Chapter 185.2 - Lost the child
“This servant … this servant doesn’t know. The brocade was fine before but it was just this tea, and then it suddenly became like this.” Qiu Chi was about to cry as she kneeled and kowtowed.
But as her head faced downwards, her mouth corner curled up into a mocking smile.
“It’s not like the tea was poisoned!” Lou Qufeng yelled at her, how could the residence have such a stupid maidservant!
But just as he was about to say something, behind him, Chi Mei’er suddenly cried out in pain.
She nearly fell down in pain as beside her, Ruan Zhen quickly hurried to support her.
Her face was anxious, “Ah, Mei’er little sister, what is it? Don’t scare big sister, what happened?!”
Ruan Zhen’s cry made Lou Qufeng immediately rush back to Chi Mei’er.
There, he saw Chi Mei’er grabbing her stomach, nearly rolling in pain.
When Chi Mei’er saw him approach, she quickly grabbed his sleeve, her little face was hurting so much that it was sweating, her face pale, “Lao, laoye, stomach … my stomach hurts … save … save our child .. ah …!” Her scream scared everyone there.
Lou Qufeng also began to panic, screaming to the people outside, “Hurry and get the doctor! Get the doctor here now!”
“Yes! Yes!”
The whole Fragrant Plum Park was a mess, Lou Qufeng was anxious for his child, picking Chi Mei’er up into his arms as he walked to the bed.
He put her down as he comforted her, “It’s fine, it’s fine, the child will be fine!”
“Laoye …” Chi Mei’er was shocked to death, she couldn’t lose this child, she definitely couldn’t lose this child!
Ruan Zhen and Qiu Chi soundlessly turned to face each other as their mouths curled up into smiles.
Ruan Zhen then leaned in closer, her eyes strange, “Laoye, this Mei’er little sister was fine before, but how could she suddenly be in danger of a miscarriage all of a sudden? Did she b.u.mp into something unclean?”
Ruan Zhen’s timely reminder made Lou Qufeng suddenly think of the blackened brocade!
He suddenly stood up, striding towards the two brocade rolls.
He angrily glared at them as he touched a black piece before looking at the wet tea stain on the ground.
“Did the tea have poison in it?”
“Laoye, how could the tea be the culprit? Little sister didn’t drink any tea …” Ruan Zhen carefully reminded him.
Lou Qufeng’s face suddenly changed, smelling something.
His brows furrowed as he leaned in closer to the brocade and sniffed it carefully, his brows knitting even closer together.
He suddenly turned to Lou Qingwu, “Qingwu, what is the smell on the brocade? Why does it smell like that?”
The brocade was wet with tea but the smell wasn’t from that.
And following that smell, Chi Mei’er suddenly screamed even harder ….
“Smell? There’s nothing.” Lou Qingwu walked closer as she tilted her head before shaking her head.
“I can’t smell anything?”
“That strong and you can’t smell it?” Lou Qufeng’s eyes flashed coldly.
But thinking of when Lou Qingwu saved the fourth madam before, he was hesitant to be so suspicious of her.
But at this time, a figure suddenly burst in.
Lou Yun’er had just received news when she rushed in.
When she heard Lou Qufeng rebuke Lou Qingwu, she instantly grew furious.
She ran to pounce onto Lou Qingwu, “Lou Qingwu, give me back my brother’s life!”
Lou Yun’er hadn’t even gotten close before being stopped by Lan Bai.
Lou Yun’er looked at Lan Bai, growing even more furious, “It was definitely because of her that you’re still holding a grudge right! Lou Qingwu, I’ll fight you! Originally, I thought you saved my mother and you were a good person but who knew that you were so poisonous! If it wasn’t for that cup of tea, wouldn’t you be able to slip away scot-free! Exactly what did you put on that brocade?!”
Lou Yun’er’s screaming accusations made everyone turn to face Lou Qingwu.
Then thinking about how the fourth madam did indeed touch the brocade, their eyes grew wary.

TL note:
People who love jumping to conclusions: Lou Yun’er
* Lou Yun’er’s talking about that time when she wanted to kidnap and kill Lan Bai because Lou Qingwu foiled her attempts at seducing Xiahou Rui.
Leave a comment and because I’d be holding a grudge too honestly. xx
