The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 516: Lovey-Dovey

Yun Jiao was startled by Lady Wu’s strong reaction and whispered, "Well, since we’ve just arrived in the Capital City and are unfamiliar with the place, naturally we need to temporarily stay at the Duke Mansion. But, it’s not proper to always stay at the Duke Mansion."

She wasn’t married to Jiang Youzhi yet; staying at the Duke Mansion was inappropriate.

Lady Wu said, "What, are you worried about something? Are you concerned that it’s unseemly to stay at the Duke Mansion without any recognized status?"

"I’ve already thought about this; I just forgot to tell you."

"Publicly, we’ll say you’re my distant niece. That way, there’s absolutely no problem with you staying."

"Even when you marry Sanlang in the future, this identity won’t be an issue."

Yun Jiao was speechless for a while.

She and Mrs. Chen had already discussed the plan to first settle at the Duke Mansion and then buy a house to move out.

The rules at the Duke Mansion are strict, and it’s uncomfortable to live there.

Especially Mrs. Chen, who almost cried when she heard Lady Wu enthusiastically talking about assigning one courtyard each to Liulang Gu Chuan and the third daughter that day.

With everyone having a separate courtyard, wouldn’t it be difficult for her to even see her children?

Moreover, Mrs. Chen felt her status made staying at the Duke Mansion awkward.

And Yun Jiao herself wanted to continue running the pharmacy; she was interested in buying a shop with a courtyard to make commuting convenient.

However, she hadn’t discussed any of these plans with Jiang Youzhi yet.

Yun Jiao chose to stay silent; it’s better to wait until they reach the Capital City to talk about it. After all, buying a shop or house isn’t something that can be done quickly.

While heading north, fortunately, it hadn’t rained yet.

Even so, the journey was slow, and it wasn’t until the twenty-sixth of the twelfth lunar month that they reached the Capital City.

The Duke of England had long received the news and was waiting for them at the Ten Miles Pavilion outside the city.

The convoy stopped. Lady Wu lifted the curtain, and Yun Jiao saw the Duke of England outside.

He looked toward the inside of the carriage, his willow-leaf eyes, very similar to Jiang Youzhi’s, were tenderly fixed on Lady Wu’s face.

Yun Jiao accidentally saw this and shuddered from the affection, quickly lifting the curtain to get off the carriage.

She decided to run to the back and sit with Mrs. Chen and the others, leaving the carriage to the Duke of England and Lady Wu, who were more clingy than newlyweds, reunited after a long separation.

Jiang Youzhi saw her getting off the carriage and didn’t need to ask to know the reason.

His face darkened; in this cold weather, having Jiao Jiao get off and back on the carriage was too much, thanks to his parents!

The convoy soon continued forward.

Inside the car ahead, the Duke of England cuddled Lady Wu and whispered, "Since returning to the Capital City, I haven’t been back home."

"About finding our son, I haven’t told anyone."

"Only Ah Qiu and Ah Yun know."

"I’m now having someone investigate who wants to separate us and harm our son."

"However, for the moment, there’s no clue."

Lady Wu uttered a sound of acknowledgment.

The Duke of England gently said, "In the future, I must trouble Madame; all the household matters are to be entrusted to you."

Lady Wu snorted, "Your concubine, who managed the Duke Mansion for eighteen years, is just short of a title to become the Duchess. I’m returning to take away her stewardship; will she be willing?"

The Duke of England raised his eyebrows in surprise, "She’s just a concubine, whereas you are the Mistress!"

"Even if she was managing the household, it was because you were absent. Now that you’ve returned, she naturally needs to hand it over. What’s there to be unwilling about?"

In his mind, no, it should be said in the minds of most men, concubines cannot be compared to wives.

Many times, concubines are merely comfort tools. If a friend likes her, they can be given away.

But a wife is different; she shares the family responsibilities and enjoys its honors together.
