The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape
Chapter 25: The Great Aunt is Back 4
With a clang, the teacup in Wang's hand fell directly, and the tea splashed on her skirt, but she didn't seem to realize it. Zhao Yuxuan's face also became very ugly, and his eyes were full of surprise and confusion.
However, Xue Jinhua still sat there quietly, gracefully moving the teacup in her hand, as if everything happening around her had nothing to do with her. Her expression was calm, making it difficult to tell what she was really thinking.
"Yufei, do you know what you are talking about?" Zhao Yuxuan's voice was a little unbelievable, and his tone revealed a hint of dissatisfaction and doubt. Obviously, he was very surprised by Zhao Yufei's request.
Xue Jinhua could feel the suppressed anger in Zhao Yuxuan's heart. If he hadn't taken the people present into consideration, he would have been furious. But she was not affected by his anger and remained calm and composed.
"Yes! Yufei, why did you suddenly think of adopting a child?" Wang couldn't sit still any longer, her voice full of anxiety and worry. After all, Fan Ge'er was her eldest grandson! What if he was really adopted by someone else?
"Mother, it was our royal family who adopted him, not me. And even if he was adopted, it's not under my name."
Hearing this, Wang and Zhao Yuxuan were both stunned. They looked at each other with bewilderment on their faces. They obviously didn't expect Zhao Yufei to say that.
Instead, Xue Jinhua said with a half-smile: "Big sister, can you finish what you want to say at once?"
Zhao Yufei also realized that he spoke too hastily and caused everyone to misunderstand him, so he quickly explained: "Oh, it's like this, my prince discussed with me and planned to adopt Brother Fan to the name of the Crown Prince's Consort."
"No!" Zhao Yuxuan refused without even thinking about it. His voice was firm, as if there was no room for negotiation.
His attitude really frightened Zhao Yufei. She didn't expect her brother to react so violently. She hurriedly said, "Brother, I know that the child is the orphan of your savior. You want to repay your kindness, so it's understandable that you keep the child with you. So, am I not here to discuss this with you?"
She felt that she had made it clear enough, but Zhao Yuxuan still refused to give in.
"There's no room for negotiation. It's not your turn to decide where the child should go." Zhao Yuxuan's face was as gloomy as water. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Brother Fan is the business of our Marquis' Mansion and has nothing to do with your Prince Zhuang's Mansion, so I advise you to give up this idea!" His words were firm and decisive, and he didn't give Zhao Yufei any chance to speak at all.
Wang's face also looked particularly bad. She didn't understand what her daughter was thinking. Why did she want to adopt Fan'er?
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, and Zhao Yufei didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xue Jinhua smiled and said calmly, "Big sister, I'm also confused. If your family wants to adopt a child, it doesn't matter if it's you or the Crown Prince's wife, but why do you have to adopt Brother Fan?"
Wang was also puzzled and frowned, saying, "That's right, why did you choose Brother Fan for such a good reason? Can't you find another child?"
The corners of Zhao Yufei's mouth twitched slightly, and she thought to herself, if it weren't for Fan Ge'er's special status, why would she choose him to be adopted. However, this matter was after all a family affair of the Marquis' Mansion, and she didn't want to make a big fuss about it.
"Big sister, do you have any unspeakable secrets? Please tell us."
Facing the eldest sister-in-law's question, Zhao Yufei did not answer directly, but turned to his eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law and said: "Brother, sister-in-law, I want to talk to mother alone for a while, can you go out and wait for a while?"
Xue Jinhua naturally had no objection, but Zhao Yuxuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and walked out of the room first.
After the door was closed again, some topics that were previously inconvenient to discuss could finally be brought up.
Wang took a sip of tea, calmed herself down, and then asked, "I say, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly want to take advantage of Brother Fan?"
Zhao Yufei took a deep breath and asked slowly, "Mother, do you know whose child Fan Ge'er is?"
Wang's hands trembled unconsciously. She was of course aware of Fan Ge'er's background.
"I checked, Brother Fan is the son of the Crown Prince's wife."
This sentence was like a thunderclap exploding in the house. When Wang heard it, her hand trembled, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground again, making a crisp sound, which made Zhao Yuxuan, who was waiting outside, frown slightly.
At this time, Xue Jinhua was standing quietly in the corridor. The cold wind was like a knife, and the thin cold wind blew on her body like a knife. She subconsciously tightened her clothes. "My Lord, my elder sister must have something important to say. It's useless to be anxious. It's cold outside. Why don't you go to the next room and wait!"
She knew that Zhao Yuxuan was extremely anxious at the moment, but she said that not because she really cared about him, but because the wind was so cold that her body couldn't withstand it.
Living her life over again, she must take good care of her body.
However, Zhao Yuxuan was absent-minded at the moment, as if he had not heard anything. He still stood at the door blankly, motionless.
