Matriarchal Desires

Zi Yuan fell silent and eventually responded, “Everything will be as the master commands.” This was a hidden mansion in the mountains, where both servants and kitchen staff possessed high-level martial arts skills. They were formerly subordinates of the master, and now, except for a few important people, no one knows that the current master is the former master.

Thinking of that person, Zi Yuan said, “Su Shao Jun has already settled in. When does the master plan to meet him?”

Jin Yu was momentarily taken aback, a hint of bitterness crossing her face. After a silence, she replied, “Zi Yuan, remember, he is no longer my official husband. From now on, he is just Master Su.”

Zi Yuan’s eyes reflected a sudden realization. “Does Master Su know about the master’s previous identity?”

“Not yet, and don’t let him know,” Jin Yu’s tone was calm. Although Su Chen Bi had suffered after her death, this could not fully erase her sorrow. “Let him stay here for now. We’ll discuss his matters later.”

“…Yes.” Zi Yuan lowered his eyes. “After finishing tomorrow’s tasks, I’ll treat Young Master Xu’s eyes.”

“Mm,” Jin Yu’s expression softened with concern. “You should also treat Su Xi. His belly is large, but he hasn’t experienced morning sickness yet. I’m worried. And Little Lian, I told you about his condition. He fainted again recently, and it seems the medication is no longer effective.”

“Master, I understand.”

Jin Yu looked at him. “How are the wedding preparations for tomorrow?”

“Everything is ready.”

When Jin Yu arrived at Su Xi’s room, she thought, “What a foolish person,” and indeed, he was waiting for her.

Su Xi was stunned when Jin Yu pushed open the door and smiled, tears welling in his eyes. “You’re here.”

Jin Yu embraced him, gently stroking his frail back. “How have you been these past few nights?”

“The baby and I are fine,” Su Xi’s voice choked as he looked up at her adoringly. It felt like they hadn’t been this close in so long, but he still loved her embrace.
