Lu Yundi took the sachet and examined it carefully, with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "Sister Ye's craftsmanship is truly ingenious. I like this sachet very much."

Nanny Yin was relieved to see that the atmosphere between the two had eased somewhat. However, she knew that this peace was only temporary, and the turmoil in Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion was far from over.

"Madam, perhaps we can find an opportunity to explain the misunderstanding between you and the Marquis." Nanny Yin said softly, trying to help Ye Wanxue out.

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, but his eyes became deep: "Misunderstandings are not necessarily true even if they are explained clearly. Some things are better left in the heart."

Ye Wanxue heard the hidden meaning of Lu Yundi's words, and her heart sank. She knew that Lu Yundi was a smart person, and since she said so, she must have her own considerations.

At this time, a maid's voice came from outside the door: "The Marquis is here."

All three of them were stunned. Ye Wanxue was nervous, Lu Yundi frowned slightly, and Nanny Yin sighed secretly.

Jiang Jilian walked into the warm room and his eyes first fell on Ye Wanxue. He looked at her slightly pale face and felt a little guilty. He turned to Lu Yundi and said, "Madam, you are here."

Lu Yundi stood up and bowed slightly: "My Lord."

Jiang Jilian walked to Ye Wanxue, patted her hand gently, and said, "You have been feeling unwell recently, so you should take a rest."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, but a hint of bitterness flashed in her eyes: "Thank you for your concern, Lord Marquis."

The four of them sat in the warm room for the rest of the time, and the atmosphere became even more awkward. Jiang Jilian looked at Ye Wanxue and then at Lu Yundi from time to time, but he felt conflicted.

Nanny Yin looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: The water in Zhenxing Marquis' Mansion is really deep.

Lu Yundi stared at the mess of cups, plates, bowls and chopsticks on the floor in amazement, and asked in surprise, "What happened?"

Ye Wanxue covered her chest with her hands, breathing rapidly, revealing an embarrassing state of being unable to breathe. "Madam, it was my carelessness. Just now, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart and mouth, and I was so flustered that I accidentally pulled off the tablecloth..."

Lu Yundi frowned, a hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes, but seeing Ye Wanxue's guilty face, she didn't want to pursue the matter any further. She sighed softly, with an undisguised worry in her tone: "Wanxue, are you okay? Did this severe pain come suddenly?"

Ye Wanxue nodded slightly, with a hint of fear in her eyes: "Madam, I am indeed feeling a little unwell. But please rest assured, I will take care of myself as soon as possible so as not to affect the affairs of the mansion." Lu Yundi nodded gently, with a hint of concern in her eyes: "If that's the case, then that's good. However, let the servants clean up the mess in this room."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I will ask the servants to come in right away." As the servants came in to clean, the atmosphere in the room gradually eased. Lu Yundi sat at the table, gently picked up a cup of tea, and slowly said: "Wanxue, you sit down too. Let's talk."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, sitting opposite Lu Yundi, with her hands on her knees, looking respectful and cautious. "Madam, what do you want to talk about?" Ye Wanxue asked softly. Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with a sharp look in her eyes: "Wanxue, you know, I don't have any ill will towards you. It's just that as the wife of the Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion, I must consider the entire mansion."

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Madam, I understand. I also know that I am of low status and dare not have any improper thoughts. However, I sincerely hope that I can spend the rest of my life in this mansion in peace and stability."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "If that's the case, then there is no conflict between us. As long as you can behave yourself, I will ensure that you live in peace in the mansion."

Upon hearing this, Ye Wanxue's eyes flashed with gratitude. She bowed slightly to show her respect: "Madam, you are so caring, I am grateful. I will definitely keep your teachings in mind and will not dare to overstep the mark."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly and gently patted Ye Wanxue's hand, her eyes full of care: "Okay, don't be so reserved all the time. We are all women and we all have our own sufferings. I hope we can understand and support each other."

Ye Wanxue nodded, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes: "Madam, you are right. I am willing to work with you to contribute to the peace of this mansion."

The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was harmonious. At this time, a maid came in, holding a plate of exquisite snacks in her hands, put it on the table, and said softly: "Madam, this is the snack that the master ordered the servants to make specially for you to taste."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, picked up a piece of dessert, took a bite, and then handed it to Ye Wanxue: "This dessert tastes good, you can try it too."

Ye Wanxue took the snack, took a bite, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "This tastes really good, thank you, ma'am."

The two continued their conversation while enjoying the snacks.

Lu Yundi said softly, "Wanxue, do you know? When I married the Marquis of Zhenxing, he was still a child who had not experienced much of the world. At that time, he only knew how to play and did not know how to consider the family. It was me who guided him step by step and made him a responsible marquis."

Ye Wanxue nodded gently, with a trace of respect in her eyes: "Madam, you are really amazing. You can make the Marquis grow from a child into a responsible man. What a talent it is."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes: "Yes, I also think I am great. My husband and I are in harmony, and my children are filial. This is the happiest time of my life."

As he spoke, Lu Yundi took out a portrait from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Wanxue: "This is what the Marquis and I looked like when we were young. We were so loving back then."

Ye Wanxue took the portrait and looked at the two people in the painting. A hint of emotion flashed in her eyes: "Madam, you and the Marquis really look like a couple. It can be seen that you are really happy."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes: "Yes, we were carefree back then, and only thought about each other. But now, I not only have to take care of the Marquis, but also the entire mansion. I can no longer be as selfish as before."

Ye Wanxue nodded gently, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Madam, don't worry, I will do my best to help you take care of everything in the mansion."

......

As Ye Wanxue listened to the heartwarming picture that Lu Yundi painted of a harmonious couple and filial children, her face became increasingly paler and solemn.

His hands were pressed tightly against his chest, and his chest rose and fell as his breathing became more intense.

Ye Wanxue's eyes were slightly closed, as if she was trying to calm her inner turmoil.
