My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

"Fourth Master, Fourth Madam, please spare me! It's all my fault! Please, Fourth Master and Fourth Madam, consider my loyalty to the Marquis over the years. Even if I haven't made any contributions, I have worked hard. Please spare me!"

"I, your humble mother, once served and cared for the Third Master! Now that she is old, I beg the Fourth Master and the Fourth Madam to show mercy to her just this once!"

"I will definitely change my ways in the future—"

After hearing this, Lu Zhenzhen looked at Fu Zhiyi and asked, "Who is this person?"

Fu Zhiyi thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be the son of the master and the wet nurse."

The steward nodded repeatedly: "Fourth Master has a good memory! This old lady is the wet nurse who served and cared for Third Master back then! Later, when she got older and something happened in Third Master's room, we were all released and stayed at the farm."

"Fourth Master, please spare my family for the sake of Third Master!"

Lu Zhenzhen smiled. Such a parasite, let alone her, would not be easily let off by any other master in the Marquis' Mansion.

What’s more, they are the family of the wet nurse of that old lecherous scumbag of the Third Master, so they cannot be forgiven!

It might have been okay before, but now this is her farm.

Use her farm to support the third master and his wet nurse's family, so that they can live a good life?

Are you kidding me?

Does she look like a saint?

If she doesn't force those termites to spit out everything they have swallowed, leaving them so poor that they only have a pair of underpants left, she wouldn't be called Lu!

"This is the first time I've heard the steward say this. It's quite refreshing! You just want us to spare you this time for the sake of the Third Master, right?" Lu Zhenzhen asked the steward with a smile.

The steward burst into tears and nodded repeatedly: "As long as you forgive my family this time, my family will serve you like slaves from now on, and we will go through fire and water for you!"

Lu Zhenzhen asked curiously, "Let's not get too far off topic for now. I just want to ask you one question: since you miss the Third Master so much, why didn't you be loyal to him and not embezzle a single penny from the master's family?"

"This, this--" The manager was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Since you didn't care about the Third Master's kindness in the first place, how can you ask us to be kind to you for the Third Master's sake now?"

"Besides, aren't you all just slaves for the Marquis' Mansion now? You can't even do your job well, and now you have your own selfish motives. How can we trust that you will honestly serve the Fourth Master and me like slaves?"

After a series of interrogations, the manager's face turned pale and then black. He opened his mouth several times but could not utter a word of defense.

In the end, seeing Lu Zhenzhen's intention, it seemed that she would not give him any respect at all. So she simply let out a fierce look and went all out: "What a sharp-tongued Fourth Madam, you're going to leave our family no way to live! What a Fourth Master, you're going to let your wife bully your old servants! You're so cruel, aren't you afraid of forcing our family to have no way to live and getting retribution?"

"The Marquis' Mansion is a family that has always been kind. I'm going to ask the old Marquis for help! If the old Marquis were still alive, he would definitely not let my family be destroyed because of such a small matter!"

Fu Zhiyi's face turned cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes!

It would be fine if he just talked about her, but he actually implicated Lu Zhenzhen, which is absolutely unforgivable.

Just as he was about to speak, Lu Zhenzhen sneered, "You've relied on the grace of this Marquisate for generations, living better than many of the servants of lesser officials! What right do you have to talk about retribution? If there's retribution to be done, shouldn't you, the traitors who steal from the master's family to supplement your own, be the first to suffer?"

"Even if the Marquis' Mansion is known for its virtuous deeds, it wouldn't allow a bunch of you wicked servants to crawl on us and suck our blood and eat our flesh, right? And you're even going to the old Marquis to seek justice? It's a joke! Could it be that the old Marquis would punish his grandson and his wife, who are responsible for upholding the Marquis' Mansion's dignity and prestige, just because of a few of you wicked servants who have turned against him?"

"Boss, I wonder where you got the courage to say such things? What are you relying on? What are you relying on to say such things? Is it because your family is thick-skinned? Black-hearted? Or is it because you are confusing right and wrong and trying to shift the blame?"

Lu Zhenzhen laughed at him unkindly.

The steward's face flushed crimson, and he trembled as he said, "Okay, okay! We've been running this farm for so many years, and everyone here only recognizes me. I wonder what you can do if you take over this farm?"

Lu Zhenzhen laughed in anger: "Without you, Butcher Zhang, I'm going to eat hairy pigs, right? Do you think you're some peerless genius? There are many people in this mansion who are more talented and capable than you, but just not as lucky as you. As long as I open my mouth, I guarantee that there will be many people crying and begging to come to the manor!"

"Also, since you said that the leaders here only recognize you and not the Marquis' Mansion, that's even better! Why not replace them all? Then I'll see if these people still recognize you!"

Lu Zhenzhen had never seen such an arrogant and stupid person.

He really is worthy of being the third master’s wet nurse’s baby. One person can’t raise two different people!

Fu Zhiyi saw that the manager seemed to want to say something else, so he waved his hand and said, "Why waste your breath on them? Come on, drag him away!"

Immediately, two ferocious guards came in from the yard, grabbed the manager's hands, and dragged him out.

The steward was still unwilling to give in: "Fourth Master, please let me go. I have a secret about Third Master. If you hear it, you will definitely forgive me -"

Fu Zhiyi and Lu Zhenzhen looked at each other.

Fu Zhiyi waved his hand, and the two guards let go and retreated.

The manager collapsed on the ground like a dead dog, gasping for a long time before he caught his breath.

Then his eyes rolled around, as if he was planning something bad.

Fu Zhiyi said coldly: "Since you don't want to say it, then there's no need to say it——"

The steward was horrified: "I say! I say! Fourth Master, I heard that the Third Master recently took in a new concubine. I heard that he dotes on her and is waiting for her to give birth to a son so that he can give all his family property to the child she gives birth to—"

Lu Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows. That’s it?

"Brother, your news is too late, isn't it? How long has it been since this happened? Uh, not that long! The Third Master is still lying in bed."

"Oh? What does this have to do with the third master's secret?" Fu Zhiyi said casually.

The steward looked around and lowered his voice, "We all know that the Third Master has been trying hard to have a child these past few years! And I've also heard that this new concubine is very favored. For her sake, he has sent away several of the previous concubines."

"Fourth Master, if this new concubine really gives birth to a boy, wouldn't you be worried?"

Fu Zhiyi sneered.

The steward perked up: "My next news can relieve Fourth Master's worries! I only pray that Fourth Master can show mercy and spare my family!"
