Chapter 221 The Past 2
After listening to the old lady's words, the mother-in-law's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

Now there are only two choices before her, life or death, it's all in her mind.

The old woman gritted her teeth, said "I'm sorry" silently in her heart, then raised her head and said to the old lady:
"The servant is willing to give the medicine to the second lady to drink, and begs the old lady to spare the servant a way to survive."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction, and signaled the servant girl to move her legs away.

The servant girl was ordered to lift her legs and leaned over to help the mother-in-law up.

Recalling being taught a lesson by her mother-in-law in the past, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and calmly squeezed her waist. The pain caused her to grin her teeth and her face was deformed.

The old lady acted as if she hadn't noticed the servant girl's act of avenging her personal revenge. She drank tea and looked at the branches swaying in the wind with her eyes outside the window.

The mother-in-law endured the pain and walked to the edge of the table. She reached out to pick up the bowl of black concoction.

He hesitated for a while in his hand, and finally made up his mind to pick it up, and walked towards the second lady's yard.

The old lady looked back, she half-closed her eyes, as if she was a little sleepy.

"Go and keep an eye on it, don't let her mess things up."

The servant girl responded and followed immediately.

The second lady is not a fool, so how could she drink this glistening concoction.

The mother-in-law thought about it, and remembered that the second wife had to drink a bowl of black chicken soup after meals in recent days.

This soup is a doctor's prescription sent by the second wife's elder brother, many herbs are added in it, the smell of medicine is very strong, if this medicine is added in it, she will not be able to find it.

Thinking of this, the woman also walked towards the small kitchen.

Seeing this, the maid at the back hurriedly followed, but after turning a corner, she realized that the mother-in-law was gone.

"It's strange, you obviously saw her walking this way?"

The servant girl screamed in her heart, and hurriedly searched for the figure of the mother-in-law, but there was no clue. She stamped her feet anxiously, wishing she could find her right now.

"The old lady is worried about me and asked you to follow?"

At this moment, the voice of the mother-in-law was heard, and the servant girl heard the sound and looked around, only to see the mother-in-law coming out from behind the tree.

The servant girl's complexion changed, and she immediately scolded: "So what, if you ruin the old lady's important affairs, you will die!"

The mother-in-law narrowed her eyes slightly, and stared at the servant girl with sharp eyes: "The second lady helped you back then, so you don't miss the old love at all?"

The servant girl heard the words, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, she suddenly burst out laughing.

Then she looked at the mother-in-law with contempt, and said, "I didn't ask her to help me.

Besides, if people are not for themselves, heaven and earth will destroy them.

As the daughter of a guilty minister, she can't help the second master. If so, how can she occupy the second master? "

Furthermore, the old madam has already promised her that once the second madam dies, she will be raised to be the second master's roommate, and when she gives birth to a child, she will be raised to be a noble concubine.

As a maid, how can she be compared with a noble concubine.

The mother-in-law's face was livid, and she wanted to say something more, but the maid said again: "Didn't you choose yourself?

Now that you have made a decision, let's die. You are not really stupid enough to think that the old lady just sent me to watch you, right? "

After saying that, the servant girl snorted coldly.

The mother-in-law stood there in a daze. She looked at the rockery and trees in the courtyard, and suddenly felt an inexplicable chill in her heart.

Could it be that there are people sent by the old lady to keep an eye on behind these places?

The mother-in-law didn't dare to continue thinking about it, she swallowed her saliva, and then told the servant girl what she was thinking about.

After finishing speaking, she said again: "Help me hold them back, otherwise the medicine won't be able to be given to Second Madam to drink."

When the servant girl heard this, she was a little reluctant. She didn't like to deal with people in the second lady's courtyard. In her opinion, those people were all wearing a kind mask.

Everyone is a servant, why should they live a relaxed life, but they have to give up everything for money and power.

But what the mother-in-law said is not unreasonable, if I hold them back, then the medicine will have a chance to be poured into the stomach of the second lady.

She pursed her lips, and finally agreed to the mother-in-law's suggestion.

Although it was the first time for the two to cooperate, it would be a lie to say that they were not nervous, but when the servants in the second lady's yard saw them, they didn't think much of it at all.

The maid successfully dragged the servant who was going to the small kitchen, and the mother-in-law took the opportunity to walk in.

After finding the black-bone chicken soup, he first took out a bowl of soup, then put the medicine she brought into it, and then shook the cup gently.

She opened the lid again, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing nothing unusual.

The mother-in-law took the black-bone chicken soup out of the window, washed the dishes, and tiptoed out.

The maid not far away saw the figure of the mother-in-law, she changed the subject and proposed to leave.

The servant didn't think much, and waved to her with a smile, then turned and went to the small kitchen.

The mother-in-law was hiding in the dark, watching the servants take out the black-bone chicken soup mixed with poison, and took it to the second lady's room.

She pursed her lips, her heart pounding nervously.

After a while, there was an exclamation in the room, and the sound of the bowl smashing to the ground.

Then the second lady's personal servant girl ran out with a panicked face, still shouting: "Doctor, quickly invite the doctor..."

Seeing this, the old woman knew that the matter was over, and was about to turn around to leave, but saw the maid sent by the old lady standing behind her at some point.

The mother-in-law was taken aback suddenly, she patted her heaving chest, and there was still surprise in her eyes.

"Why are you here?"

The servant girl stared at the brightly lit house with her cold eyes, and said, "Go and see, if she doesn't die, you will die tonight."

The mother-in-law's face froze, she didn't dare to neglect, she hurriedly walked to the second lady's room, her heart beating wildly.

The servant girl looked at the figure of the old lady leaving in a hurry, showing a triumphant smile, then she lowered her eyes to hide the smug look in her eyes, and turned back to the old lady to report to her.

The mother-in-law walked in, and saw the second lady curled up on her side holding her stomach, her forehead was soaked with sweat, and her face was as pale as paper.

The mother-in-law lowered her eyes to cover her guilty conscience, strode over and asked anxiously, "Ma'am, what's the matter?"

Hearing the sound, the second lady gritted her teeth and opened her eyes to look. Seeing that it was her mother-in-law who usually helped her, she immediately wanted to struggle to sit up, but the severe abdominal pain made her unable to move at all.

She looked at her mother-in-law, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Mommy, hurry up and find a doctor to save my child, I feel that the child will be lost..."

The mother-in-law's body was slightly stiff, she lowered her head so that the second lady would not notice her guilty look.

"Second Madam, don't worry, the doctor will be here soon, and the child will be fine..."

The mother-in-law pretended to be calm and comforted the second lady, but she glanced at the door from time to time. When she saw the doctor coming, she quickly stood up.

"Second Madam, the doctor is here, don't be afraid..."
