♂?，，

  In Ninghe Hall, Mrs. Han lay listlessly on the kang, her mind in a state of utter turmoil as she sighed repeatedly: "This time we probably can't avoid it..."

  Mrs. Jiang was also restless, and just now Cuizhi's sister Cui Ping came to report that Master had invited Dr. Hua to diagnose Liu Niang's illness. The Hua family is a medical family with three generations of doctors, renowned throughout the land. Dr. Hua's medical skills are exquisite, and Madame's little tricks will probably not deceive him.

  "Ma'am, please don't worry, the dose of medicine we gave is very small. The doctor said that it will take a few more times to administer before there are any mild symptoms, and even then, Dr. Hua may not be able to diagnose it." Mrs. Jiang comforted herself by saying.

  Han's three points of resentment and seven points of indignation said: "I didn't expect the old master to invite Dr. Hua for a lowly maid."

  "In any case, let's prepare for the worst, if all else fails..." A cold glint flashed in Jiang Mama's eyes.

  Mr. Han was worried: "This matter can't be solved by just spanking, she may not admit her guilt, to prevent it, it's best not to let her speak."

  "Old slave knows."

  "Madam, Cui Ping has arrived..." Chun Xing reported from outside.

  Han's eyes snapped open and he sat up straight, smoothing his hair and adjusting his collar. In a deep voice, he said, "Let her in."

  Cui Ping walked in with her head down and replied, "Dr. Hua has already left, and Master has also sent the second young madam to see Liu Niang for illness. I asked Ah Jin, and Ah Jin said that she vaguely heard Dr. Hua mention something about poisoning..." Cui Ping glossed over the fact that she had almost been caught by the second young madam when she went to find Ah Jin, which was a big mistake, and if Madame found out, she would definitely not forgive her.

  Han's face suddenly turned pale, and he felt his temples throbbing with a faint humming sound: "Go investigate again."

  "Yes!" Cui Ping responded softly and quickly retreated again.

  In the courtyard, Cui Zhī took advantage of the fact that there was no one around and pulled Cui Ping behind a pillar. Lowering her voice, she asked: "What errand did the mistress send you on?"

  Cui Ping saw her sister's flustered face and was also very frightened: "Madam ordered me to go to Liu Niang's place to gather information, but just now, it seems that I was caught by the second young madam."

  Cui Zhī's face stiffened: "Are you certain?"

  Cui Ping hastily said: "The second young mistress has seen me, but I dodged quickly, perhaps she didn't see clearly who it was."

  Cui Zhī said with a worried heart: "I have been serving by the lady's side for many years, and I am very clear about her temperament. When she needs to use me, she can grant me many benefits, but once she no longer needs me, she is more ruthless than anyone else. I am always on tenterhooks, afraid that the lady will ask me to do something bad. Now I have also been drawn into this."

  Cui Ping's heart had a faint sense of unease as she said: "I'm just helping to gather information, it shouldn't be anything serious, right?"

  "What if we get caught? If our true identities are exposed, Master will be the first to take out his knife. So, let's be careful." Cui Zhi solemnly warned her.

  Cui Ping nodded repeatedly: "I know, I'll be careful."

  Cuizhi watched as her sister disappeared into the night, sighing with a sense of foreboding. Being reused by Madame was not a good thing.

  Inside the house, Mr. Han bit his lower lip tightly and remained silent. Mrs. Jiang stood beside him with a nervous expression, not daring to disturb him. The room was in an eerie silence.

  After a long while, Mr. Han said: "Aunt Jiang, go and make arrangements."

  "Old slave understands, will take action tonight."

  Han raised his eyes and said vaguely: "It's really unfortunate, everything is unfavorable!"

  "Madam, shall we go to Xiangshan Temple to burn incense in the first month?" Mrs. Jiang said softly.

  Mr. Han sighed: "It's time to go and worship the Buddha, hoping that the Buddha will bless us with a smoother new year."

  After about two more quarters of an hour, Cui Ping came to report that the second young lady had been diagnosed with a cold womb, and Master ordered Ah Jin to go get medicine.

  Han and Jiang's mother looked at each other in dismay, somewhat disbelieving: "Are you sure?"

  Cui Ping said: "I heard it from Ah Jin, he told me to go back to the mistress, and when he goes to fetch medicine, he will confirm whether the prescription is for treating palace cold syndrome or not."

  Mr. Han nodded slightly: "Well done, Mother Jiang, give her that red coral bracelet of mine."

  Mrs. Jiang also let out a long sigh, and with a smile, went to the mistress's dressing room to fetch a pair of bracelets to reward Cui Ping: "Do well for the mistress, and you won't lack good fortune."

  Cui Ping received the reward and happily thanked him before retreating.

  Lin Lan also boasted that her medical skills were not ordinary, and with this skill, she dared to open a pharmacy. Humph! I think she's just lucky to have cured the wife of Duke Jingbo, that's all.

  Mother Jiang smiled and said: "Fortunately, Master trusts her. Now we just have to wait for news from Ah Jin's side."

  Han lazily leaned on the big pillow: "The old master wants to treat Liu Niang's palace cold, and for a while, she won't let her get pregnant. We don't need to be so anxious, just wait and see!"

  "Madam is absolutely right, even if she gets pregnant, it's hard to say whether she can give birth smoothly, and even if she gives birth, it's a question whether she can raise the child." said Jiang Mama.

  The two of them exchanged a smile, and the anxiety that had been pent up all evening was finally released. Who would have thought that Lin Lan, an incompetent doctor, would actually be of great help.

  She spent the year in an orderly manner, and Lin Lan didn't care about Liu Niang's affairs anymore. She believed that Li Zha would have his own way of handling things, and she just needed to add some oil and firewood at the right time when they were fighting, there was no need to take charge.

