Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince

A gentle smile appeared on Mrs. Wang's face.

Yes, there is nothing to worry about. I am the mistress and she is just a concubine.

Pei Yunshan glanced over and saw Mrs. Wang wearing a wide-sleeved, crabapple red, waist-length pleated dress. Her face was lightly powdered and her eyes were bright. Her black hair was piled up in a bun, which made her neck look even longer and more elegant. For a moment, he seemed to see her when she had just gotten married, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Madam, you have worked hard." He stepped forward and held Madam Wang's hand. He felt that the incense she was wearing today smelled particularly good, with a faint scent of gardenia.

"My concubine greets the madam. Best wishes to the madam." Liu Wan'er squatted down and saluted, looking gentle and pitiful as always.

Several concubines' children followed suit and greeted him.

Chan Yi only felt a gaze lingering on her for a moment before slowly withdrawing. She knew without even looking that it was that damned Pei Xun. She suppressed her nausea and lowered her head to hide behind Madam Wang.

"My Lord, you haven't had your meal yet. Go and have your meal first." Mrs. Wang's voice was rarely soft and gentle. She took Pei Yunshan's hand and glanced at him sideways with some joy in her eyes of meeting him after a long separation.

The group entered the main house, where food had already been laid out in the front hall.

"These are your favorite dishes, My Lord." Mrs. Wang led him to the seat of honor and sat down next to him.

Looking at the table full of food and his wife's thoughtful care, Pei Yunshan's nervousness when he just got off the carriage had long disappeared.

Seeing the two of them take their seats, Pei Jin, Pei Xun and others took their seats one after another.

"Mom, please sit down." Fourteen-year-old Pei Yun saw Liu Wan'er standing beside her and waved to her.

"Sister." Pei Qian beside her called her softly and said in a low voice, "This is the Marquis' Mansion, my aunt..." and waved his hand.

Su Chanyi, who was standing opposite Liu Wan'er, held the silver chopsticks in her hand and thought to herself, this is the end of being a concubine. No matter what, she is still a slave and can only stand by and serve the master and his wife all her life. What does it matter even if Liu Wan'er is favored?

"Chanyi, I'm here. Go and serve the food for Shenzhi." Madam Wang looked at Su Chanyi lovingly and said, while taking a dish of steamed sea bass, carefully removing the bones and placing it on Pei Yunshan's plate.

Su Chanyi nodded in response, but when she looked up, she saw Liu Wan'er's chopsticks that were stretched towards the sea bass fall in mid-air. She turned around, picked up a piece of braised pork and placed it in front of Pei Yunshan, and said in a gentle voice: "My Lord, I think this dish is very well cooked, please try it."

Pei Yunshan was about to pick up the food, but Mrs. Wang moved the plate away and said with a smile, "My lord, this dish is a bit too greasy. I'm afraid it will be difficult to digest if you eat it at night. It's better to eat sea bass. The meat is delicious and easy to digest." As she said that, she picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it to Pei Yunshan's mouth.

Pei Yunshan had never seen Mrs. Wang so gentle and considerate in all these years. He was immediately flattered. He opened his mouth and ate, saying that it tasted delicious.

Chan Yi looked at Liu Wan'er coldly, her eyes reddened, and one hand secretly pinched Pei Yunshan's shoulder.

"Madam, this braised pork looks really appetizing to me. It wouldn't be a bad idea to try a bite." Pei Yunshan picked up the braised pork and started eating, nodding as he ate.

"My Lord, please eat slowly." Liu Wan'er was happy now.

Watching the scene of wives and concubines competing for favor, Su Canyi's appetite, which was originally aroused by the food, disappeared instantly.

She covered her head and served Pei Jin food, not caring whether he liked it or not. But Pei Jin was kind enough to eat the food she brought him quickly.

"Chan Yi, I'm full." He put down his chopsticks and looked into the inner room. "An'er should be awake by now, go and take a look."

"Brother, you are so good to Chanyi. I didn't expect that you are also so kind and gentle to women." Pei Xun raised his eyes to look at Su Chanyi and smiled with his hands covering his mouth.

Pei Yun was feeling unhappy because she saw Liu Wan'er was hungry and couldn't sit at the table, but when she heard her second brother talking about Chan Yi, she couldn't help but feel happy.

"Brother, why haven't you seen my nephew? Let me see if he looks like you." Her voice was clear, her big watery eyes were rolling, and a mocking smile appeared at the corners of her lips. "I guess he definitely doesn't look like you. After all, this child..." Pei Yun dragged out the last word and glanced at Su Chanyi.

At that time, the eldest brother's life or death was unknown, and no one knew where the lady got the doll from. Since they made her mother unhappy, she would not let them be happy either.

Su Chanyi lowered her eyes and said nothing, thinking that this girl looked innocent and pretty, but her words sounded like poison. Wasn't her words implying that the child she, Chanyi, gave birth to was not the prince's?

"Miss, the young master is sleeping. I'm afraid that if I carry him over, he will be woken up." Chan Yi squatted down and glanced at Pei Jin's indifferent face. She felt a little suspicious. This young master was in a really good mood today. It seemed that he was giving face to the marquis.

"How can you be so unruly? You've been away for only a few years, but you don't even care about the elders and the hierarchy!" Mrs. Wang's face darkened, she stood up and smashed a cup.

"Madam, it's just a joke among children. Please don't take it seriously." Liu Wan'er's face suddenly changed. She knew that her children's words were indeed rude, so she forced a smile and said.

"You're almost an adult, but you're still a child?" Mrs. Wang looked fierce, and she waved her sleeves and threw a cup.

"As the mistress of a marquis's mansion, why bother with a child? If it gets out, people will laugh at you." Pei Yunshan quickly stood up and half-huggled Madam Wang, laughing softly, "Don't be angry, take care of yourself."

"Mother, father is right, please don't get angry." Pei Jin glanced at Madam Wang who looked unhappy and said calmly, "What does my sister know?"

He changed the subject and looked at Pei Yunshan: "I just want to ask father, do you think the same way? Otherwise, how could a little sister say such a thing!"

"You..." Pei Yunshan's fair and well-maintained face suddenly turned red, "Shenzhi you..."

"Well, mother, as long as it's not father and Aunt Liu who taught her, it's fine. But my sister's words and deeds do need to be properly disciplined. Tomorrow, I will find a few maids from the palace to teach her well. Don't wait until she reaches the age of marriage. If people know that her words and deeds are inappropriate, it will be a small matter for her to not get married. We don't want to give her a bite of food, but we are afraid that she will lose face for our mansion. As for my second brother, he is not young anymore, and there happens to be a vacancy in the City Defense Department, so let him go and train."

"Brother, brother." Pei Yun was scared now. Her face turned pale. She hurriedly walked to Pei Jin and begged for mercy. "Yun'er knows she was wrong. Yun'er will never dare to do it again."

"Sister, do you know how many noble ladies are looking forward to being taught by the maids from the palace? Don't be ungrateful for your blessings. Aunt Liu, do you agree?"

He smiled slightly, pushed Pei Yun away, and protected Chan Yi behind him.

Chan Yi was about to avoid him, but he held her hand.

"Father and mother, please allow us to return to Zhuxiang Garden first. An'er is still young and cannot leave mother."
