Chapter 254 – Raising A Son In The Cultivation World (part 6) 

“Tell me what happened,” Li Su said while she looked at Cuizhu.  

“This servant heard something. This servant isn’t sure if this servant should tell the young miss.” Cuizhu wanted to tell the young miss, but after seeing the young master, she hesitated. The young miss was now much happier than when she was with the Yuan family, so she didn’t want to disturb the young miss.  

Li Su smiled helplessly. “What do you think?” 

“I think it’s better not to know, miss. It’s not a big deal and it has nothing to do with us,” Cuizhu said after thinking about it.  

Li Su held back a smile. “Okay, let me hear it.” 

Cuizhu glanced at Li Su hesitantly. “Young miss, do you really want to listen?”  

“You’re becoming more and more like a petty official. The young miss asks you to say what you want!” Lüzhu brought a bowl of milk to Li Su and stared at Cuizhu.  

Cuizhu pouted. “It’s like this… This servant heard from Aunt Qian, who is in charge of purchasing, that Yuan Dao was going to take in another concubine again.” 

Li Su frowned slightly. Yuan Dao wanted to take a concubine? What the hell happened? Wasn’t he more in love with Su Wanrong than gold? Why was he taking a concubine again? 

“What does Yuan Dao’s concubine have to do with us?! Young miss, don’t take this matter to heart.” Lüzhu quickly looked at Li Su’s face.  

Li Su relaxed and patted Lüzhu’s hand. The girls around her were loyal to her and put her first in everything. Every time Li Su thought of this, she was a little puzzled. After the death of the original owner, how could these girls sit and watch the Yuan family steal Liu Qingyun’s dowry and ignore Yuan Xian? This was really a mystery. 

“Lüzhu is right. The Yuan family’s affairs have nothing to do with us. But Cuizhu did the right thing, and we still have to be careful with the Yuan family. We don’t want to be caught off guard,” Li Su said.  

When Cuizhu was scolded by Lüzhu, she thought she had done something wrong and was depressed, but after hearing what Li Su said, she was happy again. 

After Cuizhu left happily, Lüzhu said softly, “The young miss has spoiled Lüzhu.” 

“How is this spoiling? We grew up together. In my heart, all of you are different from others. All of you are closer than my brothers. Now that I have said that, let me say a few more words. How old are all of you? What are your plans? No matter what you all want to do, I will support you. Whether you get married or want to leave, as long as you say it, I will support you.” Li Su pulled on Lüzhu and sat down beside her. 

Lüzhu shook her head. “I don’t know about others, but I’m not going anywhere. I’ll follow the young miss. I don’t want to get married either.” What was so good about getting married? A good person like the young miss was still bullied by the one surnamed Yuan. Besides, getting married meant serving his family. It was better to follow the young miss. 

Li Su sighed helplessly. ” Lüzhu, you don’t need to not want to get married just because I haven’t met a sweetheart!” 

“It has nothing to do with the young miss,” Lüzhu quickly explained. “I don’t want to get married anyway. The few of us, except for Jinzhu who has her family, are all alone. If the master had not taken us in and taught us to read and write, who knows what would have happened to us? We swore before the master that we would serve the young miss for the rest of our lives and that we would not go anywhere.”  

Afraid that Li Su would misunderstand, Lüzhu quickly explained. 

Li Su didn’t expect that there was another reason. She was a little speechless. “Who said that a married person had to leave me? A married person can still serve by my side!”  

“Anyway, I don’t want to get married.” Lüzhu whispered. The young miss had always been kind to them and they were very comfortable in front of the young miss. 

Just as Li Su was about to persuade her again, Immortal Stays’ cries came from the room. Lüzhu quickly stood up and ran to the curtain. “Young miss, come in quickly. The young master is looking for you.”  

Li Su glanced at her angrily. “Okay, that’s all for today. I stand by what I said. If you change your mind, feel free to tell me.” 

Lüzhu laughed.  

In the Yuan family, Su Wanrong also knew why Yuan Dao went out at that time. At the same time, she also knew that Yuan Dao wanted to take a concubine.  

Su Wanrong covered her face with a veil and cried. After crying, she was the dignified and steady Mrs. Yuan-Su again. 

Probably to appease her, Yuan Dao discussed things with Mother and Father Yuan and gave her the power over the household. He also promised her that if the concubine gave birth to a child in the future, it would be recorded in her name.  

But Su Wanrong didn’t want to have a concubine’s child. It wasn’t as if she couldn’t have a baby! Since she could give birth to a daughter who was accepted as an apprentice by an immortal, she could still give birth to a son! 

But she dared not express her true feelings because these ideas were not in line with her usual image. Yes, her consistent image after marrying into the Yuan family was that she was indifferent to the world, that she was dignified and generous, stable and decent. She didn’t have to do anything. As long as she maintained her image and was herself, others will have to flatter her.  

And what happened after that was just as she imagined, except for the emergence of the variable Mrs. Liu. 

Mrs. Liu’s divorce completely disrupted all her plans. Things started to develop in a direction that she couldn’t control and now it was getting out of control.  

For example, Mrs. Liu gave birth to a son before her, and now, the husband was motivated to take a concubine. 

If Mrs. Liu had not yet divorced, even if she gave birth to a son before her, Su Wanrong would have a way to turn the situation around. But now that Mrs. Liu had divorced, she exited the game and she lost control.  

