The Concubine's Survival Manual

Chapter 112

It has been in production for ten days, why is it still red?

The eldest lady hurriedly held Wu Niangzi's hand and asked softly, "Does it hurt? It's strange, why did it suddenly turn red again?"

Having said that, both of them are not very flustered: it is common for pregnant women to become red, and it is an embarrassing thing, but it is not surprising.

Wu Niangzi opened her mouth to answer, but she frowned, and saw blood gushing out of her lower body again, and in an instant, her lower body was already stained red.

The eldest lady panicked a bit now, and asked repeatedly, "Do you want to invite a doctor? Does it hurt?" She waved her hand at Qinianzi again, "You avoid it for a while!"

It is indeed inconvenient for unmarried girls to watch Fifth Lady change clothes.

Seventh Lady had no choice but to get up and leave the house.

But he was preoccupied, and his brows were furrowed.

Unexpectedly, he thought of the bowl of medicine that the eldest wife gave Wu Niangzi.

It shouldn't be so, if you drink it here, you will have an attack, and a fool will suspect the bowl of medicine, and then follow the clues to check, and the person who gave the medicine will be easily exposed.

Otherwise, why didn't the eldest wife dare to put a whole unknown poison on Jiu Yiniang?Everyone is a big family, the people who cook the medicine and buy the medicine are all well-known. Even if you want to prescribe the medicine, you will never do it this way.

Besides, it will take some time for the medicine to work...or is it just a coincidence?

But how can there be so many coincidences in the world, one side is taking medicine and the other is getting red...the amount is still unstoppable!

Her heart was cold, and she didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing the girls flustered, going in and out of Xili, they simply waved at the spring equinox.

"Go in and bring out the bowl of medicine that Fifth Sister drank just now, so you can keep it!"

She gave orders while thinking, then stood up and glanced inside.

There are not many maids brought by Fifth Lady as a dowry, only six, and the remaining ten or so are provided by the Pingguo Mansion. At this time, there is chaos in the house, surrounded by people inside and out—Seventh Lady As soon as he saw it, he could see that a little maid was carefully taking the bowl of medicine on the bedside table aside.

"Who is that girl?" She grabbed Chun Equinox's arm.

The spring equinox followed Qin Niangzi's eyes and looked in, a little surprised, "Yes, she is the little maid who sweeps the yard. Our girl saw her cleverness, so she was promoted to do some chores in the house..."

Qin Niangzi let go of her hand and urged, "Don't let the medicine spill!"

The spring equinox was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he answered tremblingly, and went into the room, first brought the small blue and white porcelain bowl into the small cabinet in the main room, and locked it again. "Seventh, seventh lady..."

Qin Niangzi managed to force a smile, and gently comforted Chun Equinox, "Be prepared and never suffer... Don't be afraid, maybe nothing will happen?"

Just pass the vernal equinox, "Go to work!"

She sat at the table and looked at the movement in the room, and heard anxious whispers from time to time, "Can't stop?"

"Change the strap quickly."

"Is the plant ash here?"

The eldest wife's soft cry sounded again, and the midwife mothers entered the room one by one with solemn faces, and two or three old doctors trotted into the room...

Seventh Lady's heart became tighter and tighter, she couldn't help but stomped her feet, and she didn't care about any taboos. She got up and took three steps and walked into the back room. With anxiety, in the middle of the crowd, an old doctor's face was congealed and his pulse was silent, and there were people around him looking at Wu Niangzi's eyelids and lip color.Sitting next to Wu Niangzi, the eldest wife was already in a state of confusion, and cried until she was in tears. Wu Niangzi's complexion was pale, she closed her eyes and let everyone do what she wanted, as if she didn't even have the strength to speak.

What's the use of crying at a time like this!

Seventh Lady paused, and was about to go in to wake up the eldest lady, but she didn't dare to disturb the doctor, so she had to retreat to the wall and bow her head in thought.After a while, the old doctor let out a long sigh and said in a low voice, "Madam, let's take a prescription and see."

