Chapter 134 The Marquis has become poisonous
Before Yun Qiao reached the old lady's place, she met the eldest wife, Mrs. Yu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time on the road.
Yun Qiao bowed slightly and asked if the eldest lady was well.
Unexpectedly, Yu stared at Yun Qiao and said, "You're quite scheming. You hid it so well before, and you kept it a secret from everyone in the mansion. They said you couldn't have children, and now your belly is so big."
Yun Qiao was speechless.
He walked forward on his own.
It is true that she was infertile before, but now she is indeed pregnant. Not to mention outsiders, even she would doubt it if she encountered this situation, and her previous infertility was not fake.
"Yun Qiao, don't think you can secure your position just because you're pregnant. The Marquis is going to marry a princess in the future, and once she enters the Marquis's mansion, she won't let you down."
Yun Qiao paused, she was struggling over whether or not to tell Yu.
The fake princess who was going to marry the Marquis has been involved in a lawsuit and is probably having a hard time right now.
Good fruit, she really likes to eat it.
"Don't worry, Madam."
Yun Qiao left after she finished speaking. Seeing her nonchalant look as if she didn't care about anything, Yu became even angrier.
Their eldest branch had been keeping to themselves for years, never fighting for anything, and what had become of them? They were so unwilling to even ask the Marquis to help secure a lucrative position for their eldest brother.
Pretending to be honest.
But he turned around and gave all the properties of the Marquis' Mansion to his concubine Yun Qiao.
The eldest lady was also going to the old lady's place. She happened to meet Yun Qiao on the way and said a few words to her. After being angered by Yun Qiao's indifference, the eldest lady almost forgot that she also wanted to see the old lady.
"This Yun Qiao is really getting more and more arrogant. I want to see how long her arrogance lasts."
"That's right. Once Princess Hua Chao enters the Marquis' Mansion, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Yun Qiao to raise the child in her belly. Madam, don't think too much. The old lady has valued you very much over the years." The maid in front of her flattered her.
"What do you value? If you value me, why would you not hand over the power of the Marquisate to me? The old lady is already so old, yet she still wants to hold on to it. I think she is just waiting for the Marquis to get married so that she can hand over the power of the Marquisate to his new wife."
"The Princess Huachao is not someone who is easy to get along with. Before she enters the Marquisate, our eldest wife should make plans for herself first."
That useless Mrs. Cai's health deteriorated after she gave birth to a child. Not only was the child sick, she herself was also sick.
The eldest lady invited her niece from her mother's side, saying that she wanted her to stay for a few days, but in fact she wanted to marry her to her son and have him be his second wife.
The eldest lady was a calculating person, so how could she not have thought that after the Marquis got married, if the bride was intolerant, she would naturally divide their family.
When dividing the family, only those with people at home can get a larger share.
Still want a bastard.
When her niece gave birth to a child, she would raise the child directly under Cai's name. Cai was in the wrong because of her poor body and could not give birth to a healthy child. But she still listened to her and did whatever she told her to do. Otherwise, she would let her son divorce her.
The eldest lady had made up her mind and wanted to tell the old lady today so that she could bring her niece to stay with her for a while.
The eldest lady followed Yun Qiao's steps and arrived.
Yun Qiao had just bowed to the old lady when she was helped up by Mama Chang who was sitting beside the old lady.
"Now that Concubine Qiao is pregnant, there's no need to perform this grand ceremony."
"Sit down and talk," the old lady said calmly. "I just called that girl over to ask some questions, but you're so worried you've come here with your big belly. So, your previous infertility was indeed fake?"
Yun Qiao was about to sit down, but immediately stood up.
"In reply to what the old lady said, it was indeed true that Qiao Niang had a cold before. I didn't lie to you in the slightest. To be honest, Qiao Niang was born into a good family and was raised by her parents. She never asked to be a concubine. If she hadn't had a cold and no way to marry, she wouldn't have entered the Marquis's mansion as a concubine."
"My Lord is very good to me, and I am content with what I have said, but I am also telling the truth."
"If you don't believe me, go find my uncle Chen Ruhai now. He knows exactly how I caught the cold."
Xiao Tao, who was kneeling below, cried and said, "Old Madam, everything my aunt said is true. When my aunt was still a girl in the Chen family, her period came late, at the age of thirteen. It was still the coldest time of the year when it first came. But my uncle's daughter insisted on dragging my aunt to see the ice lantern exhibition. Because of her, my aunt fell into the water, and because we didn't call a doctor for treatment, the cold air entered her body, and she contracted a cold syndrome and can't have children anymore."
Xiao Tao had just finished speaking when she heard a voice coming from outside the door.
"Why doesn't Auntie go in? What are you standing outside the door listening for?"
After Chen Jingyan finished speaking, he quickly walked in and looked at his grandmother sitting on the chair. He said softly, "Grandma, if you want to ask anything, just ask me. Qiao Niang is pregnant now, so it's not easy for her to move around."
The old lady frowned and curled her lips, "Look at you protecting it like an eyeball, as if no one has ever been pregnant. All women have to get pregnant, how can they be so precious."
"Grandmother doesn't know that Aunt Qiao is pregnant with twins."
Chen Jingyan spoke to his grandmother in a low voice.
The old lady's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Really? Are you telling the truth?"
"When has Sanlang ever lied to your grandmother?" Chen Jingyan turned and walked to the chair beside Yun Qiao, signaling her to sit down with his eyes.
Yun Qiao nodded slightly and sat down.
At this time, I saw the eldest lady coming in from outside.
"Congratulations, mother! Sanlang's family is finally going to have a new baby. It's a pity that he's not born to the legitimate mother, but a bastard. But a bastard is also good. At least it dispels the rumors that our Sanlang is in poor health."
This aunt-in-law always speaks in a very unpleasant way.
Chen Jingyan frowned and said, "Auntie is becoming more and more tactless in her words and actions. She even says things without thinking. It seems that my cousin's ability to think without thinking was passed down to you, Auntie."
After hearing this, Yun Qiao was also surprised by Chen Jingyan's sharp tongue.
She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed softly. She wanted to laugh but it wasn't funny.
I really can't hold it anymore.
"Sanlang, what you said is true. Auntie said this for your own good. You haven't married a wife yet, but your auntie is pregnant first. Isn't this usurping the position of the eldest son?"
"Don't worry about that, aunt. I only have legitimate sons, no illegitimate children."
Yun Qiao also felt that she didn't quite understand what Chen Jingyan said.
Even if Princess Hua Chao is fake, he will marry someone else in the future. Could it be that he wants to marry her?
So, giving her a fake princess identity means that he wants to marry her legitimately and openly?
It seemed that Yun Qiao understood everything all of a sudden.
