Wei Tingyu found it somewhat amusing that he had been exposed today because his wives and concubines were too virtuous.
Judging from this, she probably started noticing him when he picked her up and held her in his arms.
Looking back now, Kang Ning suddenly fell silent, and even made a lot of sarcastic and mocking remarks about himself, the Marquis of Jining...
Without a doubt, she already knew who the enemy was who had grabbed her from behind! She was indeed a clever young lady!
"So Third Sister knew all along that this mountain king was an imposter..." Thinking of this, Wei Tingyu smiled again and said, "So she didn't struggle when she was sitting in my lap?"
"Hmph!" Third Sister Kang Ning was taken aback by these words, then her face turned red again. How was she supposed to answer this question?
If I just nod in agreement, wouldn't that make Wei Tingyu very proud? And my second sister, Fu Hui, would definitely laugh at me!
Who knows, she might tell her friends about what happened tonight, and then I'd lose face!
But if we say no, that's not right either!
Wouldn't that mean I'd be willingly sitting in another man's lap? Not to mention whether Wei Tingyu would overthink it, I'd feel wronged myself!
Kang Ning stopped struggling because she had clearly guessed that it was Wei Tingyu.
You can't just take the blame for something you didn't do and carry it on your back, can you?
"Alright, alright!" Seeing her third sister's somewhat coquettish yet aggrieved expression, Fu Hui couldn't help but burst out laughing.
She quickly stepped in to defuse the situation, saying, "My third sister is so clever, of course she would have guessed it long ago, otherwise how could she have let that mountain king get away with it?"
Hearing her second sister's words, Kang Ning's face flushed slightly again, but these words did answer Wei Tingyu's question for her.
Thinking of this, she glanced at her second sister with gratitude. Seeing that the other sister was also smiling sweetly at her, she finally felt relieved, as she had been feeling a little awkward.
It's quite normal for two women to share one husband, after all, wasn't that how the eldest and second eldest sisters had their wedding night in the backyard of the Li family?
Moreover, she and her two other younger sisters from the Li family were also destined to become concubines in the Marquis's mansion, and that day would come sooner or later!
But tonight's wedding night seems a bit too hasty!
For a woman, this is naturally something she is unwilling to accept.
"Don't worry!" Wei Tingyu saw the expression on Kang Ning's face, especially the slight disappointment in her eyes, and immediately understood what the girl was thinking.
Of course, he understood this perfectly. He had given the other women in the mansion perfect weddings, so Kang Ning couldn't be left out!
Thinking of this, Wei Tingyu reached out and slowly lifted Kang Ning's chin, then lowered his head and gently kissed her small lips before saying, "Don't worry, Third Sister! I will definitely give you a proper wedding ceremony in the future!"
"Really?" Kang Ning's face lit up immediately upon hearing this.
Logically speaking, as a concubine, she shouldn't have the right to make such demands, but having witnessed her elder sister's and second elder sister's wedding ceremony, she naturally didn't want to be treated differently as a younger sister of the same Li family!
Upon hearing Wei Tingyu's assurance, he was overjoyed!
"Of course it's true!" At this moment, the second sister, Fu Hui, nodded firmly, then actually reached out her soft hand and took Kang Ning's small hand, saying, "Don't worry, if the Marquis doesn't agree, neither will I and the other sisters of the Marquis's mansion!"
"Fine! You're all sisters!" Wei Tingyu rolled her eyes helplessly, then complained, "I'm the only outsider here!"
"Pfft!" When San Niang Kang Ning saw Wei Tingyu's expression, which looked like he had swallowed a fly, she couldn't help but laugh.
At the same time, she closed her eyes slightly, enjoying this quiet and peaceful moment, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
……
The next morning, Wei Tingyu stood in the middle of the house as casually as he did when he got up, while Fu Hui and Kang Ning were busy helping him change and get dressed!
Second Sister Fu Hui was naturally quite experienced in this matter, while Third Sister Kang Ning was rather clumsy.
Fortunately, this little girl is humble and eager to learn, so with her second older sister's help, she picked it up quickly.
Looking at the two Li sisters who were busy at work, Wei Tingyu felt quite emotional.
Now, the responsibility on my shoulders has become even heavier!
"Why does Your Excellency look so troubled?" Fu Hui knelt in front of Wei Tingyu, adjusting his belt, and looked up at his serious face before asking.
"But what did I do wrong?" For once, Third Sister Kang Ning showed a look of tension in her eyes.

Chapter 147 Sisters' Admiration! The Li Family is in Chaos!
After all, Kang Ning's status has changed now. She can go back and sign the concubine contract with her mother, Lady Li, and then go back to the Marquis's mansion with Wei Tingyu!
Kang Ning takes the requirements for her work after entering the Marquis's mansion very seriously!
After all, she has always been a person who refuses to admit defeat! Even if they become sisters in the Marquis's household in the future, she will not allow herself to be inferior to others!
Although she was quite skilled at burning incense and brewing tea, she was extremely inexperienced at helping men dress! This was a first for her!
Before Wei Tingyu could even speak after hearing Kang Ning's words, Erniang Fu Hui smiled helplessly.
How similar my third sister looks to me back then! Are we both afraid of upsetting our husbands by not serving them well enough?
