Chapter 173
Mrs. Yu looked at her daughter who was wearing rain, and felt her heart was as if she was being slashed.
She turned to look at Mrs. Xiao, "Old sister, Pei Xin's words are not unreasonable. Even if she is unforgivable, the child is innocent. An An and Shu'er are also descendants of the Xiao family. If they have stains on their backs, they will never be able to raise their heads in their lives. Wouldn't it be the face of the Xiao family? You are a lot of lords, so let her go this time. She has learned a lesson this time and I think she will not commit it again in the future..."
"I thought so before. She was always my daughter-in-law in the Xiao family. Even for two children, she should not be punished too much." Mrs. Xiao interrupted her again, "I thought she was not bad by nature and could always be improved. But my tolerance has caused her to become more severe. If there is a little discomfort, she will be asked to go back to her parents' home to complain. You are also a man of age. Always running around for your daughter like this will also cause criticism from others. Do you think this is the case?"
Old Mrs. Yu's throat was blocked.
She figured it out that the Xiao family really wouldn't give up easily this time.
Mrs. Yu was silent for a while, and when she looked up again, her expression had returned to indifference, "So, the old sister doesn't care about her any affection, and she has to divorce her wife?"
"Mother!"
The third lady was panicked and cried and begged: "No, I can't be retired, no, I am a member of the Xiao family. If I am retired, I can only die, mother..."
Old Mrs. Yu touched her daughter's head, and her old face was filled with sadness.
"I want to save you too. I think you and your son-in-law and his wife have been together for many years. If you don't talk about anything else, you always have a relationship. But I don't think that this couple's relationship is still not as good as father-son. Now you have committed a big mistake. The Xiao family is afraid of tolerating the traitor, and they have a rift from sister-in-law. I dare not take you home again..."
Her eyes were full of sadness, "My miserable son has loved me so much since I was a child. He grew up holding it like an eyeball, but now he is forced to death. He is useless for his mother, and he cannot save you from water and fire, and he also needs a white-haired man to send a black-haired man. I think it was because I committed a sin in my previous life that he repaid him..."
Is this a bitter scene? Every sentence is hidden in the cotton, saying that the Xiao family is ruthless and unrighteous, and that as a concubine's son, he will force his wife to death!
The Xiao family changed their faces.
"Don't cry here, old lady."
Xiao Shi's eyes were already very cold, "This world is not weak, I am right. If you feel wronged, you can beat the drum to report the imperial case, even if your Majesty personally sentenced me, my Xiao family will not be afraid. As for the face..." He smiled and said indifferently: "The old lady is not afraid, but my Xiao family is not afraid. There are always right and wrong in this world. Although most people in the world are ignorant, there are still people who understand it. If the right and wrong are discussed, some people will comment on it. By then, the face of the Yu family will be lost, but it will not be the sin of my Xiao family."
"you--"
Mrs. Yu was exposed by him without any hesitation, and her face turned pale with anger.
This uncle is really amazing. She dared not beat any drums to complain about such a lawsuit. Not to mention that the current queen is Xiao Shi's elder sister, even if she is an irrelevant person, she will not be able to face her daughter who is already injustice.
Moreover, once such a thing is promoted, the daughter will be completely destroyed in this life and the Yu family will be implicated. As for the Xiao family, they are originally royal relatives and have taken advantage of it. In this case, the Xiao family became a victim. What criticism can they face?
Can't I really protect my daughter today?
Mrs. Yu was both frightened and anxious, and even more heartbroken. She had been favored by her eldest daughter since she was a child. She married into the Xiao Mansion, but was seriously guilty of such a crime.
Suddenly, her mind was filled with inspiration and she said, "The old sister just said that my daughter was greedy for me. Since the death of the mother of the mansion, the uncle has not re-established for many years. The mother of the mansion is all hosted by a young girl. After six years, it was revealed that she has gained her personal pockets. I think it must be that the mother of the mansion is wise and wise."
Xiao Shi's eyes were as cold as frost, "Is Mrs. Yu trying to frame Guan Zhujing for no reason?"
Mrs. Yu slowly said, "Old body is just new and there are questions. Why should the uncle be angry? Could it be that Mrs. Zun is in a loss, so..."
"Why should I feel guilty when my mother stands upright?"
A voice came from outside, covering up the maid's singing.
Everyone looked over and saw a girl in pink dress slowly approaching. Her face was beautiful, but there was a layer of frost hidden between her eyebrows, which was daunting.
It's Ji Wan.
She walked in and greeted Mrs. Xiao and her stepfather and third uncle first.
"Granddaughter pays me a favor to my grandmother, father and third uncle."
Mrs. Xiao's face was gentle, "Why are you here?"
Ji Wan said: "The granddaughter knows that he shouldn't listen to the right and wrong of his elders, but his grandmother asked someone to get the account book before. This matter is related to the granddaughter. I may misunderstand those who don't know the matter, so I will explain my doubts."
Mrs. Xiao nodded and said, "Sit down."
Mrs. Yu knew her identity and smiled and said, "This is Miss Wan? You just told me about the account book, somehow?"
She was an elder, and Ji Wan still bowed her knees and said, "My aunt did fake accounts, it was not my mother who found out, it was me."
"What?"
