Zou Wanqing raised her face, which didn't match her age, and looked at the Marquis of Zhenbei. "Then, should I call you father too?"
"Wanqing is so smart."
"Dad~" Zou Wanqing immediately smiled sweetly and said.
Upon hearing this, the Marquis of Zhenbei beamed with joy, exclaiming, "Oh, what a good child!" He praised him several times.
Zou Wanqing glanced at Lin Wanwan provocatively, raised her chin, as if showing off something.
Lin Wanwan, so what if you're the legitimate daughter?
Soon, I will be the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's mansion, the only biological daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Looking at him like that, Ye Lanyin really wanted to spit.
She sneered, "Lord Marquis, you're really a happy father after all. You don't even have time to take care of all the other children in your household, yet you still have the mood to acknowledge someone else's daughter?"
"Is the Marquis breaking the rules? Zou Shuang'er is just a lowly concubine. Besides, this child was born to her and her husband. The Marquis is quite generous, liking the bloodline of his rival."
"If she becomes a secondary wife in the future, wouldn't we have to put her in the family genealogy?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei's face turned red and white as Ye Lanyin spoke.
"Why don't you just give the position of mistress to Zou Shuang'er, and let her set all the rules for the manor from now on?"
Hearing the sarcasm in Ye Lanyin's words, the Marquis of Zhenbei immediately roared in anger:
“Lanyin, she’s just a child. Is it necessary to be so serious? She only called me ‘father’ once. It won’t kill her. Now that her father is dead, it’s rare that this child is so clever and willing to call me ‘father’. What’s wrong with that?”
"You can't tolerate this child at all? Where have your manners and generosity gone?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei had just felt indebted to her and was thinking of making amends, but now that he saw her being so petty about a child, his pity immediately vanished.
Ye Lanyin straightened up and looked at the trees not far away:
"How about I go find a man outside and have my child call him 'Dad'? What do you think, Lord Marquis?"
"How dare you!" He glared angrily at Ye Lanyin.
"Since even the Marquis can't tolerate her, why should I, the lady, tolerate her? I've already done more than enough by agreeing to let her come into the manor to earn a living!"
"If it weren't for me, she would be begging for food outside right now!"
Ye Lanyin looked directly at Zhenbei Hou, showing no intention of backing down.
Just then, Zou Shuang'er came running from not far away, stumbling and staggering.
"Wanqing, my poor child."
