Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2071 - 2079: Not Allowed to Let Her Enter the Mansion (1)

During the minor New Year, Cai Wei and her husband finally returned after traveling abroad for half a year. Not only did they come back to celebrate the family reunion, but they also started preparing for Bright Pearl’s grand wedding next year.

According to the agreement between the Great Jin and Qing Luo, Bright Pearl and Wanyan Chao were to hold their wedding during next year’s Shangsi Festival. As parents, with their only daughter getting married, Cai Wei and her husband naturally had to personally manage the arrangements.

On the second day of their return, Cai Wei visited the Mu Family to see her parents and learned about Wu’er’s upcoming marriage and taking a concubine. She frowned and said, "The wife hasn’t even entered the door yet, and the concubine is already prepared. Isn’t this too unfair to Miss Zhang?"

Lady Du said, "What concubine? It’s just giving her a title for the sake of the child. I don’t want my son to truly have anything to do with such a woman. Once she enters, our Mu Family will provide her with good food and drink, and she’ll be looked after by three slaves and six maids, and that’s it. As for making her a wife to my son, hmph, maybe in her next life!"

Cai Wei said, "If Dong Wan’er is anything like her mother, she must be fiercely jealous. Aren’t you afraid she might cause trouble if you marry her but don’t love her?"

Lady Du said, "Afraid of what? If she can behave once she enters, although Wu’er won’t favor her, our family won’t treat her poorly; however, if she dares to cause trouble, the family temple and family law will deal with her. If she complains that Wu’er neglects her, she can be let outside to live a monogamous life, but the child must stay with our Mu Family."

The child belongs to our Mu Family!

For some reason, when Lady Du said this, Cai Wei’s heart skipped a beat.

Perhaps it was due to her recent half-year cultivation in the space, her intuition had become much sharper than before. Just now, when her mother mentioned the child belonging to the Mu Family, she suddenly began to doubt these words.

Dong Wan’er conceived outside, and during her pregnancy, Wu’er was not at home. How could it be proven that the child in her stomach was Wu’er’s? Or how could it be proven that she had always been an upright and proper girl while outside? 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

If she had been involved in such a clandestine relationship with Wu’er, how could it be proven she hadn’t done the same with others? If what she suspected was true, and the child she carried belonged to someone else, wouldn’t their Mu Family be acting the fool?

"Mother, I think it is not advisable to bring Dong Wan’er into the mansion too soon. Even if Wu’er isn’t intimate with her, put yourself in another’s shoes. If your daughter had just entered the door and found that her husband’s family already had a concubine prepared, how would you feel? Even if Miss Zhang doesn’t dare to say it out loud, she would certainly resent you and Dad in her heart. Once the seeds of resentment are planted, they will take root and sprout, and in the future, even your legitimate grandson and granddaughter might be influenced by their mother and become distant from you, making it hard to mend relations." "Therefore, I think it would be better to wait until Miss Zhang enters the door, becomes pregnant, and gives birth to a child. By that time, with a child to care for, perhaps her heart would be more at ease."

Lady Du was startled by Cai Wei’s words. If her future daughter-in-law really blamed her, and even the legitimate grandson and granddaughter distanced themselves, she would greatly regret it! "What should I do then? We can’t possibly let Lady Dong give birth to our family’s child outside."

Cai Wei thought for a moment and said, "It might be best to settle her at the manor inside the home to nurture the fetus first. Once Wu’er’s wife has entered the door, becomes pregnant, and has children, with children to keep her busy, having one more person in the family might minimize the harm to Lady Zhang then."

She didn’t directly express her intuition because, after all, intuition was just a guess. Until her suspicions were confirmed, she couldn’t make rash conclusions. Otherwise, if the child in Dong Wan’er’s womb truly was Wu’er’s, and the child found out later that their aunt had once doubted their birth mother, surely they would harbor resentment against her!
