In the clean and refreshing courtyard, there is a stone table and several stone piers, and at this moment Yao Bomei is sitting on one of the stone piers, and her two watery eyes look at the second lady without blinking: "Second sister, I came today because I want to ask you something." ”

"You ask. The second lady forcibly suppressed the pain in her heart, and said with a smile, the child is gone, no matter how painful it is, it is useless, you should cheer up as soon as possible, and then find a way to conceive a child.

"Second sister, how did you miscarry?"

"Eh, didn't I say it, it was because my body was too weak, and I didn't pay attention to rest, which eventually led to ......" Speaking of this, the second lady couldn't go on, she regretted it very much, regretted that she didn't take good care of her body at the beginning, and took pity on her child......

"Second sister, you misunderstood what I meant, I wanted to ask you ......" Speaking of this, Yao Bomei leaned forward, lowered her voice and asked, "You never suspected that your miscarriage was not an accident, didn't you?"

"What are you talking about!! Second Lady's pupils shrank suddenly, and her face instantly turned pale: "Sixth Sister...... You...... Do you know something......" The second lady's voice trembled a little when she said these words, and it could be seen that she was very excited at the moment.

Yao Bomei shook her head, then nodded again.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Second sister, someone warned me and said that I should beware of a person, because this person wanted to murder the child in my belly, and the other party also said, second sister, the child in your belly was not an accidental miscarriage, but artificially designed. ”

"Who...... Who is this person! Tell me, who is it!" The second lady reached out and grabbed Yao Bomei's arm, and grabbed it very hard, making Yao Bomei feel very painful.

"Second sister, you calm down first, let go of your hand, it hurts me when you catch it. ”

"Ah...... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I was a little impulsive just now...... Don't be offended......"

"Of course I don't blame you! If I hear this kind of news, I will be as impulsive as you, second sister, if you answer me honestly, you have never doubted it?"

The second lady was silent for a moment, and then let out a wry smile: "Is it useful to suspect? I have no evidence!"

"Well, you're a little skeptical. ”

"Sort of...... Tell me, who the hell is that person?"

"I can tell you, but you have to stay calm, you can't talk nonsense. ”

"Don't worry, I won't come nonsense! During this time, I have been cultivating myself, my temper has improved a lot, my self-control ability has become much stronger, and I will not do things as impulsively as before. ”

Yao Bomei took a deep breath, and then spit out four words: "Duanmu Qiuju." ”

"Is it her?" The second lady was taken aback, and looked at Yao Bomei with a dull gaze: "You doubt her?"

"You may not know that she went to see me yesterday......" Yao Bomei briefly recounted what happened last night, and also told the maid Xiaodong.

After listening to Yao Bomei's story, the second lady lowered her head and did not speak for a long time.

"Second sister, what do you think?" asked Yao Bomei.

"Huh......" The second lady slowly exhaled a turbid breath: "Listen to what you say...... I do remember something...... After I became pregnant, Duanmu Qiuju often came to visit me, and every time she would bring gifts and greet me, and I was very grateful to her at that time...... Looking back now, I feel that something is wrong, Duanmu Qiuju was too enthusiastic to me, too polite, before I was pregnant, Duanmu Qiuju was all love and ignored me, why did she be enthusiastic about me when I was pregnant? Did she deliberately approach me and murder the child in my womb when I was unprepared?"

"What the second sister said makes sense. Yao Bomei nodded: "From the beginning, Mu Qiuju was very cold to us, you are pregnant, she is enthusiastic about you, I am pregnant, she is also enthusiastic about me...... If there must be a relationship, it is also a competitive relationship, and after our child is born, it will compete with Duanmu Qiuju's child for family property, and it will even threaten Duanmu Qiuju's status in the mansion. ”

"You're to the point. "The second lady is a few years older than Yao Bomei, and she has been in the mansion for a longer time than Yao Bomei, so her heart is more mature than Yao Bomei, and her vision of the problem will be smarter: "Duanmu Qiuju does have a motive to murder us, for her status, for the sake of the child in her belly, it is very likely that she will attack us...... However, we must have evidence, and we cannot talk nonsense without evidence...... Duanmu Qiuju is not an ordinary person, if she is angered, we don't want to have a good life. Speaking of this, the second lady paused: "When I was pregnant, Duanmu Qiuju would come to see me every once in a while, and I was very enthusiastic, but when I miscarried, Duanmu Qiuju came less often, and even if she came, she was not so enthusiastic about me...... The contrast between the front and back is so great that I have to be suspicious. ”

"Second sister, what do you think I should do next?" asked Yao Bomei.

"This ......" The second lady pondered for a moment: "With your current strength, you can't fight Duanmu Qiuju, and I don't approve of you fighting Duanmu Qiuju, your most important task now is to give birth to the child safely, as long as the child is born, your position in the mansion will be stable, Duanmu Qiuju will have to weigh it carefully when he wants to move you again...... When the time is right, you can go to the lord and seek his refuge. ”

"I've looked for it. Yao Bomei said: "I told my master all my suspicions." ”

"What? You told the master? Oh, why are you so impulsive?" The second lady was anxious: "You don't have any evidence in your hand, and it is impossible to believe you with the temper of the master." ”

Yao Bomei nodded: "You're right, the master really doesn't believe me, no matter what I say, he will defend Duanmu Qiuju vigorously, which makes me very angry." ”

"You don't understand. The second lady said earnestly: "Duanmu Qiuju is different from us, she is the lord's wife, and she has been with the lord for the longest time, the lord has special feelings for her, and Duanmu Qiuju usually behaves dignified and beautiful, down-to-earth and generous, and gives a good impression to the lord, you go to sue Duanmu Qiuju in front of the lord without conclusive evidence, how can the lord give you a good look?"

"I was so angry that I didn't think about it so much......"

"If the master knows, he will definitely question Duanmu Qiuju, and when Duanmu Qiuju knows, how do you think she will deal with you?"

"This ......"

"In the past, there was a layer of window paper, Duanmu Qiuju would not be too difficult for you, but now that the window paper has been pierced, it is much more convenient for Duanmu Qiuju to do it. ”

"Don't scare me...... Why don't I just go back to my parents' house and stay there until I have a baby. ”

"If Duanmu Qiuju is determined to deal with you, even if you hide to the ends of the earth, she will still be able to find you. ”

"That'...... So what should I do?"

"Listen to me, don't go anywhere, just stay in the house, try to avoid Duanmu Qiuju on weekdays, you really can't hide, you have to be careful, don't give her a chance to start, as long as you hold on until the child is born, you will win." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you, second sister, I'm very panicked and scared now, you have to help me. ”

"Don't worry, I'll definitely help you. ”

After sitting for a while, Yao Bomei said goodbye and went back.

The second lady stood at the gate of the courtyard, looking at the direction of Yao Bomei's departure, her eyes flickered, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

She thinks about her children again...... If there is no miscarriage, the baby will be born soon......

My baby...... That's it, Duanmu Qiuju, did you really do it? If it's you...... Your heart is too vicious, isn't it......

"Someone. The second lady shouted.

"Ma'am. A maid came up quickly and asked what was the matter.

"From today onwards, you have kept an eye on the Sixth Lady for me and reported her every move to me, can you do it?"

"Yes. ”

"Then go ahead and be careful not to let the Sixth Lady find out. ”

"Yes. The maid walked out quickly, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Immediately afterwards, the second lady arranged for someone to monitor Duanmu Qiuju, she wanted to investigate the matter clearly, if it was really Duanmu Qiuju who murdered her, then she would definitely not give up.
