"What’s in Xinxin’s soup?"
Hearing Lin Yuan’ai’s words, Mrs. Mo also looked nervously at the floor.
It seed like there were so small, dark red granules inside.
Mo Chuxi held Yan Xinxin and ran straight to the door, and Mo Qingning followed, with the two little ones not far behind.
Lin Yuan’ai squatted down, picked up the granule-like thing, and without caring if it was dirty on the ground, put it directly into her mouth and chewed it a few tis.
After chewing a few bites, Lin Yuan’ai’s face changed.
"Why is there hawthorn in the soup! Isn’t this supposed to be goji pigeon soup? How could there be hawthorn in it!"
"What! There’s actually hawthorn!"
Mrs. Mo’s face also changed dramatically.
Fu Zixin, standing nearby, blinked in confusion.
"Mom, what’s wrong with hawthorn? Can’t cousin-in-law eat hawthorn?"
She asked in a bewildered manner.
"Silly girl! Of course, your cousin-in-law can’t eat hawthorn!"
Standing next to her, the old lady Mo Yongshu imdiately jumped in, her face exaggeratedly displaying tension.
"Pregnant won can’t eat hawthorn, it can cause miscarriage! Even though your cousin-in-law’s pregnancy seems stable at five months, this pregnancy has been fragile from the start, and now having eaten hawthorn, it could cause uterine contractions, leading to a possible miscarriage or preterm labor!"
"How could it be this serious!"
Fu Zixin exclaid in shock.
anwhile, Lin Yuan’ai and Mrs. Mo’s faces were already dark and worried.
Mrs. Mo picked up the whole pot of pigeon soup, stirred it with a spoon, and found a dense amount of hawthorn at the bottom.
Even if Yan Xinxin didn’t notice and ate so hawthorn, thinking it was goji berries, with so much hawthorn in it, the flavor would definitely seep into the broth, and drinking so much would surely be harmful to her!
"There’s so much hawthorn in here, soone clearly put it in on purpose!"
Mrs. Mo said angrily.
"Who did this! Who made this pot of pigeon soup?"
She asked the maids sternly.
All the maids lowered their heads and said nothing.
"Grandma, it’s not their fault, I know who made this pot of pigeon soup."
Fu Zixin quickly interjected.
Lin Yuan’ai looked at her.
"Zixin, quickly tell us, who was it!"
"It was Qingning! Recently, she seems to like making these soups, didn’t she also make a pot for cousin-in-law a few days ago?"
Fu Zixin blinked innocently and waved her hand.
"But Qingning wouldn’t do such a thing!"
"Oh no!"
As soon as Fu Zixin’s voice fell, Mo Yongshu was startled, her face showing a ’not good’ expression.
"Before dinner, I felt a little hungry and wanted to get so fruit from the kitchen, and I happened to see Qingning with a bag of hawthorn, she even asked if I wanted any, but I didn’t think much of it!"
"Ah Shu, are you serious about what you just said!"
Mr. Mo couldn’t sit still and asked sharply.
"Dad! It’s true! If you don’t believe , you can ask Qingning! Uh... where is Qingning?"
"Qingqing usually likes to eat hawthorn, but she would never do such a thing!"
"That’s right! Qingqing and Xinxin have a great relationship, why would she do sothing to harm Xinxin?"
Lin Yuan’ai and Mo Qifeng were convinced of Mo Qingning’s character.
"Well, that’s not necessarily true."
Mo Yongshu said sarcastically.
Mrs. Mo glared at her.
"What do you an by that?"
"I heard that Qingning confessed to a young man nad Xiao Yize not long ago, but was rejected because he said he liked his nephew’s wife, which is Xinxin!"
"What?"
"Xiao Yize? The second young master of the Xiao family? He likes Xinxin?"
"Huh? Uncle, aunt, you didn’t know? Qingning confidently told that everyone knows about Young Master Xiao’s feelings for cousin-in-law and even warned not to gossip, I thought you knew?"
Fu Zixin blinked with an innocent face and asked.
"That explains it!"
Mo Yongshu quickly added fuel to the fire.
"Qingning must have done this because she couldn’t accept being rejected out of love! Oh my! I never expected Qingning to be so ruthless!"
