Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad

"I'm afraid you're not guilty, so you came so late?"

Liu Lu spoke sarcastically. Her sister was so careful, but she fell down in the yard where she often walked. There must be something wrong!

"Liu Lu, what are you talking about? Just because I'm late, you can slander me like this?" Fang Rou covered her chest delicately, feeling very aggrieved. She bowed to Madam Lu again, "Madam, you have to make the decision for me!"

Lu Jing is not at home, Shen Ruoyan will not stand on her side, the only person she can count on is Madam Lu.

At least, for Kang Ge's sake, she would help herself.

"Enough, stop making a fuss. You're all so petty all day long. Aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you if this gets out?" Old Madam Lu was too lazy to see all this. She gathered these people together to give them a warning, not to let them make a fuss in front of her.

Shen Ruoyan arrived late and had not had time to speak just now. Now she asked, "Grandma, I heard that Aunt Hong fell. How could she be so careless?"

She pretended to be confused and said, "The doctor said that Auntie's pregnancy is unstable, so we should be more careful."

After hearing this, Liu Lu immediately defended her sister, "Madam, it wasn't my sister's fault, but someone was behind it!"

"Oh?" Shen Ruoyan turned around and frowned, "What does this mean?"

"Since my sister became pregnant, she has been extremely careful. The doctor told her to walk more, but she only dared to walk around her yard and never even went to the garden. But the yard was always clean in the past, but when she walked past it today, she stepped on a pile of mud, which caused her to fall!"

"It hasn't rained in the past few days, and the road is very dry. It's really strange." Shen Ruoyan seemed to be thinking about something, but still looked at the old lady, "Grandma, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"

After all, everyone was called here by Old Madam Lu, and Shen Ruoyan couldn't make the decision on her own and offend the old lady.

She is still very easy to talk to about these trivial matters.

"I called you here today to let everyone know. In this mansion, offspring are the most precious. If I find out that someone has bad intentions, then there is no need to wait for Jing'er to come back. I, an old woman, will act like a bad person and sell the person off for him, so that the mansion can be peaceful again."

Madam Lu's eyes slowly swept over everyone present, even the maids hiding in the back were not spared. No one dared to raise their heads for fear of meeting her eyes.

She said this not to support Zhu Hong, but to let everyone know that you can fight anything in this mansion, but you must not touch the heirs of the Marquis's mansion!

The smile in Shen Ruoyan's eyes disappeared in a flash - things are valuable because they are rare!

"Madam, you are the most fair person in this mansion. This time, it is obvious that someone wanted to harm my sister on purpose. It is easy to avoid an open attack but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. This time, my sister got away with it, but what about next time?" Liu Lu knelt on the ground with a plop:

"Please ask the old lady to thoroughly investigate this matter so that my sister can give birth to the child safely!"

"Isn't it just a fall? Is it necessary to trouble the old lady so much?" Fang Rou didn't care, her eyes were full of contempt, "Although Aunt Hong is pregnant and has a precious body, you still have to take good care of her and pay attention to her yourself."

She curled her lips and said, "It's not certain whether he was harmed by someone or fell accidentally..."

"Shut up!" Liu Lu's knees turned red from kneeling, but her momentum was undiminished. "You are the most suspicious person in this mansion, and you are still talking nonsense here! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because of the Marquis's favor. If the Marquis knew that you did such a despicable thing, he would definitely hate you!"

In the Marquis' Mansion, Fang Rou felt that she was second to none.

Apart from Shen Ruoyan, she didn't take anyone else seriously, so how could she tolerate Liu Lu shouting like that? !

His face immediately turned cold, "You said I did it, so it's me? If your words are so reliable, why don't you report it to the government?"

Fang Rou sneered, "Besides, what evidence do you have to prove that I am the one who wants to harm Aunt Hong? Is it because I was favored when the Marquis was here that you are blinded by jealousy and think of me for all the bad things?"

"You..." Liu Lu didn't expect Fang Rou to say such a thing. Moreover, it was all nonsense!

Zhuhong glanced at her and shook her head slightly, signaling her not to argue any further as it would be of no benefit.

But Liu Lu was already so overwhelmed with anger that she couldn't stop at all. She just wanted to talk Fang Rou down and win the argument!

"You are just jealous that my sister is pregnant with the Marquis's child. You yourself have no children and are afraid that your sister will be favored because of this, so you took the initiative!" Liu Lu's analysis was very logical, and she thought so in her heart.

There are only a few concubines in this mansion, and it is impossible for me to harm my sister. The only one left is Fang Rou!

But Fang Rou just laughed sarcastically, "Then according to what you said, besides me, isn't the Madam also a suspect? After all, the Marquis has more than a few concubines..."

Liu Lu was shocked. She had never thought of dragging Shen Ruoyan into this!

My sister said that the Madam's purpose was unclear, so we should not offend her easily. She just wanted to take this opportunity to discipline Fang Rou, so why would she involve Madam?

"Stop making random accusations. Can the lady be like you?" Liu Lu was furious and looked at Shen Ruoyan's expression carefully.

She felt a little regretful that she had not listened to her sister and not fought with Fang Rou.

Now that it’s okay, Madam won’t hold a grudge against her, right?

"We are both women, what's the difference?" Fang Rou said with a smile, and then she apologized to Shen Ruoyan, "Madam, please don't misunderstand me. What I mean is that we are both the Marquis's women. In this respect, I am the same as Madam."

So she had a motive to harm Zhuhong's child, and Shen Ruoyan did the same.

After all, her mute son is as good as nothing.

As the mistress of a marquis's family, in a sense, she didn't want Zhuhong's child to be born even more than she did.

It was the safest for Kang Ge to be raised in the manor. As for herself, she was a woman who had never given birth. Compared with Shen Ruoyan, she could only compete for Lu Jing's favor at most. If this child was born, it would directly threaten the status of Shen Ruoyan's son!

Old Madam Lu even forced her to adopt her adopted son, let alone her biological son born to a concubine?

Once Zhu Hong gave birth to a son, then Madam Lu would most likely use the same trick again and register the child under Shen Ruoyan's name, making him the legitimate son of the Marquis's Mansion.

Shen Ruoyan, how could you not be anxious?

Fang Rou glanced at Liu Lu with contempt. What an idiot! She had overestimated her before!
