The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Xue Jinhua pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Yufei, are you kidding me?" Then she explained, "This child's parents were your brother's colleagues when he was on duty. They were your brother's saviors. You have never seen them before, so how could you think they look familiar?"

Zhao Yufei's expression was a little unnatural, but Xue Jinhua pretended not to notice and continued to joke, "Do you also think this child looks like the Crown Prince's Consort?"

"No...I didn't mean that!" Zhao Yufei was so nervous that he stuttered.

Xue Jinhua looked at her and laughed in her heart. She knew that Zhao Yufei was already beginning to feel flustered and surprised.

"Oh, big sister, I was just saying it casually. The Crown Prince's wife has been by your side for so many years. If she is really pregnant and giving birth, it will take several months, right? Don't you know?"

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Zhao Yufei recalled what happened in the past few years, and the expression on his face became more and more unnatural. Although it takes ten months to get pregnant, if it is well hidden, it is indeed difficult to be discovered in the first few months.

"By the way, how is the prince's health now?" Xue Jin looked at her expressionlessly, "And is your second house still making trouble?"

When Zhao Yufei mentioned these unpleasant things, he couldn't help but sigh, "The second branch saw that we had no one in the first branch, so they kept asking for an adopted child, but the prince is unwilling to give up now and doesn't want to give up the family business he has built."

"It's just... Oh! It's all my fault that my stomach is not doing well."

At this time, Zhao Yufei's mood began to get depressed again. If she could do better and give birth to a boy for the prince, then all the problems would be solved. However, the reality was so cruel that she felt helpless and frustrated.

"If we can't find a good solution, it's definitely not a long-term solution for the second house to continue to make trouble. Big sister, you must seriously think about how to deal with it." Zhao Yufei smiled bitterly and replied, "Even if I am willing to adopt a child, the prince will definitely not agree."

Xue Jinhua lowered her eyes slightly and said softly: "Sister, you don't want to adopt a child, but what if there are other people who are willing to adopt a child?" Zhao Yufei's heart moved, and he looked at Xue Jinhua in surprise, as if he had caught some hint from her words.

Xue Jinhua smiled slightly and continued, "Sister, I was just talking casually. It's getting late, and I'm sure mother must be waiting anxiously! You should go back as soon as possible to prevent mother from misunderstanding again." After saying that, he no longer looked at her.

Zhao Yufei also stood up and walked out. When he was almost at the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Xue Jinhua, "Sister-in-law, I will consider what you just said." After that, he strode away.

Xue Jinhua was in a very good mood, and she even pretended not to hear Zhao Yuting's sarcastic remarks during the meal.

After dinner, Zhao Yufei left in a hurry. Xue Jinhua wanted to go back to the house to continue looking at the account book after seeing him off, but unexpectedly, Wang Shi frowned and said, "Xue Jinhua, come with me."

Xue Jinhua looked at Wang's gloomy face and felt a little confused, but she still followed her into the house silently. After they both sat down, Xue Jinhua asked, "Mom, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Wang's expression was still very ugly. She stared at Xue Jinhua and said sternly, "Xue Jinhua, didn't Yuxuan say that Brother Fan should not see outsiders? Did you ignore Yuxuan's words?"

"Mother, how dare I disobey the Marquis? It's just that after Brother Fan arrived at the mansion, the Marquis asked me to take good care of him. I'm usually busy and don't have time. It was not until I had a little free time that I asked Brother Fan to come to my room to sit down. Who knew that my elder sister would come here?"

"Mother, besides, my elder sister is not an outsider, right? She is also our family, your daughter, isn't she? How would I know that my elder sister is an outsider in your eyes?"

Xue Jinhua's attitude was very sincere, even with a little grievance, "Mom, it's all my fault. I'll tell my elder sister right now and ask her to forget about meeting Brother Fan today." After saying that, Xue Jinhua pretended to walk out.

"stop!"

At this time, Wang was anxious and hurriedly stopped her, "If you meet, then meet. I didn't say Yu Fei is an outsider."

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua sneered in her heart, but showed a surprised expression on her face. She widened her eyes and asked in confusion: "Mother, who are the outsiders you are talking about? Brother Fan only met the eldest sister today, and didn't see anyone else? Your daughter-in-law is stupid and doesn't understand who you are talking about?"