  After a quarrel, Yinliu and Baihu met again with cold eyes, ignoring each other. Linlan saw it and only instructed Yurong to be careful not to let them quarrel again.

  Li Mingyun got a three-day holiday for the New Year. On the first day of the year, he worshiped heaven and ancestors, and on the second day, he took Lin Lan to Ye's house to pay respects to Ye's elder uncle.

  Ye Xiner was still under house arrest, not allowed to take a step out of the embroidery building. Rong Shi was released ahead of schedule because she needed to help her mother-in-law with some trivial matters. When Rong Shi saw Lin Lan, she looked embarrassed. Lin Lan just smiled warmly and didn't say anything.

  The great uncle specially let Xu Fu'an come to ask for peace from Ming Yun and Lin Lan. Ming Yun asked a few casual questions, and Xu Fu'an answered clearly and intelligently, showing that he was clever and capable. Lin Lan looked at Li Ming Yun, and the two exchanged a knowing smile, finally able to settle the matter of Bai Hui.

  After lunch at Ye's house, Ming Yun took Lin Lan to the residence of Duke Jing Bo. This was what Qiao Yun Xi had intended. The second day of the first month was originally supposed to be the day for her to return to her natal home, but since her parents' home was far away in Jiangnan and it wasn't easy to make a trip back, she invited several close friends whose circumstances were similar to hers to gather at her house instead.

  In the carriage, Lin Lan held a box of treasures and sighed: "Every time I go to my uncle's house, I always bring so many things. I really feel very embarrassed."

  Li Mingyun looked at her with a disingenuous expression and chuckled, "Who was it that was still thinking about what gift Big Uncle would give last night?"

  Lin Lan shot him a glance, indignantly saying: "That's still because... I don't know when to stop, if I don't shift my attention away, who knows how long this will drag on." As she spoke, Lin Lan rubbed her sore waist and couldn't help but glare at him again.

  Li Mingyun said with a hint of grievance: "I rarely get a few days off and don't have to wake up early."

  "But I have to get up early..." Lin Lan was even more wronged, on the 30th of December he said he wanted to stay up all night, and on New Year's Day he said that the first day of the new year should start well... In short, he found various excuses to torment her. He was young and strong, full of energy, she was no match for him, only being tormented until she begged for mercy. Lin Lan thought angrily, when she reached his age, she would see if he could take it or not.

  Li Mingyun gazed at the dark circles under her eyes and knew she had been working hard these past few days. However, she was too sweet and made it difficult for him to control himself. He wrapped his arms around her and whispered in her ear, "Tonight I'll give you a massage..."

  "No!" Lin Lan immediately refused. Last time he also said to help her with massage, but in the end she was pressed under his body, tortured to death.

  Li Ming couldn't help but laugh at her, and teased: "Really don't want? Don't come crying to me later!" His hands deftly slipped into her collar, grasping the soft and round object, gently squeezing and rubbing it.

  Her sensitive body couldn't withstand such rubbing and teasing, as if the strength of her body had been completely burned away by the flames ignited deep within her lower abdomen. Lin Lan weakly pushed him away, panting softly: "This is on a horse carriage...... aren't you afraid that people outside will hear?"

  "Just bear with it and no one will hear." He muttered vaguely, biting her earlobe.

  "Don't do this, how can I see people later?" Lin Lan was shy and her soft body was already filled with longing, but reason told her that it wasn't the right time, she still had to go to the Duke of Jing's mansion, if someone found out something, she would be finished.

  "Shh... don't talk, I'll be gentle." He made her sit back on his lap, his low voice full of charm, one hand had already lifted up her skirt and slipped inside, the flower was already wet, his long fingers slid in without any obstruction, all the way to the heart of the flower.

  Lin Lan wanted to push him away but couldn't, she wanted to call out but couldn't, all she could do was bite her lower lip and let him set fire to her body.

  "Lan'er, want it?" His scorching hot body pressed against the wet entrance, rubbing against it.

  In such a posture, she had nowhere to rely on and couldn't see his expression. So bewildered and helpless, she only tightly grasped his arm, panting, unable to speak. He always loved tormenting her like this, utterly wicked...

  A clear feeling of scorching heat gradually deepened, gentle yet resolute. However, he stopped halfway and whispered in her ear, "Say, do you want to or not?"

  Lin Lan shook her head and felt like crying.

  He suddenly grasped her waist and forcefully pressed down, his hard, iron-like heat instantly pressing heavily against the sensitive flower core.

  Lin Lan couldn't help but tremble, biting her lip tightly to prevent herself from moaning. This posture was too deep, and she could hardly bear it.

  As the wheels rolled, he rubbed and pinched her plumpness with one hand, occasionally pulling on the cherry red top, while the other hand grasped her slender waist, forcing her to move up and down.

  "Lan, are you comfortable?" he panted and asked, exerting force to press her waist, making the two most closely combined together, the scorching tip grinding against the flower heart, feeling her trembling again and again.

  Lin Lan's face flushed red, and her eyes also had a layer of mist on them, her vision becoming increasingly blurred. Meanwhile, a wave of numbness surged from her lower abdomen, pleasure rolling in like waves.

  Feeling her tight, narrow, soft flower hole trembling, he knew she had reached the critical moment. He strongly pushed upwards, one heavy thrust after another, and together they climbed to the peak.

  Inside the carriage, only two people's heavy breathing remained. Lin Lan leaned softly into his arms, and after a long while, she finally regained consciousness. She remembered that he was holding her tightly and hoarsely said: "Don't move, don't move."

  Because of Lin Lan's sake, he also read some medical books. It is said that the period between two menstrual cycles is the easiest time to get pregnant. He hopes there will be good news soon in the new year.
