Taking the blame for the fake daughter: After being released from prison, she went on a killing spre

In addition to Su Yunling, Xu Miaoyu's mother, Lu, who is Su Yunling's aunt, was also present at the banquet.

She immediately stood up and questioned Lady Qin, the wife of the Duke, asking her to explain Li Yu Niang's identity.

Qin wanted the banquet to continue without bringing shame to the Duke's Mansion, so she had to calm down and ask her in-laws not to get angry. She would talk about this matter after the banquet was over.

Su Yunling originally didn't want to give the Duke's Mansion this face, so she just made a scene at the banquet.

But on second thought, she decided to ask her cousin's opinion first.

Otherwise things would become too ugly and my cousin would be the one who suffers in the end.

So the two of them went into the inner courtyard to change their clothes. Xu Miaoyu picked out a lilac-colored skirt for Su Yunling, which she matched with a white shawl. The colors were elegant and fresh, and the fabric was soft and flowing. Su Yunling liked it very much.

"Lingling, do you think a man's promises can never be taken seriously? He took the initiative to promise that he would only want me in this life, but it's only been three years..."

"Cousin, why don't you ask him first if there is any misunderstanding?" Su Yunling was surprised at Xu Miaoyu's clarity of mind.

"It's been five years since we got engaged and married. I know him. When he deliberately avoided my gaze just now, I was sure that he had an unusual relationship with that woman." Xu Miaoyu's tone was calm, but her eyes were empty and desperate.

Su Yunling told her the facts he had investigated: "They have a house in the back alley of Yong'an Street. They claim to be husband and wife and often meet there secretly."

Xu Miaoyu closed her eyes in pain. The gentle and affectionate husband of the past was now broken in her heart.

After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "If I can't accept him bringing women from outside into the house, am I too jealous?"

Su Yunling answered seriously: "No, you probably just love him too much, so you don't want to share that man with others."

Su Yunling remembered that someone once said that the road of love is very narrow and can only accommodate two people at a time. If you insist on squeezing one person in, then one of them is bound to withdraw.

Therefore, the deeper the cousin's feelings for Chen Ye, the more she cannot accept his betrayal.

Xu Miaoyu hung her head, her shoulders shaking with sobs, "Do I really love him? I haven't had any children for three years, but I haven't given him a concubine. I'm really... very selfish."

She fell into self-doubt.

Just as Su Yunling was thinking about how to comfort her, Li Yu Niang's voice came from outside the door:

"Sister, open the door. I want to explain to you what happened between me and Brother Ye."

The two looked at each other, and Xu Miaoyu immediately wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

She is gentle but strong, and will not let people with bad intentions see her tears.

Su Yunling asked Linglan to open the door. She wanted to see how shameless this woman could be.

As soon as Li Yu Niang entered the room, she saw Su Yunling and Xu Miaoyu sitting at the table.

She looked at Su Yunling, who was fanning herself leisurely, with fear. Thinking of the slap she received that day, her face began to burn.

But when he turned to look at Xu Miaoyu, whose tears were still on her face, a sense of pride arose in his heart.

In order to stay in the Duke's Mansion openly, she must take the initiative to break that layer of window paper.

Thinking of this, she took a few steps forward and knelt softly at Xu Miaoyu's feet. Her narrow eyes were instantly filled with tears.

"Sister, please let me stay with Brother Ye! Even if you only let me be a foot-washing maid, I am willing to do it. Please, sister."

After she finished speaking, she came up and hugged Xu Miaoyu's legs.

Xu Miaoyu had never seen such a thing before and was so shocked that she didn't know what to do.

Su Yunling stood up and kicked her on the shoulder, knocking her to the ground.

"Since you like washing people's feet so much, I will pay for you to open a foot-washing parlor on Yongning Street so that you can wash as many feet as you want?"

Li Yu Niang choked with tears and shook her head repeatedly, "No, sister..."

"Shut up! Who is your sister? Stop trying to make connections." Su Yunling scolded her again.

Li Yu Niang seemed to be frightened and suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain.

Su Yunling frowned, and when she realized that she was acting, Chen Ye and his mother, Lady Qin, came in.

The two men looked at Li Yu Niang, who was lying on the ground holding her stomach and groaning, and frowned at the same time.

"What are you doing?" Chen Ye's unhappy question stabbed Xu Miaoyu's heart like a knife.

Su Yunling stepped forward to block his sight towards Xu Miaoyu, and said coldly: "I kicked her. She ordered others to make this county lady look bad in public. What's wrong with me kicking her?"

Chen Ye was speechless for a moment. Qin hurriedly ordered the maid: "Yuniang, where are you feeling unwell? Go get a doctor..." Then she turned around and asked Chen Ye to carry the person to the chair, ignoring her daughter-in-law Xu Miaoyu the whole time.

"Godmother, Brother Ye, my stomach hurts... Is something going to happen to the baby?"

Child? When Xu Miaoyu heard these two words, her heart seemed to be torn apart, her throat was blocked, and her breathing was difficult.

"Ye Lang, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

Chen Ye then realized his gaffe. He looked at Li Yu Niang nervously, and when he was about to walk towards Xu Miaoyu, he was grabbed by Li Yu Niang.

"Brother Ye, it hurts so much~"

Chen Ye's eyes hesitated between Xu Miaoyu's face and Li Yu Niang's belly.

Su Yunling was furious. She pushed Chen Ye aside and walked forward to him, saying coldly, "Your stomach aches? Are you about to give birth? Fortunately, I am a doctor, so I will take a look at you!"

"Why give birth? It's only been two months, how can you give birth?" Qin was anxious and angry.

"Who's about to give birth?" Mrs. Lu, who came rushing over after hearing the noise, saw the bustling scene in the room as soon as she entered.

At this point, Chen Ye knew he could no longer hide the truth, and he didn't want to hide it anymore, so he had to confess to the Xu family.

His guilty and reluctant eyes swept across Xu Miaoyu's injured eyes, and he turned to face Lu and bowed deeply:

"Mother-in-law, the baby in Yu Niang's belly is... my child."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lu's legs softened and she almost lost her balance. She pointed at Li Yu Niang and asked in disbelief, "You said... this woman is pregnant with your child?"

"Yes." Chen Ye lowered his head. Although he answered straightforwardly, he still did not have the courage to look Lu in the eye.

Li Yu Niang, who was pretending to have a stomachache in a chair nearby, finally revealed a smug look. Although it was only a fleeting look, it still did not escape Su Yunling's eyes.

Su Yunling forcefully pulled her wrist over and felt her pulse, and he actually found out she was pregnant.

"Stop acting. You should stop now that your goal has been achieved. Although you are indeed pregnant, your fetus is more stable than the stone lions in front of the government office. You're howling non-stop, right?" Su Yunling shouted.

Li Yu Niang's dry howling stopped abruptly, and she said with a guilty conscience: "I... I really feel pain."

"If it really hurts that much, why don't you see any sweat on your head? Only a brainless idiot would believe you!" Su Yunling directly exposed her clumsy trick.

This woman was so humble as soon as she entered the room today, completely different from the arrogant way she was last time in Linglang Pavilion.

She did this just to show off her pregnancy in front of her cousin.

First, he wanted to force the Chen family to bring her into the house. Second, he wanted to make the Chen family mistakenly believe that her cousin was jealous of her pregnancy and wanted to harm the baby in her belly, so as to make her cousin and Chen Ye alienated.

If such a scheming person were to really move into Chen Ye's backyard, she, the cousin who doesn't fight or compete, would just be bullied.
