Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

"What good ideas do you have?" Li Yuyan looked at her with bright eyes, "It would be best if the old lady could give up completely and stop having any other plans against me."

Wei Bingyan grumbled at him, "You usually have a head full of bad ideas, how come you can't think of a way to deal with the old lady? Besides, your study is full of important documents, can any maid go in at will? Can't you let Bichun guard outside?

Whether she has a chance to get what she wants depends on you, doesn't it? If you are not interested in her, even if she... you will not move at all!"

Li Yuyan stared at her with a smile that grew stronger and stronger. If he didn't understand her, how could he hear the sourness in her tone?

Wei Bingyan was slightly annoyed by his gaze and twisted his arm in a bad tone, "I went through so much trouble to get a Meili, and now there's a Bichun. Maybe there will be another Bichun in a few days. Your good cousin looks at you every day and feels like you are a heartless man.

How could I not know before that you were attracting peach blossoms like that? Mother was right. I shouldn’t have been so nice to you…”

From ancient times to the present, I have never seen a mother-in-law favoring her daughter-in-law and nagging her own son... The mother in his family is really an extremely weird flower!

"This has nothing to do with me. I definitely don't have any other thoughts about you. Except for you in front of me...I won't be moved by any other woman." Li Yuyan grabbed her hand and spoke with certainty.

This is not a guarantee, it's clearly a flirtation with her! Wei Bingyan glanced at him, her pretty face slightly flushed, "Then you can figure out a solution for this matter yourself."

"Didn't you just help me think of a solution?" Li Yuyan hugged her shoulders and said with a smile, "No one except you is allowed to enter my study. The old lady wants Bichun to serve me in the study, but she has to be able to enter the study, right?"

Wei Bingyan slapped his hand away and asked Bai Binghui and the others to go in and clear away the leftovers. "I want to go over and see Senior Brother. I don't know how he feels right now."

Li Yuyan followed her out of the house and said, "No need to go. He's not at home. He just went to the pharmacy."

"He won't do anything stupid, right?" Wei Bingyan asked.

"Relax, he will know the limits." Li Yuyan said softly.

The two of them walked around the garden to digest their energy, then returned to the house to rest, remaining silent late into the night.

……

The next day, Li Yuyan entered the palace early in the morning.

After Wei Bingyan went over to greet Mrs. Li, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to Deyuan together.

Old Mrs. Li was having breakfast. When she saw her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law coming together, she was secretly unhappy. She had put in so much effort in the past and had given Wei Bingyan all kinds of instructions and hints, but how could she have known that this granddaughter-in-law was such an unruly person.

"In fact, the relationship between you two, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, is very good." After Old Master Li left the room, Old Lady Li's kind smile faded, and she looked at Mrs. Li indifferently and spoke with a hint of sarcasm.

"Yes, a family really needs to have good relationships." Mrs. Li replied with a smile.

Mrs. Li knew that she was no match for her daughter-in-law, so she looked at Wei Bingyan's belly harshly, "Any news?"

"Mom, it's only been a short time, how can there be news? Besides, Bingyan and Yu'er are still young, there's no rush." ​​Mrs. Li smiled grimly in her heart, knowing that this old woman only looked at her belly. She looked at her like that at that time, as if not getting pregnant in the second month of marriage was a serious sin, and she had to marry a concubine and a maid for her husband.

"It's already been four months. How much longer will it take?" Old Mrs. Li said with a stern face.

Wei Bingyan's eyes twitched slightly. It was already four months... She had just had her period a few days ago, so she was not pregnant yet.

"How can it be four months? Didn't she spend more than two months in Guanzhuang? Mother, you should worry less about men's affairs and enjoy yourself more. They know their own business." Mrs. Li kept cursing in her heart. Bingyan was only fifteen years old. It was a good thing that a fifteen-year-old girl was not pregnant. She didn't want to be a grandmother so early!

"If you are too tired, just pick a few obedient maids to serve Yu'er. No matter what, it is better to have a child immediately." Old Mrs. Li glanced at Mrs. Li coldly. She hated such a daughter-in-law who always went against her.

Wei Bingyan smiled and said, "Grandma, Bingyan is not tired. Serving the master is what I should do."

"I'm not saying you shouldn't, but there are some things you shouldn't learn. As a daughter-in-law, you should be magnanimous and not be so stingy all the time." The old lady glanced at Mrs. Li and scolded Wei Bingyan.

Wei Bingyan wanted to argue again, but when she saw Mrs. Li gave her a look, she stopped talking.

