The heavenly god understood: “Oh, that’s fine. If their marital relationship improves, you can return. You won’t need to manage the rest.”
“Possession? Haha!” The heavenly god laughed again, “No worries, she won’t know about the ‘possession’. By slightly modifying her memory details, she’ll just think these were her own actions.
Liu Zhengyu saw her lowering her eyes with sadness, and his heart softened.
Yu Yi nodded, gently pressing her handkerchief to the corner of her eye, and looked up to give Liu Zhengyu a slight smile: “I hope this time the Liu family can add a son.”
Liu Zhengyu’s heart stirred.
Jin Zhi actually looked quite good, with a fair, oval face embedded with a pair of round, pitch-black eyes. She was gentle and accommodating, and when they first married, their relationship was quite harmonious.
However, since Hong Yan entered the household, Jin Zhi appeared dull and unlikable compared to the clever and talkative Hong Yan. Moreover, due to years of childlessness, Jin Zhi often looked worried. Even when he stayed in her room, she would constantly sigh, making him reluctant to stay by her side. Yet at this moment, seeing her eyes moist and that slight smile, he once again felt the same excitement as when they first married.
He hesitated before saying: “Jin Zhi, I’ll have dinner here today.” By saying this, he meant he would also stay the night.
Yu Yi was stunned, then nodded: “Okay.”
Managing household affairs was originally the responsibility of the principal wife, but Jin Zhi had never been one to compete for power or harbor suspicions. She was gradually relieved of her duties by Hong Yan under the pretext of helping her.
Towards the end of the year, Jin Zhi made a mistake when preparing the New Year gift list, somehow omitting Liu Zhengyu’s fourth uncle’s family, which she only discovered after the New Year, causing great awkwardness for Liu Zhengyu. Immediately after, a maidservant in her household was caught stealing property, and Hong Yan seized the opportunity to stir up trouble. Liu Zhengyu began to doubt Jin Zhi’s ability to manage the household and declared that all household affairs would be managed by Hong Yan.
