Yu Sanlang brought Xie Yuan along with him to the Yu Residence when the food was sent back to the door. Perhaps it was due to the fact that there were no more eyewitnesses around, but it was due to this that they were delayed for a while longer.

He hadn't even arrived at the Hall of Illumination when he heard a servant report that his mother had come.

His mother had rushed over from the capital, exhausted from the journey.

He even waited at the main house for a long time.

When Yu Sanlang heard this, he frowned.

"Since my mother has long since returned, why haven't I seen anyone to report to her?" If a servant had reported to them earlier, they wouldn't have delayed them for so long.

"Husband, will mother be angry with me?" She knew that after returning home and eating dinner, she would return. Normally, if she stayed too long, it would be too late. However, looking at the sky now, it was already the right time to do so.

Xie Yuan couldn't help but feel anxious when he thought of this.

"That won't happen. Although my mother's temper isn't too good, there's one thing she wants to protect." If he could include her in his group, her path would be much easier in the future.

"Really?"

"Naturally." He just didn't know who exactly was plotting against the two of them in this house.

Yu Sanlang and Xie Yuan hastily changed their clothes and washed themselves before heading to the main building.

The moment Xie Yuan stepped into the great hall, he saw a graceful woman sitting at the bottom left of the main seat.

She was very pretty, and every single one of her expressions and smiles were filled with flirtatiousness. However, there was a hint of sternness in the corner of her eyes, and her gaze towards Xie Yuan turned more serious.

Matriarch Yu wrote to tell her that Sanlang was in trouble and wanted to marry her to make her happy.

She agreed.

He even asked a lot of close friends about it, but none of them were willing.

That was true. She understood their feelings. If it were her, she would not be willing to do so. Hence, she only asked a question or two, without any expectations.

However, there was one family that disgusted her. When she thought of that person's hopeful eyes, she felt a surge of anger rushing up her head. If this person wasn't her husband's friend, she would have immediately ordered someone to sweep them out.

Later on, he received Matriarch He's second letter saying that he had found the person she was looking for. Furthermore, Sanlang had even reunited with her after waking up on the night of their marriage.

When she heard this, she was overjoyed.

I can't wait to rush back to Fenyang and see that little lucky star in her heart.

Indeed, in Lady Yu's eyes, the woman who awakened her son was a lucky star.

However, he still had to inspect it.

The woman wasn't too overconfident. What she was worried about was how good her character was.

However, there shouldn't be too much of a problem if he was able to catch the matriarch's eye.

At this moment, she saw her son bringing in a beautiful woman. The woman's appearance was not outstanding, her skin was somewhat rough, but once she was nurtured, she could recover easily. When she saw her son bringing in a beautiful woman, although there was a flattering smile on her face, she was not flattering nor was she that timid.

It was rather generous, and comfortable to look at. The only weakness was that he had lost some weight.

However, from the looks of her figure, she was quite good. With her slender waist and round buttocks, it wouldn't be long before she could have a grandson in her arms.

As she thought of this, the last trace of worry in Lady Yu's heart dissipated.

His son had woken up. What could be better than this?

"Mother, why have you come? "Where's father?"

Yu Sanlang couldn't help but ask when he saw that his mother was the only one there and that his father wasn't present.

"Your father still has things to do in the capital." If something had not happened in the capital, she would not have been able to make it in time to attend her son's wedding.

"This must be my daughter-in-law."

"daughter-in-law Xie Yuan greets mother." Xie Yuan thought for a moment before kneeling down in front of Lady Yu. The maidservant behind her was clever. She quickly brought a cup of tea and passed it to Xie Yuan. "Mother, please drink this tea."

Seeing his wife kneel, Yu Sanlang also knelt down.

On the second day of marriage, his mother wasn't present, and he hadn't even drank this cup of daughter-in-law tea. Now he could be considered to have made up for it.

"Alright, alright. Have some tea. Where did this young lady come from? She's so smart that I'm too embarrassed to ask for a present in front of her. Come around and ask for it." Lady Yu was grinning from ear to ear.

This daughter-in-law is so intelligent.

Her son had a dazed look. She had seen it just now and thought that even her son didn't expect this daughter-in-law to suddenly do such a thing.

She touched the emerald green jade hairpin on her head. Looking at its head of water, she knew that this jade hairpin was of extraordinary value.

Xie Yuan accepted it calmly and didn't delay it. This was given to her by her mother-in-law, so she took it for granted.

Seeing that Xie Yuan didn't decline, Lady Yu's smile grew even wider.

"Good child, quickly get up."

She reached out a hand to pull Xie Yuan up.

"Mom, what about my present?"

"Go, damn brat. You come here every day to rub stuff on me. Mother has so many treasures, yet they were all wiped away by you." She was holding onto Xie Yuan with one hand and touching Yu Sanlang with the other. Her eyes couldn't help but turn red when she saw how energetic Yu Sanlang was.

In the end, her child still survived.

