I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Aunt Lian had tears in her eyes, and she said word by word with difficulty: "Husband, Madam, I am sorry to you and Uncle. But I can't help it. I, I am too lonely staying in Green Bamboo Residence alone... This child is innocent. I beg you to keep this child, let my mother take him away, or give him away, just save his life..."

Yu Muyan held her hand tightly and said, "Don't think about it. If you give birth to the baby safely, everything will be fine. No one will know what happened tonight. This child is the uncle's, and no one dares to doubt it."

Lin Weiqiao was quite surprised. She didn't expect Yu Muyan to be so generous.

But think about it, as a woman, Yu Muyan can more or less understand Aunt Lian. Compared with Aunt Lian, Yu Muyan is lucky, with a capable uncle, able to marry the person she likes, and give birth to her own children.

Aunt Lian is not like that. She has a loved one, but she cannot be with him. She has no choice but to enter the Bo's mansion as a concubine, and she is not favored by Lu Yuxuan. She lives a life in the backyard of the deep house, and her life can be seen at a glance. The despair in her can be imagined.

After a few more words, Aunt Lian started bleeding heavily again, which frightened Yu Muyan. Lin Weiqiao quickly pulled Yu Muyan out.

Seeing this scene, Lin Weiqiao felt uneasy. She was afraid that Aunt Lian would not be able to hold on. What if in the end both the adults and the children were not saved... She would never let go of Madam Lu and the others. Isn't this harming others?

It was rare that the Guanyu Pavilion was not peaceful that night.

Lin Weiqiao and Yu Muyan waited anxiously, praying silently in their hearts that Aunt Lian would give birth smoothly.

At dawn, everyone, who was already exhausted after a long wait, suddenly heard a not-so-loud cry.

They looked up at the same time, with hope in their eyes.

It was Sister Cuihong who came down to announce the good news, "Madam, it's born, it's born! It's a baby girl!"

Yu Muyan asked hurriedly: "How about Aunt Lian?"

"Mrs. Lian lost too much blood, but luckily she survived. Doctor Ma said that this time, Mrs. Lian's birth damaged her foundation, and she will have difficulty getting pregnant again in the future."

"People safe is good."

Lin Weiqiao and Yu Muyan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It was a girl. It was God's blessing.

If the baby is a boy, then the first wife will have no say in the matter. When the wife of the Marquis of Suning finds out, she will definitely let the child inherit the title, and then Madam Lu and the second wife will definitely not agree, and will expose the fact that Concubine Lian cheated on her.

In this case, there would be no way for Aunt Lian and her son to survive.

Therefore, the best situation is that Aunt Lian gives birth to a girl, so that the wife of Marquis Suining will give up and will not threaten Lu Yuheng's inheritance of the title.

Sure enough, Chunqing said that when the wife of Marquis Suining heard that Aunt Lian had given birth prematurely, she brought people here early in the morning. Before they arrived at Guanyuxuan, she was stunned for a moment when she heard that a girl was born, and left without looking back.

They went up to take a look at Aunt Lian. Aunt Lian looked as if her whole body had been hollowed out, with no energy or vitality left. She looked so pitiful.

Mother Zhang held her newborn granddaughter in her arms, her eyes swollen from crying.

Lin Weiqiao comforted her, "Aunt, everything is fine. Mother and daughter are safe, which is more important than anything else."

Zhang's mother was still unaware of the situation and only said, "I just failed Madam's expectations and am not a good boy..."

Yu Muyan had held a child before, and she remembered that when she gave birth to Sister Fan, everyone was disappointed, including Lu Yuxuan.

Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, she risked her life to give birth to them. She didn't want her child to be unwelcome when he or she first came into the world just because he or she was a girl.

Back then, she was also disliked by Old Madam Yu because she was not a boy. Later, her newborn daughter Fan Jie'er, the swapped daughter Yue Jie'er, and the adopted daughter Wan Jie'er were all disliked because they were not boys.

She has a weak character, but in this matter, her attitude is particularly tough.

Therefore, she paid special attention to her younger sisters, not wanting them to suffer any injustice, and would never look down on them just because they were women.

She looked at the child in her arms tenderly, "She lived up to my expectations. She's fine."

Lin Weiqiao said: "Madam, please give this child a name."

After thinking for a long time, Yu Muyan said, "The girl in our family is named Rong, so let's call her Rong Qing, or Sister Qing."

Return to the Shuangxiyuan.

In the main room, after helping Yu Muyan wash and have breakfast, Lin Weiqiao dismissed everyone, took a deep breath, and even found a soft cushion before kneeling down.

It’s not that she was being pretentious, it’s that the original owner’s knees were not good and she couldn’t kneel for long, and what she was about to say next was enough to make her kneel.

Yu Muyan was puzzled, "Mom, what are you doing..."

She admitted her fault, "Madam, I almost harmed Madam and the first wife."

She could admit her mistakes, but she just couldn't understand how the second house knew that Aunt Lian was not pregnant with Lu's child. The only people who knew about this were her and Aunt Lian and her servant. Even the Chai family was unaware of it.

It couldn't be that Madam Lian and her servant revealed the secret and sought their own death, right?

She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. The second room shouldn't have figured it out by herself. If they wanted to find out, they would have done it a long time ago, not until now. It was more like someone told them out of the blue.

Wait, it seems she missed one person, Lu Yuxuan!

Lu Yuxuan was still in the capital, so he naturally knew about the Bo Mansion. He couldn't hide the fact that Concubine Lian was pregnant. As long as he didn't touch Concubine Lian that night, he could be sure that Concubine Lian was not pregnant with his child.

But it's been so long, why did he just remember it now?

Then he thought, he was busy leaving Beijing a while ago, and he couldn't take care of the affairs of the Bo's Mansion, and it was difficult for him to inquire about it. Now that he is stranded in Beijing and has some free time, he comes to inquire about the affairs of the Bo's Mansion?

There is a high probability that he knew about this, but the possibility of making a big deal out of it is low. After all, he has to save face, and the Bo family also has to save face. He probably informed Madam Lu and had Aunt Lian executed secretly.

Also, I don’t know if he will vent his anger on Yu Muyan because of this matter.

Seeing that she was distracted, Yu Muyan called her a few times, "Mom, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, get up and talk."

She was still a little nervous. This was indeed too bold in the eyes of others. "I know about Aunt Lian's affairs."

"What? You knew about this?"

"Yes. I have kept this matter from Madam. I have done such a wrong thing, please punish me, Madam!"

"You knew it a long time ago? And you kept it from me?"

"Yes."

"why?"

"It's a long story."

Under Yu Muyan's questioning gaze, she explained everything clearly.

Her intention was good, but her methods were too extreme. How dare she let an outsider's child inherit the title?

In fact, at the beginning, she wanted more to save Aunt Lian's life, and she simply wanted to disgust Lu Yuxuan. She didn't expect that the situation would develop into what it is now.

If she could do it again, she thought she would still choose to hide it.

If Yu Muyan had been told at that time, she would have been soft-hearted and might not have taken action against Aunt Lian. But if Madam Lu and the wife of the Marquis of Suning knew about it, Aunt Lian could not be saved.
