It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child

He always knew that Su Man had a secret, and he thought Su Man would never tell him.

I didn't expect that she would be willing to tell him now. Does this mean that Su Man has completely trusted him?

The thought of this made him ecstatic.

Su Man also felt sad. She thought Fu Xiu would question her and doubt her, but she didn't expect that he just wanted her and her two children to live well.

She hugged Fu Xiu tightly and whispered,

"I won't hold you back, nor will I say I will die with you, and I won't stop you from avenging your sister and father. You can be the father of the children, and you can also be my, Su Man's, husband.

But you are also a brother, a son, and you are Fu Xiu yourself. I know that this time you are not only seeking revenge for your father and sister, but also understand that this emperor is not a wise ruler.

You want to find a wise ruler for the people, you care about the people, I won't stop you. But I want you to know, and I beg you, please do your best to protect yourself again and again, for me, for the two children, okay?"

Because of her life experiences since childhood, she has always been very independent and never gives in, let alone begging others.

But now, she broke her original principles.

It might be a little embarrassing and awkward, but she couldn't help it because she couldn't bear it.

This man was much better than she had imagined, and she liked him even more.

"I will." Fu Xiu replied in a hoarse voice, "I am very happy and satisfied to hear you say these words."

"Fu Xiu, I have never begged anyone in such a tone, so you must remember this, you must remember this, otherwise I will be angry."

"I know."

The two sat in the yard for a long time, and finally returned to the room to rest for an hour. Before dawn, they were called up by the maids and old women to start preparing for the wedding.

They have to take a bath, change clothes, and dress up, which takes a lot of time, not to mention that they have to leave the city before dawn, so they have to go early.

When it was time to bathe, the maids and old women had to come forward to serve, that is, to help Su Man bathe, which frightened Su Man so much that she finally asked them to wait in the room while she bathed behind the screen.

Although she is not a pedantic person, she is not open-minded enough to let a bunch of people surround her while taking a bath and be watched naked.

Just thinking about that scene made her shudder.

Who said that people in ancient times were conservative? Just based on this point, she felt that they were much more open than modern people.

Sitting in the bathtub, looking at the red petals floating on the water, Su Man couldn't help but smile slightly.

In the end, no one knew what she was thinking of, her face turned red quietly, and she took out a bottle of bath perfume from the space and dropped it into the water.

The fragrance in the air became stronger.

She didn't know if Fu Xiu was also surrounded by a group of people taking a bath at this time. When she thought of that scene, she couldn't help but laugh.

After she finished washing and changed into her inner clothes, she came out from behind the screen.

She was wearing a bright red inner garment, and her waist-length hair was draped behind her back like ink. Because she had just taken a bath, her skin was fair and rosy, making it impossible to take your eyes off her.

"Ma'am, you are so beautiful."

A brave maid said it directly.

Su Man smiled at her and said, "Thank you."

The maid blushed, she always felt that such a lady made her blush and her heart beat fast.

It's really strange. I can see the lady every day, so why is she embarrassed today when she sees that she is so beautiful? The lady is not a man, so why is she shy?

Su Man sat in front of the dressing table. She thought that the maids would soon help her dress up, but she didn't expect that they were just standing there motionless.

"Shouldn't I be getting dressed? Or is it not the right time yet?" Su Man asked.

There was a maid who laughed cheerfully. Su Man was also very familiar with this person. Fu Xiu said that she was an old man in the mansion. Looking at the kind of person Fu Xiu was born in, everyone called her Yu Ma.

"Madame Yu, what are you laughing at? Did something happen?"

"No, no, ma'am, just relax. We are waiting for two people. We can continue only after they come."

"Waiting for two people?" Su Man was a little confused. "Can you tell me who you are waiting for?"

She really couldn't think of who she was waiting for, and even thought about whether it might be someone from the village.

But he quickly rejected this idea. The village was so far away from here that there was not enough time to go back and forth.

"Well, you will know it later, but the general personally found this person for you."

Nanny Yu still spoke mysteriously and refused to tell Su Man who the visitor was.

