruo. Just be patient."
The doctor felt that Zhao Zhi's complexion was a problem, but he took her pulse several times and felt that it was normal. He asked cautiously, "Have you asked other doctors to see her?"
The mother-in-law immediately said, "Of course, my son has almost asked all the doctors in the city, and they all said it's normal."
The doctor nodded and said, "The pulse is indeed normal. Madam Zhao, you have no appetite when you are pregnant. Even if it's for the sake of the child, you have to eat, even if you can't eat."
"I even stewed chicken soup for her tonight, and she vomited it all." The mother-in-law turned around and said to Granny Li, "My dear, you see, I told you that she just doesn't eat enough. When she was pregnant with Ruoruo, I was the one who took care of her. Why don't you believe me?" She paused as
she spoke, and only then did she notice that there was someone standing behind Granny Li. The girl was very beautiful, dressed and dressed, and her aura made her look like she was not an ordinary person.
The mother-in-law's expression changed slightly. She looked at her nervously, then turned to ask Granny Li: "Who is this girl?"
Granny Li was thinking about her daughter, so Yu Yi smiled and took the initiative to say: "I am from the same village as Granny. This time I came to the city with her to see Sister Zhao Zhi."
Yu Yi turned his eyes to look at Zhao Zhi, and secretly released spiritual power to circulate around her. Unfortunately, she was a sword cultivator, not a medical cultivator after all, and she really couldn't see what was wrong with Zhao Zhi.
Mortal life is fragile, and she was pregnant, so Yu Yi didn't dare to use elixirs on her casually.
She consciously left the house under the vigilant eyes of her mother-in-law from time to time.
In the yard, Xue Chenjing also followed her into the Du family, but he did not approach the main house. Instead, he stood stealthily outside the window of the side room where the child had just cried.
Du Ruo's crying has stopped now.
Yu Yi lightly jumped over the messy wood on the ground and landed lightly outside the house.
Sensing her approach, Xue Chenjing stood up as if nothing had happened, and with a wave of his sleeves, he re-pasted the hole in the window paper and looked up at the moon in the sky, as if he had just been admiring the moon under the eaves instead of peeking at it outside the window.
Yu Yi walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong in this room?"
Xue Chenjing pondered and shook his head. "When I came in, I heard her crying sharply, which was full of pain. I thought she was entangled by something. I just observed and there was no sneaking around. This yard is also very clean."
If it was not sneaking around, then it could be another situation.
Yu Yi heard him say this and thought it was not the work of demons. Is it really just because the reaction is stronger in the early stages of pregnancy? The medical environment in ancient times was relatively backward, and women really suffered a lot when giving birth.
The two of them, one is a sword cultivator, and the other is a magic cultivator. If it was not the work of demons, then they really couldn't help much.
At this time, the door creaked, and two men, one old and one young, walked out of the side room. They looked similar, and they were a father and son. They should be Zhao Zhi's husband and father-in-law.
Xue Chenjing didn't want to deal with ordinary people, so he quickly used a seal to hide himself and Yu Yi. The Du family father and son walked past them without noticing, and walked towards Zhao Zhi's room while talking in a low voice.
Du Qian said, "Dad, why don't we follow the doctor's advice and bring Ruoruo to your house for a while. She cries every night and it makes your wife feel uncomfortable."
Father Du obviously disagreed, "We are separated from you by a courtyard wall. Can't she hear you crying in our house? It's easier to coax Ruoruo if she stays with her mother."
The two walked outside Zhao Zhi's house and stopped talking without continuing.
After everyone entered the main house, Xue Chenjing grabbed Yu Yi's wrist, gently pushed open a crack in the window, and went into the side room.
The room was dark and filled with a strong smell of medicine. Xue Chenjing twitched his nose and sniffed it, and said, "There should be sleeping herbs in the soup."
So, after Du Ruoruo drank the soup, she slowly stopped crying.
A small figure was lying on the bed in the room. Yu Yi focused his spiritual power in his eyes and used his spiritual vision to observe the girl on the bed. The tears on her face had been wiped, and the corners of the quilt were neatly pressed. It was obvious that the adults who took care of her had carefully arranged her when they left.

Xue Chenjing stretched out his hand to test the girl's condition, but halfway through, he remembered that he was not Xue Mingyuan. If he, a monster, probed her, it would directly take the life of this human child.
He retracted his fingers and whispered, "Ayi, you probe her soul."
Yu Yi turned his head and glanced at him, and as he said, he put his index finger and two fingers together to point to Du Ruo's forehead, and carefully passed a ray of consciousness. After a moment, she withdrew her hand, frowned and said, "Her soul is missing, one soul and two spirits are missing."
