If it were an ordinary family, the mother-in-law would not be qualified to question her uncle.
But Mrs. Yang's status is different. Even if the second wife is a member of the Lu family, this honor is not earned by them.
If it weren't for Lu Hanxiao, Lu Zhiyuan might not be able to reach a family like the Yang family.
But even so, she still looked unhappy when she heard Mrs. Yang's rude question.
"Mom, can we wait until everything is over with Qian'er?"
He didn't know what was happening, but he had a vague feeling that this matter was not simple.
He was worried that it would involve him, and it would drag on for a while.
If the child is born and he is really implicated, the Yang family will not blame him for the sake of the child.
Lu Zhiyuan's calculations were ringing in his mind, but this time the old lady was not of the same mind as him.
"Let's talk about it after it's over. If we don't give Qianqian an explanation for this matter, will she be able to feel at ease when she gives birth to the baby inside?"
"Mom, it's better to wait until Qian'er gives birth and let her speak for herself. There must be some misunderstanding here."
"There can be any misunderstanding. It's just that some people don't like you and Qianqian."
She glanced at Si Ning intentionally or unintentionally, and the meaning of her words was already obvious.
Mrs. Yang's eyes darkened and she asked in a deep voice.
"Mom, my Qian'er came out of the Third Young Master's room. Aren't you afraid of offending other people's hearts by criticizing her without any basis? How dare I leave this matter to you for investigation? !”
When it comes to protecting Si Ning, Mrs. Yang is also duty-bound.
She had heard too much about Si Ning from her sister, and combined with her contact with her, she believed that Si Ning would never do such a sinful thing.
Besides, there was no need for Si Ning to do this. She knew how terrible the Ning'an Marquis Mansion was for her husband's family, but she didn't expect the old lady to be so unreasonable.
The British princess also said from the side, "Indeed, everything must be justified. If you can't give my Qian'er the truth, then I will come and investigate it myself."
"My mother-in-law, you..."
"Okay, mother, Qian'er's body is the main priority. Let's take a look at the situation first."
Lu Zhiyuan interrupted the old lady's words, and then raised his hand to Mrs. Yang.
"Mother, check on Qian'er first."
The British princess on the side winked at Mrs. Yang, but Mrs. Yang didn't say anything else.
Lu Zhiyuan had someone bring chairs for the two of them and asked them to sit down next to the old lady.
Mrs. Yang did not give the Lu family this face and chose the seat next to Si Ning.
Seeing this, the British princess sighed silently and walked towards Si Ning.
Lu Zhiyuan looked embarrassed, his lowered hands clenched tightly into fists, and his brows showed indifference.
As soon as Mrs. Yang sat down and saw Si Ning, her eyes turned red again.
Si Ning was very grateful for Mrs. Yang's protection. He stretched out his hand to apply it and comforted her softly.
"It'll be fine, isn't there still me?"
Mrs. Yang was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Si Ning had another level of identity.
She nodded vigorously, her anxious heart relieved a little by Si Ning's words.
At this moment, Po Wen ran out in a hurry and exclaimed.
"It's not good, the second lady suffered a hemorrhage, and the child... the child still can't come out."
Everyone stood up from their chairs, and Mrs. Lu's breathing became rapid.
"What should I do? What should I do?"
Lu Zhiyuan lost his calmness just now. If Mrs. Yang and the British Duchess were not here, what else could he say? But now that they are here, it is hard to talk about protecting the young and not the old.
"Call the doctor and let him go in and have a look." said the British princess who had never spoken.
"no!"
"no!"
The Lu family mother and son objected at the same time.
Lu Zhiyuan explained, "Qian'er is a woman after all. How can a man go check it out at this time?"
After saying this, the old lady nodded in agreement, "How does a woman behave when someone looks at her body?"
"What kind of propriety is there at this time? Human life is at stake."
"No, I don't agree."
While the two sides were arguing, they were interrupted by a voice.
"I go."
Everyone looked around and saw Si Ning standing up.
Mrs. Yang nodded gratefully to Si Ning, and the British father-in-law also hurriedly said.
"Third Young Mistress, Qian'er will leave it to you."
Lu Zhiyuan also urged, "Brothers and sisters, we must save the child, our second wife depends on you."
Although the old lady had just hinted that Si Ning had harmed Wu Qianqian, she actually knew very well that Si Ning would not do this.
And now only Si Ning could save her precious grandson. She reluctantly looked away without saying anything.
But someone stopped Si Ning from entering the delivery room.
"no!"
Si Ning looked sideways and saw Mrs. Zhang taking a step forward and speaking under the gaze of everyone.
From beginning to end, Mrs. Zhang stood aside and no one noticed her.
Even the old lady automatically ignored her, let alone Mrs. Yang and the British father-in-law. They only regarded her as some distant relative of the Lu family or a guest, and didn't think much about it, and they didn't have the time to chat with her.
Now that she saw her standing up to stop him, Mrs. Yang's face darkened instantly.
However, she did not confront Mrs. Yang. Instead, she turned around and pulled Si Ning inside.
However, Mrs. Yang took a step forward to block the way of the two of them and said sternly.
"I said, she can't go in..."
"Wan Niang, get out of the way first!"
Lu Zhiyuan was anxious and couldn't care about so much, so he called out.
Hearing him calling a strange woman so intimately, Mrs. Yang frowned, but she didn't have time to care about such a thing at the moment, so she pulled Si Ning to avoid it.
Mrs. Yang, however, refused to give up and once again blocked the way of the two of them.
She looked at Si Ning, then met Mrs. Yang's murderous gaze, and said with a half-smile.
"Are you really sure you want a murderer to go in and save Wu Qianqian?"
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Yang took out a piece of letter paper from her pocket, unfolded it and held it in front of Mrs. Yang. "Madam, you should let someone take a look at this recipe first, and then decide whether to let this woman in."
The prescription she held in her hand was the prescription that Si Ning prescribed for Wu Qianqian to calm her nerves.
Lu Zhiyuan had seen Fang Zi, so he recognized what it was and asked in confusion.
"Wan Niang, what do you mean?"
Mrs. Yang sneered and said, "Zhiyuan, I'm worried that someone is doing harm to the Second Madam. I also reminded you that you should be more careful with anything that the Second Madam puts into your mouth. This recipe was originally going to be taken to my subordinates for inspection, but The guys were too busy to take care of it. They looked at it afterwards and told me the recipe..."
"What's wrong with this recipe?" Lu Zhiyuan asked impatiently.
Mrs. Zhang glanced past him, then looked at Si Ning, and continued speaking in a loud voice.
"This recipe contains motherwort. If this medicine is given to postpartum women, it can help the woman eliminate lochia. But if it is given to a pregnant woman, it is equivalent to... abortion!"
