Steward Cui went to report to Xie Yunhe and repeated Su Xiaoxiao’s words, including Su Xiaoxiao’s disdain and impatience for the children.

As for his hearing, he didn’t mention it.

It would be bad if Old Master felt that he was deaf and did not dare to entrust him with heavy responsibilities.

Xie Yunhe was not too surprised.

Su Xiaoxiao scolded everyone. It was impossible for her to actually dote on a few children she had never met.

It was this reaction that was real.

“Master, are we really going to take the blame?”

Xie Yunhe said, “The mastermind is here for the Saintess. Instead of letting them lead the children around to spread rumors, it’s better to detain the children in the residence to prevent any more trouble.”

Steward Cui thought that it made sense.

“I don’t understand. How did they think of this? They even found triplets?”

Because triplets were too rare, the news spread even faster. It spread throughout the capital almost overnight.

Xie Yunhe said, “Have you asked those children? Who taught them to call me

Mother?”

Steward Cui said, “I did. I don’t know if they didn’t understand or were frightened, but they didn’t say anything. Such young children were taught by others. If we really let them tell us, they won’t be able to understand. However, if we detain them, the person behind the scenes might not be able to sit still and come looking for us.”

Xie Yunhe nodded.

Steward Cui continued, “The Ji family is really unscrupulous.”

Even now, the Saintess still thought that the children were brought in by the Ji family.

After all, there was every reason for the Ji family to take the blame. After all, the assassins who went to assassinate Wei Xu that night were indeed the Ji family’s assassins.

At the Ji family.

Elder Ji returned home.

She was Old Master Ji’s niece.

She looked at her uncle in the master seat and said, “I heard that those children went to the Cheng family. I told you that they were the Saintess’ biological children. Uncle, don’t you believe me?”

Old Master Ji said, “The Cheng family just spread the news that the triplets are not the Saintess’ flesh and blood, but Cheng Su’s stepsons.”

Elder Ji frowned. “Stepsons?”

Old Master Ji told her the news he had heard. “That girl is engaged to someone in the countryside. The other party is a widower with three children. Seeing that the wedding was about to begin, that man came to the Cheng family to propose marriage. It seems that she doesn’t intend to acknowledge that marriage and deliberately escaped. Her fiancé was indignant, so he brought the children to the capital.”

“Impossible!”

Elder Ji said seriously, “Our people left a note before they died. It was written clearly that there was a man and four children hidden in Cheng Qingyao’s secret room. Cheng Qingyao and Cheng Su’s relationship is like fire and water.

How could she help Cheng Su hide a few stepsons? The children were Cheng

Qingyao’s! She must have forced that girl to acknowledge the children to protect her reputation!”

Old Master Ji waved his hand. “The most important thing now is not those children, but the expert hidden in the secret room by the Saintess. Is the level of his martial arts really that powerful?”

Elder Ji said calmly, “The Saintess was injured by him. What do you think, Uncle?”

Old Master Ji was shocked. “He could actually hurt the Saintess…”

The Saintess’s martial arts were not inferior to those puppet experts in the Holy Maiden Temple. There were not many people in the entire capital who could hurt her.

Old Master Ji could not bear to kill him anymore.

Elder Ji knew what he was up to when she saw his expression.

She sneered. “Uncle, give up as soon as possible. He won’t be used by the Ji family. Only the Saintess can control the her puppet. He will never betray her!”

On the other hand, the three little ones finally came to their mother’s side.

They were so excited that they only fell asleep in the latter half of the night.

Cheng Sang was not inferior.

As expected, the older one and the three young ones woke up late the next day.

Mei Ji was eating a roasted yam egg.

Su Xiaoxiao sat in front of the dressing table and changed her appearance.

“Did Grandmother did see my face?” Su Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.

When Cheng Sang went to look for her yesterday, she was asleep and had not disguised herself.

Mei Ji recalled, “I don’t think so. Her attention was all on the three children and she didn’t care to look at you. You’ve fallen out of favor.”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Speaking of which, the appearance of the three children seemed to have stabilized Cheng Sang’s condition.

Last night, when Cheng Sang watched Dahu and the others somersault on the bed, she suddenly said, “Weiwei also liked to somersault in my tummy.” This was the first time Cheng Sang smiled and recalled her pregnancy. According to Uncle Quan, it was too much of a blow to her because of the child’s premature death. She would even have a relapse when she remembered the time she was pregnant..
