The beautiful concubine Su Ling felt uneasy after being invited. She subconsciously touched her belly, and then with the help of the maid, she went to the main courtyard and met the head mistress Wu and Mr. Wang.
"I have met the madam and I have met the master!"
Su Ling bowed softly and showed what she thought was the most beautiful side face, allowing the superior Mr. Wang to have a panoramic view of him. Her eyes just flickered before she turned her attention to Wu. After all, she was the one who summoned him.
“You are pregnant, sit down and talk!”
“Yes!”
Su Ling didn't dare to make a mistake. She knew the methods of this mistress. She had to behave obediently to make a living under others. Even if she was pregnant now, as long as the child was not born, she would not be considered her. reliance.
"I called you here today to reassure you. As long as your baby is a boy, it will be recorded in my name and treated as a legitimate son. You will inherit the Wang family's family business in the future. You are his biological mother. , I will enjoy endless wealth in the rest of my life."
"Thank you, madam, for your love. I will definitely raise the baby well and live up to the expectations of the master and madam."
Su Ling stood up and went on. A gift.
"Before that, I called the master here to talk about the family property. Zhenzhen and Yingying are also your daughters, but because they are girls, they cannot inherit the family property, but they cannot be treated badly either. Daughter.”
"Of course, they are both my flesh and blood. I will prepare a generous dowry for each of them, so that they can have the confidence to marry. The Wang family has been royal merchants for generations, and ordinary nobles' children can also marry."
< br>Master Wang touched the beautiful beard on his chin and said with a smile.
“Master, it’s not just the dowry, the two of them also share in the Wang family’s wealth. The real estate will be left to the son, and those are the chickens that lay golden eggs. As for the other money, divide it in half and give it to the two. Daughters, even if they don't marry in the future if they have money, they can live a happy life."
Wu raised her eyelids and said calmly.
"This"
Mr. Wang hesitated, but Wu did not give him this chance.
"If you don't agree, it doesn't matter. Su Ling's children will always be born from concubines. Even if they are boys, it will not be so easy to inherit the family business in the future. Those side branches are not vegetarian."
Wu picked up the tea bowl, skimmed the tea leaves, and took a sip.
After Su Ling heard this, her hands under her sleeves immediately clenched into fists, and her nails dug into the palms of her hands to keep her calm and not lose her composure on the spot.
If the mistress of the house refuses to record her child in her name, the child will always be a bastard. It is not impossible for a bastard to inherit the family business, but it is extremely difficult for a bastard to inherit the family business.
Because he will not only face difficulties from the head of the family, but also from the side branches. If he is not good enough, he will receive a share of the family property in the future and then be divided. At most, he will be taken out to support her. This depends on the head of the family. people's attitude.
Mr. Wang knew in his heart that since they took the concubine, the relationship between the two could only be regarded as respectful. Without the intimacy of the past, he understood that the wife was seeking benefits for the two daughters.
What's more, he still doesn't know whether the concubine is giving birth to a boy or a girl. He doesn't want his wife to feel cold. He has taken a step back for the sake of the family. This time he wants to protect his wife.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Master Wang said decisively.
After getting the approval, the Wu family began to prepare slowly. She wanted to settle everything before the concubine gave birth, and she did not want to alarm the Wang family branches and the Wu family members. Of course, as the head mother of the house, she also gave Su Ling a beating:
"Mother Ling, the ancients said that mica is more valuable than a child, and the same applies to you. Now your biggest task is to raise a baby and give birth to a baby. A healthy child is good for the Wang family. No matter how much you think about other things, you understand what I mean?"
"Su Ling understands! Tips."
Su Ling bowed and then returned to his own courtyard with the miscarriage that the master had given him.
When the door closed, her face darkened. She was unwilling to accept it. As long as this baby was a boy, everything in the Wang family should belong to her son, not the two girls. But she also knew her identity and current situation. status, the prerequisite for all of this is to be able to give birth to a son.
Su Ling lowered her eyes and touched her belly, which was not yet pregnant, and murmured to herself:
"My child, you have to give your mother a hard time. Everything here should be yours." !”
The maid on the side looked at her nose and heart, without any expression, and gently fanned herself.
“Don’t worry too much, madam, it’s not good for the fetus. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of the fetus. You can think of other ways.”
"Of course I understand, but how can I not worry! Go and bring me a cup of bird's nest."
"Yes, madam."
The maid stepped back respectfully, and after a moment Bring a cup of bird's nest.
"Madam, this is made from boiled blood swallow. It not only beautifies the face but also nourishes the fetus. It was specially made for you at the master's command."
"The master is interested."
Su Ling was in a much better mood at this time. She happily drank a cup of bird's nest and lay down to rest. She had become more lethargic since becoming pregnant.
The maid put away the soup cup, quietly exited the inner room, and stood guard outside.
Wu knew what Su Ling had done that day. She just smiled coldly, and then sped up her movements. When Su Ling was ten months pregnant and the child was born, Wu also completed the construction. In the two treasure houses, the wealth belonging to the two daughters was put in, and each of them was given a key to the treasure house for them to keep for themselves.
Su Ling gave birth to a boy. Mr. Wang was so happy that he named him Wang Yaohui himself and made Su Ling his concubine. However, the Wu family always looked calm and remembered Wang Yaohui as his concubine as agreed. In his name, he became the legitimate son of the Wang family.
Although it was recorded in Wu's name, Su Ling could always find various reasons to visit the child. Wu directly asked her to take the child to her side to raise, and Su Ling was frightened. He pleaded guilty and moved out. Mr. Wang interceded for himself, and then he left the child with Wu.
Su Ling was not stupid. If she really took the child to her and raised it, it would be equivalent to letting others know that the child was a bastard, and everything she wished for would be in vain. Then she completely stopped and stood in her small yard. I don't dare to mention my children anymore.
Spring passed and autumn came. By the time Wang Yaohui was five years old, Wang Zhenzhen and Wang Yingying had also reached the age of sixteen. They had reached the age of proposing marriage. Because of the wealth of the Wang family, there were many families who coveted the two of them. People have also crossed the threshold of the Wang family.
For the sake of her daughter, Mrs. Wu had to entertain people who wanted to marry each other. In the end, she directly held a red plum banquet at Hongmei Villa, and asked interested parties to bring their young masters there so that the two could get together. A daughter can observe in secret and choose the person she likes.
It was at Hongmei Villa that Xu Fengze met Wang Yingying, and they even performed a scene of a hero saving a beauty.
When the two sisters were picking plum blossoms in the plum forest of Hongmei Villa, they encountered masked gangsters. Their target was the two sisters. The first wave of attacks was blocked by the guards around them. The two ladies were escorted to the front yard to seek help.
At this moment, Wang Zhenzhen's personal maid suddenly became angry and put a dagger on her young lady's neck.
