Chapter 72
Mu Yunyao lowered her head, her long lashes trembled slightly . “Then, I must trouble Sister Yin Hong to lead me . ”
Seeing that Mu Yunyao was about to do a greeting, Yin Hong quickly moved to the side . “Miss, this servant here doesn’t dare accept that . The carriage has been readied, this servant shall wait at the door for Miss . ”
Seeing that Yin Hong had a frightened expression, Mu Yunyao gave a tiny smile and did not say a word . She went into the room and notified Su Qing . Then, she went to change and followed Yin Hong to the carriage .
Everything in the Cao residence was as orderly and neat as before, except that the servants were all tensed up and cautious .
Mu Yunyao saw Lady Jin and was shocked at her state . “Lady, what happened?”
Lady Jin, who used to be as radiant as the sun, was as pale as a ghost . There was obvious weariness on her face . When Lady Jin heard Mu Yunyao’s voice, she stood up and held her hand while waving the other servants away . “Leave the room, the rest of you . ”
When the servants left, Lady Jin pulled Mu Yunyao to the side . She seemed thin and pallid, her voice filled with anxiety and pain . “Yunyao, I don’t know how to thank you . If not for you, I would have continued being my naive self . ”
Seeing that strong woman wither into this frail form, Mu Yunyao felt uncomfortable . “Did Lady discover something?”
“Before, you had tasted out that the snack had hints of bitterness . I got Yin Hong to bring the snack to a physician to test out for any suspicious substances . We ended up discovering that there was Chuan Ceng grass in it . This herb is extremely cooling . The reason why I have been unable to bear any children for so many years is because of the fact that I have been ingesting this for a long time . ” Lady Jin did not hide anything .
“Although I am only a daughter of one of Father’s concubine, I have never been treated badly in any way . When I got married, my dowry was also especially generous . I had thought that I was an important part my family and thus I had always been secretly delighted with myself . I have spent many years trying to give back to my family, but……who knew? In the end, I am still just a chess piece of theirs……”
Mu Yunyao was not especially surprised . Since the person was able to openly mess with Lady Jin’s food without getting caught for so long, it must mean that the person was someone Lady Jin trusted . “Lady does not have to be too sad, it is not too late . Since we have found out the reason for your inability to birth children, we can just do the necessary steps to cure you . ”
Lady Jin laughed bitterly and used a handkerchief to wipe away her tears . “How can it be that simple? My body should be completely destroyed after so many years . ”
“Lady is a very gentle person who has done many good deeds . I’m sure the heavens will not be this unfair to Lady . As long as Lady rests and nourishes herself properly, your body will naturally be cured . ”
Lady Jin grabbed Mu Yunyao’s hand and said breathlessly, “Yunyao, you know how to help me? As long as I can give birth to a child, no matter a boy or a girl, as long as it is in my power, I will agree to do anything for you!”
Under Lady Jin’s anxious gaze, Mu Yunyao slowly nodded her head . “Lady, although I do have a bit of medical knowledge, I cannot compare to those physicians . I can only do my best . ”
“Good, good, doing your best is good enough . ” Lady Jin was crying from extreme joy .
She knew that she had gambled right . Before, Mu Yunyao had hinted to her that there was something in the snack, which means to say that she had knowledge in the medical area . Now, Lady Jin felt that everyone around her was dangerous, if she were to find a physician to heal her, would he inform her family? And if they do find out, what would become of her? “Yunyao, I have no idea how to properly thank you . ”
“If Lady really feels that you need to, there is something that Lady can help me with,” Mu Yunyao gave a tiny smile .
“Say it, say it, as long as it is in my power, I will do it . ” Seeing that Mu Yunyao was very straight forward with her request, Lady Jin felt relieved . This just meant that Mu Yunyao had the confidence to heal her .
