Chapter 212 Testing Medicine
Chapter 212 Testing Medicine
"Cousin!" Zhou Ziyue shouted hurriedly, and the maid standing next to Jiang Qin immediately grabbed her.
"You don't have to worry about me." Jiang Qin knelt on the ground, staring at Tang Yue'er with bloodshot eyes, "Doesn't the prince's wife want me dead? You have been targeting me since I arrived, and you have given me the dirtiest and most tiring work. Now you are accusing me of seducing the prince. I, Jiang Qin, am indeed living under someone else's roof, but I also have my dignity. In that case, then what's the point of me living? The prince's wife will be satisfied if I die!" After saying that, Jiang Qin was about to bang her head on the table again.
Mrs. Du was overwhelmed by the mess.
She wondered what kind of people lived in this mansion.
Seeing Jiang Qin crying like she was dying and the maids busy pulling her back, Zhou Ziyue was anxious and didn't know what to do.
Mrs. Du stroked her head and said, “That’s enough!”
But the scene was so chaotic that it seemed as if no one heard her words.
Mrs. Du was angry: "Enough!" She shouted, and the scene immediately became quiet.
Mrs. Du looked at Tang Yue'er and said, "Tell me, what on earth did she do wrong? What did you see?"
Tang Yue'er didn't want to say it, she felt sick to say it. She paused and said, "Someone saw that when the prince and Jiang Qin went out today, Jiang Qin was vomiting, and the prince was looking after her with heartache."
"I also asked the servants in the mansion, and many people saw that she did frequently retch in the past few days." At this point, Tang Yue'er looked up and took a deep look at Zhou Ziyue, then lowered her head and said, "I suspect this bitch is pregnant!"
Pregnant? !
Mrs. Du was also shocked. Tang Yue'er was already annoying enough for her, and now there was Jiang Qin. Did Zhou Ziyue like to pick up garbage at home?
If she gets pregnant, she will inevitably become a concubine.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Du frowned, and she suddenly looked up and glared at Zhou Ziyue.
Zhou Ziyue was also shocked by Tang Yue'er's words. Who told her this? How come he didn't know that Jiang Qin was pregnant?
"Yuer, who told you this? What kind of pregnancy is she having? And whose baby is she pregnant with?" Zhou Ziyue asked curiously.
When Tang Yue'er heard this, she became even angrier. She suddenly turned around and glared at Zhou Ziyue. Why was he still pretending at this point?
Jiang Qin is a cousin, so it’s impossible for her to be pregnant with a servant’s child, right?
"Whose are you talking about?" Tang Yue'er retorted.
Zhou Ziyue was stunned by the question. He was speechless: "Do you think that child is mine?"
Tang Yue'er turned her head and said nothing, which was considered as her agreement.
Zhou Ziyue couldn't explain it to her clearly, so he looked up at Mrs. Du and said, "Mom, I didn't." His words were too simple.
Even Mrs. Du kept looking at him, obviously not believing him.
"No." Zhou Ziyue and Jiang Qin looked at each other and could only say, "It's not like that. Jiang Qin is not pregnant, and there is nothing going on between us."
"What happened?" Mrs. Du asked, "What did Yue'er see, and why has Jiang Qin been retching these past two days?"
Having said this, Jiang Qin only felt more aggrieved and just lowered her head without saying anything.
Zhou Ziyue could only say, "Mom, I don't know what happened these past two days. I have a splitting headache every night. I went to the pharmacy to get some medicine. You know I'm often allergic to medicine, and Jiang Qin has been the same as me since she was a child. In order to ensure that I wouldn't get into trouble after taking the medicine, she helped me test the medicine on herself. It's been three days now."
"She is weak, and it is inevitable that she will feel uncomfortable after drinking the Chinese medicine, and she always wants to vomit." Zhou Ziyue looked at Tang Yue'er, "What Yue'er saw may be that she felt uncomfortable in the carriage today, and got off to vomit the medicine."
It turned out to be the case.
Although Mrs. Du felt that Jiang Qin had other intentions in testing the medicine, the matter was finally made clear.
Test medicine?
Tang Yue'er sat there in shock, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"Yuer." Zhou Ziyue came over and explained to her, "If you don't believe it, you can ask a doctor to take a look at her, and the truth will be clear."
When Jiang Qin saw that the matter was explained clearly, she felt more and more wronged and sat on the ground sobbing.
Tang Yue'er's eyes darkened and she said, "Why didn't I know that she was testing medicine on you?" Logically speaking, shouldn't Zhou Ziyue, her husband, tell her about such things?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ziyue couldn't help but laugh at himself. He looked at Tang Yue'er and said, "Yu'er, I've had a headache for a few days. Do you know?"
After hearing this, Tang Yue'er's heart sank and she looked at Zhou Ziyue in surprise.
Is he complaining that she doesn't care about him?
But has he ever cared about her?
How could he know that she had been so cautious and in so much pain in the palace these days?
What right did he have to blame her?
The two of them just stared at each other like that. Although the distance was very close, Tang Yue'er had a feeling that he was very far away from her.
It's never been this far.
"Wow, wow, wow..." Jiang Qin was still sitting on the ground crying.
Mrs. Du had a headache after hearing this. Wasn't it Jiang Qin who wanted to test the medicine on Zhou Ziyue? Now that she was misunderstood, wasn't it her own fault?
What's there to cry about?
Now that everything was clear, Mrs. Du was too lazy to stay here. She frowned and said, "That's enough."
She rolled her eyes at the three people below and said, "It's nothing, let's go." Then she got up and left.

It was already late, Zhou Ziyue knocked on Jiang Qin's door, walked in, looked around and asked, "Have you seen the new clothes I brought back from the shop today?"
Jiang Qin, who had been lowering her head, managed to raise her head and put on a smile: "It's here. Yours was accidentally put together with my aunt's clothes. I'll go get it for you right away."
Although she was smiling, her voice was choked with sobs.
While wiping her face with her sleeves, she walked to the closet and untied a piece of cloth, revealing several new clothes inside. She said behind his back, "Look at me. I forgot to send the clothes to my aunt after I brought them back today. Damn it."
"I'll send the clothes to her tomorrow morning." As she said that, she took out Zhou Ziyue's dress, put it in her hand, turned around and handed it to him.
The lights in the room were not on, but Jiang Qin's red and swollen eyes could still be seen.
Zhou Ziyue took the clothes and turned to leave, but he couldn't bear it, so he turned around and said, "Cousin, what happened tonight is over, don't take it to heart anymore."
"Yuer is a straightforward person and sometimes has a bad temper, but she doesn't mean much harm. Don't blame her." Zhou Ziyue said.
Hearing this, Jiang Qin felt even worse. She reached out her hand to wipe away the tears streaming down her face and said with a forced smile, "I know, she is the wife of the prince, and I am just a widow living under someone else's roof. Whatever she does to me is right."
Zhou Ziyue froze. That wasn't what he meant.
But now that things have come to this, he has nothing more to say, so he said, "Thank you for your hard work in testing the medicine for me these past few days."
"Go to bed early." After he said that, he turned around and was about to leave, holding his clothes.
Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing from behind, and then a pair of hands suddenly came up from behind and hugged his waist.