She could no longer hide behind Mrs. Liu and use Mrs. Liu’s mistakes to her advantage Instead, she herself became a target. She could not act recklessly and was restrained everywhere. 

“Madam!” Yuli looked at Su Wanrong, worried.  

“What’s the matter?” Su Wanrong was sitting in front of the mirror doing makeup.  

“The eldest young master sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that madam is not well, and to please go back when you have time,” Yuli said before lowering her head. She did not dare to look at Su Wanrong’s face. 

Su Wanrong opened her eyes. She knew very well that her not feeling well was just an excuse. Someone must have begged her for something, and she kindly agreed. But her dad was free from corruption and was devoted to becoming an immortal, and so he ignored commonplace affairs. He only became a little fanatical when he learned that Ru’er was picked up by the immortal. After he asked for the details and learned that the immortal did not leave anything, he went back to his former calm self. Her elder brother did not live up to his expectations. He was only a seventh-rank official and he was powerless. Now, she could only rely on herself and the Yuan family. 

She had always been a filial daughter. She couldn’t be impatient or angry. Therefore, no matter what excessive demands mother made, she would do her best to help if she could. If it was really impossible, she had to patiently and gently explain it to mother.  

Su Wanrong slowly exhaled. “Got it. Tell him that I will take Lan’er back to the house tomorrow.” 

When Su Wanrong paid her respects in Lofty Purple Hall, Father Yuan had gone out and only Mother Yuan was there. Su Wanrong said that her mother was ill and that she wanted to go home tomorrow. 

Mother Yuan agreed quickly. Mother Yuan, however, was a little unhappy when she said that she wanted to bring Yuan Lan with her. “Lan’er is still young. Your own mother is sick, so why would you take Lan’er there?!”  

Su Wanrong had no intention of arguing with Mother Yuan  over such trivial matters, so she docilely answered. 

Seeing her like this, Mother Yuan felt a little uneasy when she thought of how things must have felt like to Su Wanrong recently. “I’ve wronged you about Dao’er taking a concubine. It’s just that Dao’er is approaching his thirties now. He has only two daughters and no sons. You are the madam of the Yuan family, and your children will be the heirs to the Yuan family. This is just to shut the mouths of others.” 

Su Wanrong nodded lightly. “Daughter-in-law understands. Mother can rest assured.”  

“When you do things, mother will naturally rest assured. Since your mother is ill, I have a hundred-year-old ginseng in my warehouse. You can bring it home tomorrow to help your mother’s body.” Mother Yuan smiled. 

“Thank you, mother.” Su Wanrong quickly stood up and thanked Mother Yuan. 

Mother Yuan nodded with a smile. She could only feel like a mother-in-law in front of Su Wanrong. If it had been Liu Qingyun, Liu Qingyun would not have taken the 100 year old ginseng seriously. Liu Qingyun had hundreds of 100 year old ginseng in her warehouse, so she would not have cared about just one 100 year old ginseng. 

Su Wanrong had lunch at her mother’s house and came back in a hurry. There was some difficulty in what her mother entrusted to her. She explained it to her in a good voice, but her sister-in-law was talking too much. She had almost lost her composure, and the image she had worked so hard on for so many years had almost been destroyed. Fortunately, she held back at the last minute. Anyway, she saw that 100 year old ginseng again. 

When Su Wanrong returned to the mansion, according to the rules, she went to Lofty Purple Hall to talk to Mother Yuan. Although Mother Yuan had said that the family did not have to follow the rules too much many times, Su Wanrong still insisted. Su Wanrong had truly achieved “you must tell your parents when you leave, and you must meet your parents when you return so they do not worry”, which is what she had always been praised for. 

Su Wanrong walked to the door and heard Mother Yuan’s voice inside. “This one is surnamed Li, and at first glance, she looks like a man. Her mother gave birth to eight sons and two daughters. Her older sister also gave birth to three sons for her husband’s family after she married. And this one is surnamed Yang. The female elders of her father’s and mother’s families are very fertile. There are six brothers and sisters in the family. And this, this, are all carefully selected by mother. Which one do you like? Or do you want to bring them all into the house?” 

Su Wanrong held her breath and listened quietly. She wanted to know what her husband would say.  

“No need, that’s it! No matter if it is a legitimate or illegitimate offspring, I must have a son.” Yuan Dao also knew that his current state was a bit wrong and it was unfair to Wanrong, but he had this desire in his heart and had nowhere to vent. He desperately needed a son to prove his disdain for that child. 

Su Wanrong’s heart sank slightly. When Mrs. Liu was here, she thought that her husband treated her differently. Only now did she know that nothing was different.  

Su Wanrong took a few steps back and looked at Yuli. Yuli understood, increased her steps, and said loudly, “Madam, slow down and pay attention to your feet.” 

The mother and son looked up at the same time.  

When Su Wanrong entered, there were no traces left in the room. The mother and son were drinking tea, as if what she had just heard was a hallucination. 

In fact, if Mother Yuan and Yuan Dao had discussed with her the choice of a concubine, perhaps Su Wanrong would not feel so uncomfortable. However, with their attitude now, Su Wanrong felt a little uncomfortable. Now, she tasted a bit of Mrs Liu’s suffering. It turned out that being ignored and not respected by others felt like this!
