The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

"Pah! Dream on! So what if I get up early to practice martial arts, read books in the morning, and study military strategy in the afternoon? Do you think I'm that easy to give in to? You're all just waiting to see me make a fool of myself, aren't you? Just you wait, when I become a master of both martial arts and literature, I'll beat you all down and make you laugh at me."

Ding Zekun waved his hands, making gestures like a lion baring its teeth and claws! The surrounding maids and servants all lowered their heads, trying not to laugh.

Ding Zekun watched Sun Caiwei walk further and further away and called out from behind, "Sister-in-law, I'll listen to you. I'll get up tomorrow and practice martial arts with Ziqing. You have to keep your word. You can't kick me out. Look how weak I am. If you kick me out, I'll be homeless."

Zijuan, Sun Caiwei's personal maid, said with a smile, "Third Master is really working hard now. I wonder how long he can keep it up."

Sun Caiwei shook her head: "I don't know, but Zekun isn't a bad person. He's smart enough, but a little lazy. If you guide him properly, he'll definitely do well! Back then, the old lady only cared about the second master, so she neglected him. Luckily, he didn't stay with the old lady, otherwise he would have been spoiled by him long ago."

Zijuan said, "Yes, so Third Master actually benefited from this misfortune; otherwise, he would definitely have been kicked out of the manor today."

"Yes, the Marquis and I have already planned out his path; now it's up to him to get on the right track. Go and inform the tutor that tomorrow is the Third Master's first day of classes. Tell him to keep a close eye on him and not to slack off!"

Also, instruct the kitchen to prepare something nice for Third Master tomorrow. You always have to give a child a little something after a slap, otherwise this brat might really go on and on if you push him too far.

Zijuan smiled and pushed open the door: "Madam, you really dote on Third Master. You don't even treat the Heir Apparent this well! Third Master must have accumulated a lot of good karma in his past life to have a sister-in-law like you."

"That's different. Zikun was the first child I brought with me after I married into the family. Although he wasn't my biological child, he was no different from my own. Later, Ziqing was born, and they were raised together from a young age. So, raising one child or raising two doesn't really make a difference."

They've always been by her side. Even if you don't say an elder sister-in-law is like a mother, a child raised from childhood will always receive more care. Having a mother like that is just one of those things. Fortunately, the child hasn't turned out too badly; at least she can distinguish right from wrong, knows how to be grateful, and knows when to advance and retreat—she's not inherently bad.

Ziqing has always been sensible and rarely caused me any worry. The only thing that has ever troubled me is his marriage. Fortunately, his marriage has now been settled, and I can finally put my mind at ease.

When Yan'er came to break off the engagement, I truly never imagined that this child's feelings for Yan'er would be so deep. He even wanted to become a nun for her sake! How did our Marquis's mansion produce such a lovelorn fool? I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing.”

"Madam, isn't the young master's devotion inherited from the Marquis? Look at our Marquis, he's famous for spoiling his wife, and he hasn't even had a maid or concubine by his side all these years."

"For over a decade, I have served you faithfully, and you have been the one to make all the decisions in the household. The Marquis has stated that the Marquis's household is run by the Lady; as long as she approves, there are no problems. Anyone who displeases her will be punished, at best with a beating, at worst, sold off!"

Sun Caiwei was hearing this for the first time: "There's more to this story? How come I didn't know? When did you hear about it?"

Zijuan smiled and said, "On the second day after you entered the household, the Marquis summoned all the servants and maids in the mansion and spoke to them in front of everyone. As a maid who accompanied you in your dowry, I naturally had to listen to the Marquis's instructions, but the Marquis did not allow me to tell you."

"I never expected my husband to be so thoughtful. That explains why, after I took over the household and someone challenged me, I never saw them again. Did your Marquis deal with them all?"

Sun Caiwei suddenly remembered a steward who had repeatedly provoked her when she was in charge of the household. Then one day, the steward came to report that the steward had suddenly fallen seriously ill and gone back to his hometown to recuperate. And just then, another person came to the household to apply for a steward position!

She was still thinking, what a coincidence! It's like heaven is helping me. I never imagined it was my husband who was secretly supporting me. Thinking of this, Sun Caiwei felt a warmth in her heart. It turns out her husband had done so much for her behind the scenes.

"Yes, Madam! Although the Marquis has not interfered in the affairs of the inner quarters for many years, he has always paid attention to what happens on your side. We servants report everything to the Marquis, no matter how small."

Otherwise, why do you think the Marquis would have arrived at the Feng residence so promptly after Mo Yun and Mo Yu returned that day?!

"I knew it! That's why my husband arrived so promptly that day. It turns out he didn't go out at all. After bringing me to the Feng residence, has he been keeping an eye on things here?" Sun Caiwei realized a little late!

"Madam, have you forgotten? You still have the hidden guards that the Marquis gave you. When you said you wanted to return to the Marquis's mansion and ask the Marquis to come and re-present the betrothal gifts on behalf of the heir, the hidden guards immediately sent a message to the Marquis by carrier pigeon."

Upon hearing this, the Marquis immediately ordered an inventory of the storerooms and preparation of the betrothal gifts. When the young master arrived at the Marquis's residence, everything was already arranged. Only then did he manage to reach the Feng residence in time to stop the old witch's mischief.

"I see! So, my husband really is..."

"What is Madam talking about behind my back again?" As the two were talking, Ding Yuhao walked in from outside the courtyard gate with a smile!

"How dare I! Lord Marquis is all-powerful, and I have eyes and ears everywhere around me. How could I dare to speak ill of Lord Marquis!" Sun Caiwei joked with a smile.

When the maid Zijuan saw the Marquis arrive, she waved and, along with the others, bowed and withdrew.

Sun Caiwei turned around, but he was gone. She turned back again, and Ding Yuhao had pulled her into his arms: "So you were too scared? Hmm~"

Sun Caiwei quickly reached out and pressed against Ding Yuhao's chest: "What are you doing? In broad daylight!"

Ding Yuhao grinned mischievously, "What's wrong, Madam? I just haven't seen you for a few hours and wanted to hug you. What? Do husband and wife have to pick a time to hug?"

Sun Caiwei blushed and said, "I...I didn't mean that!"

Ding Yuhao whispered in Sun Caiwei's ear, "Or does my wife only enjoy my embrace at night? Hmm~"

Sun Caiwei was held even tighter by Ding Yuhao. Feeling the changes in her husband's body, Sun Caiwei struggled even more fiercely: "Husband..." Her voice trembled!

When Ding Yuhao heard his wife call him "husband" with a trembling voice, it was clear that his wife was moved by his feelings!

So he scooped Sun Caiwei up in his arms and said, "My wife, I'd rather experience the joys of daytime than the embraces of the night! Ziqing is getting married soon, and I'd like to try my best to give him a younger brother or sister!"
