Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 139 Gusu Lin Mansion

The old woman leaned against the wall and paused. Her breathing gradually calmed down and her emotions were no longer so excited.

She slowly opened her eyes, revealing a hint of fatigue and helplessness.

Then he slowly began to speak: "Everything was going well. The baby was about to be born. I could even see the baby's head."

She paused, as if recalling the tense and expectant scene.

Then she continued, "I told my concubine that it was time to start exerting force.

If you just try a little harder, the baby will be out soon.

The concubine was very cooperative. She seemed to be using all her strength to welcome the arrival of the new life.

However……"

Her voice suddenly became heavy.

"At this critical moment, a maid from the First Lady's room came to tell me that the First Lady had asked me to go to her room immediately to claim the reward.

I thought to myself, the baby hasn't been born yet, so I'll still have time to go over after the birth.

But the girl refused to give up and insisted that I go with her immediately.

She even threatened me, saying that the eldest wife is now the legitimate wife, and who dares to disobey her orders?

The old woman frowned, a look of anger appearing on her face, but she suppressed her anger.

Then she said, "I just didn't listen to her and continued to deliver Concubine Ruxue's baby. After all, human life is at stake, how can I just leave like that?

Unexpectedly, that girl rushed into the delivery room, forcibly grabbed my arm, and dragged me out."

As she spoke of this, her tone became more excited.

"How could I possibly leave? I'll never leave!

Amidst the shoving and pushing, Ruxue was affected by our intense quarrel and suddenly started bleeding.

I hurriedly pushed the girl's hand away and shouted at others to lock the girl out of the room.

However, things did not go as I wished, and the situation became worse and worse.

Ruxue gradually lost her breath, but the blood in her lower body kept flowing more and more, and the baby was stuck in the birth canal.

I started calling her name frantically, but she still didn't respond.

At that moment, I had only one thought in my mind: I had to save one of them! So, I used all my strength to pull the fetus out again.

Unfortunately, due to the long delay, the baby's face had turned purple, and after delivery, he only let out a few weak cries before passing away."

When the old woman said this, she was already crying uncontrollably.

That's two lives lost!

Such a good child, he left before he could see the world!

After the old woman finished speaking, she continued to put paper ingots and ghost money into the brazier and continued to burn it.

"October 1st, send winter clothes..."

Daiyu stared at all this in a daze. What the old man said was like a bolt from the blue. Thinking about everything she had experienced in the palace, was she really a wolf in sheep's clothing?

Daiyu didn't know what happened next, and the old woman didn't tell her, but she roughly guessed it.

It was nothing more than that the eldest wife complained to the prince first, and then took the opportunity to get rid of the poor old man, and Ruxue and the child died tragically!

This was the first time Daiyu felt a chill on her back. Although she was locked up in the woodshed, she thought it was just a minor punishment and was soon released.

Now it seems that the First Lady and Concubine Lan must have colluded with each other, and the so-called lost gold and jade should have been a play performed by them!

Thinking of this, she suddenly wanted to see the prince and tell him everything, but she was already in this place, so how could she get out to see the prince?

I don’t know how long it took, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and the dew gradually rose.

After the old woman had burned all the paper money for the dead, she saw Daiyu was still waiting for her, so she pulled her into the room as if she were her own daughter.

My prince, I wish my heart could be exchanged for yours, so that we can stay together every night and never leave each other!

Daiyu thought and thought, listening to the old man's snoring, and slowly fell asleep.

"Concubine, I have found out." Early in the morning, Xiaowan came to Jiaorou anxiously.

Jiaorou had just gotten up and was putting on makeup. She quickly waved to Caiyue and the others, signaling them to go downstairs.

Xiao Wan hurriedly whispered in her ear, "I heard they were taken to the eldest lady's darkroom for some unknown reason!"

Jiaorou suddenly realized that something was wrong and immediately put down the powder in her hand.

I thought to myself that this was terrible. That place was not a place that ordinary people could go to. Even if people didn't die, they would be skinned alive.

So, she quickly grabbed Xiaowan's hand and said anxiously, "Xiaowan, don't worry, listen to me. You have to go out and find help right now!"

Xiaowan looked at Jiaorou bewilderedly and asked softly, "Does Concubine Jin want me to go to the grassland to find the prince?"

"No, is there anyone else in your Yufu's family that she can rely on? It's time to prove her identity!" Jiaorou said while thinking secretly in her heart.

Xiao Wan thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is, but he is just a servant of the master of the Lin Mansion.

After all, Master Lin has been dead for many years, and we can’t rely on those other prominent people either!"

“Go to Lady Yu’s hometown and look for that servant.

"Have him take out Master Lin's imperial edict and have them come to the palace gate to ask for the Grand Concubine's return. It would be better if we could start a scene!"

Xiaowan suddenly understood that someone should come forward to prove Yu Fujin's identity!

Her father was Mr. Lin, the salt collector, and her mother was the eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion. Her background was superior to that of any other lady in the mansion.

Now the only way to save her is to reveal everything, otherwise it would not be easy for the eldest lady to execute a woman!

Just like that, Jiaorou took out a few ingots of silver and placed them in Xiaowan's hand: "Here are ten taels of silver. Take it. You'll need it on the road."

Xiao Wan took the silver with some surprise, her eyes full of gratitude: "Concubine... thank you."

Jiaorou gently patted Xiaowan's hand and said with a smile: "Xiaowan, you can go on your way with peace of mind. I will take care of everything here."

Then, Jiaorou hired a carriage, personally sent Xiaowan on the carriage, and instructed the coachman to make sure to take Xiaowan to her destination safely.

Xiaowan sat in the carriage, looking through the window at Jiaorou's figure gradually disappearing into the distance, her heart filled with reluctance and gratitude.

Jiaorou stood there, watching the carriage leave until it disappeared from her sight.

She took a deep breath, turned around and went back to the mansion.

"Yu'er, what's wrong with you?" He called out urgently, his voice full of concern and worry.

"Yu'er..."

"Woooooooo..."

She sobbed softly, tears rolling down like beads from a broken string, wetting her pale cheeks.

He looked at her with heartache, his eyes full of pity and helplessness.

He reached out to touch her face, but found his fingers passing through her body, as if she were just an illusion.

He widened his eyes in shock, unable to believe what he saw.

He tried to calm himself down and understand what was going on.

But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't find the answer.

He could only watch her cry, his heart filled with pain and self-blame.

He felt he should do something to comfort her, but he didn't know where to start.

"Don't cry..." he said softly, hoping to ease her sadness.

However, she seemed not to hear his words, still immersed in her own world, crying non-stop.

He felt extremely frustrated and lost, and he knew he couldn't just give up.

He looked at Daiyu quietly and called out loudly: "Yu'er..."

Suddenly, he saw her figure becoming more and more blurred, gradually moving away from him.

His eyes widened in horror and he quickly reached out to hold her.

However, his hand only grasped the void, and she had disappeared into the distant sky.

He stared blankly in the direction she left, his heart filled with despair and sadness.

The prince suddenly woke up and found himself still in the marching camp.

It turned out to be just a dream, and Yu'er in the dream was crying so sadly.

The prince thought, although it was just a dream, why was it so real? Why was Daiyu crying so sadly?

Could it be that Yu'er is in danger?
