As long as the father is determined to separate the family, there is nothing the old lady can do to him.

Shen Wan walked towards Qinglan Garden in a happy mood.

Inside the Buddhist hall.

The second wife and the third wife were kneeling on the futon, their faces looking uglier than the other.

After so many years, the sisters-in-law were somewhat dissatisfied with each other, but at least they were harmonious on the surface. Especially in front of the old lady, they had a deep love for each other.

I didn't expect that one day they would have a big fight.

If the old lady hadn't given them harsh words, expelling her from the Marquis Mansion if she dared to take action again, and sending someone to guard the door, the two of them would have been so quiet and ignored each other, and they would have started fighting long ago.

The second wife will not allow anyone to harm the child in Hongkui's belly. After making such a big fuss today, the third wife will probably not dare to do so in the future. She can even scratch Mrs. Hua's face to make the baby disappear if she just has fetal gas. , she will really fight the third wife.

The third wife thought that the third wife was not worth it. In order for Shen Ying to secure her position as the royal concubine of the Jin Dynasty, her daughter moved in. She thought that the second wife would be the last to win, so it was the third wife's turn to do those good things, but then a pregnant maid appeared again. , did not make the third wife angry to death.

The unmarried young master of Pingyang Hou Mansion got the maid next to him pregnant. If this matter was to be spread, it would not be possible for the other young masters of the Hou Mansion to marry him.

The two children in the second bedroom are really the bane of the Hou family. They cause harm to others while they are alive, and drag them down even after they die.

The third wife had a long face.

After kneeling for a long time, her knees were sore. The third wife moved her futon, and a little maid came in. She was the same maid who had been eavesdropping in the alleyway before.

The little maid came forward, leaned into the ear of the third wife, and told the third wife word for word what she had just heard.

The third wife was stunned at first, then her lips curled up, and she ordered the little maid, "Go and guard the door, don't let anyone come in."

After the little maid exited, the third wife stopped kneeling and stood up. Then she looked at the second wife and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't kneel either. Today's incident should be treated as if nothing happened."

As if it never happened?

The second wife said coldly, "If the child in Hongkui's belly can't be saved, I'm not done with you."

The third wife laughed, "It seems that the second sister-in-law is still kept in the dark."

The second wife frowned, "Why are you kept in the dark?"

"The child in Hongkui's belly is not Li'er's."

The third wife’s voice echoed in the Buddhist hall.

The second wife's face changed drastically, "What are you talking about?!"

"Hongkui is the maid in Li'er's yard. The child in her belly is not Li'er's, who else could it be?!"

She still doesn't know the son she gave birth to.

Hongkui has long been her son's, how could the thing she is carrying in her belly not be her son's? !

Seeing the determination on the second wife's face, the third wife was really upset in her heart, but there was a saying that was completely unfounded, and even if it was false, she would be able to calm down the second wife when she said it.

The third wife said, "I heard that Hongkui came out of the second master's study in disheveled clothes a month ago..."

The second wife's heart was suffocated, as if she had been hit by a hammer, and her anger rushed straight from the bottom of her heart to Tianling Gai, "It's not enough for you to harm the child in Hong Kui's belly, but you also want to ruin my master's reputation?!"

The second wife's voice was sharp, and the third wife was really a little scared, but she was not afraid of the second wife, but the old lady.

If the old lady knew that she had ruined the second master's reputation, she would never let her off lightly.

The third wife said, "Father and son favored a maid. It is not just the second master's reputation that will be ruined by spreading the word. The reputation of the Hou family is also ruined. I know this cannot be said casually. Even if it is true, the old lady will not take it lightly if she knows it." Forgive me, I just told the second sister-in-law what the maid just reported to me because of my sister-in-law's many years and couldn't bear to keep the second sister-in-law in the dark. As for whether she believes it or not, that is the second sister-in-law's business. "

"Whether the child in Hongkui's belly belongs to the second master or the second young master, it doesn't matter to my third wife."

It's the same for the third wife, but not for the second wife.

The second wife's face was full of anger, but she didn't know what happened, and her face turned pale again.

She stood up in a panic, but she got up too quickly and fell back onto the futon. The third wife helped her.

The second wife stood up and hurried out regardless of the pain in her knees.

The messy steps made the third wife raise her eyebrows.

Could it be that the child in Hongkui's belly really belongs to the second master?

If this were true, it would be too much fun.

Outside the Buddhist hall, the mother-in-law sent by the old lady to watch over the second wife and the third wife saw that the second wife left the hall without permission, and hurriedly came to dissuade her. The second wife became angry, pushed the mother-in-law away, and walked away. .

The second wife was so angry that she wanted to kill someone.

She knew that the third wife told her this out of gloating. What she was trying to protect was not her little grandson, but a concubine. She didn't want to be fooled by the third wife, as the third wife wanted, but she had not forgotten a month ago. , Hongkui reported something related to her and Li'er. Because it was a good thing, she wanted the master to praise Li'er, so when Hongkui left, she asked Hongkui to go to the study to report to the second master.

Hongkui went to see the second master a month ago, and the time was right. Moreover, the second master and his colleagues drank a lot that day...

The more the second wife thought about it, the more uneasy she became. Her heart was more messy and anxious than her steps.

