Suddenly, something happened in both courtyards of the mansion.

Lin Hewen came out of Madam Wen's yard with the good news. He looked at Old Madam Lin lying on the bed with joy. He raised his voice without a trace of sadness about losing a child and said, "Madam, Madam Wen is pregnant."

He didn't expect that Madam Wen had only been here for a short time, and because of Xu, he didn't often go to Madam Wen's yard. He didn't expect that Madam Wen could be so successful.

Old Madam Lin waved her hands and asked weakly, "Where is Xu's child?"

Lin Hewen lowered his head, knelt on the ground, and replied in a faint voice: "Xu is unlucky. The child is gone."

Old Mrs. Lin had guessed this outcome long ago, but she was also sad to have lost a grandchild.

"Xu has lost her child, so you should pay more attention to her. Don't just spoil Madam Wen because she has a weird temper now, okay?"

"Besides, this matter is also strange. Why did Xu suddenly have a miscarriage?"

Lin Xi was also confused. After all, Xu treated this child as her lifeblood. She often lay in bed to rest and never left the yard.

If there really was a problem, she would have found someone to look after it long ago. Why would she suddenly have an attack and go looking for a doctor everywhere?

Lin Hewen didn't know the inside story, he just said: "Xu is old after all, this child is not destined to be with her. Mother, your son will naturally comfort her."

Hearing this, Mrs. Lin just let him go without saying anything else.

After he left, Old Lady Lin said to Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, please light a stick of incense for the child for me."

In the center of the room, there is a statue of Bodhisattva placed in a niche. Behind it is a landscape painting hanging on the wall, and an antique incense burner with a little sandalwood in it.

Lin Xi knelt on the mat and lit a stick of incense.

……

It was already late at night when Xu woke up. She subconsciously touched her belly and looked at the nanny beside the bed. She asked in fear, "Where's the baby?"

Mammy didn't dare to say anything. Her nose was sore and she covered Xu tightly with the quilt. "Madam, don't think too much now. Think more about your body."

Xu didn't see Lin Hewen, but she asked, "Where's the master?"

Madam gritted her teeth, looked at Xu's worried words, and said, "Master, we are in Madam Wen's yard. Madam, you should rest first. If there is anything, we can talk about it later."

Xu tightly grasped Madam's hand and said in a tight voice, "You must let me know, Madam. You know that the only person I can trust is you. Can't you tell me? Are you going to hide it from me now?"

When the nanny heard these words, she couldn't hold back her tears and said directly, "Madam, the child is gone, and the master is with Madam Wen."

Xu was crying. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.

"Master, what are you doing with Madam Wen? Could it be that she is pregnant?"

Mammy is not talking.

"It was her child who killed my child." Mrs. Xu put her hand on her belly and continued, "If it weren't for this, how could my child be gone?"

As Xu spoke, she began to sob.

Child, that's her child.

Nanny also felt the same way and cried along with Xu. She choked up and said, "Madam, please don't cry now. Be careful not to hurt your eyes."

"Mammy, do you still have that medicine? Her child killed my child. She can't give birth to the child. She must not give birth to the child."

If she is not having a good time, why should others have an easy time?

Everyone has a hard time with him.

Mammy nodded while crying: "Okay, Madam, everything is up to you."

……

Lin Xi knew that Lin Hewen was still staying in Madam Wen's courtyard.

As long as those things are delivered to Lin Hewen's mouth, will he definitely forgive Xu after what he has suffered this time?

It won't hurt unless the board hits yourself.

They must also suffer the pain that their grandmother felt.

Chunhua had already asked someone to look up the prescription, but unexpectedly it was still difficult to make.

"Miss, please eat something!" Chunhua brought up some snacks and placed them on the table.

Lin Xi shook her head, looked at her grandmother's bed, retreated to the inner room, and said with a little fatigue: "No, I can't eat now. Grandma is sad because of the child in Xu's belly, so she just went to bed now, you can eat."

Hearing this, she nodded and said to take the snacks away to share with others.

Unexpectedly, everyone felt unwell after eating this.

