"Her forehead is very hot. Maybe she has a fever," Dongfang Yu said. He frowned and looked at Dongfang Mei. "I think we should ask Liu Hao to come over and check on her. In case—"
"I think we should call Ah Mo," Dongfang Mei answered quickly, cutting off Dongfang Yu. "Mu Ru is Ah Mo's wife. It was Ah Mo's idea to have her locked up in the basement. Most importantly, the second madam miscarried because of her. If we let her off easily after what she did, what are the use of our family's rules?"
Dongfang Yu was stunned. He nodded and said, "That's true. We really shouldn't get involved in these matters. I'll call Big Brother now and report the situation to him. We'll see what he has to say about this."
Dongfang Yu stood up as he spoke. He grabbed his phone and was about to walk out the door, but before he could take another step, Dongfang Mei said, "Okay, Ah Yu, you and Ah Jun take care of Mu Ru first. I'll call Ah Mo."
Dongfang Mei had already taken out her phone and was already dialing Dongfang Mo's number. In a dark corner not far away, there was a pair of eyes staring at Dongfang Yu.
Dongfang Mei frowned and put down her phone. She said, "Ah Mo is working overtime again. He really isn't taking care of himself."
"Mom, what do you think we should do?" Dongfang Jun asked a little anxiously. He pointed at Mu Ru, who was leaning against the sofa with a flushed face and weak countenance, and said, "Sister-in-Law has a fever. Didn't you tell Big Brother about her situation?"
"Your brother and Rodger are negotiating. His phone is in the office. His secretary answered it," Dongfang Mei said angrily. She looked at Mu Ru and said, "How about this? Let's send Mu Ru back to the wine cellar and wait for Ah Mo to come home."
"How can we do that? She is sick," Dongfang Yu answered Dongfang Mei. "Even sick prisoners deserve to be checked by doctors. Besides, Sister-in-Law is not a prisoner. Why don't we let Liu Hao come and check on her first. If it angers Big Brother that we took her out of the cellar, I will take the blame."
"Yes, yes, yes," Dongfang Jun said in agreement to what Dongfang Yu said. "If Big Brother wants to blame someone, I will take the blame as well. Second Sister-in-Law has already miscarried and there is nothing we can do about it. We can't let Eldest Sister-in-Law die along with the baby, right?"
Dongfang Mei secretly glared at her son. However, Dongfang Jun's heart was completely focused on Mu Ru, so he failed to notice his mother's frustration.
Dongfang Mei did not seem to object his idea, so he immediately took out his phone and called the family doctor, Liu Hao, and told him to rush over to the house.
Mu Ru leaned against the sofa. Her body was adjusting to the temperature of the room after being in the chilly wine cellar for more than a day. When she had awakened, she felt even dizzier and wanted to throw up. However, since she had not eaten for more than a day, her stomach was empty.
Mother Liu brought her ginger soup and told her to drink it while it was hot. However, Mu Ru found the ginger soup too spicy, and she only drank two mouthfuls. It was something she wasn't accustomed to drinking, and she threw up.