Shen Wan came back from taking things from Qinglan Garden. When passing by the garden, she happened to see the second wife walking towards the south courtyard. She was walking so hurriedly. She must have heard what she wanted her to hear.

Unfortunately, it was getting late and she had to go back to Prince Ling's Mansion and couldn't stay to watch the excitement.

Yinshuang also wanted to see the excitement first-hand, she said, "Why don't we leave Dong'er here and let her go back later?"

Shen Wan said, "It's useless for her to stay."

It is related to the reputation of the second master, no, it is related to the reputation of the entire Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Not only the old lady will give a hush order, but even the father will not allow even a word of it to be spread out of the manor.

Dong'er couldn't find out about such a secret thing, so it was useless to leave it behind.

But Dong'er can't do it, but Chen Yu can.

Xie Jingyan couldn't accompany her back to the Hou Mansion, and he was worried about it, so he sent an extra secret guard to protect her. She could keep Chen Yu behind to help her listen to the gossip.

She is so witty.

Chen Yu, "..."

Could the princess give some thought to his identity as a secret guard?

Asking a secret guard to leave her business behind and stay in the Marquis's mansion to help her listen to gossip is not overkill, it is just burning firewood.

The secret guard was very tired and did not dare not to do as he was told.

Shen Wan left the Pingyang Marquis Mansion with a look of reluctance. She was tempted by the gossip and was reluctant to leave, but the gatekeeper watched with emotion. My aunt and grandma couldn't bear to leave the Marquis Mansion. It's a pity that the Marquis was busy with military affairs and her aunt and grandma came back. I couldn't see Mr. Hou even after many trips.

Shen Wan and the two maids got into the carriage and returned to Prince Ling's Mansion.

When she returned to Mo Yuxuan and finished drinking a cup of tea, the window was clicked. Shen Wan guessed that Chen Yu was back, so she quickly put down the tea cup in her hand, got up and walked towards the window.

Opening the window, it turned out to be Chen Yu.

Shen Wan couldn't wait to ask, "How?"

Chen Yudao, "That maid named Hongkui is indeed carrying the second master's child..."

Although Shen Wan was mentally prepared, she still couldn't believe it when she heard it.

The second master is so hungry that he is not selective about food, even touching his own son's people.

Chen Yu told Shen Yuan exactly what he overheard from the second room.

The second wife hurried back to the south courtyard from the Buddhist hall. Instead of looking for the second master, she went to ask Hongkui. When she went there, Hongkui was drinking anti-fetal medicine.

The second wife sent away the maid who was serving Hongkui, and then asked Hongkui whose child she was carrying.

Hongkui's face turned pale when the second wife asked her, and the second wife's heart also fell to the bottom.

What she wanted to conceive was her son's flesh and blood. Hongkui's face would not turn pale. If her face turned pale, it must be because of her guilty conscience.

The second wife’s nails scratching the third wife’s face could not feel any pain when they dug into her flesh. She asked, “Whose child is this in your belly?!”

Hongkui refused to admit it at first and insisted that the child was the second young master's. The second wife said, "You are still stubborn now. Do you want me to slap you before you tell the truth?!"

Hongkui knew the second wife's methods. The second wife even dared to scratch the third wife's face, let alone scolding her as a maid.

She refused to say anything, and the second wife was also unequivocal, and immediately asked someone to come into the house and drag her out.

Hongkui was frightened and did not dare to tell the truth. When Hongkui said that the child in her belly was the second master's, the second wife's strength seemed to have been taken away from her, and she almost collapsed to the ground in anger.

Tears welled up, and the second wife's face became ferocious.

She had protected Hongkui before, but now she wanted to tear Hongkui alive.

Hongkui's child was conceived that time when the second wife asked her to report the matter to the second master. That day, the second master was drunk and couldn't stand still, so she helped him, and he took the child without saying a word. He carried her to the small couch and forced her.

Normally, the second young master favors the maid, and the mother in charge will feed the maid medicine to prevent pregnancy. No one knows about her and the second master. She is not a maid who dares to go out of the house to buy medicine. She is lucky and thinks she will not get pregnant...

But now it seems that it is not a bad thing. The second young master is gone, and the second master has no children. If she can give birth to a son for the second master, the second master will definitely treat her well. This is why the second wife pressed her, and Hongkui decided to do it. The reason.

The second wife was so angry that she trembled all over. She immediately called her mother-in-law in, covered Hongkui's mouth, dragged her down and killed her with a cane.

However, before the Hongkui people were dragged out, the second master rushed over. The second master came in such a timely manner because of Shen Wan. It was Shen Wan who sent people to the government office to send a message to the second master, saying that the second wife knew that Hongkui was pregnant. It is not the flesh and blood of the second young master, Hongkui must be killed with a stick.

The second master rushed back to rescue Hongkui. The second wife wanted to just deal with Hongkui, but she didn't want to hurt her relationship with the second master. She knew that the second master did such a stupid thing because he was drunk.

But the second master stopped her from disposing of Hongkui, and the second wife couldn't bear it.

She doesn't allow anyone to bully her son, not even the second master!

The second master didn't care about her and Shen Li's feelings for the sake of a maid. The second wife's reason collapsed and she started fighting with the second master.

Her nails really didn't grow in vain.

Ok.

The second wife also scratched the second master’s face.
