"Oh, look at his features, they look just like the master."

The old nanny reached out to hold the child, but Mrs. Li subconsciously stepped back and hugged the child tightly. "The child was born prematurely and is weak. He can't be exposed to the wind or too many outsiders, so as not to pass the moisture to the child. Just send a maid to take care of him."

Mrs. Li made up a lot of stories, but if there were too many people around, the truth would inevitably be exposed, and the maid's secret would no longer be hidden.

"This matter must be reported to the master truthfully, in case anything happens to the young master..."

"Hiss." The old lady took a breath and looked unhappy. "Don't say that casually."

She glanced at the child from a distance but didn't dare reach out to hug him. If anything really happened to the young master, the first to suffer would be the servants like them, so she couldn't bring trouble upon herself.

……

Zijin Courtyard.

Ye Yunzi helped the eldest lady back. Along the way, the eldest lady looked unhappy and her steps were unsteady.

Ye Chongde followed quietly and came to Zijinyuan together.

When Aunt Zhao saw Ye Chongde following behind and about to step forward, she hurried over and stood in front of him, "Madam is not feeling well and is about to rest. Master, please go back."

Seeing that it was this old slave blocking the way again, Ye Chongde snorted angrily.

"What else can I do if I just want to say a few words to my wife? Get out of my way now."

"Master, please go back." Nanny Zhao said firmly, her face calm and not showing any weakness.

The eldest lady who was walking in front stopped, turned her head, glanced at Ye Chongde out of the corner of her eye, and then said lightly: "It's just right, I also have something to say to the master."

"Madam, this..." Nanny Zhao was worried. She had just seen Madam coughing secretly, and there was a little blood on her handkerchief. This was a sign that her body was about to fail. Doctor Tao had said that Madam must not be stimulated. If she became emotionally excited and the poison attacked her heart, even a god could not save her.

"Everyone, please leave." The eldest lady insisted.

She patted the back of Ye Yunzi's hand and nodded slightly, indicating that she could rest assured.

Ye Yunzi frowned, feeling uneasy, but seeing her mother's determined expression, she knew that she had something important to do.

"Mom, if you're not feeling well, don't push yourself."

"I know what's going on." The eldest lady nodded secretly, loosened her hand, and pushed Ye Yunzi aside.

Before long, there were only two people left in the hall. They hadn't had a peaceful chat for a long time. Su had waited for so many years, hoping that he would come back, but she didn't expect that he was a heartless person and would never change.

"Qinghe!"

Ye Chongde stared at Su for a long time. Su still looked like a girl. Although she looked haggard over the years, she still had a kind of fragile beauty. He was moved and all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.

"I was the one who let you down before. I don't have the face to see you because of what happened to Third Aunt."

"But you have to understand that no matter what, you are the only wife in the Ye Mansion. Others are at most concubines. You are the real head of the big house."

After hearing this, Su started to cough violently and became weak.

Ye Chongde looked at the person in front of him coldly. These days, Su had been refusing to see him on the pretext of feeling unwell. He didn't know whether she was really ill or just making excuses to stall him.

He looked Su up and down with a suspicious look.

"Cough cough!" Su coughed for a long time before slowly recovering.

"I've made up my mind." Ye Chongde continued, "You will be the one to raise the child born by the Third Aunt from now on. We will adopt the child directly under your name. We don't have any other children except Yunzi, so this child is ours."

"Master." Su interrupted coldly, her body trembling slightly.

What kind of nonsense is this? She hasn't been pregnant for ten years, all because of his poison, and now he wants to give her another concubine's child? Oh, this is a really good plan.

"Qinghe." Ye Chongde frowned, and when he saw Su's desperate eyes, his heart softened, and he tried to speak in a gentle tone, saying: "I am thinking of you. You have a son, so you won't be looked down upon. Help him in the future. When he becomes a high official, he can become Yunzi's backer, and Yunzi can stand up straight after getting married."

"Okay, it's settled." Ye Chongde made the decision himself.

Su clenched her fists in her sleeves, raised her head, looked straight at Ye Chongde and said, "Master, let's get a divorce."

"From now on, whether you help the Third Concubine to take the throne or marry someone new, I will not care... After the divorce, I will take Yunzi away from the Ye Mansion, and from now on, we will not interfere with each other and will never have anything to do with the Ye Mansion again."

Su looked calm and composed. She had been thinking about this for many months. At first, she was worried that people would talk about Yunzi if she left the Ye Mansion, so she didn't dare to mention it.

But now, enough is enough.

The Third Aunt is cruel and this time she wants to ruin Yunzi's reputation. If she succeeds, the consequences will be disastrous.

She no longer cared about the Ye Mansion or the wealthy aristocrats. She just wanted to protect her daughter.

……

Partial room.

Ye Yunzi put her ear against the door and listened quietly. When she heard her mother propose a divorce, she was shocked. She didn't expect her mother would really say the word "divorce".

"Miss." Nanny Zhao also heard what Madam said. Her eyes widened in disbelief. "Madam, what are you doing..."

"Shhh."

Ye Yunzi put her finger to her mouth and made a gesture of silence, indicating that she should continue listening.

"No." An angry voice sounded, and Ye Chongde stood up suddenly. He was so surprised that his voice became louder. "You want a divorce? No, I don't agree."

"You are my wife, Yunzi is my daughter, where will you go after the divorce?"

"I will bring Yunzi back to the Su family." Su said calmly. When she said this, her face turned slightly pale. She endured the fishy and sweet taste in her throat and did not cough.

"impossible."

Ye Chongde widened his eyes and glared at Su.

They want to go back to the Su family? What will the Su family think if they divorce? Grandpa Su's power, the gold and silver treasures of the Su family... If they divorce, all these will go down the drain, and maybe Grandpa Su will even bear a grudge and get angry.

No, absolutely not, there is no way of getting divorced.

He will never let Su go in this life.

"Qinghe, it looks like you need to calm down. I'll give you some time and I won't bother you again."

"Master." Su stood up, supporting herself on the table with one hand, and barely stood steady. She stared straight at Ye Chongde, confronting him face to face, "It's been so many years, enough. We have no feelings for each other anymore. You have ignored Zijinyuan all these years. What's the point of continuing like this?"

"..."

Ye Chongde looked at Su and was obviously panicked. He really didn't expect that Su would actually propose a divorce.

Yes.

He forgot how glorious and glorious the Su family was back then.

She was an excellent rider, her laughter was like a silver bell, her smile was as bright as a flower. Her red dress was like a ball of fire, burning him so much that he couldn't take his eyes off her. He was deeply infatuated with her.

But since when, the smile disappeared from her face, and her brows were filled with melancholy and indifference.

How is this going.
