Side Courtyard of Zuo Shilang's Mansion

Li Lan heard Wang Hai's crying in the study room, and tried his best to suppress the smile in his heart, restrained his emotions, raised his hand and knocked on the door gently, "Master, why do you drink so much? The servant said that you have been drinking since you came back."

"Bang" a wine jar hit the ground. "Get out, get out, all of you, get out, and leave me alone."

Seeing that he was so angry about this matter, Li Lan's smile deepened a little, and she said with a distressed look, "Master, please don't drink. I brought you some sobering soup. Drinking is too harmful to your health."

She pushed the door open and looked at Wang Hai lying on the ground. There was obvious disgust in her eyes. She gently wiped the dirt from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said softly, "Master, I brought you some sobering soup. Please drink a few sips! We still have sons and daughters! We can't ruin their bodies at will." Your sons and daughters are not grown up yet, and it's not time for you to die.

Wang Hai grabbed Li Lan's neck fiercely and asked viciously, "Is it you? Tell me, is it you who poisoned me? Tell me! You made me look bad on purpose. You want me to be unable to hold my head up for the rest of my life and be trapped with you for the rest of my life."

A tear fell from the corner of Li Lan's eye and dripped onto his hand. "Grandpa, please kill me! We are two children, and you still doubt me like this. Let me die! Wuuuu, Grandpa, how can you miss me like this! Wuuuu, how can I live?" She let go of his hand in despair, looking so pitiful that made people feel distressed.

Wang Hai's heart tightened, he loosened his hand that was pinching her, and suddenly hugged Li Lan, saying, "It's my fault. It's all my fault. We have been married for so many years, I shouldn't have doubted you. I was so angry. Lan'er is the most kind and virtuous, I shouldn't have doubted you."

Li Lan threw herself into his arms, crying her heart out, her shoulders shaking constantly, "Master, you doubt me, it really makes me want to die, how can I live like this! My heart aches as if it's being cut by a knife." She couldn't help but smile on her face buried in his arms.

Wang Hai's face was filled with growing guilt. He hugged her and coaxed her softly, "Don't cry, Lan'er. It's all my fault. I will live a good life with you from now on and take good care of our child. Don't go out to play. I will stay at home with you and your child."

Li Lan nodded slightly, picked up the soup bowl beside her, and fed him small sips. "Don't ruin your body. I feel bad for you. Take good care of yourself, and you will definitely get better."

Wang Hai was unusually obedient, drinking the hangover soup mouthful by mouthful, "Luckily, I have Lan'er who sticks with me and never leaves me, otherwise how would I live! Lan'er is the best."

Li Lan gently hugged him, looked at the white powder on the edge of the bowl, and revealed a meaningful sneer, "Don't cry, Lan'er is always with you. I don't need to care what other people say. We should live a good life." After that, she casually wiped the powder on the edge of the bowl, put the empty bowl on the tray, and then helped Wang Hai sit on the couch.

He turned around and shouted to the outside, "Come in and clean up the house. You've been lazying around every day and not caring about coming in to take care of me. You're getting lazier and lazier."

After the servants finished speaking, the maid entered the room tremblingly and said, "Slave, I pay my respects to the master."

Li Lan looked at the dependence in Wang Hai's eyes, disgust flashed in her eyes, and she said lightly, "Clean up the house, don't be so tactless every day, watching me drink and not knowing how to comfort me."

"My servant, I obey your command."

Li Lan then turned around and showed a distressed look to Wang Hai, "Master, don't blame them, they are just servants, how can they feel sorry for you? They will clean up in a while. Master, where do you want to rest today? Lan'er will help you over there."

Wang Hai's eyes flashed with dependence. "I will rest in the Madam's courtyard today. It's time to go see my two children. I miss them a lot after not seeing them for a long time."

Li Lan then suppressed his anger and helped him up. "They miss me too. They will be happy to see me." He slowly walked towards his room.

Wang Hai looked at Li Lan's obedience and said distressedly, "I will live well with you from now on, and we will be a good family."

Li Lan choked up and said, "Okay, let's live a good life as a family."

Wang Hai passed out drunk on the way, and Li Lan said in disgust, "Take me to the front yard to rest, and get me some hot water to wipe my body later."

Several servants supported Wang Hai and replied, "Yes, Madam, I obey your command."

Li Lan watched the man walk away, then revealed a meaningful smile and whispered, "It's time."

After saying that, he put away his smile, looked distressed, and walked towards his yard.

When Liu Yanyan heard Liu Wu's reply, she was so shocked that she dropped the cake on the plate. "He is also a ruthless person."

Shuhui was even more exaggerated, the tea in her mouth sprayed all over the table. "This Li Lan is so cruel! She can do this. Wang Hai fell into her hands. Even if they fall out, it won't work. The children are so grown up, and they can't be jealous of him. This will end the family line, and there are only two children."

Liu Yanyan looked at the table with disdain. Liu Wu respectfully stepped forward to tidy it up and put the fruit plate back on the table. "I never thought that Li would be so cruel. Wang Hai will never be able to hold his head up again after poisoning her continuously."

Liu Yanyan smiled calmly, "Okay, it seems that Li Lan doesn't intend to divorce and will do it herself."

Shuhui said, "She is now free from future troubles and doesn't need to get a divorce. But where did she get this medicine? It's a secret medicine."

Liu Yanyan looked at Shuhui calmly and said, "Think about where she said she was going back to yesterday?"

Shuhui suddenly remembered, "Yesterday she said she was going back to her parents' home and asked her mother to sign for her. Could it be that medicine?"

Liu Yanyan said calmly, "Think about the Li family. Besides the legitimate children, are there any other children? Her mother should have prepared for her early on."

Shuhui slammed the table, speechless with shock, "Her mother is also a ruthless character. This, this is too cruel."

Liu Yanyan smiled bitterly. Thinking of the days when she was trapped in the backyard in her previous life, her heart still ached so much that she couldn't breathe. She said calmly, "They had a harder life before. Now women can take the imperial examinations and do business. In the past, they could only be locked up in the backyard. It was difficult to go out. If the man didn't like them, their life would be worse than death. They are just protecting themselves. There is nothing they can do."

Shuhui nodded. "They are also poor people. They have no choice but to do this. What if they are discovered?"

Liu Yanyan smiled faintly, "They are betting that even if they know, they dare not kill in front of their only offspring. After all, they are the legal wives and the biological mothers of their children. Even if they know, they cannot tear their faces apart."

Shuhui was so surprised that she didn't know what to say. She took the tea and drank it quickly. "This is too risky."

"If they had any other options, they wouldn't do this. Giving them drugs that would make them sterile is strictly prohibited."
