Chapitre 307: Chapter 306: Recognizing Relatives

After Mr. Chu became disabled, his temperament changed drastically and he became unpredictable. His father, the Marquis, and his deceased mother cherished him. His brothers indulged him, which led to his unhealthy habits of indulgence in pleasure, slumbering under flowering trees, and loitering under willows.

One chambermaid, cunning as she was, slipped him a contraceptive soup, bore him his first illegitimate son, and ascended to the position of Auntie Fang.

Having become disabled and fathering an illegitimate son only made it more difficult for Mr. Chu to find a wife.