"Mother, you once said that the Li family has its own rules. The Li family is a family of poetry and etiquette, and the requirements for legitimate and illegitimate children are very high. Bingyan and Yu'er have just got married, and you want to let such a maid and that woman get close to Yu'er. What if those maids get pregnant first?

It was you who said at that time that before the first wife got pregnant, no other concubines or maids could get pregnant. Have you forgotten that?" Mrs. Li said it in a light and detailed manner.

This tone was a little mocking. Anyway, it was true that she and such an old woman did not get along. She accepted the fact that the old woman always said that she was disobedient, so there was no need for her to pretend to be a filial daughter-in-law.

But Bingyan was different, after all, she had just entered the door, and she didn't want Bingyan to violently collide with the old woman at this time.

Old Mrs. Li's lips twitched twice. She naturally knew what her daughter-in-law meant by her words. At that time, she had been married to the Li family not long ago, and she sent all the maids around the old master away to get married. Before she became pregnant, she forced these concubines to drink contraceptive soup. Many years had passed, and she didn't know how Guan Lanxiao knew about it, but she always used this matter to provoke her from time to time.

"It's not that we want these maids to get pregnant. We just want them to help take care of Yu'er so that Bingyan won't be too tired." The old lady looked unhappy and spoke coldly.

She was confused. Since she was not going to send a woman to her son, why was the daughter-in-law so nervous?

Wei Bingyan sighed deeply in her heart. Her husband shouldn't look at other women too much. It was normal for other people's husbands to be surrounded by beautiful women. This old lady's idea was too self-centered.

"How can you be so tired? Mother, you complain about the hardship every day because you worry about men's affairs. Why don't I buy a few maids to help serve you and the old master?" Mrs. Li said with a smile.

After I came back, I found out that my husband and son's study rooms had both been equipped with pretty maids.

Many years have passed, but the old woman's nature has not changed, so she decided to use her own method to retaliate against her to see how she can still jump around.

"No need!" The old lady refused firmly and resolutely in a tone, "Humph, I know you think I'm a nuisance, so you wish I could leave the capital immediately, so that you and your mother can satisfy their wishes."

"My daughter-in-law doesn't have the courage. We would be happier if you lived in the capital. I'm just afraid that you would miss your brother and sister-in-law, as well as your great-grandchildren." Mrs. Li said with a smile.

The old lady has always protected the eldest daughter-in-law, but she is also very partial to the youngest son. She just finds Mrs. Li annoying. Now that she has been in the capital for several months, she really misses her eldest son's great-grandchildren.

But Guan Lanxiao had to bring it up, and she felt uncomfortable no matter how she listened, "You just wish I could die sooner, so I won't be an eyesore."

"Your daughter-in-law sincerely wishes you a long life." Mrs. Li looked at the old woman with satisfaction as she became so angry that she lost control of her words. Getting angry occasionally is good for the mind and body, as it prevents the elderly from living too comfortably and thinking too much.

After being interrupted by Mrs. Li, the old lady couldn't say the many things she wanted to say about Wei Bingyan. In order to avoid fainting from anger, the old lady sent both Mrs. Li and Wei Bingyan away.

Out of sight, out of mind! For many years, she had not been able to talk to Guan Lanxiao. She really didn't know what her son saw in such a woman. Not to mention her background, even her words and actions were not like those of a lady. It was really... really a disgrace to the Li family!

After coming out of the Virtue Courtyard, Mrs. Li said to Wei Bingyan, "No matter how many women the old lady gives to Yu Yan, you can't soften your attitude. Although I believe my son won't make mistakes, you have to know that a mistress is a mistress. She can do anything despicable. Sometimes men get carried away and something might go wrong."

She firmly believes that monogamy can make her small family happier. It's not that she is partial to Bingyan, but she hopes that her small family will not have any evil tricks, and finally use innocent lives as chips in gambling, just to compete for favor and love, and to win the occasional mercy of the man she is fighting for.

She had seen too many such exciting plots on TV and in wonderful novels.

Wei Bingyan was completely confused after hearing this. "Mom, what is a mistress? What is on your mind?"

Sometimes the master's words are really confusing and hard to figure out!

It was really hard to defend herself against this. Mrs. Li patted Wei Bingyan on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, you should remember that it is not natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. You should be as hard as stone when you need to be."

Wei Bingyan agreed with a smile and returned to her own courtyard. She heard from others that Li Yuyan had returned and was in the study in the south wing, so she went to the study.

Before I reached Li Yuyan's study, I heard the sound of a quarrel coming from here.
