What Gu Huaizhi did not say explicitly was that he planned to wait until Tai Jingwan passed away so that the child would legitimately inherit Tai Jingwan's dowry and also get the support of the Tai family.
The child can then naturally enjoy the help provided by the Tai family.
His children will no longer have to climb up step by step from the bottom like he did.
"That's a solution, but now that the child has been arranged, what about Wan'er?" Although Mrs. Tang knew the benefits of registering the child under Tai Jingwan's name, she was hesitant because she thought that Tang Wan'er was her niece after all and was about to give birth to a child for her son.
She originally thought that her son would give her the status of a concubine, but she didn't expect that he would not even give her that.
"Mother, Wan'er will have to endure it for a few years and not be brought into the mansion yet." Gu Huaizhi said in a firm tone.
"Forget it, let's do as you wish." Old Mrs. Tang sighed.
Although I don't understand my son's plan, since he promised not to let his niece down, he must have his own considerations.
. Just thinking about how to explain to her brother gave her a headache.
"To avoid any further trouble, my son plans to send his cousin to a farm outside the city tomorrow."
...
...
"Go, forget it. Tomorrow, I will send her there with you." Old Mrs. Tang thought that her son was in the wrong in this matter after all. If she personally sent Tang Wan'er to the farm, she could also comfort Tang Wan'er.
As soon as Tai Jingwan returned to Yingxue Pavilion, she was stunned when she saw the mountains of gifts.
"Liuli, where did these things come from?" Shao Jingwan asked with a frown, thinking to herself, could it be that after her sister-in-law left, someone sent some more things over?
"Miss, you are finally back!" Liuli rubbed her hands anxiously, "These were sent by Yuehua Pavilion next door."
Liuli looked at these valuable items and she really didn't know what to do with them.
She had just refused to accept it, but Jixiang from Yuehua Pavilion didn't follow the rules and just put the things down and ran away.
"Did Yuehua Pavilion send them? Why did Yuehua Pavilion send so many things?" Tai Jingwan asked puzzledly.
"Miss, do you think that Yuehua Pavilion has sent so many things over here? Could it be that there is some huge conspiracy?" Liuli said worriedly. When she thought about it, didn't those wealthy families always have wives and concubines fighting with each other, and didn't they always scheme against others openly or secretly?
What did the people in Yuehua Pavilion say? "Tai Jingwan didn't think Jiang Jinyue would play any tricks, but she didn't understand what she was up to.
Today at Tingsongju, she felt it was normal when she received a shimmering brocade handkerchief, but Amber exclaimed that she was at a huge loss - after all, what she gave in return was a gold and jade bracelet.
"It is said that it is a gift from Mrs. Jiang to the young lady." Liuli said quickly.
Tai Jingwan discovered that among the pile of gifts, there were actually several pieces of floating brocade.
"Miss, this...isn't this the same material as your handkerchief?" Amber said in disbelief as she touched the pieces of glittering fabric.
"This Jiang Jinyue is really good at making me hate her." Tai Jingwan said as she looked at the gifts with a helpless look.
"Miss, what should we do with these things now?" Liuli asked worriedly.
"Let's take them back to the warehouse first." Tai Jingwan didn't know what Jiang Jinyue's plan was, but she would keep these things for the time being and ask Jiang Jinyue later.
At night, Shao Jingwan had just laid down when a noise was heard outside the house again.
"Pearl? What's wrong?" Tai Jingwan asked in confusion.
"Sister! I knew you weren't asleep!" It was not Zhenzhu who responded to Tai Jingwan, but Jiang Jinyue's excited voice.
"Sister, is there something wrong?" Tai Jingwan quickly got up, put on a coat, opened the door and looked at Jiang Jinyue standing outside, not understanding what she was doing.
"Sister, the bed in Yuehua Pavilion is too hard. I'm not used to sleeping on it. Tonight can I..." Jiang Jinyue pointed at Tai Jingwan's bed with a flattering look on her face, and then smiled in a flattering way.
"I was negligent, Zhenzhu, according to my share, you should send a copy to the Second Madam in Yuehua Pavilion." Tai Jingwan thought that this matter was also her negligence. After all, Jiang Jinyue said today that she was not used to the bed in Yuehua Pavilion. She was only thinking about going back to her parents' home and forgot to change it for Jiang Jinyue.
"No, sister, can I stay tonight?" Jiang Jinyue waved her hands repeatedly, then blinked her watery eyes and looked at Tai Jingwan pleadingly.
"Sister, there are many servants in Yuehua Pavilion." Tai Jingwan was stunned at first. She didn't expect that Jiang Jinyue wanted to stay with her.
I was careless when I let her stay last night. If I let her stay again today, and the news gets out, people will probably think that I married this concubine for her.
"Sister, I'm afraid that the Marquis will not go to Yuehua Pavilion tonight." Jiang Jinyue had made up her mind to stay in Yingxue Pavilion tonight.
There are thousands of reasons, and she will definitely find a reasonable reason to stay.
"Second Madam, if you stay here, what will outsiders say about my young lady? Those who don't know will think that my young lady is mean and has to ask you to come here to set rules every night!" Zhenzhu on the side said dissatisfiedly.
"How could that be? I will definitely tell others that I want to stay. I promise that I only need half of the bed. Besides, I sleep very well and will never cross the line!" Jiang Jinyue quickly assured.
Tai Jingwan's mouth twitched slightly - good sleeping posture?
Whose leg was that draped over me this morning?
But she was too embarrassed to talk about such private conversations in the boudoir.
"Sister Jiang, there's a whole bed waiting for you in Yuehua Pavilion, why do you have to content yourself with occupying half of my bed?" Tai Jingwan was really overwhelmed by Jiang Jinyue's sudden enthusiasm.
If it were in the past, Tai Jingwan felt that she would not be able to say such words, but today, if she was not more assertive, Tai Jingwan felt that Jiang Jinyue might be too lazy to treat her in the future.
"But sister, I only want your half of the bed." Jiang Jinyue didn't care. Today, she just planned to be lazy here.
"Second Madam, you'd better go back quickly. What if the Marquis goes to Yuehua Pavilion tonight and can't find you? He will be worried." Zhenzhu couldn't understand why the Second Madam insisted on staying with her young lady.
Is it possible that the lady’s bed is really softer?
But didn’t the lady ask to prepare another mattress of the same kind?
She always felt that the second lady had ulterior motives.
"He doesn't have time to come tonight." Jiang Jinyue thought that Gu Huaizhi would definitely comfort his little sweetheart tonight.
At this moment, I'm afraid she doesn't even remember who she is. Besides, he married her just for her money.
[Hey, beautiful sister, you are not really so cruel as to drive me away, are you? That scumbag Gu will definitely go and coax that white lotus tonight. Do I really have to stay alone in the empty room tonight? 】