Looking at Xue Jinhua's innocent face, Wang felt a little annoyed and thought that this daughter-in-law was becoming more and more difficult to deal with.

At this time, Wang's lips trembled, as if she wanted to say something, but she was hesitant. She couldn't help but wonder if Xue Jinhua really didn't know or was just pretending.

"I'm not talking about what happened today. I'm just reminding you that Yuxuan doesn't like Fan to see other people without his consent." Wang said in a serious and steady tone, "It's been a while since Yuxuan came back, and the relationship between you two has not eased. You should do things more in accordance with his wishes in the future, and he will naturally appreciate your kindness."

Appreciate? This is such a joke. Xue Jinhua lowered her eyes, hiding the mockery in them. Because she had proven in her previous life that even if she was sincere to him, he would not appreciate it.

"I understand, daughter-in-law. Thank you for your teachings, mother." Xue Jinhua responded softly, with a hint of imperceptible indifference in her eyes.

Seeing that she was sensible, Wang was relieved, but when she thought of Fan Ge'er's matter, her heart was lifted again. This was a big deal, and she had to discuss it with her son. So, she pretended to be tired and said to Xue Jinhua: "I'm tired, you go first!"

Xue Jinhua naturally knew what she was going to do, and she couldn't help but feel a little disdainful. After leaving the room, she immediately called Yinghua and whispered, "Go and ask Li San to find a woman named Wu Pozi at Xinghua Tower and bring her to the eldest aunt."

"Yes, miss," Sakura replied respectfully and turned to leave.

Xue Jinhua looked at the newly planted peach tree in the yard with a cold smile on her face. She secretly swore in her heart that she would never let Zhao Yuxuan succeed. Didn't he want that illegitimate child to return to his ancestral home? Then let's see who will have the last laugh.

Not only did she want to ruin Zhao Yuxuan's career, she also wanted to prevent the illegitimate child from ever entering this family. All of this was the punishment they deserved, and she would make them pay the price.

.........

Zhao Yufei returned to the mansion with a heavy heart, but she couldn't calm down. She sat in the room with a frown on her face, as if something was bothering her.

The maidservant beside her noticed that the lady was acting strange and asked with concern, "Madam, are you feeling unwell?"

Zhao Yufei shook her head slightly, indicating that she was not feeling unwell. Then, she looked at the maid and said softly, "When you followed me to the Marquis' Mansion today, did you also see the child?"

The head maid nodded and replied, "Yes, ma'am, I saw it."

Zhao Yufei then asked: "So, who do you think that child looks like?"

The head maid knew very well that as a servant, there were some things that should not be said casually, so she remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhao Yufei looked a little unhappy and continued to ask: "Don't you think he looks like the Crown Prince's Consort?"

The head maid was startled and quickly lowered her voice and said, "Madam, you can't say such things!" At the same time, she subconsciously looked out the window, worried that someone would hear these words that shouldn't be said.

Zhao Yufei sighed and said slowly: "This child does have some similarities with the Crown Prince's Consort. You have also seen what Xue Qing'er looked like before she got married..." Her eyes became empty, as if she was lost in memories.

Xue Qing'er was once left with scars due to a facial injury. The Xue family went to great lengths to heal her face, but her appearance also changed as a result.

Otherwise, this child looks more like Xue Qing'er.

"But, Madam, I don't understand. This child was brought back by the Marquis after he took up his post outside. How could he be related to the Crown Prince's Consort?" The head maid was puzzled. "Also, Madam, this child is very similar to the Crown Prince's Consort. You can see it. Can't the old lady see it after she comes back?"

Zhao Yufei looked solemn, and a very scary thought instantly came to his mind.

She couldn't help but wonder, if this child was really related to the Crown Prince's Consort, then what kind of secret was hidden behind it?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yufei immediately said to the head maid: "Go and check what the Crown Prince's Concubine did during the few months she returned to her parents' home five years ago?"

The head maid took the order and left, while Zhao Yufei fell into deep thought.

……

After a few days, Zhao Yufei returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

"Mom, brother, sister-in-law, I came here today to discuss something with you." Zhao Yufei said with a serious face.

Wang still didn't understand what was going on. She smiled and joked, "Yu Fei, we are all family. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"It's like this, I want to adopt Brother Fan."
