”Mother, what should we do now?” When even Shiya saw how the Xiao Clan was so furious and dejected, she too began to cry. She sighed in her heart as she wondered why the heavens always went against her.

”Dong mama, go to the Xiao Estate and ask my eldest sister-in-law to send a doctor Lin over. I've known Doctor Lin since I was young, so I can trust him to come and take my pulse.” If the steward asks where you're going, you should go and buy rouge for the third miss. When you come back, remember to bring a box of rouge back. Madam Xiao instructed Dong mama.

”Yes, ma'am, I'll go now.”

After receiving Lady Xiao's order, Dong mama went to the housekeeper to report for leave. After going for half a day, she returned. Doctor Lin followed her to Clear Spring Academy an hour later.

The result of her diagnosis was exactly as Dong mama had said — she wasn't pregnant.

This time, the Xiao family's last remaining hope was shattered. She was indeed not pregnant, but the words had already been said.

What should he do now?

Admitting to the madame that she had made a mistake and becoming the laughingstock of the crowd, returning Guanyin's jade pendant, she could only watch as Rongxue's stomach expanded day by day?

No, even if he couldn't!

Madam Xiao tightly gripped the handkerchief in her hand. Her face became paler as she pondered on what she should do in the future.

She suddenly stood up and walked into the room. She took out a box of silver and handed it over to Doctor Lin, saying, ”Doctor Lin, when I was young, you were the one who treated me. From then on, I'll have to trouble you to come and see the child in my womb.”

He took two steps back and pushed the silver back, saying, ”Madam, this … this absolutely cannot happen. This is not a small household, this is the Prime Minister's Estate. If we were to be discovered, we would lose our heads.”

”Don't worry, as long as you listen to me, I promise I won't be caught!” ”Now, you are the only one who can help me. If you are unwilling to help me, I'm afraid that my life in the Prime Minister's Estate will be difficult.”

”But …” Dr. Lin still hesitated.

”Doctor Lin, my mother is at a dead end, so she came up with this idea. You just have to help her and tell the world that my mother is pregnant. In the future, you will be the one to check on her every month.”

”I still have half a year. Aren't you afraid of some flaws?” Also, on the day of birth, what should we do if we don't have a child? ” Dr. Lin said.

”That's right, my lady. If the fake pregnancy is exposed, the prime minister and the madame will definitely be furious. I'm afraid that you and the third miss won't be able to protect your position when the time comes.” On the side, Dong mama was also talking about her worries.

However, the Xiao Clan felt as if they were possessed and refused to listen to anyone's advice. She only knew that she shouldn't let anyone know that she was pregnant. She bit her lower lip and said:

”Then we can only find a time and pretend that it secretly flowed away. ”Doctor Lin, right now, I can only ask for your help.” The Xiao Clan looked at Doctor Lin with earnest eyes as they pleaded.

Dr. Lin finally agreed, gritting her teeth. ”Alright, then I'll first prescribe two pieces of baby protection medicine for Madam. It's just that Madam has to settle the matter of the sliding tire as soon as possible. Otherwise, it'll get more and more troublesome as time passes.”

”Good!” ”Don't worry, I'll be troubling you. This matter must be kept a secret.” When the Xiao family saw Doctor Lin's response, they finally let out a sigh of relief.
