That night, Cai Ru brought the best abortifacient medicine and shuttled through the courtyard of Bai Jing and the rest.
Coincidentally, she had just figured out the situation on both sides when she met two groups of people who came to cause trouble.
The first group to arrive was sent by Jun Rongrong.
Although she was not well liked by Bai Jing and Zhao Xun, she and her mother were not good at getting money from Zhao Yixuan previously.
At that time, Zhao Xun was heartless and unscrupulous, and threw her into the courtyard to spy on the prescription.
At that time, Jun Rongrong was stubborn and did not take out the silver that she had hidden and survived.
After that, she was sent to Bai Jing's hands by Lin Mengya, and her days were getting worse day by day.
She simply made up her mind and secretly took out the silver that she had hidden and used this money to bribe a few servants of the Zhao Family.
After that, she found a chance to drug Zhao Xun.
She didn't expect that she would be pregnant after just one time.
She had thought that this was her luck changing for the better. Who knew that Xian Huan, that slut, was actually pregnant!
This made Jun Rongrong's hatred towards Xian Huan reach its peak.
Especially when Bai Jing said clearly that only the person who gave birth to her eldest grandson could enter the Zhao Family, the other person would probably not have a good ending.
So for the future of herself and her child, Jun Rongrong used all her strength to kill that slut Xian Huan and the little bastard in her womb.
Using the excuse of pregnancy, she used the silver and let the few people that she had bribed before to serve under her.
These people also felt that they might be successful if they followed her, so they started to spare no effort to help her fight for the position of Young Madam.
Taking advantage of the night when there was no one around, Jun Rongrong let two people come over to exchange the abortifacient medicine for Xian Huan.
Because both of them were wary of each other, their meals were all arranged by Bai Jing's people.
These years, Jun Rongrong had learned a lot of shady tricks from her mother. Those that could be bribed with money would be bribed with money, and those that could not be bribed with money, she would think of ways to lure them away.
When there was no one in the kitchen, the two people quickly slipped in and mixed a bag of abortifacient medicine that had already been ground into powder into the abortifacient medicine for Xian Huan.
"Hurry up, they will be back soon!"
The other one in charge of wind protection urged.
The people inside stirred up the mess and wiped it with a rag. After eliminating the visible evidence, the two of them slipped away under the cover of the night.
Soon, the old maid in charge of guarding the kitchen came back.
She was quite serious. She opened the lid of the medicine furnace to take a look, but she couldn't see anything special about it. Only then did she continue to boil the medicine with ease.
To Cai Ru, changing a small medicine jar was not difficult at all.
Just as she was about to act, another voice came from the kitchen door.
The old woman who was looking at the fire was stunned, but then she found a thin figure appearing in front of her. She said in surprise, "Second Young Master, why are you here so late?"
Zhao Jue smiled, his handsome face somewhat bashful.
"I'm a little hungry, so I came to the kitchen to find something to eat. Mom, why haven't you gone to bed so late? You must be tired."
Seeing him, the old maid relaxed a little.
To servants like them, Zhao Jue was not a proper master.
Back in the South Courtyard, the mother and son's lives were even worse than theirs.
However, he had always been a sweet talker, so the old maids and maids in the kitchen would secretly help him out.
But more or less, they had some pity and an indescribable sense of superiority towards him.
But Zhao Jue didn't seem to care too much.
As a result, the servants became even less wary of him.
"Tsk, it's all because of Young Master's two women!"
The old maid lowered her voice and complained with some dissatisfaction, "Who hasn't given birth before? It's these two shameless guys who really know how to torment people. Yesterday, the doctor came over to prescribe medicine for the miscarriage, and they want me to brew it now. They really can't stop. "
It was actually not easy to work under Bai Jing.
As the mistress of the family, she couldn't even tolerate her husband's concubines and illegitimate sons. Naturally, she wouldn't be very good to servants like them.
Beating and scolding them at every turn and deducting their monthly allowance were all light punishments.
Whenever their masters were unhappy, they, the servants, would become their masters' punching bags. Killing and maiming were common occurrences.
But being born in an extremely closed clan like the aboriginals, they had no other choice but to endure.
Therefore, even if they held a grudge in their hearts, they could only hold it in. After all, their lives were nothing in the eyes of their masters.
"I see. Mom is really working hard."
Zhao Jue listened to the old maid's complaints calmly.
But his eyes never left the two medicine jars.
The old maid gave him two cold steamed buns and poured him a bowl of hot water.
Looking at the hard dry food, Zhao Jue actually had no appetite at all.
After watching the old maid yawn a few times, he said softly, "Why don't I watch for mom for a while?"
"How, how can you do that?" The old maid in the kitchen shook her head, but in fact, she was already a little tempted.
Seeing this, Zhao Jue put the steamed buns on the pot and reached out to take the fan from the old maid.
"What's so difficult about that? It's nothing more than watching the fire and not letting the things inside dry up. Mom, you forgot that my aunt used to get sick often. Didn't I brew medicine for her every time? "
"But, this isn't very good, right?" The old maid was still a little hesitant.
