Chapter 149
"Sell...sell the body contract?"
Hearing Lu Rou's words, Cui'er's eyes lit up and her body trembled slightly with excitement.
"Aunt Lu, are you telling the truth?"
"As long as I can get the job done, will you return the body contract to me?"
Faced with Cui'er's repeated inquiries, Lu Rou was a little impatient, but this maid knew too much about her, so she had to suppress her temper and replied, "Of course, as long as you can get the job done, I will not only return your body contract, but also set you free."
Cui'er hurriedly responded when she heard this, "Aunt Lu, please go ahead."
When Old Lady Shen learned that Chun'er was in trouble, she hurried over. When she arrived at the yard, the doctor had already walked out.
"Doctor, how is the person?"
Old Lady Shen glanced in the direction of the house, and saw that the people around her were in a sad state again, and she felt vaguely uneasy.
The doctor sighed and said helplessly, "Reporting to the old lady, the child in Aunt Chun's belly is gone."
"What..." Old Lady Shen was shocked, "How could the child be gone?"
"Doctor, what's the problem?"
"Judging from Aunt Chun's condition, there must be something wrong with her diet."
"Diet..."
Old Lady Shen was surprised and heard the doctor say, "Aunt Chun needs to take good care of her body. Don't let your emotions fluctuate too much. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get pregnant in the future." Chun'er,
who was sad, also heard the doctor's words, and the whole person felt like being struck by lightning.
She subconsciously touched her abdomen. She was looking forward to the birth of the child a few days ago, but the imperial physician told her that it was difficult to get pregnant. How could she be willing to accept this? It was not
until the doctor left that Old Lady Shen walked up to Chun'er. Seeing her sad look, she felt a little bit sorry.
"Chun'er, this matter... You should take good care of yourself first, and you will definitely have children in the future." After all, she was the person who served her for many years, and Old Lady Shen still had some feelings for Chun'er.
"Madam, please make the decision for me."
Chun'er's eyes were filled with painful tears. "Since I was diagnosed with pregnancy, I have been extremely careful in all aspects, especially in diet."
Madam Shen frowned, as if she understood what Chun'er meant. "I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly!"
At this time, Shen Yun'an came in from outside, and Lu Rou came with her.
As soon as Lu Rou saw Chun'er, she asked about her well-being, "Sister Chun'er, how can you be so careless."
Chun'er clenched her fists and looked at Lu Rou angrily. If there was a problem with her diet, then the first person she suspected would be Lu Rou.
In this mansion, only she targeted herself everywhere.
Seeing Lu Rou approaching, Chun'er suddenly grabbed Lu Rou's hand and asked angrily, "Lu Rou, is this matter related to you!"
After Chun'er's questioning, everyone present looked at Lu Rou, including Madam Shen and Shen Yun'an.
Shen Yun'an just frowned slightly, and did not stop at this time, but was in a silent attitude.
Old Madam Shen showed an unhappy look. If it were before, she would definitely think that Lu Rou was a harmless woman, but judging from what happened during this period.
It is not impossible to say that Lu Rou used means to harm Chun'er's belly.
After all, this Lu Rou had also proposed to switch children.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Shen immediately questioned Lu Rou, "Lu Rou, is this really related to you?"
Lu Rou did not expect Chun'er to directly question her in front of Old Madam Shen and Shen Yun'an. She tried to shake off Chun'er's grip on her wrist, but unexpectedly, the other party was holding it tightly, so that she could not escape at all.
She subconsciously looked at Shen Yun'an, but saw that he did not mean to speak. Lu Rou's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Brother Yun'an also doubted her? When
Lu Rou thought of this possibility, her uneasiness became stronger.
In this mansion, even if Old Madam Shen was dissatisfied with her because of other things, as long as Brother Yun'an cared about her.
Even if Old Madam Shen was Shen Yun'an's mother, she had to take it into consideration.
Lu Rou's eyes were red, revealing a weak look, "Sister Chun'er, I know you are sad because you suddenly lost your child, but you can't put the blame on me."
"I have been busy taking care of the child these days, not to mention that I am also a mother, how could I do such a thing."
Lu Rou said, tears flowed down, and looked at Shen Yun'an pitifully, "Brother Yun'an, don't you believe me either?"
Shen Yun'an felt a little bit reluctant to see Lu Rou like this.
He didn't have any feelings for Chun'er. If it weren't for her pregnancy and her mother, I am afraid that he would have covered up the accident that day.
"Chun'er, let Rou'er go first. I will definitely investigate the matter of your sudden miscarriage thoroughly."
Shen Yun'an said to Chun'er.
"Someone, bring the kitchen and the maids who are responsible for Chun'er's diet here. I want to interrogate them in person!"
Chun'er saw Shen Yun'an speak, and although she looked at Lu Rou with reluctance, she could only let go of her, but her eyes were still fixed on Lu Rou.
Lu Rou took a few steps back and deliberately fell into Shen Yun'an's arms, revealing her wrist that was red from being pulled, "Brother Yun'an..."
Soon the people in the kitchen were brought in, but there was no other progress after the interrogation.
At this time, a voice of injustice came from outside.
"My Lord, Madam, I am really wronged."
Madam Shen took the lead and stepped forward. Seeing the guards escorting a maid, she asked unhappily, "What happened?"
"Madam, when we were patrolling, we found that this maid was sneaky and even intended to escape over the wall."
"Isn't this Liu'er who works in the kitchen?"
"Kitchen?"
Hearing this, Madam Shen felt even more that something was wrong. Could this matter be related to this Liu'er?
Thinking of what the guard said about Liu'er's intention to escape, Madam Shen's eyes were already filled with anger.
"Why don't you tell me in detail, did Aunt Chun's miscarriage have anything to do with you?"
The maid called Liu'er was terrified.
Lu Rou suggested at this time, "Madam, I think this maid's behavior is extremely strange. If she doesn't suffer some hardship, she won't speak."
"You're right, give her twenty big boards first!" Madam Shen rarely agreed with Lu Rou's point of view.
As soon as this order came out, the other servants present showed a look of fear. You know, that's twenty big boards. For people like them, even ten big boards are unbearable.
Twenty big boards might kill them directly. Liu'er's legs were shaking all the time. Suddenly she knelt down and pleaded with Madam Shen, "Madam, I'll tell you."
"It's... Madam asked me to do this."
"What did you say!"