Su Man had no choice but to wait quietly.

But she really didn't expect that there was this layer. Why didn't Fu Xiu tell her?

After waiting for a while, there was a knock on the door.

Nanny Yu immediately asked the maid to open the door.

Su Man also wanted to get up and look outside, but was stopped by Nanny Yu.

"Madam, you can't move around now. Just sit here. Someone will bring the person in for you to see."

Su Man had no choice but to sit down again.

Soon, the maid who had opened the door came in with a few women.

Leading the group were two elegant middle-aged women. Judging from their attire and demeanor, they were not ordinary people.

But looking at the two smiling people, Su Man was sure that she didn't know them and didn't have any memory of them.

"You are..." Su Man asked.

The two of them looked at Su Man with smiles as soon as they came in, and nodded with satisfaction when they saw Su Man.

"Very good, very good. Xiu'er has a good taste. She is such a graceful and elegant girl." This was said by the middle-aged woman in dark red.

"That's right. If Wan'er saw how beautiful and graceful her daughter-in-law is, she would definitely like her." Another middle-aged woman couldn't help but say something.

She was wearing a light yellow dress. Seeing the light yellow color, Su Man thought of what the girl in the palace was wearing, except that the girl in the palace was wearing bright yellow, while this girl was wearing light yellow.

The conversation between the two made Su Man's face more confused.

It seems that these two people are good people, and they seem to know Fu Xiu and have a good relationship with him, otherwise why would they call him Xiu'er?

As for Wan'er's daughter-in-law? Could she be a friend of Fu Xiu's mother?

Thinking of this, she stood up and nodded to the two of them.

"Madams, my name is Su Man. This is the first time we meet, so I don't know how to address you. Fu Xiu didn't tell me this either."

The fact that she was not at all stage-frightened and greeted them so calmly really made the two of them like her.

"Okay, okay, good girl, we forgot to introduce you." The woman in dark red stepped forward and held Su Man's hand.

"My husband's surname is Qin, and I'm Xiu'er's aunt. I just came here today, so please don't be offended."

"And me, I am a close friend of your mother-in-law, Fu Xiu's mother. You can just call me Aunt Xue. I also came back from outside. I was in a hurry and just came here today. It's normal that you don't know me."

After listening to what the two said, Su Man knew that she was not wrong just now, but she was a little helpless because Fu Xiu did not tell her about this in advance.

"Aunt, Aunt Xue, I'm sorry. I should have been the one to visit you first, but I didn't expect you to come first. Fu Xiu didn't tell me about this, so I didn't know about it. I hope you two don't mind."

"No, no, Xiu'er wanted to give you a surprise and wanted us to come over to marry you off and be your in-laws. I hope you don't mind us."

Aunt Qin patted Su Man's hands and spoke with a loving face.

Su Man was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Fu Xiu would arrange this.

This idiot!

Her eyes were filled with emotion, and then she smiled gratefully at the two of them.

"No, I am so happy that I don't even have time to despise you. It is my honor that you two come to marry me."

At this time, Nanny Yu, who had been silent, stepped forward, bowed, and knelt down towards the two of them.

"This old servant greets the Princess and Madam Qin."

Following Nanny Yu's words, the room suddenly fell into silence.

Some maids and old women were extremely shocked. What did they just hear? The eldest princess? The eldest princess in the rumors?

When these people saw this, they immediately followed Nanny Yu and knelt down. After all, Nanny Yu had a different status, so it was normal for her to know the eldest princess.

Su Man was also very surprised. She looked at the eldest princess in front of her with a subtle expression.

The eldest princess? Isn't she from the palace? But why is her age so different from that dog emperor in the palace?

And why would Fu Xiu find someone with connections in the palace to marry her? What on earth was he trying to do?

The eldest princess saw through Su Man's thoughts at a glance. After all, when Su Man didn't know her identity just now, the smile on her face was sincere.

But now that he knew her identity, those smiles not only faded a little, they even became a little defensive.

