The old lady spoke in a panic.
"Lanyin, what are you doing?"
"Didn't Mother hear it? Zou Wanqing is making false claims of kinship, disrupting the Lin family's bloodline, and calling the Marquis 'Father' and my son 'Brother' in person."
"Is her next step to call me 'Mother' and become the legitimate daughter of the family?"
"After that, shall we have Zou Shuang'er replace me as the mistress of the house?"
The old lady was startled.
How could Ye Lanyin have guessed their plan?
She composed herself and slowly said:
"Lanyin, what are you saying?"
"Wanqing is just a child, how would she know about relationships like father and brother?"
"She was just saying it."
Ye Lanyin smiled, comforted her daughter in her arms, and then looked up at Zou Shuang'er.
"Does Mother mean that Zou Wanqing is a born idiot, stupid as a pig? That's why she can't recognize who her father is and who her brother is?"
Zou Shuang'er was furious when she heard Ye Lanyin insult her daughter like that.
"Madam, how could my daughter be a fool?"
"She could talk when she was born and walk when she was six months old. How could such a child be stupid?"
Seeing her anxious expression, Ye Lanyin felt incredibly relieved.
"Since you say she's not stupid, but smarter than normal children, how could she not understand the roles of father and brother?"
"Unless... unless Zou Wanqing is your and the Marquis's biological daughter, and you have betrayed your husband's family and been having an affair with my husband! In fact, you are not only the Marquis's mistress, but you have served two men at the same time, leading a licentious and chaotic life. You should be drowned!"
With a thunderous roar, Zou Shuang'er felt as if she had been struck by lightning, filled with fear and unease.
“I…” Zou Shuang’er bit her lip tightly.
Fearing the plan would fail, the old lady grabbed Zou Shuang'er's hand and winked at her.
Zou Wanqing was about to admit it, but Zou Shuang'er covered her mouth tightly.
"Madam, have you misunderstood something?"
“My child was born to my former husband; you cannot slander me like this.”
"I met the master after my husband died."
Seeing her suppressing her grief and indignation, Ye Lanyin had no intention of exposing her and let her continue her act quietly.
"So, you're admitting that your daughter is as stupid as a pig?"
"I'm giving you one last chance. If you keep making baseless kinship claims, I'll take this to the Marquis and confront him to see if he's admitting it or if you've done something else."
The old lady hurriedly said, "Lanyin, this is Shuang'er's fault."
As she spoke, she looked at Zou Shuang'er again, "Aren't you going to apologize?"
Zou Shuang'er knelt down, feeling wronged. "Madam, it's all my fault."
Ye Lanyin looked down at her and said, "So, you admit that your daughter is as stupid as a pig?"
Wanwan said that in her previous life, Zou Shuang'er was a mistress and lived a more comfortable life than she, the main wife, and was even comparable to those princesses and queens.
While she devoted herself to the Marquis's mansion and managed its inner quarters, Zou Shuang'er secretly plotted with the child she had raised to murder those around her.
Zou Shuang'er bit her lip. "Yes."
"I can't hear you, Concubine Zou, speak louder."
Zou Shuang'er closed her eyes and gritted her teeth.
"Madam, I admit that my daughter is as stupid as a pig."
【Hahaha……】
See? Even the mother of the naughty child has admitted it.
Zou Wanqing is so clumsy and stupid, she's not even as good as me, a baby!
Wanwan would never mistake her parents for each other!
Zou Wanqing trembled with anger. How could her mother humiliate her like this?
She actually called Lin Wanwan, that idiot, stupid as a pig!
She's her own daughter.
Her eyes were fixed on Lin Wanwan, who was biting into a cookie.
Ye Lanyin smiled and patted Lin Wanwan's head.
He then looked at Liu Ruyan, who was crying her eyes out beside him, and pretended to be surprised.
"Ruyan, why are you still kneeling? Get off on the ground where it's cool."
"Shixuan still needs your care, so don't overwork yourself. Don't worry, with your mother around, no one will dare to call you a jinx."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Zou Shuang'er and smiled slightly.
Zou Shuang'er.
I want you to watch as, before I leave, your son and your daughter-in-law will all follow my lead.
Everything you've invested in us, I will make you pay back, bit by bit, tenfold!
Then, she looked at Liu Ruyan and said softly, "Ruyan, it was so dark last night, it's possible that people misjudged."
"Your mother believes you; it wasn't you who pushed the lilac."
From yesterday to today, no one has believed her. Liu Ruyan's defenses were completely shattered by Ye Lanyin's words.
She nodded with emotion, letting out a sorrowful sob.
The old lady also did not want Liu Ruyan to be treated like this, after all, Liu Ruyan came to the mansion to bring her good luck.
Now that Ye Lanyin has said this, no one in the manor will dare to speak ill of her.
"Lanyin, what should Shixuan do?"
"He seemed to have been possessed yesterday, the Ghost Festival."
Now, the only one who can save Lin Shixuan is Ye Lanyin.
Ye Lanyin has money, her family is powerful, and with the help of General Liu Ruyan's family, they will definitely be able to save Shixuan.
How could Ye Lanyin not know what the old lady was planning?
When he wants her, he flatters and fawns over her; when he doesn't, he discards her like trash.
"Mother, let's wait until Shixuan wakes up before we talk about it."
Hehe, wake up, wake up.
Anyway, he was scalded by boiling oil and plunged into a sea of fire, so he was severely weakened.
Ye Lanyin was startled.