However, it is clear that Kang Ning does not understand our Marquis. He would never get angry with his wives and concubines over such a trivial matter!
It was precisely because the Marquis was so generous and open-minded that the women in the mansion became increasingly strict with their own service requirements!
Of course, the stricter requirements only applied to their professional skills; their mindset actually became more relaxed. After all, the Marquis wasn't putting pressure on them; it was simply that they themselves wanted to do better and better!
"Second Sister, what are you laughing at?" Third Sister Kang Ning was genuinely worried that she had done something wrong when she saw her second sister laughing. She quickly checked the spot where she had just tugged at Wei Tingyu's sleeve, but found nothing wrong.
"It's not your fault!" However, Fu Hui had already understood what Wei Tingyu was thinking, so she directly said to her third sister, "The Marquis is thinking that there is now one more person in the manor! His responsibilities are even heavier!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Kang Ning's face flushed red. Wasn't that "new person" referring to herself? But despite her shyness, her heart was filled with sweet joy!
Wei Tingyu looked at Fu Hui with a mixture of surprise and delight.
She truly is my beloved little darling, Fu Hui! She really understands her husband's heart!
It must be said that, in terms of providing emotional value, Fu Hui is indeed the most outstanding among the women in her household!
"Alright!" After tying Wei Tingyu's belt, Fu Hui stood up and then circled around him, carefully looking him up and down.
After all, it was she and her third sister who served Wei Tingyu tonight. If something were to happen to the Marquis after they returned, the sisters in the manor would laugh at them!
Of course, there was one last jade pendant that hadn't been hung on Wei Tingyu's belt yet. However, after picking it up from the table, she didn't do it herself but carefully handed it to her third sister, Kang Ning.
Kang Ning was taken aback, because this jade pendant was a valuable item that Wei Tingyu always carried with him. She would see him wearing it almost every time she met him.
Now that her second sister has handed it to her, it's clear she's letting her complete the final step.
Thinking of this, Kang Ning did not refuse. He smiled and took the jade pendant from Fu Hui's hand, then gently knelt beside Wei Tingyu and tied the jade pendant around his waist.
Wei Tingyu watched as Kang Ning's small hands busied themselves, and only after she finished did he gently take her soft hand and help her up.
This must be the legendary "husband and wife living in perfect harmony"! This is basically how a woman behaves when her respect for her husband reaches its peak!
Of course, after the two women finished their work, they still had their own things to pack up, especially Kang Ning, who had a dress with the bright red plum blossoms she had left behind that she wanted to carefully put away.
With everything prepared, the sky was beginning to lighten, and the night was finally coming to an end.
When the two women followed Wei Tingyu out of the room and into the courtyard, they were immediately shocked by the blood-soaked scene before them!
"Ah!" The two women screamed almost simultaneously, and then quickly moved close to Wei Tingyu.
Third Sister Kang Ning was somewhat better, but she clung tightly to Wei Tingyu's arm, refusing to let go, her small face filled with terror. Even her body was trembling slightly, which Wei Tingyu clearly sensed.
The usually gentle second wife, Fu Hui, was even more frightened. She immediately burrowed into Wei Tingyu's arms, closed her eyes, and pressed her face tightly against his chest, not daring to open them.
It was as if, as long as I didn't open my eyes and look at everything in front of me, what I had just seen was nothing more than a nightmare!
"Alright, alright! It's alright now!" Wei Tingyu felt a pang of pity seeing the Li sisters trembling with fear beside him.
But it makes sense, considering that the two girls probably didn't even dare to watch scenes of pigs and sheep being slaughtered when they were young.
The thieves lying dead in the courtyard, their intestines ripped out, heads shattered, blood splattered, their deaths horribly gruesome, must have terrified them.
"My lord!" At this moment, San Niang Kang Ning slowly recovered under Wei Tingyu's comforting words. She cautiously raised her eyes and glanced at the corpse of a thief lying not far away, which was the one who had been in charge of guarding the two women.
Of course, Corning didn't recognize him because his eyes were covered at the time.
The guy's skull was gone, leaving only white brain matter and blood splattered all over the ground.
But after just one glance, she was so frightened that she closed her eyes again, and asked, "These thieves... how come they look so miserable?!"
"I was in a hurry to save you last night!" Wei Tingyu said, gently patting Kang Ning's back with his right hand. "I was a little too rough in the heat of the moment!"
"Then...they're all dead?" At this moment, Fu Hui, who was trembling in Wei Tingyu's arms, didn't even dare to open her eyes, but asked nervously.
"Of course!" Wei Tingyu almost laughed out loud when he heard this. This girl was asking obvious questions even in her fear.
However, seeing the two of them trembling like this, Wei Tingyu could only sigh and say, "When I came to save you last night, they were destined to die!"
"Ladies, there's no need to panic! It's just a few words on the surface!"
"And this is no one's fault but yours, for their fate was sealed the moment they set their sights on you last night!"
"I'm just acting on behalf of Heaven!"
With just a few words, Wei Tingyu took all the responsibility upon himself!
Of course, in the end, God has to take the blame!
Upon hearing Wei Tingyu's reply, Fu Hui and Kang Ning's tense hearts quickly calmed down.
At the same time, they also felt the importance that Wei Tingyu placed on them!
The more miserable the fate of these thieves is now, doesn't that just show how worried the Marquis is about him?
