The pregnant woman pressed down on the wife, and the cousin collapsed into the prince's arms.
Chapter 2 A Frail and Delicate Guest Enters the Marquis's Residence
As time passed, the maid who had found the bracelet left the mansion to get married. She also grew tired of the bracelet's style, so she sent it to the pawnshop.
Lin Yaoniang was imprisoned in this bracelet, which was eventually bought by a young man and given to his younger sister Lingdang as a birthday gift.
Lingdang was born intelligent and obsessed with medicine. As Lin Yaoniang grew up with this girl, she gradually became familiar with various medicinal herbs and prescriptions.
As she learned more and more about medicine, she suddenly realized that her mother's prescription was not a cure at all, but a mild poison!
It turns out that her mother wasn't suddenly seriously ill, but had been poisoned! The appetite-stimulating medicine she had taken during her pregnancy, along with fatty foods and nourishing soups, had all become the culprits behind her large fetus and difficult labor!
This was all a scheme from beginning to end. Although Su Wanrou was ignorant of pharmacology, her maid, Zhou Mama, was someone her mother had chosen to take care of her health—someone well-versed in medicine!
Everything makes sense now. Su Wanrou, that venomous woman! She's ruthless in achieving her goals. First, she drugged her mother, forcing her to enter the mansion as a tool for bearing children. Then, she pretended to send her tonics to help with the pregnancy, but in reality, she deliberately fattened the fetus, ultimately leaving the child behind and eliminating the mother.
However, Su Wanrou had already ruined her family and caused her death, but her child was completely innocent!
When Su Wanrou was still unable to conceive, she would hold Zhan'er in her arms and love him dearly. But as soon as her own child was born, she couldn't wait to get rid of this illegitimate eldest son who was getting in her way!
How could she be so cruel?!
Hatred grew wildly in Lin Yaoniang's heart, and just as it reached its peak, fate played a strange joke on her—she was reborn.
She was no longer Lin Yaoniang, but Shen Yunshuang, the extremely beautiful cousin who had kept Su Wanrou awake at night.
When she was first reborn, it was so bizarre that she was in a state of confusion.
She not only retained her memories from her previous life, but also Shen Yunshuang's memories from before.
She didn't understand why she had been reborn as Shen Yunshuang. In Lin Yaoniang's memory, due to the hardships of the journey and her longing for her deceased mother, she had only been with her aunt for three months when this frail cousin passed away.
And now, although her health is still not very good, she is not dead! She is still alive!
This result is already excellent! She has changed her identity, but she is still in the Pei family mansion, and her enemy, Su Wanrou, is also very close.
Having figured all this out, Lin Yaoniang wept bitterly, determined to dedicate her life to revenge! Her hatred had been building up for far too long, and she would not allow Su Wanrou, that venomous woman, to have a peaceful end in this life!
_
Because of a nightmare last night, Shen Yunshuang did not look well. Sitting in front of the dressing table, she unconsciously touched her forehead.
Xuezhi gathered up the young lady's cloud-like hair and inserted a green snow-white hairpin.
Seeing the deep weariness on Shen Yunshuang's face and the dark circles under her eyes, Lürui softly asked, "Would you like to apply powder today, Miss?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yunshuang looked at herself in the mirror. In her previous life, she had no connection with this cousin. Only now, seeing her in this life, did she understand why Su Wanrou was so wary of Shen Yunshuang.
The girl in the mirror had beautiful eyebrows, captivating eyes, a delicate nose, and cherry lips—every part of her was beautiful. Most importantly, she possessed a charming and delicate temperament; even her slightly furrowed eyebrows evoked a sense of tenderness and pity.
Her skin was as white as snow, and she was naturally beautiful. She rarely wore makeup, but today she looked really haggard, so she nodded and asked Green Plum to cover her eyes with powder.
Just then, a maid came to report that Shiliu, the head maidservant of her aunt, had arrived. Shen Yunshuang, not even bothering with her makeup, hurriedly asked someone to invite her in.
Although she was Wang's own niece, she was a newcomer. As the saying goes, it's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with his underlings, so the head maidservant by her aunt's side naturally couldn't be neglected.
