I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you
Chapter 176 Becoming a Widow
The first wife's family was happy, but the second wife's family was sad.
The Second Master Fu Xiaolin was sleeping soundly in his room when he was suddenly awakened by a maid, who said that the Second Madam Qiao was beaten by Fu Yuzheng!
Fu Xiaolin was scared!
"what?"
"My wife was beaten by my niece?"
"How did you fight?"
Fu Xiaolin sat up nervously and asked repeatedly.
When he learned that it was Qiao who came to cause trouble and was thrown out by Fu Yuzheng's men, Fu Xiaolin's nervousness disappeared all of a sudden, and he lay back on the bed and continued to sleep.
The maid: ...
After being speechless for a while, he could only say, "Second Master, Second Madam fell and sprained her waist. She is crying in pain."
But Fu Xiaolin turned over, facing the wall and closing his eyes, and said impatiently: "Go away, I'm not a doctor. If you sprain your waist, go find a doctor. There's no point in finding me!"
"If you dare to disturb my sleep again, I'll slap you in the face!"
Maidservant: ???
The maidservant had no idea what to do with such an incompetent man who didn't love his wife. She could only pout at his back and turn around and leave.
Over there, a stretcher carried the second wife, Mrs. Qiao, back to the second room. She had sprained her waist and was in excruciating pain, wailing non-stop.
Chen Daiyu and Fu Yuxuan were both woken up from their sleep.
Chen Daiyu had a falling out with her mother-in-law over whether she should go to pay respects to Fu Yushu on her return home. Now that she was woken up, she immediately opened the bed curtains with an angry look on her face, opened the east window, and yelled to the outside:
"Why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night? Are you crying? If you don't sleep, I will have to sleep too!"
"Selfish old man!"
Second wife, Mrs. Qiao, was already sweating profusely from the pain, and when she heard her daughter-in-law's provocation, she became even more furious and almost died of anger!
At this time, the fourth daughter, Fu Yuxuan, came in urgently. Seeing this, she hurriedly coaxed in a low voice: "Mother, don't bother with your sister-in-law. Don't pay any attention to her. Where is it hurting? Your daughter will call a doctor for you."
There are two female doctors in the mansion, but they are paid for by the first wife, and the second wife... can't use them at all.
Fu Yuxuan hurriedly asked the servant to go outside to call a doctor.
It took at least an hour to get the doctor back and forth. Unexpectedly, it was late at night, and the second house couldn't afford the high price, so many doctors refused to see him.
When a doctor finally arrived, the sky was already turning pale and it was dawn!
In other words, Second Madam Qiao was in agony all night long, and she cried until her voice became hoarse!
After the doctor gave me acupuncture, I felt a little better.
At this time, the doctor kindly said, "I have some pain-relieving powder here. Would you like to prescribe a half-month supply? After half a month, the pain will basically go away."
Fu Yuxuan immediately said, "Yes."
Second wife Qiao hurriedly asked about the price. When she learned that half a month's supply would cost twenty taels of silver, she was so scared that she kept saying, "No, no, no. It doesn't hurt that much."
Fu Yuxuan knew that her mother was reluctant to part with the money, but she couldn't bear to see her mother sweating and wailing in pain, so she winked at the doctor.
The doctor understood and said nothing more in person.
When it was time to say goodbye and leave, Fu Yuxuan stood up to see him off. After leaving the Jingyang Marquis Mansion, Fu Yuxuan took the doctor directly to a small courtyard two alleys away, where the dowry Chen Peiting gave her was stored.
I took out some silver and bought half a month's worth of painkillers.
Fu Yuxuan was a good and filial child. She planned to secretly give her painkillers without telling her mother.
Sure enough, with the painkillers, Second Madam Qiao's life became much better. But after only half a day, she suddenly remembered her son Fu Jingxuan and asked the maid, "Is the young master back?"
The maid went out to look for him and came back saying, "The young master is not in the mansion."
Fu Yuxuan smiled and comforted her mother: "Brother is such a grown man now, why are you still worried? Brother should have gone to the Imperial Academy early in the morning."
Fu Yuxuan had no idea that her brother was planning to murder Tao Ying.
The second wife, Mrs. Qiao, was well aware of the situation, so she was not as optimistic as her daughter and was very worried. Especially at night, when it was past the time for the Hanlin Academy to go off duty and her son was still missing, she began to get very anxious.
As a result, another day passed and Fu Jingxuan still didn't come back.
