The cannon fodder female supporting role wants to run away, and the madly criticizing prince is red-

Cheng Jiayao didn't expect to be held accountable by Yu. She lowered her head and said softly, "Mother..."

"My daughter-in-law really doesn't know how to discipline Aunt Lin. She..."

Cheng Jiayao glanced at Yu, then quickly lowered her eyes, her soft voice full of helplessness and grievance.

I have just said this briefly, I believe Yu will understand.

Yu said, "Oh? You think she has Huai'er's support, so you can't do anything about it?"

Cheng Jiayao sighed in her heart. Isn't it? With Gu Huai, the idiot prince, around, she has no way to deal with Lin Qianqian.

She said earnestly, "Please let mother decide."

Thinking back to the last time, she was scolded by her mistress for following her husband. Before she could exert any effort on Gu Huai, she was interrupted by Yu.

She remembered the grudge from her previous life clearly. Should she kill Lin Qianqian first, or should she keep Gu Huai useless and then kill him?

It’s better to kill Lin Qianqian first, it’s easier to deal with her.

Just take her away from Gu Huai's protection.

Cheng Jiayao thought for a while, staring into the distance in a trance, and suddenly her face lit up with joy, "Mother, Aunt Lin has been in the Marquis' Mansion for so long, but there is still no sign of her body."

"I wonder if she is too weak, or if she is not suitable for bearing children? I would like to ask a doctor to take a look at her."

Yu remembered and nodded, "That's right."

"Huai'er stayed in her courtyard all day, so logically there should be some movement."

Seeing that Yu noticed this, Cheng Jiayao showed a satisfied smile on his lips.

Aren’t concubines used to bear children?

After giving birth to the child and realizing its final value, you can also cut the weeds completely.

She wanted to run the household comfortably. A concubine like Aunt Lin couldn't stay for long, as sooner or later she would climb over her head and show off her power.

Looking at the majestic red-painted gate of the Marquis' Mansion, Lin Qianqian stopped.

He broke the last piece of osmanthus cake he bought on the way back into two halves, stuffed one half into Gu Huai's mouth, and ate the other half himself.

After finishing the cake, she shrugged off the crumbs on her thumbs and index fingers, patted her hands clean, and wiped her palms with a handkerchief: "Always eating sweets is really boring."

"I'm greedy and want to eat spicy noodles."

"Spicy strips? What are spicy strips?" Gu Huai asked, staring at her bright face.

“It’s just spicy noodles.”

Gu Huai held Lin Qianqian's hand, and the two of them lifted their legs and stepped over the threshold together, "I also want to eat the spicy strips you're talking about."

"Qianqian, can you do it?"

"Hmm, let me think about it. I tried to do this once before, it was pretty easy."

As night fell, Nanny Hong summoned Lin Qianqian and Gu Huai to the Jinfeng Yulu Pavilion.

The moonlight shines on the green tiles of the flying eaves, creating a faint silver luster, and it seems as if covered with soft and transparent white gauze.

The lights in the mansion were turned on, and the whole yard became quiet and mysterious. The dim lanterns illuminated a long corridor.

Madam Hong glanced at the light green round melon with grid patterns in Lin Qianqian's arms and asked, "Madam Lin, what kind of melon is that in your arms? I've never seen it before."

Lin Qianqian said, "Mammy, this is Hami melon, a tribute from the Hami Fruit Kingdom."

Madam Hong laughed and said, "This is a rare item. You are really filial."

When Yu saw Lin Qianqian come in, she raised an annoyed face and was about to get angry, but she saw her coming forward with a cantaloupe in her arms and smiling.

"Madam, this is the Hami melon that King Beixuan gave me today. It is very sweet. Come and try it."

Nanny Hong carefully took the melon from Lin Qianqian's hand, touched the outer melon skin, and smiled at Yu, "This Hami melon was a tribute from Hami melon, but it is a rare thing."

Yu took a look at the rare item and then turned to look at Lin Qianqian.

"Mrs. Lin, have you been too unrestrained these days? You've been eating, drinking and having fun with Huai'er without any proper manners, and his studies have been delayed."

Lin Qianqian said with a smile.

"Madam, how could the prince be led astray by me? He is very smart. He has never skipped classes when we went out. The prince has not fallen behind in his studies. He studies harder than before. Do you want to test him?"

Gu Huai sat down next to Yu, "Mom, I really haven't fallen behind in my studies. It's just that I don't want to stay at home all the time. It's too boring. It just so happens that King Beixuan invited us today, so we went to his house for a banquet."

