The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 30: Was he seduced by her?
The three nodded hurriedly, "We want to." After saying that, their faces turned red and they whispered, "In wealthy families, a mother's status depends on her son. Now that we've entered the Li family, our lives will be like that. If we can have offspring, we'll have someone to rely on in the future."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wei said nothing.

Most women nowadays think this way.

They believed that having children was a woman's greatest guarantee in life.

Seeing that she remained silent, the three men became somewhat uneasy and said anxiously, "Madam, we are not greedy. We just want to be able to gain a foothold in the Li family. Otherwise, if we are sent away by the Li family, we will be sold into a brothel again."

Seeing the three of them looking uneasy, Yun Wei nodded, "I understand. Go back and wait for news."

Seeing that she didn't blame them, the three breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, Madam. We'll head back now."

"Mm." Yun Wei nodded.

After the three left, Tian'er asked in confusion, "Miss, are you really going to help them?"

"It was just something I did on the spur of the moment," Yun Wei said.

The three women were originally going to be sold to a brothel by their families, but Tian'er found them and took them from their families.

The original purpose of bringing them into the Li family was to annoy Li Yaoting and Chen Yuniang.

Since they were willing to serve Li Yaoting, it wouldn't be a big deal for her to give them a push.

Because this will give the Li family's backyard a good show to watch.

Chen Yuniang was no pushover. She claimed that she and Li Yaoting were deeply in love and that no one else could be allowed between them. Therefore, she could not tolerate three concubines taking Li Yaoting away.

But those three concubines, judging from their behavior today, are no pushovers either.

They would do anything to stay in the Li family and enjoy wealth and luxury.

Tian'er also understood this point and asked excitedly, "Then how can Miss help them?"

Yun Wei smiled and whispered something in her ear.

Sweetie's eyes widened. "You really want to do that?"

"Mm." Yun Wei nodded calmly.

Tian'er clapped her hands and said, "Miss, this move is brilliant! Chen Yuniang will definitely be furious!"

Yunwei smiled and said, "Don't be so happy yet, go and get some paper and pen."

"Yes," Tian'er replied and immediately went to fetch paper and pen.

Yunwei picked up a pen and wrote down a prescription on a piece of paper, instructing, "Go to the pharmacy yourself to get it, but don't let anyone see you."

Tian'er took the paper, somewhat surprised, "Is this a prescription?"

Yun Wei's eyes flickered, and she nodded, "You could say that." However, this prescription was not for treating an illness.

Sweetie was very surprised.

The young lady can actually write prescriptions.

No wonder Miss reads medical books every morning. She originally thought Miss was just reading casually to pass the time, but she never expected that Miss could apply what she learned and even write prescriptions.

Sweetie admired her young mistress more and more.

After she put the prescription away, she went out.

After she returned with the medicine, Yunwei began to prepare the medicinal powder.

She can make all kinds of poisons and antidotes. This kind of powder is something she can easily make.

She quickly prepared the medicine powder.

Just as he finished dividing the medicine powder into three porcelain bottles, Li Yaoting arrived at Yilan Courtyard with a gloomy expression.

When Yunwei caught a glimpse of his expression, she knew that he had come to confront Chen Yuniang.

Chen Yuniang suffered a loss at her hands this morning, and given her personality, she would never keep it to herself; she would definitely complain to Li Yaoting.

Sure enough, the next moment, Li Yaoting coldly questioned, "Yu Niang is magnanimous and doesn't hold grudges. She came to serve you tea, but you either made her kneel down or threw tea at her. How can your heart be so vicious?" "Kneeling down to serve tea is what every concubine should do. Why is it not allowed when it comes to Chen Yu Niang?" Yun Wei retorted.

Li Yaoting frowned, "Then you shouldn't have spilled her tea!"

"Did I splash her on purpose? I just didn't hold the bowl properly. Besides, she herself said that even if I splashed her, I shouldn't have splashed her. So why did she turn around and complain to you? I thought she was a generous and kind person, but I didn't expect her to be someone who likes to gossip and spread rumors behind people's backs." Yun Wei shook her head with a disappointed look.

