"Madam, what's wrong with the Marquis?"
"I don't know. He was like this when he came. I'm too busy taking care of the children. You'd better serve the master well today."
“Yes, Madam,” Yu Shuang curtsied.
"You are a good girl, but it's a shame to make you a concubine of the Marquis."
Yu Shuang quickly shook her head, "Madam, I'm not wronged."
She used to be a dancer, and to be able to become a concubine is already a great blessing.
"Good girl, I originally intended to send a message to you today, but the Marquis delayed me."
"Now that you're here, I'll get straight to the point."
Yu Shuang curtsied, "Madam, please speak freely."
"Now that I am the only mistress of the Marquis's mansion, I am already overwhelmed with work. I plan to make you my secondary wife. What do you think?"
As soon as Ye Lanyin finished speaking...
Yu Shuang was extremely excited.
"Madam, really?"
Ye Lanyin nodded, "Yes, when the Marquis wakes up tomorrow, I will discuss it with him, and once it's confirmed, I will put you in the family genealogy."
"Yes, madam."
After hearing Ye Lanyin's words, Shuang'er served the bruised and swollen Marquis of Zhenbei with a little more care.
It was already noon when we got back to the courtyard.
The other concubines, hearing the intimate sounds coming from her room, all blushed with anger.
“You wretch, come in with us, but she’s the most favored.”
"Who can argue with that? Relying on her certain airs, her seduction skills are truly remarkable."
"Sister, keep your voice down, don't let her hear you," Shuxue whispered a reminder.
Lingwei snorted coldly, "Tch, who's afraid of who?"
Zhiyan tugged at Lingwei's clothes, "Sister, didn't you say you were going to Madam's? Let's go."
"snort."
Lingwei flicked her sleeve and took small steps forward.
Before long, the three of them arrived at Furong Courtyard together.
Ye Lanyin sat in the main seat and smiled:
"What brings you here, sisters? Please have a seat."
"Draw a heart and prepare tea."
Zhiyan said:
“Madam, we have come here specifically to thank you. If it weren’t for your kindness in taking us into the Marquis’s mansion, we would be wandering somewhere now.”
Ling smiled and said:
"Yes, Madam, you always send me delicious food and useful things, and I am very grateful."
Shuxue sat up straight:
“Madam, the clothes you sent me a few days ago fit me very well. It is my good fortune to be favored by you.”
Ye Lanyin smiled gently.
“This is all you deserve. As the mistress of the house, I am also a little older than you, so I treat you like half a younger sister.”
"There aren't many concubines in the Marquis's mansion now, so you sisters must get along well. Those who serve the master well will be promoted."
"Look at Yu Shuang, she'll probably be a second wife in a few days."
As soon as Ye Lanyin finished speaking...
The three of them looked rather grim.
Ye Lanyin saw it all.
"Madam, are you going to promote Yu Shuang to be a secondary wife?" Lingwei raised her voice slightly.
Ye Lanyin nodded, "Not bad."
"Madam, isn't this a bit too fast?"
Shuxue echoed:
"Yes, Madam, Yu Shuang and I are both courtesans. Is it not rather embarrassing for you to be considered as a secondary wife?"
Ye Lanyin ignored the looks in their eyes and said calmly.
"It doesn't matter. As long as the Marquis is well, nothing else matters. As the mistress of the house, these are things that must be restrained."
“A woman must obey her father at home and her husband after marriage; she must not only think of herself.”
"Don't be too sad. Although she is a concubine, you are still sisters. Just continue living your lives as before."
The three of them looked at each other.
Now that a concubine has been promoted, how can life be the same as before?
Zhiyan couldn't hide her disappointment, but then she forced a smile. "Since Madam has said so, there must be a reason. We will respect Yu Shuang as much as we respect you."
Lingwei said sourly, "Madam, Yu Shuang is busy serving the master all day long, how could she have time to manage the Marquis's mansion?"
Shuxue: "Yes, Madam, I think the three of us are all more free than her."
Hua Xin stood to the side, covering her mouth where they couldn't see her.
The infighting has already begun before it even started.
Wouldn't it be even more exciting if it started?
Hehe, let them fight like dogs.
When the mistress comes into the family, things will get tough...
Lin Wanwan lay half-lying on Hua Mei, peeking out her little head and staring at them with her round eyes.
Ye Lanyin's beautiful eyes showed some displeasure.
She gently scolded Shuxue.
"Shuxue, it's fine if you say these things to me, but if Yushuang hears them, she will be unhappy. You must not say them again in the future."
Shuxue pursed her lips. "Yes, Madam."
To Lingwei, however, these words had a different meaning.
The group entered the mansion together and received the same care from the lady.
Now she has not only seduced the Marquis, but even the Madam is helping her out.
She clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the anger in her heart.
“Madam, I just remembered that there are still some things to do in the courtyard, so I will take my leave now.”
"Lingwei, why are you in such a hurry?" Ye Lanyin tried to persuade her to stay.
Lingwei stood up.
"Madam, may I come again another time?"
Seeing that she was determined to leave, Ye Lanyin could only sigh.
Before taking her away, he asked Huaxin to go to the storeroom and take out two pieces of clothing that had been made a few days ago, and gave them to her.
Lingwei happily accepted it, intending to keep it.
But when he thought about the special treatment Yu Shuang's wife gave him, he lost interest.
Shuxue, Zhiyan, and Ye Lanyin chatted for a few minutes before leaving.
I thought Ye Lanyin would give me clothes, but she only gave me two hair ties.
The two forced smiles as they left.
They left.
Behind Lin Wanwan's back, Ye Lanyin secretly led her rebellious son Lin Chang'an to various households to return the money.
To their surprise, instead of getting their money back, they gained a lot of benefits.
Fifteen minutes later.
Ye Lanyin brought Lin Chang'an back to the mansion.
Lin Chang'an was laughing so hard he was almost dumbfounded.
"Mother, this immense wealth has finally come to us."
Ye Lanyin reached out and flicked his forehead.
"What are you saying? These all belong to your sister."
Lin Chang'an scratched his head and chuckled, "Mother, isn't my sister mine?"
"My sister and I are of one heart and one mind!"
【Wanwan, don't want to be one with Third Brother. He's a bit silly.】
Lin Wanwan crawled on the ground, then looked up at Lin Chang'an.
The baby's face looked exceptionally pink and tender, with strands of glistening drool dribbling from it, swaying in mid-air before quickly falling to the ground.
Lin Chang'an covered his face when he saw the glistening saliva.
Who's the fool here?!
Ye Lanyin chuckled softly and reached out to pick up Lin Wanwan.
"Wanwan, is Third Brother a bit silly?"
The little head seemed to be under a spell, nodding incessantly.
For a moment, happy laughter filled the room.
The old lady stood outside the courtyard, her face ashen.
A fleeting murderous intent crossed his vicious face.
