Chapter 37: Unhappy Pregnancy

  A-Yuan pinched her throat and shouted that someone had fallen into the water, then she quickly walked away with Ye Zao.

  As soon as they entered, Ye Zao checked first: "Quickly take a look, let's not leave anything behind." None of them could be trifled with.

  After checking, neither of them lost anything, and they finally felt a little relieved.

  Then there was a commotion in the garden.

  "I hope she can be saved. What's wrong with Yin Gege?" Ye Zao asked.

  "The girl doesn't know yet, just now, the girl had just left, and there's news that Yin Gege has gone." Song Dainiang brought in a large basin of hot water.

  "No wonder. But Wu Gege was alone in the garden... Was it to silence him?" Ah Yuan said softly.

  "Xiao Tingzi, go and ask discreetly if that girl has been rescued. If she has, take the opportunity to tell her that if she wants to survive, it's best to pretend to be stupid. It would be even better if she doesn't remember anything." Ye Zao said.

  The little pavilion was very clever, nodded and went out.

  Before Li Ce had even arrived, the Fourth Master and his wife were already back.

  As soon as they heard that Yin Gege had left, both of their faces turned unpleasant.

  But it was a complete oversight of a girl falling into the water.

  Xiao Tingzi found an opportunity to meet with Xiao Yue: "Sister Xiao Yue, our girls have said that if you want to stay alive, pretend to forget about past events. Don't look for death, the matter between you and Gege will be discussed later."

  Xiao Yue was taken aback for a moment before she remembered who this little eunuch was and nodded tearfully.

  She fell into the water and was scratched by the ice in it, half of her face was already ruined.

  In the main hall, Furen frowned: "Yin's wife is dead, how could her maid fall into the water? Has anyone seen it? What happened? Did Yin really die of illness?"

  Could it be that someone was murdered right under her nose?

  "The slave saw it, and Yin Gege indeed died of illness, but the origin of this illness was suspicious. It's inevitable that there are some internal affairs too. That little girl named Xiaoyue woke up and became stupid... completely unrecognizable." said Yang Ayi.

  "It's really... almost New Year, can't let people worry. Properly send Yín Gé Gé away. Since Xiǎo Yuè has already become like that, just send her to live in the Zhuāngzi." Fú Jūn waved her hand.

  Even if there is an inside story, it has nothing to do with her, Xiaoyue this person will still be kept.

  Even if things get messy later on, she won't be the unlucky one, unfortunately... it's still an opportunity, after all.

  "It's all right, send it out and we'll be safe." Ye Zao sighed.

  "What... if Zhuangzi still wants to kill someone?" Ah Yuan was worried.

  "Wugge is just a Gerge, unless she doesn't want to live herself." Even if it's done secretly, as long as Xiaoyue dies, someone will investigate.

  How much power does Wu Guo have?

  That night was extremely chaotic.

  The next morning, the news that came made Fu Jin shocked for a moment.

  "Master, it seems that Lady Yin is pregnant and has been for about two months." Yang's nanny was also shocked.

  This news was originally not supposed to be spread, but the aunt who examined the corpse got drunk yesterday, so she didn't keep it a secret.

  Suddenly, it was all over the government office.

  A'ling was helping Ye Zao with her hair, and after Xiaoting reported the news, Ye Zao sneered: "I said so! What's worth making Wu Shi, who hasn't even served Fourth Master before, pressure Yinniang like this. It must be... originally they wanted to force Yinniang into a miscarriage... but it backfired. This person is ruthless indeed."

  But who would have thought that Yinniang herself did not even know she was pregnant. It was another maid who discovered it and inadvertently revealed it, only to be bought off by Wugeng.

  So neither she nor Xiao Yue knew. But Wu Gege racked her brains to make her miscarry.

  It was also unlucky for her that when she was playing with the hairpin, Wu Gege saw it and shouted out loud.

  Fourth Master learned of the news and in a fit of rage, had all the servants who attended to Yin Gege beaten to death. However, only one small servant was spared because he was mentally handicapped and sent away.

  Everyone assumed that Xiaoyue had jumped into the lake to drown herself because her master was dead and she wanted to follow him in death, thereby earning a reputation as a loyal servant.

  Years ago, Ye Zao hadn't seen Fourth Master.

  However, Fourth Master did have a servant from the front yard send her some things.

  Four pieces of fabric, all cloud brocade. There are also two boxes of jewelry.

  It's not a set, and those leaves can't be used either.

  They are all miscellaneous, one this and one that. A small box is inlaid with gold, silver, jade and precious stones, not too expensive, but just what she needs.

  There is also a small box of pearl flowers, with silk fabrics, with millet pearls, and with broken gemstones. They are not expensive, but they are all exquisite, just suitable for little girl's.

  Ye Zao has a misunderstanding, Fourth Master treats her as his daughter, cough...

  Ye Zao's overjoyed expression was very satisfying for Su Wanfu.

  Returned to Fourth Master, Fourth Master was also very satisfied: "Hmm, in the future if there are such accessories, just keep them."

  Not expensive, yet stylish and good-looking, just right for her.

  It's almost New Year's Day.

  There are four uncles who are exceptionally fond of him, and this year, Ye Zao's life is very comfortable.

  Fourth Master also rewarded things in this way, so naturally there was no lack of silver. Thinking that she had no money, on the twenty-ninth day of the year, he asked Li An Kang from the front yard to send two hundred taels of silver.

  They were all silver ingots of five taels each.

  Ye Zao smiled and handed Li Ankang ten taels of silver.

  For a time, everyone was very satisfied.

  Having silver, plus the deliberate care of the kitchen, whether it's snacks, sweets, melon seeds, or regular meals. This year is all about prosperity.

  For the past half month during the New Year, Fourth Master has been busy, Madame Fok is also busy, and even Madame Li will be entering the palace soon. No one can bother Ye Zao. It's not worth mentioning how comfortable it is.

  So, when Fourth Master finally saw Ye Zao, he found that the little girl had gotten a bit fatter.

  Of course, this is after the event and needn't be mentioned.

  On the sixteenth day of the first month, during a family banquet, Fourth Master had yet to notice Ye Zao when another thing happened.

  Yunying, also known as Miss Xu, personally announced that she is pregnant.

  This is a bombshell, and everyone is unbelievable.

  It was the fourth master himself who didn't quite believe it either. He called for the imperial physician in a very bad tone to take his pulse.

  If Yuning was talking nonsense or wasn't pregnant, then she might as well be dead.

  Li gripped the handkerchief tightly, this wretch, is actually pregnant? She'd better pray that she really is, otherwise, there will be no good outcome!

  The imperial physician is not as good as the royal physician, but he's not incompetent either. This jade Ning has been around for two months now, and it's easy to find out about her.

  "As for Master Ziyuan's words, Miss Xu indeed has, two months now."

  "Congratulations, sir." The lady said with a smile as she stood up.

  Mr. Li also stood up with everyone else and congratulated him.

  "Let's ask Dr. Tai to take a look tomorrow and then we'll talk about it, sit down." Fourth Master was in a general mood.

  Having a child is a good thing, but whoever gets pregnant can laugh about it, except for this Yuning, it's really... unexpected!