At this time, Fu Yuxuan could no longer sit still, so she went to the Hanlin Academy to inquire in person. As a result, she learned that Fu Jingxuan had been absent for two days, and if he did not come without reason again, he would be dismissed from his post and never re-employed.
When Fu Yuxuan learned that something bad had happened to her brother, she went to the government office without saying a word and reported the matter to the authorities, saying that her brother, who was an official, had disappeared for no reason.
A missing persons case was filed.
The official handed the case over to the constable and asked them to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Unexpectedly, when Second Madam Qiao found out, she sternly scolded her, "Xuan'er, what are you doing? Hurry and drop the case!"
What if the investigation revealed that her son had attempted to murder the Marquis's wife and he lost his job? What would she do then?
Full of concerns, Qiao ordered Fu Yuxuan to withdraw the case with a tough attitude.
Fu Yuxuan was very smart. Considering what had happened in the mansion over the past two days, she guessed directly, "Mother, could it be that my brother is still in the mansion? He is being held in... the main room?"
The second wife, Mrs. Qiao, could no longer hold back and burst into tears: "It should be. That night your aunt had a difficult delivery, and your brother and I went to the big room together. As you know, I was beaten in the waist, and your brother... was arrested by them..."
Until this moment, Qiao still chose to lie in order not to affect her son's official career.
Although Fu Yuxuan did not unilaterally believe what her mother said, she immediately went to the main room to find Fu Yuzheng.
At that time, Fu Yuzheng was teasing her two cute little brothers in her mother's room. Suddenly, she learned that Fu Yuxuan was looking for her for something urgent. She knew that she came for Fu Jingxuan.
So they agreed to meet in the pavilion in the backyard.
It was a very hot and humid day in mid-June, and Fu Yuzheng came to the pavilion fanning herself with a round fan.
Fu Yuxuan stood up from the stone bench and politely said, "Third sister."
After Fu Yuzheng sat down, she pretended to ask, "What does the fourth lady want to see me for?" When she found out that the person asking was indeed Fu Jingxuan, she simply denied it and said, "I didn't see your brother come to the big room that night."
After that, he called the maids guarding the main room and asked them in front of Fu Yuxuan, "Did you see her brother come to the main room on the night my mother had a difficult delivery?"
The women guarding the gate recalled, "No, only the Prince of Zhenbian, the Princess, the Third Master, the six imperial doctors, and the Second Madam Qiao came that night. We all registered."
After saying that, he also brought up the entry and exit registration book.
Fu Yuxuan picked it up and looked through it carefully. Sure enough, there was only a record of her mother, but no record of her brother.
Of course, her brother's name was not on the entry and exit register, because Fu Jingxuan entered through a dog hole that night and the concierges were completely unaware of it, so where could they register?
It is precisely because of this that Fu Yuzheng can be so confident and bold... and refuse to admit it!
Even though the Second Wife, Mrs. Qiao, made a fuss later and revealed the fact that "Fu Jingxuan wanted to bribe four midwives from the first house" in a hurry, and reported it to the authorities again and filed a "missing case", it was still useless.
The second wife has no power or influence, and no official is willing to conduct a carpet search of the first wife and offend the entire family for them.
Even if Chen Peiting tried to intervene, it was useless because Fu Yuzheng had a stronger background.
Just like that, Fu Jingxuan disappeared without a trace, neither alive nor dead.
Not long after, he was stripped of his official position and was never hired again.
When the second wife Qiao found out, she cried so hard that she was dizzy...
And the second house was hit by misfortunes yet to come. A few days later, Chen Daiyu went to the government office and forced the official to close the case with the word "death". She was not willing to remain a widow just for Fu Jingxuan!
In this way, when Chen Daiyu came out of the government office, her identity changed and she became a widow whose husband had died.
When the second wife Qiao found out, she started fighting with Chen Daiyu:
"Who said my son is dead? If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body! You dare to issue a death certificate without even seeing the body? Are you a whore? Will you die without a man at night?"
Chen Daiyu was not to be outdone. She showed her sharp nails and started scratching at the second wife Qiao, shouting, "Yes, I will die if I lose my man at night! Not only do I want a death certificate, I also want to go back to my parents' home... and remarry!"
After this fierce fight, Chen Daiyu really got on the carriage and left the Marquis' Mansion, going straight back to her parents' home, preparing to remarry.
The second wife, Mrs. Qiao, was so angry that she insulted her day and night, calling her a whore who couldn't stand loneliness and cursing her to die a miserable death!
