“No way, I paid for it.” Mother Zhou stood up, “I’ll go find them. How dare they sell me fake medicine?”
“Forget about it, Mother Zhou. This kind of thing is not something to be proud of. It’s not good to make a fuss.” Jiang Ning stopped her, “Is there any medicine left?”
“Yes, there’s still a bag left.”
“Take a little bit of the crushed one and have the doctor in the mansion look at it and see what kind of medicine it is.” Jiang Ning said.
“This is a good idea. I’ll go right away.”
Mother Zhou quickly left.
It didn’t take long before she came back with a somber face.
Lin Zizi asked, “How did it go?”
Mother Zhou said, “The doctor in the mansion looked at the medicine and said it’s a good prescription for nourishing the energy and blood.”
“It’s not an abortifacient?”
“No, not at all.” Mother Zhou cried out in anger, “This bastard! He took my money and didn’t do the job. I’m going to wreck their pharmacy!”
Jiang Ning was deep in thought.
From the start till now, every doctor she came across was very peculiar.
Including the only young doctor who initially diagnosed her pregnancy, he later changed his statement outright.
If all those were her illusions, then the examination by the palace nanny and the medicine grabbed by Mother Zhou today couldn’t possibly be false. All these pointed to the presence of a shadowy hand behind the scenes, manipulating everything.
Who could have such a powerful influence?
Jiang Ning wasn’t sure.
But what she is certain of is that the person must know she is pregnant and who the child’s father is.
Not only does that person know everything, they are also trying their best to prevent others from finding out about her pregnancy and have surprisingly helped her progress in the selection process.
Could it be the Prince of Yu?
But looking at the Prince of Yu’s disdainful and annoyed attitude towards her, it didn’t seem likely.
Jiang Ning shook her head, feeling somewhat puzzled.
Was she fated to enter the mansion of the Prince of Yu while being pregnant?
The feeling of being manipulated was simply terrible.
Jiang Ning started feeling a bit agitated.
Alright then, she would marry while pregnant to see how long the person behind the scenes could cover up for her!
The most amazing thing was that after drinking the “tonic” Mother Zhou brought, Jiang Ning’s pregnancy symptoms improved a lot. The constant feeling of dizziness and nausea faded.
Before Jiang Ning could rejoice, the palace sent more gifts, wedding clothes, jewelries, etc.
They also sent two nannies and four palace maids to teach her the rules and regulations.
But with Jiang Ning’s disability, the nannies couldn’t force her to do anything. As she idled the days away, time passed and the day of her marriage came quickly.
Having been pregnant for three months, her belly wasn’t very noticeable. Her voluminous wedding dress covered it well.
Early in the morning, Jiang Ning was made to get up and get dressed. After donning the cumbersome, red wedding dress and the heavy gold phoenix coronet, she could hardly lift her neck.
Jiang Yuan and Jiang Yan were both there, looking at her in opulent attire, with different expressions.
Jiang Yuan was so jealous that she got conjunctivitis.
It was real conjunctivitis. Her eyes were completely red, and her fingers were wrapped in thread.
“Why…why…” She mumbled incessantly, “A cripple…why does she get to be the Princess Consort of Yu…This is a princess consort, the main consort!”
No one paid her any attention.
On the other hand, Jiang Yan was genuinely happy for her and even gifted her a present.
Though it wasn’t expensive, it was sincere.
The dowry prepared for her by the Jiang Family was of course not meagre.
Lin Zizi went even further by bringing all her dowry from her natal home for Jiang Ning.
She only had this one daughter. Much as she was distressed about her getting married right after finding her, she poured her all into it.
At that moment, two maids carried a large basket over and asked Jiang Ning, “Miss, if you don’t want the things in this box, shall we throw it away?”
Jiang Ning took a glance and suddenly thought of Old Man Li’s identity.
Given Old Man Li’s status, would the “trash” he gave her really be trash?
