When the first and second wives learned that the old lady had brought a child back from outside to adopt to Gu Yunran, they ran over to watch the fun.
As soon as they arrived at the door, they heard that the child had contracted smallpox. They were about to leave but were stopped by Gu Yunran.
"Since the eldest and second sisters-in-law are here, let's go inside and discuss it together."
The first lady came in with a cold snort, and the second lady had no expression on her face.
"Mother!"
As soon as the two ladies entered the room, they respectfully paid their respects to Madam Lu.
Madam Lu waved her hands irritably: "Forget it."
"Since you two are here, I'd like to give you some advice. Who should be the best person to raise this distant Lu family member's child?"
The eldest lady was smart and immediately understood what Old Lady Lu meant. She smiled and said, "Give it to Yun Ran."
"She's been married for three years and still has no children. It's obvious she's infertile. It's only fitting that this child be adopted into her name."
"Perhaps adopting this child under her name will bring good luck, and Yun Ran might even get pregnant."
Madam Lu nodded in satisfaction and looked at the Second Madam, "Second Madam, what do you think?"
"Mother, I think what my eldest sister-in-law said makes sense." The second wife said, and then looked at Gu Yunran, "But that also depends on whether Yunran is willing."
Old Madam Lu snorted in her heart. This second son's family was a sly fox who wanted to offend neither side.
She remained silent and glanced at Lu Qingzhou.
Lu Qingzhou said excitedly: "Gu Yunran, you are the mistress of the family. You have always been filial and sensible. This child should be raised by you."
Gu Yunran glanced at Lu Qingzhou calmly: "This is not my child, why should I raise him?"
"Whoever takes it back gets to raise it!"
"Besides..." Gu Yunran looked at Lu Qingzhou with a cold expression, "Isn't it because you, my husband, are impotent that I haven't had sex for three years?"
In her previous life, she took the blame for Lu Qingzhou all her life. In this life, she wanted to let everyone in the world know that Lu Qingzhou was impotent.
"Gu Yunran!" Madam Lu's face was gloomy. "Don't spread rumors and cause trouble!"
If Qingzhou is impotent, where did this grandson come from?
Gu Yunran blinked her eyes. "Oh, so my husband lied to me. My husband, do you have any unspeakable reasons for not wanting to consummate our marriage?"
"For example, having a mistress outside."
Lu Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Gu Yunran discovered something?
Old Madam Lu's eyelids also twitched, and she looked at Gu Yunran suspiciously. Could it be that Gu Yunran knew?
wrong,
She changed her mind and realized that Fan Meiniang was far away in the countryside and was well hidden by Qingzhou, so Gu Yunran should not know about it.
Madam Lu coughed lightly and said, "Alright, Yun Ran, stop making trouble."
"He was angry because he forced Qingzhou to marry you. Give him some time."
"I'm not feeling well. Please take the child away."
Madam Lu gave the order without any discussion.
The first lady looked at Gu Yunran with a gloating look and smiled secretly, while the second lady sat next to Old Madam Lu and massaged her back and shoulders, with no expression on her face.
Gu Yunran was too lazy to pay attention to Mr. Lu. She put the handkerchief to the corner of her mouth and coughed violently a few times, "Cough cough..."
She was coughing so hard that she was out of breath, and Zhuye was helping her by rubbing her back.
"Madam, please don't be anxious. You have worked hard for the Lu family for so many years. Anyone who cares about you will be grateful to you and will definitely not force you to raise someone else's child."
Old Madam Lu glared at Zhuye, wishing she could tear the little bitch's mouth apart.
Gu Yunran finally felt a little better. She covered her chest and continued, "Yes, over the years, I've been the only one who's taken care of the Lu family's food, clothing, and expenses. It's become a disease over time, and I'm also feeling very uncomfortable."
"My girls know how to be considerate of me."
She turned to look at Madam Lu, "Mother-in-law, you want someone who is considerate and considerate of her daughter-in-law, right?"
Mrs. Lu choked and didn't know how to respond.
Gu Yunran turned to look at the first and second wives and said with a smile, "I can't compare to the first and second sisters-in-law. Every day, as long as they eat, drink, have fun, and dress well, they don't need to worry about anything else, not even the children."
After three years of marriage to the Lu family, Gu Yunran took care of the first son and the second son and daughter. She was also the one who arranged for the eldest son to marry a wife. At that time, she married Lu Qingzhou. The Lu family lived in the countryside and even had difficulty getting food. She spent a lot of her dowry to marry the eldest son to a lady from a prominent city family.
She also found a way to find a good family for the second young lady to marry. The third young lady was not good at studying, so she spent a lot of money to send him to a martial arts school.
The first and second wives have been living a carefree life these years.
Gu Yunran was tired. She continued, "Mother, please give this child to your eldest or second sister-in-law to raise."
After Gu Yunran finished speaking, he stood up and left without even looking at Madam Lu's unpleasant expression. He didn't look like he was sick at all.
When the first and second wives heard this, their faces turned green and they glared at Lu Qingzhou fiercely: "You found a good wife!"
Then they each found an excuse to slip away.
Raising a child infected with smallpox, are they because they think their lives are too long?
Besides, they have been used to a carefree life for so many years, so they don’t want to raise other people’s children. Not only will it be stressful and troublesome, but there is a high probability that they will raise an ungrateful child.
Gu Yunran walked slowly, and Lu Qingzhou caught up with her in one step and grabbed her wrist.
"Gu Yunran!" Lu Qingzhou gritted his teeth. "My mother is old, and her child has smallpox. How could she take that risk?"
Gu Yunran sneered: "Your mother is afraid of being infected, so why shouldn't I be afraid too?"
She forcefully pried Lu Qingzhou's hand away, a look of disgust on her face. "Besides, Mother is old, doesn't she still have her elder and second sisters-in-law?"
