The wicked mother-in-law doesn't try to whitewash herself; she only abuses her awful children.

Chapter 860 Able to Give Birth to Eight Sons
Uncle?

The doorman thought it was Lu's family members who came to visit.

Lu had been managing the Su residence for so many years and had certain connections in the residence. The doorman had met Lu's brother and sister-in-law twice. It was said that they opened a pork shop on East Market Street and looked completely different from the two people in front of him.

Out of caution, the doorman did not chase the man away, but instead sent a servant to inform Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu looked puzzled. Her family only included her brother and sister-in-law, and they had already arrived in Shengjing, but they refused to come over when she was asked to.

"Four people, a couple, with a son and a daughter. The son and the daughter are about the same age as our young master." The servant described the family of four he saw to Mrs. Lu.

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she gritted her teeth and cursed Su Shihang inwardly, calling him a beast.

No wonder he called Su Shihang son-in-law. She suspected that the young man and young lady the servant was talking about were Su Shihang's illegitimate children outside, and now they had come to her door.

She had finally made Su Chengmin hate the Su family and leave the Su family, but now Su Shihang has another big son. How could she allow it?

Madam Lu frantically called for help, urging them to quickly drive the person out while Old Madam Su was unaware, and ideally, to move the person outside the city and kill them to prevent future troubles.

The Su Mansion can only belong to Su Chengji.

She had already planned it all out. She would find an opportunity to poison Old Madam Su and kill her, find a wife for Su Chengji, and adopt a child from the clan.

No matter who is a descendant of Su Shihang outside, it is a dream if they want to enter the Su family.

The maidservant beside Lu took the order and left, but soon came back and told Lu in a panic that the people had entered the mansion and were invited to the old lady's yard.

Mrs. Lu's mind exploded and she hurried to the old lady's room.

Old Lady Su looked Tong Zhaodi up and down. Although she was a bit rustic, she looked good and was not an eyesore to Su Shihang. Although she was unwilling to take a charming concubine for her son, she would not take an ugly and unsightly concubine for her son either.

What’s more important is that she has a round butt and a thin waist, and you can tell at first glance that she is good at giving birth.

"Was the baby born to your previous family a boy or a girl?" asked Old Mrs. Su.

The head of the village did not hide the fact from Old Lady Su that Tong Zhaodi had been married and had children.

Old Lady Su didn't mind whether Tong Zhaodi was married or not. After all, she was not marrying a wife for her son. She was just looking for a concubine who could give birth. The important thing was that she could give birth to a son.

"Madam, my daughter gave birth to a son as her first child."

Wang was afraid that Tong Zhaodi would say it was a daughter, so she jumped out to answer.

Old Lady Su glanced at Wang and felt unhappy. What kind of fate did her son have? The mothers of Lu and Min Baozhen's two consecutive wives were both vulgar country women, and now the mother of this concubine was just as vulgar.

"When my daughter was a young woman, a fortune teller said she was destined to have eight sons, and that the sons would be extremely noble. Her previous husband's wife gave birth to two daughters and then never had any more affairs. After divorcing her, he married our Zhaodi, who gave birth to a big fat boy a year after she got married."

Mrs. Su was moved by her eight sons and asked, "Since you have sons, why did you get divorced?"

Wang gritted her teeth and said, "It's too shameful to tell this story. I dare not hide it in front of the old lady. Her husband is ill and can't move. My daughter's parents-in-law treated her harshly. We couldn't bear to see her suffer, so we let her divorce."

Tong Zhaodi added at the right moment, "The fortune teller said I could give birth to eight sons, seven of whom would have extremely noble fates. I gave birth to one, and the man wasn't able to conceive. I figured it was because he couldn't control the son with such a noble fate, as sons with such a noble fate can only be born to the family of Wenquxing."

Old Mrs. Su looked at Tong Zhaodi with great satisfaction.

She loved to hear this, because her son, who was once a famous scholar in Shengjing, was the Wenquxing.

Her son had a good fate. The Su family had been poor for generations, but her son took on the responsibility of inheriting the family fortune and became the top scholar and an official in the imperial court.

With a destiny like her son's, she should have eight sons with extremely noble destinies. The more Old Madam Su looked at Tong Zhaodi, the more satisfied she became, and said, "First, make her a concubine, and after she gives birth to a son, elevate her to the status of a mistress."

Tong Fusheng frowned. He was not very satisfied with this arrangement.

Before coming to Shengjing, the village head told him that Tong Zhaodi could become a concubine as soon as she entered the mansion, and the concubine of a wealthy family was half the master of the mansion.

What's a concubine? She's just a bed-warmer, no different from a slave.

After all, Tong Fusheng is a scholar, so how could he let his daughter become a slave?

Tong Fusheng said with an unhappy face: "A concubine? It was agreed that she would be a concubine as soon as she entered the mansion. My Zhaodi has eight sons, how can she be a concubine?"

Old Madam Su frowned and said, "You've already sent your daughter to be your mistress, yet you still care about the terms like tongfang and concubine. Isn't that just like taking off your pants to fart?"

Tong Fusheng was stunned.

Is this the imperial consort who raised the third place in the imperial examination?
How can you speak so rudely?

Lu originally thought that Tong Zhijie and Tong Zhaodi were Su Shihang's illegitimate daughters, and Tong Fusheng and Wang were their slaves. These four people came to the Su Mansion as loyal servants to escort their master to Beijing to recognize his ancestors.

After entering the house, she heard the conversation between Old Lady Su and Wang, and it didn't look like what she had imagined. Lu was confused.

Only after hearing what she heard later did she realize that this group of people were selling their daughter to Su Shihang as a concubine.

Mrs. Lu looked at the high-spirited Tong Zhaodi. She was dressed in a rustic way, but she was young and had a mature charm that young girls did not have.

And she's been married.

A married woman is better at winning over men than a young girl.

More importantly, she can give birth.

Mrs. Lu felt her position was threatened and hurriedly said to Old Lady Su, "Old Lady, don't trust the words of fortune tellers. They are all charlatans. Whether a woman can give birth to eight sons is not something that can be determined by a fortune teller's words. Old Lady, please don't be fooled by these people."

Originally, Old Lady Su only planned to give Tong Zhaodi the status of a concubine. When she heard that Lu dared to express her opinion on this matter, she felt that her authority was challenged and her rebellious mentality suddenly came to her head.

What dares to question her decision?

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm senile or a fool? It's not your turn to interfere in the affairs of the Su family. If you were capable of giving birth to eight sons, it wouldn't be anyone else's turn to enter the mansion. Now that you don't have the chance, you're not allowing anyone else to give birth to eight sons for my Su family?"

Mrs. Lu's face turned pale after being confronted.

Wang, Tong Zhaodi and others thought that Lu was Su Shihang's wife, so they stood up and saluted Lu, but their expressions did not show any respect.

Even Old Lady Su had already given her such a loss of face, so her position as a wife wasn't very stable.

Tong Zhaodi couldn't wait to enter the mansion and mess up the inner quarters.

"Madam? She is not the real madam of our Su family." Old Mrs. Su said vaguely, without emphasizing Lu's current identity.

Tong Zhaodi showed disdain on her face. She was the same as her, both concubines, but she entered the mansion earlier than her.

"How about this, since you have a straightforward personality and are not bad looking, you can come into the mansion and become a concubine. I'll have a wedding banquet for you in three days. When you give birth to your first son, I'll make you my concubine."

Old Mrs. Su confirmed Tong Zhaodi's identity.

Tong Zhaodi was overjoyed to be promoted from a concubine to a concubine.
