Hearing Xia Zhihe's voice, Sun Jiaolan felt happy and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew very well that as long as Xia Zhihe came, half of her plan for today would be ruined!
Contrary to Sun Jiaolan, the look on Li's face was not very good. Although she didn't know what kind of medicine Sun Jiaolan was selling in this gourd, she knew that it was definitely not a good thing for her!
Sure enough, as soon as Xia Zhihe appeared, he immediately ran to Sun Jiaolan's side, took the person from the maid's arms, and held her tightly in his arms, with a look full of nervousness and anxiety.
"What's wrong with Lan'er? Where's the doctor? Why hasn't the doctor come yet?" Xia Zhihe asked urgently.
As soon as Xia Zhihe opened his mouth, Mrs. Li's face looked a little unhappy, and she glared at Sun Jiaolan's maid, obviously telling the latter not to talk too much.
But the maid was brought by Sun Jiaolan from her mother's family, so she was naturally on Sun Jiaolan's side. What's more, the maid knew very well that she was already tied to Sun Jiaolan. If she didn't help Sun Jiaolan act as planned, then Mr. Li will still be cruel to him afterwards, and there is no way he will be merciful.
So the maid gritted her teeth and immediately replied with tears in her eyes: "Sir, my aunt was standing aside just now to serve Madam, but she suddenly fainted for some reason. I wanted to beg Madam to find a doctor to take a look at my aunt, but Madam But he was not allowed to call the doctor, saying that he would be sent directly to the house, so he didn’t call the doctor yet..."
Just as the maid was replying, Sun Jiaolan's father, Mr. Sun, and Mr. Li's father, Mr. Li Ge, also happened to follow. They were with Xia Zhihe just now, so they naturally heard the palace official's report.
When Master Sun heard this, his face suddenly darkened. Although he didn't say anything, his anger was obvious.
Mr. Li Ge on the side suddenly felt extremely embarrassed, because isn't Mrs. Li his legitimate daughter?
Mr. Li Ge's eyes suddenly looked gloomy when he looked at Ms. Li, mixed with a strong look of disappointment. This daughter was really disappointing him more and more.
Sure enough, I loved her too much in the past, so that she became like this now. She only cared about herself in everything, and didn't consider her husband's family, her natal family, or even her father at all!
Today's Mr. Li is not only selfish, but he can't even do the minimum thing of not causing trouble for his family!
The more Mr. Li thought about it, the angrier he became. Mr. Li had failed to handle all the matters related to Xia Luotong before, and had caused a lot of trouble for the prince for nothing, so much so that he had been reprimanded by the prince several times.
Now the prince is happy to have won over the Sun family, but as an unfilial daughter, he is tormenting Mr. Sun's daughter, and he is really ruthless in causing trouble!
Mr. Li Ge was very angry because of Mr. Li's commotion, and looked at Mr. Li with a particularly stern look. Xia Zhihe, who was in the center, was also very angry. However, it was because of Mr. Li's presence that he was just cold. He glanced at Mr. Li coldly without saying much.
After all, Mrs. Li is the biological daughter of Mr. Li Ge. Mr. Li can beat and scold her, but as his son-in-law, Xia Zhihe cannot ignore these things.
But just this glance from Xia Zhihe was enough for many people to spot the clues. It seems that the recent rumors about Xia Mansion are somewhat true...
There were so many people at this time that Xia Zhihe couldn't say anything to Mr. Li in public, so he could only tell the maid: "Go and call the imperial doctor quickly!"
The maid quickly agreed, got up and ran out.
Ms. Li was treated coldly by her father Li Gelao and Xia Zhihe one after another, and then her maid told the truth in public. She suddenly felt that her face was dull, but what happened just now was seen by everyone, and she had no way to defend herself.
So she could only grit her teeth and argue: "Aunt Sun is fine on weekdays. I thought she might be tired, so I wanted someone to send her home to rest. I have good intentions."
Not to mention the parties involved, even the guests who were watching didn't believe this.
Xia Zhihe was anxious and angry. Hearing Li's sophistry, he didn't even want to pay attention to it. He just looked down at Sun Jiaolan in his arms, and occasionally looked at the direction the maid was leaving. He didn't even want to give Li a glance. Shi.
Being ignored by Xia Zhihe in this way, coupled with the different looks from around her, Li felt a burning pain on her face. She was really humiliated!
She never thought that her legitimate daughter, the dignified elder Li Ge, would have such a shameful day, and all of this was thanks to this bitch Sun Jiaolan!
At this time, Mrs. Li wished that Sun Jiaolan would just die like this! Ever since this woman appeared, he has not been able to live in peace for a day, and his position in the house has been threatened like never before!
Just when everyone was thinking about things in different ways, the maid came back with the imperial doctor.
Normally, there would be a doctor at any time for a larger banquet, not to mention that today was the day for the prince to accept his concubine. The banquet was held in the East Palace, so naturally there would be an imperial doctor on standby at any time, so the maid came back very quickly.
The imperial doctor trotted all the way to Sun Jiaolan. Under Xia Zhihe's repeated urging, he quickly knelt down to diagnose Sun Jiaolan's pulse.
However, the next moment, the imperial doctor smiled, and under Xia Zhihe's puzzled gaze, he said congratulations: "Congratulations, Mr. Xia, this aunt is happy!"
"Are you happy? Lan'er is pregnant?!" The expression on Xia Zhihe's face changed from confusion to surprise. Finally, he couldn't help but smile widely and confirmed with the imperial doctor again.
"That's right! This aunt is pregnant! But the month is still young, so she still needs to take a good rest." The imperial doctor said with a smile, but at the end, he looked at Master Sun calmly.
He was bought by Mr. Sun early, and his purpose was very simple, that is, not to tell the true time of Sun Jiaolan's pregnancy, so he just vaguely said "the month is still young" and did not say the specific time. If anything happens in the future, it won't be his fault.
Xia Zhihe was overjoyed when he got the confirmation from the imperial doctor, but his smile soon turned into worry. Looking at the "coma" Sun Jiaolan, he asked nervously: "But she suddenly fainted just now, but what's wrong?"
The imperial doctor smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, Mr. Xia. This aunt is just tired. It's nothing serious. She will just rest for a few days after returning home."
Xia Zhihe felt relieved, but looking at Sun Jiaolan who was still unconscious in his arms, he couldn't help scolding the maid: "How did you serve my aunt? You even made her faint from exhaustion!"
Although the maid was reprimanded, she felt happy and quickly put on an aggrieved look and said: "To tell you what I'm saying, I'm wronged! I've been serving my aunt with all my heart, and I don't dare to slack off at all!"
"Then how could she faint from exhaustion?" Xia Zhihe looked disbelieving.
