Chapter 100 - Sending away
She was so frightened that not only Dr. Wang but also the others in the room couldn't help but think the wrong way ...... Even Su Shi couldn't help but be suspicious: Ping Jie Er was so sick and she still wouldn't let the doctor treat her, was she hiding something from herself?
As she thought of this, Su Shi's heart grew cold. She looked at Su Qingping with a bitter gaze and said in an unquestionable tone, "Ping Jie Er, let Dr. Wang take a look at you!"
"No, don't ......" Su Qingping shook her head, her eyes filled with tears, her face was pale, and she looked so pitiful.
Su Shi finally became impatient and ordered without further ado, "Quick! Hold the (Biao Guiniang )cousin girl down and don't let her move around, let Doctor Wang check her pulse properly."
The three or four maids in the room immediately came forward and held Su Qingping down.
Knowing that resistance was futile, Su Qingping closed her eyes in despair, with only one thought in her mind: she was finished!
Dr. Wang stretched out three fingers and put them on Su Qingping's wrist. After a short pause, he made a diagnosis: "Old Madam, this girl is just having her menstrual period, nothing serious…As for the pain, it is also normal. This girl probably does not pay attention to her diet and eats too much cold and spicy food. Just pay more attention to it, and drink a bowl of brown sugar water later, simply put a soup wrap on it."
Dr. Wang gave her a prescription for nourishing her qi and blood, and left after receiving the consultation fee.
All the people in the room looked at Su Qingping with strange expressions, thinking that this cousin Su was too weird. She was bleeding so much and still refused to let the doctor treat her, but after all, it was just menstrual! They thought that Su Qingping was pregnant before she was married and had a miscarriage!
Su Qingping was also shocked, she couldn't believe her ears, she wasn't pregnant?
What the hell is going on here! If she wasn't pregnant, then why did she have a series of pregnancy symptoms?
But when she saw a blue and white figure in the doorway, she didn't care about the details anymore and stared blankly out of the room.
Nangong Cheng was wearing a sky blue shirt, his face was slightly red, and there were tiny beads of sweat on the corners of his forehead. At this moment, he was looking at Su Qingping with a look of disbelief.
What had he just heard, a menstrual period? That means Su Qingping is not pregnant at all, she cheated him!
At this moment, Nangong Cheng only felt as if a stone was pressed into his chest, blocked.
He was so devoted to her that he even planned to defy his Di mother for her, and this woman dared to deceive him!
Su Qingping felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and her whole body was covered with cold air. She thought to herself: Why did Cousin Cheng appear here? How long has he been here? Did he hear what the doctor said just now?... Judging by his expression, he must have already heard everything.
She opened her mouth to explain, but her lips moved several times, but no sound came out.
In the presence of so many people in the room, Su Qingping could not say anything.
At this time, Su Shi also noticed Nangong Cheng and scolded him with a displeased face, "Old Fourth, what are you doing here? Why don't you go out quickly!"
Nangong Cheng immediately came back to his senses and said, "Mother, cousin Ping she ......" Although Nangong Cheng realised that Su Qingping had lied to him, but seeing her pale face and delicate appearance, his heart could not help but feel a little pity.
"Your cousin is fine, why don't you go out now." Su Shi's sharp gaze fell on Nangong Cheng's body and ordered without question.
Zhao Shi covered the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, her eyes pondered between Su Qingping and Nangong Cheng, could it be that .......
"Yes, mother." Nangong Cheng glanced at Su Qingping again, thinking of the deception he had suffered, he became a bit disheartened and turned to leave.
The corners of Nangong Yue's mouth curled up, revealing a cold smile. A month or so ago, when she learned that Su Qingping was no longer a virgin, she came up with this plan.
The first is in the boudoir school, used medicine to make Su Qingping's menstrual period for a long time, and produce the symptoms of pregnancy, and then just that needle she gave to make Su Qingping's menstrual period surging!
She was already feeling guilty, and naturally she thought she was having a miscarriage, so when she saw the doctor coming, her reaction was even more intense.
Even though Dr. Wang has now confirmed that she is only menstruating and not pregnant, what does that matter?There were so many pozies and maids in the room at the time, they would only have suspicions that she was in miscarriage! Even if the doctor said it was just her period, in the minds of people who didn't know the truth, they would think that Su Shi deliberately said that because she was afraid of losing face.
Today can be regarded as the right time, place and people, and with Nangong Cheng doing this, maybe the rumours that were originally speculative will be passed on in a clear and orderly manner in the end.
Even if they don't dare to say it openly, in private, they might spread it like this!
Seeing that Nangong Cheng had left, Su Shi turned to Su Qingping and said, "Ping Jie Er, you should rest more, we won't bother you anymore." She gave Liu Rong two more instructions and left with a large group of people.
The room was quiet again, and it was only after a long time that Su Qingping came back to her senses and said, breathlessly, "Liurong, do you think cousin Cheng will think that I deliberately lied to him?"
Liurong wiped Su Qingping's sweat and said softly, "Don't think too much, Miss. It's important to get well first!"
