After being reborn with my scumbag ex-husband, I became his sister-in-law.

"Su Yi, don't hurt yourself like this!"

"You did nothing wrong. The one who did wrong is me! You are now my woman, and I will definitely take responsibility for you!"

As soon as Marquis An Ding finished speaking, the entire bedroom fell completely silent, with only Huang Suyi's sobbing being heard.

"No, my lord. It was I who did wrong. It was Su Yi who was indecent... Su Yi is of lowly status, her life is as worthless as grass, it is only right that the nobles look down on her..."

Before Huang could finish speaking, she stared wide-eyed, standing there dumbfounded, her facial muscles stiffening.

Song Xizhi could clearly feel that He Jingyan behind him was also breathing heavily at this moment.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the sudden turn of events. Even Song Ruoan clutched her stomach and slowly stood up from her chair. Only Song Xizhi composed himself and lowered his eyes.

Madam He's expression was one of shock and disbelief. She stared almost blankly at Marquis Anding's face: "Jianbai? What exactly happened?"

Marquis An Ding slowly helped Huang Suyi up from the ground, then put his arm around her trembling shoulders, his actions filled with guilt and pity.

“Mother, I made a mistake and did something wrong. Now that it’s too late to change anything, I’m fortunate that Jingyan doesn’t want to get married and Huang has already made all the arrangements, so I will marry her.”

After saying this, he lowered his eyes and looked at Huang Suyi in his arms: "...as long as she doesn't mind."

Huang Suyi lowered her head and said in a voice barely audible, "Suyi is of lowly status. If I could be a maidservant by the Marquis's side, that would be good enough..."

Huang's mouth was now so big that it could fit two eggs.

The situation before her was something she had never imagined and could not accept at all; it was like a nightmare.

Madam He stood there in silence for a long while before finally saying, "Well, this accidental turn of events can be considered... a good thing?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Huang heard a buzzing sound in her ears: "What wonderful thing?! What accidental encounter!"

"Su Yi is my distant niece, and she was originally supposed to marry Jing Yan! What kind of mess is this?!"

Madam He rubbed her temples: "You've already met her parents, prepared gifts, and even chosen a date. Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"

Huang's face turned deathly pale, her whole body trembled, and her voice became shrill: "How is this possible? What do you mean by 'just what I wanted'!"

"My husband has always been chaste and has not had a new wife in our room for more than ten years!"

He Jingyan coughed lightly twice, finally coming to his senses. He said softly, "Since Mother is so worried about adding a son to the Marquis's mansion, then it's all for the mansion's sake. It doesn't matter who it is."

Song Xizhi curled the corners of her lips, suppressing a smile, and in front of Madam Huang and Song Ruoan, she took He Jingyan's hand, pretending that the two of them were a sweet and affectionate couple:

"It just so happens that Jingyan is unwilling, but Father is willing. Mother-in-law has carefully managed to make the most of every day, and the furnishings of the Marquis's mansion don't need to be dismantled."

"Since Father said that he did something wrong and that our Marquis's Mansion owes the young lady, then according to the original agreement, we will bring her into the Marquis's Mansion as a secondary wife."

Upon hearing this, Huang felt a wave of dizziness and nearly fainted.

The old nanny beside her rushed to help her up, and she barely managed to steady herself: "No! I don't agree to this! I can't accept it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, before anyone could reply, Huang Suyi's sobs grew louder and louder, echoing throughout the room.

Song Xizhi looked at Huang Shi with an innocent expression: "Mother-in-law, does that mean everything you said before doesn't count?"

“In the past, people were told that one should be sensible, magnanimous, and consider the prosperity of the Marquis’s family; otherwise, one would not dare to go down to face one’s ancestors.”

“If the situation were in my hands, you would make perfect sense and I would accept it. But if the situation were in your hands, would you suddenly become jealous, petty, and unreasonable?”

Marquis Anding felt truly guilty. He said to Lady Huang, "It's nothing to be proud of, there's no need to argue."

"What's done is done, and no one can change it now, so I'll leave this happy occasion to you."

Upon hearing this, Huang felt as if the world before her eyes was spinning.

It turns out that all the things she painstakingly did were to bring her husband a scheming concubine!

No, she's still a concubine!

It turns out that all her hard work in persuading others and all her scheming were for the benefit of others!

This little slut is young and cunning. If she really gives birth to a child or two, what am I going to do?

As Huang was thinking this, her vision went black, and she fainted on the ground.

Huang fainted immediately, turning the entire bedroom into a chaotic mess.

Song Xi stepped forward to take Huang's pulse and said that Huang had fainted because of a sudden attack of anger and her poor health.

When Madam He heard this, she didn't know what to say.

Huang's health is poor, and she is now so old that she can no longer have children.

She used to talk about her concerns about the Marquis's heirs, and she spoke so eloquently that Old Madam He thought it was actually a good thing.

So she nodded, ordered people to carry Huang away, and looked in the direction of Marquis Anding: "Huang is in poor health, so I will handle this matter."

"However, if you want to take a concubine, I'm afraid it would be too hasty."

Marquis An Ding felt the woman in his arms trembling slightly. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Things that were discussed in the past with the respect due to a wife of equal status are not easy to change."

“Su Yi is also surnamed Huang, so I’m sure the Huang family won’t be dissatisfied.”

After a moment of silence, Madam He finally agreed: "Although this was a fluke, Huang Shi seems to have a hard time accepting it. You should try to persuade her."

Marquis An Ding nodded, his voice deep and resonant: "Understood, son understands."

After saying this, he looked at the scattered hair on the ground and pulled Huang Suyi outside again.

He Jingyan watched the two figures leave, then looked down at Song Xizhi's smile and for some reason suddenly felt like laughing too.

He also grabbed Song Xizhi's hand and pulled her outside.

Song Ruoan stood alone, watching the two couples walk away, and bit her lip.

The matter was so sudden, far beyond her expectations, but looking at Song Xizhi's expression, it was as if she had expected it all along.

She clearly wanted to make things difficult for Song Xizhi, but instead, she ended up with a scheming mother-in-law, and even managed to make He Jingyan and Song Xizhi's relationship even better.

She simply couldn't imagine what Huang would do to her, the one who gave her the idea, after she woke up!

Song Ruoan was filled with hatred! The hatred in her heart was almost overwhelming her!
