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

Yu Ningyao watched helplessly as Yu Kangjing brought his entire family to witness the event.

Apart from the second branch of the Marquis's family who were sent away, all the elders in the family were here.

She nestled in Shen Jinzhu's arms, utterly despondent.

As the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, Cui Ruixin stepped forward when she saw that her parents-in-law remained silent.

"Third brother, have you thought this through?"

“Sister-in-law, you don’t need to persuade me anymore. I’ve thought it through very clearly. I’m the one who picked up this child. I’ve done nothing wrong and I’m not afraid of scrutiny!” Yu Kangjing said righteously.

Cui Ruixin nodded: "Sister-in-law believes in you."

She then ordered someone to bring her a bowl of water.

Without hesitation, Yu Kangjing cut his hand and dripped the blood into the bowl.

Shen Jinzhu, carrying Yu Ningyao, also came over.

"Waaaaah." Yu Ningyao gripped her sleeve tightly, pouted, and started to cry.

"It won't hurt, sweetie, don't be afraid." Shen Jinzhu couldn't help but comfort her when she heard her cry.

Yu Ningyao stopped crying, sobbing uncontrollably.

She wasn't crying because she was afraid of the pain, but because she was afraid that her blood would mix together and she would be thrown out.

"This child really listens to you." Yu Kangjing blurted out subconsciously.

Shen Jinzhu pursed her lips and remained silent. She pricked Yu Ningyao's hand with a needle and drew a drop of blood, squeezing the blood into the bowl of water.

Everyone present held their breath.

They all waited anxiously for the results.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the two drops of blood rolled and merged together.

"What else do you have to say?" Shen Jinzhu looked at Yu Kangjing with disappointment and stuffed Yu Ningyao into his arms.

Yu Kangjing was completely dumbfounded.

"But, but she's really not my child!"

When Yu Ningyao saw that he was still holding a knife, she gritted her teeth, snatched it, and slashed Shen Jinzhu's palm, who was standing beside her.

"Ah—!" Shen Jinzhu exclaimed, staring at Yu Ningyao in disbelief.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Cui Ruixin shouted angrily, "This child cannot be allowed to live! At such a young age, he already knows how to hurt people!"

Yu Ningyao used all her strength to pull Shen Jinzhu's hand over.

The blood from her palm fell and dripped into the bowl, mingling with the blood of the two of them.

Yu Ningyao let out a long sigh of relief.

Great, we won the bet.

The maidservant quickly came up to stop Shen Jinzhu's bleeding.

"Third brother, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and send this child away. He's hurting your wife!" Cui Ruixin urged them when she saw them standing there in a daze.

"No... Sister-in-law... Look!" Yu Kangjing pointed blankly at the bowl of water.

Attracted by his words, everyone looked down at him.

"The blood of my third sister-in-law has also been mixed together?" Marquis Yu Kangping asked incredulously.

Yu Kangjing was even more confused.

"Madam, could this be a child we had sometime ago? Have we ever lost a child?"

Shen Jinzhu looked at him with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

What nonsense is my husband talking about?

“I haven’t been pregnant since I gave birth to Ziying. What do you think?” She glared at Yu Kangjing.

Yu Kangjing chuckled, touched his nose, and realized that what he had just said was somewhat absurd.

"That can't be it. But what exactly happened?" He stared suspiciously at the bowl of water with blood dripping from it.

Cui Ruixin felt somewhat annoyed.

She specifically ordered someone to add alum to the water so that no matter whose blood it was, it would mix together.

The third wife will definitely not keep the child then.

Unexpectedly, this toddler, who was just over a year old, ruined her plans.

She glared angrily at Yu Ningyao, pondering how to persuade the third wife not to keep the child.

Yu Ningyao pretended not to see it, made a few "ooh ooh ooh" noises, and took the knife to cut herself.

Shen Jinzhu reacted quickly and snatched the knife away.

"This child is probably treating the knife like a toy. Put it away right now!" she immediately ordered.

Taking the opportunity, Yu Ningyao reached out her hand and gave her a bright smile.

"Mommy, hug me!"

Shen Jinzhu's heart softened just like that.

Shen Jinzhu reached out to hug her, but she blew on her palm instead.

"Hoohoo!"

Yu Kangjing quickly said, "Madam, look, this child is concerned about you."

Shen Jinzhu finally accepted it.

"So be it, it's just a child. Since you're destined to be with him, and you want him to stay, then let him stay."

After the birth of Yu Ruowei, the daughter of the first wife, her husband frequently visited his little niece. She could see his affection and longing for his daughter.

However, due to her physical condition, she was unable to give birth to another daughter for her husband.

It would be better to grant his wish.

It's better than taking a concubine.

Yu Kangjing's face immediately lit up with joy, but he did not agree right away.

He said softly, "Madam, there's no need to force yourself. If you don't like this child, I'll find a good family for her to be sent away tomorrow. After all, you are the most important person."

Shen Jinzhu was immediately appeased by his words, and she found Yu Ningyao even more pleasing to the eye.

"Alright, if you like it, and the child is sensible, then let him stay."

Seeing that the family of three was about to finalize the matter, Cui Ruixin was very anxious.

She stepped forward and said, "But this child looks so much like my third brother. Won't there be gossip when he grows up?"

These words successfully made the old Marquis and his wife frown.

Their noble family has no shortage of children.

The third child is kind-hearted and they wouldn't object if he wanted to take in a child and adopt him.

But they wouldn't be happy if it damaged the reputation of the Marquis's mansion.

Yu Ningyao was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

What grudge did this mother hold against her that she was determined to drive her away?

When Marquis Yu Kangping heard his wife's words, he nodded in agreement.

"Third brother, your sister-in-law has a point. Why don't you find a good family to take the child away?"

Yu Ningyao's fists hardened.

What kind of parents are they? They're just bringing her bad luck!

Yu Kangjing glanced at Yu Ningyao in his arms, then at his elder brother, and couldn't help but say, "This child looks more like my elder brother than me."

These words startled Cui Ruixin.

"Third brother, your eldest brother isn't that kind of person."

Despite her denials, she couldn't help but compare the two.

She felt that Yu Kangjing was right.

This child does indeed resemble the Marquis somewhat.
