The rumor that Yueyao was a Lucky Star quickly reached Lady Cheng's ears. Originally overjoyed by the imminent arrival of a grandchild, she was now so enraged by the news that she smashed the cup she was holding fiercely onto the ground.
Lady Cheng cursed angrily, "Such a Jinx, bringing misfortune to whoever she encounters. Who on earth is spreading such nonsense?" She couldn't fathom what sort of bewitching drug that wretched girl had given the Old Master to make him favor her even more than her own Linlin.
Lady Cheng declared furiously, "Whoever dares to spout such nonsense will get twenty strokes." She wanted to stop the rumors but unfortunately, Zhuang Ruolan managed the household at Ma's Mansion and with both Ma Chengteng and Ma Peng's public support, there was nothing she could do, despite her anger.
