Chapter 2597: Excessive Bleeding
Yuan Xiang looked around cautiously, then whispered, “I heard that the eldest miss had excessive bleeding yesterday.”
“Excessive bleeding? Was she injured?” Ning Shu tried not to think about the possibility of a miscarriage, but her mind immediately jumped to it when she heard about excessive bleeding.
“Yesterday, buckets of blood were carried out from her room,” Yuan Xiang continued. “I heard it from Xiao Cui.”
Buckets of blood? What was going on?
Yuan Xiang said in an even quieter voice, “They said the eldest miss had a problem with her monthly cycle and called for a doctor in the middle of the night. The young miss was in so much pain that she was rolling in bed.”
Dysmenorrhea?
Dysmenorrhea could get this severe?
“Do you know what the doctor said?”
Yuan Xiang shook her head. “I don’t know.”
Issues with the period were a huge matter to women, especially since women naturally had more fragile bodies, so the slightest carelessness could greatly affect their health.
“Go ask around a bit more, but be careful and stay safe.” Ning Shu decided to investigate further and gave Yuan Xiang some silver pieces to gather more information.
Yuan Xiang nodded.
Ning Shu decided that once nice all, she would sneak over the wall to find out what had happened.
Yuan Xiang left for a good while, and when she finally returned, she curtsied to Ning Shu and said, “Miss, it was so hard for me to find this out!”
“What happened?” Ning Shu put down her embroidery and asked.
Yuan Xiang took a deep breath and said, “I heard that the miss ate something cold during her period, which caused her stomach to ache.”
During a woman’s menstrual period, her body is at its weakest, making it essential to avoid eating cold or spicy foods.
Lu Mingxuan, being a carefully raised delicate flower, even had an old nanny to look after her, so there was no way she didn’t know about this.
“Moreover, the doctor said that she ate something extremely cold, which caused womb coldness. Her periods would be more painful now, and if she is not well taken care of, it will even be difficult for her to conceive in the future,” Yuan Xiang finished. “Miss, say, do you think this is true?”
Ning Shu narrowed her eyes and recalled when Lu Junning had asked her about the medicine she had bought.
It had to be something that Lu Junning had given to Lu Mingxuan.
“It must be false. Even if you hear rumors, you shouldn’t spread them,” Ning Shu said to Yuan Xiang in an offhanded manner, “And don’t talk about this to anyone else.”
“Understood.”
Ning Shu picked up her embroidery and began to stitch.
The greatest value of a woman was to bear children. If a woman could not bear children, she would not have much value.
Womb coldness was one of the most taboo illnesses for women since it made it difficult to conceive and even if they did conceive, miscarriage was common.
The moment Lu Junning attacked, she aimed straight toward Lu Mingxuan’s belly.
It was like she was the director of family planning.
If Lu Mingxuan could not even have children, then how could she climb up?
At home, a woman depended on her father; after marriage, she depended on her husband, and after her husband’s death, she depended on her son. Children were a woman’s reliance.
Lu Mingxuan was in quite a terrible position now.
This fight was a bit terrifying.
As Ning Shu was embroidering, Mistress Yun’s chief maid, Lu Zhen, came over.
Lu Zhen first curtsied towards Ning Shu, then said in a somewhat arrogant tone, “Third Miss, Madam wishes to see you.”
Ning Shu asked, “Is there something wrong?”
Lu Zhen replied, “You’ll find out when you arrive.”
Putting down her embroidery, Ning Shu followed Lu Zhen towards the main courtyard, wondering if she had somehow been dragged into some trouble.
