t.i.tle: The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir

Chapter 291 - Other than possessing his heart, have you thought about your future? (2)

After silently cursing him for a bit, she suddenly heard him say, ”Go make the arrangements to bury Yun-er. I”ll have a Buddhist monk come over and perform a ceremony to help Yun-er's soul find peace. In the pa.s.sing, let's settle Wan-er status too. She can go back to being the secondary wife. I was the one that wronged her, so don't treat her unfairly when it comes to food, clothing, and other material goods.”

Ji Man was somewhat stunned. The result of Wen Wan dropping her child was that the problem of her status, which hadn't been resolved even with the birth of this baby, was now resolved. Was Wen Wan on the same setting as an unkillable c.o.c.kroach, ah? No matter how many times she beat her down, Wen Wan seemed to have a pre-installed system that would keep bring her back. She was like a tempo that would keep bouncing back up.

Feeling uncomfortable in her heart, Ji Man lowered her eyes and said, ”Miss Wan-er's status has already gone up and down several times. If someone's status is changed too frequently, then outsiders won't value the seniority and ranking system in the marquis's household. This servant thinks that it wouldn't be considered treating Miss Wan-er unfairly if she becomes an honored concubine. After all, as an honored concubine, her daily lifestyle wouldn't be that much different from a secondary wife's. Siling will also naturally do a thorough job of arranging this.”

Ning Yuxuan raised his eyebrows. He looked at her before saying, ”Do you think Wan-er shouldn't be a secondary wife?”

”Of course,” Ji Man seriously said, ”Xis.h.i.+ and Hanyun both had children before her, and they were both sons too. My lord, if you want to raise Wan-er's rank, then how do you plan on raising their ranks? It's already pus.h.i.+ng it to promote Wan-er from a servant girl all the way up an honored concubine. If she becomes a secondary wife, then what will Xis.h.i.+ and Hanyun think?”

Marquis Moyu considered her words and thought her logic was sound.

”This servant thinks, if you want to raise Wan-er up, you should also let Hanyun become a secondary wife.”

”En?” Ning Yuxuan slowly sat down. ”Why is Hanyun and not Xis.h.i.+? Haohao is the one that will be my heir.”

Ji Man nodded. ”It's fine that Haohao will be your heir, but Hanyun has also given birth to a son. In addition, she's served my lord for several years without ever competing for favor. My lord, could it be that you don't think she deserves to bestow with any favor? Since you're going to raise Wen Wan's status, then you should raise everyone else's too. This will avoid making the other mothers feeling unhappy. My lord, what do you think?”

After rubbing his temples, Ning Yuxuan said, ”Let's do what you suggested. I need time alone to calm down about Yun-er's matter. You can leave first.”

”Alright.” Ji Man nodded.

The female lead wanted to turn around her fortunes and had certainly paid a heavy cost to accomplish her goal. She had sacrificed her daughter in exchange for improving her status. This wasn't something that Ji Man was capable of. She could only make a sound of admiration.

Right now, Nie Clan wasn't in a good situation, and her position in the marquis's household was in a delicate, tricky state. She had no other choice. She could only pull Xis.h.i.+ and Hanyun to the frontline of the battlefield with her. Otherwise, if she allowed Wen Wan to bounce back up again, it would be very troublesome for her.

Ji Man saw Monk Xuwu again when he came over to perform a ceremony to help Yun-er's departed soul find peace.

She had heard that this monk had high-level skills through religious cultivation, but he was a bit wild and deranged.

When he saw her from a distance, he came over and said, ”You're going to encounter something troublesome soon.”

Ning Yuxuan was standing by Xuwu's side. Hearing these words, he frowned and glanced at her. Then, he asked Xuwu, ”What kind of trouble?”