Lin Xi went out and saw the two maids who had eaten her snacks rolling around on the bunk bed.

"What's going on?" Lin Xi asked.

Chunhua also shook her head and asked, "Miss, I don't know what's going on either."

Lin Xi only ordered someone to find a doctor. Under the current circumstances, she, New China, already had a vague suspicion of the target.

Is Xu so stupid? To attack her so quickly?

But if he was going to do it, why didn't he target Madam Wen, but her?

Soon the doctor came and gave the two maids a few injections, which slightly relieved their symptoms. He then said, "Based on their physical condition, I'm afraid it's because they ate too much."

Hearing this, Chunhua also explained, "Miss, this is my fault. I thought you wouldn't eat it, so I took it down and asked the others if they wanted some. I'm afraid they haven't eaten these things before, so it's possible that they accidentally ate too much."

is it?

Lin Xi turned around and said, "Heal him first. Come back and report to me if anything happens."

Everything went peacefully for several days.

Xu stayed in her own courtyard, becoming more and more quiet. She even ignored Lin Yuanyue's marriage and did not allow Lin Yuanyue to enter her own courtyard.

In this situation, no one knows what is going on.

But Lin Hewen's health suddenly failed. He called several doctors but none of them could help. He lay in bed, feeling that his time was up.

Lin Hewen's face was pale. He forced himself to come to Old Lady Lin's yard. When he saw the old lady who was getting stronger and stronger, he fell to his knees and cried, "Mom, my time is coming!"

When Mrs. Lin saw his appearance, she shook her head, asked the servant beside him to help him to a chair nearby, and asked someone to bring him a soft pillow.

"Speak nicely." There was a hint of disgust in Mrs. Lin's words. She held a bowl of tea and drank it intermittently.

Lin Hewen said, "Mom, I don't know why my body has suddenly become useless. If I suddenly pass away, you must help me to support the Lin Mansion."

"Mom, I've raised you all your life. Do you still need me to support you when I'm old?" Old Madam Lin sneered and continued, "Your health is not good. Don't you know to go see a doctor?"

"Lin Xi, go and call the doctor over."

Hearing this, Lin Xi nodded and turned to leave.

Seeing that he really had to go and see a doctor, Lin Hewen was really scared and said quickly, "No, it really can't be done, Mom. We can't see a doctor."

If he really were allowed to see a doctor and the doctor really said he was dying, what would he do?

Lin Xi came over with the doctor.

Following what Old Lady Lin said, she gave Lin Hewen a diagnosis directly.

The doctor said directly: "Master, I'm afraid you are poisoned."

Lin Hewen's hands trembled in panic, and he quickly asked, "Is there still hope?"

"It's definitely possible to save him. The poisoning is very mild." The doctor said, and he wrote a prescription. "Follow this prescription. Drink it for three months, and the poison will be excreted."

Lin Xi sneered. She knew that Xu would never really allow Madam Wen to give birth to the child, but she didn't expect her to act so quickly.

"Poisoned? How could I be poisoned? How could I be poisoned?" Lin Hewen didn't believe that he was poisoned, but when he heard that the doctor could cure it, he was very happy. "Really? If the poison can be cured, then I don't have to die?"

The doctor wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Of course he won't die. We just need to expel the toxins from his body. Now we need to confirm his daily diet, clothing, housing and transportation to find the source of the poisoning."

Lin Hewen nodded repeatedly upon hearing this: "I'm afraid I was poisoned at some point. Doctor, please take a look at me now."

As he said this, he asked someone to quickly prepare the medicine for him to take.

What do you eat on weekdays?

Lin Hewen narrowed his eyes, his expression suddenly became nervous, he called the doctor and said, "How about, doctor, go to a place with me first."

Lin Xi pursed her lips and said nothing. Everyone in the mansion knew that Lin Hewen had been eating with Madam Wen in recent days, and the food they ate was from the small kitchen specially set up for Madam Wen.

If there really is something wrong with the food, then the person wants to harm Madam Wen.

Lin Hewen was very nervous. If something really happened to Madam Wen, what would happen to his unborn child?

