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

Shen Youxian was very pleased to see this.

Even if this child was adopted, just based on her protective attitude towards her mother, she is no worse than a biological child.

If his sister and brother-in-law ever feel that she is not their biological daughter, he will take her back to the Shen family and raise her himself!

Shen Jinzhu was so moved that she didn't know what to say.

She, who is always strong, shed tears at this moment.

It was her incompetence that allowed a child under two years old to stand in front of her and defend her.

Seeing this, Yu Ziheng and his brothers also stood up to defend their mother.

"Grandmother, you are mistaken. What does Father's disappearance have to do with Mother?"

"It was my father who took the initiative to accompany my mother back to her parents' home, so we can't blame my mother."

Their united appearance almost made the old lady furious.

"Your surname is Yu, not Shen. You went to the Shen family and accepted their money, and now you don't know your own surname anymore? How dare you openly talk back to your elders?" she said angrily.

The old lady's words also ignited the old marquis's anger.

What he dislikes most are merchants who prioritize profit over morality.

If it weren't for the betrothal arranged between his father and the old master of the Shen family, he would never have agreed to let a merchant's daughter marry into the Marquis's mansion.

Now, his grandsons are clearly not on their side anymore. They must have been corrupted by the gold and silver jewelry at the Shen family's house this month. How could he not be angry?

"Disrespecting your elders! Have all the manners I taught you been eaten by dogs? You're all going to kneel in the ancestral hall. Copy the family rules ten times before you come out!"

Upon hearing the old Marquis's words, Shen Jinzhu could no longer sit still and hurriedly said, "They are only trying to protect their mother and did not mean to contradict you or Mother. The child is still young, and the ancestral hall is cold and damp. Kneeling to copy books might hurt his health."

"Besides, the princess's family recognition banquet is the day after tomorrow, and as Yaoyao's brothers, they'll definitely have to go. If they injure their knees kneeling, then..."

Before Shen Jinzhu could finish speaking, the old Marquis and the old lady understood what she meant.

Finally, with a sullen face, he could only say, "Go back to your room and face the wall to reflect on your mistakes. You can go after you finish copying the family rules. If you don't finish copying them by the day after tomorrow, you are not allowed to go."

Shen Jinzhu added, "I'll listen to Father and Mother. But if Yaoyao's own brother can't go, then I suppose there's no need for my sister-in-law to bring the child along?"

"You're threatening me?" The old Marquis looked at her incredulously.

"Daughter-in-law wouldn't dare," Shen Jinzhu quickly lowered her head.

"I just don't understand, so I'm asking you two for advice."

"Get out. You must finish copying it." The old Marquis was furious and chased them away.

"Sister Jade, wait for me." Yu Ningyao didn't forget to pick up the gifts she had brought and take them with her.

The old Marquis and his wife stared wide-eyed.

Is there any reason to take back a gift that has been given?

Yu Ziying, being the most quick-witted, hurriedly said, "Sister Emerald, hurry up and help Yaoyao get her things. Grandparents don't like these things, so don't leave them here in their way. It wouldn't be good if they got angry."

As he spoke, he nudged his two older brothers, asking them to help carry the load.

They moved extremely quickly; before the old Marquis and his wife could even get angry and say anything, everything was moved away.

Shen Youxian was initially very angry, but after seeing what his mischievous nephews had done, he couldn't help but burst out laughing after leaving the old lady's courtyard.

"You little rascals!"

"I don't understand what my uncle is saying," Yu Ningyao pretended to be clueless.

Shen Jinzhu also laughed.

Shen Youxian couldn't help but sigh, "If I had known, I wouldn't have let you marry into the Marquis's family in the first place. What kind of childhood betrothal was that? It shouldn't have been valid. I've wronged you."

He looked at his sister with heartache.

His heart was breaking when his younger sister was bullied by the two elders of the Marquis's mansion.

"Second brother, don't say such things. I don't regret it." Shen Jinzhu smiled and shook her head.

"If I hadn't married my husband, how could I have such smart and adorable children like Ziheng and his brothers?"

“That’s true.” Shen Youxian nodded.

……

Cui Ruixin ordered her people to keep a close eye on the movements of the third branch of the family.

Upon learning that Shen Jinzhu and the others had angered her in-laws, she laughed heartily.

It was worth it for her to humbly serve her in-laws for a month; she finally regained her standing with them.

The daughter also successfully won over her in-laws' affections.

But the thought of the family reunion banquet the day after tomorrow made her unhappy again.

Her Vivi is clearly cute and smart.

Why did Princess Ning Le fall for that wild girl, Yu Ning Yao?

What a lack of vision.

"Madam, the Marquis has gone to Consort Chun's courtyard again, saying he'll be staying there tonight," the maid Qiu Chan reported nervously as she entered.

Why is she so unlucky that it's her turn to invite the Marquis?

Upon hearing this, Cui Ruixin's face darkened abruptly.

"This little vixen, even pregnant, doesn't stop her, she's still trying to seduce the Marquis."

She originally thought that Chunque, now pregnant, would not be able to keep the Marquis.

Unexpectedly, the Marquis became even more enamored with her and started visiting her more frequently.

Moreover, for the sake of the child in her womb, the Marquis is extremely vigilant, unlike when she was pregnant.

She simply couldn't find an opportunity to make a move.

She took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and stared at Qiu Chan in front of her.

Qiu Chan was somewhat flustered, wondering what the lady would want her to do next.

"Qiu Chan, you're seventeen now, it's time to choose a good family for you." Cui Ruixin looked her over, already having made up her mind.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Chan quickly shook her head: "This servant does not want to get married. This servant only wants to stay with Madam."

"Okay, then I'll give you a chance to stay with me forever." Cui Ruixin smiled slightly.

Qiu Chan felt a chill run down her spine.

"What does Madam want me to do?"

"How about I make you the Marquis's concubine?" Cui Ruixin pulled her to her side.

"This servant wouldn't dare. This servant is content to serve Madam for the rest of my life, I dare not even dream of becoming the Marquis's concubine." Qiu Chan was sweating profusely and quickly knelt on the ground.

“I’m serious. Your figure is far superior to Chun Que’s. The Marquis is just having a taste now; he’ll surely favor you even more in the future. With me helping to elevate you, are you afraid you can’t beat Chun Que?”

The more Cui Ruixin looked at Qiu Chan, the more she felt that Qiu Chan was the perfect knife in her hands.

Qiu Chan did not want to be a concubine. She already had someone she liked and only hoped that when she turned twenty, she could ask for a favor and get married out of the mansion.

A thought struck her, and she quickly said, "Madam, I have a better candidate."

"Oh? Tell me." Cui Ruixin stared at her, wanting to hear who she would recommend.
