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

“Father, Yaoyao has been frightened. Let’s take her back to her room first,” Yu Kangjing said decisively.

The scene of my sister-in-law being punished later is not suitable for the children to see.

"And Ziheng and the others should leave too, lest they offend Mother," Shen Jinzhu added from the side.

"Let's go." The old Marquis said with a stern face, dismissing them.

The servants who were in charge of family discipline stepped forward, dragged Cui Ruixin away, and placed her on a bench.

Then he took the wooden stick and struck her buttocks hard.

Cui Ruixin, who was pretending to be unconscious, could no longer keep up the act.

"Ah—!" she screamed in anguish.

"My lord, my lord, spare our lives!" Her maids, Donghe and Xiaying, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

If the lady dies, they won't have a good life either.

The two men kowtowed repeatedly, blood seeping from their foreheads.

But the old Marquis and Yu Kangping remained silent, counting the blows until they confirmed that Cui Ruixin had been hit ten times before leaving.

Cui Ruixin had always been pampered and spoiled, and had never suffered such torment before.

He passed out completely after being hit six times.

Donghe and Xiaying carried her back to the courtyard, crying. They wanted to run to fetch a doctor, but the people sent by Yu Kangping were guarding the door.

"The Marquis said that family scandals should not be aired in public. No one is allowed to leave the manor to fetch a doctor."

Xia Ying burst into tears: "If we don't call a doctor, Madam's life may be in danger. The Marquis wouldn't want the Marquis's mansion to hold one funeral after another, would he?"

Upon hearing this, the man pulled a bottle of powder from his pocket.

"The Marquis was prepared; he may apply the medicine to the First Madam."

Left with no other choice, Xia Ying had to take the medicine powder back to the house to apply it to Cui Ruixin.

The news that the old Marquis had used family discipline to injure his first wife quickly spread throughout the Marquis's residence.

Apart from those in the mourning hall, no one else knew what had happened that the First Madam had angered the Old Marquis so much.

But everyone at the funeral hall had already been warned by Yu Kangping.

Anyone who dares to gossip will be beaten to death and thrown out of the mansion.

When the servants saw that the First Madam had been beaten, none of them dared to say a word. No matter how others tried to pry them open, they dared not utter a single word.

Spring Sparrow and Spring Oriole inquired for a long time, but still didn't know what it was about.

Chunying, thinking about their plan, had second thoughts and cautiously asked her younger sister, "The First Madam has already ended up like this, should we continue?"

"Why not continue? Isn't this a golden opportunity?" Chun Que's eyes gleamed with excitement.

“But…” Chunying was still a little hesitant.

“But what? Have you forgotten how the First Madam ruined us two sisters?” Chunque looked at her sister with a stern face.

She was filled with resentment.

My sister is so useless. Even at this critical moment, she's still thinking about letting Cui Ruixin go.

“I haven’t forgotten.” Chunying bit her lip.

"It's good that you haven't forgotten. According to our original plan, the father of the child in the First Madam's womb should appear." Chunque patted her shoulder.

"After all, the First Madam was so badly injured, the child's father must be very worried." A smug smile appeared on her lips.

Chunying hesitated for a moment, but then nodded in agreement: "Then I'll do as you say."

……

at night.

Cui Ruixin woke up from her coma, and the sharp pain in her buttocks constantly reminded her of what had happened that morning.

She couldn't lie down; she had to lie face down, and the pressure on her stomach made her feel uncomfortable.

She groaned with difficulty and called her maid over.

"Madam, you're finally awake." Donghe, who had been dozing beside her, suddenly opened his eyes.

"What did the doctor say? Is the baby in my belly still there?" Cui Ruixin asked, her face pale.

If this wretched creature dies, she will finally find peace and quiet.

Upon hearing this, Donghe lowered his head and stammered.

"Tell me!" Cui Ruixin became even more anxious upon seeing this.

In her anxiety, she moved her body, and the excruciating pain struck again.

Cold sweat instantly broke out on her forehead.

Donghe hurriedly wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied, "The Marquis didn't order a doctor, he only gave you wound powder. I've already applied the medicine for you. As for the child in your womb, I haven't seen any bleeding, so I assume it's fine."

Cui Ruixin was taken aback.

With such severe injuries, and the baby still inside her womb, could it really be a ghost child, just as she suspected?

"No matter what, you must find a doctor to examine me tomorrow. These people from the Jing'an Marquis's mansion wish me dead. But I will not do as they wish." Cui Ruixin gritted her teeth.

"Then I must invite the master from Qingguo Temple. That old hag never let me go when she was alive, and she still dares to haunt me after she's dead. I'm going to beat her until her soul is scattered."

Donghe shuddered as he looked at the lady's face, which was as pale as a female ghost.

She dared not disobey the lady's words and was about to nod and say "yes" when she heard a noise from the windowsill.

"Who?!"

Cui Ruixin and Dong He asked the question at the same time.

Donghe walked over quickly, lifted the lid, and saw that it was actually the groom Zhao Er.

Zhao Er was surprised that they had found out so quickly. Their eyes met and they were both stunned.

"Someone, there's a thief!"

"Madam, I've come to see our child."

The two shouted in unison.

When Zhao Er realized that his scheme had been exposed, he decided to give up entirely.

Upon hearing this, Donghe looked incredulous and angrily retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Zhao Er continued to shout, "Madam, our child isn't gone, is he? I still want to hear the child call me 'Dad'."

The entire courtyard was lit up.

Cui Ruixin was so angry that she trembled all over.

Who, who exactly wants to harm her?

"Don't talk nonsense, you lowly filthy thing, don't even think about throwing dirty water on the lady." Donghe was so angry that he picked up a stool and was about to hit him.

Zhao Er tore his clothes into a mess, then continued shouting, "I'm lowly? Then wouldn't the lady who shares my pleasures be even lower?"

Upon hearing this, Cui Ruixin nearly vomited blood.

Who, who on earth wanted to tie her to such filthy and vulgar people?

……

Just as Yu Kangping fell asleep, Chunying deliberately made a noise.

"My lord, I heard something seem to have happened in the courtyard of the First Madam?"

"Ignore her. If she wants to die, then let her die." Yu Kangping thought Cui Ruixin had woken up and was causing trouble, so he turned over and covered his ears.

Chunying gently pushed him: "It doesn't seem like it. I heard a man's voice, and he was talking about a child."

Upon hearing this, Yu Kangping instantly jumped out of bed.

"Help me change my clothes, I want to see for myself."

"Yes." Chunying helped him put on his clothes and outer robe, then quickly followed after him.

By the time Yu Kangping arrived, Zhao Er had already been taken into custody.

Yu Kangping recognized him as well; wasn't he the groom in charge of feeding and caring for the horses in the manor?

"My lord, spare my life!" Zhao Er immediately knelt down upon seeing him.

"I just want to confirm if my child is still alive."

He started wailing and howling.

Yu Kangping looked at him in astonishment: "Your child?"

Then anger swept over him.

Cui's affair, and she ended up with this kind of thing?
