The entire Marquis's mansion regrets it? Too late, their little one has become the darling of t

Upon hearing this, the system realized it wasn't impossible, and its gossip-loving spirit ignited, prompting it to immediately go and gather information for her.

It returned shortly afterward.

The elderly woman did indeed commit suicide; there was no murderer.

Yu Ningyao was stunned.

The old lady really did commit suicide to prove her innocence.

When Shen Jinzhu returned from her busy work, she couldn't help but frown when she saw her daughter's dazed expression.

"Was Yaoyao frightened?"

After all, the old lady had died, and white banners were hung throughout the mansion.

The wind might startle the child.

She looked at the maid who was taking care of Yu Ningyao: "Yaoyao is still young, so don't let her get close to the mourning hall yet. We'll take her there when our relatives and friends come to pay their respects."

It is said that young children can see things that adults cannot.

What if the daughter sees the Black and White Impermanence coming to take her mother-in-law away?

She would be too heartbroken to care if someone got seriously injured from the fright.

“Yes,” Emerald replied.

Yu Ningyao's eyes darted around.

She knew how to get rid of Cui Ruixin.

She must go to this funeral hall!

"Greetings, Grandmother." Yu Ningyao walked over and tugged at her mother's skirt.

"I miss my grandmother."

When Yu Kangjing returned with the news of the death, he heard his daughter's words and his nose tingled with emotion again.

"She's such a good girl, our Yaoyao is so filial." He picked up his daughter and pressed his face against hers.

Yu Ningyao noticed a cool, damp feeling on her face and immediately understood.

My father cried.

She knew the pain of losing his mother, but didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only gently pat his head.

"Don't cry, Daddy. Yaoyao will always stay with you and Mommy."

These childish words completely shattered Yu Kangjing's facade of strength, and he burst into tears, holding his daughter.

"Yaoyao, your father has lost his mother. From now on, I will be a child without a mother."

Shen Jinzhu felt extremely sad as she watched. She waved her hand, signaling the maid to leave and close the door, and then reached out to hug her husband.

"Your children and I will always be with you. You still have us."

Yu Ningyao nodded in agreement: "Yes, Father, you still have us."

Her eyes also reddened.

After Yu Kangjing calmed down, the maids, as requested by the madam, brought over several young masters, hoping they could please the master.

The three Yu brothers also learned of their grandmother's passing.

They looked at their father with some unease.

Yu Kangjing didn't say anything, but just patted each of their heads.

"Don't be afraid, your father will stay with you tonight to keep vigil for your grandmother."

He then looked at Yu Ningyao: "Yaoyao is still too young, so she doesn't need to go."

Although the death of an elder in the family usually requires the whole family to keep vigil, pregnant women and young children are not required to participate.

"I want to go, I want to go!" Yu Ningyao tugged at his sleeve resolutely.

"I want to be with my father, mother, and brothers!"

"Alright, then you can stay up all night. If you get sleepy, just go to sleep. Grandmother certainly won't blame you." Yu Kangjing patted her head and agreed.

at night.

After Yu Ningyao finished eating, she went with her parents to keep vigil.

The main family members have arrived.

Yu Ningyao was somewhat disappointed that Cui Ruixin didn't come.

If Cui Ruixin doesn't come, how can she continue this performance?

This person is far too dangerous. If she were to stay in the Marquis's residence, Yu Ningyao would be afraid that she might scheme against the third branch of the family at any time.

She was determined to find a way to drive her out of the mansion.

Yu Ningyao waited the first night, but Cui Ruixin did not come.

Yu Ningyao guessed that she probably wouldn't come again.

They decided to wait until the seventh day after the old lady's death to do something.

Aunt Rong returned to the Marquis's mansion the very next day.

She went to the mourning hall to offer incense to the old lady.

When the old marquis saw her, he was stunned for a moment.

"This humble servant greets Your Excellency," Consort Rong bowed to him.

The old marquis then realized: "Rong'er?"

"You actually still remember me." Aunt Rong's eyes glistened with tears.

The old Marquis was momentarily dazed.

Aunt Rong, the second son's birth mother, it seems they haven't seen each other for twenty years.

Twenty years had passed, yet Aunt Rong's figure remained as slender and alluring as that of a young woman in her early twenties.

Time seems to have left no trace on her face.

She looks exactly the same as she did when she left.

"I thought you had long forgotten me." Aunt Rong took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears.

The old marquis then came to his senses: "You haven't changed at all."

Aunt Rong smiled shyly.

"The same goes for the Marquis."

"I am no longer the Marquis; Kangping is." The old Marquis waved his hand.

From now on, you may call me Master.

Aunt Rong nodded obediently: "Then I will offer incense to Madam first."

The old Marquis nodded in satisfaction.

After she finished offering incense, the old Marquis held her hand and said, "Now that you're back, don't leave again."

Aunt Rong's lips curled up slightly; these were the words she had been waiting for.

"I'll do whatever you say, sir."

……

The Jing'an Marquis's residence has recently become the center of attention in the capital.

After all, the news that the mistress of the Marquis's mansion was pregnant with a sinister child had already spread throughout the entire capital.

Although both the Marquis's and Cui's families claimed that the matter was completely fabricated and a frame-up by thieves, many people still secretly spread the story and believed it to be true.

Otherwise, how could the old lady of the Jing'an Marquis's mansion, who seemed so healthy, suddenly die?

It must be the evil child in the First Madam's belly that's causing this.

Everyone was afraid that coming to the Marquis of Jing'an's residence would bring misfortune, so very few people came to offer their condolences.

They only sent a servant to deliver some gifts, and that was considered their visit.

After Cui Ruixin learned that rumors were circulating that the old lady's death was caused by the evil child in her womb, she smashed a tea set in a fit of rage.

She never expected that she would end up shooting herself in the foot.

She had originally thought that if word got out that the old lady was having an affair, it would overshadow her scandal.

Unexpectedly, this backfired.

"Has word gotten out that the old lady has an affair?" She glared at Donghe with hatred.

Donghe shook his head: "After the old lady passed away, the third madam forbade anyone from leaving the manor. We sent people to spread the word before, but the Marquis kept people watching the matter, so it didn't get around."

Cui Ruixin took a deep breath and suppressed her anger.

"Fine, a gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years. I don't believe they can keep it a secret forever."

She sneered and decided to see the old lady off on the seventh day after her death.

Then, we'll find someone to expose this matter.

……

Before they knew it, it was the seventh day after the old lady's death.

Yu Ningyao was somewhat surprised to see Cui Ruixin, as she had thought she would remain hidden until the old lady was buried.

Unexpectedly, she actually came today.

That's fine too, it'll just be a good opportunity to accompany her in a performance.

Shen Jinzhu ordered someone to prepare a table full of the old lady's favorite dishes.

Then they prepared paper money and incense, and had Yu Kangping preside over the matter.

Unexpectedly, after the incense and candles were lit, Yu Ningyao in her arms suddenly began to convulse.

"Yaoyao, what's wrong?"

Shen Jinzhu was so frightened that her voice changed tone.

"My dear, what's wrong?" Yu Kangjing quickly came over.

The rest of the people watched the spectacle from a distance.

Aunt Rong has just returned to the mansion, and she will not make any rash moves before her son comes back.

She was standing the furthest away.

The members of the three families all crowded around, their faces showing increasing anxiety.

"Yaoyao, are you alright?"

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing her daughter convulsing, Yu Kangjing was about to call someone to fetch a doctor when he saw her gradually calm down.
