Doubao's front paws seemed to have suffered an unexpected attack and were in a frightening cracked state.

A shocking crack appeared on the originally round claw, and bright red blood was still flowing out.

You can imagine how painful every step it took was.

Bai Shao came over with the bean curd cage and took out the basket inside. Gu Jinchu gently placed it inside, his eyes full of heartache.

She frowned slightly and told the servants, "Go get a basin of warm water... Baizhi, come over here and take a look at it."

Bai He ran in panting, holding a medicine box in his arms, his face full of anxiety and he looked at a loss.

She stood beside her master and whispered, "Madam..."

Seeing her frightened look, Gu Jinchu smiled and said, "You're right. People can't be stubborn. Only by doing what you are good at can you solve problems."

Seeing Bai He's smile, he changed the subject: "You should be rewarded for doing the right thing. It's not advisable to make decisions on your own... I was supposed to reward you with two pieces of candy, but I'll ask Mother Cheng to give you an extra chicken drumstick tonight."

Bai He rubbed his palm on his clothes, his eyes regained their spirit and spirit, and he smiled brightly: "Thank you, Madam, I know I was wrong."

Gu Jinchu smiled and looked at the bean buns on the kang table.

Baizhi was very skillful. She had already cleaned the wound and was now bandaging the wound on its front paw.

Doubao felt uncomfortable and moved his head around, and from time to time he lowered his head to lick the invisible and unreachable wounds.

Perhaps because it had been injured before, it meowed for a while and then lay motionless in the basket.

Bai Zhi packed up the medicine box, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The wound is quite deep, probably because he stepped on a sharp object. Madam, don't worry, fortunately, Doubao's bones were not injured, and the wound will heal in a few days with medicine."

Gu Jinchu felt relieved after hearing Bai Zhi's words.

She put the dried fish she had promised it in a basket and had the cage placed in a sunny place.

Doubao was loyal to his master, and the servants of Yuanyuan Hall liked him even more. Now they all looked distressed and lay there looking at him.

Upon seeing this, Mother Cheng and Mother Xu asked the chattering girls to quiet down.

The maids and servants all went off to take care of their own things, leaving only the two senior maids, Baizhi and Baishao, in the room to serve.

Gu Jinchu then picked up the red gold bracelet, which was still stained with Doubao's blood. This was the one given to her by the Sixth Prince.

She took the wet towel handed to her by the maid and wiped off the stain, only then did she understand why Doubao was injured.

The bracelet is hollow because it fell from a great height and the gemstones broke into pieces, leaving the joints a bit sharp.

Maybe this is why Doubao got injured.

Bai Shao is responsible for Gu Jinchu's dressing box and daily makeup and hair.

She stood beside the lady, tilted her head to look at the bracelet on her fingertips, and said softly, "I'll have someone send it to the Treasure Pavilion. Maybe it can be repaired."

The gems on it are not precious and replacements can be found. Red gold jewelry can be forged at will.

Repairing this bracelet is not a difficult task for the craftsmen of the Treasure Pavilion.

Gu Jinchu thought to himself that only close relatives or people with whom one has a very good relationship would ask whether one is satisfied with the gift given.

The Sixth Prince sent this bracelet to us through the eldest princess. I believe what he wanted to say was this.

She placed the red gold bracelet on the table in front of her, put down the teacup in her hand, and naturally placed her hand on her lower abdomen.

After she withdrew her gaze, she asked Bai Shao to find the jade bracelet that Concubine Shu had awarded her.

Doctor Wu once said that she had come into contact with anything that could harm the fetus.

Bai Zhi and Mother Xu would carefully examine the items sent to Yuan Yuan Tang. Even the bracelet that Fifth Master Jiang brought back from Huguo Temple was checked by Bai Zhi without any hesitation.

The only thing that was missing was the gold-thread jade bracelet that Concubine Shu gave as a reward when she went to the palace to express gratitude after her marriage.

She had only worn the jade bracelet twice. Once was when Concubine Shu personally put it on her hand; another time was when her maternal grandfather's hot pot restaurant opened. She thought the eldest princess would also be there, so she also wore the jade bracelet given by Concubine Shu.

If you sow the seeds of doubt in your heart, the past will come flooding back like a spring.

Before leaving the house that day, she and Master Jiang Wu went to Minghui Hall to pay their respects to Old Madam Jiang, and coincidentally saw Nanny Yuan.

Now that she thought about it, Nanny Yuan's gaze that seemed to be sweeping towards her was centered around her wrist.

At that time, she thought that the jade bracelet was given by Concubine Shu...

Soon, Bai Shao brought out an exquisite brocade box, inside of which was the gold-thread jade bracelet.

Bai Zhi reached out her hand before her master and asked in a low voice: "Master, are you suspicious..."

Seeing this, Bai Shao took the tray and tiptoed out, gently closed the door of the west room, and stood outside to guard it.

The sunlight cast a long shadow behind her, as if expressing the solemnity of the moment.

Gu Jinchu had no expression on his face and motioned Bai Zhi to take out the bracelet.

The jade is warm and each grain is evenly distributed and full.

The jade beads are decorated with connected gold pieces with cloud patterns above and below, and each round bead is fixed with gold wire.

On one side there are lotus and flower shapes, and just by looking at it, you can feel its preciousness and uniqueness.

Bai Zhi lowered her head and smelled it, her brows furrowed, she only hated her own lack of talent and knowledge and could not discover anything.

At this moment, Gu Jinchu thought that the reason why Doubao became irritable that day was because Wang Yuran's fingertips were stained with something that could harm the fetus.

She couldn't help but recall that there were two times in the past when she fed Doubao with her own hands, but it showed no interest both times.

At that time, she just thought it was not hungry. According to the time, it seemed to have happened just after she put on the jade bracelet.

At the signal from her wife, Bai Zhizi walked towards Dou Bao who was not far away, holding the brocade box.

Sure enough, when Baizhi placed the jade bracelet next to the cage, the quiet Doubao inside became irritable, hunched his body, and let out a low growl from his throat.

Gu Jinchu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt a little upset in his chest for a moment.

Bai Zhi knelt at Gu Jinchu's feet holding the jade bracelet in her hand. She lowered her voice very low, her face full of shock and worry: "Madam, I will ask someone to invite the Fifth Master back... After all, Concubine Shu is the Fifth Master's eldest sister..."

She felt that the object in her hand weighed a thousand pounds, and she couldn't believe that the noble concubine in the palace would hurt her master.

Concubine Shu and the Fifth Master are siblings from the same mother!

Gu Jinchu reached out to take the jade bracelet, but the maid dodged it by moving sideways. Bai Zhi's eyes were red, and she said anxiously: "Master, although it's just a suspicion, if it's true... you are pregnant, so you must not touch it!"

"Smash it open!" A hint of determination flashed in Gu Jinchu's eyes.

No matter who it is, we have to get to the bottom of this first!
