Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2089 - 2097: Unveiling the Truth (Part 3)

Cai Wei pondered for a moment and used her thought to communicate with the Old Turtle, saying, "Great Immortal Turtle, please help me see what is wrong with this child. How come he has so many bumps just after being born?"

The Great Immortal Turtle slowly opened his eyes and said in surprise, "Oh my, this is terrible! Whose child is this? How did he come with syphilis from birth?"

"Syphilis?"

Cai Wei nearly cried out: "Are you sure you didn’t see it wrong?"

The Great Immortal Turtle said unhurriedly, "Master, are you doubting my medical skills?"

Of course, Cai Wei wouldn’t doubt the medical skills of the Great Immortal Turtle. The reason she asked was out of sheer astonishment. This child is so young, it couldn’t have contracted such a filthy disease by itself; it must have been transmitted from its mother.

Damn Dong Wan’er, pretending to be pure like a white lotus, and yet so filthy in private. She could be certain that her illness was definitely not transmitted by Wu’er. Having watched her younger brother grow up, she had that bit of confidence. It was already commendable that she didn’t infect Wu’er.

No wonder, just now the Imperial Physician was unwilling to treat this little child, and even avoided looking when he saw her, afraid that trouble might follow from words spoken, he insisted not to reveal the reason.

That damned slut has brought disgrace to the Mu Family’s name!

Cai Wei returned the baby to the mother and quietly called a eunuch, whispered something in his ear, and the eunuch quietly exited... 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Oh dear! What sin have we committed, that my grandson should suffer such pain at such a young age?" Lady Du held the baby, crying with heartache.

Cai Wei sat down opposite her and calmly said, "Mother, don’t rush to worry, perhaps this child isn’t your grandson at all."

Once those words left her mouth, everyone in the room was stunned. Cai Die said, "Sister, what do you mean by that? Are you saying this child isn’t Wu’er brother’s?"

Cai Wei said leisurely, "Whether it is or isn’t isn’t clear yet, but it should be revealed soon."

She just sent someone to ask the Imperial Physician to examine Wu’er. If Wu’er also has syphilis, then the child might indeed belong to their Mu family, but if Wu’er is healthy, then the child isn’t from the Mu family.

Everyone knows that syphilis is easily transmissible. It’s unreasonable for Wu’er and Lady Dong to have had the child without contracting the disease, so once Wu’er’s health is confirmed, it can basically determine if the child is Mu’s offspring.

Lady Du was terrified by Cai Wei’s statement. She gazed in shock at the ’great grandson’ swaddled in the blanket, unable to accept the information Cai Wei had brought her at that moment, she said uncertainty: "Wei’er, you mustn’t speak recklessly..."

Cai Wei glanced at her and said, "Mother, this concerns a major issue, how could I speak carelessly? The possibility is enormous; you should be mentally prepared."

Cai Fei had always trusted Cai Wei the most. Since she said it, she basically determined the child wasn’t her nephew.

No wonder, when she saw the child, she didn’t feel a bit moved, just as if she were seeing a stranger’s child, without that feeling of blood is thicker than water. Now, she finally understood why.

This child not only failed to arouse her affection, but neither Die’er nor father, Chong Wu, liked him. Now it seemed they’ve realized why.

The young eunuch didn’t keep Cai Wei waiting long; soon he returned, entering the door with a delighted expression, saying: "Congratulations to the Empress Dowager, Young Master Chong Wu is in good health, without any of those unsavory illnesses."

"That’s great, just as we thought!"

Cai Wei’s mood immediately uplifted, turning to Lady Du, she said: "Mother, the child isn’t Wu’er’s. It’s Dong Wan’er’s child with another man outside."

"This... this... how is that possible?"

Lady Du was shocked by the outrageous news: "She’s a young lady of a prestigious family, how could she do such lowly and filthy deeds?"

Cai Wei said, "So what if she’s from a prestigious family? Throughout history, how many filthy sleazy deeds have happened within prestigious families? After fooling Wu’er, Dong Wan’er probably engaged in indecent affairs elsewhere, dragging our Wu’er into this mess."