Unexpectedly, just two days after returning to her parents' home, Chen Daiyu revealed that... she was more than two months pregnant!
It’s exciting now!
The second wife, Mrs. Qiao, no longer dared to curse. She dragged her daughter Fu Yuxuan and went to knock on the door of the Prime Minister Chen's house. She apologized to the gatekeeper and said:
"...I made a thousand mistakes. It was all my fault as the mother-in-law. I made my daughter-in-law unhappy...Now, for the sake of the baby in your belly, please ask your Sixth Miss to come back with me."
Unexpectedly, as she was saying this over and over again, a basin of feces and urine suddenly poured out from behind the door, directly splashing Second Madam Qiao with a stink.
Stinks from head to toe!
Even Fu Yuxuan, who was next to her, suffered.
Just as Fu Yuxuan covered her nose with a handkerchief and frowned, Chen Daiyu came out laughing and said with a vicious look on her face:
"Dirty old woman, why don't you get out of here? If you don't, I will not only throw shit in your face, but also feed you a belly full of shit!"
The second wife Qiao knelt down crying, "Daiyu, please, for the sake of the baby in your belly, let's reconcile and come back with me. Okay?"
Chen Daiyu snorted: "Give birth to your poor and broke child? Let the child suffer the same hardships as you for the rest of his life? You're dreaming!"
"I'll knock him out right now!"
After saying that, Chen Daiyu turned around and left.
As he walked, he pounded his belly with his hands, as if he was going to kill the baby on the spot, deliberately trying to make Second Madam Qiao anxious to death.
Second wife, Mrs. Qiao, was indeed extremely anxious.
She fell to her knees and hugged Chen Daiyu's legs tightly. No matter how she kicked her, she refused to let go.
Mrs. Qiao knew that her son was very likely dead, and she couldn't let him die...
This farce attracted a large number of onlookers. When both parties were having an awkward argument, Chen Peiting came back from his shift and saw from afar that Fu Yuxuan was kicked to the ground by her sister.
There was shit and urine on the ground, and the stench was terrible.
Chen Peiting was so distressed that he jumped off the horse immediately. While helping Fu Yuxuan up, he scolded Chen Daiyu sternly, "Sister, what are you doing? Do you have any manners?"
Finally, with the intervention of Chen Peiting, the second wife Qiao and Fu Yuxuan were finally able to enter the home of the Prime Minister Chen, and after cleaning, they changed into clean clothes.
At this time, Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, finally came out to receive the Second Wife, Mrs. Qiao, and Fu Yuxuan for the sake of her son.
Although she received him, Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, looked down on him with an arrogant look, and said with her nose turned up to the sky:
"Madam, your son is dead. My daughter has nothing to do with your Fu family anymore. She will never go back to your Fu family with you in this life."
Just as Second Madam Qiao was about to speak, Fu Yuxuan knew that her mother was not good at speaking, so she simply pulled her sleeve to stop her and took over the conversation herself, saying:
"Aunt, you are wrong. Everything would be easier if we didn't have a child. My mother is also a reasonable person, otherwise she wouldn't have let Miss Chen leave before."
"However, the current situation is different now. Miss Chen already has my brother's child. If she has an abortion now...if the news gets out, everyone in the capital will condemn Miss Chen for being cold-hearted and cold-blooded. It will be difficult for her to marry into a good family in the future."
"Also, I heard that the daughter-in-law of the Minister of Rites accidentally took an abortion drug and had a miscarriage. Seven or eight years have passed, and until now... there has been no movement in her stomach."
This means that abortion is extremely risky and may harm your body and lead to permanent infertility.
These words were so powerful that Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, immediately began to hesitate.
Yes, for a woman who may not be able to get pregnant, the risk is too great. Which in-laws would want her?
If I can't get married, will I have to die in my parents' home with a bad reputation?
This... is so unlucky.
Fu Yuxuan noticed that Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, was beginning to waver, and she knew there was hope.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the maid who served Chen Daiyu ran over in panic: "Madam, madam, it's terrible, the sixth young lady has abdominal pain and the bed is full of blood..."
"What?" Second Madam Qiao was shocked. When she followed the maid hurried to the room, she saw that Chen Daiyu had fainted from the pain, and the dirty blood was still flowing out.
This, this... is definitely a miscarriage.
"My grandson..." Second wife Qiao screamed in pain. She was so emotional that she finally fell to the ground with a "thump".
Fu Yuxuan rushed to help him, but failed, and they both fell to the ground.
