Chapter 134 Never So Fierce
What's her reaction?
Nervous and guilty?
The old lady had been wondering how such a small matter could have gotten to such an unmanageable point. When she heard that it was her daughter who got involved and dragged the Marquis's Mansion into it, she was furious. Then she thought of Qi Rui's sudden change of mind, going back on his word and making fun of her daughter, which made her even more angry. When she suddenly saw Nanny Li's reaction, she couldn't help but wonder if there was any hidden story behind what happened that day.
boom!
The old lady slammed the table and looked at Li Ma:
"What happened that day? Tell me again in detail!"
If Qi Rui had agreed to the conditions himself, he would have no reason to control Sang Shu, and Sang Shu would have no reason to compromise. Now that the matter has fallen on his own daughter, it is obvious that it has not succeeded.
Then how did she report back that it was successful?
With a plop, Nanny Li knelt on the ground. Since she heard the rumor, she had naturally guessed the general situation. But the more she understood, the more she knew that the mistake could not be hers. So, while kowtowing, she gritted her teeth and said:
"Madam, it seems to me that it has been done, but, but I did not see it with my own eyes."
"I only saw him successfully enter and exit, and I also went in to verify that the person in the room had indeed collapsed. As for whether he did anything or what happened in the room, I really don't know."
"Even if he changed his mind at the last minute, or encountered something that delayed him inside, he would not tell me."
"The old lady is very observant."
"You also know that the one in Yuxiuyuan just woke up a few days ago and is still lying in bed to recuperate. We have done everything we can and should do. This, the rest... is not something we can control."
The old lady thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
In the end, Qi Rui should be blamed the most. It was just that the duck was delivered to his mouth, why would he change his mind at the last minute? And did the thing succeed or not?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a maid's voice outside the door:
"Madam, the second lady is here to pay her respects to you."
It really means Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
The old lady raised her hand to signal, and the three of them quickly tidied their appearance. Then, Mu Lianzhi came in, supported by a maid. She looked haggard and a little sick.
After a simple greeting, Mu Lianzhi found a seat a little distance away from the main seat and sat down.
"Why are you here? What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
This time, the old lady took the initiative to speak with concern, and looked at her inquiringly without blinking.
Who could know better than her what happened that day?
Blinking his eyelids and rubbing his temples, Mu Lianzhi paused and replied half a beat late:
"Thank you for your concern, mother. I don't know if I was too tired from preparing for the wedding a few days ago or if I caught a cold accidentally, but I've been feeling dizzy and a little unclear these past few days. Apart from feeling sleepy, there's nothing else wrong."
"He said he had consulted a doctor and it was nothing serious."
"I made my mother worried."
"I just woke up today and heard that my little sister came back from the back door. I also heard some rumors, so I came to take a look."
Without giving the two people time to respond, Mu Lianzhi started to curse:
"I don't know which wicked person spread rumors and made such a fuss. My husband is not dead, how could I do such a shameless thing? And he is a beggar and a thief. What do you think of the doctor's mansion?"
"How can someone who is so dirty and smelly that he can kill someone even if he's more than ten meters away have such rotten flesh that he still has such thoughts?"
"You really don't even think about what you are saying."
"People's words are scary. To insult the reputation of a married woman with red mouth and white teeth, isn't that just forcing her to die?"
"The people who did this should also have a taste of the same bitterness. God will punish those who have lost their conscience sooner or later. Mother, am I right?"
"Little sister, don't take it to heart..."
Mu Lianzhi's saliva flew everywhere, and Ling Yuyao felt a chill down her spine. The old lady was trembling all over, and she was so angry that she gasped:
"You, what are you talking about?"
Isn't this cursing them to their faces?
She already felt that something was fishy, and she was heartbroken by her daughter's misfortune. She made the current situation sound like retribution, and she would be lying if she said she didn't have any doubts in her heart.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? Did I say something wrong? I was just speaking up for my younger sister. If you ask me, I think it would be too easy to just curse them to suffer the consequences for their evil intentions."
"shut up."
She slammed the table hard, and the old lady felt a lump in her heart again. After all, the truth cannot be hidden, and she was afraid that she would continue to talk, so she said:
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want? Yuyao was accompanying her son-in-law to socialize and meet guests, and she accidentally went too far and caused such a misunderstanding. Aren't you rubbing salt into her wounds by saying this?"
"what?"
After a scream, Mu Lianzhi looked annoyed, as if she had realized something belatedly. She stood up and bowed slightly:
"I see. No wonder there are rumors like that. Those who only know half the story are really heartless."
"Fortunately, my uncle knows about it, so there is nothing to worry about."
"In that case, don't be sad, little sister, so that mother won't worry about you and hurt her body."
"Speaking of which, you are also the mother of the family. Mother always taught us that women should obey their husbands after marriage and share the glory of the husband. Especially as the principal wife, it is natural for you to endure and make sacrifices for your husband's family. I'm sure that in the future, the whole family will remember your kindness and be grateful to you."
"The innocent are innocent. Since the son-in-law has come to you, he must trust you and will not blame you. Others have their mouths, but you have to live your own life. In the future, this kind of thing may become commonplace."
"Little sister, you need to be more open-minded and just think positively."
In the past, they all worked together to "comfort" the original owner. Now the tide has turned against them. They just have to bear it.
Hearing this, Ling Yuyao couldn't control her tears again. The old lady's face changed several times, but she was speechless and couldn't express her pain.
……
At this time, in Shi'an Courtyard, Jiang had just asked someone to verify the news outside and was about to go to Fude Courtyard to take a look. As soon as she went out, she saw Ling Feier coming back with a depressed look.
"Fei'er? Why are you back again?"
It is not a good sign for a newly married daughter to frequently return to her parents' home.
"Mother~"
Throwing herself into her arms, Ling Feier couldn't help wiping away her tears.
When Jiang heard her say that her son-in-law seemed to have become a different person after the return banquet and seemed to be indifferent to her, and it was even worse in the past two days. He even pushed her impatiently this morning, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mother, do you think I'm too sensitive? He was fine before, but this morning I asked him why he didn't come home last night. He looked disgusted and told me to take care of myself and not go out to embarrass him."
"He's never been this mean to me."
"Mother, do you think he is angry with me because of my aunt?"
