Su Yunzhu was silent. There was nothing to be seen from this scene.

She waved her hand and said, "This servant has served you loyally enough, there is no need to do this."

Ji Shichen looked at her and smiled calmly, "As long as Madam likes it, anything is fine."

Today's lady is very special. She even knows how to be considerate of him.

Ah Ping was still shivering on the ground. Ji Shichen turned his head and said coldly, "Why don't you thank Madam?"

Ah Ping flinched and kowtowed quickly, "Thank you, Madam, for your magnanimity. I will be more careful in the future."

"Is this okay?" Ji Shichen asked.

Su Yunzhu hummed, her eyes calm and she said nothing more.

The two of them waited quietly like this for a while, and Ji Shichen kept staring at her, unable to see through her intention of coming today.

"Madam, do you have anything else to ask?" Ji Shichen couldn't help but ask.

Su Yunzhu was stunned for a moment, then recovered and said, "It's all right. Goodbye."

After saying this, she turned and left with her maid.

Ji Shichen looked at her back, and his calm mood fluctuated slightly.

The courtyard returned to silence. As soon as they left the courtyard, a guard quietly appeared in front of Ji Shichen!

Ji Shichen said in a cold tone, "Why is Madam so abnormal today?"

The guard Bu Feng reported the scene outside the East Garden truthfully, and the servant A Ping was shocked!

Ji Shichen's brows slowly relaxed, and strange thoughts emerged in his eyes.

Such a thing could happen!

"Yes, my lord. Do we still need to keep an eye on the madam?" Bu Feng said with a cold face and bowed.

Ji Shichen narrowed his eyes slightly and paused for words, "Continue to pay attention to her actions, don't miss a single thing!"

"Yes."

……

Su Yunzhu returned to her own courtyard and, feeling bored, went to Huo Yudi's residence in Xiyuan.

In the West Garden, Huo Yudi was in a trance. Her maid Zhizhi checked her injuries and found nothing serious, just some bruises. She then changed her clothes for her.

Soon, Su Yunzhu came over with Taohong. Before she saw the person, she heard his voice, "Yu Di!"

Huo Yudi was shocked, and quickly asked Zhizhi to put on the silver hairpin, then got up and went out to greet him!

"How's going, mother-in-law?" Huo Yudi bowed respectfully to Su Yunzhu.

A bottle of medicine was handed over, and Su Yunzhu said, "Take it. I asked Taohong to find it for you. Shi Feng was a ruthless person, so don't take it to heart."

"I've sent people to check. He's in the ancestral hall and can't get out. He can't cause any trouble."

"From now on, live your life in peace."

Huo Yudi was terrified after hearing this heartfelt confession. She continued to bow and said humbly, "I'm sorry, mother-in-law. If there is anything wrong with me, please point it out. I will repent as soon as possible."

Her mother-in-law's behavior today was too abnormal, and Huo Yudi was still panicked at the moment.

Huo Yudi can still vividly remember how her mother-in-law Su Yunzhu treated her over the past year, as if it were just yesterday!

Seeing this, Su Yunzhu stuffed the medicine bottle into Zhizhi, the maid beside her, and then personally lifted up Huo Yudi's hands, pulled her to the chair and said:

"You did nothing wrong. It's all my fault. I've made you suffer so much over the past year. You don't need to repent. I'll need you to take care of this family from now on."

Huo Yudi was both happy and nervous. She said respectfully, "My daughter-in-law is not suffering. This is what I should do."

Su Yunzhu breathed a sigh of relief. The more she looked at Huo Yudi, the more she liked her. This daughter-in-law was a good choice!

Although she was born into a military family, she was not arrogant and aggressive. She was humble, well-mannered and well-behaved. If she had not been heartbroken by Ji Shifeng over the years, she would never have divorced him so easily.

As long as she can stabilize Huo Yudi's heart, life in the Marquis' Mansion will be good.

As for that adopted son Ji Shifeng, let him go wherever is cooler!

Dare to kick her daughter-in-law? Su Yunzhu was so distressed.

Su Yunzhu pulled Huo Yudi's arm and looked her up and down. She had changed her clothes and it was hard to tell what she looked like.

Su Yunzhu only remembered that Ji Shifeng seemed to kick her left shoulder!

She gently stroked Huo Yudi's left shoulder and asked, "Is the injury here serious? Would you like me to take a look?"

Huo Yudi was flattered and quickly gathered her robes and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. Zhizhi checked it for me just now and it's nothing serious."

The maid Zhizhi immediately said, "Yes, Madam Hou, don't worry."

"Okay." Su Yunzhu had no choice but to give up.

Zhizhi served the two of them warm tea for their masters to enjoy.

Su Yunzhu supported her chin with her hand and stared at Huo Yudi's face calmly. She was a pretty little beauty. It was damnable that her adopted son gave up his decent and beautiful wife and insisted on having an affair with another wild flower outside!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Looking at Huo Yudi's nervous face, she suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "Yudi, if you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me and I will take care of it for you!"

"If Ji Shifeng dares to bully you again, I will not let him off!"

Huo Yudi listened to Su Yunzhu's words and felt that there was something else behind them, but she looked so sincere that Huo Yudi was moved.

She knelt down, tears in her eyes, and said, "Thank you, mother-in-law!"

"My daughter-in-law hasn't done anything this past year, so it's great to have your protection."

"It's just that my daughter-in-law doesn't know that the prince just mentioned the matter of taking a concubine. Why did you punish him to go to the ancestral hall?"

Huo Yudi was still suspicious, doubting Su Yunzhu's intentions!

She had heard about the feud between the Marquis and his wife before she got married. After she got married, she had to endure a year of harshness and difficulties from his wife. She was ready to get used to it.

But I didn't expect that my mother-in-law was so abnormal today!

When questioned, Su Yunzhu groaned and explained, "He was the first to ruin our family tradition. You are right. A prostitute like Lin Ying'er cannot enter our mansion, not even as a concubine."

Huo Yudi was still puzzled, "But after all, the prince likes her, and I, as his daughter-in-law, will not hinder him from taking a concubine. As long as I am his legal wife, it will be fine. Since he likes Lin Ying'er, I can be his maid."

"This way, it will be more reasonable for my father-in-law to hold me accountable."

The current Huo Yudi is full of loyalty and consideration for the Marquis' Mansion. She is filial to her father-in-law and mother-in-law, respects her husband and manages the Marquis' Mansion well, leaving nothing behind.

This was what she should do as the mistress of the Marquis's mansion. Not long after she entered the mansion, her mother-in-law gave her a key to the storehouse. Although there was not much money in it and she still needed her dowry to supplement it, it meant that her mother-in-law recognized her.

Although Huo Yudi had some complaints in her heart, she was willing to bear it for the sake of her family.

Su Yunzhu felt very uncomfortable after hearing these words!

She lowered her eyes and thought carefully, then said calmly, "Do you really want the prince to have a concubine? You have only been married for a year."

Huo Yudi said ashamedly, "Except for the day when the prince came to the room, he was just drunk, and we never...consummated the marriage."

As she said this, she looked at Su Yunzhu's expression carefully!

"So what? If the marriage is not consummated, then it is not consummated. This is not an excuse for him to find out for himself."

Su Yunzhu said coldly, this adopted son is such a scumbag.
