Chapter 335 Heartwarming Action!
Rong Yue dared not accept this. She quickly gestured to Mu Qing to help pull the person up.
"Third Miss, it's not that I don't want to help you, but the Eldest Miss is also ill right now. She just took her medicine and is sweating it out inside. If she gets up now and goes outside, she'll definitely catch a chill. That would probably make her condition worse. We can't bear that."
Granny Yu also advised, "Yes, Third Miss, the Eldest Miss herself hasn't recovered yet, how can she help Aunt Yang? Besides, doesn't the manor have its own physician? And didn't Aunt Yang prepare a midwife and doctor for herself? It's alright, didn't I hear the child has already been born?"
"Granny, I beg you. Please ask my eldest sister to go over there. My aunt is bleeding heavily right now, and I'm afraid she's not going to make it. Granny Yu, I'm begging you."
The others could tell that Yang Xinyi was really worried; her eyes were swollen from crying. After all, she was still a child, and how could she not be anxious when she heard that her mother was in trouble?
Inside the room, Mu Xin Nuan slowly opened her eyes, a cold glint flashing in them. She coughed twice, startling Liu Tingting, who quickly helped her up.
As soon as Liu Tingting helped her up, she noticed that Mu Xinnuan's back was damp, indicating that she was sweating.
"Eldest sister, you've only just started sweating, so why don't you just leave it alone? Doesn't the manor have a physician?"
Mu Xin Nuan shook her head. "I'm fine now, and I don't feel dizzy anymore. Since my third sister has come looking for me, I should go. I can't let her hold a grudge against me."
Liu Tingting thought it made sense. If she didn't go now, and something really happened to Aunt Yang, Mu Xinyi would definitely push all the blame onto her elder sister. At that time, the Mu family would probably start to be unstable again.
"But elder sister, is it your own body?"
"It's alright," Mu Xin Nuan said, then instructed Mu Hua, "Bring me my light blue cloak."
"Yes, Miss."
The crying and arguing outside continued unabated when Mu Hua came out. "Third Miss, please stop crying. The eldest young lady has come out with the young lady. However, the eldest young lady is currently sweating profusely and has no strength. Please go ahead first, Third Miss. The eldest young lady will take a sedan chair."
"That's wonderful. Thank you, elder sister, thank you, sister Muhua."
"Third Miss, please go quickly." Mu Hua didn't say much more to her, after all, this was a matter of life and death.
Mu Xinyi ran out in a mix of tears and laughter, not daring to delay for even a moment.
Liu Tingting naturally accompanied Mu Xinnuan in a sedan chair. Originally, she thought that Mu Xinnuan did not want to save Yang Shi, since she was just a concubine. If she saved her, she would probably offend her second aunt completely.
No matter what, the second aunt is the rightful mistress of the second branch of the family. It's not worth offending her because of a concubine, is it?
Therefore, Liu Tingting always thought that Mu Xinnuan was faking illness on purpose and that she had only called her over to find a witness!
But when Liu Tingting helped her up, she discovered that she was indeed sweating profusely, which left Liu Tingting somewhat bewildered! She wasn't sure if her older sister was truly ill. Could it really be such a coincidence?
In fact, Liu Tingting knew very well that even if Mu Xinnuan chose not to save Yang Shi, there was nothing to question! After all, she was just a concubine. Anyone with a brain would choose to side with the mistress. Who would care about the life or death of a concubine?
Moreover, Liu Tingting was determined that even if she discovered that Mu Xinnuan was faking her illness, she would not reveal a single word to anyone.
But who would have thought that Mu Xin Nuan would ultimately choose to save Yang Shi? This was quite unexpected.
When Mu Xin Nuan and Liu Ting Ting arrived at the delivery room, there were already many people gathered outside, including Li Shi and Jin Shi.
"Anuan, didn't you say you were sick? Why did you come here again?" Li asked worriedly, looking at Mu Xinnuan's pale face.
Mu Xin Nuan shook her head and glanced at Jin Shi beside her. "She's fine now. She just sweated a bit. Besides, my third sister asked Yue Xuan for help, so I can't just sit idly by. If Grandfather finds out, I'm afraid he'll get angry again."
Jin's eyes flickered, and when she turned to look at Mu Xinyi beside her, her gaze became sharper.
Mu Xinyi was only focused on saving her mother and didn't pay attention to any of this.
"Big sister, please go and take a look."
Mu Xin Nuan nodded, gently patted Li Shi's hand to reassure her, and then, accompanied by Granny Yu, they entered the delivery room together.
Liu Tingting was still quite young and probably didn't realize it. But Li Shi understood; Mu Xin Nuan had deliberately told Jin Shi that it wasn't her own choice to come, but rather that Mu Xin Yi had begged her to come.
In other words, now that she's here, whether or not Yang is saved, Jin can't blame her! After all, since Mu Xin Nuan has studied medicine, she has a duty to heal and save lives! If she hadn't come and knew nothing, that would be one thing. But since she's here, she can't deliberately cause someone's death and show her incompetence, can she?
Mu Xinyi watched as basins of bloody water were still being carried out, and her little face turned as white as paper!
Liu Tingting comforted her, "Third sister, don't worry, everything will be alright."
Mu Xinyi nodded blankly. In fact, she hadn't heard a word Liu Tingting said.
Madam Li sighed softly, "Where is the Fourth Miss? Is there a wet nurse serving her?"
Jin nodded, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. This Aunt Yang doesn't trust me, the mistress of the house. She even chose her own wet nurse."
Li raised an eyebrow and looked around. "Where is my second brother?"
"Oh, the master just heard the child crying and said he's going to check on him, lest anything else goes wrong." It wasn't hard to detect the sarcasm in Madam Jin's tone.
This time, Madam Li remained silent. The affairs of the second wife were indeed quite turbulent! If there was discord between the husband and wife, it was even more so between the wives and concubines! The concubine was extremely wary of her mistress!
But then again, this Yang family member is also a fool!
She's made things so obvious; if she doesn't survive, so be it. But if she does survive, how will she live with the second wife's family?
If she had given birth to a son, she might have received some of Mu Changping's affection, but unfortunately, she only gave birth to a daughter. It is likely that in the future, Mu Changping will no longer protect her excessively.
She seems to have given birth peacefully, but how will she live in the future? Constantly having to guard against the mistress? How can a mere concubine like her possibly manage that? Especially since she has no powerful family background!
Thinking of this, Li shook her head, a look of regret on her face.
