Chapter 470 The Tragic Death of a Concubine 3
A few nights later, the bodies of Zhenzhu's family were placed on a cart by the servants of the mansion and taken directly to the mass grave.
From then on, no one mentioned the name Pearl again.
It was as if their family had never existed.
The main courtyard of the second house suddenly became quiet.
Ning Yan finally found an opportunity to leave the house.
After all, several people were killed. The Second Lady couldn't sleep well at night, so her wet nurse, Aunt Wu, asked her to go out and burn some incense to relax.
As soon as they left the house, Ning Yan dressed up and climbed over the wall to go out onto the street.
Things went smoothly. She bought the medicine and made pills in the morning. In the afternoon, she found the so-called "Taoist priest". After testing him, she was sure that he did know some medical knowledge, so she gave him the pills.
He gave several instructions, "Don't worry, this medicine is safe. If you are worried, I will tell you the prescription again..."
Ning Yan really told him the prescription.
As soon as the Taoist heard the names of these medicinal herbs, he knew that the prescription was real and that it did have the effect of promoting pregnancy. Moreover, it was about helping people have children and there was money to be made, so he was naturally happy to listen.
"Girl, I don't understand, what do you want by using my hand to deliver the pills?"
"Of course it's for the money! We'll split the profits in half after the deal is done!
Don't think of taking the money and running away. There are many rich people in the capital who want children. As long as Madam Ji gets pregnant, your reputation as a Taoist priest who helps children get born will be known, and the money will come pouring in, right?
Also, although I have told you the recipe, the dosage is a big deal. A slight mistake can make a world of difference. Not only will it have no effect, it may also harm people.
So, if you want to earn more money and live the best life, just cooperate with me and we will be rich and prosperous together!"
The Taoist priest was moved, "Okay, I'll listen to you! I will definitely cooperate with you."
When Ning Yan saw him go, she returned home and continued to embroider the lady's clothes behind closed doors.
Fortunately, she also has these embroidery skills and can learn all kinds of embroidery methods. Otherwise, if the original owner had chosen this kind of job, she really wouldn't be able to handle it.
The second wife is not at home.
There was laughter and joy over there on the first lady's side, and the second master slept in her room every day.
The first lady had bright eyes and a kind look, a gentle and generous personality, and was the legitimate daughter of a third-rank official. As soon as she got married, she was loved by her parents-in-law.
Even the second master has a good impression of her.
Otherwise, why would you come up with the idea of taking care of both rooms?
No wonder the second master runs to the main courtyard all day long.
If the family didn't rely on the second wife's money, he would not even give her basic respect.
The Second Lady couldn't see through the situation and still had fantasies about the Second Master and even wanted to have a child for him.
What's the point of having a child with a man like this? Can't he just spend the money on himself?
But few people of this era would think this way, so in her previous life she chose the original owner to bear children for her husband, and then deliberately rewarded the original owner with countless good things for her to eat. In the end, she died of dystocia due to the large fetus.
Think that's all?
No, when the original owner first revealed that she was pregnant, she would step on oil every time she went out of the door and see snakes when she went to the toilet. The original owner was timid and did not dare to go out.
Later, there was an inexplicable smell in the room, and she sniffed around the room bit by bit like a dog, and finally found the musk that someone had hidden in her room.
She actually didn't know that the thing inside could cause miscarriage, but the sudden appearance of such a thing must be something bad, so she took out the contents of her purse overnight, buried it in the flowerpot under the courtyard wall, and stuffed some more things in it, filling it up as time went by.
By the late stage of her pregnancy, she already knew that her fetus was too large. She thought about not eating those things, but the Second Lady's people would serve her until she finished eating every day before leaving.
She ate those things even though she knew she was going to die.
So, she died with her eyes open!
The Second Lady wanted the baby in her belly, so the person who sprinkled oil and caught snakes to scare her couldn't be the Second Lady.
Pearl may blame the original owner, but she is the second wife's confidant, and she knows that the original owner will die, so there is no need for her to take action. Then the only person in the family who least wants the original owner's child to be born is that person.
These people deserve to die!
The second lady stayed in the temple for two nights and went down the mountain early on the third day.
On the way back to the city, I happened to meet an old Taoist holding a flag.
The Second Lady immediately asked Aunt Wu to go forward and ask. When she learned that the other party had pills for conceiving a child, she was overjoyed and called the person over to buy two pills.
But the scholar refused.
"I do have a fertility drug here, but it can only be given to the right person. Otherwise, it will be useless. Wouldn't that waste my good medicine? This pill is worth a thousand taels!"
The second wife's remaining two points of doubt disappeared. This is a real master. As long as he can make her pregnant successfully, what is one thousand taels?
She would also give 10,000 taels!
So, the two parties found a teahouse. After the old Taoist washed his hands, he felt the pulse of the second lady through the handkerchief. After a long time, the old Taoist said, "Madam, your body... Hey~"
This cry of "Ah" made the Second Madam, the two maids and Madam Wu all worried, "Master, what happened to our Madam?"
"Madam, you have been tricked by someone else!
Your body is in good condition, so there is no problem with pregnancy..."
The second lady's expression suddenly changed. "Are you saying that I was poisoned?"
"You must have taken medicine that causes uterine coldness by mistake, which is why it's difficult for you to get pregnant.
Fortunately, the Taoist priest took my pulse, otherwise I would have wasted a good medicine."
The second wife's face turned pale and she was disheartened. "It seems that I am destined to never have a child in this life?"
"Who said that? I can cure your disease!"
……
Half a quarter of an hour later, the second lady came out of the teahouse with two small medicine bottles in her arms. After getting on the carriage, she told the driver to return home immediately.
"Madam, do you believe what the Taoist said?"
"Why, do you think there's something wrong with him?"
"No, I just feel that you have seen doctors before, why didn't they find anything?"
It would have been fine if we didn't mention this. As soon as we mentioned this, the second lady's eyes immediately became dangerous, "Let's go find a clinic to see a doctor."
Aunt Wu also thought of something and quickly called the coachman to go to the clinic.
The doctor at home is often used and easy to use.
It's impossible for her to bribe everyone outside!
I quickly found a not-too-big clinic. The doctor was a middle-aged man whom I had never seen before.
The second wife got out of the car and went in to have the doctor take her pulse.
"How many children does Madam have?"
Second wife: "We have been married for four years and have no children."
"Alas, Madam, your palace is cold. It will be difficult for you to have children in the future."
Second Lady: It turns out that there is something wrong with her body, but the doctor in front of me does not have the skills of the Taoist priest, so his explanation is not very comprehensive.
He winked at Madam Wu, who gave him one or two taels of silver as consultation fee, and the group mounted their horses and left. (End of this chapter)
