I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Chapter 177 The Heartache

Xiao Qianluo looked at him, "Who is it? Didn't you say that no one else knew about this?"

There was a flash of anger in his eyes, "It's that Yu Muyan."

"she?"

"Correct."

Xiao Qianluo was more sensitive to Yu Muyan's name than he was. She slowly sat up and asked in confusion: "How could it be her? Even if you don't tell me, I know that she loves you deeply. How could she betray you?"

Contempt appeared on his face. "Oh, I once tested her before, saying what would she do if I died before her one day? She said sincerely that she would follow me after everything was arranged. When I faked my death, I also left a will, asking her to die with me. Haha, now look at her, she is living well without me, and her life is getting more and more prosperous."

"Then how did she know? Your mother and your brother are the only ones in your family who know about this."

"Didn't I come here a few times before? I bumped into her sister by accident, and it seemed like her sister recognized me. I wanted to take care of her sister, but I failed."

Xiao Qianluo pondered deeply and asked worriedly, "Then your situation is too dangerous. That's not right. If she knew, how could she tell others? She is still your wife. What good would it do her if this matter got out?"

He said impatiently, "Why not? If this gets out, I'll be in danger. Once I'm discovered, my life won't be safe. As for her, I'm afraid she doesn't want to live a widow's life."

He and Yu Muyan have been married for many years. Even though Yu Muyan gave birth to children for him, he never took Yu Muyan to heart, even though Yu Muyan was devoted to him.

In his opinion, he didn't like Yu Muyan, but Yu Muyan insisted on marrying him. At that time, he had been thinking about Xiao Qianluo and wanted to marry her, but his family would never agree, and it would also damage his career.

It can be said that marrying Yu Muyan was a helpless act. The love with Yu Muyan for so many years was just an illusion.

It cannot be said that he has no feelings for Yu Muyan, but it can be said that there are too many complicated things mixed in this feeling.

He was dissatisfied with Yu Muyan, not only because of Xiao Qianluo, but more because he heard people say that before Yu Muyan got married, she grew up in the Qi family and was childhood sweethearts with Qi Motai.

When he married Yu Muyan, some rumors arose outside that he had stolen her away.

He boasted that he came from a noble family and inherited the title at an early age. Among the young men of noble families in the capital, he was considered a promising young man and outstanding.

Compared with Qi Motai, Lu Yuxuan is not inferior.

Hearing others say that he stole someone else's love, he felt very unhappy. It was obviously Yu Muyan who came up to him, but she still blamed him?

Not long after getting married, he heard some things about Yu Muyan and Qi Motai, saying that the relationship between the two was special and did not seem like a simple relationship between cousins.

In addition, Yu Muyan always avoided seeing Qi Motai at that time, so he felt that Yu Muyan had something to hide and was not honest.

This has since become a knot in his heart.

Every time when he was about to be moved by Yu Muyan's sincerity, he would think of how Yu Muyan treated Qi Motai in the same way. How could he not be disgusted!

When he was still in the Bo Mansion, Yu Muyan had cut off contact with the Qi family. Only a few days after he faked his death, Yu Muyan started to contact the Qi family again.

This made him more certain that Yu Muyan and Qi Motai still had feelings for each other! How could he tolerate this!

"So what are you going to do?" Xiao Qianluo asked.

"Of course I have to solve these troubles. Otherwise, I will be discovered sooner or later."

"How are you going to solve this?"

"Don't worry about that. I'll take care of everything. Also, we can't stay here for long. We need to find another place to stay."

A few days ago, he received a letter from the Earl's Mansion, in which he learned that Concubine Lian was pregnant with a bastard and was even delusionally wanting to use the bastard to inherit his title!

According to the letter, Yu Muyan was the mastermind behind the incident with Aunt Lian.

These things were enough to make him want to kill Yu Muyan.

The letter said that the matter he had instructed could not be handled personally by the Bo family.

Then let him do it.

After leaving Cimu Temple, seeing that it was getting dark, he prepared to go to Chuqing Hall.

When he arrived at the market, it was crowded and dark, so he temporarily let down his guard.

Little did he know that he, who was unusually low-key in the crowd, had attracted Qi Motai's attention.

Qi Motai heard from Lin Weiqiao that Yu Muliu had met someone who looked very similar to Lu Yuxuan in Cimu Temple, so he took some time to go and take a look today, and he noticed that there was indeed a mysterious man coming in and out.

He didn't dare to alert the enemy, but just watched silently as the man, who looked very much like Lu Yuxuan, quietly entered Chu Qing Hall.

"Why did you come to this place?" he muttered.

In the Fish-Watching Pavilion in Bo's mansion.

Aunt Lian, who had been in a coma for a day and a night, finally woke up, but she was so weak that she couldn't even get up.

Zhang's mother told her to lie down and said, "You are lucky to have a chance to survive, but don't move. The doctor said you need to stay in bed and recuperate."

She was thinking about the child, "Where is the child..."

Yinxiang held Qingjie'er in her arms and said, "Aunt, she is sleeping soundly. Madam has already invited a wet nurse to take care of her, so don't worry, Aunt."

"Well, what does the lady say?"

"Of course, I want you to take good care of yourself and don't worry about anything."

Aunt Lian still refused to believe it. That night in the ancestral hall, she never thought she could survive. Her only worry was that she might not be able to keep the child, and she was even more afraid of implicating the first wife.

She thought she would not survive, but God took pity on her and let her survive.

But how could she still have the face to face Yu Muyan?

Zhang's mother thought she was heartbroken and gave birth to a daughter, so she consoled her by saying, "Madam said that boys and girls are equally important, and it's just right for a few girls to keep her company. Madam even gave the girl a name, Rongqing, Qing Jie'er. She said that when you get better, she'll let you raise Qing Jie up."

She was startled, tears welled up in her eyes, "Really?"

"Can Madam lie to you? Madam has treated you and our family with great kindness. You and Sister Qing must never forget Madam's kindness."

"lady……"

Her eyes were filled with tears. Ever since the day she found out she was pregnant, she had been living in fear every day, fearing that the truth would be exposed and she would end up drowned.

But from how Lin Weiqiao kept the secret for her, allowing her to rest assured and take care of her pregnancy, to now that she had given birth to the baby safely, it felt like a dream to her.

In this dream, she saw two living Bodhisattvas who saved her from the water and fire.

In the main hall on the other side, Qi Molou came quietly, without telling Gao, and brought a lot of good things, daily tonics, and many valuable items, saying that they were to be given to Yu Muyan and her daughter.

Not to mention the guilt towards Ban Qing, Qi Molou also felt quite guilty towards Yu Muyan.

"Sister Yan, I'm sorry to bother you with this."

"That's not true, big brother. When I was at home, I troubled you a lot, and now you are being polite to me."

"You had an accident a while ago, and I couldn't help you much from outside."

"We are a family, why are you saying this?"