So he got up and packed the medicine box, and discussed with several colleagues in a low voice, the brows were very serious.

There was a murmur in the room.

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps outside the house again, and Qin Niangzi looked out, only to see an eleven or twelve-year-old girl standing outside the door looking in, her face full of surprise.The two people's eyes met, both were startled, the girl opened the curtain and entered the door, and asked Seventh Lady in a low voice, "Sister, what happened?"

She was dressed luxuriously, she didn't look like a servant woman - it is said that Xu's family also has several concubine daughters, and it is likely that one of them came to visit Wu Niangzi.Seventh Lady was so upset, she casually said, "Mrs. Shizi is probably..."

The second half of the sentence was stopped and he dared not say it.

There was another rush of footsteps outside the house, the curtain was lifted, and Mrs. Xu entered the room, her face was serious, and she asked sharply as soon as she entered the door, "What's going on! Why didn't it work all of a sudden?"

Several doctors were discussing in low voices, but they were all relieved to see Mrs. Xu coming, and the leader stepped forward to ask Mrs. Xu, "Madam take a step to speak."

Qiniangzi's heart sank, as if she had fallen into a pool of ice water, and she almost couldn't catch her breath.

It seems that Wu Niangzi is probably...

She took a few steps, got into the crowd, got close to the eldest lady, covered it with her clothes, pinched the eldest wife's ribs, and whispered, "Ma'am, this is not the time to cry!"

The eldest lady was clever, and she stopped crying. Looking around, she saw several doctors talking around Mrs. Xu, so she got up and separated from the crowd, walked to Mrs. Xu and listened carefully.

Seventh Lady took advantage of the situation and sat next to Fifth Lady, holding her hand. Fifth Lady moved slightly, her long eyelashes trembled a few times, then opened her eyes and turned to look at Seventh Lady.

"Why, how could this be..." Her eyes were blank, but within half an hour, the color on her face was gone. "Seventh sister, how could this be..."

Seventh Lady's heart was pierced, and Fifth Lady closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep before waiting for her answer.

Madam Xu's exclamation came again from a distance, the eldest lady fell on her back without making a sound, and fell to the ground without making a sound.

#
By noon, Wu Niangzi was already dying.

Face Ruo Jinzhi was unconscious, and couldn't even pour the medicine in. The eldest wife woke up several times, and seeing her like this, she cried and passed out again.

Mrs. Ni and several sisters-in-law and relatives of the family came to visit. Mingde Hall was full of people inside and outside. Mrs. Xu sent her out of Xili Room and asked her to take care of the eldest wife.

Fifth Lady no longer had the strength to stand up and change clothes, and there was a smell of blood inside and outside Xili's room.

Mrs. Tai just sat for a stick of incense and felt unwell. Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Fifth Younger and Mrs. Fourth Younger hurriedly arranged a warm sedan chair and sent the old man back to Leshan Residence.

The fourth young lady volunteered to take care of the old man, "I won't make trouble for my mother!"

The first young lady and the fifth young lady were sitting in the main room, the first young lady arranged the affairs in the Mingde hall, the fifth young lady had already called the maid to come in to prepare for the funeral, and sent someone to visit Shoucai.

Listening to her low and calm voice in the Dongli room, Seventh Lady couldn't help feeling a bit chilly in her heart.

Of course, there is a need for someone who can do things like this in the gate of the mansion, but is Mrs. Wu a little too calm?
Grandma Min and Mrs. Xu have been taking care of the fifth lady in the Xili room all the time. Because she is not confinement, all men are not allowed to come in to visit. Duke Ping sent his wife to pass the news back and forth at any time. In the middle of the afternoon, he invited her again Quan Zhongbai came in to help his veins.

The eldest wife was still in a coma, but was pinched twice by Qin Niangzi. Hearing that the miracle doctor Quan came, she didn't know where the strength came from, so she stood up immediately, pulled Qin Niangzi, and followed the little miracle doctor a few steps forward. room, sat down next to Wu Niangzi, and didn't even care about avoiding the word.