But Zhao Jue said with a smile, "Why not? Since they are my eldest brother's children, they will be my nephews and nieces in the future. As their uncle, I brew some medicine for them. When they grow up in the future, won't they remember me? "
Looking at the old maid's hesitation, he sneered in his heart, but the smile on his face was a little stiff.
"Mom, you don't trust me, do you?"
After that, he took the initiative to put down the fan and said to the old maid with a sad face, "I just feel that mom has worked hard, and I really like my eldest brother's two children, so I …"
"Forget it, forget it. Just pretend that I didn't say this."
When he was about to leave, the old maid came to her senses and hurriedly stopped him.
"Second Young Master, what are you talking about? I don't trust others, but I trust you, Second Young Master. "
At her age, how could she do this kind of tiresome work that would make her stay up late?
Now someone volunteered to listen to the task. How could she really push him out?
What's more, he was the Second Young Master whom she had watched grow up.
She thought that she knew Zhao Jue best.
Zhao Jue had achieved his goal, so he quit while he was ahead.
Before the old maid left, she reminded him to boil it for another two hours before it could be filtered out, and then put it in the pot to be heated. Someone would come to collect it the next morning.
Zhao Jue noted it down before sending the old maid away.
At the start, he appeared to be very loyal and dutiful, and took good care of the medicine pot.
But in less than ten minutes, probably because he was sure that no one was watching, Zhao Jue threw the fan to the side.
"Heh, I didn't expect your luck to be so good."
The light from the fire in the kitchen, contrasted with
Zhao Jue's gloomy face.
Originally, the pregnancy of the Immortal Bracelet was the result of his calculations. But Jun Rongrong was also a formidable person.
But this disrupted a part of Zhao Jue's plan.
But this did not matter.
He took out two small medicine packets from his bosom.
Actually, he had arrived earlier, and saw Jun Rongrong's people tampering with the medicine of the Immortal Bracelet.
The child of the Immortal Bracelet was his hope, and naturally, it could not be wrong.
As for Jun Rongrong, the smile at the corner of his mouth was somewhat indifferent.
Even if the child could be born, it would certainly not affect his plan!
After that, Zhao Jue put the two packets of powder into Jun Rongrong's pot of medicine, and added an extra bowl of hot water, turning one bowl into two bowls, and put them in the pot. He left.
Cai Ru thought about it, and felt that if there were more people coming, it would not be good if they were found out.
She turned around and went to the courtyard of the two people, simply and violently knocked them out, and then poured the abortifacient pills into their mouths.
After that, she came back to report to Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya did not expect that the people on Bai Jing's side were complicated, and the situation was even more complicated.
However, as long as the two people took the abortifacient pills on time, even if they rolled on the ground all day, the child would not be born, so she no longer paid attention to the situation over there.
Sure enough, Bai Jing did not have time to find trouble with her.
Lin Mengya closed the door and lived her life peacefully.
Finally, it was almost the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar year.
Early in the morning, she received a letter from Auntie Fang, saying that she and Huo Xiao had really found Zhao Ziyan, and were already on the way back with him.
However, Zhao Ziyan's situation was not very good.
The specific situation was not clearly stated in the letter, but from Auntie Fang's description, it should not be too troublesome.
If everything went smoothly, they would be able to rush back for the Lantern Festival.
On the 15th day of the first lunar month, whether it was the Gong family or the aboriginals, they all had the custom of avoiding all kinds of illnesses, watching lanterns, and eating lanterns.
After receiving Auntie Fang's letter, Lin Mengya got everyone to work.
Although they could not go out and have fun, they could not treat themselves badly at home.
Moreover, when her brothers gave her the New Year's goods, they thought of this, so they sent her a lot of semi-finished lanterns.
She personally led the people to dig out the lanterns from the mountains of New Year's goods.
"Wow! This dragon lantern is so beautiful! "
Zhao Xiaodie looked at the dragon lantern that was longer than a house and exclaimed in surprise.
"I think this Hundred Flower Lantern is also very good!" Zhao Yunniang couldn't bear to part with another lantern.
The rest of the people were also dazzled.
These lanterns had been drawn and cut.
As long as the assembled skeleton was glued to the surface with paste, it would be ready to be used.
They had been cooped up in the palm-sized aboriginals all year round and could not see the prosperity of the outside world.
But now, Lin Mengya had only torn out a corner, and it was enough to make them click their tongues in amazement. It was as if they had seen a whole new world.
"Everyone, don't be idle. Help me out and let's strive to finish the lanterns by tonight. When they are ready tomorrow, everyone can enjoy it."
Lin Mengya organized everyone to boil the paste and glue the lanterns together.
When the sun set, all kinds of lanterns suddenly appeared in the sky above the small courtyard.
There were people, flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds, and beasts. There were also fairy tales, sceneries, calligraphy, paintings, and so on.
