Everyone who heard was taken aback.
Not to mention Mrs. Fen and Fen San.
Even the butler who rushed over was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
Mrs. Xia’s two sisters-in-law also paled, standing at the door, not daring to breathe.
This time, Nurse Qian actually obeyed and immediately wrapped Mrs. Xia with a quilt and had her carried out.
Mrs. Fen wanted to cause a scene, but upon seeing Yun Bi striding over with a stern face, she was too scared to make a peep.
The butler hurriedly greeted him, "Master!"
Yun Bi looked at the butler, took a deep breath, "Harmony brings wealth, but I never would have thought that my Yun Residence’s inner courtyard could be in such chaos. My niece audaciously dared to push her pregnant aunt, the mother-in-law actually turned a blind eye, the husband looked on coldly, the sisters-in-law reveled in schadenfreude. Good, very good!"
The people of the Fen Family were immediately scared witless.
The master knew about it, the master actually knew.
What should they do now?
Yun Jinnian slowly came out and bowed to Yun Bi, "Third Uncle!"
"What you did was right, but perhaps we should still call for a doctor. After all, as a young lady..." Yun Bi hesitated.
"Third Uncle, a doctor won’t be able to save her. I must handle it personally. Please take care of things here; I will take her back first!" Saying this, Yun Jinnian bowed again to Yun Bi.
The Nuandong sisters hurriedly followed.
Yun Bi looked at the Fen Family members kneeling on the ground, "Shameful display!"
He turned to Zhou Yuping and instructed, "Detain them. When the time comes for the court session, let the people see how this official will deal with a wicked mother-in-law like Mrs. Fen and these dregs of the Fen Family!"
All members of the Fen Family were locked up in the prison, and not a single person in the residence pleaded for them, with many even feeling terrified.
In order to please Mrs. Fen, they too had been ruthless towards their own daughters-in-law. The master never used to bother with trifles in the back courtyard, but after hearing the master’s words earlier, the Fen Family was probably in for a death sentence...
Han Tianci had just finished his bath, dressed, and was eating a sweet melon when he heard the commotion. Confused, he stepped out and saw Yun Jinnian, and promptly asked, "Sister, what’s happening?"
Yun Jinnian glanced at Han Tianci, "Go back to your room first and wait. I’ll explain in detail later!"
Han Tianci was obedient but also clever; he quickly sent a servant to inquire while he continued to eat his melon, listening intently.
Mrs. Xia was laid on the bed, Shi Jiayu comforting the Nuandong sisters.
Yun Jinnian entered the bedroom, "Have someone call for the midwife, boil some hot water, and prepare clothes for the baby..."
Yun Jinnian gave instructions one by one, then casually fed Mrs. Xia a medicinal pill.
After the pill, Mrs. Xia’s complexion immediately improved somewhat, and then she tightly grabbed Yun Jinnian’s hand, "Miss..."
Yun Jinnian looked at her calmly.
"Miss, I beg you to take charge!" Mrs. Xia squeezed out these words with all her strength.
Yun Jinnian looked at Mrs. Xia, who was deathly pale, sweating profusely, with unceasing bleeding below.
If she hadn’t been there today, Mrs. Xia’s life would have been in danger.
Not just her own, but the child in her womb would have been at risk too.
Yun Jinnian took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Mrs. Xia’s forehead, soothing her, "Don’t lose heart. Think of your children, and the one in your womb. Rest assured, since I’ve intervened today, I will help you through this. You must hold on!"
Although she was capable of treating illness, she had never assisted in childbirth, and she didn’t know how.
Only when the midwife arrived could she use acupuncture to help Mrs. Xia’s child be born.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xia seemed to suddenly see hope and nodded heavily, "This servant thanks the miss; this servant and my mothers are willing to serve as slaves to repay your great kindness!"
