Shu Yu stood on the wall and saw that there was no one in the courtyard. She immediately landed lightly in the courtyard.

There was some movement from the central room inside. Shu Yu followed the sound and saw the fortune-teller and Madame Yu sitting there talking. The maidservant was serving tea.

After talking for a short while, Madame Yu had the maidservant stand guard in the courtyard.

When Shu Yu saw the maidservant come out, she hurriedly took a few steps back and hid in a corner.

The maidservant moved a stool over and sat by the courtyard door.

Shu Yu frowned. If she wanted to eavesdrop outside the central room again, she would definitely be seen by this maidservant. What should she do?

Just as she was thinking about whether she should go around to the back to take a look, she heard the fortune-teller and Madame Yu leave the central room and enter the left wing.

Outside the window of the wing room was where Shu Yu was hiding.

Shu Yu was amused. She immediately opened the window a crack and squinted her eyes to look inside.

She hadnt expected the scene that entered her eyes to make her want to poke her eyes.

Madame Yu and the fortune-teller hugged and kissed each other as soon as they entered the room. They were so l.u.s.tful that they looked like a couple who had only reunited after a long time.

Only then did Shu Yu see the fortune-tellers appearance clearly. He was indeed well-groomed. If one disregarded his wide and gray Daoist robe, he was quite good -looking.

No wonder Madame Yu left the manor in the evening for a tryst.

Shu Yu sighed inwardly for a moment, and the two people in the room also separated.

Madame Yus breathing was a little unstable as she sat at the side. She glared at the fortune-teller shyly and said, Look at how impatient you are. You have to control yourself. Im still carrying our child in my stomach.

Shu Yu looked up abruptly. A child?

So thats how it is. She had found it strange before. The fortune-teller said that as long as Lord Yu adopted a pair of twins, he would be able to get a child. But if he did adopt the twins, what would the fortune-teller do if Madame Yu still didnt get pregnant? Wouldnt the fortune-teller be swallowed alive by Lord Yu then?

So it turned out that Madame Yu was already with child, and it was even the fortune-tellers seed. Next, they just had to find a pair of twins to prove that the fortune-teller was really capable.

Shu Yu laughed coldly to herself.

The fortune-teller smiled and said, Dont worry, this child is the foundation of our future. I wont let anything happen to him.

As he spoke, he touched Madame Yus belly and asked, The child is almost a month old. How is the adoption of the twins going?

I came here to talk to you about this. Didnt I meet an old woman before who said that her daughter has a boy-girl twin and that she would send them over to us in two days? Ive sent someone to look for her this morning. In the end, the old woman said that there was an accident and that we have to wait for two more days. Shes too unreliable. G.o.d knows if the two children can be sent here smoothly in two days. How about you? Did you find the twins who escaped?

The fortune-tellers expression turned cold, No. If the two children hadnt escaped, our plan could have been implemented long ago and we wouldnt have had to find another pair of twins. After Lord Yu believes that I am truly capable, he will only value me more and more in the future. With the two of us working together from the inside, the entire Yu family will be ours. Weve been looking forward to this day for a long time. The twins in the hands of the old woman you mentioned must be sent over without any mishaps.
