When He Yuzhu saw Zhou Caixia and her three sons walking away, he closed the door directly. Without caring about the mess they left behind, he quickly walked to Bai Yingying who was still retching, and took out the porcelain bottle that Xu Changping had just handed to him.

Bai Yingying smelled the contents of the porcelain bottle and immediately stopped retching. She sat there to regain her strength before she said to He Yuzhu with tears in her eyes, "Zhuzi, I didn't mean to vomit. When my mother came over just now, I couldn't help it when I smelled her."

"It's okay, you'll be fine now, just lie down and take a nap, I'll make you something to eat." He Yuzhu was still thinking about Xu Changping's action when he gave him the medicine bottle, so he smiled and comforted him.

"Yeah." Bai Yingying replied weakly and closed her eyes.

He Yuzhu stood at the head of the bed, looking at Bai Yingying's pale face and the bulging belly under the quilt, his eyes couldn't help but darken.

It would be best if her illness was caused by her pregnancy. If someone really wanted to harm her and her child on purpose, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

After taking another look at Bai Yingying who had fallen asleep, He Yuzhu turned around and left the bedroom and went to He Yushui's room next door.

Because He Yushui had been living on campus and seldom came back, He Yuzhu discussed with her during the renovation and decided to build a kitchen in the corner of her room.

He Yuzhu turned on the stove in the kitchen, put the casserole porridge he had made in the evening back on the stove to heat it up, and then went out to the east courtyard.

In the east wing, Xu Changping, who was preparing medicine, heard a knock on the door. He glanced at the clock on the wall and thought to himself: I didn't expect that He Yuzhu is so efficient and has dealt with Bai Yingying's family in such a short time.

He immediately shouted to the outside of the door: "The door is not locked, just come in!"

When He Yuzhu opened the door, he saw Xu Changping busying himself at the table in the living room. He said a little embarrassedly, "Brother Xu, I..."

"Brother He, come here first!"

Xu Changping interrupted what He Yuzhu was about to say and waved at him.

He Yuzhu saw Xu Changping's actions and walked towards him, while guessing in his mind the purpose of why he asked him to come over.

Seeing He Yuzhu standing beside him, Xu Changping said, "Brother He, your sister-in-law is vomiting so badly now because she smelled the incense in the shrine."

"How could that be? We have always been lighting this incense at home!" Although He Yuzhu had some guesses in his mind, he couldn't help but say it after hearing Xu Changping's words.

"The secret love fragrance will accumulate in the human body. When it accumulates to a certain level, it will cause pregnant women to feel nauseous, vomit, and lose their appetite. Then they will start to suffer from insomnia at night, and finally cause premature birth."

After Xu Changping finished speaking, he glanced at He Yuzhu with an unpredictable look, and then continued, "Because of long-term inability to eat and sleep, the pregnant woman's body will be very weak, and it is easy for one death and two lives to be lost during childbirth. Even in the best case scenario, the baby's life can be saved."

"You mean, the incense we are lighting now is called secret love incense, which will cause Yingying to have a difficult delivery." He Yuzhu's expression was very gloomy at the moment. Anyone who knew that someone wanted to harm his wife and child would not be able to remain calm.

"Well, where does this incense in your house come from?" Xu Changping couldn't help but ask.

This kind of incense is not easy to make, and the raw materials are extremely precious. In the past, large families made it as a treasure in their daughters' wardrobes when they got married.

He felt that Bai Yingying's mother didn't look like she came from a big family, so it was hard to say where the fragrance came from.

"The incense was given to me by my mother-in-law. She said it was obtained from Baiyun Temple in the past and can bless your sister-in-law to have a safe delivery. I asked someone to look at the incense, and they said there was no problem, so I agreed to order it." He Yuzhu said gritting his teeth.

He Yuzhu also came from the future, so he roughly knew that one should not wear makeup when pregnant. This fragrance was not a chemical product, but something pure and natural and non-toxic, so he did not care about it.

At this moment, he not only blamed Zhou Caixia, but also blamed the system in his body in his heart. After he came here, he had always trusted the system in his body, but he didn't expect to be stabbed in the back by the system.

"System, didn't you say this incense is not poisonous? How could this happen now?"

"Host, this system is now severely damaged. It only has a beauty function and can roughly distinguish common poisons."

"You, I am really mad at you."

He Yuzhu was choked by his own system and ignored it. He turned to Xu Changping and asked:

"Brother Xu, can you detoxify her now?"

"Detoxification? Oh, Brother He, you misunderstood. My sister-in-law is not poisoned. As long as she stops smelling the fragrance, there will be no problem."

When Xu Changping heard what He Yuzhu said, he knew he had misunderstood. How could something grown as a treasure for wealthy families be poisonous?

"Is that so? But your sister-in-law won't give birth for another four months, and I can't look after her every day!" He Yuzhu said helplessly.

Since this matter concerns Bai Yingying's mother, even if he has all the means at his disposal, he has to consider her feelings. Besides, he always feels that there is some hidden story behind this.

"I prepared a sachet for my sister-in-law and asked her to carry it with her. It can neutralize the smell of secret love." Xu Changping said as he put the herbs he had just sorted into a small purse and handed it to He Yuzhu.

"Thank you, Brother Xu. I'll leave first. I'll send you the medical fee later." He Yuzhu took the sachet and said gratefully.

He had long known through his connections in the factory that Xu Changping was treating Li Huaide and his wife. He had previously thought that the person who had passed the news to him was exaggerating. He did not expect that when Xu Changping came to his home today, he would immediately see the truth about Bai Yingying's morning sickness.

Fortunately, Yingying vomited violently at night today, and he didn't have time to find other doctors, so he went straight to find Xu Changping.

"It's okay, we are all neighbors."

Xu Changping said something polite, and when he sent He Yuzhu to the door, he spoke again:

"Oh, this kind of incense is not easy to come by. In the past, it was given as a dowry to the daughters of wealthy families to prevent concubines from being spoiled."

After hearing what Xu Changping said, He Yuzhu was suddenly shocked. He remembered that Bai Yingying once said that she grew up with her grandfather when she was a child. Her grandfather used to be a very powerful businessman. Later, after her grandfather passed away, she was taken back to her parents' home.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu nodded gratefully to Xu Changping and hurriedly ran towards the central courtyard.

When he got home, he didn't rush to wake up Bai Yingying. He went to He Yushui's room first, served a bowl of hot meat porridge, and put some pickles in it and took it back to their room.
