"I heard that my sister has been taking care of me for the past two months. I haven't thanked her properly yet."

"Sister, what are you talking about? Although I'm not mother's biological child, I was raised by her. I'm no different from you. Isn't it my duty to take care of her when she's sick?"

Yu Sanniang replied with a smile.

The eldest princess married Duke Yu when she was young. They were very much in love. She first gave birth to the eldest son Yu Zhongxin, and later gave birth to Yu Shulan.

But during the confinement period after Yu Shulan gave birth, a maid took advantage of the Duke's drunkenness and secretly climbed onto his bed.

Afterwards, the Duke wanted to beat and kill the maid, but was stopped by the kind-hearted Princess, who made her his concubine.

Fortunately, this maid has been well-behaved since then and has never done anything inappropriate.

It was not until a month later that she was found to be pregnant. She felt that her status was different and began to act arrogantly, even ignoring the Grand Princess.

Considering that she was pregnant, the eldest princess did not bother with her. She just wanted to send her to a remote farm after she gave birth to the child.

This maid also got her comeuppance for her evil deeds. She died of heavy bleeding during childbirth. Fortunately, the baby girl was normal.

Later, the baby girl was raised by the eldest princess, who was Yu Sanniang.

Yu Sanniang and Yu Shulan grew up together and had a very good relationship, like sisters from the same mother, no different from each other.

When Yu Shulan thought of her daughter saying that Yu Sanniang was a bad person, she couldn't help but tremble.

She could accept that everyone in the Jiang family was plotting against her, but she could not accept that her sister, who grew up with her, betrayed her.

She murmured to herself, "Yes, mother has always treated us the same."

"So sister, don't say those polite words to me." Yu Sanniang looked so innocent that Jiang Qingwan wanted to vomit blood.

[Mom, besides Third Aunt, she's the most hypocritical person here. She's even worse than Third Aunt. No wonder they both have the same taste and are attracted to Third Uncle.]

[No, it's because Third Uncle likes her. Yu Sanniang doesn't like Third Uncle. She likes Daddy.]

This was too much information, and Yu Shulan felt like her head was about to explode.

How did his sister get involved with Jiang Wei Yan and even like her husband?

But Yu Sanniang was the wife of the Ning'an Earl. Before she could digest this information, she heard Jiang Qingwan continue to mutter.

Yu Sanniang was a self-deprecating and selfish person. She had always resented her grandmother for not giving her the title of legitimate daughter. She felt that raising her as a child and then letting everyone know she was a concubine's daughter was a deliberate humiliation.

[She also believed that her mother was killed by her grandmother. This time, her grandmother only had a cold and would recover after taking medicine for two days, but her condition only worsened after she took care of her. Although it is not explicitly stated in the book, it is likely that she was the one who poisoned her.]

The more Yu Shulan listened, the paler her face became. She never expected that her mother would raise such an ungrateful person.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Yu Sanniang asked worriedly, "Why don't you go back first? I'm here with mother, so you can rest assured."

"I'm worried because of you. When my grandmother fell ill, it was you who tried your best to prevent my uncle from notifying my mother. In my previous life, my mother didn't get to see my grandmother for the last time, which became her lifelong regret."

[You have gained a good reputation, and your mother has become an unfilial daughter.]

In her previous life, the eldest princess was seriously ill for more than two months, and Yu Sanniang had been serving her personally the entire time. Everyone saw it and praised her for her filial piety.

However, Yu Shulan, her biological daughter, did not show up, which inevitably gave rise to gossip.

Little did she know that all this was done intentionally by Yu Sanniang. She told the Grand Princess that Yu Shulan had suffered a hemorrhage during childbirth and her body had never recovered.

She also said that she was depressed and had worked hard to take care of the children. The Grand Princess felt very distressed when she heard this. How could she bear to let Yu Shulan worry about her?

That's why he gave the order not to tell Yu Shulan about his illness.

It was like this in the previous life and it is like this in this life. Fortunately, they arrived at the last moment in this life.

"It's okay. Mother is worried about Wanwan. After she sees her, she can rest assured and recover."

Yu Shulan said, "Sister, it's time to go back to the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion. This entire mansion still needs you to take care of it. It's not good to stay here all the time."

"The Ning'an Marquis's Mansion is not as large as the Jiang Mansion. It's a poor family with nothing to take care of."

Yu Sanniang replied indifferently.

"The Ning'an Marquis's Mansion is one of the most prestigious families in the capital. How can they be considered impoverished?"

Yu Shulan had never realized before that her sister was actually dissatisfied with her husband.

Although the Earl of Ning'an was not highly valued by the emperor, his family was wealthy and he could not be considered a poor family.

"I was just saying it casually. Sister also knows that my uncle has many wives and concubines, and there are others to serve him. It's okay if I'm not around." Yu Sanniang forced a smile, looking a little sad.

She had said the same thing before. After all, it was common knowledge throughout the capital that Earl Ning An was lustful.

Every time she talked about this, Yu Shulan felt sorry for her sister and would always say some comforting words and then give her her good things.

Listening to it again now, although I hate my sister's betrayal, I also feel sorry for the hardship she has gone through.

"Didn't you intentionally give those wives and concubines to Earl Ning An? You clearly didn't like Earl Ning An and wanted him to stay away from your rooms, so you deliberately found beautiful women to give to him. But you're now blaming him, saying that Earl Ning An is unlucky to have married you."

Were those women arranged by Yu Sanniang? Yu Shulan was shocked. What wife would want to take concubines for her husband?

But then she thought about what Jiang Qingwan had just said, that Yu Sanniang had a relationship with Jiang Weiyan and that she also liked her husband, and it seemed that everything made sense.

Now when Yu Shulan looked at her frail sister, she no longer felt any sympathy for her.

She replied coldly, "My sister is a concubine's daughter. It's already a step up for her to marry Ning Anbo. Besides, Ning Anbo treats my sister well. All matters in the mansion are decided by my sister. He has never done anything to favor a concubine over his wife."

"You have the eldest son by your side, so you should be content."

Now that I think about it, none of Ning Anbo's concubines are pregnant. Maybe it's the work of my good sister.

The expression on Yu Sanniang's face froze. As a concubine's daughter, it was considered too high for her to marry into the Ning'an Marquis's Mansion. She had heard this more than once.

But Yu Shulan never said this. She always said that she was her biological sister, not a concubine's daughter.

Whenever someone insulted her by using her status as a concubine's daughter, Yu Shulan would fight back on her behalf.

Now, how could she say such words.

"Sister, what's wrong with you? Did I do something wrong?"

Yu Shulan smiled and said, "Sister, you're overthinking it. I'm just telling the truth. As wives, we should think more about our husbands, right?"

"yes."

Yu Sanniang pulled the corner of her mouth and said reluctantly.
