Transmigration into a Book: My Lord, Your Wife Has Taken Another Concubine for You

Chapter 29 Lin Yanran preemptively gave her son a spot in the academy.

"There's only one day left in this month, so let's send Heng'er there next month! The boy is studying at the clan school, which is too close to the manor."

It's definitely not appropriate for a boy to grow up in the inner courtyard.

Lin Yanran seized the opportunity to finalize the matter quickly, partly because she remembered that in the novel, this spot was given to Chu Yunyun.

Secondly, with more people in the backyard, Lin Yanran was worried that they might lose their minds and start targeting Heng'er, and she was also worried that Heng'er's excessive concern for this small area in the backyard would affect his temperament.

A boy's vision should be set on the vast sky outside; as for things in the backyard, that's enough for him to understand.

Lin Yanran doesn't need her son to help her deal with the women in her backyard.

However, if it was her eldest son, Chu Yunxuan, who wanted to help her, Lin Yanran would gladly accept. After all, her reborn eldest son's worldview had already been formed, and it wouldn't affect his vision or temperament.

Chu Mochen was surprised by Lin Yanran's urgency. "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Lin Yanran explained without changing her expression, "Children's education is a big deal. Since we've made the decision, the earlier the better."

Besides, Heng'er and Yun'er both attend the clan school, where some children will inevitably fawn over the older ones and look down on the younger ones. Over time, this will negatively affect the relationship between the two brothers.

Chu Mochen also liked Yun'er, his illegitimate son, but parental love isn't about unconditional pampering. Yun'er wasn't born from his mother's womb, so many things were destined to be missing:

"Yun'er will have to adapt to being a son of a concubine sooner or later. In this world, only by having the ability can you shut others up."

"It's about adapting, but Yun'er is still just a child. Although I don't like Aunt Sun, I won't take it out on the child."

"Since we've already brought her into this world, it'll be good for her to be a help to Xuan'er in the future."

Lin Yanran demonstrated her magnanimity. With the increasing number of people in the backyard, it was still uncertain whether Chu Yunyun could grow up safely.

We can't just throw anything dirty or smelly on her anymore.

"Madam is so thoughtful. Yun'er and the others are fortunate to have a stepmother like you."

Chu Mochen was in an extremely good mood. Having beautiful wives and concubines, and children around him was the life he wanted.

In response to Chu Mochen, Lin Yanran placed a piece of food he didn't like on his plate.

Chu Mochen only frowned slightly and smiled as he ate. "Why did Mother send my eldest uncle's cousin to be my concubine?"

"Maybe Mother misses her family and wants someone from her family to keep her company. It's not a big deal, so let's just accept it!"

It's like having another person to keep Mom company and help her pass the time.

The silver notes have already been accepted; regardless of whether Chu Mochen is satisfied with the concubine, it's impossible for him to return them.

Even if Chu Mochen had a lot to say, he couldn't bring himself to say it, lest he appear unfilial. "I was just asking casually."

Chu Mochen, who used to be fond of beautiful women but now prefers health preservation, advised Lin Yanran: "If anyone tries to offer me a concubine in the future, just refuse, Madam. I already have quite a few people in my harem."

Lin Yanran inwardly mocked Chu Mochen's incompetence, but outwardly she was gentle and virtuous, saying, "Well, I definitely can't accept what I can refuse, but if it's really hard to refuse, then I'll have to accept it."

If you really can't refuse, it's because the other party gave you too much.

Chu Mochen didn't think there was anything Lin Yanran couldn't refuse. He hadn't had a concubine all these years; whose credit was that?

But Chu Mochen was afraid that Lin Yanran would overturn the table, so he didn't dare to say anything and could only eat his meal in silence.

Chu Mochen had just finished his meal and taken a sip of his digestive tea when he heard Lin Yanran say, "My lord, you should go and visit Consort Xie! Tonight is Consort Xie's first night in the manor. If you don't go, it will be difficult for Mother to save face."

When Chu Mochen heard the words he had always dreamed of hearing, he felt not ecstatic but rather a sense of loss.

Chu Mochen tilted his head back and drank the digestive tea in one gulp, then put down the teacup. "Then I'll go take a look."

He had expected that his words would prompt his wife to ask, "Will you come back?", but after standing there for a while, he only received a questioning look from Lin Yanran. "Is there anything else, Lord Marquis?"

Chu Mochen could only shake his head in disappointment, quickly turned around and walked outside. After leaving Lin Yanran's courtyard, a feeling of embarrassment inexplicably rose from the bottom of his heart.

However, Chu Mochen didn't think much of it. He just glanced back at the main courtyard and left with his men.

Chu Mochen originally intended to visit Aunt Xie, whom he had never met, but when he passed by Aunt Sun's courtyard, he saw Aunt Sun admiring flowers in the courtyard.

Looking at the quiet and leisurely Aunt Sun, Chu Mochen thought back to the years when he had just taken her in as his concubine; she was always so serene that it was heartbreaking.

Chu Mochen casually walked in. "What is Rou'er looking at?"

Dressed in a pale white outfit, Consort Sun feigned surprise and hurriedly bowed, "When did the Marquis arrive?"

Chu Mochen reached out and helped Aunt Sun up. "Rou'er still hasn't told me what you're looking at?"

Sun Xinrou smiled gently, "I was just bored and looking around. With these flowers keeping me company, I don't feel the courtyard is so quiet and lonely."

Chu Mochen looked at the deserted courtyard and thought of the times when the two children used to chatter around Rou'er: "Is it because Yun'er and Yu'er aren't around that you're not used to it?"

If you're really bored, you can go find Aunt Jin and the others to do some needlework together to pass the time.

Upon hearing Chu Mochen's words, Sun Xinrou felt not happiness, but rather deep sadness.

In the Marquis's heart, he could only pass the time by doing needlework with Aunt Jin and the others.

Sun Xinrou was heartbroken, but she remained calm on the surface. "You know my temperament, my lord. I don't like things to be complicated. It's quite nice to just look at the flowers and plants like this."

"If you like these, I'll have the front yard send you more. I'll also come and keep you company when I have time." After saying this, Chu Mochen patted Sun Xinrou's hand and was about to leave.

When Chu Mochen came in just now, he was preoccupied with his memories, but now he has come to his senses.

If he stays at Aunt Sun's place tonight, his mother might call him in for a lecture again tomorrow.

Chu Mochen is currently very busy at work and has no energy to deal with these matters in the backyard.

Disappointed and resentful, Sun Xinrou could only let go of Chu Mochen's hand. "My lord, please go and attend to your business! I'll be happy if you come to see me when you have time."

Chu Mochen smiled at Sun Xinrou again, then left with his servants.

When Chu Mochen entered Xie Anyan's courtyard next door, Sun Xinrou was still standing in her yard, listening to the joyful sounds of greetings from next door.

She told herself not to be sad, that he was a marquis, but tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably.
