Chapter 151: The Midwife... Is a Girl? (Part 1)
"Weren’t you hoping I’d die? But don’t worry, even if I die, someone will come to collect the debt!" Han Jing would not believe that Su Xingyan had any good intentions.
But it didn’t matter. She didn’t care what kind of intentions he had. As long as she saw Su Xingyan suffer, she would be happy!
She never liked to hold grudges, but she was petty and loved to remember grievances.
From the first day Su Xingyan offended her, he could never dream of getting a good impression from her again.
"You... you irrational woman!" Su Xingyan suddenly dropped the curtain of the carriage and turned to leave!
He was clearly worried about her. Why was it when she spoke, it seemed like he had ill intentions!
However, Su Xingyan also felt he was crazy. Why exactly was he worried about her? He wished she was dead!
Just as Han Jing said, the assassination had no real meaning, and it was completely quashed in less than an hour. Only when Su Yaogeng came personally to see that Han Jing was okay did he leave relieved. However, many of the ladies were quite frightened, and even the Emperor was extremely angry at such an event. Thus, the original plan to stop and rest at the Wu hour was mercilessly delayed.
Han Jing looked at the dry pastries and felt a bit of a lack of appetite.
On the rest of the journey back to the Capital City, there were no further surprises, and they returned smoothly.
Han Jing rested at the residence for a day and thought about how Yun Feng had mentioned taking her pulse after returning to the Capital City. After thinking it over, Han Jing decided to find him first, to prevent Su Yaogeng from insisting again all day that she see a doctor.
The winter in Hanjing City wasn’t particularly cold. It was afternoon, and Han Jing decided to take Mu Jin with her and walk to Baihua Garden, taking the opportunity for a stroll in the streets.
It seemed that ever since she awoke in this world, she hadn’t had the time to truly see what this place was like.
Han Jing and Mu Jin wandered leisurely towards Baihua Garden. On the way, people who recognized her couldn’t help but whisper, and of course, Han Jing could hear them, but she didn’t mind. She was long accustomed to being the center of attention, whether the looks were friendly or hateful.
So even hearing people discuss her, she had nothing to pay attention to.
As she walked, passing in front of a mansion, she saw a commotion in the distance as a group of people seemed to be tearing at something. Han Jing didn’t pay much attention at first, but just as she passed, a clear voice called her name: "Han Jing—Han Jing!"
Han Jing looked towards the voice and saw a girl with delicate eyebrows and eyes, dressed simply and neatly. However, she was in a bit of a mess, being held by two servants who seemed to be shouting about taking her to the authorities!
And the look in the girl’s eyes as she looked at Han Jing was full of joy, surprise, and disbelief!
Han Jing turned her head, and when the girl saw the birthmark on her face, she paused in mild shock, seemingly confused and a bit disappointed.
She then struggled again, pulling against the servants holding her: "Let me go! It was you who invited me to help your mistress give birth! If you drive me out now, she’s doomed! And you dare to take me to the authorities? Are you out of your mind?!"
An older nanny pointed at the girl and shouted: "Ridiculous! We were deceived to invite a girl like you to help our mistress. What do you intend to do? You actually plan to use a knife on our mistress! If we don’t take you to the authorities, who should we take? Hurry, hurry! Take her to the government office!"