Xue Jinhua felt helpless when she saw that she failed to persuade him. She didn't want to suffer the cold with him, so she turned around and went to the next room.
After entering the room, Yinghua immediately made a pot of hot tea for Xue Jinhua. She picked up the teacup and took a few sips. She immediately felt a warm current flowing down her throat and her body instantly felt warm.
"Miss, the Marquis is still at the door. Do you want to... persuade him again?" The maid beside her said cautiously.
"Don't pay attention to him, just let him stand. I've already advised him. If he doesn't understand the reason, he won't leave easily." Xue Jinhua's voice was cold and firm.
......
At this moment, inside the house, Wang had already been frightened by what Zhao Yufei said. She was shaking all over, shivering like a fallen leaf in autumn.
If she knew that Fan Ge'er was the son of the Crown Prince's Consort, does that mean that she also knew about the relationship between Yu Xuan and the Crown Prince's Consort?
Wang was feeling uneasy and wanted to ask but didn't dare to speak rashly.
"Mom, do you also find this unbelievable?" Zhao Yufei knew very well that once such a secret was made public, it would cause an uproar. Looking at her mother's astonished expression, she just regarded it as a normal reaction and did not think too much about it.
"Mom, do you know? I couldn't believe it when I heard the news. So I asked someone to investigate, and it turns out that it's not groundless that Brother Fan is the Crown Prince's wife's child. Brother Fan is indeed the Crown Prince's wife's child."
After hearing this, Wang's face turned extremely pale in an instant, her body swayed, and she almost fainted on the ground.
It's over! It's over! It's all over now!
Obviously, my daughter already knows about this, and it seems that she can no longer keep it secret.
"Then who is the child's father..." Wang asked cautiously, trying hard to suppress the dizziness.
"Of course it's the Crown Prince's. I calculated the time and found that the Crown Prince's wife was pregnant when the Crown Prince was still alive, so Brother Fan must be the Crown Prince's child."
When Wang heard this, the stone in her heart finally fell. She was secretly glad that her daughter only knew that Fan Ge'er was the Crown Prince's Consort's child, and didn't know that he was actually her son Yuxuan's child.
You must never let her know!
Wang secretly made up her mind to keep this secret.
"Yufei, are you sure that Brother Fan is the Crown Princess's child? Or has the Crown Princess already acknowledged that Brother Fan is her child?"
I don’t know how my daughter knew about this, but Wang is still a little worried.
"She doesn't admit it, but... now the evidence is there. She doesn't admit it, but Prince Zhuang's Mansion has already admitted it." Zhao Yufei was still a little angry when he talked about this.
She followed the timeline and found the midwife who delivered the Crown Princess. The midwife had admitted it herself, but the Crown Princess insisted that it was not her fault. For this reason, she even went to the Xue family and asked them to explain the matter clearly.
Who would have thought that the Xue family would actually say that the Crown Prince’s Consort really didn’t know about this matter.
Wang was also dumbfounded after hearing this. "I'm pregnant and gave birth to a child? How could I not know?"
Zhao Yufei said, "Yes, this matter is too strange, but the second master of the Xue family said that the Crown Prince's wife was disfigured at the time and might have been unconscious. When her face was treated, she was in a coma for a while, so she might really not know that she was pregnant and had a child."
"This..." Wang was also shocked and unbelievable. "This is too unbelievable! How could a person have no memory of such an important thing as pregnancy and childbirth? And why would the second master of the Xue family say that?"
Zhao Yufei frowned, thinking about Wang's words, "Well, I also think this matter is very strange. The explanation of the second master of the Xue family seems a bit far-fetched and hard to believe. But if what he said is true, then the prince's wife may have lost that memory due to her physical condition."
However, Zhao Yufei doesn't care about these things now. She thinks that as long as Brother Fan is from Prince Zhuang's Mansion, it is a good thing for her.
"My prince knew about this matter and did not intend to pursue it, but he still wanted to take Brother Fan back to the palace. Considering that the Crown Prince's Consort is Brother Fan's mother, the prince did not intend to make a big deal, so he came up with a compromise, which is to adopt him."
"Mother, you also know my situation in Prince Zhuang's mansion. The Second House is eyeing me covetously. If the prince really adopts a child who is not related by blood, then I will be completely finished. In addition, I have a miscarriage now, and Brother Fan has appeared at the right time. As long as Brother Fan is brought back to the mansion, the Second House will be quiet for a while, and my life will be better."
Wang thought this was a good idea. After all, Brother Fan was her grandson! "But Brother Fan was brought back by your brother. This matter... we still have to ask your brother's opinion."
"I don't agree. Brother Fan can only stay in the mansion. He can't go anywhere." Just as Wang finished her words, the door was opened. Zhao Yuxuan stood at the door like an iron tower and said resolutely.
