Catching an adulterer at the beginning, the mistress of the Marquisate went crazy

Liu Tianshu stood in front of the flowers next to the rockery, staring at the flowery garden in a daze.

When Liu Tian'ai and Gu Jinyun came out of the cave, what they saw was Liu Tianshu's peaceful appearance.

Both are women, and they are sisters who grew up together. Even though Liu Tian'ai has a face similar to Liu Tianshu's, she still can't hide the jealousy in her heart, because no matter how she pretends, she can't pretend to be as quiet and gentle as Liu Tianshu.

"Didn't your sister go to see the old lady?"

Hearing the voice, Liu Tianshu slowly turned around, with a hint of bitterness at the corner of her lips.

"I don't know how to start this conversation. Let's go see the old lady together and let you guys talk about it yourself..."

"This……"

Liu Tian'ai looked at Gu Jinyun in embarrassment.

How could a girl like her talk about something like this?

"Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything..."

Receiving the beautiful lady's gaze, Gu Jinyun patted her hand gently in a soothing manner.

"let's go……"

Not wanting to see the couple flirting with each other behind her, Liu Tianshu asked Qingshan Guanxue to support her as she walked towards the old lady's Canglan Courtyard.

Old Madam Hou is Gu Jinyun’s stepmother. She is only 40 years old this year and has given birth to two sons and one daughter.

The eldest son is twenty years old this year, and is at the age to discuss marriage. The eldest daughter is fifteen and is also looking for a husband. The youngest son is only eight years old this year. Although he is not in a hurry to discuss marriage, he has started to study.

In addition to the three legitimate children of the Hou family, there are five concubines and eight illegitimate children in the Marquis's Mansion. Some of them have reached the age of marriage and are waiting to start discussing marriage as soon as the mourning period is over.

The title of Marquis has been inherited by Gu Jinyun. The Marquis' wife's biggest dream is that both of her sons can excel through studying, marry noble ladies from prominent families, and marry her daughter off to higher status.

As for the marriages of illegitimate sons and daughters, she did not attach much importance to them. For the sake of having a good reputation, she did not intend to treat them unfairly.

What the Marquis's wife cares most about at this moment is the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion. Anyone who wants to destroy the marriage of her son and daughter is a heinous person.

The Marquis' Mansion will be in mourning in two months. She had already planned to hold a grand banquet after the mourning period and invite all the young talents and noble ladies in the capital. Naturally, she couldn't let any accidents happen at this critical juncture.

As the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, Liu Tianshu didn't want to host the banquet at all, and she didn't want to meet the Hou family unless it was necessary. However, the Hou family had to make the decision on today's matter.

Liu Tianshu did not issue a gag order regarding the garden matter. Someone had already reported it to Mrs. Hou, and someone else spread the matter throughout the mansion.

Her own son and daughter were both going to be married off. After hearing the report from the servants, the Marquis's wife was furious. She cursed Gu Jinyun and Liu Tian'ai a thousand times in her heart. When Liu Tianshu and the other two came over, her eyes were full of anger.

Knowing this would happen, Liu Tianshu didn't want to come over and make trouble. After paying her respects to Hou, she sat down on her right, wiping her eyes with a handkerchief from time to time, pretending to be aggrieved.

"Mother, the servants should have reported what happened in the yard. I will not elaborate on it. I just want you to make a decision..."

Although his stepson's wife was usually respectful to him, she handled all matters in the house in an orderly manner, leaving him with fewer things to decide.

Hou looked up at Gu Jinyun and Liu Tian'ai who were standing there quietly, and instructed a mother beside her: "Have someone prepare a bowl of contraceptive soup for the third young lady to drink."

"Old lady, I..."

When Liu Tianyi heard about the contraceptive soup, her face changed instantly. She opened her mouth to refuse, but Hou Shi said in an unquestionable voice, "There must be no mourning period children in my mansion."

"Master Hou..."

Hou's attitude was firm, and Liu Tian'ai looked at Gu Jinyun for help.

A bowl of contraceptive soup was nothing. The key point was that the piece of flesh in her stomach couldn't take it, and she absolutely couldn't let anything happen to it.

The beauty begged, and Gu Jinyun bowed and pleaded: "Mother, my third sister is not from my mansion yet, so please don't give her the contraceptive soup..."
