Chapter 231: 231 Judgment

231 Judgment

When Yu Yan saw Yang Meiniang’s panicked expression, she felt a little strange. “That’s right! Qin Gui’s wife said that the two old women on the stove made something unclean and affected Madam’s stomach. Eldest Miss locked them up in a fit of anger and said that she would starve them for a few days.”

Yang Meiniang heaved a sigh of relief. “Oh! They should starve for a few days!”

At the end of the hour, Madam Qin woke up from her stomachache. After excreting a lot of smelly black and red feces, she felt much more relaxed.

Auntie Qin said happily, “Madam, Doctor Wen is indeed a divine doctor! He said that after you expel the poison and take the antidote a few times, you will be able to clean up the remaining poison. At that time, he will prescribe you some medicine to nourish your body.”

Looking at her two daughters sleeping soundly on the bed, she felt extremely glad and whispered, “Yes! I’m really lucky! When I get better, I have to thank Doctor Wen for saving my life.”

Aunt Qin nodded and said, “We have to thank Mr. Wen properly. Madam, the two old women on the stove are still locked in the storeroom. I’m afraid it’ll be a month before the children’s uncle comes. What do you think?”

Madam Qin thought for a moment and said, “Lock them up first. When my body loosens a little tomorrow, I’ll interrogate them myself.”

Aunt Qin looked at Madam Qin’s weak appearance and said with heartache, “Yes, rest for a while more. I’ll go to the stove and bring you the nourishing soup.”

County Lieutenant Yu returned from the government office and went to Madam Qin’s room. He saw Madam Qin and her two daughters lying on the bed together. He stood in front of the bed for a while and walked out quietly.

Madam Qin opened her eyes and watched County Lieutenant Yu walk out calmly. She felt that the trace of hatred in her heart had disappeared.

When Zhou Jia returned from work, it was already early in the evening. After eating and washing up, he returned to his room and said to Li Yu, who was waiting by the bed, “Yu’er, the official document from the Qingzhou Prefecture regarding Madam Su’s murder case has been handed down. They have agreed to the execution. The official document has been reported to the Ministry of Justice. It will be finalized after the Ministry of Justice issues a statement.

“We still need the Ministry of Justice to approve it? I thought it was already the final verdict!”

Seeing Li Yu’s surprised expression, Zhou Jia stood up and gestured with his hands. He smiled and said, “Silly, do you think it’s like in the drama where you can just behead a person after making the verdict? It’s a matter of life and death and has to be approved by the Ministry of Justice.”

Li Yu recalled the television drama in her previous life. It was true. The criminal would be pronounced guilty before getting dragged out to be beheaded.

She couldn’t help but look at Zhou Jia and laugh. “Yes! I really thought it was just like in the drama.”

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu’s smiling face and walked forward to hug her. He kissed her and muttered, “Yu’er, my baby, you’re so beautiful!”

The next morning, Li Yu slept until late in the morning before getting up. Yu Niang looked at Li Yu, who looked even more beautiful and smiled at Xiaoyu. “Madam must be pregnant with Young Master. Look, she’s getting better after getting pregnant.”

Xiaoyu pointed at her face. “Look, why are there so many spots on my face? Madam’s face is as fair and delicate as a peeled egg.”

Seeing the two of them muttering, Li Yu asked guiltily with a red face, “What are you two mumbling about? Tell me what’s so strange!”

“It’s just that there’s something rare! It’s rare that you’re still looking better when you’re pregnant.” Xiaoyu pointed at her face. “Look, my face is covered in spots. It’s so ugly. Madam, what secret formula did you use? Tell me.”

“Silly girl, won’t I tell you if I have a secret formula? You have pregnancy spots. They will fade after the baby is born.” Li Yu touched Xiaoyu’s face playfully. “Our little beauty has always been so good-looking. Your Ruyi won’t despise you.”

Seeing Li Yu’s roguish appearance, Yu Niang smiled and said, “Madam, you look like a lecher.”

Li Yu said seriously, “Madam, I don’t look like a lecher. Is there a lecher as serious as me?” The few of them laughed.

A few days later, Li Yu and Xiaoyu sat under the eaves and took the shade while sewing. Xiaoyu said, “Madam, I did as you said and boiled the child’s clothes, scissors, and gauze. I dried them in the courtyard.”

Li Yu instructed, “Remember to tell the midwife that the scissors can only be used after being soaked in strong alcohol.”

“I’ll keep it in mind. I saw that the baby was due in a few days, so I prepared it in advance.”

At this moment, Uncle Liu, who was guarding the door, reported, “Madam, Madam Qin requests an audience.”

When Li Yu heard this, she thought that Madam Qin must have recovered. Sir’s medical skills were indeed exquisite. “Quickly invite Madam Qin in.”

A moment later, Madam Qin walked into the courtyard with Auntie Qin, who was carrying a stack of boxes. Li Yu saw that Madam Qin’s expression had improved a lot and she was much more energetic. Li Yu smiled and went up to her and said politely, “Madam Qin, you look much better. Please come in and sit.”

Madam Qin bowed gratefully to Li Yu. “Madam Li, thank you for your help. I specially came today to thank Doctor Wen for his help. These are small gifts.”

Li Yu saw the stack of gift boxes in Auntie Qin’s arms and rejected her. “Madam Qin, you…”

“Madam, don’t despise my gifts. They’re a little token of my appreciation.” Before Li Yu could finish speaking, Madam Qin asked Auntie Qin to place the gift box in Yu Niang’s arms.

Seeing that Madam Qin insisted on sending them, Li Yu could only let Yu Niang accept it. She brought Madam Qin all the way to the hall and said with a smile, “Madam Qin, you’re treating me like an outsider. Sir has gone to the countryside to do volunteer medical treatment these few days. Sir often says that he’s a doctor who studies medicine to save the dying and heal the injured. Besides, we’re neighbors. We should help each other!”

When Madam Qin heard this, her eyes were wet. She wanted to bow again, but Li Yu hurriedly helped her up and pulled her to a chair to sit down. Madam Qin said gratefully, “Madam, if you and Doctor Wen hadn’t saved me this time, my three children and I would have been separated forever. My eldest son, Yuhua, has just turned 18 this year and is going to get married next year. He’s still studying at the Qingzhou Academy now. My two daughters are only 15 or 16 years old! With his father’s muddle-headed personality, his children will be bullied by others in the future had I died.”

When Li Yu heard this, she recalled County Lieutenant Yu’s muddle-headedness. If he was instigated by someone with ulterior motives, it was entirely possible that he would treat Madam Qin’s children badly. She could only comfort her. “That’s right! Men are never as attentive as women. It’s inevitable that they’re a little careless with children. They’re not as considerate as their biological mother.”

Madam Qin smiled bitterly at Li Yu and said, “Madam Li, I feel like we have an affinity at first sight. I’m not afraid of you laughing at me. I want to confide in you. Otherwise, I’ll suffocate to death in my heart.”

Li Yu nodded and smiled. She thought to herself that she had become an aunt agony.