Xue Chenjing's eyes were dark. Sure enough, no one knew the pain of soul separation better than him. No wonder the little girl cried so heartbreakingly.
He walked forward, stretched out his hand above the bed, waved his hand and quickly drew a few spiritual lines. In the darkness, only the hunting sound of his robe sleeves could be heard. The spiritual lines flowed from his fingertips and formed a magic circle.
Xue Chenjing was afraid of being exposed, so he deliberately used spiritual power to form a formation. Spiritual power is pure and righteous energy, but he formed an evil formation. The two are not mutually exclusive, so the power of this magic circle was greatly weakened.
But it is still possible to pursue the lost soul of a human little girl.
When the magic circle was formed, Xue Chenjing said, "Ayi, pinch her mouth open." Yu
Yi looked at the magic circle in the air. Although the circle was built by spiritual power, for some reason, the runes in the circle exuded an indescribable evil spirit. She asked cautiously, "What are you going to do?"
Xue Chenjing's movements froze slightly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. His pupils lit up slightly in the darkness. It turned out that she didn't completely believe Xue Mingyuan.
His Adam's apple slid, and he swallowed lightly. He controlled his tone and said gently and harmlessly, "Lend her a breath and pursue her lost soul and spirit. I won't hurt her, Ayi, you believe me."
Yu Yi still heard a familiar tone from the ending of his "you believe me" at the end. When Xue Chenjing asked for help, he would unconsciously add a little nasal sound, which would make his tone sound weak and more likely to shake people's hearts.
In such a dim environment, without looking at him with the eyes, the hearing would be more sensitive to the tone of voice.
Yu Yi dare not say that she is 100% familiar with Xue Chenjing's other tones, but she is very familiar with his tone of begging.
She was almost fooled by his pretense before. @無限好文，盡在晉江文學城
Seeing that she did not move, Xue Chenjing called softly: "Ayi?"
Yu Yi gathered her mind, looked at the magic circle for a moment, and used her half-baked knowledge of the magic circle to look at the magic eyes and spiritual lines of the circle. Finally, she leaned down and pinched the little girl's mouth open as he said.
The girl who had been fed the potion slept very soundly, and her breath was weak because of the lack of soul. The magic circle gathered three breaths from her mouth, and then the light suddenly retracted, and the spiritual lines intertwined and condensed into a flying insect and flew out.
Yu Yi looked at the finger-sized, glowing mosquito flying in front of her eyes, and almost couldn't help but slap it.
She said in surprise: "Why is it a mosquito?"
Seeing her disgusted expression, Xue Chenjing secretly curled his lips in annoyance, thinking that he should have turned into a good-looking thing earlier.
He pretended to be relaxed and said, "I can't think of anything else for the moment, but mosquitoes are also very convenient. They are flexible and agile and fly very fast. Don't worry, others can't see them."
Yu Yi thought of the black insects all over the ground outside the Chunyan Pavilion again, and was very suspicious of his aesthetic orientation. He said speechlessly, "As long as you like it."
Between them, the glowing big mosquito flew to the window with a sturdy posture and got out of the window crack in the blink of an eye.
Yu Yi hurried to catch up, and Xue Chenjing chased after her, trying to explain: "Actually, I'm not very..."
He paused and remembered that he was Xue Mingyuan now, so forget it, he was too lazy to explain. Xue Mingyuan just liked these disgusting things.
The two of them came out of the courtyard and saw the light mosquito hovering for a while under the moonlight, and then flew straight to the main house.
At this moment, the Du family father and son were sending the doctor out. The doctor was holding a medicine box and shook his head in confusion, saying, "Your wife's pregnancy is indeed quite stable. Logically, she shouldn't be so uncomfortable. Well, observe for a few more days, observe for a few more days and see."
The father and son nodded repeatedly. Du Qian took out the money for the visit and sent the doctor out.
Yu Yi and Xue Chenjing went into the house invisibly. Granny Li and her mother-in-law were both guarding the bed. Granny Li stood up holding Zhao Zhi, and her mother-in-law was trying to feed her chicken soup.
The quilt slipped off Zhao Zhi's body, revealing her thin body under the quilt. Because of her thinness, her bulging belly was very obvious.
The light mosquito flew to their side, circled around Zhao Zhi's face, and finally moved down and stopped on her lower abdomen.
Yu Yi's eyes widened in surprise, and she subconsciously turned to look at Xue Chenjing, a little bit unbelievable. How could the lost soul of the eldest daughter be in her mother's belly?
