Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

Chapter 320: The Cat Substitutes for the Prince 3

"Alright, you're annoying. Take the child out yourself."

"By the way, I heard that Aunt Mo can't take good care of the child either, and the child cries all day long. Bring the child to my yard, and I'll take care of him/her together."

Upon hearing this, Fu Jinhuai's face stiffened.

What does this mean? He couldn't help but wonder if the lady knew something.

"Madam, I'm afraid this is not a good idea. How can you take care of Aunt Mo's child?"

"It's just a son born out of wedlock, so don't trouble yourself. You've only just finished your postpartum period and your body isn't fully recovered yet. You probably can't take care of one child. Let Aunt Mo raise her child herself."

Qingmo waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care.

"Whether it's taking care of one child or two, it's still taking care of them. Besides, what right does a concubine have to raise children? Does she even deserve it?"

"What, my husband, are you unwilling? Are you afraid that I will mistreat a son born out of wedlock? Then register him under my name as well, so that he can be considered half a legitimate son."

"No, no, no, absolutely not, Madam. How can a son born out of wedlock be registered under your name? Only our children are legitimate sons. You must not say such things."

Fu Jinhuai quickly shook his head and refused.

Good heavens, he finally managed to turn that child into a son of a concubine, how could he turn him into a son of a legitimate wife again?

Although they are all his children, there are differences in closeness; the children he had with Yu Yu are naturally different.

Qingmo gave him a half-smile.

“That’s fine. The child doesn’t have to be registered in my name, but he/she must be brought to my facility. Don’t worry, I’ll arrange a wet nurse.”

"I can't let people say that I mistreated my illegitimate son. Besides, whether it's an illegitimate son or a illegitimate daughter, they all have to call me mother. It's only reasonable for them to take care of me in the courtyard."

"A mere concubine, how dare she have any objections?"

Ultimately, unable to withstand Qingmo's persistent pressure, Fu Jinhuai finally agreed.

After all, it's reasonable for a son born out of wedlock to be raised in the main wife's quarters. A concubine is just a concubine; in the end, she's a servant, and she has no right to raise a child.

However, in most families, children born out of wedlock were raised by concubines, because the principal wife generally would not take the initiative to raise the children of concubines.

If you raise your child well, they won't be grateful to you at all; they'll even hate you for separating mother and child.

If you don't raise him properly, you'll just earn a reputation for mistreating an illegitimate son. Why invite trouble upon yourself?

Fu Jinhuai was suspicious of Qingmo's intentions, but he eventually dismissed his doubts.

If the lady really knew the truth, how could she not make a scene and try to get her child back?

It seems that the lady is very generous and willing to raise the two children together, which is also in line with the original owner's personality.

Fu Jinhuai agreed, but Mo Yuyu was not happy.

She still wanted to keep the child by her side and torment him.

We can't let the lady take it away. What if she takes away my son's affection?

“Brother Huai, we can’t let Madam take the child away! What does Madam mean by this? She has her own son, why is she trying to take my child? This is too much of a bullying.”

"Brother Huai~"

Aunt Mo held Fu Jinhuai's hand and acted coquettishly, like a little girl. She knew that Brother Huai was most susceptible to her charms.

Fu Jinhuai, however, held her in his arms and shook his head.

"Yu Yu, I'm afraid it won't work. Madam's attitude is very firm; she insists on taking the child over to raise him."

"But……"

Mo Yuyu's eyes reddened, tears welling up. "Brother Huai, what if Madam finds out... what if she finds out? What will happen to our child?"

Fu Jinhuai gently patted her back and comforted her, "Don't worry, Yuyu. If Madam finds out, the sky will probably fall. Besides, she thinks this is your child, so how could she be good to the child?"

Mo Yuyu bit her lip, her heart filled with resentment, but suddenly her eyes lit up.

Yes, the lady thinks this is her child, so how could she be good to her child?

If it were the lady herself who destroyed her own son, wouldn't that be even more interesting?

However, just in case, she absolutely could not leave any future problems.

Thinking of this, a strange light flashed in Mo Yuyu's eyes, which Fu Jinhuai did not see.

In his eyes, Yu Yu was the most understanding, gentle and kind woman, and he was the one who had wronged her by not being able to give her a proper title.

But it doesn't matter, he will make it up to their son.

When Mo Yuyu brought the child to the mistress's courtyard, the child's face had already been scalded by boiling water.

Although medicine has been applied, it's not hard to see that he'll likely be disfigured in the future.

Qingmo gave her a meaningful look. "How dare you, Madam Mo, hurt the child like this! How could you do this?"

Mo Yuyu, on the other hand, shed tears like a kitten, looking utterly aggrieved.

"Madam, I...I didn't mean to."

"It's because the child was too noisy that this happened by accident. This is my own child, how could I not feel sorry for him?"

Qingmo sneered, "An accident? Mo family, you're really something."

"Although this child is born out of wedlock, he is still half a master in this household. What are you? You lowly brat, how dare you hurt the master like this?"

After saying that, she turned to the old nanny beside her and said, "Go and fetch a doctor to take a good look at this child's injury. If it leaves a scar, I'll make you pay, Mo Shi."

The old woman quickly accepted the order and left.

Mo Yuyu was surprised that the madam was making such a fuss over nothing. It wasn't even her own child, so why was she acting so hypocritical?

On the surface, however, he feigned even greater remorse, saying, "Madam, it is my fault. Please punish me as long as the child can recover."

Qingmo felt utterly disgusted by her appearance.

At this moment, Fu Jinhuai rushed over and saw Mo Yuyu kneeling on the ground. He felt heartbroken, but showed no emotion on his face.

“Madam, why are you so angry? I already knew about this. He’s just a son of a concubine, you don’t need to take it to heart.”

"Snapped."

Qingmo slapped him across the face.

"Husband, watch your words. Don't keep referring to them as illegitimate sons. They are all your sons."

“Outsiders who don’t know the truth might think that I mistreat my illegitimate sons. I’m not that kind of person. I treat all my husband’s children equally.”

Hit him again, hit him again?

How many times has this happened?

Has this woman gone mad since giving birth?

They didn't give him any face at all, and even slapped him in front of Yu Yu. How will he ever be able to hold his head up in front of Yu Yu again?

"Madam, you've gone too far! Who taught you to slap your own husband? Don't you have any respect for hierarchy?"

"Do I need to teach you the principles of the Three Obediences and Four Virtues again?"

This was the first time Fu Jinhuai had been so assertive; after all, he couldn't lose face in front of his beloved.

"Clap clap clap..."

Several more slaps landed on his face.

Qingmo waved her hand dismissively and said, "Fu Jinhuai, who are you yelling at? Are you putting on airs?"

"Remember this: you are just a dog kept by the Marquis of Anyang. Don't think that just because you've become a minor official, you can hold your head high in front of me."

"My father can put you in a position of power, and he can also take your place. Don't forget your place, you dog."

After hitting the person, she walked away.

Only the two of them remained, staring venomously at her retreating figure.