Li Yaoting was speechless.

After a long pause, he said again, "Why don't the three people who came with Yu Niang need to be served tea to you? I think you are clearly targeting Yu Niang on purpose."

Yun Wei looked surprised. "So you've already acknowledged that Aunt Shen and the other two are your concubines? In that case, I'll have someone invite them over right away to serve me tea again?"

Li Yaoting's face darkened as he said, "Don't try to be unreasonable. I never said I acknowledged them as my concubines."

"If you don't admit it, why should they serve me tea?" Yun Wei asked sharply.

Li Yaoting opened his mouth, but suddenly found himself speechless.

"However, whether you admit it or not, now that they've entered the Li family, they're your concubines. After you've consummated your marriage, I'll have them come to serve you tea," Yunwei said slowly.

Li Yaoting's face darkened. "Yun family, don't act on your own!"

Yun Wei asked in surprise, "Me, making decisions on my own? That can't be right, can it? Shouldn't you be the one to do it yourself? How could I go in your place?"

Li Yaoting's temple throbbed with anger as he said, "Yun Shi, don't talk nonsense. I'm talking about how you took them into your household without my consent."

“But the old lady agreed.” Yunwei said dismissively, “Otherwise, no matter how capable I am, I cannot keep her in the manor. If you are dissatisfied, you should not have come to me.”

"You're being unreasonable!" Li Yaoting said, his face darkening, and stormed off.

Yunwei chuckled and handed the three porcelain bottles to Tian'er, saying, "Send these to Aunt Shen and the other two."

Since Li Yaoting was so dissatisfied that she only allowed Chen Yuniang to serve tea and not Shen Yiniang and the other two, she would grant his wish and have the three of them serve her tea after they succeeded.

Tian'er nodded, beaming with joy, "This servant will go right away."

"Wait a minute." Yunwei remembered something and called her back, instructing her, "Tell them that this medicine is very potent, so don't add too much at once. Just add about four finger caps' worth, that will be enough."

Sweetie blushed and said, "This servant understands."

At this moment, Chen Yuniang was in the courtyard, happily waiting for Li Yaoting to bring back good news.

She had suffered a humiliating defeat at Yun's hands that morning, and she wasn't about to let it go so easily.

Sure enough, she cried in front of Li Yaoting, and Li Yaoting went to Yun Shi to confront her.

Hmph, the Yun family only dares to be arrogant in front of her. Tinglang will definitely not let her off the hook.

She was waiting for the Yun family to come and apologize to her.

No, she wouldn't accept her apology; she'd throw tea all over her to quell her anger.

Just as she was plotting how to humiliate Yun Wei, Li Yaoting returned.

Chen Yuniang was overjoyed and rushed to greet him, "Tinglang, how is it?"

Meeting her expectant gaze, Li Yaoting paused, feeling somewhat uneasy.

He only realized after leaving Yilan Courtyard that he hadn't helped Chen Yuniang get justice.

But now that he's already out, it wouldn't be good for him to go back to the Yun family; that would only weaken his momentum.

Moreover, given Yun's sharp tongue, he wouldn't gain any advantage at all.

He coughed lightly, put his hand on Chen Yuniang's shoulder, and comforted her, "Yuniang, it is true that when a concubine enters the household, she must serve tea to the principal wife. This is true not only in our family but also in other families. Yunshi has not done anything excessive to you, so please don't take it to heart."

Chen Yuniang's smile froze as she looked at him in disbelief. Yun Shi hadn't done anything excessive to her.

They made me kneel down, they splashed tea on me, they made all sorts of difficult things, wasn't that going too far?
Li Yaoting actually told her not to take it to heart?
Chen Yuniang turned pale with anger. "Li Yaoting, why are you siding with Yun Shi like this? Have you been seduced by her?"
