"Master, you better give me an answer today! My Xiaochun is already a 17-year-old girl, and I can't afford to delay you! Today, the eldest master beat our Xiaochun in front of this masked woman!"

After the nanny finished speaking, she pulled Han Xiaochun's hand away, revealing the five clear slap marks on his face.

"Master and Madam! My Xiaochun does not ask for the position of the eldest master's wife. She only asks for a concubine. Is that not even possible?" Wang Juhua burst into tears.

Zhou Chuang and his wife stood there, looked at each other, and sighed in their hearts.

Over the years, this wet nurse has been gaining more and more power in the Zhou Mansion just by cutting her own flesh to save people, and has been in a high position for many years.

In the mansion, they lived in the same room as their master, ate the same food, and even wore clothes made of the same material. They bullied other servants and did many disgusting things.

She even asked the government to give her family a house.

Although the mistress of the house has some means, why would she tolerate them doing this?

When this happened, the wet nurse told everyone she met about it, and many people in Beijing knew about it.

If you handle it improperly, you will be labeled ungrateful, and Zhou An, Zhou Jin, and the already married Zhou Xian will be discredited, making it impossible for the men in the Zhou family to get married.

So much so that when Zhou An saw Han Xiaochun and the nanny, he wanted to run away! He ran far away and rarely went home.

Zhou Chuang was the eldest wife, and his half-brother Zhou Chong and his family also lived in the mansion.

Zhou Chong has three sons and two daughters.

Zhou Chong's three sons were neither good at literature nor martial arts. The eldest, Zhou Yi, managed his family's shop, the second, Zhou Heng, managed the fields and farm, and the third, Zhou Zhi, was a scholar.

Shi Yi leaned close to Liu Feng's ear and said a few words to him.

Afterwards, Liu Feng glanced at Zhou An:

"Sir, we are leaving first. When you have dealt with your family affairs, please send someone to the old place to inform us."

After saying that, Huixue carried the medicine box on her back and walked towards the door, guarding Shi Yi from the front and the back.

Zhou An quickly followed and sent Shi Yi out.

At this moment, Zhou Chuang and his wife's expressions could no longer be described as ugly.

After leaving the door, Zhou An bowed and said, "I'm sorry for embarrassing you today, young lady."

"It doesn't matter. What will your family do next?" Shi Yi blinked.

Sighing, Zhou An said angrily:

"Because of this matter, I am nineteen years old and still unmarried. I have been fighting for so many years, and it seems that I can't escape now. I have to marry this cruel and ruthless woman. I have seen her beat servants and injure maids. I have also seen her secretly pinch her eldest brother's daughter. She even enjoys bullying beggars and poor people outside the mansion."

Shi Yi sighed silently:

"This family has been fooled for so many years. I wonder how they will feel when the truth comes out."

"Zhou An, do you believe me?"

Zhou An nodded without hesitation.

Shi Yi looked at Zhou An who was frowning beside her and said affirmatively: "Don't look so sad. Do you need my help?"

"Can you really help me?"

Shi Yi looked at her nails and nodded vigorously.

"Let me ask you a question. Have you slept with that Han Xiaochun?"

Zhou An asked him without hesitation, and his face immediately turned red as if blood was dripping.

"Of course not! I have mysophobia and would never do such a thing! Besides, I have to be responsible for my future wife! I expect her to be chaste, and I will definitely be chaste myself!"

After Zhou An finished saying this, Shi Yi keenly noticed that a servant at the door of the house curled up the corner of his mouth.

Shi Yi also smiled with her eyes curved.

"That's easy! Come here!"

When Shi Yi explained the situation, Zhou An got so angry that his nose became crooked!

After giving him some advice and leaving some things behind, Shi Yi took Liu Feng Hui Xue and left Zhou's house.

In Zhou Jin's yard, the farce continued.

In the room, Zhou Jin, whose anesthetic had just worn off, screamed in pain.

"Tell them to get out!

Zhou Chuang saw that his beloved youngest son was still sick, and the wet nurse and her daughter dared to be so presumptuous!

It seems that some people's hands need to be chopped off!

Enough of the comfortable days these years!

Zhou Chuang narrowed his eyes:

"The maids and servants of this hospital, take good care of your Second Young Master and carefully nurse him according to the instructions of the miracle doctor. When the Second Young Master recovers from his illness, he will be rewarded handsomely. Everyone else, return to your rooms."

"Yes!"

In a moment, everyone in the yard left except the wet nurse and Han Xiaochun.

The two of them were left, looking at Zhou Chuang in front of them with horror and surprise.

Zhou Chuang put his hands behind his back and swept his sharp eyes over the two trouble-making women in front of him.

They were just being domineering on weekdays, and were rarely at home due to their busy official duties. Sometimes, the lady would turn a blind eye to their affairs out of consideration for their past affection.

Unexpectedly, it made them bolder and more greedy.

Zhou Chuang glanced at them:

"Go back to your room and don't come out for three days!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Han Xiaochun and her daughter looked at each other, and finally helped each other up with embarrassed brows and went back to their room.

"Mother, what do you think the master means today?"

Han Xiaochun and his mother returned to the room, took a bath, and sat at the table to drink tea and eat snacks.

Wang Juhua, the wet nurse, took a bite of the osmanthus cake, drank a sip of tea slowly, and then said viciously:

"I don't care what he thinks! Anyway, after so many years, everyone has gotten used to it. I am Zhou An's benefactor, the benefactor of the entire Zhou family! He dares not to burn the bridge after crossing it! Unless Zhou An and Zhou Jin don't want to have a good reputation anymore!"

Han Xiaochun felt relieved after hearing his mother's insightful and affirmative words.

"But mother, is it true that no one knows about what happened back then?" Han Xiaochun asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry! Because I was the one who poisoned the young master, so I naturally know how to detoxify him! Otherwise, how could my remedy be so effective?"

After Wang Juhua finished speaking, she took a bite of the braised beef with a smile on her face.

"So that's how it is!" Han Xiaochun woke up as if from a dream.

"Then the eldest young master should marry you now, right? I made such a big fuss!" Wang Juhua rolled her eyes.

Han Xiaochun's expression was visibly nervous and reserved, and he kept fiddling with the handkerchief in his hands:

"Mom, what do you think of the second branch of the Zhou family?"

"How is it? Not so good! Now I live in the same house with the first wife, marry off my daughter-in-law, go out to do business, and still say that I am the mansion of the Minister of Rites. Without the first wife, I am nothing!"

Wang Juhua rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand to pinch her arm, and twisted it hard: "Tell me! What happened?"

"It hurts, it hurts! Mom! I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" Han Xiaochun covered his arm with tears in his eyes.

"That's right, the Second Master said that he liked me, hugged me, and said that he would marry me in the future..."

Wang Juhua's head was buzzing, and she felt as if she had been kicked by a donkey, and everything went dark before her eyes.

She grasped her daughter's arm tightly, looked into her eyes, and said through gritted teeth:

"Who are you talking about? Second Master? Zhou Jin or Zhou Heng?"

Han Xiaochun looked at his mother, whose eyes turned red and who seemed to have gone crazy in an instant, and lowered his head, not daring to speak.

"Han Xiaochun, raise your head! Answer me, who is it! What did you do!" Wang Juhua was hysterical at this time...
