Chapter 235 Changed My Mind
When Miss Mu was pregnant with her first child, the old marquis was injured in the battle and fell into a coma.

Miao Jiu volunteered to persuade Miss Mu to rest more and focus on her pregnancy, and he would take good care of the old marquis.

Miss Mu is a heavy child, cherishes her first child, and trusts her younger sister whom she raised. After the old marquis’ condition stabilizes, she asks Miao Jiu to take care of her.

Little did they know that Miao Jiu had ulterior motives.

When the old marquis’ health improved and he was used to Miao Jiu taking care of his diet and daily life, Miao Jiu took the opportunity to put drugs in his food and drink, and covered it up with alcohol.

The old marquis was insane, so Miao Jiu did whatever he wanted, and Miss Mu, who came to visit him, saw with her own eyes how the two of them made love in the tent.

Immediately, Miss Mu had a miscarriage and gave birth to a dead baby. The mother was also severely harmed and almost died.

The old marquis was in great pain and annoyance, but he just thought it was his own fault for drinking, which not only hurt his wife and children, but also caused Miao Jiu to lose his innocence.

After Miss Mu woke up, she was heartbroken and unable to face this matter, so she left the old marquis behind and returned to Beijing alone.

The old marquis originally wanted to bring the person back, but the enemy invaded the border and the war was tense. Once he withdrew, the border would be defeated.

Due to this delay, Miss Mu, who returned to her parents’ home, was forcibly given to a powerful official as a concubine by her declining family.

However, Miao Jiu became pregnant because of that incident and gave birth to Pei Sheng, her eldest son.

The old marquis returned in triumph and immediately went to look for Miss Mu, but everything had changed.

He was decadent and drunk all day long, hating himself for being weak and incompetent, and didn’t care about anything going on in the mansion.

Miao Jiu attached herself to the empress dowager at that time. The empress dowager took pity on her for being alone and helpless and for having given birth to a son, so she issued an imperial decree, ordering the old marquis to marry her.

Rumor has it in the capital that Miao Jiu has followed the old marquis for many years and is his virtuous wife, supporting him in his rapid rise to prominence.

But even the old marquis didn’t know that everything was planned by Miao Jiu.

After a few years, because Miao Jiu gave birth to a child after all, and the Queen Mother mediated and persuaded them to reconcile, the old marquis was kept in the dark and felt extremely guilty towards her, and even more unable to face it.

He always thought that if Miao Jiu hadn’t existed, the situation between him and his first wife wouldn’t have ended up like this.

But no matter what, it was he who took away Miao Jiu’s innocence. The two of them were already husband and wife. Even if they didn’t love each other, they had to respect each other.

Since then, the couple has been living in harmony but not in harmony, and this has been considered a good story to outsiders.

Until something happened to Miss Mu’s husband’s family, and all the women in the family were taken as government slaves.

The old marquis tried every means to rescue Miss Mu, but due to her status as an official slave, he was unable to restore her status in a public manner, and temporarily hid her in the mansion as a favorite concubine.

The love-hate entanglement over the years has made Miss Mu much calmer. She also feels that she was too impulsive back then. Perhaps if she had communicated more at the time, they would not have been separated for so many years.

Since we can get back together, we should let go of everything in the past that should be let go.

The old marquis treated Miss Mu as a treasure. After he got her back, he naturally loved her very much and did not take Miao Jiu seriously at all.

Miao Jiu seemed magnanimous and didn’t care, but he was extremely angry in his heart.

She understood very well that the old marquis was just waiting for the right time, and when the time comes he would return the position of wife to Miss Mu.

In order to consolidate her position, she took advantage of Miss Mu’s pregnancy and tried every means to please her, talking about their past sisterly love in an attempt to get close to Miss Mu.

Miss Mu is a kind and gentle person. Even though she still has some emotional issues, she does not distance herself too much from Miao Jiu.

Miao Jiu once again poisoned Miss Mu’s food and medicine, and even the doctor could not tell the mistake, causing Miss Mu to die of hemorrhage when giving birth to Pei Su.

The old marquis never knew the truth, and even though he had suspicions in his heart, he had no evidence and could not really convict the person.

But the old lady knew very well that all the wealth and glory she had now were snatched from Miss Mu.

If she had not been saved back then, Miss Mu would have been surrounded by her children and grandchildren, enjoying her old age. Perhaps because she was old and had no strength to fight anymore, the old lady could not continue to refute the old marquis, so she slowly stepped back a few steps and sat down on the chair.

Her chest heaved and a look of fear appeared on her face.

In recent days, she always saw the young Miss Mu, wearing white clothes and standing under the tree looking at her. She looked just as painful and hideous as when she was buried.

She couldn’t sleep well the whole night. As soon as she closed her eyes, she heard Miss Mu’s voice echoing in her ears.

Her sister asked her, Jiu, are you satisfied?
Your hands are stained with your sister’s blood, do you still want to continue to harm her bloodline?

The old lady’s pale hair was disheveled in the wind and her whole body was trembling with fear and panic.

In Pei’s house, Xie Fei was also asking about the older generation.

Under the flickering candlelight, Pei Yuan slowly and gently wiped her wet black hair.

“In short, this old lady is very scheming and definitely not a kind person. For the title, she will do whatever it takes until I die.”

“After you die, will the title return to the eldest wife’s hands?” Xie Fei asked, looking up.

Pei Yuan leaned over, kissed her forehead, and then said with a wicked smile: “If A Fei gives birth to a son for me, this title will eventually be in the hands of my child.”

Xie Fei blushed and pushed the shameless man away.

Pei Yuan came up to her, opened his arms to hold her, and placed his palm on her lower abdomen.

“Giving birth is like entering the gates of hell for women. If Ah Fei doesn’t want to give birth, don’t force yourself.”

Whether you have a title or not is actually not that important. After a hundred years, it will all disappear into thin air. Why bother with that?

Xie Fei put his hand on his arm and whispered, “You don’t care, but I still want it.”

She has few relatives and has been distant from them by blood in both her past and present lives.

I didn’t expect to have children before, and I didn’t want to give birth to a man I didn’t love, but now…

She tightened her fingers slightly, and raised her head again, looking at Pei Yuan’s jawline.

Pei Yuan kissed her eyebrows and asked with a smile: “What are you looking at?”

Xie Fei slowly closed his eyes.

Now, she has changed her mind.

She wanted to leave her bloodline in this world, leave behind her and Pei Yuan’s ties, and leave in satisfaction a hundred years later amid the cries of her children and grandchildren.

Pei Yuan had bitten her earlobe, held it in his mouth and licked it gently, and asked vaguely, “What are you thinking about, A Fei?” with a dull look in his eyes.

Xie Fei noticed that his hands were messing around again, and his eyes became even more dead.

“Do you know what it means to stop when you have enough?”

“We are newlyweds,” Pei Yuan said seriously, “Besides, if we don’t have a child, maybe this title will really be gone.”

“No, didn’t you say you don’t care?” Could you please consistent your wording?
Pei Yuan ignored all this and continued to tease Xie Fei skillfully, which made Xie Fei unable to bear it any longer.

Even if he tried his best to resist, Pei Yuan thought his strength was just like that of a cat.

I wanted to scold him severely and make him give up, but I was afraid that the servants outside would hear it and spread it throughout the mansion, and I would completely lose face.

If she had known earlier that Pei Yuan was actually an energetic and lecherous person, she would never have chosen this path.
