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

"Do you want your younger brother and sister to be freed from slavery?" Cui Ruixin asked.

"Yes, of course I want to!" Chunying nodded eagerly, her eyes full of anticipation.

She was a house-born child, as were her younger siblings.

They were born into the Cui family as servants.

But her younger brother had inappropriate thoughts.

He went to be the young master's study companion, and after learning to read and write, he also wanted to participate in the imperial examinations.

Those who were slaves could not enter officialdom.

Seeing her younger brother's depressed appearance, she felt heartbroken.

"Then do me a favor. Once it's done, I'll have someone remove your brother's slave status and change him to a free person." Cui Ruixin already had a plan in mind, but she hadn't been able to find a suitable person to do it.

Yesterday, upon hearing Chunying say that her mother was looking for a match for her younger sister, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and found a suitable candidate.

Chunying's younger sister, Chunque, was a pretty girl from a modest family. Her affectionate eyes had long captivated the hearts of countless men in the Cui household.

If such a person were placed in the Cui family, it would be troublesome if he led his nephews astray.

It would be better to have her come to the Marquis's residence.

"Please speak, Madam." Chunying was naturally willing to go to any lengths for her brother's happiness.

Cui Ruixin spoke slowly and deliberately: "Have your sister come to the Marquis's residence to eat and live with you for a few days, figure out the layout of the residence, and then have her climb into the Third Master's bed. Is that possible?"

"Third Master?" Chunying was taken aback, then realized what the madam meant, and she couldn't help but blurt out, "But concubines are not allowed in the manor."

"Don't worry, as long as it works out, your sister will definitely have a proper status. The third brother and Shen Jinzhu are both soft-hearted people. If you cry and make a fuss, they will definitely keep your sister." Cui Ruixin had planned everything out.

She would then go to Yu Kangjing and ask him to persuade the Marquis, who drowns his sorrows in alcohol every day, and arrange for Chunying's sister to deliver the wine.

She didn't believe that Yu Kangjing, a grown man, could resist adding some good stuff to the wine.

As for the Marquis, she will seize the opportunity and go to pick him up first.

When Yu Kangjing and Chunque consummate their marriage, she will send someone to lead Shen Jinzhu to witness it firsthand. She refuses to believe that the third wife and her husband can still maintain their loving relationship and harmonious marriage.

Chunying pondered the feasibility of the lady's words repeatedly in her mind.

In the end, I decided to take the gamble.

"Please bring my sister here, Madam. I will have a good talk with her."

“Yes, you two sisters haven’t seen each other in a long time, you should have a good chat.” Cui Ruixin smiled smugly when she saw that she had agreed.

"You've worked so hard by my side all these years." She casually took a silver hairpin from her hair and handed it to Chunying.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Madam." Chunying accepted the gift and quickly expressed her gratitude.

That afternoon, Chunque was sent from the Cui residence to the Jing'an Marquis's residence.

Chunying took her younger sister on a nice tour of the Marquis's residence.

Chun Que was instantly dazzled by the wealth and splendor of the Marquis's mansion.

Chunying explained the First Madam's plan, and Chunque bit her lip, hesitating after listening.

Chunying pressed her shoulder and said excitedly:

“Ming’er wants to study and take the imperial examination. As his older sister, are we just going to watch him miss this opportunity? If Ming’er really passes the exam, our family will be transformed. Your child will no longer be a servant who can be beaten and scolded at will.”

In the end, Chunque nodded.

"Big sister, I'll do whatever you say."

With the candidates chosen, Cui Ruixin ordered people to go out and buy aphrodisiacs.

Thinking of the scene where Shen Jinzhu was heartbroken after seeing Yu Kangjing having sex with someone else, Cui Ruixin couldn't help but laugh.

She waited for several days until Yu Kangjing finally finished his shift.

She sent someone to invite Yu Kangjing over.

"What does my sister-in-law want with me?" Yu Kangjing asked, puzzled.

