Faced with the questioning look from the old lady, Zi Yan admitted her mistake and said to Fu Wenxuan, "I'm sorry, it was all my fault. I lit incense in the child's room."
"When I came to the Marquis Mansion, I was afraid that the children wouldn't adapt, so I planned to light the incense I used before, but the incense I used before was gone. I thought there would be no problem with using such incense, but I didn't expect it would be bad for the children."
In the past, all the fragrances had natural fruity fragrances, which were made from peels and were good for children.
The incense used by adults is to soothe the mood and even help sleep.
Fu Wenxuan said quickly: "This is my mistake. I had people deliver the incense before, and I will take care of the affairs of Qingyu Pavilion. Don't worry, I will definitely not treat you and the child badly."
Zi Yan looked touched: "Master Hou, you are so kind to me. How can I let you treat me like this?"
The old lady looked on, feeling particularly uncomfortable. Maybe the mother was a little possessive of her son, seeing her son being so attentive to a woman.
Forget about the daughter-in-law, this Zi Yan is just a humble concubine, not even a concubine, just an outlaw.
The old lady suddenly spoke up, breaking the charming atmosphere between the two of them, "I was wondering if Zi Yan couldn't take care of so many children by herself. I thought it would be better if someone helped take care of them."
If it were before, the old lady must have let the three children follow Zi Yan for the sake of the three children. However, after some things happened, in just two days, the old lady felt that Zi Yan was a good troublemaker. people of things.
The key is that she likes to tease Fu Wenxuan to achieve her goals.
No one likes his son to be a knife in someone else's hands.
I'm afraid that one day this knife will be inserted into the old lady's body.
She was a little scared.
To put it bluntly, the entire Hou Mansion depends on Fu Wenxuan and belongs to Fu Wenxuan.
Fu Wenxuan is the pillar of the Hou family.
Zi Yan looked at the old lady and seemed to know what the old lady wanted to say. She immediately said: "Old madam, I can take care of them. I have taken care of them in this way before. They have always been good."
The old lady said coldly: "Then how could I light the wrong incense for my children? How can children use incense? Their lungs haven't grown yet. What kind of incense should I light for them?"
Zi Yan said pitifully: "Old madam, I know. I won't do it again in the future. I'm sorry. It's all my fault."
Before the old lady said anything, Fu Wenxuan immediately said: "You are not wrong. If you take the child with you, you will inevitably make some mistakes. How can you not make any mistakes?"
Fu Wenxuan looked at the old lady and said, "Mom, since Zi Yan has given birth to three children and is lucky enough to take care of them, don't embarrass her too much."
Old lady:......
She felt uncomfortable holding it all in her heart. Before she could say anything, her son just said it for her.
Why did I make things difficult for her?
When the old lady was young, she met many different women. This Zi Yan acted like a concubine, but she disgusted the old lady to death.
The old lady took a deep breath and showed a forced smile, "Why would I embarrass her? She is a great contributor to the Hou Mansion. I have designated her to support her. I also want to give you a few more children in the future, so that the Hou Mansion's heirs can be given to you." Plump up.”
Fu Wenxuan also had a smile on his face. He looked at Zi Yan with ambiguous eyes, and Zi Yan's cheeks flushed shyly.
Old lady:......
She didn't want to see what happened between her son and her concubine at all.
Just in front of her, can you please stop doing this?
At this moment, the old lady felt her stomach hurt and she was angry.
But the old lady felt uncomfortable in her heart, so she had to calm down and respond. "Zi Yan is a very lucky person. She is able to give birth to children. You are all still young. You will definitely have many children in the future."
"I thought, if a child is named in Wenying's name, and if the mistress of the house has a child by her side, it will be natural for her to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future."
Not only can he inherit the Hou Mansion, but he can also inherit the official resources of the Fan family.
Just Zi Yan, what can you give your child?
As long as Wenying's name is recorded, wouldn't it be a treasured egg when it comes to the Fan family? With the support of the Fan family, the child's future will be easy.
When she heard that she was going to snatch the child, Zi Yan's face suddenly turned pale. She could not refute the old lady's words and could only look at Fu Wenxuan with heartbroken eyes.
When Fu Wenxuan was about to speak, the old lady took the lead and said to Fu Wenxuan: "Don't reject me first. Think about it carefully. The Hou family needs to have a deeper relationship with the Fan family. If the child has a maternal family like the Fan family, in the future, The road will be easier to walk.”
When it comes to Fan Wenying's name, he is Fan Wenying's child.
Fu Wenxuan's face suddenly showed emotion. After all, as a man, career is the most important thing. As a father, of course he wants to give his children better things.
It would be nice to make my son walk more smoothly and suffer less.
Fu Wenxuan's grandfather was able to marry a daughter of the Fan family, a civil servant, because Fu Wenxuan's grandfather had the courage to marry into the Fan family.
After all, as a civil servant, I have always looked down on military attachés. The reason why the Marquis has a title is because his ancestors contributed to the founding of the country.
Zi Yan was horrified when she saw Fu Wenxuan's expression. Did Fu Wenxuan really want to give her child to someone else?
She looked at Fu Wenxuan with heartbroken eyes, hoping that Fu Wenxuan would not really send the child away.
No matter who of these three children was sent away, it would undoubtedly cost her half of her life.
The old lady immediately mocked: "It will be your child's blessing to have Wenying's name in your child's name."
"What can you give your children? The old man of the Fan family is the Minister of the Ministry of War. Fan Wenying's father is now also a fourth-rank official. There are several brothers who also passed the formal imperial examination. Although their positions are low now, they have a bright future."
"What about you, what do you have?"
Zi Yan was speechless immediately and bit her lip tightly, looking very pitiful.
I have nothing, I have nothing, I am just a slave sold to Yazi by my parents since I was a child.
Fan Wenying is blessed with a good fortune. Her family members are all high-ranking officials and well-paid, but she doesn't want to have such a fate. But can it be her turn to choose fate?
The Fan family just stood on the withered bones of thousands of people and absorbed the blood of everyone under the Fan family to achieve wealth and glory.
Zi Yan looked at Fu Wenxuan and said sadly: "Master Hou, I have nothing. You know my life experience. I was sold by my parents when I was a child. I have no home. From then on, I swear in my heart that I will never Let my child leave me and give my child a complete home."
"This..." Fu Wenxuan was a little hesitant.
"Parents love their children, but they have far-reaching plans. You just want to make up for your own shortcomings by trapping the children with you for a little love, and it is of no help. You are really short-sighted."
The old lady spoke harshly. (End of chapter)
