Chapter 1021 A Showdown Between Two Women

Lu Pingting was completely dumbfounded, she thought that Yao Jingning knew everything, so it seemed that he was here to deceive her.

She subconsciously wanted to hide it and escape. She was not blind, she could see Yao Jingning's bulging belly, and knew why everyone kept Yao Jingning's secrets.

Yao Jingning took a step forward and stopped her: "If you still remember, then tell me the truth."

Seeing that there was no way to escape, Lu Pingting simply stood up straight: "Of course I remember my love. What I owe him in this life will never be repaid. Even you, I am very grateful. If it is not for your generosity , my two younger brothers will not have such a smooth life."

It is precisely because of the memory of love that she can't say it, she can't repay her kindness, if Yao Jingning has something wrong because of this, she will never forgive herself for the rest of her life, and she will not be ashamed to see Qiu Mao.

Yao Jingning said, "So, what happened to him?"

Lu Pingting said: "Isn't Lord Qiu seriously ill due to acclimatization? I heard that His Majesty sent an imperial physician. I thought, he was originally in poor health, but this time he suffered a lot."

"You are crying." Yao Jingning pointed out calmly, "You are crying just because you are sick and have an imperial physician?"

Lu Pingting was silent for a moment, then smiled enchantingly: "Yes, because my heart hurts."

Yao Jingning was taken aback by the sudden attack, and took a step back, not knowing what to do.

Lu Pingting said: "Madam must also know that I always wanted to marry him in the early years, even if I betrayed my family. It's a pity that I have no fate with him. In today's situation, it is even more impossible to be with him. But Ah, you have to be careful, don't give me a chance. Otherwise, I will be shameless and desperate."

Yao Jingning was even more surprised, and stayed for a moment before saying: "I know what happened in the past, if he is willing to give you a chance, you can do it. I want face and life, so I won't fight with you."

"You are so generous, I can't do it. Lord Qiu treats you so well, what else is there for you to be dissatisfied with?" Lu Pingting chuckled, turned and left, not far away, tears pouring down her cheeks.

Aunt Qing came over, saw this scene, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello: "The Empress is looking for Madam to talk to."

Yao Jingning stood there in a daze, and after a while, she lowered her head and touched her swollen belly, and said calmly, "I see."

She was almost certain that something happened to Qiu Mao.

She can bear it herself, and has made all the plans, but since the empress doesn't know, then she just doesn't mention it.

Back at the Jiaotai Hall, Zhong Weiwei pointed to many fine cotton cloths and asked her to choose: "The newly delivered tribute, fine cotton cloths, we choose to make small clothes for the children."

Zhong Weiwei was in high spirits, picked out fabrics for the children, and explained what kind of flowers to embroider and what styles to make, without knowing anything about Qiu Miao at all.

Yao Jingning cooperated with her calmly, picked out the clothes, and then pretended that she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, and at the same time handed over the two children to the palace servants to take care of.

Alone in the room, she wanted to cry, but she felt that she wanted to cry without tears, and felt that all the strength in her body had been taken away.

She thought a lot, if Qiu Mao really couldn't come back, what would she do?
Remarriage is mostly impossible, and she feels that she will never fall in love with other people again.

I just want to give birth to this child in my womb, and carefully raise the three children so that they each have a bright future.

"In this way, I will be worthy of you."

Yao Jingning murmured softly, remembering the scene when Qiu Mao left in the early morning light that morning, and the time he walked back to the street corner and looked back at her, her heart ached.

The pain was so great that she couldn't breathe, she knelt on the ground while holding the table, and curled up into a ball.

What are you not satisfied with?

Lu Pingting's words were still in her ears, she closed her eyes and shed tears, it was because she cared too much and liked it too much, so she was dissatisfied.

The child in her belly moved suddenly, this was the first time for him to move, like a string of bubbles, it popped up in her belly with a "bubble", and then disappeared without a trace.

Yao Jingning wiped away her tears and carefully protected her lower abdomen. She is not alone, she has three children.

In any case, she wanted to give birth to the child safely.

She stopped obsessing over Qiu Mao's whereabouts and news, and comforted herself by saying that no news is good news.

Qiu Mao has been away for so long, there must be a reason for not coming back on time.

If it drags on for too long, no matter how much His Majesty can hide it, the empress will intervene and have doubts.

She tried to walk, she tried to eat, she tried to play with the children, and she tried to smile so that no one could see her sadness and concern.

But she still couldn't sleep all night, her hair fell out badly, and her figure was extremely emaciated.

Zhong Weiwei quickly noticed this change, and asked her, but couldn't find anything, she only said that the child was tossing too much.

Let the imperial doctor see, the imperial doctor said that she was too worried, and prescribed some medicine to let her relax.

Zhong Weiwei often enlightened her, and she smiled and said yes, but she still lost weight inevitably.

One day, Yao Jingning was walking in the garden and met Lu Pingting, who was there specially to wait for her.

Lu Pingting has carefully dressed up, although she still wears the pale green clothes, but with rouge powder and eyebrows drawn, she looks extraordinarily beautiful.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the Tao is alluring the city and the country.

Yao Jingning's palms were sweating, and she watched Lu Pingting warily.

Lu Pingting glanced at her casually, and said casually, "Madam is really disappointing. Did such a small matter break you down? It's a pity for these children."

Yao Jingning was completely enraged, clenched her hands into fists, and said hoarsely, "What do you want?"

Lu Pingting said: "It's not what I want, it's what you want? Look at your current appearance, you are not a human, a ghost or a ghost, really..."

She shook her hand and walked away dismissively.

Yao Jingning walked to the edge of the pool and saw her reflection appearing on the water surface.

A thin woman with thinning hair, slender limbs, a stomach that is completely disproportionate to her body, and dull eyes, as if she was about to fall down at any time.

She gasped, and couldn't help covering her face, this is not her, this is not her!

She is Yao Jingning who loves to talk, laugh, dare to love and hate, not this bitter woman!

She has three children to raise, and she herself has become like this, how can she raise the children well?The example is not done well.

She called Lu Pingting loudly.

Lv Pingting turned her head in surprise, her face full of despair—Yao Jingning could have killed her by asking, but she didn't regret it.

"Thank you." Yao Jingning said loudly, "I know what to do!"

Lu Pingting pursed her lips, smiled slightly, with some sadness on the corners of her lips, saluted silently, turned and walked away.

When Yao Jingning went back, she begged to see Zhong Weiwei, saying that she would take the child home.

That was her and Qiu Mao's home, and it was also her and her children's home, no matter what, she wanted to go back!