"You don't know. I didn't know until I went there that the officials were all extremely intelligent and outstanding. They were all talented and spoke well. I felt that I had not learned enough in school."

When Yu saw the thoughtful expression on Gu Huai's face, she was touched that her son actually realized his shortcomings.

She then said to Lin Qianqian, "Auntie Lin, I want to ask you something."

"You've been in the mansion for such a long time, and Huai'er has been staying in your courtyard almost every day, so how come there's no movement in your belly?"

"Jia Yao will invite a doctor to take a good look at you tomorrow."

Lin Qianqian's heart skipped a beat, and she asked calmly, "Madam, was it your idea to invite the doctor, or was it the Crown Prince's Consort's suggestion?"

Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "If Jiayao hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about it."

"Isn't the purpose of marrying a concubine to have children? Look at your belly, you should be pregnant by now."

Lin Qianqian sneered in her heart.

Coming?

The heroine has a big move in mind.

In the original story, cannon fodder Lin Qianqian was pregnant, but it was her life-or-death catastrophe. First, the pregnancy made Lin Qianqian feel insecure, and then the heroine ordered the concubine to come to the house to make trouble. The two quarreled, and the cannon fodder prince cheated on her several times during her pregnancy, which made cannon fodder Lin Qianqian miscarry.

Lin Qianqian maintained a polite smile on her face, "Madam, you are right, but I am afraid that giving birth to a child cannot be left to me alone."

"If I get pregnant, it will be a bastard's child. The most important thing now is to get pregnant with a legitimate eldest son. The legitimate son should be trained to be a talent as soon as possible, so that he can help the Marquis's mansion to achieve success and prosper the family."

Gu Huai turned his head and looked at Lin Qianqian in shock.

He thought he heard wrongly.

Lin Qianqian lowered her lips and pursed them a little aggrievedly: "The duties of a legal wife include managing the household and giving birth to children. Usually, after the legal wife gives birth to a child, the concubine will give birth to another. How can the child I give birth to take the title of eldest son?"

Yu suddenly remembered something and looked at Gu Huai with a worried look on her face, "Huai'er, you and Jiayao haven't consummated your marriage yet, right?"

Gu Huai lowered his head to the lowest point, "Yes, mother."

"Okay, I get it, you guys can leave first."

The Marquis sat down at the table and was surprised to see the Hami melon on the table. "Isn't this the Hami melon that the King of Hami presented to our country as a tribute?"

"The emperor only gave it to the queen and two concubines in the harem, and the rest is in Beixuan Palace. How could our family have such a precious thing?"

Yu talked about Lin Qianqian's reward, "She was just a prostitute from a brothel. She sang to please the prince and got the reward."

The Marquis said, "Don't underestimate those who can sing. Singing well is a real skill. Doesn't the current emperor like this? The queen mother also likes to listen to opera. Can you say that the emperor and the queen mother are vulgar?"

Yu was speechless.

The Marquis asked again, "Did Huai'er go to Beixuan Palace today?"

Yu undid the buttons on the marquis's collar, took off his undershirt and hung it on the rack.

"Yes, he also said that he found himself much worse than others. I think Lin has led him to be distracted from his studies. He doesn't study hard and is too absorbed in playing. What can I do?"

The Marquis said, "Doesn't he go to school on time and complete his homework? I think it's much better to associate with these people than with those bad friends before."

"Besides, think about it. If you interact with these people and become friends with them, wouldn't it be helpful to Huai'er's career in the future?"

Yu was startled, "Why didn't I think of that?"

The Marquis added, "Women are too kind. These opportunities to make friends are not waiting for you to do so by sitting at home. Although Lin is a prostitute in a brothel, I heard that her songs are very popular in the capital and many people like her. Huai'er is benefiting from her."

Yu was not happy that the Marquis actually spoke so highly of Lin Qianqian. "You speak so highly of this Lin Qianqian? I think Jiayao is better than her. Jiayao is obedient, sensible, intelligent, and helps me with my daily chores."

The Marquis sighed, "Yes, she is a good hand in your house. But can she earn these opportunities for Huai'er to make friends with others?"

"You look down on Lin's background and think her songs are vulgar, but men just like this. No one can resist a good song or a touching story."

"I think she is more useful than Cheng Jiayao. It's not difficult to be a housekeeper. An illiterate servant can learn from her for two days."

"For men, career is more important."
