I just want to live a happy life

By the time she had cleaned up everything and lay down on the bed in her room, half an hour had passed.

At this moment, she was leaning on the soft pillow, wearing an exquisite headband on her head, smiling at Ye Ge'er who was standing beside the cradle.

Ye Ge'er stretched out his little hand and carefully touched the baby's still red face, then looked up at Qingyue and said, "Mother, is this my brother?"

Qingyue nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, mother gave birth to a boy. Do you like your brother?"

Brother Ye nodded vigorously: "Yes, I like it very much. I will definitely take good care of my brother."

Looking at his brother's trembling eyelashes in the cradle, Ye Ge'er thought that his brother was very cute no matter what.

Qingyue suddenly gave birth tonight, and Ye Ge'er, who was worried about his mother, did not fall asleep. It was already very late now, well past Ye Ge's bedtime. He was very sleepy and tears welled up in his eyes.

Seeing that he was really sleepy, Qingyue asked Changping to take him to bed.

Looking at the flickering lights in the room, Qingyue also felt sleepy. She asked the wet nurse to take the child away and she went to sleep.

The wet nurse was specially trained and took the green drops, so she was not afraid that she would hurt her child.

The next day, Qingyue woke up very late.

After she was fully awake and had eaten some food, Ye Ge'er ran in excitedly to see his brother who had opened his eyes while lying in the cradle.

Her little son had a pair of big black eyes, which were particularly bright.

Ye Geer looked at his brother for a while, then looked around the room and suddenly said, "Mom, isn't Dad here?"

Qingyue shook her head.

She didn't want to lie to him. Although Gu Yankai had been controlled by her with the puppet pill and she could direct all his actions, she really didn't want to maintain the image of a loving couple with Gu Yankai in front of the children.

One day, she would send him to die. Why let the children have too much affection for him?

Besides, he was a scumbag and didn't deserve his children's respect.

In the following period, Qingyue was in confinement.

At this time, the wives of Gu Silang and Gu Wulang thought they had found an opportunity for revenge, so they left the mansion together and attended the banquet.

Since they can't do anything in the Marquis' Mansion, she can't do anything about it outside. Let's see how they discredit her at the banquet.

When Gu Silang and Gu Wulang's wife thought of the humiliating look on the face of that bitch Bai, they couldn't help but smile with glee.

At that time, Qingyue asked Chang Ping to take people to drive each of their families to live in one yard, which made life very hard for both of them.

The lady who could once have occupied a large courtyard freely was reduced to living together with the official's concubines. Although they could still occupy a room, it was not the same as before.

More people means more trouble, especially for Gu Silang's wife. She is not the type to scheme against others, so she is often angered by Gu Silang's concubines and cannot vent her anger.

In order to win favor, they use all kinds of methods.

If she had not lived with the official's concubines before, she would not have known what means those concubines used to gain the official's favor, nor would she have been jealous of the official's favor towards them. But now that they were in the same courtyard, it was impossible for her to know even if she did not want to.

This courtyard is much smaller than the main courtyard, and any movement in other rooms will quickly spread to the whole courtyard.

When I think of the official's attitude towards her, the eldest lady, and then look at his attitude towards his concubines...

Especially when those bitches intentionally or unintentionally provoked her as the lady, Gu Silang's wife was so angry that her teeth itched every time.

The situation with Gu Wulang's wife is similar. Although she is somewhat scheming, she is not having an easy time as the concubines have united to fight against her as the eldest lady.

These two people not only had external troubles, but also internal worries. They were exhausted by the troubles every day. In a short period of time, their originally pretty facial features became dull, and their eyes were full of irritability and fatigue.

But the more this happened, the stronger the hatred in their hearts became. If it weren't for the Bai family, they wouldn't have fallen to this point.

As long as they can suppress her, they will definitely return to their previous life of worrying nothing.

However, what they didn't know was that Qingyue received the news as soon as they left the Marquis' Mansion.

In the main courtyard, Chang Ping handed a bowl of nourishing soup to Qingyue and asked worriedly, "Madam, what should we do if those two people ruin your reputation outside? Otherwise, let me take people to stop them?"

Qingyue scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth, then said slowly: "Don't worry, they won't talk nonsense outside."

Seeing the determined look on the Madam's face, Chang Ping gradually let go of the worry she had been holding on to. How could she have forgotten that no one would have believed that the Madam could take control of the mansion so quickly? Isn't it easy to control the mouths of two people?

Gu Silang's wife and Gu Wulang's wife soon arrived at the banquet by carriage. In addition to the two of them, some ladies and girls from other families also came to the Changhong Earl's Mansion.

Under guidance, the two came directly to the garden of the Changhong Earl's Mansion, where a flower-viewing banquet was being held.

Maids came and went carrying tea and snacks, and the girls gathered in groups of three or four, laughing and chatting. It was a lively scene.

Mrs. Chen from the Changhong Marquis's residence was chatting with several guests. When she saw the two men, she hurried over and said, "What a rare guest! You didn't come despite my previous invitations. How come you have the time to come to my place today?"

Gu Silang's wife and Gu Wulang's wife looked at each other, forced a smile on their faces, and explained dryly that they were busy at home and had no time to attend the banquet.

Mrs. Chen nodded casually without saying whether she believed it or not.

Several people sat down in a pavilion. There was tea and melon seeds on the stone table. It looked like they were ready to chat.

Madam Chen was the first to speak: "I heard that Madam Bai from your mansion gave birth to a boy."

Gu Silang's wife was peeling melon seeds in her hand and said disdainfully, "Yes, she also gave out rewards to everyone in the mansion. She was so happy. If you don't know, you would think she was the only one who could give birth to a boy."

Gu Wulang's wife glanced at her and said nothing. Her sister-in-law could never hide anything and dared to say anything.

I really think that people sitting here can't see the jealousy and dissatisfaction in her eyes.

Several guests sitting here couldn't help but look at each other. They really didn't understand why Mrs. Bai was dissatisfied with giving birth to a boy. It was not like she had given birth before.

They also knew that the Marquis' Mansion had been divided after the old Marquis passed away. Although they still lived in the Marquis' Mansion, everything in the Marquis' Mansion had nothing to do with them. Not to mention trying to curry favor with Madam Bai to get some benefits, they couldn't just express their dissatisfaction directly. Wouldn't this clearly tell them how much discord there was between their several families? Aren't they afraid of being laughed at by outsiders?
