Chapter 178 Zhu's Threat
Zhu looked at Zhu Yixuan squatting in front of her, only a fist away from her, and cried in fear, "I don't know anything. My husband saw Su Chuan go to the pharmacy to buy medicine and then go into the Yong'an Lane Villa. He asked around and said that a woman who had just given birth lived in that yard, and that the three members of the Su family were servants of that family.
My husband said that you had a mistress. I knew nothing and didn't ask anything. I promise!"
Zhu Yixuan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He stared at Zhu in front of him dangerously, "Besides you and Bai Feng, who else knows about this?"
Zhu wanted to mention Rulan, but was afraid that Zhu Yixuan would kill Rulan, so she shook her head frantically and said, "No, no."
Zhu Yixuan looked at Zhu for a long time, then suddenly smiled, "Very good! Tell me, how should I deal with you two?"
Zhu was terrified. "Big brother, I have already warned my husband that he will never tell anyone. Look, I have not told anyone about this since I returned to the Zhu family. I will not tell anyone now and I will not tell anyone in the future. I swear!"
Zhu Yixuan took a deep breath, as if thinking about how to deal with the Zhu couple.
Zhu begged desperately for mercy.
After a long while, Zhu Yixuan said slowly: "Your sister-in-law had a miscarriage and hemorrhage. The doctor said that she can never get pregnant again. This incident has dealt a great blow to her. Just now, she kept shouting in the mansion that she wanted to kill you and that the Zhu family would sever ties with you.
I came here this time to give her an explanation. What do you think about this matter?"
Zhu was dumbfounded, but fortunately, since her life was at stake, she was not stupid enough to do anything. She immediately said anxiously, "Brother, I obviously did nothing. It was her who ridiculed me first and stole my ginseng. I just said what she said to me back to her. She is narrow-minded and trapped in her own trap. It has nothing to do with me!"
"But the Cui family won't care about these things. They will just blame you for everything."
Zhu fell silent immediately and said nothing.
Seeing this, Zhu Yixuan said, "From now on, don't go back to your parents' home."
Zhu was shocked.
Zhu Yixuan added: "Of course, this is also to avoid you from having conflicts with your sister-in-law. As for my business with Bai Feng, it will remain the same. But if I hear any rumors that shouldn't be there, I can only choose to stand with the Cui family. Do you understand?"
Zhu nodded hurriedly, "I understand, I understand."
Seeing that Zhu was so obedient, Zhu Yixuan's expression finally eased a lot. He took out a few silver bills from his pocket, put them on the table and left.
After leaving the Bai family, he went straight back to the Zhu family, first comforted the emotionally unstable Cui, and then went to the Cui family with gifts.
I waited until everything outside was settled before going to the villa in Yong'an Lane.
As soon as Zhu Yixuan got outside the door, he heard the faint cry of a baby in the yard, and suddenly he felt some strange emotions in his heart.
As soon as the gate opened, Zhu Yixuan couldn't wait to ask Su Chunsen, "Yunyun gave birth, right? Is it a boy or a girl?"
Su Chunsen was angry with Zhu Yixuan, but he didn't dare to show it. He just replied respectfully and distantly: "It's a boy."
Zhu Yixuan was overjoyed and strode to the backyard without even looking at Su Chunsen.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Ke Yunyun sitting on the couch, holding her child and coaxing him to sleep. There was a smile on her face as gentle as water.
Zhu Yixuan unconsciously slowed down his pace and spoke softly, "Hello Yun'er, I'm here to see you."
"Young Master?" Ke Yunyun stood up holding the child.
Zhu Yixuan hurried over to hug her and the child, then sat down. His eyes fell on the child and he couldn't move them away. "This is... my son?"
Ke Yunyun smiled gently and nodded slightly, "Yes, Master has been too busy to come over, so I gave the child a nickname, Ankang, and am waiting for you to give him a full name."
Zhu Yixuan felt a little guilty and was afraid to look into Ke Yunyun's eyes. He just stared at the child without blinking.
The child in Ke Yunyun's arms seemed to sense something, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Zhu Yixuan. After a moment, his little mouth suddenly pouted, and he cried loudly. His voice was loud and powerful, and it was obvious that he was a healthy baby.
Zhu Yixuan thought of his sick eldest son, and he loved the child in Ke Yunyun's arms even more. He said, "The nickname you gave him is very good. From now on, his full name will be Zhu Kangcheng. I hope he will be healthy and everything he wants will come true."
Ke Yunyun was overjoyed, "Thank you for giving him this name, our Kang Cheng will definitely be healthy."
After Xiaoxi finished changing the baby's diaper, the crying baby immediately quieted down and even blinked at Xiaoxi.
That little look is so adorable no matter how you look at it.
Zhu Yixuan's heart melted at once, and he eagerly asked Xiaoxi to give the child to him.
Zhu Yixuan, who had never held a legitimate eldest son, looked at the son in his arms with eyes full of loving tenderness. He unconsciously shook his legs and feet to coax him, and soon the baby was coaxed to sleep.
Zhu Yixuan was very proud, even more excited than if he had made a big deal, "Yunyun, look, our son is asleep! He is so easy to take care of!"
When his eldest son was born, his cry was as weak as a cat's meow. He didn't even dare to touch him, for fear that he might accidentally lose the child. Ever since the child was born, there has been no peace in Cui's yard, with the child's crying day and night. The maids and old women who served him were exhausted, and they were also terrified.
So much so that he had always believed that babies were troublesome and difficult to take care of, but today he realized that he had misunderstood.
Ke Yunyun smiled and said, "He is not noisy at all. He only cries when he is hungry, pee or poop. Otherwise he is very well behaved. He sleeps after eating and plays for a while after waking up. I don't feel tired even if I take care of him myself."
Zhu Yixuan thought of Su Chuan going to the pharmacy and frowned in worry, "How is your health? Have you seen a doctor? I have been too busy recently and have not been able to take care of you. I am sorry that you have been wronged. Don't worry, I will compensate you."
Ke Yunyun shook her head sympathetically, "I know you're busy, and I didn't dare let my cousins disturb you. Fortunately, before I gave birth, my cousin's husband brought a doctor from Moshi Town over, and the midwife was also an experienced hand hired from outside the city. With them by my side, I was able to give birth smoothly.
It’s just that I’m still recuperating and need to take some tonic medicine from time to time. Also, some people nearby occasionally ask my uncle about my situation. Maybe they find it strange that you don’t come here often.”
Zhu Yixuan's face changed slightly. Thinking of what Zhu said when she threatened him, he couldn't help but worry.
This county town is neither small nor big. Ke Yunyun's existence will be discovered sooner or later. If Cui gives him another healthy son, he won't care about Ke Yunyun and her son being exposed. He can continue to keep them in Yong'an Lane.
But now it is obvious that Cui can no longer give him a healthy son. In order to appease Cui and the Cui family, he cannot let his concubine give birth to a son. Ke Yunyun's child is particularly precious and there must be no mistakes.
