Chapter 122 - Safflower was Found in the Pillow (2/2)

“Is there something wrong with the incenses?” Mo Yufeng stepped forward, reached the doctor, pulled his hand and dragged him up directly. They got close to the incenses and he asked desperately.

“The ..” The doctor was about to speak but said nothing. He closed his eyes, lifted his nose and sniffed, looking uneasy.

“What on earth was wrong? Tell me directly.” Mo Yufeng was so anxious that he jerked the doctor with his hand, making the doctor widen his eyes and called out in pain.

“Please tell me immediately.”

“It, it has the smell of musk. Though it was very light, there must be musk in it.” The seemed to feel much pain and answered quickly.

Everyone felt shocked at these words. Mo Xuemin was the first one to make a move, “Nonsense, it was obviously the incenses third miss used to calm the nerves and there couldn’t be musk in it. The third miss was in poor health and have been using incenses to calm her nerves, and everyone knows that.”

“I didn’t speak nonsense. It couldn’t be the incenses to calm the nerves, and the main ingredient in it was a husk. A girl who hasn’t been married couldn’t use such incenses to calm the nerves. If surrounded by it for too long, it may even hurt her health.” Hearing someone doubt his expertise, he answered with certainty immediately.

A girl from a rich family who wasn’t married couldn’t have the medicine like musk in hand, which would result in abortion, unless she did it on purpose. In additon, she couldn’t have misused it because Mo Xuetong understood medical skills …

There was still light fragrance in the air which had been thought to be refres.h.i.+ng. But when knowing there was musk in it, everyone stepped backward. Mo Xueqiong even took out her handkerchief, covered her mouth and nose with it and stepped back to the door to watch them.

“Third miss, you couldn’t have really done it! Mo Xueqiong said, making a big fuss.

That girl was so mean that she was willing to see everyone in the family get into trouble. Therefore, she was ready to see Mo Xuetong trapped in the scheme and get her more trouble!

“Mo Xuetong, what did you do?” Mo Yufeng thought for a minute and then shouted furiously. He glared at Mo Xuetong angrily and walked towards her. Mo Ye saw the situation was not good, so he stepped ahead and blocked Mo Xuetong.

Mo Xuetong’s eyes turned cold and thought it finally came!

This incident finally had led to her. That doctor who had caused such a great disaster observed the scene quietly with cold eyes. Under such a circ.u.mstance, the doctor could still sit there calmly and feel the pulse for Auntie Fang, which proved that he couldn’t be an average doctor.

In this case, he needn’t have to act like that and say everything out so clearly!

“No, it couldn’t belong to third miss. She is too kind to do such an evil thing.” Mo Xuemin came to herself from disbelief too, walked up to hold Mo Yufeng’s hand and said desperately. Then she turned around with tears in her eyes and said to Mo Xuetong, “Third miss, you can explain, right? You should explain to dad, and we’ll believe you.”

Giving an explanation? Under this circ.u.mstance, it could be called as upon valid evidence. The more she explained, the more they would be suspicious of her. Mo Xuemin played the role of a good sister successfully and tried to help her out in such a case. Others would only see her as a kind and lenient elder sister, and she would be the vicious younger sister in people’s eyes. It would be quite interesting to compare them together.

“What to explain? First miss, Auntie Fang had never been to my room before. Even if I tried to frame her up, how would I know she would come?” Mo Xuetong said coldly with her surprised and innocent expression. Ignorance filled her big clear eyes.

She looked as if she hadn’t understood what had happened.

But that actually made sense!

Everyone in Mo Manor knew that Auntie Fang was on bad terms with third miss. Third miss had never been to Lihua Garden which belonged to Auntie Fang, while Auntie Fang had never been to Qingwei Garden which belonged to third miss, which was known to everyone in the manor. Even though Mo Xuetong wanted to frame Auntie Fang, how could she know Auntie Fang would definitely get into her Qingwei Garden?

“Third miss, our lady didn’t have to rest in your garden at first, but you sent Mo Lan to come by and told the lady to have a rest there… And then, she felt uncomfortable. I don’t know how third miss did it, but our lady was innocent. That baby… That is old sir’s little son… The poor baby!” Guihua cried and continued. Then, she kowtowed in Auntie Fang’s direction and crawled toward her.

However, Guihua’s eyes were fixed on Mo Huawen’s facial expressions. When she talked about the unborn child, there were blue veins all over old sir’s face. It seemed that old sir cared much about the baby in Auntie Fang’s belly, so she mentioned the unborn child even more often. She reached to hold Auntie Fang’s hand while crying, but her hand didn’t catch anything and finally landed on Auntie Fang’s back cus.h.i.+on and pushed away the cus.h.i.+on!

“What’s that?” The keen Mo Xueqiong saw it first, pointed at a strange thing under the cus.h.i.+on and asked.

“Safflower!” The doctor was right by the side, quickly picked up the gra.s.s-shaped plant, which was an orange-red flower with a slender stem and yellow stamen. There was a stigma in the middle of it with light fragrance which was neither too strong nor too weak. It couldn’t be recognized if they did not discover it.

“If safflower and musk are used together, it’ll cause instant abortion. No wonder the lady had…” The doctor looked around and said. After finis.h.i.+ng his words, he just looked at Mo Xuetong, shook his head and sighed. But he didn’t say anything and continued to feel the pulse for Auntie Fang as if he didn’t want to meddle with others’ family affair.

However, everyone there knew what he meant.
