Chapter 45 Wait and see what happens
"I understand." Su Wanyu nodded gently, quickly calculating the time in her mind, thinking that this was enough time for her to complete her plan. "What about Aunt Jiang?"
Doctor Wang lowered his head and said weakly, "I have already followed the Second Young Madam's instructions and told Aunt Jiang that the child has been aborted."
Su Wanyu pulled out a thin silver needle and asked indifferently, "Does she believe it?"
Doctor Wang nodded quickly: "Of course she believes it. I have served in the Jiang family for more than ten years. She will not doubt it."
Su Wanyu put down the needle and thread in her hand, her eyes fell on the unfinished golden osmanthus pattern, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Very good, you did a good job, this is your reward."
Afterwards, Siqi handed a heavy box of silver to Doctor Wang.
After Doctor Wang took it, his face was filled with a flattering smile: "Thank you, Second Young Madam, thank you, Second Young Madam."
Su Wanyu glanced sideways, a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes, and glanced at him coldly.
After spending more than ten years in the Jiang Mansion, he finally betrayed his old master for money. It's really sad.
She winked at Siqi, who understood and calmly arranged for someone to escort Doctor Wang out of the mansion.
Yun Yi held a cup of hot tea in her hand, walked lightly to Su Wanyu's side, and whispered, "Miss, Aunt Jiang probably never dreamed that the person she trusted the most would betray her and become a pawn in our hands."
Su Wanyu took the teacup, took a sip, and whispered, "This is not the only thing she hadn't expected."
It turned out that she had specially sent Siqi to the old lady to ask for a doctor the night before, deliberately making Jiang Yingying anxious and forced to invite Doctor Wang from the Jiang Mansion overnight.
Before this, Su Wanyu had already planned for a long time and spared no expense to bribe Doctor Wang.
Doctor Wang was greedy for money. Not only did he reveal the secret that Zheng Chengyan had difficulty getting pregnant, he also readily accepted the conditions to work for Su Wanyu.
Of course, Su Wanyu did not really intend to use him. She had already placed spies outside his house. If he made any move that was not in her favor, someone would take his life.
Yun Yi massaged Su Wanyu's shoulders and asked in confusion, "Miss, since this child is destined to be lost, why did you ask Doctor Wang to tell her that the child had been aborted? Isn't this unnecessary?"
Su Wanyu did not answer directly, but just curled up a meaningful smile at the corner of her mouth.
Siqi leaned close to Yunyi's ear and lowered her voice, "Now that she thinks the child is gone, she will naturally try every means to get pregnant again. And the second young master Zheng is powerless, who do you think she will ask for help? Yes, she will definitely go out to look for someone, and then the whole city will be in an uproar..."
Yun Yi suddenly realized and looked towards his young lady with admiration in his eyes.
Su Wanyu remained calm and composed, sipping her tea leisurely.
Siqi approached her, peeled a few delicious fruits for her, and said with a smile: "Let's wait and see how she digs her own grave with her own hands."
Su Wanyu put down the teacup, her eyes were as clear as water, and a faint blush appeared on her fair face. Compared with Jiang Yingying, she seemed ten years younger.
As Su Wanyu had expected, Jiang Yingying couldn't wait to start planning how to get pregnant again in order to maintain her position in the Zheng family as soon as Doctor Wang left.
"Qingyue, is cousin Yu going back to the capital soon?" Jiang Yingying's eyes were deep and her tone was firm.
Qingyue came back to her senses and quickly replied, "Yes, aunt."
A complex emotion flashed across Jiang Yingying's eyes: "Okay, notify me as soon as he arrives."
This cousin Yu is a treasure of the old lady's family, a young talent named Yu Jingxuan. He and Zheng Chengyan are not only cousins with a blood relationship, but also close friends who can talk about anything.
Yu Jingxuan came from a prominent family. His father was an important official in the court, holding the second rank. He was so powerful that he even seemed to surpass Lord Zheng.
However, this noble young man from a prominent family has another side that is unknown to the public.
He was a playboy and a dissolute man. In his early years, he was a frequent visitor to Zi Yan Pavilion, spending a fortune just to win the smile of a beautiful woman.
To this day, I am still addicted to drinks and beautiful women. I often get hangovers and wake up in the morning light, not knowing where I am.
The reason why Jiang Yingying chose Yu Jingxuan as part of her plan was because she keenly sensed his desire for her beauty.
The Zheng and Yu families have close contacts, and even if the truth is revealed, Yu Jingxuan will not easily make it public. This became the cornerstone of her plan.
She secretly thought that once she had Yu Jingxuan's child, not only would she be able to cleverly conceal the fact of the miscarriage, but she would also be able to gain support and protection from the Yu family in the future.
Qingyue was still ignorant of her master's thoughts, so she just bowed her head and agreed meekly to serve her medicine: "Yes, Auntie."
Fate seemed to be particularly kind to Jiang Yingying. After a few days of recuperation according to the prescription prescribed by Doctor Wang, the heart-wrenching bleeding miraculously stopped.
The master and servant looked at the sky clearing up after the rain, and the sunlight shining through the window into the room, their hearts filled with hope.
Jiang Yingying used her pen as a medium and poured her heart and soul into sketching out affectionate lines of poetry on paper, totaling more than ten pages. Between the lines are all the bits and pieces of her life in the Zheng Mansion. Although it is bitter, it is also full of tenacity.
She carefully put the letters away and placed them in an exquisite wooden box, and when the time was right, she entrusted it to Qingyue.
"When my cousin returns to the city, help me hand this to him personally. Remember, you must hand it to him personally."
Although Qingyue didn't quite understand the deeper meaning, she nodded obediently, took the envelope with both hands, stared at it for a long time, and finally agreed meekly.
After Yu Jingxuan received those letters full of sorrow and expectation, his heart was deeply touched. How could he miss such an opportunity to win the beauty?
As soon as he returned to the capital, he couldn't wait to go straight to Zheng's house.
Relying on his status as Guo's cousin, Yu Jingxuan frequently went in and out of Zheng's house on the pretext of visiting his sick aunt. Finally, when no one was around, he quietly walked into the bluestone courtyard where Jiang Yingying lived.
All this was thanks to Su Wanyu's careful arrangement. She quietly cleared out the guards in the courtyard, so that Yu Jingxuan's whereabouts did not attract anyone's attention, and he successfully arrived at Jiang Yingying's boudoir.
"Yingying." With a gentle smile on his face, he softly called the beauty in the room.
Jiang Yingying was sitting on the edge of the bed, threading her needle on the brocade. She looked up when she heard the voice and saw the person coming. She quickly stood up. Soon, tears fell like pearls from a broken string: "Yu... Young Master Yu..."
Before she could say anything, the eldest master quickly stepped forward, hugged her tightly in his arms, and comforted her: "Don't cry, I'm here, believe me, I won't let the Zheng family bully you again."
Jiang Yingying nodded gently in his warm embrace. Unlike Zheng Chengyan's aloofness, the eldest master had been hanging around in entertainment places for many years and knew well how to please women.
