"Prince...Prince, An'er...he just fell asleep." Su Canyi quickly tightened her clothes, stood up and said stutteringly.

Pei Jin then noticed some wet marks on her chest. His gaze stayed there for a moment, then shifted away unnoticeably.

"The doctor from the Liu Mansion has left." She thought he was here to call for accusations, so she organized her words in her mind and said with her head lowered and eyes lowered. "An'er has seen too many people during the day, and he is a little restless at night and keeps crying. Mother Zhou was afraid that something might happen, so she went to invite the doctor from the Liu Mansion. Now Mother Zhou has sent him out. Didn't the prince meet him?"

Pei Jin was a little surprised to see that she could speak fluently when talking about children.

"Really, Young Master, An'er is fine now. If you don't believe me, just look, he is sleeping soundly." Su Chanyi saw that he didn't say a word and was afraid that he didn't believe it, so she quickly picked up the child and walked up to him.

"Since you know there are so many people around, you shouldn't keep walking around with the child in your arms." Pei Jin glanced at the child in her arms. The child's chubby little face was nestled in her arms, and one of its chubby hands was unconsciously grabbing its mother's clothes.

"I didn't wander around..." Su Chanyi was afraid that he would blame her, so she explained softly, "It was Madam who asked me to go."

She stood in front of him, exuding a mixture of citrus and milk scents. Pei Jin's face turned red involuntarily, and he blurted out, "What is this smell?"

"I'm sorry, Master... I had taken a bath, but An'er made a scene..." Su Canyi took two steps back, her face flushed. Master, is this obviously disgusting to me because I smell sweat? How hypocritical.

Pei Jin didn't know why he suddenly said this. He coughed awkwardly and said, "Did the doctor in Liu's mansion say anything?"

"My Lord, the doctor from the Liu Mansion just said that the child is shy. It's okay. Just coax him more." Su Chanyi said softly.

This woman's words imply that children cannot live without their mothers. Is she thinking that she can gain status by relying on her children? She is dreaming. When the child grows up, how can she continue to raise him in the care of an uneducated concubine like her?

Thinking of his two half-brothers, Pei Jin's face turned even uglier.

"Don't raise boys to be too pampered. It's not good." Pei Jin looked up at her. Seeing her blushing face, he felt a little reluctant. Forget it. It was his fault in the first place. This child should not have come.

An'er in his arms seemed to know that someone was talking about him. He frowned, then opened his mouth and started to cry in his dream.

"An'er, be good, don't cry, An'er be good." Su Chanyi hugged the baby tightly, rocking him gently to coax him.

As she coaxed him, she thought with disdain, "Humph! There are all kinds of people. I just contributed a seed, but they are pointing fingers at me like this. An'er can only be mine. You don't have to worry about An'er's affairs. When we leave, who will remember who you are?"

Thinking back to the day when Dan Zhu provoked her and he heard it, so she asked Mother Zhou to slap her, Su Canyi was originally somewhat grateful to Pei Jin in her heart, but after hearing what he said, the little bit of goodwill she had just accumulated disappeared instantly.

Pei Jin silently watched Su Chanyi coaxing the child skillfully, and never looked at him again. He stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or not.

After standing there for a while, he whispered, "Take good care of the child. I won't treat you unfairly."

"Ah..." Su Canyi didn't expect him to say such words. Her heart sank. She didn't want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion and stay with him. Could it be that she had to be his concubine to serve him? It was really ridiculous.

But she didn't dare to say no, and quickly put away her surprise, and said gently: "Master, I will take good care of the young master."

"Hmm." Pei Jin looked very satisfied, but he was still keenly aware of the woman's ability to pretend to obey but actually disobey. Humph! Don't pretend in front of me, you are still young.

He suddenly felt in a good mood. With such a concubine to relieve his boredom, his life was quite comfortable. However, he regretted that he had made her move out of Zhuxiang Garden on impulse.

"When the child is half a year old, send him to his mother to be raised, and you can move back to Zhuxiang Garden to serve me." He said lightly, turned around and walked out the door.

How come he's only half a year old? Why did she move back to Zhuxiang Garden to serve him? Su Chanyi was so angry that she wanted to jump up and grab him to question him, but after all, she had to bow her head under someone's eaves.

She cursed in her heart, and then she realized that her chest felt a little cold. She then realized that An'er had been crying and had torn her chest open, revealing her white and tender breasts.

Pervert! She cursed with a red face, covering her face with shame. This man must think that she is seducing him, right? It's so embarrassing, no wonder she has to serve him.

"What's the matter? Is the young master awake?" After sending Doctor Liu away and returning to the house, Mother Zhou saw Su Chanyi sitting there stupidly holding the child, and asked with concern.

"No, the prince came here just now, but you didn't meet him?" Su Canyi asked in a low voice.

"I came in from the back door and didn't meet him. Is the prince here to see the young master? Oh, by the way, he should be here to see the doctor from the Liu residence. I heard that Miss Luo accidentally sprained her ankle while walking." Mother Zhou nodded.

As expected, why would he come to Fangfei Courtyard if he had nothing to do? Chan Yi spat in her heart, fortunately she didn't take it for granted. In ancient society, these concubines were just toys for people to have fun, and he just came to see his own cats and dogs.

When she was reading a book before, she found out that wealthy families in ancient times kept prostitutes for the enjoyment of their masters and guests. The children born to them were also of low status and no one knew whose children they were. When they grew up, they still couldn't escape the fate of being playthings.

It was so terrible. She looked at An'er in her arms and shrank her head, hoping that the gentleman would quickly discuss the marriage so that she could hurry up and walk in. If, as he said, An'er would have to be raised by the lady after half a year, she would never agree to it. How could she give up the child she had given birth to with so much suffering?

"Go to sleep quickly." Seeing her lost in thought, Mother Zhou thought that the prince had said something to her, and whispered, "The prince didn't say anything to you, did he?"

"So he came here to look for someone. No wonder he left after just one look." Su Chanyi said softly, "Mom, why would he say anything to me? We are not familiar with each other. It's so hot, so hot."

As she spoke, she placed An'er on the cool mat, fanned him with her hands and said, "Mom, please take care of me while I go take a shower. I'm sweaty and smelly."

"Miss Chan Yi, you must be joking. If you stink, we old ladies will stink too." Mother Zhou said with a smile, "Go quickly. I know you like to be clean. Don't be greedy for coolness. Use some hot water."