When she was about to leave the capital, she attended a few festivals or a banquet hosted by other families. Originally, she had no intention of going, but her husband insisted that she go. She knew that he had good intentions and wanted her to go out for a walk.

However, those people at the banquet didn't say anything in front of them, but behind their backs, they were all discussing her son's matter.

They say her son won't live to be eighteen.

They said that the eldest son of the Yu Mansion was about to lose his heir.

Yu Xiuhao didn't take in a concubine. The entire backyard was clean and tidy. The two of them were on good terms with each other, so naturally, they wouldn't be as messy as the other people. The only thing that could be said was her son.

Her daughter, Yu Chen, fought with other girls because those girls said her brother would die soon.

When she came back, she even cried.

From then on, she never went out again.

"Mom, don't cry." Seeing his mother-in-law touching her husband's hands, Xie Yuan thought for a moment before thinking of the reason. She took out the handkerchief that her maidservants had embroidered for her and carefully wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes.

"Hubby is done."

"Zhao Ning, the child is fine now, so don't cry. Why make the children laugh?" The corners of Matriarch Yu's eyes turned sour from Madam Yu's tears.

"Mom, I was crying. I was happy." Lady Yu patted Xie Yuan's hand and said, "Look, mother's eyes are sharp as a torch. God bless you for finding such a good girl."

"Of course, it is in the public square of the Fang Yuan Temple. In a few days, I will have to go to the Fang Yuan Temple to repay my wish."

After meeting with his mother-in-law, Yu Sanlang pulled Xie Yuan back to his room.

After they were done, Matriarch He called the doctor to take Yu Sanlang's pulse. She found it unbelievable that the doctor was saying that his body was recovering.

He only treated them as the pity of the heavens.

Meanwhile, the matriarch, who remained in the main wife's room, chatted with her eldest daughter-in-law, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

The two of them left all the maids outside, leaving only the embroidered door to guard the entrance.

"Mother, do you mean that in this child's home …"

"Yeah, there's a grandmother and uncle whom I can't understand. Fortunately, they were separated, so it's good to see that there are a few in Mother Yuan's family."

"Then it's alright, we're separated now. As for grandmother's confusion, it's fine, but it's really that that's the case. As long as it's not too much, then I, this mother-in-law, will still be in charge." Lady Yu spoke in a domineering tone.

"That's not necessary. Her uncle wants the title of High Scholar. When the time comes, I've already instructed someone to tell the examiner …" Matriarch Yu explained everything she had investigated to Madam Yu.

When Lady Yu heard this, she could not help but sigh with emotion. Every family had their own problems, but she also felt sorrowful for Xie Yuan's mother, the Mo family. Although the Yu Family was a bit complicated, not everyone could be as lucky as she was. To meet such a good mother-in-law …

"Hubby, your mother is so nice." Xie Yuan had never thought that such a rich and beautiful person would treat her so gently. She had always been on tenterhooks. And you gave me such a beautiful jade hairpin. " She took the jade hairpin from her hair and locked it up.

"It's your mother now. I already said it, don't worry, my mother won't make things difficult for me."

Yu Sanlang pinched Xie Yuan's nose. " Why did you lock this jade hairpin up? "

"I'm worried that I might lose it. This is my mother's first gift to me."

"It won't be lost. The green willow in the room will look favorably upon it. If it is lost, then I will take the other one …"

The maidservants were sold. "

At this point, Yu Sanlang suddenly thought of something.

"Mother Yuan, you should rest for a while. I need to go out for a bit."

"Alright."

Mistress Yuan nodded. Her cute appearance almost made Yu Sanlang turn into a wolf. If it weren't for the fact that they were all worried about what had just happened, they might not have eaten dinner today and would instead have eaten supper.

Yu Sanlang's expression darkened as he walked out of the room.

He did not look for Madame Yu San, who was temporarily in charge of management, but instead went straight to the manager at the door.

The steward of Yu Mansion in the capital was his uncle. Because his parents had died young, the steward had raised him under his name, and had even recommended him to be the steward of Yu Mansion in the Great Yu County.

Normally, he used the name of the Yu Family to gain some face in the Lantau County. But now, he stood tremblingly in front of Yu Sanlang.

Cold sweat poured down his back.

He didn't dare to touch it.

No one didn't know that they had offended someone in the Yu Mansion, but none of them had offended the person in front of them. "I wonder if Third Young Master has any orders for this servant to come?"

He was bent over, his attitude extremely humble.

"I just want to know, who is on duty at the gatehouse today?"

"Yes, it's Liu Shan."

"Who is Liu Shan?"

"She's a distant relative of the Third Madam's family." Yu Ping replied in a low voice.

"Oh." Yu Sanlang raised an eyebrow and said, "Third Madame's family is going to be difficult. How about you go and ask her?"

"Third Young Master, what happened?" Looking at the young master's expression, it was obvious that he was going to make things difficult for them. What was Liu Shan trying to do? This made the usually unconcerned young master angry.
