A life-saving grace led Lu Pingzhou to develop feelings for her. He had promised to marry her with a grand ceremony upon returning to the Capital, but as soon as he arrived, he was forced to become a groom midway. For the sake of his family, he had to marry Su Yi instead.
Afterward, he sent for her to Yizhou, but since he didn't want her to perform the concubine's rites for the Su Family, he didn't let her enter the mansion, purchasing a house to keep her outside.
She harbored feelings for him and wasn't overly concerned about status, even saying she was willing to enter the mansion as a concubine, but he refused no matter what.
It wasn't until the Su Family gave birth to a pair of illegitimate children and Lu Pingzhou switched them that he devised a way to let her into the mansion as a wet nurse.
A wet nurse had some status in the household, not needing to bow and scrape to the Su Family constantly, and would not easily endure their blame.
