The daughter-in-law that Madam Wang originally had her eyes on was not Hai, but a girl from her mother's family. It was the master and the old lady who chose Hai for the sake of Changbai's career.

When it came to the part where the new bride offered tea, Madam Wang acted like the mistress of the house.

Madam Wang said: "Chao Yun, since you have married into my family and become my daughter-in-law, you should know the rules and regulations. You are required to bear children, serve your parents-in-law, and assist your husband without any slackness."

When Hai heard this, she realized that her mother-in-law was setting rules for her as the new daughter-in-law.

Hai immediately replied: "My wife knows."

Mrs. Wang was interrupted by Changbai's new daughter-in-law before she finished speaking. She looked unhappy and said, "Don't interrupt when your mother-in-law is talking."

Hai: "Yes, mother, please speak."

Madam Wang: "From now on, all the children born to Concubine Changbai will be your children."

Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbai both showed guilty looks on their faces.

Hai's face also changed, and she had a bad feeling in her heart. What did her mother-in-law mean by this? What did she mean by a concubine's child? Was it her child?

The rules of the Hai family do not allow men to have concubines. If a girl from the Hai family cannot give birth to a child, the man can only take a concubine when he is 40 years old. The Sheng family also knows this. Why tell her this at this time? Did Changbai already have a concubine before she entered the mansion?

Hai: "What do you mean, mother? When the Sheng family came to propose marriage, they made it very clear. According to the rules of our Hai family, a man can only take a concubine if he is in his early forties and has no children."

Mrs. Wang's expression was somewhat embarrassed.

The problem is not that there are concubines, but that there are several pregnant concubines.

Oh, it's true. Not to mention Hai, even if she encountered Changbai's behavior, she would not be able to accept it.

Madam Wang secretly glared at her disappointing son. He couldn't control his lower body and caused such a big mess that she had to clean up.

Madam Wang: "Chao Yun, you are wrong to say that. You have already married into our Sheng family. You are our daughter-in-law and should abide by our family rules. Besides, every master has a concubine. As the principal wife, you should be generous."

"Your mother is right." Sheng Hong nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Sheng Hong felt embarrassed for his son.

Look at what this is doing.

Hai was about to open her mouth to refute, but Sheng Changbai held her hand.

Sheng Changbai didn't want Hai to be embarrassed on her first day.

Madam Wang: "Changbai, take your wife back quickly. It's better for you to explain some things to her yourself."

He never expected that his mother would ignore him and run away from the battlefield, so he had no choice but to say, "Mother, I'll take my leave first."

Hai was dragged away by Sheng Changbai. Sheng Changbai looked at Hai and hesitated for several times. How should he tell Hai about this? He really didn't have the courage to tell Hai that several concubines in his backyard were pregnant.

His behavior was so obvious that it was hard for her not to notice something. And what her mother-in-law said when she was greeting her parents-in-law just now made it hard for her not to think too much.

Hai: "Is there something your family is hiding from me?"

Sheng Changbai: "Chaoyun, I am a man, it is impossible that I don't have a concubine in the backyard..." Before Sheng Changbai finished his words, he was interrupted by Hai Chaoyun.

"It's okay, I can understand. Those were things that happened before I came into the family. Now I'm helping mother manage the household, and I will definitely not treat them unfairly." Hai's heart was bleeding, but she still had to pretend to be magnanimous in front of him.

It was impossible to promote a concubine. As the daughter of the Hai family, how could she tolerate having concubines and mistresses in her husband's backyard?

Once we figure out the identities of his concubines, we'll find a suitable reason to get rid of them.

Sheng Changbai felt a warm current in his heart. He was moved by her magnanimity.

Then he thought again, there were more than just concubines in his backyard, and all of them were pregnant.

Sheng Changbai: "Chao Yun, I can assure you that even if they give birth to children in the future, I will never raise them as aunts. Just like mother said, they will only call you mother."

"Child?" Hai's heart skipped a beat. Another child? Her bad premonition grew stronger.

Hai: "What do you mean? Does your concubine in the backyard already have a child?"

Sheng Changbai observed her expression and answered truthfully: "She is pregnant, but the baby hasn't been born yet."

Hai was furious and could no longer maintain the magnanimous expression on her face.

Hai: "Sheng Changbai, how could you do this to me?" She had never felt so embarrassed as today. She had just married into the family, and her husband's concubine was already pregnant.

Seeing that she was a little emotional, Sheng Changbai tried to comfort her: "Chaoyun, don't get excited. Listen to me. If you can't accept it, I can send them all to the manor and they won't get in your way."

"This is not just an eyesore. You, the Sheng family, have gone too far and are bullying others too much. You, the Sheng family, are clearly committing marriage fraud." Hai cried.

The two quarreled a little louder, and Yang Buzhi could hear it clearly even though he was not in the inner courtyard.

As soon as Hai came home, she was happy to be a mother. She must have felt so depressed. However, the more she saw that Hai was unhappy, the happier she felt.

There was one thing that Hai said that was true. In order to marry into the Hai family, the Sheng family concealed the fact that their concubine was pregnant before the marriage, which was suspected of being a marriage fraud.

Sheng Changbai was so heartless that he promised Hai that he would never raise concubines and would send them away if he thought they were a nuisance.

But he couldn't be sent to Quanzhou like Shuxu. He had to at least stay in Bianjing.

The Sheng family is wealthy. Even when their daughters got married, the family gave them land, silver, shops, etc. as subsidies. Although the child in her belly is not a member of the Sheng family, at least he has the surname Sheng. For the sake of being a member of the Sheng family, she cannot let anyone of the Sheng family suffer.

I don’t know how Sheng Changbai and Hai discussed it. There has been no result after several days.

The plot ends here. Yang Hao remembers that it was at this time that Gu Tingye's concubine Man Niang abandoned her daughter and ran away with her son.

Although Man Niang is an actress, she is resourceful, pitiful, and good at acting, but men just like this, otherwise she would not have hooked up with Gu Tingye and given birth to a son and a daughter for him.

Gu Tingye has not married yet, but he already has a son and a daughter born to him by his concubine. It was Sheng Minglan who told Gu Tingye that Man Niang had evil intentions and asked him to be wary of Man Niang. Gu Tingye did listen to Sheng Minglan and was on guard against Man Niang. He had to find a way to keep Man Niang by his side.

Although Yang Hao cannot go out now, she can pay points and control the system to do things. She immediately placed an order in the system mall.
