Quick Wear: The male protagonists all fell in love with her at first sight

Chapter 271 The Young Master is Willing to Be a Mistress (16)

Su Xuruo's medicine kept Zhao Shi in bed for over a month before she was finally able to get out of bed and walk around.

As soon as Zhao's health improved, she immediately took back the housekeeping power from Su Xuruo, catching Su Xuruo, who had intended to use the housekeeping position to make things difficult for Liu Yuwan, off guard.

This was unacceptable to Su Xuruo, who was even more focused on power after her romantic setback. Before she could do anything foolish, her advisor, Granny Wang, reminded her of the situation.

"My lady, please don't make a mistake."

Granny Wang dismissed the maidservants in the room and stepped forward to softly explain the pros and cons of the matter: "Madam, please don't panic. We are not the ones who should be in a hurry about this."

As she spoke, she gestured with her eyes toward the Jianjia Courtyard where Liu Yuwan lived.

Seeing this, Su Xuruo hurriedly said, "What kind of lowly woman has a master protecting her? She's even carrying the first child in the house. How could my mother-in-law make things difficult for her?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Wang said, "Madam is mistaken. Think about why that person has been unable to enter the manor all these years. Now, however, she has entered the manor through her pregnancy. How can the First Madam be happy about this? Even if she is considering the eldest young master's flesh and blood, she will probably still suffer as she is supposed to. And what if something goes wrong..."

Su Xuruo gradually calmed down, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly, a fleeting emotion passing through them, before she curled her lips in a mocking smile and said, almost through gritted teeth:

"Since ancient times, the eldest son has been superior to the concubines. How dare a lowly concubine's son presume to occupy the position of the eldest son?"

Seeing this, Granny Wang naturally chimed in, "What Madam says is true. In the first three months of a woman's pregnancy, the fetus is unstable. If she is tired from paying respects and observing proper etiquette, the child may not survive."

With just a few words, the master and servant decided the fate of Liu Yuwan's unborn child, and Zhao Shi became the scapegoat.

But reality caught them off guard.

A series of panicked screams rang out, and everyone vaguely heard the words, "Aunt Liu has miscarried."

Everyone was shocked to hear this. Who was Aunt Liu? She was the apple of their young master's eye, and she was carrying the eldest grandson of the Qin family. She was incredibly precious!

Liu Yuwan was heartbroken after losing her child, and Qin Sheng stayed by her side day and night to comfort her.

Liu Yuwan buried her face in Qin Sheng's chest and wept bitterly. It wasn't a gentle, pitiful sob, but a loud, childlike wail. This only made Qin Sheng's heart ache more, because he knew how much Liu Yuwan had been longing for this child.

This was also his child, and it was because of this child that he and Wan'er were able to start over. He sought advice from his colleagues who had already had children, hoping to become a good father.

Before fainting, Liu Yuwan cried out, "Brother Sheng is still so young, so young..."

After saying that, he fainted.

Liu Yuwan understood Qin Sheng's psychology well. Did Qin Sheng love her? Undoubtedly, he did. But there was no doubt that Qin Sheng was a smart man. He had placed many people around him to protect him, yet an accident still happened. If her purpose was clearly aimed at Su Xuruo, it was hard to guarantee that Qin Sheng wouldn't have some doubts after calming down.

She never forgot that she deeply loved Qin Sheng and had high hopes for their child. If Qin Sheng suspected that the child might be a tool she used to frame Su Xuruo, would he still believe the deep affection she had shown in the past?

Everything here was observed by Jiang Rou. She was right about Liu Yuwan; they were indeed kindred spirits.

Because of this incident, the mansion was unusually quiet. Even Su Xuruo, who was usually very active, stayed quietly in her room. But for no reason, she felt a sense of unease.

Jiang Rou's life remained unaffected. She lived in a remote area, and apart from Song Xiangning, no one ever came to visit her.

As the weather gradually warmed up, especially at dusk, the room became unbearably hot. Jiang Rou took Cui Tao to the courtyard to cool off until the moon and stars were sparse before returning home.

Jiang Rou lay on the armchair, enjoying the sunset and moonrise while eating the sweet soup made by Cui Tao, with Cui Tao chattering away about the trivial matters happening in the mansion.

Seeing that Jiang Rou's attention was entirely focused on Cui Tao, 021 felt a little jealous. Rou Rou used to only have it as her treasure, and it was all because little Tao Tao had seduced her.

In an attempt to grab attention, 021 said, "Rou Rou, Xie Jingci has returned from his business trip and is right outside that wall behind you, laughing heartily. Do you want to watch the live stream?"

Jiang Rou knew that Xie Jingci had gone out, and she had already guessed most of his identity. Feelings can be cultivated even without meeting in person. If she hadn't stopped him, that blockhead 021 would probably still be letting Xie Jingci have erotic dreams right now.

Speaking of this, 021 seemed rather guilty. Could it say that it had been distracted and forgotten? Of course not, because that would make Rou Rou doubt its competence.

Seeing that Jiang Rou's attention was drawn to her, 021 pressed on, "What Xiao Tao Tao knows is only a tiny fraction of what's going on. I know that Liu Yu Wan successfully framed Su Xu Ruo for the miscarriage, and Qin Sheng already has evidence. He's clamoring to divorce his wife."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Rou gave a surprised "oh," which made 021 even more excited. She continued, "I've also been keeping an eye on Qin Yue. Both of his legs are crippled, but his chosen one is still taking care of him without ever abandoning him."

Jiang Rou never interferes with other people's choices; everyone has their own destiny, doesn't they? It's just...

Jiang Rou said coldly, "Your legs are useless, so there's no need to keep your hands either."