The person who spoke was Master Yu. He looked at Ji Wan up and down, and said unbelievably: "It's you?"
"right."
Ji Wan stood there with neither humility nor arrogantness, "At that time, my mother took over the salary. When the accounts were reconciled, I happened to be on the side and found the tricks. Then I reported to my grandmother and thoroughly investigated it. The fake accounts made by the third aunt were still there, and the managers of each hospital could also be summoned. If Mrs. Yu has any questions, you can tell at a glance."
Mrs. Yu looked at her and said slowly: "Miss Wan, you are a junior, and you are a regular discussion. You shouldn't be here. Not only did you knowingly commit it, but you are also so aggressive towards your elders. Is your mother teaching you this way on weekdays?"
"My tutor in Xiao's house will not worry about Mrs. Yu."
How could Xiao Shi let his stepdaughter be wronged?
"The character of Zhujing is not determined by Mrs. Yu in just a few words. Awan is a junior, but she is the second-rank county lord in person, with a rank in her own court. What's wrong with her mother in her inner courtyard? As an elder, Mrs. Yu, as a senior, has made things difficult for her younger generation in the main hall of my Xiao family, and has lost her demeanor."
"Don't bully people too much."
Seeing Xiao Shi humiliated his mother so much, Master Yu ignored his wife's obstruction and immediately spoke in a deep voice.
"You Yu family mobilized a large number of troops to interfere in the affairs of my Xiao family's inner residence. My mother never asked her questions and explained them clearly one by one. However, Lord Yu has been confronting her tit-for-tat and making things difficult for her. Now she is bullying her younger generations with her power. Who is too bullying?"
The title of the uncle is not called in vain, nor is it the commander of the imperial camp in vain.
Xiao Shi’s temper is true, and protecting his shortcomings is true. What is the Yu family? He raises a greedy and cruel daughter, and he is still embarrassed to be domineering in the Xiao family. Who gives them the face?
"you--"
"No need to say more."
Mr. Xiao San interrupted Master Yu coldly and said, "At this point, the mother-in-law should know who is right and who is wrong. Her personal morality is a disadvantage, she is not kind to her mother, is unfilial to her daughter-in-law, and is not upright to her wife. This is a firm fact. Will the mother-in-law still blindly favor and cover up the right and wrong without distinguishing between right and wrong?"
"I…"
Mrs. Yu's heart was so hot that it was so hot that she could not wash away her daughter's sins. Today, she was originally accused of being punished, but she ended up with such a result, which was unexpected.
"No matter what, Pei Xin is always your wife." She had to show weakness. "Good child, you don't want to watch her die, right? And An An and Shu'er, they are both your legitimate children. No matter how much you cherish Brother Wei, you can't favor one or the other. I know you are a generous child, so do you forgive her this time? She will change it in the future..."
As she said that, she pushed her daughter.
The third lady understood and walked to Mr. Xiao and begged, "Master, I really know my mistake. I will definitely change my past mistakes in the future. I will regard Brother Wei as a parent-child and take good care of him. I will never be jealous anymore. If you want to accept a few, I will never be dissatisfied with it. Master, can you forgive me? Master..."
“It’s too late.”
Mr. Xiao San looked at his wife who was crying and felt pain, sad and helpless, "I will not give up on you when you have a husband and wife. Tomorrow you will move to your hometown in Luoyang to copy scriptures and pray for blessings to redeem your past sins. I will tell the public that you are going to recuperate. An Ge'er and Shu Jie'er have mother-raising and teachings, and will be upright in the future and will not be stained by you. If you truly repent, you may be able to return to your home in the future. In this way, it will be a final relationship between our husband and wife."
The third lady slowly opened her eyes wide, "You want to drive me away?"
Then she raised her voice and said sharply: "You want to keep me for the rest of my life? Xiao Rang, how can you be so heartless? I married you at the age of fifteen, and I have given birth to children for you for a full twelve years, and I have suffered all the grievances. You want to expel me. If you take my children, you will be a father in vain!"
"child…"
When Mrs. Yu heard that her daughter would not be relieved, she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what Mr. Xiao said later, her face changed again. Seeing that her daughter was crazy and mean, she quickly spoke, to stop her daughter from continuing to say what she shouldn't say, and to also want to say a request for her daughter.
The son-in-law is soft-hearted and can not only think about the relationship between husband and wife, but also may also forgive his daughter.
Who knew that Mr. Xiao was really determined this time. Before she could finish her words, she said, "This is my biggest concession. If my mother-in-law is dissatisfied, I have to write a divorce letter. I can also say that she suddenly suffered from a serious illness and did not want to affect her children, so she asked herself to leave the court. In this way, she would not implicate An Ge'er and Shujie'er."
This is a threat, a naked threat!
Old Mrs. Yu staggered back a few steps, her face as if it were dirt.
"Xiao Rang--"
The third lady's sharp roar failed to make Mr. Xiao feel soft, "You have gone to Luoyang, but you are still the mother of An Ge'er and Shu Jie'er, and still my legitimate wife. If you really think about your two children, you will pray and recite scriptures for your two children in the second half of your life. Every year from now on, I will ask An Ge'er and Shu Jie'er to see you until Sister Shu gets married. The relationship between us and our husbands is over, so take care of each other in the future."
