The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

After hearing Gu Yan's crying, everyone noticed that there seemed to be blood on her hands. She looked panicked, helpless and terrified.

A panting old woman followed behind her, carrying Li Xianglian, whose face was as pale as paper, on her back. She came in and knelt on the ground with a thud.

The three people looked like they were fleeing from a disaster, and they looked miserable.

Zhou was the first person in the main room to react. She leaned out of her chair and asked, "Sister Yan, get up and tell me, what are those things on your body and hands?"

When he saw Li Xianglian, he stood up and asked with concern, "Sister-in-law, what happened? Why did you let the maid carry you here? Why are you lying on the ground?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the women in the room gathered around her, but when they saw Li Xianglian lying on the ground, they didn't dare to go forward.

Only Zheng, Gu Jinchu, and the Zheng family remained calm.

Gu Yan knelt at Gu Li's feet, glanced at Zheng, who seemed very afraid, and pulled the hem of her grandmother's skirt, "Grandma, it was Zheng who locked up mother and me. Now mother has seen blood. Please save mother."

Zheng picked up the teacup and took a sip. She said calmly, "Lock him up? Sister Yan, you're going too far."

"Today is Chu Jie's coming-of-age ceremony. There are many people coming and going in the mansion. I am afraid that someone will bump into Madam Ru. Is there anything wrong with having someone protect you?"

"After all, Madam Ru is pregnant with a child, which is very precious!"

Gu Li dropped the teacup in her hand onto the small table with a loud noise. "It's already so late, why don't you go find Doctor Fang!"

Zheng Liu played with the Buddhist beads in her hand and said slowly, "I don't know where Doctor Fang is. Seeing Madam Ru's condition, we can't delay any longer. The Doctor Wu I just mentioned came to watch the ceremony today and is in the mansion right now."

Li Xianglian opened her eyes at this time, and tears fell before she spoke. She looked at Gu Li who was sitting at the top of the table and said, "Mother-in-law, Doctor Fang is also here to watch the ceremony today, but I don't know if he has left the house yet."

Seeing that she had woken up, Zheng tilted her head to look at her, and asked with a smile, "Madam Ru, do you want to lie down on the big kang at the side? This is really indecent and unsightly."

After saying this, she scolded the old woman who carried her over, "You only have brute force. Madam Ru is the second master's second wife after all. How can you lie down in front of everyone like this?"

The old woman's face and body were covered in sweat and she looked silly. She carried Li Xianglian, who wanted to speak, to the big kang in the clinic, and everyone in the room followed her.

While they were talking, a middle-aged man in a blue Taoist robe walked in behind the maid.

"Madam, Doctor Fang is here."

Not long after the two men came in, Li Xianglian's brother Li Wenshan stepped over the threshold stealthily, sticking to the door.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu Li stood up from the bed, not caring about the rules, and said, "Doctor Fang, please take a quick look. Is there anything wrong with the baby in Xianglian's belly?"

Doctor Fang sat on the brocade stool brought by the maid, with his hand on Li Xianglian's wrist, and soon his face showed regret.

Shaking her head, she said, "What a pity, what a pity... I was pregnant for more than four months and the miscarriage just happened."

Li Xianglian looked incredulous. She struggled to get up from the kang and said in a trembling voice, "Doctor Fang, didn't you say your pulse was stable a few days ago? How did you miscarry?"

After hearing this, Gu Li, who was standing by, seemed to have lost her strength and was supported by two maids before she could stand steadily.

"Madam, do you remember what you have eaten? Your pulse shows that it is caused by cold and yin." Doctor Fang's face was ruddy and looked a little greasy, and he said with squinted eyes.

When Gu Yan heard that the child was gone, she stood up and pointed in the direction of Gu Jinchu and Zheng and shouted:

"It's all their fault. Ever since my mother got pregnant, they have been displeased with us. Today, Zheng even locked my mother and me up in Tingyu Pavilion and had that old woman and guards guard us. They also had people send us meals."

