The original owner, Bei Yutang, thought this was how her life would end. The torture she endured at the hands of the Fu family had long since worn away her dignity and temper. She became increasingly cowardly, a complete punching bag.
She originally thought that this would be her life, until Qin Shishi became pregnant and things changed.
That day, Bei Yutang was so hungry that she secretly got out of bed, left the room, and took out a black steamed bun from the kitchen. It was the food she had secretly hidden.
Just as she was on her way back with the black steamed bun, she heard noise coming from the next room, as if there was an argument.
Bei Yutang walked to the window as if possessed, put his ear against the wall and listened attentively.
"Cousin, I'm pregnant now. When will you make me your wife?" Qin Shishi was very angry when she saw that Fu Yibo was reluctant to divorce the old woman.
She had thought that her cousin would divorce that hag soon, but she didn't expect that she was still staying at home.
Fu Yibo comforted her, "Shishi, except for this matter, I can agree to everything else. Look at you now, what's the difference between you and the mistress of the house? It's just a title."
How could Qin Shishi possibly agree? "Cousin, are you still in love with that woman?"
"How is that possible? I don't like her at all." Fu Yi Bo replied without thinking.
Qin Shishi obviously didn't believe what he said. If he didn't like her, why did he keep her at home? If he wanted to find a maid to do chores, there were plenty of hardworking maids out there.
Given the Fu family's current financial situation, it is not easy to buy a maid to serve them.
"Then why are you so reluctant to divorce her?" Qin Shishi was ready to get to the bottom of it.
If it were before, she would definitely not dare to do this, for fear of making Fu Yibo unhappy, but now she is not afraid anymore, because she is pregnant with Fu Yibo's child and has the confidence.
Who would want to be a concubine when there is a legitimate wife? Besides, she doesn't want her child to be born a bastard.
The distinction between a concubine's son and a legitimate son is related to the future of the child.
"Don't ask. There's no way I'm going to divorce her." Fu Yi Bo said a little irritably.
Qin Shishi's temper flared up. "Wow, how could you be so cruel to make our son a bastard from the moment he was born, looked down upon by others? You lied to me when you said you didn't like her. You still loved her in your heart. Wow, why is my life so miserable?"
Fu Yibo was a little annoyed by her crying, "Don't cry. I really don't like her. I have never liked her from the beginning to the end."
"Then why don't you divorce her?"
"I have my own reasons." Fu Yibo revealed this to comfort her.
"What kind of hardship can make you do this?" Qin Shishi asked.
"Don't ask anymore."
Fu Yibo obviously didn't want to say more, but Qin Shishi was not so easy to deal with.
"Cousin, don't you still believe me? I am yours now. Just tell me if you have anything. Do you think I would harm you?" Qin Shishi looked at him with a hurt face.
Fu Yibo was pestered by her and had no choice but to tell the truth.
"From the very beginning, I was asked by a member of an official's family to flirt with her, successfully win her heart, and then marry her, and..."
