For many days in a row, Du Wan had been using her pregnancy and physical discomfort as an excuse to completely ignore the rules of the General's Mansion.
The old lady felt sorry for her because she was pregnant and was afraid that something might go wrong, so she did not pursue the matter.
However, in reality, Du Wan has always been in good health and was able to give birth to a child successfully in the countryside, not to mention that she is now well cared for in the general's mansion.
"The old lady is kind and never wants to argue with the younger generation. Considering your physical discomfort, she gave you face. But I am the mistress of the general's mansion, and I can't ignore you like the old lady did."
Shen Yuerong placed one hand on the side of the wheelchair, with a look of forbearance in her eyes.
"Madam Du, like the old lady, I exempt you from the morning and evening visits. But after all, I am the principal wife and you are the concubine. Don't be too arrogant in front of me."
Du Wan stood in the distance, full of disdain for Shen Yuerong, and the emotions that had been accumulating for many days finally burst out.
"Legal wife? A legal wife who hasn't even seen her husband in three years? How ridiculous!"
"Yulang likes me, so I can do whatever I want in this general's mansion for the rest of my life. But you, how pitiful, have never been taken seriously by anyone in these years." Du Wan's words were like sharp blades, and every word pierced Shen Yuerong's heart.
Shen Yuerong raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her and glanced at Qinghua, who immediately stepped forward and slapped Du Wan.
This slap caught Du Wan off guard.
"What are you doing?" Du Wan's voice was sharp and piercing.
"This is the price you pay for disrespecting me, Du Wan. I'm not the old lady, nor am I Fu Hengyu, so I won't really take you seriously. If you just stay as a concubine, I don't mind your background or the children you give birth to, but if you dare to provoke me again, believe it or not, I will make sure your child can't survive."
Du Wan had never seen such a terrifying Shen Yuerong. She unconsciously protected her stomach and shrank back.
"If you dare to harm the baby in my belly, Yulang will not let you go!"
Du Wan pointed at Shen Yuerong, her eyes filled with fear and uneasiness.
Shen Yuerong looked at her with a smile in her eyes, "Really? Then we have to see if you have the ability to make him break up with me. Now the whole general's mansion has a lot of things that depend on me, I want to see if he will help you or me."
Shen Yuerong was fearless. She had just solved a big problem for the General's Mansion. Even if Fu Hengyu was unhappy, he would never attack her.
"You...you despicable person." Du Wan glared at Shen Yuerong.
Shen Yuerong teased: “If there is nothing else, come back early.”
Shen Yuerong had no intention of arguing with her, she just felt that she deserved a beating.
Du Wan glared at Qinghua fiercely, but when she saw her hitting hand, she left quickly out of fear. Shen Yuerong couldn't help laughing when she saw how timid she was.
"Miss, since I was asked to beat Madam Du today, will the general make things difficult for you when he comes back? Should we do something?" Qinghua asked worriedly after Du Wan left.
Shen Yuerong shook her head, "At this moment, he will never embarrass me." Shen Yuerong knew Fu Hengyu's thoughts very well, so she dared to embarrass Du Wan at this time to vent her anger.
Sure enough, when Fu Hengyu returned home after a day of official duties, he heard Du Wan crying and complaining to him.
"I know she solved the problem for the General's Mansion and saved Jing'er. Now she is the savior of the entire General's Mansion, but she can't do this... If she hurts our child, I won't live either..."
"She actually hit you?" Fu Hengyu frowned.
Du Wan said aggrievedly, "Maybe something I said didn't please my sister and made her angry."
"My sister told me a lot today, and I think what she said is right. Since I entered the mansion, I have never followed the rules. I really don't want to be someone else's concubine."
"But Yulang, we haven't even had our wedding yet, and she's using her title as Madam to pressure me. How am I going to survive in this mansion in the future?"
As she spoke, Du Wan's tears fell one by one.
"I never thought of making you my concubine."
Fu Hengyu hugged Du Wan in his arms and felt distressed when he saw the woman's blushing cheeks.
"You are so cruel. I will apply some medicine on you and then seek justice for you."
After Fu Hengyu treated the wound on Du Wan's face, he went to find Shen Yuerong.
When he went there, Shen Yuerong was sitting alone in the corridor, looking like she was waiting for someone.
"You knew I would come?" Shen Yuerong nodded and placed a cup of tea in front of him very naturally.
"My men beat Du Wan this afternoon, so naturally you have to come and seek justice for her."
"I know about this matter. She was also wrong first. But why can't we talk it out calmly instead of resorting to violence?" Fu Hengyu asked.
"I have talked to her nicely. Besides, as a mistress, can't I teach a concubine a lesson?" Shen Yuerong put down the cup and asked.
"Of course she can, but Du Wan is pregnant with my child and I'm afraid something might happen to the child!" Fu Hengyu explained.
“Child, it’s a child again.” Shen Yuerong’s tone was a little aggrieved.
"Do you all value the child in her belly so much that even though I was wronged first, you still say I shouldn't have treated her so badly?"
"That's not what I meant, Rong'er. I just don't want my child to get hurt. If Du Wan has done anything wrong to you, could you please be patient for a while? Once the child is born, even if you want to take her life, I will do as you wish. How about that?" Seeing her like that, Fu Hengyu quickly calmed Shen Yuerong's emotions.
. Shen Yuerong shook her head.
"I don't want her life. I'm just a little disappointed."
"I" finally got in touch with Princess Yong'an and resolved the issue of the young marquis, but then I met Du Wan who came to provoke me. ”
"My dear husband, I tolerated everything, but what I got in return was her getting worse."
"What did Du Wan say about you?" Fu Hengyu frowned subconsciously, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"What does it matter what she said? Did my husband care?"
"Forget it. If you're here to teach me a lesson today, just go back first! I don't want to listen!"
"If you insist on standing up for her, then let her be the general's wife!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Hengyu immediately panicked.
Everyone in the general's mansion depends on Shen Yuerong. If Du Wan, a skinny girl, is really allowed to run the household, the mansion will sooner or later become an empty house.
Fu Hengyu knew this better than anyone else.
This is also the reason why he never let Shen Yuerong go.
She was able to even handle such a big matter as Princess Yong'an. If it were Du Wan, she would probably just cry.
"Okay, Rong'er, why are you so angry again?"
"She's just a skinny girl, what can she understand? Why are you angry over such a person? It's not worth it."
Fu Hengyu went over to hold Shen Yuerong's hand, but Shen Yuerong dodged it without leaving a trace.
