Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 308: Ninghua Marquis's Concubine Turns Over

In the days that followed, the Marquis would arrive at the main courtyard almost every day to enjoy a sumptuous lunch. Yi Qinghui, with her gentleness and thoughtfulness, personally prepared a delicious soup for the Marquis. Whenever the Marquis savored the rich, fragrant soup, his face was filled with satisfaction and joy.

However, when night falls, the Marquis will quietly go to the Green Rose Courtyard to meet the new beauty he has brought into the mansion. In this way, the Marquis's life can be said to be fulfilling and comfortable, and people can't help but sigh that this little life is really beautiful!

But Tuanzi had already noticed that the Marquis had been poisoned by a chronic poison! This poison was created by Yi Qinghui, and it was specifically designed to kill the Marquis!

This medicine is extremely sinister. Not only will it make the Marquis lose the ability to pass on his family line, but it will also make his physical condition increasingly weak and eventually become terminally ill.

However, Su Lan wanted to remind the Marquis of this. After all, the original owner didn't like him. Even if the Marquis's Mansion failed, her son could support herself.

While Yi Qinghui was busy dealing with Concubine Chun and Concubine Zhu and had no time to take care of Furong Garden, she decided to go out and select four children from the human traffickers, two boys and two girls.

These people were all carefully selected by Su Lan, with the purpose of training a group of loyal and reliable partners and capable subordinates for her adopted son.

After returning to Hibiscus Garden, Su Lan began to teach the four servants carefully. She first gave them names: the two girls were named Chunmei and Xiahe, and the two boys were named Qiushi and Donglin.

Then, Su Lan taught them how to read and write, and also taught them some basic martial arts. Of course, before this, Tuanzi had already thoroughly investigated the backgrounds of these four people and confirmed that they were all trustworthy and could be entrusted with important tasks.

Because of this, Su Lan was able to train them with all her heart without any worries, hoping that one day these people would become the most solid support for her son.

The ages of these four people are almost the same as Yun Hao. They spend every day together and are inseparable. This has also made Yun Hao's originally dull and introverted personality gradually become cheerful, as if the sunshine has penetrated the haze and dispelled the dark clouds that have shrouded his heart for a long time.

However, since Yun Lin was released from house arrest, his deep hatred for Yun Hao has not diminished in the slightest, but has instead intensified. He constantly contemplates how to kill Yun Hao to quell his hatred. Thus, he racks his brains to devise one scheme after another.

He first tried to poison Yun Hao, but was discovered by the clever and resourceful Su Lan and successfully resolved the situation; then he asked Yi Qinghui to pay well-trained killers to assassinate him, but still failed. All these killers were defeated one by one by Su Lan.

Yun Lin, who had suffered repeated setbacks, felt helpless. Facing such a powerful opponent, he knew that he could not directly attack Yun Hao for the time being.

After careful consideration, he decided to change his own destiny first, so he asked the Marquis to find a master with superb martial arts skills for him so that he could learn martial arts from scratch and lay a solid foundation.

However, Yunlin never expected that Su Lan would secretly intervene in the matter. She quietly replaced the truly powerful martial arts master that Yunlin had hoped for with a fake who only showed some fancy moves and had no real skills.

Poor Yunlin practiced martial arts diligently from dawn to dusk every day, but in the end, it was just a waste of time and energy. This so-called "master" couldn't teach him any practical skills. Not only that, the long and intense training made Yunlin's body more and more exhausted.

Despite this, the Marquis, seeing Yunlin's diligent training with no results, repeatedly advised him to abandon martial arts and enroll in academy. However, Yunlin was already obsessed with his own martial arts skills, convinced that he would eventually carve out a niche for himself. Therefore, he rejected the Marquis's advice without hesitation.

Yun Xiao, on the other hand, expressed admiration for Yun Lin's persistence. He saw his son as not only a warrior with a deep mind but also possessed a certain shrewdness, reminiscent of his own youth. He was convinced that, given time, Yun Lin would inherit the Marquisate's fortune and grow into a formidable general.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two months had already passed. Surprisingly, however, Le Chun and Le Zhu's once flat bellies remained completely still, as if time had stood still for them.

This situation naturally aroused the concern and worry of Old Lady Yun. After all, continuing the family line is the top priority for a noble family.

The extremely anxious Madam Yun made a prompt decision and ordered the doctors in the mansion to go to Le Chun and Le Zhu's residence every day to check their pulses and prescribe medicine to regulate their bodies.

Poor ladies, desperate to conceive the Marquis' child and consolidate their status, had to endure the pungent smell of medicine and guzzle bowl after bowl of bitter, unpalatable folk remedies day in and day out. Despite their reluctance, they gritted their teeth and persevered for the unattainable "dream of motherhood."

None of this escaped Yi Qinghui's sharp eyes. Seeing the once arrogant and domineering Le Chun and Le Zhu in such a state of disgrace, Yi Qinghui couldn't help but secretly rejoice, her pride evident in her words.

She knew that she had already successfully cut off the Marquis's path to having children. Even though these two bitches were in their youth and beautiful, if they couldn't give birth to a son or daughter, how could they possibly retain the Marquis's favor for long? Thinking of this, Yi Qinghui's smile grew even brighter.

The once arrogant Le Chun and Le Zhu were now like frost-bitten eggplants—completely wilted. Faced with the various difficulties posed by Yi Qinghui, the legitimate wife of a marquis, they no longer dared to act as impertinently as before.

Not only did they have to learn the complicated rules and etiquette, but they also had to get up early every day to greet the lady. All the torture and suffering that the original owner had endured in the past now fell upon the two of them.

In comparison, Concubine Chun was slightly more intelligent. She knew clearly that she and Le Zhu alone could not compete with Madam.

After much deliberation, Concubine Chun decided to humble herself and seek help from her former master, Concubine Su. To this end, she carefully selected many precious treasures bestowed upon her by the Marquis and went to Hibiscus Garden.

"Oh, it's Sister Chun. What a rare visitor! Didn't I send Le Rong to deliver the antidote for the past few months?"

Su Lan was lying on the rocking chair in the yard. She didn't get up when she saw someone coming. After all, he was her former master and the object of obedience of Tinghuawan. There was no reason for her to get up to greet him.

The antidote is actually the chocolate beans among Tuanzi's many snacks. This is also Su Lan's way of pretending to control the two of them. Even though the obedient pills will make them absolutely obedient, she still has to put on a good show.

"Sister Su, oh no, Auntie, Le Chun should have come to thank you a long time ago, but Madam always asks my sister and I to follow the rules of the academy, so we don't have time to come and visit you."

"This is a gift from Le Zhu and I. I hope you will accept it. You are kind-hearted and can tolerate us two sisters." Aunt Chun took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom and pretended to wipe away tears. "How wonderful it would be if you were the Marquis' wife. Then we would..."

"Sister Chun, please be careful with your words." How could Su Lan not know that the other party was trying to sow discord? She didn't want to cause so much trouble, so she used her spiritual power to activate the obedient pill in Le Chun's body while speaking.

In an instant, Le Chun's beautiful almond-shaped eyes became dull, and he knelt down mechanically like a puppet. "Master, what can I do for you?"