Most of the people present were married women. The first young lady and the fifth young lady supported Mrs. Xu to sit on the chair next to the bed. The three of them had no expression on their faces, like clay sculptures. Quan Zhongbai was in a daze.

Seventh Lady just glanced at Fifth Lady, feeling a little out of breath, and hurriedly turned her head. Seeing that her legs and feet were weak, Grandma Min grabbed her arm and said in a low voice, "Maybe there is still hope."

But just looking at Wu Niangzi's complexion, one can tell that the vitality is already indifferent... Postpartum blood collapse is not a trivial matter even in modern times, let alone Wu Niangzi's bleeding is so turbulent...

Quan Zhongbai seemed to have just come out of the palace, although his face was still calm, but his clothes were already a little messed up because of the sprint, and the tip of his nose was sweating in the cold weather.The eldest wife stared at him anxiously, as if she was looking at a living Bodhisattva.As long as he takes one injection, Wu Niangzi will be able to rejuvenate.

There was an abnormal tranquility in the house for a while, but this tranquility seemed to be emotionally concentrated to the extreme, sinking before boiling.

Quan Zhongbai lowered his eyes and concentrated on feeling his pulse, but he let go of his hand after a while, with a slight anger on his face, he glanced at everyone in the room, paused for a moment at Qinianzi, and then turned away again.

"The body is inherently weak. Who gave her the medicine to clear the blood after giving birth? The internal injury has not stopped, and the blood collapses... Let's try it with an injection!" His voice seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice. Get goosebumps.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room changed immediately.

Grandma Min couldn't help gasping, and looked at the eldest wife.

The eldest lady couldn't care about anything else, she just looked at Quan Zhongbai eagerly, as if that was her only hope, after this injection, Wu Niangzi would really be able to rejuvenate.

Mrs. Xu's complexion was gloomy, and her eyes, like poisonous snakes, passed over everyone in the room one by one...

Qin Niangzi's heart sank, if it wasn't for Grandma Min's support, she wouldn't even be able to stand up.

She has been questioned by Quan Zhongbai several times, and she has never heard such a tone...

Immediately, a servant served burnt moxa, and Quan Zhongbai motioned for the eldest wife to roll off Wu Niangzi's collar, and lightly pricked her fair neck, and then pricked a few needles in the palm of the hand and the sole of the foot, and then again. After testing Wu Niangzi's pulse, she shook her head, her expression extremely ugly.

"It won't work."

He quickly pulled out the silver needle, "The blood is flowing like this, even a god can't save it."

The eldest lady groaned and was about to fall down again, but Quan Zhongbai didn't even look at it, he supported it with one hand, raised the other hand upwards, pulled up the sleeve of the eldest lady, the silver needle stuck into the elbow, pinched the person and twisted it, Although the eldest wife turned blue, she did not faint again after all.

She didn't even bother to cry, she just sat there in a daze, with a mask covering her face, both sorrow and joy had disappeared.

Mrs. Xu's voice was trembling, "How long..."

While packing up the medicine box, Quan Zhongbai said calmly, "I'm afraid it will be just now."

After these words fell into her ears, Seventh Lady felt that the world in front of her eyes was slowly floating, and the colors were falling apart. She looked at the thin woman lying quietly on the bed, and slowly closed and opened her eyes. She just felt that this dream was too real. .

Still so young.

Still so young!
The voices beside her ears slipped past like water, and Qin Niangzi could only faintly hear Quan Zhongbai's voice, "I can make her wake up and say a few words...it can't last too long."

The eldest wife suddenly let out another cry of grief, and the first young lady and the fifth young lady exclaimed in unison, "Mother, mother!"

In the chaotic Xili room, nothing is real anymore, everything is just a dream.

Wu Niangzi was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and her parents regarded her as the apple of their eye. How could she allow such a thing to happen to her?This dream is really too funny.

Somebody pushed her hard, and Qin Niangzi came to her senses.

