Chapter 472 The Tragic Death of a Concubine 5
Ning Yan took action at this time. She secretly put some medicine in the second master's soup.

Does the original owner’s death have nothing to do with him?

He is the father of the child. If he had cared a little more about the woman who was bearing his child, the original owner would not have died!

……

In the following half month, I don’t know what the eldest lady said, but the second master almost treated everyone equally, one night here and one night there, and no one got any loss.

Then he lived in the front yard.

The baby was only being nursed for seven or eight days, and no matter how many times the two ladies invited him, the Second Master did not come to the backyard, and it was also heard that he had hired a doctor.

The two ladies were extremely anxious and sent out their capable men to investigate the situation.

But all the servants in the study in the front yard were silenced. Anyone who dared to utter a word would lose his life. So who would dare to speak?
The second wife, who had not found out anything, called Ning Yan over.

Ever since the incident of finding a concubine, the second wife felt that this usually taciturn girl was particularly smart. The key was to make her feel at ease, so she wanted to call her over to ask her some questions.

"Emerald come here."

Before Ning Yan could salute, the Second Madam waved at her.

"Look, this is something I specially saved for you. Put it on and see if you like it."

The second lady opened a small box, inside of which was a jade bracelet. It wasn’t top quality, but it could still be easily pawned for ten or eight taels.

Ning Yan obediently picked up the bracelet and put it on her hand. The bright green and jade white colors looked very beautiful. The bracelet, which originally cost dozens of taels, now looked very valuable.

"Thank you for the reward, Master."

"Why are you being so polite to me? Just wear what I gave you.

By the way, you know what happened in the front yard, right? "

Ning Yan paused as she lowered her sleeves. "Are you talking about the Second Master looking for a doctor? Of course I know that.

Master, have you not found out what is going on? Have you tried to get help from the doctor?"

"I tried, but the doctor refused to tell me."

"Then don't ask, Master. It's obvious that the Second Master doesn't want anyone to know. It would be troublesome if you knew."

It’s not that the Second Madam didn’t understand this logic, but the Second Master suddenly changed his temper and even ignored her request. Wasn’t she overthinking it?
"Master, don't think too much. Maybe you are already pregnant with a little master. Even if the Second Master lives in the front yard in the future, what is there to be afraid of if you have a child?"

The Second Lady's eyes lit up: Yes, it's not just that the Second Master doesn't come to her place, he also doesn't go to that bitch's place anymore, what is there for her to be afraid of?

"But who can guarantee that I'm pregnant?"

Ning Yan really said whatever sounded nice: "When I came in today, I felt that Madam was different from before, maybe she is pregnant.

Normally, it has been almost a month now, and a skilled doctor should be able to take the patient's pulse..."

The second wife's eyes lit up instantly: "Mammy, quickly send someone to invite Doctor Ba from Baicaotang."

Doctor Ba is the old doctor who came to the same conclusion as the old Taoist. The second wife thinks he is the most powerful person after the old Taoist. If she is pregnant, he will definitely be able to diagnose it.

Aunt Wu immediately sent someone to invite her.

About half an hour later, Dr. Ba came with a medicine box.

It takes about a stick of incense to take a pulse.

The second wife was anxious.

Not only the Second Madam, Ning Yan was also anxious. Was it necessary to take so long just to find out about a pregnancy?

"Has Madam ever taken any miraculous medicine before?"

The Second Madam raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean, Doctor Ba?" "I checked your pulse before and it showed that you were not pregnant. I didn't expect that after only one month, your uterine coldness has completely healed and you are now pregnant.

It’s just that the time is still short and the pulse is not obvious, so I took a little longer to diagnose it.”

Aunt Wu asked anxiously, "Is Madam really pregnant?"

Doctor Ba nodded. He wanted to ask what medicine the Second Madam had taken before, but the Second Madam was in no mood to talk to him about this. She was only busy being happy about her pregnancy.

"Reward, reward the doctor with ten taels of silver! This lady is happy today, and everyone in the main courtyard will be rewarded!"

Aunt Wu hurriedly stopped her and said, "Madam, you are still young now, it is better to wait three months before talking about it."

"Okay, then I'll only reward the doctor and the few of you who serve him personally."

Aunt Wu gave Doctor Ba a reward and added one more thing: "Doctor Ba, please keep today's incident a secret. I will invite you to come and check Ping'an's pulse in three months. Then you won't have to worry so much."

Doctor Ba agreed and was then sent out by his servants.

Doctor Ba: ...Forget it. Fortunately, I can still check his pulse later. I’ll ask him then.

After the doctor left, the second wife wanted to reward Ning Yan. Ning Yan quickly bowed and said, "Master, I don't want any reward. I just want to redeem myself. I have saved some money in the past few years. I beg you to be gracious to me."

Most of the smile on the Second Madam's face disappeared. To be honest, if Feicui was still as taciturn as before, she would have left.

But now she is really useful and a smart person, she really wants to stay by her side to help her with advice.

But I had promised her, and for a moment I didn't know whether to let her go or keep her.

Ning Yan knew that masters were always thoughtful, and she had also anticipated that she might go back on her word, so she was not surprised at all.

"Master, I am not fit to stay here any longer, especially since you are pregnant. The Second Master will definitely come a lot. What if..."

The Second Madam understood Ning Yan's unresolved intentions. If they bumped into each other twice, there would be no man who did not love beautiful women, so it would be better to let the woman go now.

Ning Yan added: "Besides, I am just leaving Ji Mansion, I am not disappearing. From now on, the master can tell me anything."

That day, the second wife returned Ning Yan's bond.

He also gave Ning Yan twenty taels of silver as a living allowance.

The original owner didn't have many things to begin with, so she packed them up in no time. Before leaving, she went to the kitchen. The original owner had a good relationship with Xiaoqing in the kitchen. She was responsible for stewing soup for the masters in the mansion. When she saw her coming, she insisted on giving her a bowl of the soup that was stewing on the stove. Ning Yan thought, isn't this a coincidence?

After finishing the soup, Ning Yan said goodbye to Xiao Qing, "I'm leaving now, just let me know."

"You, the Second Madam returned your indenture?"

"Well, I'm not a child anymore. If I stay in the mansion, the Second Madam will have to worry about finding someone for me. It's better to leave and save trouble."

Xiaoqing was so envious that she also wanted to redeem herself, but she had only saved two taels of silver so far, and it was too difficult to redeem herself.

Ning Yan knew that the girl also wanted to leave, so she quietly placed the twenty taels of silver given by the second lady under her stool.

"Where are you going to stay after you get out? Are you going home?"

Ning Yan shook her head. The original owner was sold together with her own parents. Going back would just be sold one more time. She didn't want to endure that.

"No, I plan to find an embroidery workshop to work as an embroiderer first."

"That's right. With your ability, you can live well as an embroiderer."

"There is something I left for you on the stool. Redeem yourself and leave as soon as possible."

Xiao Qing was confused and waited for Ning Yan to leave. Then she picked up the stool and took a look. She found two ingots of silver in the bag!

Xiaoqing's eyes suddenly became wet.
