In this way, Dong Sui’s purpose of coming to Bai Mansion was achieved.

She pulled Xiao Tianle and prepared to say goodbye and leave: "Brother, cousin, since I have completed the task entrusted by cousin Jingqiu, I will not disturb you two. I will go back first."

Bai Li quickly called her: "A Sui!"

Dong Sui raised his eyes: "Brother, what's wrong?"

Bai Li smiled and said, "It's rare for you to come here, so you should have dinner before leaving. Mother will be back soon, and she must want to see you and Xiao Tianle."

Jiu Wan stepped forward and held Dong Sui's hand: "Cousin, just listen to Cheng He and leave after dinner."

At this point, Dong Sui couldn't refuse, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, thank you for bothering me then."

Bai Li bent down and picked up little Tianle: "Come on, uncle will take you to play."

Xiao Tianle hugged Bai Li's neck and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, uncle."

The two of them went to play by themselves, leaving Dong Sui and Jiu Wan alone, and the atmosphere became a little cold for a moment.

Dong Sui spoke to ease the atmosphere: "This flower is really beautiful. It seems that the gardener put a lot of thought into it."

Jiu Wan nodded: "These are planted by Second Aunt. She is the one who takes care of the flower gardens in the mansion, so the flowers in this mansion bloom better than those in many other places."

Dong Sui couldn't help but remain silent.

She didn't expect that the gardener was actually the second aunt.

In the current situation, it would be wrong for her to continue praising Jiuwan as he said, but it would also be wrong for her to change the subject and not praise him.

Jiu Wan saw through her mischief and couldn't help but laugh, "Cousin, are you afraid that I will mind Second Aunt's affairs?"

Dong Sui smiled and nodded: "Yeah."

Jiu Wan stroked the hair on her chest and said, "Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Besides, I am the principal wife, and they are just concubines."

"If I am happy, I will reward them with gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin. If I am unhappy, I can beat or scold them with just a word. What is there for me to be upset about?"

"Besides, each of these concubines has her own strengths. For example, the eldest concubine is good at abacus and can help with the accounting; the second concubine is good at growing flowers and can make the mansion beautiful; the third concubine is good at making incense and can help with sleep and soothe the mind; the fourth concubine..."

Jiuwan spoke softly, enumerating the strengths of the concubines.

She spoke without prejudice or hostility.

It sounded more like a reference to a family member.

Dong Sui couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw this: "I feel relieved that you think so."

Jiu Wan smiled and said, "If Cheng He doesn't understand, I will definitely be jealous. However, Cheng He is devoted to me, so how can I compete with these unfortunate women?"

"The Bai Mansion is their shelter, but it is my home. It is my responsibility to run this home, isn't it?"

Dong Sui nodded: "Cousin, you have really changed a lot. You have grown up and become more sensible."

Jiuwan smiled and didn't respond.

The two walked together in the yard.

At this time, Jiu Wan suddenly said: "Cousin, do you think I can be a good mother?"

Dong Sui didn't say anything immediately. Following Jiuwan's gaze, she saw Bai Li taking little Tianle to play.

The sunlight sprinkled softly, shining on the two of them, coating them with a gentle golden glow.

She could not help but provoke missionary work.

She knew the answer.
