She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

Lian'er was observing the pulse pillow on the table. When she saw Doctor Wu come in, she quickly put it aside.

"Miss Du, sorry to have kept you waiting." Doctor Wu sat down and placed the medicine bag he had just taken out on the table.

"I just checked, and this medicine does contain herbs that are not conducive to female fertility and will cause loss of Qi and blood."

"Doctor Wu, how can we remedy this?" Lian'er asked hurriedly.

"The medicinal properties of the herbs are different in each person's body, and it also depends on how much your friend drank."

Lian Er was in charge of making the medicine, and she knew it very well. "I drank eight sets in total, one set every two days."

"After drinking it for half a month, it became quite serious." Doctor Wu frowned and asked, "Why did she drink this medicine at that time?"

Before coming out, Aunt Tong had already explained everything, so Lian'er naturally couldn't tell the truth.

"They said it was a tonic, someone gave it to me."

Lian'er was worried that she would be out for too long, "Doctor Wu, why don't you prescribe some medicine for her to drink first to remove the toxicity or something."

"I can't prescribe it." Doctor Wu shook his head. "Without confirming her condition, even if you are a miracle doctor, you dare not prescribe medicine at will."

"Miss Du, go back and tell your friend to come to me immediately." Doctor Wu's face was solemn.

"To tell you the truth, there's more than just Tripterygium wilfordii in the medicine. The other two ingredients are even more harmful. If you have a weak constitution, you'll probably get sterilized."

"Ah——?" Lian'er widened her eyes in shock.

"Let her come quickly. There may still be a chance to remedy the situation." Doctor Wu reminded again, "If we delay for some more time, no one will be able to save us."

"If your friend finds it inconvenient, you can come to the clinic at this time today. I'm usually here."

After Lian'er left, Xu Rui came out from behind the screen with a frown on his face.

Aunt Tong has never given birth, so this tonic is probably to strengthen her body and help her get pregnant as soon as possible.

As a result, the tonic turned into poison.

And the one who can deliver tonic medicine to the concubine in the mansion is naturally of higher status than her.

"Doctor Xu, I just said everything according to your instructions." Doctor Wu said respectfully.

"Yes, I heard it." Xu Rui nodded, "If she brings someone here tomorrow, you will still be the one to receive them."

Aunt Tong has seen him, so he can't show up.

He wanted to wade into the muddy water of the Marquis' Mansion to find out who was causing the trouble.

-

Lian'er returned to Hexiangyuan and told Aunt Tong what Doctor Wu had said.

Sure enough, Aunt Tong's expression immediately changed, "Sterilization?"

Her lips were trembling. "Did you really say that?"

"Yeah." Lian'er nodded.

"Auntie, I have confirmed this with Doctor Wu several times. He said that in addition to Tripterygium wilfordii, there are two other herbs in the medicine that, when boiled together, will trigger toxicity and cause great harm to women."

Aunt Tong suddenly burst into tears and gnashed her teeth, "Madam, she is so cruel!"

"I have served her for many years and done so many things for her, but she asked me to be sterilized!"

The grief and anger surged up and overwhelmed her reason.

"I'm going to find her and ask her why she is so heartless."

"Auntie, please don't go." Lian'er hurriedly stopped her, "Even if you go and ask, the old lady won't admit it."

"Also, Doctor Wu only said that the worst outcome would be sterilization, but that might not be the case for you. He told you to go as soon as possible and prescribe medicine based on your condition. There is still a chance to remedy the situation."

Aunt Tong calmed down a little, "There is still a chance..."

"Yes." Lian'er helped her sit down, "You are still so young, and you haven't eaten for long."

Lian Er glanced outside and confirmed that no one had come in, then added, "Young Madam has also taken this tonic, and your complexion is much better than hers."

Aunt Tong was shocked, "Lian'er...you said that the young lady...her complexion has been getting worse and worse in recent years. Is it the old lady..."

Although she didn't finish her words, Lian'er, who had been in the mansion the longest, understood immediately.

Li Jingwan has been unable to get pregnant, and it is probably due to Madam Qin's doing.

They were both in doubt and confusion. Finally, Aunt Tong said, "This is just our guess and cannot be made public. I will go to the clinic and let the doctor take a look."

The concubine cannot go out at will. She must get the permission of the mistress if she wants to go out.

The next morning, Aunt Tong went to see Li Jingwan and said that she wanted to go out of the house to buy some things and stroll around.

Li Jingwan agreed, "I'm about to leave the house, let's go together."

"Madam, I'll go out in the evening. It's too hot during the day."

Li Jingwan nodded, "Okay, be careful when you go out, take the maid with you, and don't stay too late."

She had important things to do today. The caravan returned to the capital last night. Xiang Mingfang sent someone to give her a message and made an appointment to meet today.

The meeting took place at the old place, in the backyard of a shop owned by Li Jingwan.

Xiang Mingfang and Zhu Gaozhi were both there, and Li Jingwan smiled when she saw them.

"Uncle Xiang, Coach Zhu, it seems that the northwest sun is very strong. You two have both been tanned."

Zhu Gaozhi still has a loud voice and a hearty laugh.

"That's right, Miss. I almost melted in the sun during the day. Fortunately, it's cool in the morning and evening. The climate and soil of the capital are good for health."

"Then you haven't been to Jiangnan." Xiang Mingfang was familiar with him and often joked, "After you've been there for a while, I guarantee your skin will be better than that of the girls in Beijing."

"Why should I, a grown man, have good skin?"

After a few jokes, we got back to business.

Xiang Mingfang first talked about the caravan's business trip to the northwest.

"The goods are still being sold at the border market. This time the quantity is large, but they are selling faster than last time. Especially high-quality silk and tea, they are in great demand."

"According to your instructions, I bought two shops in the border market. One is used to sell goods, and the other is the base of Shunchang Escort Agency in the northwest."

"On this return trip, we bought a lot of specialties from the Northwest Border. The escort vehicle was fully loaded and is still in the escort agency."

Li Jingwan had already thought of a solution. "Uncle Xiang, open a specialty store in the capital and sell the specialties you bring back in the store. The price will be higher."

"Yes." Xiang Mingfang nodded and took out the account book and handed it over.

"Miss, the income and expenditure of this trip to the northwest are all in it, please take a look."

Li Jingwan took it but didn't open it. She naturally believed in Xiang Mingfang's character. "How is the profit?"

"Excluding the money used to buy the shop and the special products, I made 50,000 taels of silver on this trip."

"Not bad." Li Jingwan nodded with satisfaction.

"Uncle Xiang, the profits will be distributed according to the agreement. Each escort who participated in the escort will receive an extra 100 taels as a reward, which will be deducted from my share."

"Miss, you don't have to pay, I'll do it." Zhu Gaozhi said anxiously, "You've already paid the escort very high wages."

"Wages are wages, and rewards are rewards." Li Jingwan said with a smile, "Everyone is risking their lives to work for me, so it's not too much for me to give them some rewards."

Seeing Zhu Gaozhi's eyes full of admiration and excitement, Xiang Mingfang sighed in his heart that Li Jingwan was worthy of being Li Dingzheng's daughter, and she was generous and magnanimous in her work and treatment of others.

From now on, the entire escort agency will be more loyal to her.
