All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth
Chapter 170 Private Matters
Ye Wanxue was slightly stunned, then nodded seriously: "My Lord, please speak."
"You must promise that no matter what happens in the future, you will be loyal to me and the child. I don't want any more trouble in the mansion, and I don't want our children to live in strife."
Ye Wanxue's eyes were firm, and she held Jiang Jilian's hand tightly: "My Lord, I am willing to swear that no matter what happens in the future, I will be loyal to you and the child, and I will do my best to bring peace and happiness to the Jiang family."
Jiang Jilian looked at Ye Wanxue's determined eyes, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, and then he slowly stood up.
"Okay, Wanxue, I will give you a chance. But before that, you must keep a low profile and don't let the people in the mansion get hold of anything. I will find a chance to explain to the family elders and see if we can find a way to have the best of both worlds."
Ye Wanxue showed a bright smile on her face: "My Lord, I will follow your arrangements and wait patiently."
......
"You threaten me? Mom, you actually threaten me for your old lover!" Jiang Jilian said in shock.
"Lian'er, you have made your mother suffer so much!" Yu sighed helplessly.
"Lian'er, do you know? Since your father passed away, there has not been a peaceful day in this mansion. The old lady passed away, and you didn't know how to handle the funeral, which caused people in the mansion to talk about it, and now such a scandal has occurred." Yu put down the teacup and glanced at Jiang Ji Lian sharply.
Jiang Jilian clenched his teeth and tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Mom, I know I'm not capable enough, but I'm trying my best. Why can't you give me some time and let me take it slowly?" Jiang Jilian tried to gain his mother's understanding.
Yu sneered, "Time? Lian'er, how much time do you think the elders in the mansion will give you? Will they watch you ruin this mansion step by step? If you can't restore the reputation of the mansion as soon as possible, they will find someone else to inherit the title of marquis."
Jiang Jilian's face turned paler and paler.
"Mother, I understand. I will deal with this matter as soon as possible and invite Madam back home." Jiang Jilian said in a deep voice.
Yu shook her head and said, "Lian'er, do you think that inviting Lu Yundi back will solve the problem? You are wrong. This matter has caused a great uproar in the city. If you cannot handle it properly, even if you invite Lu Yundi back, you will not be able to restore the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion."
Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, with a gleam of determination in his eyes: "Mom, I will find a way to solve it. As for your old lover, I can't accept him living here."
Yu's face suddenly turned gloomy, and she glared at Jiang Jilian: "Lian'er, are you contradicting me?
Jiang Jilian took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm: "Mother, I am the Marquis of the Marquisate, and I have the responsibility to protect the reputation of the Marquisate. If your old lover lives here, it will only damage the reputation of the Marquisate further."
Yu slammed the table angrily: "Lian'er, are you threatening me?"
Jiang Jilian smiled slightly: "Mom, you can understand it this way. I just hope you can understand my position."
Yu's expression changed constantly. She pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Lian'er, what you said makes sense. I will consider your opinion. But you must also promise me to deal with Lu Yundi's matter as soon as possible and restore the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion."
Jiang Jilian nodded: "Mom, I will."
Yu looked at her son, a hint of relief flashing in her eyes.
"Lian'er, you must remember that the reputation of the Marquisate is more important than anything else. If you cannot shoulder this responsibility, this marquisate will not last long." Yu's words echoed in Jiang Jilian's ears.
Jiang Jilian stood there, watching his mother's back disappear out the door.
......
Jiang Jilian took Ye Wanxue as his concubine and made a big fuss about it, as if he was afraid that outsiders would not know about it. He even spent money to have people publicize it.
"Mom, that's my personal matter. Everyone in the mansion knows about it, and I have never thought of hiding it." Jiang Jilian tried his best to make his voice sound calm.
Yu snorted coldly, "Private affairs? Lian'er, do you think your every move will not affect the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion? What you are doing is slapping the face of the Marquis' Mansion."
"Mom, I know I was wrong, but I have made my decision and I will not change it." Jiang Jilian said in a firm tone.
Yu's eyes widened and she glared at Jiang Jilian: "Are you challenging my bottom line? Lian'er, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are the Marquis?"
Jiang Jilian took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "Mom, I understand your concerns, but I also have my own difficulties. I didn't consider Ye Wanxue's matter, but I don't think it is a shame for the Marquis' Mansion."
Yu sneered, "Don't think so? Lian'er, look at what you have become now? Look at how the people in the mansion view you."
Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Mother, I know that people in the mansion are talking about me, and I know that they have opinions about me. But I don't want to change myself because of other people's eyes. I know that doing this may damage the reputation of the mansion, but I am willing to take this responsibility."
Yu was so angry that she was shaking all over: "You...are you forcing me?"
Jiang Jilian shook his head slightly: "Mom, I'm just sticking to my principles. I know you have high expectations of me, and I've been working hard. But I can't go against my own wishes."
Yu looked at Jiang Jilian, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she sighed: "Lian'er, do you know why I brought my old lover back?"
Jiang Jilian frowned: "Mom, I don't understand."
Yu patted the table lightly and said, "After your father passed away, this mansion lost its backbone. I need an experienced person to help you and help you consolidate the position of the mansion."
Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, and a glimmer of understanding flashed in his eyes: "Mom, do you want me to marry her?"
Yu nodded: "Yes, Lian'er. I know this may be difficult for you to accept, but I promise that she is a smart and experienced woman. She can help you manage the Marquis' Mansion and help you restore the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion."
"Mom, give me some time to think about it carefully." Jiang Jilian said slowly.
Yu sighed, "Okay, Lian'er. I'll give you some time, but you have to make a decision as soon as possible. Because the elders in the mansion are already dissatisfied with me."
"Lian'er, I know this is a difficult decision for you, but you have to understand that the interests of the Marquis' Mansion are above all else. When your father was alive, he always put the glory of the Marquis' Mansion first, and I hope you can inherit his will." Yu said in a firm tone.
Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment. He looked up at his mother with a gleam of determination in his eyes. "Mom, I will consider it. But there is one thing I must make clear first. I cannot accept expelling Ye Wanxue from the Marquis' Mansion. Although she is my concubine, she is also a member of the Marquis' Mansion. I cannot betray my feelings because of her."
Yu's face darkened. She took a deep breath and tried to persuade her son: "Lian'er, sometimes feelings require sacrifice. For the sake of the Marquis' Mansion and your father's spirit in heaven, you must make a wise choice."
