Chapter 056 Filial Piety Should not be Foolish Filial Piety

Bai Ruozhu's heart suddenly felt ice cold. She had seen in period dramas and ancient romance novels, many mentions the time of childbirth would be the most opportune for foul play. In those tales of palace and household intrigues, weren't the midwives often bribed, committing misdeeds during the birth process?

However, Bai Ruozhu soon calmed herself down. If Zhu Pozi was really up to such a scheme, she should have made sure Bai Ruozhu did not see it. Wouldn't it be easier to act when Bai Ruozhu was completely off-guard?

Yet, this wasn't a palace nor a grand mansion, thus it was unlikely for such deep and complex schemes to be plotted. Bai Ruozhu still felt uneasy. Zhu Pozi's smile gave her chills, and no matter what Zhu Pozi was rejoicing in, Bai Ruozhu didn't dare to gamble with her child's life.
