Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: Has the Culprit Been Found?

But others don’t think the same way.

Not to mention others, just talk about Ding Yuehua’s mother-in-law, who is difficult to get along with. Seeing that she hasn’t been pregnant yet, the things she says behind her back are terribly unpleasant.

Fortunately, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law don’t live together, otherwise, there would have been constant trouble.

Besides her, there was also a grandmother who joined in the commotion.

When Third Young Master Fan and his wife split from the family, they bought a new house on Fenghuai Street, not far from Shu Yu’s courtyard. At that time, the old lady wanted to move in with them, returning from the Manor in the suburbs.

But Ding Yuehua knew how the old lady had abused Hua Xian and realized she wasn’t as kindly as she appeared, so she refused to let her move in.

As a result, the old lady wasn’t happy and would occasionally talk to Third Young Master Fan, saying that having no elder in the home, the young couple didn’t know anything, and they still hadn’t conceived a child because their bodies weren’t nurtured well. She wanted to move in to help and kept talking about this, trying to live with the Fan family.

Third Young Master Fan was decisive, and Ding Yuehua had discussed the old lady’s issues with him. Therefore, despite their polite demeanor, the couple was united in their stance.

When the old lady couldn’t get her way, she claimed Ding Yuehua couldn’t bear children, and insisted Third Young Master Fan couldn’t be without offspring, demanding to give him a concubine, which infuriated Ding Yuehua nearly to the point of coughing blood.

Shu Yu thought it would be even harder to conceive under such distressing circumstances.

Who would have thought, she actually did?

But Ah Ning mentioned, “Her pregnancy seems unstable. Earlier, when my master and I returned home, we ran into her maid coming to ask for Brother-in-law to check. Brother-in-law was busy, so only my master and I went over. My master said she shouldn’t get upset and should watch her diet, personally preparing medicine for her. We’re not sure how she’s doing now, but Sister Ding’s mother has gone over to care for her personally.”

Shu Yu frowned, Ding Yuehua’s pregnancy was indeed full of twists and turns.

“Second Sister, are you going back to the county town tomorrow?” Ah Ning asked.

Shu Yu returned to her senses, nodded, and said, “Yes, do you want to go home with me?”

Ah Ning furrowed her brows, looking conflicted.

After a while, she sighed and said, “No, I’d better stay with Master for a few more days. How about I sleep with you tonight, and you take me back to the Tan family tomorrow?”

“Okay.” Shu Yu patted her head, making the little girl smile happily.

Later, Meng Yunzheng returned.

Shu Yu glanced at him, and he just shook his head.

Shu Yu was a bit surprised; she knew why Meng Yunzheng went out.

Meng Yunzheng had sent a letter a while ago regarding the unusual population trading phenomenon in the Capital Prefecture agency, and now Qi Lie should’ve replied.

Meng Yunzheng went out to see if there was any news.

From his indication, Qi Lie’s reply hadn’t arrived?

With no news from the capital, all they could do was continue to wait.

That night, Ah Ning excitedly crawled into Shu Yu’s bed, chirping away.

Shu Yu seized the chance to ask her, “Ah Ning, was the perpetrator who poisoned Young Master Tan found?”

The little girl leaned against her shoulder, shaking her head, her soft hair brushing against Shu Yu’s chin.

“No, my master said Old Master Tan put in a lot of effort to investigate, and uncovered involvement from a steward in the family. The servant who died earlier attending Young Master Tan and the assistant cook in the kitchen were silenced by that steward. But the steward also died, leaving us without the real source of who provided the poison.”
