Hu Xiuxiu's belly was not obviously pregnant, and she was probably only a month or two old, but the furnishings in the room looked like they had been inhabited for a long time.

And when she came in with the old woman, her fearful look was obviously directed at her mother.

So Gu Yiyi guessed that Hu Xiuxiu's matter was not as simple as the old woman said.

After she pushed the old woman away, she emerged from behind the screen after a while and said.

"Xiuxiu, can you still remember me?"

"My cousin who once took you out to play in Pingshan Town, Gu Yiyi. I'm here today to take a look at your body. I know you may have unspeakable secrets that you can't tell others, but your body is your own. If something happens to you, those who persecute you will People who want to see your jokes, don’t they get what they want?”

"Xiuxiu, I have no ill intentions towards you. Can you let me have a look? If possible, I will be in front of you soon."

She waited quietly for a while, and when she saw there was no movement inside the screen, she tentatively stretched out her feet.

Hu Xiuxiu still lowered her head and curled up with her legs in her arms.

But after Gu Yiyi came closer, she didn't yell as loudly as before. Although she didn't say anything, Gu Yiyi also guessed the trust she gave her.

So I sat by the bed and was surprised to find that the bedding was actually damp.

Moreover, her body was even thinner than what she had just seen from a distance. It could be described as skinny.

His face was haggard and there was no color at all, as if there was a piece of flesh hanging on his frame, but his abdomen was bulging.

Just now, Gu Yiyi stood far away and didn't look carefully. Now when she looked at it, she immediately frowned.

She first stretched out her hand to feel Hu Xiuxiu's pulse. As her brows furrowed deeper and deeper, certain emotions suddenly surged in her heart.

It had probably been more than two months, but her body was in a state of severe malnutrition. If she were to have a forced abortion at this time, it would be tantamount to killing her.

After an inspection, Gu Yiyi walked out with a calm look.

As soon as she opened the door, the old woman couldn't wait to greet her and asked, "Yiyi, how's it going?"

When Gu Yiyi looked at her with an unhappy expression and cold eyes, the old woman's heart trembled.

She put away the medicine box and simply said: "If you want her to die now, then tire now."

When the old woman heard this, she was puzzled: "Yiyi, what do you mean by this? It's just a tire slip, why is it linked to death?"

Seeing that she was still pretending, Gu Yiyi couldn't bear it anymore and said coldly: "Don't you know what you feed her every day?"

"Mrs. Hu, your daughter only has a skeleton now. If she doesn't eat something good, how can her body withstand such great harm?"

"You keep saying you love your daughter, but you can't even protect the most basic things. Is this how you act like a mother?"

The old woman was stunned and explained subconsciously.

"Yiyi, I am your elder after all, you can't talk to me like this.

What's more, am I treating her badly? It's your sister... you saw it just now. She doesn't let anyone get close to her at all. If she gets mad, only I, the mother-in-law, have to find someone to treat her! "

Gu Yiyi was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and just said: "Her body can't bear it. If you want to remove the child, you must first feed her well, eat something good, and make her body healthier."

After saying these words, he picked up his feet and started to leave.

When the old woman saw this, she immediately ran to Gu Yiyi and said anxiously.

"According to what you say, how long will it take for Xiuxiu to have an abortion? Her belly can't bear it!"

Gu Yiyi suddenly raised her lips and said bluntly: "If her stomach can't bear it, can her life be saved?"

After looking coldly, the old woman did not dare to stop her, and could only watch Gu Yiyi walk out of the house.

Her face was pale, her brows were tightly knitted, and she was full of anger.

The servant came over to comfort her: "Madam, don't be familiar with her. She is just a country woman. It's not worth it if she hurts her body!"

Mrs. Hu turned around and vented her anger on her.

"Can't I usually ask you to feed her more food?! It's fine now. The time is coming. If I die, I can't explain it! If the child doesn't miscarry, I can't explain it either!!"

The servants shrank aside, not daring to say anything more.

Gu Yiyi left the house angrily, glanced at the Hu family sign on the mansion, and a sharp look flashed in her eyes.

This place is not far from Dongshi. I thought I was already in the city, so why not go to Fanggui Tower.

Shopkeeper Jin was flattered when he saw her arrival and hurriedly came out of the backyard to greet her.

The boys next to him also greeted her politely. Nowadays, Gu Yiyi is a VIP-level presence in Fanggui Tower. She is their favorite, and they all expect her to make big money by selling top-notch goods.

The money tree is here, don’t provide for it well!

Seeing this, the discerning boy had already made tea and prepared snacks and brought them over.

Gu Yiyi was not polite to them. Thinking of what happened in Hu's house, she spoke bluntly.

"Shopkeeper Jin, do you have anyone you can trust in the city to help with things?"

When shopkeeper Jin heard this, he immediately realized that Gu Yiyi had a need.

He glanced at the servants around him and told them to leave. When they were the only two people left in the room, Shopkeeper Jin came closer and asked, "Madam, what do you need someone to do? Let me introduce you to someone."

Shopkeeper Jin has been in the Imperial City for so long and has been around for so long, so there must be some people like this.

She knocked on the table and said, "You saw it in my yard before, my aunt."

Shopkeeper Jin nodded repeatedly, and then Gu Yiyi continued.

"I want you to find two people you can trust to help me keep an eye on the Hu family's house in the east of the city. If you see anything or find out anything, come and tell me.

I give them money every day, and I will not treat them badly. "

Although Shopkeeper Jin didn’t know what happened, to him, it was completely trivial!

"Madam, don't worry, I will find someone for you right away to keep an eye on the Hu family."

Gu Yiyi smiled and said sincerely: "Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Jin."

"Madam, why are we still so polite in our relationship? If you still need help in the future, just tell me."

Gu Yiyi drank the good tea in one gulp before preparing to leave.

Shopkeeper Jin quickly got up and went to deliver it. When he came to the shop, Gu Yiyi suddenly saw several foreigners choosing jewelry.

She couldn't help but stop and take a look. One of them had some similarities with Mr. Mei's facial features, so she took a few more glances.

Shopkeeper Jin asked doubtfully: "Do you know Madam?"

Gu Yiyi shook her head: "I'm just curious. Are they all barbarians from the Western Regions?"

"Yes, since the opening of the trade route between the two countries, more and more barbarians have come to our imperial city to do business.

But, those things they have are not that good. Just the jewelry is not as exquisite as ours. But only the coral jade they have is top-notch.

It used to be reserved for the royal family, but now we can also buy it, as long as we have money. These barbarians also look different from us. They are tall and powerful, just like mutants. "

Gu Yiyi was laughed at, but she couldn't help but think of Mr. Mei in her mind.
