C191 No Clue

"Ma'am, Princess." The wet nurse carried the child up and passed the child to Xiuxiu. The child was still sleeping and her originally fair and tender face was a little yellow.

Lingyue also came over and stared at the child as she walked around.

"Give me a hug." Mu Ruqing stood over and hugged the child. She looked at the wet nurse and asked, "Does he eat milk now?"

"Yes, but he doesn't eat much. Just a few bites and he won't eat anymore. If you feed him again, he will cry." The wet nurse bowed and replied respectfully.

"No wonder he looks so skinny." Mu Ruqing focused her gaze and wanted to see if there were other things hiding in the child's body. She tried a few times but did not see anything.

"Recently, he doesn't eat milk and doesn't cry much. He sleeps all day. But I was worried sick. I invited the doctor to come and see him. I don't see anything, so my father-in-law and mother-in-law also went out with Zijun and didn't come back. Because of this, I didn't even have a person to ask for advice. " It could be seen that Xiuxiu was very worried about the child. Her eyes stared at the child's face and wouldn't move.

" I'm going to wake him up? " Mu Ruqing asked. Could it be that her eyes were not good? Can't see anymore? That shouldn't be the case...

"Alright." Xiuxiu also stood at the side, "He hasn't woken up since he slept last night."

Mu Ruqing continued to touch his cheek and tested that his breathing was still considered to be uniform. She gently shook the child but there was no reaction from the child.

After stopping for a while, Mu Ruqing suddenly did not know how to do it. She looked at the child in a daze for a while and looked at Xiuxiu in a difficult manner.

Xiuxiu understood what Mu Ruqing meant and the wet nurse also knew what Mu Ruqing meant. She recommended herself, "Princess, let the old woman come. This old woman has been taking care of the child for the rest of her life."

"Okay, sorry to trouble the wet nurse." Once Mu Ruqing carried the child, she would not give up.

The wet nurse carried the child vertically and patted the child's back. She muttered something and her voice was too soft. Lingyue, who was close to her, could only vaguely hear... "Quickly get up..." A few words.

"Mmm ~ Mmm ~ ~"

Not long after, he heard the child's small mouth groan. The wet nurse flattened the child and made an expression to tease him. Only then did the child's face rise again, "Haha..."

This was laughter that only children had. The wet nurse carried the child closer to the two of them. The child's large black eyes rolled back and forth in his eyes, carrying a pure gaze.

When she saw Xiuxiu, her mouth was wide open and her pink teeth were exposed. Her eyes were bent and Xiuxiu's eyes were full of love. That was an expression that only a mother would have when looking at a child.

Mu Ruqing stared at the child's eyes without blinking and did not discover anything. She walked a few more steps. The child's little hand was raised in the air. His little finger was chubby like a lotus root.

Suddenly wanting to touch the child's finger, Mu Ruqing stretched out a finger and was tightly held in the child's palm. The child's hand could only hold one finger of Mu Ruqing.

The scene in front of Mu Ruqing suddenly changed. There was no fixed color and no fixed object. It was as if everything was floating randomly.

"Yi ya ya."

The child's cute cry pulled Mu Ruqing back. She clearly did not see anything, but she felt like she saw everything again.

She turned her head and her eyes met the child's black eyeballs. Mu Ruqing looked at the reflection of herself in his eyes and entered into a trance. Why did she feel more and more like she did not look like him?

Mu Ruqing thought that she was dizzy. She shook her head and fixed her eyes. The reflection in the child's eyes disappeared.

In its place was a weak back figure wearing ordinary clothes with two sideburns. One look and one could tell that it was a 12-13 year old child.

Slowly, her head tilted a little but before Mu Ruqing could see clearly, it disappeared. In the blink of an eye, it was her own shadow again. She looked at Xiuxiu, "Did you see it?"

"What?" Xiuxiu did not understand and asked back.

"Nothing. Maybe I am seeing things." Mu Ruqing pulled out her fingers. Just now Xiuxiu was also seriously looking at the child and she did not see it. The others did not need to ask.

"Princess, why is Little Young Master..." Lingyue stood behind Mu Ruqing and her voice was a little soft.

"What?" Mu Ruqing tilted her head slightly. Why did she say half of it?

"It just looks weird and doesn't seem to have any spirit." Lingyue was unable to explain and could only roughly say her thoughts.

When Lingyue said this, it reminded Mu Ruqing of something. It seemed that from the moment she was at the door just now, it gave her this kind of feeling.

Now that he was looking at the child, he did not have the energy to laugh and no one was teasing him. He was about to fall asleep again.

"Milk mom, Little Young Master is tired. You can carry him down first." Xiuxiu saw that the child's eyes were half open and half asleep and her heart ached.

"Yes." The wet nurse slightly moved her body. Before she even walked to the door, the child fell into a deep sleep.

"Has anything bad happened in Faang mansion recently?" Mu Ruqing sized up servant girl who was standing behind Xiuxiu but did not say anything.

"No." Xiuxiu replied without thinking.

"Is there a twelve-year-old servant girl in Faang mansion?" Mu Ruqing thought of the back view she saw in the child's eyes. She did not think that she saw wrongly. Perhaps it was that back figure that was causing trouble.

"There are a few."

"Send them over to me to take a look."

"Hurry up and do as the Princess ordered." Xiuxiu looked at servant girl who was giving orders behind her. servant girl did not raise her head and did not reply. She only bowed her body and retreated.

In just a short while, she brought seven or eight little girls and stood in the courtyard outside the hall.

Mu Ruqing and Xiuxiu walked out.

"Greetings Madam, Princess." Little servant girl bowed together and her voice was a little sharp.

"All of you turn around with your backs to me." Mu Ruqing ordered.

Little servant girl saw that Xiuxiu did not object and obediently turned around. They were tall, short, fat and thin and Mu Ruqing carefully looked at them a few times. She did not see anything similar to what she saw just now and was a little disappointed. "Other than these few, are there any more?"

"No. They are all sons and daughters of the Public House. " Xiuxiu shook her head and gave eldest servant girl another look before eldest servant girl took little servant girl away.

"Then did such a big child just pass away?"

"No." Xiuxiu was also puzzled, "Why do you keep asking the little girl?"

"You might not believe me if I tell you. Just now, I saw a back view in your child's eyes. It was a twelve-year-old child."

"I believe you. I've already experienced all those things. How could I not believe you?"

"Is there really no more?"

"Yes. No more."

This time Mu Ruqing was confused and had no clue. She thought that she could start from the back of a child, but there was no such little servant girl in Faang mansion.

" The shadow I saw was not a little girl, but an adult. Looking at the shadow of her hair in a bun, it was a woman."

"Have you ever thought that it was someone from your mansion who tried to scare you?" Mu Ruqing wanted to see it in every direction.

"How could that be? Madam is very good to us. Everyone likes Madam very much." eldest servant girl came back and spoke on Xiuxiu's behalf. Her voice was low, hoarse, and somewhat coarse.

Mu Ruqing swept a glance at her and servant girl bowed," Please forgive the wangfei. It was this servant who was rash. "

"That means that there is no one who has a grudge with your wife." Mu Ruqing waved her hand and did not mind and asked another question.

"Yes." servant girl hurriedly nodded her head.

This put Mu Ruqing in a difficult position. Where should she start investigating from?