"Third brother, I wouldn't have asked you for this favor if it weren't for dire circumstances." Cui Ruixin picked up a handkerchief and wiped her wet eyes.

"What happened? What does my sister-in-law want me to help with?" Yu Kangjing suddenly felt a bit awkward.

“The Marquis drowns his sorrows in alcohol every day and hasn’t eaten with the children for over two months. When I talk to him, he barely responds. I really don’t know what to do. You are his younger brother, can you help me persuade him?” Cui Ruixin asked pitifully.

“I don’t ask him to treat me the same way as before, I just ask him to have more pity on the children. Weiwei can call him ‘Daddy’ now, and she asks me all day long, ‘Where’s Daddy? Where’s Daddy?’ It hurts me to hear that.”

She wiped away tears as she spoke.

She had someone bring her daughter over, pointed at Yu Kangjing, and said, "Weiwei, call him Third Uncle."

"Third Uncle," Yu Ruowei said obediently.

"Do you miss your father?" Cui Ruixin asked again.

"I miss my father~" Yu Ruowei nodded.

Cui Ruixin had taught her to say this many times, and she finally didn't make a mistake.

Upon hearing his niece's words, Yu Kangjing couldn't bear it any longer.

The eldest brother was so inappropriate to abandon his child for a woman, so he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll go and persuade my brother to come and visit Weiwei and the others more often."

"Thank you, Third Brother." Cui Ruixin smiled through her tears.

"Go back and tell Madam that I won't be coming home for dinner tonight. My elder brother and I will be eating together in the study. There's no need to wait for me to come back for dinner." Yu Kangjing turned his head and instructed his servant Tiandong to go back and deliver the message.

After the servant left, Yu Kangjing looked at Cui Ruixin.

"Sister-in-law, shall I go see my brother now?"

"Yes, go ahead. I'll have someone send you some good wine and food. You two brothers, have a good chat." Cui Ruixin smiled gently.

Yu Kangjing went to the study and saw his elder brother looking dejected. He couldn't help but frown.

"Big brother, what happened to you?"

“My women are all marrying other men, and I’m powerless to stop it. What else can I do?” Yu Kangping said listlessly.

Yu Kangjing said solemnly, "What's done is done, we can't change it, so we might as well accept it. You still have parents, siblings, and children. You can't go on like this. Two months, brother, you've been wallowing in this for too long."

Losing someone when you're deeply in love is a pain that Yu Kangping naturally finds hard to accept.

He sighed, "You don't understand. How well Ying'er understands me. Without her, I feel like life has lost its flavor."

At this moment, the servants arranged by Cui Ruixin brought over the wine and dishes.

"Third brother, stop talking. If you really care about your elder brother, then have a good drink with him." Yu Kangping poured wine for his younger brother.

“You can drink, but could you please not do this again tomorrow? You are a marquis, and you represent the face of our entire family,” Yu Kangjing advised again.

"If you drink with me and make me happy, anything is negotiable. Cheers!" Yu Kangping tilted his head back and downed a glass of wine.

Yu Kangjing had no choice but to drink along.

Chun Que stayed to the side, silently pouring wine without saying a word.

She stared at Yu Kangjing, feeling a surge of joy.

The third master of the Marquis's mansion is so young and handsome, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage if she followed him.

Because she hadn't spoken and was barely noticeable, the two men, preoccupied with drinking, didn't pay much attention to her.

On the other side, Cui Ruixin kept calculating the time. Seeing that it was almost time for the medicine to take effect, she stood up.

"Let's go and bring the Marquis back to rest."

……

Just as Chunque was getting nervous and kept adding wine, there was a knock on the study door.

"Master, the second young lady is not feeling well. You should go back and take a look at her."

Upon hearing his servant's voice, Yu Kangjing abruptly stood up.

"What's wrong with my darling?" He swayed as he went to open the door.

Seeing Tian Dong standing at the door, Chun Que was dumbfounded.

Wasn't it said that the First Madam would come to pick up the Marquis? Why is it the Third Branch's servant who came?
