Chapter 262 There Will Always Be a Day When the Building Collapses

Liang Shangjiong's face turned green with anger.

The people of the Lu family are too arrogant!

He simply doesn't take the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion seriously.

"After beating someone up, you want to leave? Come on, stop them."

Wang Min straightened his back and shouted in a deep voice: "Stop!"

"We just heard some noise next door, and we were concerned about the safety of the children visiting your home, so we barged in without a care."

"Why did you, the Liang family, stop them from leaving? Did you do something wrong?"

"Since Lord Liang won't let us go, let's talk it out. Lan Xin, tell me what's going on."

Cao Lanxin was eloquent and quickly explained the matter clearly.

Wang Min laughed out of anger: "What a dirty-minded Liang family! Since they won't let us go, then we won't leave. Someone, go report to the police and say that someone here is up to something bad and is trying to take advantage of my innocence."

At this point, Liang Shangjiong no longer dared to be tough at all.

The incident happened suddenly and they haven't had time to clean up the mess yet. If the government really gets involved, they might be able to find some clues.

His originally angry face immediately turned into a smile: "Misunderstanding, all misunderstanding."

"Although we haven't seen each other for many years, Madam Hou should know that we would never do such a ridiculous and shameless thing."

"It must be a misunderstanding."

Wang Min's face was still as cold as a thousand-year-old ice: "It's hard to say. You can only know a person's face but not his heart. Who can tell what kind of evil hearts are hidden in your skin?"

Liang Shangjiong was choked by her words, and a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

But he still said in a friendly manner: "Just kidding, our two families have a deep friendship. It's really regrettable that today's incident has turned out like this."

"Why don't we both take a step back and call it a day."

Wang Min also knew that both parties present had their own constraints and this matter should not be publicized.

Sister Cao Lanxin is already engaged, and it would be inappropriate if rumors were spread.

Yuan Wanru said, "Other things are fine, but my cousins have suffered so much injustice in the Liang family, the Liang family should give them some money to calm them down."

"You are royal relatives. If you give less, it will not be worthy of your status. The four of them will each get 2,000 taels. As for me, I was frightened by Miss Liang's terrifying face just now. She even wanted to hit me. I can't give less. Just give me 3,000 taels."

"Master Liang, what I want is not much."

It’s not much. When the daughter of a seventh-rank official gets married, the dowry is sometimes less than two thousand taels. She asked for 11,000 taels right away and still had the nerve to say it wasn’t much.

Liang Yusong said angrily: "Why don't you go and rob it? You're dreaming!"

It's not that there is no money, but it can't be given away just like that.

Why?

As a result of today's incident, the Liang family suffered a great loss.

Yuan Wanru actually got the advantage and still acts like a good kid.

After hearing Yuan Wanru's tone just now, Cao Lanxin had some guesses.

Sure enough, given my cousin’s wife’s aspirations, she really wanted to extort money from the Liang family.

Lu Rong was the most excited. Two thousand taels, she had never seen so much silver before.

At this moment, she felt that Yuan Wanru's image was particularly tall, and her sister-in-law was really great.

Liang Shangjiong resisted the urge to kill, staring at Yuan Wanru coldly: "I advise you to stop while you are ahead, don't push your luck."

Yuan Wanru smiled innocently: "Have we gone too far?"

"Someone just shouted that the second young master Liang is already a eunuch. If this matter gets out, the dirty thoughts of your Liang family will be exposed."

"It's hard to say, Mr. Liang's marriage is going to fail."

Liang Zhi's elder brother Liang Zhong was engaged to the daughter of Prince Guangping and was going to get married next New Year.

Of course, this was Liang Zhong’s second wife, not his original wife.

Liang Zhong’s original wife has been dead for two years.

Prince Guangping was a clan relative, and his fief was in the richest area of the two lakes during the Dajing Dynasty. The previous Prince Guangping had a very good relationship with the late emperor and gave Prince Guangping many preferential treatments.

The Liang family attaches great importance to this marriage. Liang Zhong has already gone to his future father-in-law's house to give New Year gifts.

Upon hearing this, Liang Shangjiong looked at Yuan Wanru with his narrow eyes as if he was looking at a dead person.

Wang Min felt that there was something wrong with his eyes, so she took a step to the side to block his view.

"Master Liang, are you unwilling to give the silver?"

Liang Shangjiong retracted his malicious look and smiled kindly: "How could that be? Since the Lu family is short of money, we in the Liang family can't be stingy."

"Someone, go get the banknotes."

His smile seemed to carry something dirty, which made Wang Min very uncomfortable.

"Prince Lu really married a good wife who is shrewd and calculating. Madam Hou can rest easy from now on."

"However, I advise Madam Hou to be more careful, otherwise, you might get bitten back."

This method of sowing discord has absolutely no effect.

Wang Min held Yuan Wanru's hand and said affectionately, "Master Liang is right. This daughter-in-law is very much in my heart."

Liang Shangjiong said with a wry smile, "I hope Madam Hou can always think this way."

He looked at Yuan Wanru's bright face like a poisonous snake, and a thought flashed through his mind: Yuan was not easy to deal with, so he should get rid of her as soon as possible.

Yuan Wanru and the others took the silver and left without any reluctance.

Finally, the Liang family returned to peace.

Liang Nian had been paying attention to what was happening here. When he heard that Liang Zhi had been crippled, he laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.

"Good, good, very good."

His biological elder brother Liang Si, who was three months younger than Liang Zhi, was quick-witted and outstanding in every aspect, but he lost his life because of Liang Zhi's jealousy.

Their second branch has always lived under the shadow of the first branch, and their father has always been cowardly and dared not resist.

But Liang Nian couldn't stand these things.

His greatest wish is to overthrow the eldest branch of the Liang family and make them pay the price for the crimes they have committed.

It's a pity that there's not much he can do, and over the years, he hasn't had a better way to achieve this goal.

Now, he finally got this opportunity.

For some unknown reason, the first wife insisted on leaving the capital, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of.

People die for money and birds die for food. Liang Nian has accumulated some wealth over the years, so it is possible for him to bribe a few people.

Sometimes, just a few inconspicuous characters can play a crucial role.

He waited patiently for the day when the building would collapse.

At that time, he will kill Liang Zhi with his own hands.

-

After returning to the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Yuan Wanru picked and chose and told Wang Min some things about Liang Yusong.

As the mistress of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion, there are some things that she should know.

If she had said this before, Wang Min might not have believed it.

But what happened today was enough for her to see clearly what kind of person Liang Yusong was.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't allow Liang Yusong to come to my house again."

Yuan Wanru felt relieved after hearing these words.

"Wanru doesn't have to worry about mother, but mother will have to worry about the old lady."

Yuan Wanru did not reveal the matter of the poison.

Liang Yusong was distracted by Liang Zhi's affairs, which was a great thing for Lu Jiangnian.

Therefore, they must not be allowed to discover that Lu Jiangnian already knew about the poison.

A cornered dog will do something desperate. The Liang family is so despicable. Who knows what tricks they will use to deal with Lu Jiangnian.

We have to wait until she comes back from southern Xinjiang before we can reveal everything one by one.

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Wang Min, but when it comes to secrets, the less people know about them, the safer they are.