She looked helplessly at Yu Ma and others who were kneeling on the ground and said,

"Madame Yu, all of you should get up. We are here to see you off today. We are your wife's family. We don't care about whether we are the eldest princess or not."

Nanny Yu responded with a "yes" and then stood up, and the others naturally followed suit.

Aunt Qin looked at Nanny Yu and spoke with emotion.

"Madam Yu, I haven't seen you for so many years. You have worked hard to manage the General's Mansion and take care of Xiu'er."

"Madam, you are too kind. I was saved by the old lady. This is my duty."

The old lady is Fu Xiu’s grandmother.

Mrs. Qin smiled and didn't say much.

Su Man didn't say anything at this time, but just pursed her lips and looked at the people in the room.

Nanny Yu was arranged by Fu Xiu, so there won't be any problem.

Although this aunt was Fu Xiu's biological aunt, she did not believe her 100% because she came with the eldest princess.

She looked at Aunt Yu and asked,

"Madam Yu, I wonder how Fu Xiu is doing? Can I see him now? Or can I ask my uncle to come over? I have something I want to tell them."

"This..." Nanny Yu was a little embarrassed, "Madam, you can't see the general at this time, and you can't see anyone else."

Su Man frowned and was about to continue speaking when the eldest princess next to her spoke.

"Madam Yu, take them downstairs to see if the Hundred Children Soup is ready. Bring it in later. We will talk to your wife about the marriage first."

Nanny Yu was startled. She understood that this was a way to get them away.

She glanced at Su Man, who was also looking at her and nodded slightly.

Nanny Yu immediately took the servants out.

Su Man also looked at the eldest princess again, and this time there was no smile on her face.

Just to avoid embarrassment and misunderstanding, she wouldn't have such a cold face.

She also knew that the eldest princess asked people to leave just to say something to her, so she wanted to see what the eldest princess wanted to say to her.

There are only three of them in the room now. If anything unexpected happens, she is confident that she can deal with these two people.

The eldest princess and Aunt Qin looked at the change in Su Man's attitude, and they looked at each other with a hint of smile in their eyes.

"Don't worry. Although I am the eldest princess, you can trust me completely. I am the sister of the previous emperor, and the aunt of the current emperor. However, after my brother passed away, I moved away with my husband's family and never came back. This time we came because Fu Xiu asked us to.

And I am completely on Fu Xiu's side, not only because I am your mother-in-law's best friend, but also because I understand that this emperor is incompetent. What's more, my brother was killed by the current queen mother, so I support everything Fu Xiu does."

The eldest princess directly pointed out the reason, which Su Man did not expect.

But she still didn't say anything, but looked at Aunt Qin next to her. At this time, Aunt Qin made her believe it a little more.

"We really like you." Aunt Qin said with a smile, "Having someone as exquisite as you accompany Xiu'er, my sister will definitely be very happy in the underworld."

Su Man still didn't say anything. This was not what she wanted to hear.

Aunt Qin shook her head lovingly and amusedly, and continued,

"We know what you are thinking, but don't worry. Just like the princess said, you can trust us completely. Even if you don't trust us, can you trust Xiu'er? You think the two of us are not trustworthy people, can Xiu'er let us come over?"

It has to be said that Aunt Qin's words made Su Man believe it.

Indeed, if Fu Xiu did not trust the two people in front of him, he would never let them enter the general's mansion.

Su Man thought this through and apologized directly.

"Aunt, Aunt Xue, I'm sorry, I was abrupt just now, I hope you don't mind."

The two were not angry, but very happy.

Because they know that it is best to have such vigilance. If they are faced with those young ladies from aristocratic families who know nothing, that would make them worried.

Everyone says Su Man is a country girl, but with this demeanor, if Su Man is a country girl, then those young ladies from aristocratic families are not even as good as the country girl.

After explaining everything clearly, the eldest princess took off the blood-red jade bracelet on her wrist and put it directly on Su Man.

"Aunt Xue?" Su Man dodged directly, "What are you doing?"

She took one look at the jade bracelet and knew it was the best of the best.