Shiliu was invited in by the maid. She was tall and slender, wearing a light green satin jacket and a ginger-yellow long skirt. Her black hair was adorned with two pearl flowers, and she wore a coral bracelet on her wrist. Judging from her attire, she was even more elegant than the young ladies outside.
She had an oval face and a gentle demeanor. At this moment, she smiled slightly and entered, first giving a curtsy and saying, "This servant greets Miss Biao. I heard that Miss Biao's health is gradually improving, and Madam is very concerned about her. She specially sent this servant to invite Miss Biao to invite you to Fuxi Hall for a chat."
While Shi Liu was speaking, she couldn't help but secretly observe Shen Yun Shuang. She had seen quite a few beauties, but the one in front of her was truly exceptional. Not only was her face flawless, but her figure was also graceful and captivating.
When Shen Yunshuang heard that her aunt wanted to see her, how could she refuse? In her memory, Madam Wang had been extremely fond of her niece. When she first arrived, she hugged her and cried, and then arranged for her to stay in the quiet and beautiful Ningxiang Residence.
However, the original owner of this body was exhausted from the long journey and missed her deceased mother, so she fell ill as soon as she arrived. Wang was very distressed and sent a doctor to see her. She also inquired about her health every day. Now that she heard that she had recovered, she couldn't wait to see her.
"Shuang'er also misses her aunt very much. Please allow me to get ready and then I will go with you, Miss."
Since Shiliu was waiting outside, Shen Yunshuang didn't dress up too elaborately. She changed into a dark blue cloud-patterned soft silk dress, dyed her lips light pink, and applied some rouge to her cheeks, making her beautiful face look even more radiant. After getting ready, she went to Fuxi Hall with Shiliu.
It was the height of summer, and the flowers in the garden were blooming in a riot of color. Shen Yunshuang saw a cluster of "Rouge Snow" flowers in full bloom, with large blossoms and layers upon layers of petals. A gentle breeze carried a delicate and refreshing fragrance that was truly delightful.
Passing through the garden and then through the pink and white moon gate, you will see a tranquil lake with a four-cornered pavilion on it, which seems to be used for cooling off and admiring the lotus flowers.
The Pei family had been officials for generations and had accumulated enormous wealth, as evidenced by the extravagance of their own garden.
It took about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before we arrived at Fuxi Hall.
There were already maids waiting in the covered walkway. When they saw Shen Yunshuang arrive, they stepped forward with a smile and said, "Miss, you've finally arrived. Madam has been missing you so much that she can't sleep at night."
Shen Yunshuang knew that this was Liu Mama, who was highly regarded by Madam Wang, so she didn't dare to be presumptuous. She smiled slightly and nodded as a greeting.
Liu's mother was quite attentive to Shen Yunshuang, personally helping her into the main room.
It is the height of summer now, and even with an umbrella, it is still hot. However, upon entering Fuxi Hall, one can feel a slight coolness. The main room is spacious and bright, with a lychee-red cloud-patterned carpet on the floor and several bronze tripods in the corner, each containing ice.
Today, Madam Wang was dressed in an indigo brocade jacket and an ivory satin skirt. When she saw Shen Yunshuang arrive, she was naturally very happy and raised her hand to call out, "Shuang'er."
Shen Yunshuang smiled, quickly stepped forward, curtsied, and called out, "Aunt."
"No need for formalities, please sit down." After Wang finished speaking, another maid came forward and helped Shen Yunshuang to a seat.
Madam Wang then ordered hot tea and snacks to be served, and held Shen Yunshuang's hand, examining her closely: "You've lost weight, but your complexion is still good. Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Wang is no longer in her early forties. Thanks to her good maintenance, her skin is fair and firm, making her look like a beautiful woman in her thirties.
Looking at Wang's beautiful face, Shen Yunshuang was momentarily dazed. Besides the original owner's filial piety, she also remembered Wang's words when she had a difficult childbirth in her previous life: "Leave the child, not the mother."
Besides Su Wanrou, Wang Shi was also an accomplice in pushing her to her death.