Su Qingping shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "It's not that I'm thinking too much. I once told cousin Cheng that I was pregnant, but now the doctor said I was just having my menses. Do you think Cousin Cheng will think I'm lying to him and abandon me?" Speaking of this, Su Qingping felt a sense of despair, she had worked so hard for so long, but in the end it was all for naught, it was ungrateful to think about it!
Liurong could only persuade her bitterly, "Don't think about this for now, you should think about how to get well, and when you are well, you can slowly coax the Fourth Master's heart back."
Su Qingping's spirit was lifted by her words and she said, "Liurong, you are right, the most important thing for me now is to get well. I'm not pregnant anyway, so I have plenty of time." She smiled confidently, she did not believe that with her charm she could not coax Nangong Cheng's heart back.
At a time when Su Qingping was full of ambition, rumours about her were spreading in the Nangong Mansion.
It is rare for the lonely Nangong House to have a scandal to talk about, and it is a scandal about the cousin girl, so how can these servants who are usually bored not have a good exchange!
For several days, the servants were talking and whispering.
Some of them said that Su Qingping had been forcibly defiled and had miscarried.
Some say that Su Qingping misbehaved and got pregnant by a man, and eventually had a miscarriage.
Some also said that Su Qingping was greedy for glory and wealth, but in the end she was deceived by others for money and sex, and she suffered a miscarriage after she became pregnant.
……………….
The various versions of the story are all well documented, and at a later stage, the story of Su Qingping's love life has reached a new climax. It is said that Su Qingping was naturally lascivious and could not live without a man, and some say that half of the servants in the House had been with her ......
Although Zhao Shi disliked Su Qingping and wanted her to ruin her reputation, but now that the rumours have spread and Su Qingping is still living in the Nangong Mansion, if this continues for a long time, it will eventually ruin the reputation of the girls in the Nangong Mansion who are not yet married! She didn't want her proud Zheng Jie Er to be dragged down by this shameless Su Qingping!
Zhao Shi caught a few of her minions who were chewing on her and gave them a heavy beating, then told Su Shi about it.
When Su Shi heard this, she was furious.
"How dare you! How dare you chew behind your back and talk about your master's affairs!" Su Shi was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently. Su Qingping was her own niece, and if she lost face, she would lose face with her. If Su Qingping was really pregnant, there would be nothing one could say about it, the big deal would be to let her marry that man and cover up the scandal. But Su Qingping is not pregnant, yet these people are talking about her in private.
"Mother, what do you think should be done?" Zhao Shi asked with a respectful face, and after a pause, she said with a sense of meaning, "None of the girls in the house have said anything about others yet."
Su Shi gradually calmed down, thought about it, and said, "Then let's send Ping Jie Er to the farmhouse in the name of recuperating her health. We'll bring her back when things are over."
Zhao Shi answered and went to do it.
Su Shi was furious and used extreme force to kill a few more maids and pozis before her anger subsided.
Under Su Shi's suppression, the servants of the Nangong Mansion were silent and no longer dared to say anything about Su Qingping.
That day, Su Qingping finally found out about the rumours about herself and Su Shi's arrangement for her and her heart was as cold as ice. Will she ever have the chance to come back after she leaves?
When she thought of this, she asked Liu Rong to make an appointment with Nangong Cheng, but the result made her even more desperate, Nangong Cheng did not want to see her! He didn't want to see her! She had done so much for him, but in the end it was all for naught!
Su Qingping clenched her fist reluctantly, but there was nothing she could do.
After three more days, Su Qingping was sent to the village to recuperate, leaving quietly, without a single person to see her off, and as for the match between her and Mr Wang, it was naturally put on hold.
The weather has become very good with the departure of Su Qingping, the sky is blue, the white clouds are long, and the sun is warm.
After lunch, Nangong Yue took a short rest and then started the lesson assigned by Fang Ru.
When the girls were given the assignment to draw a picture of the moon, Nangong Yue drew a picture of Chang'e running to the moon.
She rubbed her wrist, which was a bit sore, when she made the last stroke, only to find that Yi Mei had entered the room at some point, holding a post in her hand, and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
Usually, when Nangong Yue was writing or drawing, she would have her maids stand guard outside the house.
When she saw that she had put away her brush, Yi Mei hurriedly handed the post in her hand to Nangong Yue and said, "Third Miss, an invitation for you has come from the Gou Gongfu."
When she heard of the Gou Gongfu, Nangong Yue had an idea in her mind and took the invitation.
The invitation was purple in colour with a silver burin pattern, exquisite and intricate, with a faint fragrance of jasmine, the favourite scent of the young girls in the royal capital recently.
"She had done so much for him!" Haha, like what? Just sex-related things? So far as we readers know, he was the only one giving physical gifts, and they mutually gave each other physical affection. it wasn't mentioned that she helped him with connections or status or, like, massaged him at the end of the day or anything. What is she thinking she did for him that we readers don't know, I wonder~
ReplyDeleteI think the author is trying too hard with misdirection. We had strong reason to believe Qingping was actually pregnant because MC was thinking about how she was pregnant at this time and got with her father, so the baby probably isn't even his. If Qingping isn't even pregnant, what was MC making such a big fuss about then? The baby in the first reality could still be her father's.
