After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

Chapter 143 Aunt Xu

Although Xu Qinghe might be her long-lost biological son, he is now an adult in his thirties. The old princess now puts all her loving heart on her well-behaved and sensible granddaughter.

Yuxiu casually pulled a small bag from her back, which she had taken out from the space when she just came in. It contained some delicious food that she had picked for her grandmother.

There are big red apples, soft and sweet egg cakes, and a big bag of toffee and fruit candies without the packaging...

"Grandma, please eat these first. I'll give you some more after you finish them."

Yuxiu said this and took out a can of milk powder in a transparent glass bottle. This was a bottle she specially made in the system mall. It was originally used to hold milk powder for pregnant women like Cui. Thinking that the old princess also needed nutritional supplements on a daily basis, she put some milk powder for middle-aged and elderly people in it and brought it to her.

"My Xiuxiu is still lovable..."

The old princess watched as Yuxiu took out so many wonderful things from the bag that she had never seen before in just a short while. She was very moved and took her hand. The two of them sat at the table and talked while eating.

"Xiu Xiu, grandma recalled many things from the past today, but I don't know who to talk to. Please help me analyze what went wrong."

The old princess looked somewhat painful when she thought of what happened in the past.

Ever since she married into Prince Ning's Mansion, the people in the mansion treated her very well, especially the old Prince Ning's sister Xu Muyun, who was her best friend and with whom she could talk about anything.

With such a relationship, even if she didn't understand something in the mansion, Xu Muyun would be there to give her advice in time, so even though there was several years difference in age between them, their relationship became closer and closer.

In addition, after the old princess came into the family, she gave birth to a daughter and two sons in succession, firmly securing her position as Princess Ning, so she was also the woman with the smoothest life among the young ladies of the same age.

Until later when she became pregnant again, news came from the border that old Prince Ning was seriously injured and might not survive.

The couple had a very good relationship. After hearing the news, she insisted on going to the border to see King Ning for the last time despite being pregnant.

The Xu family members were immediately extremely anxious and didn't know what to do. At that moment, someone from the palace came and said that the emperor had sent the imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau to the border to treat old Prince Ning. The old princess decided to take everyone with him.

Seeing that she was determined to go, her sister-in-law Xu Muyun made a bold decision and resolutely accompanied her to the border, which moved her deeply.

Fortunately, they arrived in time, and the old King Ning was finally saved by the imperial physician's superb medical skills. Although his body was seriously injured, he at least kept his life. He only needed to be nursed slowly, and he was considered to have survived.

The old princess was a pregnant woman and she certainly could not stay at the chaotic border any longer, so after living there for more than a month, the group set out on the journey back to Beijing.

However, the bumpy ride back and forth eventually caused the old princess to have a miscarriage. One morning when she started on the journey, her stomach began to feel uncomfortable. Thinking that she was in the wilderness, she did not say anything until the pain became unbearable, then she asked someone to call the imperial physician over.

However, the imperial physician who followed them this time was mainly here to treat old Prince Ning's injuries, so he was not very proficient in women's diseases. He just said based on the pulse that the child would be born early. Thinking of the temple where they had stayed when they came here, the group headed towards the temple again.

But unfortunately, it was the annual temple fair at that time, and the mountain where the temple was located was packed with people.

Fortunately, the people in the temple still remembered them and after hearing about their situation, they not only readily agreed to let them stay there, but also went to find a midwife nearby.

Although the old princess had given birth to three children, this birth was extremely difficult. Even after drinking a large bowl of labor-inducing medicine, the baby was still not born. In the end, she heard the midwife's voice in a daze, asking whether to save the adult or the youngest.

At that time, she was thinking that she must protect the baby. This was the child she had carried with great difficulty. The child had not yet seen the beauty of this world, had not yet met his parents, and had not met his brothers and sisters. How could he just disappear like this?

But she was already in a semi-coma, and all she could hear was Nanny Lin's screaming:

"You must protect both the big and the small. As long as the mother and the child are safe, I will reward you with one thousand taels of silver!"

Afterwards she knew nothing. When she woke up again, Nanny Lin was wiping the blood off her body, and Xu Muyun was holding a small swaddling baby, rocking it gently.

She still remembered that when Xu Muyun saw her open her eyes, he quickly smiled and took the swaddling clothes over to her, inside of which was a red and wrinkled baby.

Maybe because of premature birth, the child was very thin, and even with his eyes closed, it was hard to tell who he looked like. However, the big black mole at the corner of his mouth made her feel inexplicably disgusted.

In the past two days, she has been thinking about what happened that year over and over again, and feels that the child was most likely replaced during the time she was unconscious.

If you really count them, there are only two people who have the best chance of replacing the child. One is Nanny Lin who has served her for most of her life, and the other is her best friend and sister-in-law Xu Muyun.

Thinking of a certain possibility, the old princess was actually very painful in her heart.

You have to know that Nanny Lin has been by her side all these years, and has risked her life to protect her many times.

The two of them can be said to be closer than sisters. Even if she doubts herself, she cannot doubt Nanny Lin.

Then it can only be Yangguang Xu Muyun, but the child she gave birth to is Xu Muyun’s nephew. What is her motive for doing this?

During the day, the old princess specifically asked Nanny Lin about what happened after she fainted after giving birth. She said that the situation was very dangerous that day. She was bleeding heavily and was about to die. There was no other way but to ask the imperial physician to come and give her acupuncture to stop the bleeding. Nanny Lin then watched over her without blinking an eye.

In such a busy time, they had no time to take care of the newly born Third Young Master, so Xu Muyun took the child out. After her condition stabilized, she was brought back.

This was not the first time the old princess had asked this question, and it was not the first time Nanny Lin had answered it. It all seemed reasonable, so even though she thought about it again and again, she was not sure what was going on.

Yuxiu listened quietly to the old princess' story and an idea came to her mind.

"Grandmother, since you believe that Nanny Lin is innocent, why don't you check on my aunt to see if you can find any clues."

Since Xu Muyun is the biological sister of the old Prince Ning, Yuxiu should naturally call her aunt.
