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

Jinzhu and Yinzhu looked at each other, lowered their heads and pretended to be dead without saying a word.

Zhao also knew that no matter how close the maid was to her, there were some things that the servants dared not say.

"Tell me, I don't blame you!" said Zhao.

Jinzhu hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Third Grandma, why don't you wait until the cousin recovers and send her back—"

Jinzhu thought more simply. No matter what Liu Sisi was thinking or what plans she had, she would just send her away and be done with it.

From now on, as long as Zhao doesn't give in, Liu Sisi will not be able to enter the Marquis' Mansion.

If I can’t even enter the mansion, what future will there be?

Seeing Zhao's hesitation and reluctance, Yinzhu knew that Zhao was still thinking of her feelings. She thought for a moment, "If I send my cousin back so suddenly, I'm afraid the old lady in her family will have objections. After all, grandma said that we're bringing my cousin here to live permanently—"

"At least you have to come up with a reasonable reason to send them back, right?"

"I see that my cousin has been ill these past few days. So, under the pretext of recuperating her, I've arranged for a nanny to come over and take care of her health and daily routines."

"Wait a few days, find a reason, and send my cousin back. In my opinion, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Why don't you send a letter to my wife's family and ask her to pick up my cousin before the Mid-Autumn Festival and tell her family misses her? That would be even better!"

Zhao's eyes lit up, thinking Yinzhu's idea was good.

This way, everyone's dignity will be preserved, and it will also be good for Liu Sisi's future. Having been trained in the rules by the nanny of the Marquis' Mansion, it will sound better when others tell others about it.

After thinking for a while, he nodded: "Then do as you say. Go pick a nanny for Sisi first, one who is a bit strict, otherwise I'm afraid she won't be able to correct her rules! These days, let her recuperate in the courtyard and don't go to Lun Ge'er's place."

Yinzhu nodded in understanding: "Yes, I will go right away."

In the small courtyard next door.

Liu Sisi was lying on the bed, her little face was snow-white, without a trace of blood. There was a dark circle under her eyes, and her eyes were slightly swollen from crying. She looked as if her whole body was about to break.

Only Xiaoyu, her personal maid, was serving her in the room. Si Xi and Qing Miao were sent outside, one to boil medicine and the other to guard the door.

Seeing that no one was in the room, Xiaoyu poured a glass of warm water and fed Liu Sisi the water while complaining softly, "Time really reveals a person's true character. The young lady has been ill for two days now, and the young lady has only sent for the doctor to come. He is right next door, and no one has come to visit the young lady once."

"As for me, no matter how nice this mansion is, it's boring to live in! I heard that the eldest daughter is now in charge of the mansion's purchasing affairs. I also saw many housekeepers standing outside the courtyard, waiting for the eldest daughter to come back so that they could pay their respects!"

"What a great prestige! He has time to see those housekeepers, but no time to come and see the girl. He is so cruel——"

As Xiaoyu spoke, her eyes turned red, and she felt sad for her daughter.

However, Liu Sisi didn't care about this at all. She just heard that Zhao was now in charge of the purchases for the Marquis' Mansion, and her eyes moved immediately.

Seeing Xiaoyu like this, she forced a smile and said, "I can live in the Marquis' Mansion because my cousin pities me! Although I didn't mean to do that the other day, I did something wrong after all, so it's only natural that my cousin is upset with me! Besides, didn't they hire a doctor for me?"

"And as you said, my cousin is now in charge of the Marquis's Mansion's purchasing. She has just taken over such a big thing, so she must be very busy. How can she take care of me here?"

"Don't feel sorry for me. Living under someone else's roof, it's already a rare opportunity for me to be treated like my cousin. How can I expect too much?"

These few words brought tears to Xiaoyu's eyes. She choked up and said, "Miss, why don't you send a message home and ask the old lady to send someone to take us back to the Zhao family? After all, the old lady loves you. It's better than being neither host nor guest here and being looked down upon."

Liu Sisi was anxious. "What nonsense are you talking about? My cousin has treated me well. If I send a letter back to the Zhao family like this, how will others view my cousin? How will others view the Marquis' Mansion? How will others view me?"

After saying a few words, he couldn't help coughing.

Xiaoyu didn't care about crying anymore, and hurried to calm Liu Sisi down: "Miss, I was wrong, I won't say anything more, please calm down."

After finally calming down her cough, Liu Sisi grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and said seriously, "If you really want this for my own good, don't mention this again! Got it? It's easy to get into the Marquis' Mansion, but it's not that easy to get out? Even if I want to repay my cousin's kindness, I can't make a fuss about going back to the Zhao family at this time. Isn't this causing trouble for my cousin and bringing shame to the Marquis' Mansion?"

Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, girl, I won't say this again!"

Wiping away tears, she said, "I just feel sorry for the girl! I don't want her to be wronged."

Liu Sisi sighed: "I just hope my cousin will calm down soon!"

After a few words, he thought of Lun Ge'er again: "Have you seen Lun Ge'er in the past two days?"

Xiaoyu shook her head vaguely: "I was worried about the girl these past two days and didn't see Brother Lun——"

Liu Sisi saw through Xiaoyu's lie at a glance: "Are you hiding something from me? Tell me, what happened to Brother Lun?"

I started coughing again when I got anxious.

Xiaoyu was anxious. She rubbed Liu Sisi's back to soothe her breath, and couldn't help complaining, "Miss, you keep Lun Ge'er in your heart and think about him all the time, but Lun Ge'er doesn't think about you at all!"

"I saw Lun'er yesterday and was planning to talk to him. I thought since the girl was sick, it would be nice to have Lun'er come and talk with her to relieve her boredom. It would also make the girl's care for him worthwhile."

"But before I even got to Brother Lun, the maids around him stopped me, saying I was there to serve the young lady, and that she was sick, so I should stay away from her. How could I possibly run into him?"

"He gave me a good scolding, protecting my brother like a chicken, and then he ran away like a gust of wind."

"That brother, Lun, was just watching from the side. He usually calls Sister Xiaoyu affectionately, but at the crucial moment, he didn't say a word! The girl really loved him for nothing!"

Xiaoyu became more and more angry as she spoke. She didn't notice the gloom that flashed across Liu Sisi's face and continued to complain.

Fortunately, Liu Sisi quickly regained her composure. Apart from the gray hairs on her fingers holding the handkerchief, there was nothing wrong with her.

She said with a dejected look, "It's not their fault. Brother Lun is precious. If something really happens to him, I, a cousin who is just staying here, can't afford it. It's just a pity. I recently made some needlework for Brother Lun, so it's not easy to take it away from him-"

Xiaoyu was about to speak.

Then I heard Qingmiao's voice outside: "Sister Yinzhu, how come you have time to come here? Are you here to see the young lady?"

Then came Yinzhu's voice: "That's right, Third Madam sent me to see if my cousin is feeling better today. She has something good to tell her!"

Liu Sisi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she struggled to sit up: "Quick, please ask Sister Yinzhu to come in——"
