Chapter 147: Why are you stopping?
Seeing the old lady beating her chest and stamping her feet, Lu Rong hurried forward to support her, "Mom, don't blame yourself. It's not your fault. It's all your son's fault."
It was he who fell in love with Wang and insisted on marrying her.
The old lady took a deep breath and told Lu Zhiyi, "Go, bring the child here, so that she won't have any such thoughts."
It's bad enough that he's snatching his son from his wife, but now he's even suspecting his own grandson.
I am getting more confused as I get older!
If she sits back and does nothing today, who knows what trouble might arise.
Not long after, the wet nurse came to the study carrying Lu Kang. The little guy had just finished his feeding and was now sleeping soundly.
Although Wang suspected the child's identity, she couldn't help but stretch her neck to look at the little guy as soon as she held him in her arms. Her eyes were fixed on the child's little face, trying to find similarities between the little guy and Lu Zhiyi.
But she was soon disappointed.
This child has nothing in common with Yier.
She became more and more certain of her guess in her heart that this child must have been brought back from outside and was definitely not Yi'er's blood!
She immediately looked at Zhou anxiously, "Mother, this child..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhou made the final decision, "This child is the blood of my Lu family, there is no doubt about it!"
"No, that's impossible!" Wang shook her head. "Is mother confused? Look, this child doesn't look like Yi'er at all."
Zhou glared at her coldly and waved to the wet nurse to bring the child over.
She carefully opened the swaddling clothes and exposed the child's ears.
Although the little guy has a pitifully small face, his earlobes are big and he looks very blessed.
"The big earlobes show that I am from the Lu family!"
When Zhou finished speaking, Wang was stunned and subconsciously looked at Lu Rong and Lu Zhiyi. Both father and son had big earlobes.
She knew this.
The little guy's ears are not similar to those of the father and son, they are exactly the same.
This alone cannot be wrong.
"It is said that a son resembles his mother. Kang'er looks like Lanyin. What's the problem?" Zhou added.
Wang then looked carefully at the little guy in the nurse's arms. In fact, it was hard to tell who a baby who was just a few days old looked like. But this child was different. His eyebrows and eyes looked very much like Ye Lanyin.
She didn't pay attention just now, so she didn't see it.
So, this child is really Yi'er and Ye Lanyin's biological son?
Giving birth in July, and actually... surviving, this is simply incredible!
"As expected of a child of the Lu family, you are blessed with good fortune!" She glared at Lu Zhiyi and said, "Yier, this is a great thing. Why didn't you tell mother earlier?"
"My son tells you, do you believe it?"
Wang's face suddenly turned red when she thought about how she had been doubting Lu Kang's identity.
She pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly and said, "This is about the bloodline of my mansion, so we must be cautious. I did this for your own good, you won't blame me, will you..."
As she spoke, she seemed to have thought of something, and her brows suddenly became sharp, "Was it Ye Lanyin? Was it her who gave you the idea to deliberately make mother doubt the identity of the child..."
"Shut up!"
Zhou couldn't stand it any longer and started to scold, "It's obviously you who is looking for trouble. Why are you putting the blame on Lan Yin? Zhixing and Zhihe have been disturbed by you. Do you want to separate Yier from his wife and children?"
Wang's face turned pale, "Mother..."
"Lan Yin is such a good girl, why can't you tolerate her?" Zhou was so angry that her face turned blue and she almost choked. "Don't you think about what Yi Er would be like now if it weren't for Lan Yin?"
"I am putting this out there today. If he doesn't treat Lan Yin well, I will be the first one to disagree!"
"Don't worry, grandma. I will treat Lan Yin well." Lu Zhiyi promised.
He is where he is today, thanks to Lan Yin.
This is a good marriage arranged for him by his grandmother, he must cherish it.
Zhou patted his hands, signaling him to have someone take the child away. After dealing with the child's identity, she looked at Wang again, "Do you know you are wrong?"
"Daughter-in-law, I know I was wrong." Wang lowered her head and looked submissive, not daring to breathe.
"Since you know your mistake, you should live in the small Buddhist temple from now on, eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures, pray for the blessing of our country, and don't come out unless it is necessary."
When Wang heard that Zhou was going to lock her up, she immediately became anxious and said, "No, I won't go."
She knelt down step by step to Zhou's feet, "Mother, I will never dare to do that again. Please don't let me go to the small Buddhist temple. I am still young and cannot be trapped there for the rest of my life. Besides, the Second Master also needs someone to serve him..."
As she spoke, she tugged at Lu Rong's clothes and said, "Second Master, please say something!"
"Isn't Zhixing's wife younger than you? She was able to live in the small Buddhist temple for five years, so why can't you?" Zhou's face was stern. "As for the second son, you don't have to worry. I will send someone to take care of him."
Hearing this, Wang's heart suddenly sank.
This old thing wants to take a concubine for her husband, but she doesn't agree!
She looked at the man beside her sadly, "Second Master, don't you care about the love we have had as husband and wife for so many years?"
Lu Rong avoided her gaze and said, "You should listen to your mother on this matter."
Wang was heartbroken.
She bit her lip and looked at Lu Zhiyi. She couldn't rely on her husband, but she still had her son.
Unexpectedly, before she could even open her mouth, Lu Zhiyi bowed to Zhou and said, "Grandson thanks you on behalf of my mother."
Hearing this, Wang almost vomited blood.
Her eyes instantly turned red, and she glared at Lu Zhiyi angrily, "Yier, you can't just ignore your mother!"
"When I first gave birth to you, your fetal position was not right. I tried for three days and three nights but couldn't deliver you. The midwife and the doctor advised me to give up, but I couldn't bear it. Because of you, I almost lost half my life. How can you be so unfilial!"
"You all don't care about me. What's the point of me living? I don't want to live anymore..." She suddenly stood up from the ground and rushed straight to the corner of the table.
Lu Rong frowned, "Madam..."
"Don't bother with her!" Seeing Lu Rong trying to pull her over, Zhou shouted angrily.
The second wife of the Duke's Mansion actually started crying, making a fuss and even threatening to hang herself.
If they were controlled by her, the Duke's Mansion would become a joke.
Seeing Lu Rong let go, Wang was suddenly stunned.
She was just pretending, and now that he didn't care, was she really going to crash into him?
In the moment when she was distracted, an old and majestic voice came from behind her, "Why don't you make trouble?"
"Look at what you have done to the Second House. Yi'er and the others are living people, not objects in your hands!" Zhou closed her eyes and ordered behind her, "Take them away!"
Seeing the burly old woman approaching her, Wang was completely in despair.
She looked at Lu Rong and Lu Zhiyi with grievance and anger, "You, you really don't care about me anymore..."
With Zhou locking Wang up in the small Buddhist temple, the farce finally came to an end.
Lu Rong originally wanted to plead for Wang, but he couldn't resist the gentle temptation.
Within a few days, he had forgotten about Wang.
Zhou has always been decisive and ruthless, so she can no longer rely on her son. Now the future of the Duke's Mansion depends entirely on her grandson, and she must not let Wang ruin him!
