Lu Meimei was also furious. She couldn't stand others poking at her sore spots, so she got angry and pointed at Madam Liu's nose and retorted.

"Haha, buried with the dead, you are so bold to say that. Who was it that rushed to marry my An'er with a big belly?

The unwanted girl who broke off the engagement now sees that my An'er has become successful, so she is so fickle that she is eager to marry him. Haha, she is so impatient, who knows if the baby in her belly is my An'er's child..."

"Crack...crack..."

Lu Meimei was cursing back with great enthusiasm. It seemed as if she had found an outlet for all the anger she had endured since entering the Marquis' Mansion, and it was unstoppable.

He was cursing happily when Xiahou Wenyuan, who was driven back to the mansion, slapped him twice and sent him flying.

Xiahou Wenyuan was humiliated by Xiahou Zi'an's incident. He was too embarrassed to see anyone, so he pointed at two servants and went out to hide under the pretext of going out to relax.

Before leaving the city gate, he was stopped by servants who had caught up with him and said that the young lady had an accident and her in-laws had come to beat her.

His father-in-law, Minister Liu, is his immediate superior. How could this be tolerated?

He quickly turned the car around and rushed back to the Marquis' Mansion.

As soon as I entered the house, I witnessed Lu Meimei's wonderful performance like a shrew scolding in the street.

His head exploded, and he rushed up without thinking and slapped her twice.

"Master Liu, I'm sorry. You are a magnanimous person. Please don't argue with me..."

Xiahou Wenyuan smiled and apologized to Minister Liu and his wife.

Lu Meimei was slapped and flew away. Her cheeks immediately swelled up like steamed buns, with blood oozing from her nostrils and the corners of her mouth.

This made the butler Qin very distressed, but he didn't dare to go forward to help Lu Meimei up. The other maids and servants didn't dare to do that either.

The pair of dogs/man and woman looked at each other, staring at Xiahou Wenyuan's back with eyes filled with hatred.

Xiahou Wenyuan said a lot of nice things, but Lord Liu and his wife didn't appreciate it at all, especially Madam Liu, whose family was powerful. She was about to get angry.

Xiangmei, Liu Yunrong's personal maid who came with her as a dowry, came running to report.

"Madam, madam, it's bad, the young lady is in trouble, she is bleeding heavily, I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."

Madam Liu was so upset when she heard this that the sky was about to fall. She didn't care about arguing with the Xiahou family. She just said something harsh, pulled Minister Liu, and followed Xiangmei to the courtyard where Liu Yunrong lived.

Xiahou Wenyuan and Lu Meimei also realized that the situation was serious and followed Minister Liu and his wife.

Luoxiayuan was extremely busy at this moment.

The court doctor who treated Xiahou Zi'an's injuries was also sent over. In order to prevent any accidents, two experienced midwives were also urgently invited.

The maids have prepared hot water, scissors and other items as instructed.

When Mrs. Liu saw this situation, her eyes went dark and she almost fainted.

She is an experienced person and knows what it means to prepare these things.

"Rong'er, my poor Rong'er..."

Madam Liu could no longer control herself and broke into Liu Yunrong's bedroom in tears.

Xiahou Zi'an was seriously injured, and his injuries were in a hidden place. He was placed in another courtyard to recuperate and was not in Luoxia Courtyard at this time.

Although Minister Liu was anxious, he was still somewhat rational. He hurriedly asked the two doctors about his daughter's condition.

"Alas!" Both doctors sighed and shook their heads, "Master Liu, your daughter is so anxious that she has a heart attack. Her pregnancy was not good to begin with, and now there are signs of labor. I'm afraid, I'm afraid... Alas, I hope for the best!"

The person who spoke was Doctor Li from Bao'an Hall, who was specially invited by the Liu Mansion and was quite famous in the capital.

Upon hearing this, Minister Liu burst into tears, and some of the hair on his temples turned white visibly.

In the bedroom.

Liu Yunrong's face was pale and her lower body was already bleeding. The two midwives were busy.

Mrs. Liu tried hard to hold back her tears. She held her daughter's hand tightly with one hand and stroked Liu Yunrong's hair which was stuck together by sweat with the other hand.

"Rong'er, don't be afraid, relax..."

"Madam Liu, it's bad. The baby is in breech position. There are two of us, and I will only save one at the cost of my life."

ah--

Madam Liu was shocked, and then said without hesitation, "Save the master, you must save the master, I will pay more, more money."

Although Madam Liu was domineering, she truly loved her daughter. She understood human nature very well and wanted to pay extra money to save her daughter's life.

"No, Bao Xiao."

At some point, Old Lady Xiahou and Lu Meimei also came into the room and joined the battle of saving the elder or the younger.

She had already gone to see Xiahou Zi'an. Seeing how badly he was injured, she was afraid that he would have no hope of having children in the future.

"Bao Da." Mrs. Liu was not to be outdone.

"Protect the little one. This is the bloodline of our Xiahou family. We must protect the little one."

"Bah! Xiahou bloodline? Wasn't it just that Madam Hou was shouting that the baby in Rong'er's belly was not from the Xiahou family? Now you're here to fight for the child again."

The boomerang hit Lu Meimei right between the eyebrows. She lowered her head and turned away, not daring to meet Old Lady Xiahou's sharp gaze.

"Nonsense, Rong'er married into my Xiahou family, so she is my Xiahou family's granddaughter-in-law. The child she is pregnant with is of course my Xiahou family's."

The old lady also started to throw a tantrum, trying to protect her bloodline at all costs.

Liu Yunrong was already dying. When she heard that someone was questioning the baby in her belly, she felt sad and angry, and she exerted force randomly.

The two midwives had been groping with their hands to correct the fetal position, but Liu Yunrong's reckless force caused a disaster.

The two midwives were horrified and panicked, and hurriedly reported the new situation.

"Oh no, oh no, Madam, the Madam, the child, the child is stuck."

Stuck!!

These three words are like a thunderclap dropped on a calm lake, creating huge waves.

The three women shut up and dared not argue anymore.

They are all experienced people and know that in such a situation, there might be two deaths.

The two doctors were also called back to help with the rescue.

Those who were outside the dormitory were kicked out.

Madam Liu and Old Lady Xiahou were still unconvinced. They stood under the eaves, glaring at each other with bulging eyes.

Basins of hot water were streamed in, and basins of bloody water were brought out.

Silence, eerily quiet.

In the entire Luoxia Courtyard, no one dared to say a word except for the sound of the maids' footsteps coming in and out.

It was as if he was afraid that any sound would scare away the souls of Liu Yunrong and the child in her belly.

After a long time, the doctor and the two midwives walked out of the bedroom dejectedly.

Doctor Li of Baohe Hall hugged Xiahou Wenyuan and Minister Liu, shook his head and said, "My Lord, Master Liu, we are not talented, but we have done our best."

I tried my best, that is...

Madam Liu was unwilling to give up. She rushed over and shook the old doctor's arm, "Tell me, is the master saved?"

Another doctor said, "Ma'am, please accept my condolences! Both of them were lost."

Madam Liu leaned against the pillar of the corridor, muttering: Rong'er...

The cry was heart-wrenching. She rushed into the dormitory to see her daughter for the last time.

Poor Liu Yunrong lost two lives. At the last moment of her life, what appeared before her eyes was the young man who spoke to her shyly by the lake.

She regretted it and died.