His steps became more and more unsteady, and he finally reached Wen Yu's yard, where he saw her sewing clothes for children.

He didn't want to affect Madam Wen, so he could only say, "Mrs. Wen, let me ask the doctor to take your pulse and see how the child is doing."

Madam Wen nodded gently, "Just do as the master says!"

Upon hearing this, Xu, who had been staying in the courtyard, quickly rushed to Madam Wen's courtyard. Seeing Madam Wen and Lin Hewen, she asked, "What's wrong with my sister's body?"

Before Lin Hewen could react, he said directly: "It's nothing, it's just that there is poison in my body. I've been eating the same thing as her recently. I'm afraid the child will be affected too."

Xu asked bitterly, "Really?"

She poisoned Madam Wen, but forgot that Lin Hewen had been eating in her yard every day in recent days. She didn't expect that she didn't poison her first, but instead harmed Lin Hewen first.

Xu reluctantly asked Concubine Wen, "Is the child okay?"

Wen Yu Niang then replied: "Doctor, I haven't seen it yet."

Xu looked at the doctor expectantly, but unexpectedly the doctor said, "The baby in this aunt's belly is fine."

Xu was dumbfounded. How could this happen?

Shouldn't Madam Wen's body be damaged by the poison now? She is fine now, but she has harmed the master instead.

She gnashed her teeth in hatred in her heart, but she had to pretend to be calm on her face.

"Since it was poisoned, have you found the source of the poison?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Hewen looked up at her. This time, Xu was too concerned about the baby in Madam Wen's belly.

"Not yet, I'm still looking." Lin Hewen replied, "Let's start with food!"

Everything in Madam Wen's small kitchen was searched through, but nothing unusual was found.

Xu Xinzhonghua was very proud. She was extremely careful this time. How could she possibly do anything with her food? She just bribed the maid around her and asked her to replace the potted plants in Madam Wen's room.

Her eyes fell on the oleander in Madam Wen's room.

Lin Xi also walked over from Old Lady Lin's yard, and she brought the old lady's words: "Madam Wen still has a child, her yard needs to be carefully checked."

"Even the bed she sleeps in must be checked and clean."

Xu was stunned: "Could it be that the old lady meant to allow outsiders to enter Madam Wen's room?"

Lin Hewen frowned, feeling unhappy.

Lin Xi said, "This is all for the good of the baby in Madam Wen's belly. Besides, the underwear was sent by my grandmother to check it personally, so there shouldn't be any mistakes."

Mrs. Xu didn't expect that Mrs. Lin had a backup plan. She looked worried and a little anxious.

Oleander is easy to identify and does not attract much attention. Only people who know a little about flowers and plants know that oleander is poisonous, especially to pregnant women.

"Miss, there is nothing poisonous in the room." The nanny sent by Old Lady Lin checked and then spoke.

Another maid also spoke up and said, "Neither."

Seeing this, Xu heaved a sigh of relief and was about to speak, but Lin Hewen said, "Let the doctor take a look, then I can feel at ease."

He always felt that this incident was related to Xu, but he was unwilling to admit it in his heart. After all, he truly loved Xu.

Xu clenched her palms. She had never seen him care so much about that person.

When the doctor went there, he saw the oleander by the window, and placed two pots very close to the bed, and came out and said, "There is nothing poisonous in it."

Lin Hewen breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't Xu.

"But, oleander is poisonous, how can it be placed in a pregnant woman's room?"

Lin Hewen was angry: "Who let it in?"

Madam Wen looked at the trembling Ali, the little maid who served beside her, and called out, "Ali, come here."

Ali was young to begin with, and couldn't hide things. When he walked in front of Lin Hewen, his legs suddenly went weak and he knelt on the ground.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see this situation.

Lin Hewen gritted his teeth and asked, "Do you want to harm Madam Wen's flesh and blood?"

Still not satisfied, he stood up and kicked her hard: "Tell me, why?"

Ali glanced at Lin Xi, lowered his head and said, "It was someone around the old lady who arranged for me to do this."

Xu said, "Ah, why is it the old lady?"

Lin Xi asked, "Who is it? Call her over."
