Marquis Zhenbei's eyes widened. "No, if Lanyin finds out, we'll be in big trouble."
"My mother gave her life for our future, have you ever thought about how I feel?" the woman said angrily.
“I lost my mother because of your real wife. I’ve lived here for fourteen years for you, and I’ve been criticized for fourteen years.”
"Have you ever considered my feelings, my husband?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei felt sorry for the woman, but after glancing at the clever and bright child in her arms, his heart softened.
"In that case, you must leave before she finishes her postpartum confinement."
The woman smiled and said, "Okay."
The news quickly reached Ye's ears.
“Madam, she is the old lady’s niece. She has come to visit relatives and will stay for a month before leaving.”
"Mother, she is the mistress."
The old lady had no niece at all.
The Marquis's family has always had a single heir; the others are all from collateral branches, and the daughters of those collateral branches have long since married.
[Waaaaah, Mommy is so pitiful! I want to grow up quickly so I can protect her.]
Mrs. Ye didn't know how much her daughter knew, but she was definitely deceived.
Now I believe my daughter's words without a doubt.
"Hua Mei, go and tell the eldest young master to let me entertain this niece."
"Madam, why?" Hua Mei asked suspiciously.
"She's not some niece, she's the Marquis's mistress!" Madam Ye mustered up her courage and revealed the truth.
Because they were her personal maids and would be harmed by the Marquis of Zhenbei in the future, she spoke up in advance to protect them.
Hua Mei stared wide-eyed at the lady in horror, completely unable to believe that the usually affectionate Marquis had actually kept a mistress.
But when you think about what happened to the young lady, it makes sense.
"Madam~"
"I'm fine, go ahead."
After confirming that the lady was not crying, Hua Mei turned around and walked out of the room. After exchanging a few words with Hua Xin, she hurriedly left.
With red eyes, Hua Xin walked in and knelt down at Ye Shi's feet with a thud.
"Madam, it's my fault. I haven't noticed it all these years."
"He's just too good at pretending." He's been pretending for over a decade, and she, his wife, hasn't noticed at all.
Lin Chang'an couldn't forget his sister ever since they last met.
Now that he sees it every day while eating, he likes it even more.
"Sister, sister, I'm here." Lin Chang'an jogged in and saw Ye Shi holding her daughter in her arms from afar.
"Ugh... Ugh..."
[Fourth Brother, if you don't come soon, I'll be bored to death!]
When will it be a full moon?
I want to eat meat, I want to eat candy, waah...
Lin Chang'an smiled and gently rubbed Lin Wanwan's cheeks. "Little sister, you'll be a month old in half a month. I'll buy you candy then, are you happy?"
Lin Wanwan's eyes lit up.
They waved their little fists excitedly.
"Okay, okay, I bought the candy, now I'm going to find Daddy."
Just a moment ago, Mrs. Ye was smiling, but the next moment, upon hearing her daughter's words, she felt a little nervous.
The Marquis is currently deeply in love with the old lady and her mistress, so why would he care about her daughter?
For the past two weeks, they have been living together like a family.
Her mother-in-law and husband haven't stepped into the house even once in the past two weeks.
"Little sister, when you turn one month old, Daddy will come and give you a red envelope."
"It's just that Father is busy these days, so he couldn't come."
Lin Chang'an was somewhat disappointed. He pressed his face against the bed and spoke to Lin Wanwan face to face.
His younger sister is so pretty; her little face is getting rounder and rounder, and she's grown up a bit.
Its little mouth opens and closes, making smacking noises—it's so cute!
【I don't want him, I don't want him! He's not my father, he's that witch's father!】
Mrs. Ye had heard her daughter say this more than once, and she inexplicably had a bad feeling.
Lin Chang'an reached out and stroked her small face. "Little sister, our father is the Marquis of Zhenbei. He is your father and also my father."
"When the child is born, the father will definitely give you a red envelope."
No, no, he's not my father.
Both men felt helpless upon hearing their daughter's rejection, assuming it must be because the Marquis had been away these past few days.
Ye hated Zhenbei Marquis even more.
Lin Chang'an was also dissatisfied with his father.
"Is this my cousin's house?"
A sharp female voice suddenly rang out from outside the door. Hua Xin frowned slightly and went out.
A woman wearing a long, bright red dress and a hairpin adorned with a woman's hair ornament walked in.
"Madam Zou, may I ask what brings you here?"
"My wife is currently in postpartum confinement and it is inconvenient for her to receive guests."
The woman called Zou Shuang'er, holding a child in her arms, sneered and swayed as she walked in.
Seeing her children surrounding her knees inside the house, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
Ye happened to see the darkness in her eyes.
"May I ask who you are?"
Zou Shuang'er smiled gently and lifted the child's arms slightly.
"Hello, sister-in-law. I am the old lady's niece. I came to visit relatives a few days ago and am staying at your house."
"My cousin-in-law doesn't mind, does she?"
Ye gripped the bedding tightly.
They even dared to come knocking on the door with their mistress!
Oh dear, this mistress looks like a vixen.
She's over thirty, dressed so provocatively, looking like a cowardly chicken.
[Tsk tsk, my mother is still the most beautiful.]
Madam Ye smiled slightly, "Of course I don't mind. There are no other concubines in the mansion, so my cousin can stay here."
The daughter in Zou Shuang'er's arms stared wide-eyed at the infant not far away.
