The Second Young Lady had a bad feeling in her heart.

This mother-in-law is always trying to make people unhappy!

She is especially good at finding faults with her daughter-in-law. In the past, she would always say things that her mother-in-law liked and praise her highly.

But a few days ago, when her mother-in-law asked her to take care of her mother-in-law, she found an excuse and declined.

Now that she thought about it, her mother-in-law must have held a grudge against her, but she heard that Meng Ruoxi didn't come to the old man's place either, so how could she be blamed alone?

The Second Young Lady thought maliciously in her heart that the Master had been married for so long but still had no children, and Meng Ruoxi was still a hen that had not laid eggs, but she had given birth to a boy in her first pregnancy.

If you really count it, she is the great contributor to the entire Li Mansion.

Everyone in this mansion should look up to her. Wasn't this old lady clear-headed before? But now that she's sick, she's become confused.

Moreover, her mother-in-law promised her to keep the dowry of her eldest uncle's wife, Meng Ruoxi, for her.

When she gives birth to another daughter, she will give all the huge dowry to her daughter.

Thinking of this, the Second Young Lady's arrogance, which had just been rekindled after being frustrated in front of her mother-in-law, Old Lady Li, became arrogant again.

Even his neck straightened up a lot, waiting for what Old Lady Li would say.

She didn't believe that Old Lady Li could do anything to her.

Old Mrs. Li saw all the changes in her expression. They all made a living in a large house with a deep courtyard. She was previously blinded by one thing, but a serious illness made her have a new understanding of her daughter-in-law.

She finally concluded that he was not a good person. He was relying on the fact that she gave birth to a boy and he might come to her for help at any time.

Now, we must put an end to this trouble once and for all!

"Yueniang, Cui'er is fifteen years old now, right?" asked the old lady of the Li family to the nanny beside her.

They all make a living in the backyard. They may not have other skills, but they have mastered the ability to read people's expressions. What Old Lady Li asked couldn't be clearer.

Although she didn't want her daughter to be someone's concubine, she couldn't refuse the offer. Besides, for those of them who had signed a death contract and were family slaves, they would probably never be allowed to leave the house. It would be better for them to stay in the house. Even if they couldn't be concubines, being a maid and serving one person was better than serving a group of people. Then, if they gave birth to a boy or a girl, they wouldn't have to worry about the rest of their lives.

So Yue Niang hurried back: "Reporting to the old lady, in a few days I will be sixteen."

"Ok!"

Old Lady Li responded and continued, "Since the second daughter-in-law has to take care of my brother and is busy, I think she can't take care of Erlang either. Then I'll take Cui'er in. I've watched Cui'er grow up. She's a good person. I think Di will be able to share the worry!"

After she finished speaking, just as Yue Niang expected, she stood respectfully aside and massaged Old Lady Li's shoulders with moderate strength.

Old Lady Li half-closed her eyes in comfort and asked, "Yue Niang, let Xiao Cui'er be Erlang's concubine. Do you think you are willing?"

Instead of asking the Second Young Madam, he asked the servants first.

Yue Niang naturally knew that this was done for the Second Young Madam to see, and it was nothing more than to dampen her arrogance.

She didn't want to offend the wife, nor did she want to offend the second young lady.

I could only reply respectfully, "It's up to the master!"

Old Mrs. Li was busy fighting with her daughter-in-law and didn't pay attention to these details at all.

Upon hearing this, the Second Young Madam was very much dissatisfied!

Who would be willing to let their husband take a concubine?

The Second Young Mistress could no longer hold on to her smile and raised her voice to stop him: "I don't agree!"

Hearing this, Old Lady Li finally raised her eyelids and lectured, "You are so jealous and ignorant, how can you be worthy of being a lady? I think you should not take my son with you. Bring him to Shou'an Hall. There are maids here after all, don't let him be led astray."

The Second Young Lady didn't expect that she came here today to ask for some benefits, but now she has lost both her wife and her army.

This old witch, why doesn’t she just die?

The Second Young Lady thought with gnashing teeth in her heart, but she didn't dare say anything on the surface, for fear that Old Lady Li would do something strange again.

However, she would never let go of this son.

So she had to compromise and said, "Mother-in-law is really thoughtful. I was just ignorant. Cui'er was born and raised in the mansion. She is familiar with the rules of the mansion and the second master. I can rest assured to take care of her."

This means that he agrees to let Xiao Cui enter the Second Master's room.

However, the Second Young Lady went on to say, "Now that Xiao Cui is here, I think my daughter-in-law will have more energy to take care of my son. My mother-in-law has just recovered from a serious illness, so it's better for her to rest quietly. My son is very noisy, and I'm afraid he will disturb my mother-in-law's peace!"

"Forget it, forget it, just look at me! You should be sensible and virtuous in front of me. Our Li Mansion is a wealthy family after all. Don't be petty like you are today and bring shame to our Li Mansion!"

Old Mrs. Li taught.

It was already very irritating to the Second Young Lady's ears to hear this, but after all, her mother-in-law had the final say in the backyard, and she could not prevail against her mother-in-law, so she gritted her teeth and swallowed the bad breath.

"Mother-in-law, please have a good rest. I will take my leave now."

The Second Young Lady didn't want to stay in Shou'an Hall for a moment. If she stayed any longer, she was worried that she would be angered to death on the spot.

Why am I so unlucky today!

What bad luck!

Old Mrs. Li was too lazy to open her eyes. She waved her hand in disgust and let her go!

The second young lady was about to leave when she was stopped. She said, "Let's take Cui'er back to the yard. It's better to do it today than to wait for a better day."

Hearing this, the faint smile on the Second Young Madam’s face almost couldn’t be maintained!

I could only spit in my heart! What bad luck!

Then Xiao Cui lowered her head and followed the second young lady out of Shou'an Hall and walked towards her own yard!

I walked out of the hanging flower gate and went to the middle courtyard, where I ran into Meng Ruoxi.

I saw Meng Ruoxi swinging on the swing in the yard with a cute and innocent look on her face.

Although she is married, she still looks like a girl, innocent and carefree.

She had heard early on that her mother-in-law had returned Meng Ruoxi's dowry, so when she saw Meng Ruoxi so happy, she became even more unhappy.

Those dowries are for her future daughter!

She walked forward and said, "Sister-in-law is so leisurely and elegant!"

Hearing this, Meng Ruoxi looked over with her round eyes, and seeing a mocking look on the man's face, she thought that this man must have had some bad luck somewhere, which had brought bad luck upon her.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to play?"

Meng Ruoxi looked like she was giving it to you.

Although Meng Ruoxi is the eldest sister-in-law, she is much younger than the second young lady.

"childish!"

The Second Young Lady said this and followed Xiao Cui away.

However, when they passed each other, Meng Ruoxi heard something very harsh.