Gu Jinchu stood up, walked to her, and slapped her in front of everyone.

He smiled and looked at her, "If I don't like you, I will just take action. According to what you said, there are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law guards guarding you, so how did you escape?"

Gu Yan covered her face and glared at Gu Jinchu. Li Xianglian, who was lying on the kang, could not accept the reality. She covered her stomach and wailed, "Ah! My child!"

Someone shouted, "Oh my God, Madam Ru is bleeding so much!"

When everyone heard this and looked over, they saw a large amount of blood gushing out from Li Xianglian's body, and the scene in the main room became chaotic again.

Wu turned her head and looked at Zheng, "It was right not to let Kaiji's wife and your second sister-in-law come. It's so unlucky." They are both pregnant.

Zheng glanced at her daughter inconspicuously, and after realizing Li Xianglian's plan, she ordered people to lock them up.

I just don't want to get angry with them today, at Chu Jie'er's coming-of-age ceremony.

Just like what my sister-in-law said, this scene is too unlucky.

Gu Jinchu noticed his mother's gaze and smiled slightly.

Zhou was still somewhat rational. She asked the housekeeper to take the women of the Gu family to the side rooms to rest, and the girls who had not yet reached marriageable age in the main hall to return to their own courtyards.

The main room was empty in an instant. Doctor Fang did not care about the defenses of men and women. He used acupuncture and herbal medicine, and Li Xianglian's bleeding stopped.

Doctor Fang pointed at the bloody mess on the handkerchief, showed it to everyone in the room and said, "The fetus has been aborted. Madam Ru needs to be carefully taken care of for a while."

Zhou covered her mouth and nose with a silk handkerchief and lowered her eyes to take a few glances.

Gu Li fell into a chair beside her, as if she had aged several years in an instant, and asked, "Doctor Fang, can you tell whether this baby is a boy or a girl?"

Doctor Fang quickly put away the handkerchief. Seeing someone reaching out, he thrust the handkerchief at her with disdain and said with some regret, "It's a fully formed baby boy!"

Li Xianglian lay on the edge of the kang next to the window, pointing at Zheng with a shaking finger, her voice filled with uncontrollable sadness and anger, "You! It's you who killed my two sons. I want you to pay for their lives!"

Li Wenshan stood aside and jumped up and down in agreement, "Yes, pay with your life! Both of my brother-in-law's legitimate sons were killed by this vicious woman!"

The second master, Gu Huanian, hurriedly stepped over the threshold of the main hall and glanced at the women in the room. The atmosphere in the room was heavy, and there was a faint smell of blood.

He walked towards Zheng and asked, "Someone just told me that Xianglian had a miscarriage. Madam, can you tell me what happened?"

Gu Li patted the table beside her twice, her voice old and weak, "What happened? Zheng killed your son again. He was a fully grown baby boy!"

As he spoke, tears streamed down his face and he choked with sorrow. "Huanian...what on earth does our Gu family owe the Zheng family? Why did they kill my two grandchildren one after another!"

Gu Huanian stumbled, walked towards Li Xianglian with some disbelief, and asked, "Cousin, is what mother said true?"

Li Xianglian fell on the edge of the kang and stretched out her hands to him, "Husband, I want Zheng to pay for my child's life!" She lay in his arms and began to cry.

"Father, it was Zheng who locked up my mother and me, and fed my mother problematic food. Doctor Fang said that it was a fully formed baby boy, the little brother that my grandmother and father had been waiting for for a long time..."

The mother and daughter, one hiding in his arms, the other kneeling on the ground hugging his legs, crying miserably.

Gu Huanian seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He hugged Li Xianglian and looked at Zheng with red eyes. "I said that no one will shake your position as the legal wife. Why can't you let them go?"

Gu Li was panting heavily, not caring whether the Zheng family was there or not, and she pointed at Zheng, shaking her finger, "Huanian, divorce Zheng! If I indulge her again today, I will be sorry to the ancestors of the Gu family!"
