Tang Zhuyun was somewhat surprised.
In other words, neither Yuan Fang nor Yuan Han, the two brothers, knew that Yuan Yi had a daughter?
That's definitely not right.
"Oh," she said, suddenly realizing, "Perhaps it was adopted."
It was only after seeing Yuan Yi's deep affection for Doudou that she subconsciously felt that Dou Dou was Yuan Yi's biological daughter.
Moreover, Yuan Yi repeatedly stated that it was her biological child.
Actually, upon closer reflection, that might not be the case.
Just like how she always felt about Yanran, as if she were her own daughter, didn't she?
"That should be it," Tang Zhuyun added.
"Why do you say that?" The Prince of Jin became somewhat curious.
"Because of that child," Tang Zhuyun said, "She has a hearing impairment. I suspect she suffers from a very rare form of anemia..."
The Prince of Jin clearly did not understand.
These diseases are more likely to occur in couples who are closely related.
That probability is many, many times higher than that of a normal person.
"Perhaps," the Prince of Jin said after hearing her explanation, "Yuan Yi was born to her cousin."
Tang Zhuyun said, "If they were her cousins, would they need to do this? They would definitely be married by now."
The Prince of Jin nodded. "You're right."
He didn't want to waste his time here; what did other people's business have to do with them?
Tang Zhuyun is kind-hearted, and she especially cannot bear to see the elderly, weak, women and children suffer. She will definitely help if she can.
However, Tang Zhuyun needed his help to make a decision.
She let out a long sigh.
Prince of Jin teased her deliberately, "What did Ren Yingying say to you just now?"
"Um?"
"Why do I vaguely hear people putting on and taking off clothes?" the Prince of Jin joked.
Tang Zhuyun blushed instantly, inwardly cursing Ren Yingying to the point of being a monster.
"Stop fooling around, we're talking about serious matters!" Tang Zhuyun glared at him. "I want to talk to you about Doudou, Yuan Yi's daughter's illness..."
I wouldn't understand even if you told me.
"You don't need to understand. It's just," Tang Zhuyun said carefully, "That I'm not sure what to do right now... I can help with Doudou's condition, but I don't know how much."
She suspected it was Fanconi anemia, a rare disease.
Doudou's condition is very bad; she needs a blood transfusion.
Ren Yingying has blood type test strips and all the necessary items for blood drawing and transfusion, but the problem is... it's quite shocking.
Before attempting to save the child, we must first determine whether Yuan Yi and the Prince Who Guards the South's Residence behind her are reliable.
She could turn around and report him, calling herself a demon or monster. Where would she go to cry then?
But whether or not to save her, and considering she was just a child, Tang Zhuyun was also struggling with this decision.
Therefore, only the Prince of Jin could help make this difficult decision.
--This is probably the meaning of the other half's existence.
It provides emotional support and, in crucial moments, provides someone to consult with.
The Prince of Jin said, "I will go and ask Yuan Fang what exactly happened."
However, the Prince Who Guards the South's Residence is now on his side, that much is undeniable.
Tang Zhuyun agreed, but in her heart she was already thinking of a treatment plan for Doudou.
"I'll go now." Prince of Jin stood up. "Wait for my news."
"Good."
Unexpectedly, Prince of Jin's trip resulted in him bringing back Prince Who Guards the South, Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang explained to Tang Zhuyun in person that Doudou was the daughter of Yuan Yi's maid, who had been adopted by Yuan Yi and treated as her own daughter, and asked Tang Zhuyun to help him.
Tang Zhuyun knew that this must be the attitude of the Prince of Jin.
She humbly agreed, saying she would do her best.
After seeing Yuan Fang, Yanran arrived.
She was incredibly busy that day!
After following Yuan Yi back to her home, she didn't appear; she was keeping an eye on Yuan Yi.
"Mother, the Prince Who Guards the South is lying."
Tang Zhuyun:???
"I heard it with my own ears: Yuan Yi cried and said that Doudou was a piece of her own flesh and blood, how could she not feel pain? She wished she could suffer in her place."
Tang Zhuyun: "Really?"
Did Yuan Yi say something wrong because she was emotional?
When she was furious with Yanran, didn't she always say, "How could I have given birth to such a daughter?"
"Mother, how can that be the same? She's talking about flesh and blood from her own body," Yanran said. "Believe me, I'm certain that it's her biological daughter!"
Tang Zhuyun immediately made a connection to Doudou's biological father...
"If Doudou weren't so unattractive," Ren Yingying said the next day, "I'd even suspect your man had fathered a child in Yunnan... He's the only one who could have given birth so easily."
Tang Zhuyun: "... Be serious, I'm telling you about the illness!"
Ren Yingying rested her chin on her hand and said, "Whatever you say goes! I'm willing to do ear surgery, but given her current anemia, I don't dare to... Let's stabilize her condition first."
"Well, I've only heard of this disease before, but I've never treated one, so I'm not really sure. Let's give it a try, after all, it's a life at stake."
There are no omnipotent gods, only doctors who do their best.
"I'll listen to you." Ren Yingying blindly admired Tang Zhuyun's professional skills.
Basically, she's just a backup plan, responsible for logistical support.
"Then I'll invite Yuan Yi over to clarify things."
"That's good enough, it's hard to say for sure."
Yuan Yi was soon invited over.
After hearing Tang Zhuyun's simple explanation, she was shocked. "This... this means giving Doudou someone else's blood?"
"Yes," Tang Zhuyun said, "But it's not a matter of taking a life. If the person whose blood was drawn rests for a few days and eats well, they can recover."
Anyway, the Prince Who Guards the South's Residence has no shortage of money or people, but it must find reliable people.
"Is anyone's blood okay? Even someone unrelated is fine? Please take mine, I'm her biological mother..."
Tang Zhuyun and Ren Yingying looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although Yanran was able to glimpse the truth, no one expected that Yuan Yi would so directly admit it herself.
Perhaps because their expressions were too shocked, Yuan Yi gave a wry smile.
Today, she had tidied herself up simply, and her appearance was much better than yesterday, revealing the elegance of a well-bred young lady.
"I know that Her Highness the Princess and the Crown Princess are as close as sisters, so I won't hide anything from the Crown Princess..."
"Only my wet nurse and two personal maids know the truth about this... Doudou is my biological daughter."
In other words, neither Yuan Fang nor Yuan Han, the two brothers, knew about it.
Ren Yingying blurted out, "How could that be? Don't you all live under the same roof?"
The main problem is, you can't hide a pregnancy forever!
Also, she wanted to say, "Prince of Jin, oh Prince of Jin, peach blossoms are so scarce!"
I thought someone had come who was genuinely infatuated, but it turns out they were probably using him as a cover while secretly having a baby.
Moreover, the Prince of Jin was also beaten by her brother.
In conclusion, what a pitiful prince!
Tang Zhuyun cleared her throat and said, "Whether you're my biological child or not, since I promised to help, I will do my best."
Yuan Yi had to do was cooperate!
