Chapter 1194: Chapter 1200: Scratching One’s Face (4)

Lady Wu dared not show disrespect to her mother-in-law, and upon hearing her words, she could only bow slightly and said, "I thank you for your auspicious words on behalf of Xiang Yun, Old Madame."

Having said that, she wiped her tears and left.

After Lady Wu had gone, the Old Madame tapped on the babu bed and said to Mo Zili, "Look at this, look at this! It’s all because of your good-for-nothing self that I, an old woman, still have to watch my daughter-in-law’s face. Why are you so good-for-nothing, eh? It really makes me Angry to Death!"

Mo Zili’s face turned red, and he knelt down again, saying, "This grandson is guilty, I leave it to Grandmother to punish me!"

The Grandmother glared at him, and seeing his pathetic appearance, although her heart was filled with anger and hatred, she couldn’t bear to truly punish him, so she spat fiercely and said, "Now you don’t even have the Ancestor’s rules in your eyes, let alone consider this broken old woman as something significant. Enough, enough, get away from here and go to your heart’s desire, so I don’t have to see you and get angry..."

Saying this, she was helped up by the Girl and left, huffing with anger.

When everyone had left, Lady Bai helped her son to get up and said, "You’ve been kneeling for quite a while, go and rest. Look, you’re sweating with pain on your forehead..."

Mo Zili stood up, turned to his mother, and said, "Where is she? I want to see her!"

Upon hearing this, Lady Bai twisted his arm hard and said, "It’s such a critical moment, and yet you still want to go to her room? Are you deliberately trying to incite public outrage, or do you want to make me Angry to Death?"

Mo Zili said, "I just want to ask her explicitly how she became pregnant. I’ve been telling her to drink the ’avoid child’ soup!"

Lady Bai sneered and said, "If you go now, nine out of ten she’ll claim there was something wrong with the soup medicine and refuse to admit she did it on purpose."

Saying this, she started cursing through clenched teeth, "That damn Cheap woman! She’s too ambitious, actually hoping to give birth to the Eldest Son of Duke Li Guo’s Mansion, truly detestable!"

Though she was furious and cursing, she still couldn’t bear to see her son anxious, so she ordered the Little Guys to carry Mo Zili to Du Wanqing’s Small Courtyard.

Du Wanqing had been Awake for a while, awakened by the fiery Severe Pain on her face. After waking up, she realized she was lying in a shabby room with two maids To serve her. Seeing her Awake, one maid exclaimed, "Oh, you’re awake, quickly go call the Imperial Physician."

"Alright! Doctor Zhang, Doctor Zhang—" the other maid shouted loudly as she went out.

Du Wanqing touched her burning Cheek and said, "May I ask, old palace maid, where is this? Is there a Mirror? I’d like to see my Face."

The maid Laughed and said, "Girl, this is the Duke Li Guo’s Mansion. The Grandmother has ordered that children with incomplete souls can’t look in mirrors, so all the mirrors in the room have been collected already."

Du Wanqing said, "I would trouble you, old palace maid, to look at my Face. Is the Wound deep? Will it be possible to heal without scarring?"

The maid looked at Du Wanqing’s Little Face, now marred Like a flower, and clicked her tongue in sympathy, saying, "Such a pity for the Girl’s original Good Look. With such a deep Wound, it would be strange if it didn’t scar. Who could be so heartless to inflict such a heavy blow, tsk tsk..."

Hearing this, a heavy blow struck Du Wanqing’s heart, and she was stunned.

The most valuable thing on her body, and what she took the most pride in, was her lovable little face. If her Look were marred, would Mo Zili still love her? What could she use to compete for the position of Young Madam?

Seeing that Du Wanqing was so struck she seemed to have lost her soul, the maid tried to comfort her, saying, "Don’t worry, Girl. Even though your Face is marred, your body carries a precious burden. Now that you are Pregnant with Young Master Li’s Bone and Flesh, if you can give birth to a Son in the future, especially as the Eldest Son of the Second room, perhaps the Old Master and Grandmother will be so pleased they’ll overlook this. Then, your good days will come..."
