The next day.
Xie Ruilin got up slowly, surrounded by her maids.
As soon as she got up, she naturally received pampering and care.
"When did Song Yanqing leave?" Xie Ruilin asked.
Recently being pregnant, she felt sleepier than before.
As a result, she basically couldn’t feel when Song Yanqing left.
And Song Yanqing was even more considerate and gentle than others, always very cautious, afraid to wake her.
Xie Ruilin was becoming more and more satisfied with her current life.
The only dissatisfaction was that she had not yet reclaid her status as the official wife.
And she.
Of course, she wanted to take it back.
"Miss, just as dawn broke today, the young master went to attend the morning court and he hasn’t returned yet," Chun Tao replied while combing Xie Ruilin’s hair.
Xie Ruilin nodded.
She was just asking casually.
The conversation turned, "Has Qiao’er that girl still not confessed?!"
"Replying to Miss," Chun Tao respectfully said, "This morning before Miss woke up, I went to see Qiao’er early. Qiao’er is still stubbornly tight-lipped, not saying anything. I just went to apply punishnt again, but she still refused to admit it."
Xie Ruilin’s face clearly looked displeased, "This stubborn girl, her mouth is actually so tough!"
"All forms of private punishnt have been used," Chun Tao said through gritted teeth.
Unexpectedly, Qiao’er’s resolve was so strong.
She had initially thought that a severe punishnt would soon make Qiao’er unable to withstand it and confess.
"There’s a way," Xie Ruilin said.
"What good idea does Miss have?" Chun Tao was sowhat excited.
She also couldn’t wait for Qiao’er to confess early.
After all, the longer these matters drag on, the more complicated they beco.
The longer it drags on, the more prone to errors it becos.
Xie Ruilin smiled coldly, "What does Qiao’er care about the most?"
Chun Tao was stumped by Xie Ruilin’s question.
"Aren’t you usually smart?" Xie Ruilin said with a reproachful tone.
She would have thought Chun Tao could have answered such a simple question imdiately.
"It’s the servant’s stupidity, please punish ," Chun Tao quickly admitted her mistake.
Xie Ruilin glanced at Chun Tao and said, "Qiao’er is refusing to admit her guilt to death because she believes she can prove her innocence. But if we tell Qiao’er that if she doesn’t confess, Xie Ruotong will be implicated, guess what Qiao’er will do?!"
Chun Tao suddenly understood.
The Miss ans.
The person Qiao’er cares about most is the young madam.
Just tell Qiao’er that unless she takes all the bla on herself, the Song Family will start to suspect the young madam. Only if Qiao’er admits the cri was entirely her doing, and unrelated to the young madam, can she clear the young madam of any suspicion.
After understanding, Chun Tao quickly said, "After finishing dressing up Miss, I will go find Qiao’er again."
"Be smart," Xie Ruilin reminded.
"The servant understands."
Xie Ruilin looked at herself in the copper mirror.
Seeing her skin smooth and radiant, she has obviously been well-cared for during this period.
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Xie Ruotong wants to compete with her? No way!
...
Xie Ruotong woke up today also feeling a bit of discomfort.
The cold from last night seed to have given her a slight cold.
Fortunately, having practiced martial arts for years, her body was still robust.
Not so weak as to be overwheld by a cold.
Feeling only a slight discomfort, she didn’t take it seriously, thinking it would heal naturally in a few days.
Right now, her only concern was Qiao’er.
She feared that as ti dragged on, Qiao’er wouldn’t be able to endure it.
Thinking of everything Qiao’er was enduring right now...
Xie Ruotong couldn’t help but clench her fists.
"Young madam," Mu Dong’s voice ca from outside the door.
Xie Ruotong quickly said, "Co in."
Mu Dong was carrying a bamboo basket as he entered, saying, "I’ve prepared so dicinal soup for the young madam, please drink it while it’s hot."
Xie Ruotong was sowhat surprised.
"It was the young master who instructed to prepare it," Mu Dong quickly explained, "The young master was worried about you catching a cold last night, so he specifically ordered . I was worried about gossip, so I waited until I could avoid so scrutiny before preparing it for the young madam."
The so-called avoidance of scrutiny, is it for fear that Xie Ruilin would find out?!
Since when did the Song Family beco so fearful of a concubine?!
Just because of a child?!
Xie Ruotong suppressed her emotions, keeping her composure.
She took the dicinal soup handed by Mu Dong, drinking it while asking, "Has the young master been helping investigate?"
"Replying to the young madam," Mu Dong said respectfully, "The young master has not yet returned from the morning court."
