"Of course, if you don't believe it, just wait a few days and you'll know."
Seeing that they kept talking, the Fourth Master said, "Alright, alright. Your mother just woke up and hasn't eaten yet. Go and stay with your brothers until your mother feels better before coming over."
"Father, if you want to be alone with mother, just say it directly. There's no need to say all this." Tiantian said with a pout.
Dad is really something. It wasn’t enough for them to be with Mom every day. When they finally had time to come back and just said a few words to Mom, Dad wanted to drive them away again.
"That's right~" Xuanxuan and Chenchen said in unison.
Fourth Master: “…”
Wen Mianmian covered her mouth and laughed secretly, and the Fourth Master's face looked a little ugly.
However, the three little guys were very reasonable, and since their mother really needed to rest, they didn't stay here for long.
After they left, the Fourth Master said to Tiantian, "Mianmian, look, look, these three little guys dare to talk to me like this."
Wen Mianmian pursed her lips and smiled, "They are like this because you, my master, have spoiled them."
Especially the little girl Tiantian, who is almost spoiled by the Fourth Master to the point of being lawless.
That's why this little girl is so bold.
"That's all my own fault. Looks like I need to find a martial arts master and have them practice martial arts with me. That way, they won't have any extra time to get close to you."
With these little guys here, Mianmian's mind would be on them from time to time, and he would have less time to be alone with Mianmian.
"How can the master be so childish?" Wen Mianmian felt that the Fourth Master was so adorable.
"Nonsense, how could I be childish?" The Fourth Master scolded seriously with a stern face and dissatisfaction.
"Hahaha, the master is not childish, he is manly." Wen Mianmian was so happy to see the master's appearance.
The master's original sense of majesty was now disintegrating bit by bit in Wen Mianmian's heart.
Fourth Master: “…”
Seeing her smiling so happily, the Fourth Master felt helpless.
Not long after, Nanny Song and Mother Wen came in with freshly prepared meals for pregnant women.
Wen Mianmian didn't have much appetite when she saw those things because she knew they were tasteless.
For someone who loves to savor delicious food, eating tasteless food is really unpleasant.
But she couldn't not eat, after all, several people were watching her.
The Fourth Master had dinner with Mian Mian when Su Peisheng came in and said that someone had come from the Concubine's side.
The Fourth Master frowned slightly, looked at Mianmian who was rinsing her mouth and said, "Mianmian, go over and take a look too. I'll come back to see you later."
"Well, Master, go ahead."
After the Fourth Master left, Nanny Song spoke up, "Master, what do you think Fu Jin is asking you to come over at this time?"
Nanny Song had a vague feeling that there must be something going on when the Lady asked the Master to come over, and it might even be related to the Concubine.
"Who knows." Wen Mianmian didn't think much about it and just thought it was an ordinary trivial matter.
"Madame Song, wait a minute and ask the wet nurse to finish feeding the babies and bring them over."
"Yes, I'll be there in a moment."
Main courtyard
The Fourth Master sat opposite Lady Fu Jin, turning the jade ring in his hand.
"Master, I have something I want to discuss with you."
The Fourth Master looked up at her, his expression calm and curious about what she was talking about.
Fu Jin looked at the Fourth Master's eyes, her heart tangled for a while, and she spoke again: "Didn't Sister Wen give birth to four little princes? I think Sister Wen can't take care of so many children by herself."
"I am their legal mother after all, so I want to adopt two little princes from the Wen family and register them under my name. This will also reduce the burden on Sister Wen."
The Fourth Master's expression had gradually turned ugly when he heard the previous words, and it became even uglier when he heard that she wanted to adopt two children from Mian Mian.
But Fu Jin was completely unaware and continued to daydream, "And if they are registered under my name, then they will both be legitimate sons. This will also be beneficial to them."
"Fu Jin, do you know what you are saying?" The Fourth Master frowned and stared at Fu Jin with cold eyes.
Fu Jin stood up and squatted in front of the Fourth Master. "My Lord, I know this may not be good for the Wen family, but I only have Honghui now. Sister Wen must be worried and exhausted raising so many children. I do this to share some of her burden. I also want Honghui to have more brothers."
"Besides, if the children are raised by me, as long as they marry Yudie, they will be legitimate children in the future. Isn't this also very good for them?"
Who would be willing to be a bastard? Fu Jin did this for their future, so he didn't think she was wrong.
"Ridiculous! This is your own selfish desire. Don't drag Honghui into this. If I keep you in the care of the Wen family, does that mean I'm no longer their legitimate mother, and no longer Honghui's brother?"
"To put it bluntly, it's your selfish desires that are at work. You feel that Wen has more children than you, so you're jealous and want to adopt her child and raise it with you. This not only satisfies your greed, but also allows you to use this incident to control Wen."
The Fourth Master grew up in the harem, a place full of intrigue and deception, and he has seen this kind of trick before.
Besides, he didn't want his children to go through the same thing as he did.
Children should grow up with their biological mothers. Only in this way can it be truly good for them.
Moreover, Mianmian's position was concubine, so she could raise her own children personally.
If it really happened as Fu Jin wished, and she adopted Mian Mian's children and raised them for her, then according to Fu Jin's way of raising them, these two children would study all day long just like Honghui is now.
Although studying is good, it also requires a combination of work and rest. As for Concubine Fu Jin, the Fourth Master did not see how much motherly love she gave to the eldest prince. He only saw her talking about studying in Honghui's ear all day long.
Even on his day off, he forced Honghui to study.
If he hadn't placed his own people around Honghui, no one would have imagined that Honghui worked so hard in private.
Just because he didn't tell his wife about these things doesn't mean he didn't know or didn't care.
"Master, is this how you view me? Ever since I married you, I've taken care of everything in your house, and I've been wholeheartedly thinking about you. I don't deny that I have selfish motives."
"But I never thought of using the child to restrain the Wen family. I didn't expect that in the master's heart, I would be such a person." Fu Jin's eyes were red, and she looked at the Fourth Master in disbelief.
