"This humble servant, Yang Liu, greets you, sir."
She deliberately introduced herself before Bian Yanzhi, because she knew that if Bian Yanzhi introduced herself, she would definitely not introduce her as Sang Yun's concubine.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Bian Yanzhi's expression change repeatedly.
Sang Hongfu's expression also darkened: "Neither I nor my son have ever taken a concubine. May I ask how you, young lady, can be considered a concubine?"
Although he didn't concern himself with the power struggles within the inner quarters, he wasn't entirely unaware of them. He knew Bian Yanzhi's physical condition; how could she possibly move Yang Liu?
Moreover, Bian Yanzhi is his personally acknowledged daughter-in-law and his own niece. How could she be bullied before even marrying into the family?
Yang Liu's heart sank upon hearing Sang Hongfu's words; it seemed the old man wasn't going to acknowledge her as his wife.
No, she couldn't allow that to happen; she had to find a way to stay in the Sang family mansion.
Otherwise, she probably wouldn't be able to stay in the capital. Thinking this, she cried as she spoke: "Replying to Master, it was Madam who agreed to let Yang Liu stay. Yang Liu has been eating and living with Young Master all this way and has already regarded herself as Young Master's person."
Sang Hongfu remained silent for a long time. He glanced at Bian Yanzhi and said, "Then let's wait until the young master returns to discuss this matter. Before Yanzhi enters the family, my Sang family will not accept any other woman. Miss Yang, please have some self-respect."
After saying that, he looked at Zhuzhu and said, "Help your young lady back. In the future, no one is allowed to disturb her unless necessary. After Jiang'er's matter is settled in a few days, I will ask Ruo'er to take another look for you."
Hearing Sang Hongfu's words, she felt a warm feeling in her heart. Since coming to the Sang family, Sang Hongfu hadn't paid much attention to her. She had always thought that Sang Hongfu disliked her, but she didn't expect that her uncle still loved her.
Bian Yanzhi smiled and curtsied to Sang Hongfu: "Yanzhi thanks Uncle."
After saying that, he left with Sang Hongfu, supported by Zhuzhu.
Yang Liu felt awkward sitting there alone after everyone had left. Just as she was about to get up, she saw the maids from before walking towards her.
She reached out her hand to Xiaohui, who immediately helped her up.
Several maids looked at her and whispered words of comfort: "Miss Yang, don't take it too seriously. Master is only doing this because of her status."
"Yes, Miss Yang, don't worry. Miss Biao's health isn't good either, so the young master will still have to go there often in the future."
"That's right. When Miss Yang gets pregnant, won't the master still accept you as his wife?"
Yang Liu bowed slightly to the group and said, "Thank you all for your kindness. Since Master has said so, I dare not disobey. Sisters, please stay away from me in the future to avoid being misunderstood."
Her words were vague and unclear, and the maids, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, began to speak recklessly.
"What's there to be afraid of? No matter what, Miss Biao is just a sickly person. It's not even certain whether she'll be able to survive long enough to marry the eldest young master."
—Shh, be careful someone hears us.
"It's alright, when has she ever dared to say anything bad about us?"
"Yes, that's right. From now on, we servants will rely on Miss Yang's help."
Yang Liu was secretly overjoyed, but on the surface she wore a flustered and uneasy expression: "My dear sisters, you're being too formal with me. It's best to avoid saying such things in the future, as it wouldn't be good if someone with ulterior motives overheard."
The maid nodded in agreement: "Miss Yang is right. We will be more careful in the future. Don't worry, Miss Yang, we won't make things difficult for you."
