Concerned about her future, Miss Wang carefully recalled what happened that day.

"I don't know what happened that day."

"I was very sleepy at the time. I woke up because of the noise outside. When I woke up, I found my brother-in-law in my bed."

"But I swear on my life that I really did not seduce my brother-in-law. Nothing happened between us that day."

Yuan Zhao nodded upon hearing this.

Before meeting this third young lady, she wondered if it was her doing, but now it seems that it wasn't.

She had previously thought that the emperor had ordered someone to do it, but now she felt that the whole thing was a bit strange.

Even if the Emperor were to order someone to do such a thing, he shouldn't have chosen Miss Wang, an unfavored concubine's daughter. He should have chosen his sister-in-law's younger sister.

Only in that way can the Wang family and the Yuan family completely turn against each other.

Aside from causing some conflict between the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the choice of Miss Wang did not significantly impact the marriage alliance between the Yuan and Wang families.

Something's fishy about this!

Yuan Zhao had countless thoughts running through her mind, but she couldn't guess who had done it.

She could only suppress her doubts, talk to Miss Wang for a while, and then leave.

As soon as she left, Miss Wang's maid couldn't help but say:

"Miss, can we trust Miss Yuan's words?"

"I don't know, but this is my only chance."

Miss Wang sighed as she spoke.

After leaving Miss Wang's courtyard, Yuan Zhao went to sit with Madam Wang for a while.

Madam Wang knew everything she had done today.

Upon learning that her daughter was finally willing to meet her son-in-law, and that the two had been in the room for two hours without coming out, Madam Wang was very satisfied and naturally became even more enthusiastic towards Yuan Zhao.

Yuan Zhao didn't tell her about Miss Wang San either; she needed to convince her older brother and sister-in-law first.

In the evening, the eldest brother and sister-in-law finally came out of the yard.

Although her eyes were a little swollen, her complexion was rosy, and her gaze towards Yuan Gu was filled with boundless affection.

Seeing this, what else could Madam Wang not understand? At that moment, the huge weight in her heart finally lifted.

She had a meal prepared so that Yuan Gu and his companions could eat before leaving.

While Yuan Zhao and Yuan Gu were talking, she pulled her daughter aside.

"It's good that you've figured it out. Don't do anything foolish again."

"Mother, I understand."

"Also, you should keep in mind what your mother told you before."

Madam Wang said.

Hearing this, the eldest sister-in-law of the Yuan family's smile faded slightly. After a while, she looked at her mother and said:

"Mother, we won't give him a concubine."

Madam Wang frowned, about to say something, when she heard her daughter speak:

"That's what he meant too."

"He told me that having children is a matter of fate."

"If there really isn't one in the future, then we'll adopt one from the soldiers who died in battle. They can take care of us in our old age and see us off when we die."

This was the first time Yuan Gu had explicitly told her that there would be no other people, only her.

He has no obsession with having children; it's good to have them, but it's not a big deal if he doesn't.

Today, he made a promise to himself to be with only one person for life.

After hearing this, Madam Wang was completely stunned. She had never expected her son-in-law to make such a promise.

After a while, she came to her senses and said "good" several times.

"You are indeed a blessed person to have found someone who truly cares for you."

"Don't argue with him in the future, the two of you should get along well."

"Your mother will naturally take care of everything else."

At this point, a ruthless glint appeared in Madam Wang's eyes.

Now that his daughter's matter has been resolved, there's no need to keep some people around.

After all, she was her own mother. The eldest sister-in-law of the Yuan family immediately knew what her mother was thinking. She thought for a moment and then spoke:

"Mother, let me think about my third sister's matter some more."

She didn't trust her third sister; she trusted Yuan Gu.

He said he hadn't done anything, so I believed him.

As for what happened that day, she now has something on her mind and naturally wants to investigate it thoroughly.

If what Third Sister said is true, and she is innocent, then she won't do anything. But if she orchestrated it herself, then she won't tolerate her.
