Su Muyao kept having a strange dream where she died in modern times and then, with her memories intact, was reborn in ancient times. After a smooth birth, she was abandoned by her parents who favor...
Seeing his wife's expression, Pan Di immediately stopped talking and hid behind a big tree.
Er Ya breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Master Liu did not turn around.
"Quickly, let's leave first."
As she spoke, she led Pandi back to her own courtyard, and only after entering the courtyard did she tell Pandi to lock the gate.
"Madam, what's going on?"
"What else could it be? There's bound to be a good show to watch. How dare they have an affair with the young master's concubine behind the old lady's back, hahaha."
Pan Di saw that his wife was laughing heartily to the side, seemingly lost in thought, but he could also glean the gist of her words.
"Madam means that Xiao Cui and Master..."
Er Ya made a shushing gesture, "Shh, we can't tell anyone now."
"We should wait until things are ripe before spreading the news, otherwise, if the old lady forces that wretch to swallow an abortion pill, there won't be any good shows to watch."
Er Ya's mind is now completely focused on getting Xiao Cui to give birth to the baby, otherwise the mansion will become quite lively.
The old lady has always been a ruthless person; just look at the fact that there isn't a single concubine in the backyard, and you'll understand.
It's likely that the old lady had powerful backers, and the family was able to live so comfortably thanks to her dowry.
I'd heard people say that the master had made a promise to the old lady that she would be his only wife for the rest of his life.
Zhao Di, standing to the side, understood what his wife meant and nodded.
“Madam, you’re right. Look at Xiao Cui, she’s been picking on you ever since she came into the manor.”
She doesn't even know her place, yet she sleeps with both the master and the young master. Tsk tsk tsk, she really is a formidable person.
Er Ya's initially bad mood instantly turned wonderful.
Although the Liu family had many concubines, most of them were quite well-behaved after he entered the household.
Occasionally, a few savvy people will come over to greet me sooner or later.
As for whether people are talking about her behind her back, that's no longer something she should care about.
Since marrying into the Liu family, she has gained a lot of weight. She doesn't have to worry about other trivial matters; she just eats and sleeps.
Apart from lacking the favor of Young Master Liu, he lived a comfortable life.
The entire Prince's mansion was filled with joy today, knowing that Xiao Cui had become pregnant with the young master's child and that the doctor had said it would be a golden grandson.
That means this baby is definitely a boy, and he would be the only grandson in the Liu family.
When the old lady returned from visiting her relatives, she heard the good news and began to gather a lot of silk, jewelry, and various precious medicinal materials to send to Xiao Cui's residence.
Despite having so many concubines in her son's room, none of them seem to have been able to give him a son or daughter.
Xiao Cui has only been married for a few months, and she's already found out she's pregnant. That's exactly what I wanted!
At this time, the old lady was still smug, thinking that someone had said that her son was not healthy, so none of her concubines could get pregnant.
Look at them, it's clearly these concubines who are incompetent, yet they still try to frame her son.
Master Wang was quite pleased to see his wife gathering these things and sending them to Xiao Cui's room.
Actually, he longed to have a son born from another woman's womb, since he had been suppressed by this old hag for so many years.
Although Liu Yu is his son, he always feels very uncomfortable whenever others say that he got his fortune by relying on his wife's family.
Back then, the Liu family's decline was only temporary. I believe that with my own hard work, my business will be able to make a comeback.
He just happened to meet his current wife.
He never intended to rely on his wife; it was all his wife's own initiative to come to him. Yet, even after all these years, she still considers herself his benefactor.
He wouldn't even allow himself to take a concubine. These days, which family doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Yet, the Liu family, despite being incredibly wealthy, insists on living with an old woman.
He had secretly tried to find one or two women before, but whenever this old woman found out, she would always interfere.
They were either beaten to death or sold off, which is why anyone who knew anything about the inside story dared not approach them again.
However, he is still most satisfied with Xiao Cui now. Putting aside her appearance, just her delicate body makes him think of her every night.
The passion that had just surfaced that evening vanished the moment he turned around and saw his wife cheek to cheek with him.
Just look at those wrinkles on her face, and the thought of her having lost two teeth makes me want to vomit.
"Old woman, this is our first grandson, so we must have the servants take good care of him."
Madam Liu gave her husband a reproachful look: "Do you need to tell me that I'm taking good care of my precious grandson? Stop talking nonsense."
Although Mr. Liu was scolded by his wife, he was still secretly pleased.
"By the way, make sure that maid in the side room doesn't hurt Xiao Cui. These past few days while you were away, Xiao Cui was scratched by that maid in the side room, and that's how we found out Xiao Cui was pregnant."
Upon hearing this, the old lady slammed her hand on the table in anger: "She has really gone too far! Once she marries into my Liu family, she should abide by the rules of my Liu family."
Does she really think she's some young lady from the princess's household, just because she's a maid who married into the family? She's putting on quite the airs.
Fengyu, take a few people and keep an eye on that girl. Don't let her leave the room again. Tell her that she is disobedient and injured Xiaocui, and make her reflect on her actions in the room.
The head maid who was called upon quickly agreed and led several guards and servants to the side courtyard.
Upon arriving at the side courtyard, several guards stood watch at the entrance. Feng Yu, accompanied by several old women, knocked on the door.
When Zhao Di opened the door, the head maid ignored her and stormed into the courtyard with several old women.
"Hey, this is our Madam's courtyard! How dare you people come and go as you please? Stop right there!"
Zhao Di called from behind, but the head maid Feng Yu in front didn't even turn her head.
Er Ya had just lain down for a short rest in her room when...
Just then, shouts rang out from outside. He got off the soft couch and opened the door to see Feng Yu, who was looking menacing, raising her hand as if to knock.
"How can a maidservant serving the old lady be so rude? This is how the old lady taught you."
Feng Yu was scolded by the little girl who was a head shorter than her, and she shouted: "No matter what, I am the old lady's head maid. You are not someone who is not favored and can be scolded at will."
The master and mistress have said that since the eldest madam can't control herself, she should reflect on her actions in her room!
"Luckily you didn't hurt the only grandson in the family, otherwise even if we sold you, we wouldn't be able to afford to compensate him."
Zhao Di, standing to the side, said anxiously, "What do you mean? Our lady is a principal wife, how can she tolerate a concubine climbing over her?"
Besides, it was that concubine who was rude first; it was only right for our Madam to teach her a lesson. Why should our Madam be imprisoned?
Feng Yu snorted coldly, "Where did all that come from? Why should I? In the Liu family, it's the Old Madam who calls the shots. If she tells you to reflect on your mistakes, then just stay in your room and reflect properly."
