Chapter 1148: Chapter 1153: Mo Zili’s Heartfelt Thoughts (3)

"Ah, I’ll go right away, but Miss Wanqing will cry her eyes out again when she learns you’re hurt!"

Wang Cai agreed cheerfully, went out, and then turned back at the entrance, saying, "Young Master, should I call a maid to fetch the Young Madam for you? Otherwise, how will you manage all alone?"

At the mention of ’Young Madam’, the image of Xiang Yun’s pale and haggard little face immediately came to Mu Zhongqing’s mind. He waved his hand and said, "No need for that, just summon two maids to come in and serve me here, that will do!"

"Yes!"

Wang Cai answered, called two girls into the room from the outer room, carefully instructed them, and then mounted his horse, leaving the back house as a streak of smoke towards Willow Lane.

Willow Lane was a street not far from the Palace, where the residents were all rich or noble.

At the end of the lane, there was an inconspicuous two-section house, where Lady Wang, the wife from the Second Room of the former Duke An’s family, and her young daughter Du Wanqing, as well as her ten-year-old son Du Yuqing, lived.

Originally, Lady Wang had fallen into slavery and should have been sold as a slave, but fortunately her fate was kind. She had a daughter who stood up for her, and through her daughter’s influence, not only was she herself saved, but her young son, who was about to be sent away to Lingbei, was also rescued.

In the past, she had been blinded by ambition, believing that only her eldest and second daughters, healthy and beautiful, had the assets to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix. Little did she expect that at the most critical moment, both her eldest and second daughters would be of no help, while it was her ailing young daughter who made a name for herself, finding a man of prestigious identity she could marry, allowing her to once again live a life of plenty.

Although this man already had an official wife, he was a sincere gentleman who treated her daughter wholeheartedly. With her daughter’s cleverness, it was only a matter of time before she would be able to marry into the man’s mansion in grand style, replacing that useless woman and becoming his official wife!

When Wang Cai arrived, Du Wanqing was sitting in front of the dressing table, getting ready. She was wearing a light blue pattern-woven coverlet, her favorite of the man’s, with a ’liuyun’ bun in her hair, adorned with only a simple violet jade hairpin, which was one piece from the set of violet jade head face jewelry that the man had bought for her. She wore matching earrings and a carved purple jade bracelet on her wrist.

This set of understated yet luxurious jewelry matched her plain dress perfectly, complementing each other and making her look both dignified as a lady from a prestigious family and delicate as an unmarried young woman from a humble household!

"Qing’er, Wang Cai is here, waiting outside; shall I ask him to come in?"

Lady Wang placed a bowl of black pregnancy medicine on the edge of Du Wanqing’s dressing table and casually corrected her daughter’s hairpin.

Looking at the pregnancy medicine on the dressing table, Du Wanqing picked it up without hesitation and drank it down.

The man was a member of the younger generation who valued rules and etiquette; keeping her in a concubine’s place was already the limit for him. He would not allow his eldest son to be born of a concubine, and even planned to have legitimate children with his wife at home.

If his plan succeeded, she would never be able to become the official wife. For the sake of her own future, she had to employ some means. Once she succeeded and entered the mansion, she would find an opportunity to eliminate that obstacle and step by step secure the position she deserved!

"Let him in!"

After drinking the last of the medicine in the bowl, Du Wanqing wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, stood up, and walked towards the hall in the outer room.

Hearing her daughter’s words, Lady Wang quickly sent the little maidservant out to invite the visitor and followed her daughter closely, taking good care of her. Her daughter was just newly pregnant, and this child was the hope of their entire family—they couldn’t afford any mishap!
