Chapter 69: Mommy Bei recalls the past
Mama Bei's prowess is well-known in the Duke's Mansion.
Although she did not have the habit of beating or scolding her servants, the maids in the garden still respected and feared her.
At this moment, being scolded by her with sharp words, Qingzhao and Yingshui dared not to say anything.
Xiao Bi has always been kind to the people around her, not to mention that what happened today has nothing to do with the maids, how could she bear to bring them down.
She held Bei's mother's arm with her uninjured hand: "Good mother, I didn't control my emotions and that's why I ended up like this. Please give them a break."
Bei's mother said coldly: "Don't come here and Xini. No matter what the reason is, if the master is hurt, it is the servant's biggest fault. Otherwise, why take them out?"
"Mom——" Xiao Bi shook her arm and winked at the two maids, signaling them to leave quickly.
Wherever Qingzhao and Yingshui dared to move, they stood straighter and straighter.
Mother Bei poked Xiao Bi on the forehead: "Let me tell you something good!"
After that, he said to the two maids: "Go down and reflect on yourself. The princess's martial arts skills are not a reason for your carelessness. You must be more vigilant in the future and don't make the same mistake again."
Qingzhao and Yingshui quickly expressed their opinions: "Yes, slaves must be more careful in the future."
After the two maids retreated, Bei's mother said: "You can go to a flower-viewing party and get yourself into this. If you don't know, you'd think you're going to fight!"
Xiao Bi said: "Fighting is much more enjoyable than this. The most annoying thing is these scheming women. I still feel sick."
Bei's mother said: "No matter how annoying or disgusting you are, don't take it out on yourself. I'd rather you slap someone on someone else. Even if it kills someone, it's better than hurting yourself."
"What kind of hero does he think he is when he hits a woman?"
Bei's mother was amused: "Do you really think of yourself as a man, and why do you still care about her?"
Xiao Bi said with a bitter face: "I am regretting it now, so please don't make fun of me."
"Then tell me honestly, which girl is it that is so indifferent and tricks you so much?"
Xiao Bi was really convinced.
I really grew up drinking mother Bei's milk, even my temper is exactly the same.
Regardless of the situation, vent your anger first, and then get to the bottom of it after your anger has subsided.
Xiao Bi had no intention of hiding what happened today.
She had already planned everything on the way back home.
Since my hand is already injured, I can't waste this opportunity.
Among those who knew the truth back then, Mama Bei was undoubtedly the best breakthrough point.
It's not that her tone is lax, it's that her stance is different.
In addition, she brought her up single-handedly, so she is not much different from her own mother.
Mothers always have a soft heart when facing their children. If you give them some coaxing, you might be able to find out the truth.
She leaned against Bei's mother and recounted what happened in Cui Lang Yuan today.
Hearing that this incident was related to the Xin family, Bei's mother immediately became angry.
"Aren't the Xin family members still in Donglai County? When did they come back?"
"Miss Zhao said she would be back after the new year."
"I feel restless as soon as I come back. I even want to cause trouble to the girls who are enjoying the flower viewing party.
You don’t even have to look at what kind of stuff they have in their house, how dare they get on top of you!”
Xiao Bi pouted and said, "Of course I'm not happy about being grabbed by them, but if I calm down and think about it, they don't seem to have done anything wrong.
After all, the second wife is the wife that my father is marrying..."
"Bah!" Bei's mother spat fiercely: "This family is a promiscuous family. Apart from knowing how to seduce men, what else can they do?"
Xiao Bi didn't expect Bei's mother to be so fierce.
She would never let herself hear words like "seduce a man" in the past.
Mother Bei rolled her eyes at her: "Now that you are older and you often run around outside, don't tell me that you can't even hear such words."
Xiao Bi swallowed: "Now that I am old and running around, please tell me what happened back then."
Mother Bei said: "I have always lived in Dongjun, and I didn't go to the Duke's Mansion until the first lady gave birth.
How can I know what happened in the past? What do you want me to say?"
Xiao Bi walked into her broad and warm arms: "Mom, I'm asking about Xin Su and his father. This happened only after you came to the Duke's Mansion. How could you not be clear about it?"
Bei's mother choked. She didn't pay attention to what she said just now, but Xiaojiu caught her.
"Good mother, the Xin family has returned to Beijing, and their eldest daughter has entered the palace again.
From now on, I will never see them again, if you don’t let me know anything, won’t you feel bad if I suffer another loss?”
Mother Bei sighed and gently stroked her face with her rough hands, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Xiao Jiu, do you think it's strange? Although Xin Su comes from a humble background, she is the legitimate wife of the Duke of the country after all. Why do people in the mansion reject her like that?
And as her husband, why does the Duke never stand up for her?"
Xiao Bi said: "I asked my third aunt before, and she said it's because everyone misses my mother too much."
"Xiaojiu is the smartest child and will definitely not believe such words."
"So what if you don't believe me? The elders in my family love me the most. They concealed the truth because they were afraid that I would be hurt. How could I be so ignorant?"
"Your mother is too kind to people, and no one can accept another woman as the first lady of the house, that's for sure.
But the Duke was only in his early thirties at that time, so there was nothing wrong with marrying another wife.
People in our house know that if Na Xinsu was from a humble background, no one would reject her.
But the things she did were so disgusting and hurtful!"
Xiao Bi took out the handkerchief and wiped her eyes: "Mom, please tell me all these things. I promise not to act impulsively."
Mother Bei said: "Mom didn't lie to you just now. I arrived at the Duke's Mansion late, and I only know a little bit about many things.
Since you insist on asking, I will tell you everything I know."
Xiao Bi nodded hurriedly.
Bei's mother said: "Xin Su married into the Duke's mansion after you turned one year old, when she was sixteen.
But few people know that as early as two years ago, when she was fourteen years old, she hooked up with the Duke of Guo."
Xiao Bi felt her stomach churn.
This time it's not because of Xin Su, but because of her father.
Not to mention whether the father is worthy of the mother, after all, he is not a dedicated and affectionate man to begin with, otherwise there would be no third sister.
But when Xin Su was fourteen, his aunt and fifth brother were only one year old, and everyone in the family had not yet recovered from the painful blow of losing their fourth uncle and third uncle.
As the eldest nephew and eldest brother, his father still has the heart to have a romantic affair outside the house?