Everything in front of him was so real that it couldn't be more real, Quan Zhongbai stood beside the bed and waved to her, "Mrs. Shizi wants to talk to you."

The First Young Madam, the Fifth Young Madam and Madam Xu had gone to nowhere, and Grandma Min was helping the drowsy Eldest Madam to sit in Madam Xu's seat.Fifth Lady has already opened her eyes, the eyes that were still full of spirits, but originally extremely agile, have disintegrated into two big black crystals, and she is struggling to turn her eyes, looking at Seventh Lady.

As if soaked in a bucket of ice water, all emotions disappeared. Seventh Lady took a deep breath, walked a few steps and sat next to Fifth Lady, holding her hand.

Fifth Lady's hands were already bone-chillingly cold.

"Take care of Shiro...Goro." Her voice was so soft that it sounded like a sigh, and Seventh Lady had to lower her head close to her lips. "Seventh Sister, Si...Lang, Wulang...mother...not useful, Second Sister...Father...with words..."

Seventh Lady nodded slowly.

"Okay." She promised solemnly. "I'll definitely take the word with me."

There were a few more noises around him, and Quan Zhongbai walked away from the bed and went to the eldest wife.

Seventh Lady didn't care about it at all. In the whole world, there were only her and Fifth Lady.

Wu Niangzi took a few breaths with difficulty, then murmured, "The one who hurt me will never let the child go..."

"We will definitely find the murderer." Seventh Lady promised softly, "Silang and Wulang will be fine, don't worry. There is a cousin, a third aunt, a father, a mother, a second sister, and me. grow up safely..."

Fifth Lady relaxed, tears gathered for the first time in her black crystal eyes. "I've been treating you badly." She said softly, and squeezed Qin Niangzi's hand tightly, "I'm sorry...you...the new clothes you owe you...I'll pay you back in the next life! Don't take it to heart, Don't forget my bad..."

Seventh Lady couldn't bear it any longer, and she burst into tears.

"You have been very kind to me." She said softly, "You have been very kind to me."

Fifth Lady smiled with difficulty, looked at Seventh Lady, opened her mouth, and closed her mouth again.

Seventh Lady still thought she had no energy to speak, and became scared for a while, but Fifth Lady held her hand tightly again, as if she was organizing her words, but she didn't know how to speak for a while.

She understood immediately.

"He's fine." She didn't have time to think about it, and whispered in Wu Niangzi's ear. "He and the emperor are innocent, and people outside are talking nonsense."

She hesitated for a moment, and added, "He still remembers you. When he came back that year, he was very sad to know that you were married."

Wu Niangzi laughed at once.

This smile has a little vitality and a little sparkle, but after all, it has run out of fuel, and it is irreparably decadent, just like the grace of a flower when it is about to bloom.

She let go of her hand and asked softly, "My child Let me see the child."

Naturally, someone went to pick up the child, and Seventh Lady got up and helped the eldest wife to sit beside Fifth Lady.

Quan Zhongbai went out again and didn't know what he did. After a while, the two young wives supported Mrs. Xu and slowly entered the house, followed by the adoptive mother holding a pair of twins.Wu Niangzi didn't know where the strength came from, but she half sat up and wanted to hug the two children, but it was a pity that she was exhausted halfway.

The eldest wife hurriedly hugged her, but she burst into tears again, speechless.

On the contrary, Fifth Lady was calmer. She looked at the eldest wife with nostalgia, and tried her best to speak, her voice was as small as a mosquito. "Mother, I, I can't bear to part with it... I haven't been filial to you yet... Only when you raise a child will you know your parents' kindness, I..."

He turned his eyes to look at his son again, and when he moved, his whole body shook, his neck limp, and he fell back on the pillow.

Quan Zhongbai took a few steps forward, pulled out a silver needle from the position of Baihui in her hair, brushed his hands in front of Wu Niangzi's eyes, closed his eyes, and said in a low voice, "Everyone, please forgive me."

Qin Niangzi felt cold all over, and only one sentence rang out in her heart.

Still so young!
