"You! Su Yujiao!!! You actually dare to make me your concubine?!" Madam Zhu's face turned ashen, and her voice suddenly rose eight octaves, as if she had heard something unbelievable.

"..."

Su Yujiao was speechless. What kind of expression and reaction was that?

Is this shocking?

She takes it for granted that others should become her concubines, but when others ask her to become their concubines, she acts as if it is a great disgrace!

"What? You can't go?"

"You, as his wife, can't go, but I, his sister-in-law, have to go?"

Are you out of your mind?

Madam Zhu was speechless with anger. She wanted to retort but didn't know how, since she was really in the wrong.

Madam Zhu stood up abruptly, pointing angrily at Su Yujiao: "I don't care, you have to go whether you want to or not. This family won't tolerate your wild behavior."

"Men, tie her up and take her straight to the Marquis's residence," Old Madam Zhu ordered.

The women of the first wife's family were kept outside the door and couldn't get in, unaware of what was happening inside, while the women of the second wife's family watched coldly from the sidelines.

The two young ladies from the second wife were especially gloating. This slut even wanted them to be her concubines; this was the consequence of offending them.

Lu Juhua said to her younger sister, "Ninth Sister, doesn't Fifth Brother still have that kind of medicine in his room? Go and get it."

Lu Meihua was taken aback, a look of confusion flashing in her eyes. For a moment, she didn't know what kind of medicine her eighth sister was talking about.

"Oh, it's one of those shady drugs."

"We'll feed that bitch some later. Who told her to have such ill intentions and try to harm us?"

Lu Meihua's eyes lit up, and she nodded and left, blushing.

Su Yujiao swept her gaze fiercely over everyone. The second branch of the family really didn't treat her like a human being, doing whatever they wanted.

So before the other party could make a move, she took the initiative, rushed forward a few steps, and pressed a sharp piece of broken porcelain against Old Zhu's neck.

"If you don't want to die, tell them to get out of the way." The woman's gaze was sharp, and she showed no mercy.

She only needs to wait for Xiao Tao to bring reinforcements to save her.

The people from the second branch of the family were terrified. Old Madam Zhu screamed and her face turned pale.

No one expected that this usually gentle woman would be driven to such a desperate act.

"Su, how dare you! Release your grandmother at once!"

"Ms. Su, don't get agitated. Let's talk this out. Put the person down first."

The second branch of the family was in complete chaos, with some cursing and others trying to appease her, all extremely anxious, fearing that Su Yujiao would really hurt Old Madam Zhu.

The wives of the second wife were also extremely worried. It wasn't that they had much affection for their mother-in-law, but that if she died, the second wife would no longer be able to continue to leech off the first wife.

My father-in-law is a man who doesn't care about anything and wouldn't even pick up a fallen oil bottle.

The second wife's success today is entirely due to her mother-in-law's help.

If the mother-in-law dies and the father-in-law is just a figurehead, the eldest son's wife will be the first to step forward and divide the family property.

In fact, this wasn't the first or second time that the eldest son's wife had proposed dividing the family property; each time, it was only after Old Madam Zhu went on a hunger strike that the proposal was finally put to rest.

Zhu herself knew very well that this family absolutely could not be divided. Once the family was divided, the second branch would be nothing and might even have to go back to the countryside to farm.

Therefore, the second wife's family wished that Old Madam Zhu could live a long and healthy life!

Seeing the panicked expressions on everyone's faces, Su Yujiao smiled sarcastically.

So they can be afraid too. It's true what they say, only the one who gets cut by the knife knows the pain.

Bang!

A hidden weapon flew out of nowhere and hit Su Yujiao's hand hard, knocking the porcelain shards out of her hand.

The servants from the second branch of the family seized the opportunity and pounced on the man, subduing him in an instant.

With Old Zhu Shi rescued, everyone in the second branch of the family breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Zhu was furious and, like a shrew, started tearing and ripping at Su Yujiao.

"You bitch, how dare you threaten me? I'll beat you to death!"

"Shameless little whore, rotten-hearted bitch."

Su Yujiao was held down tightly by several servants and old women, and had no power to fight back.

Lu Juhua took the opportunity to force-feed the aphrodisiac, and then pretended to comfort Old Zhu.

"Grandmother, don't be angry with her. We should hurry up and tie her up and send her over. Rescuing Fifth Brother is the most important thing."

"Yes, yes, hurry up and tie her up." When she mentioned her grandson, Old Zhu's face became full of affection.

“Gag her and carry her out the back door.”

Su Yujiao couldn't break free and could only hope that Xiao Tao would come to her rescue.

What she didn't know was that, in order to ensure everything went smoothly, Chen Yunniang specifically reminded Chen Yaozu to tell Wang Heng to keep an eye on Xiao Tao.

She knew Xiao Tao's loyalty to Su Yujiao, which was to prevent her from seeking help.

Therefore, Xiao Tao was kidnapped halfway and didn't even get to see Imperial Censor Liu.

Su Yujiao was carried to the Marquis's residence, and she already felt unwell all over.

There's something wrong with that cup of tea!

What a despicable woman! Just as the upper beam is crooked, so too is the lower beam; the second wife and her entire family are wicked.

Even a young girl who had just come of age was so vicious, actually giving her aphrodisiacs.

The sedan chair finally stopped in the backyard of the Marquis's mansion. She was roughly pulled out and pushed around, stumbling and staggering all the way.

Su Yujiao was extremely anxious. Her body was becoming increasingly unwell. In addition to the unbearable heat and discomfort, she felt that she was gradually losing consciousness.

what to do?

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye. Su Yujiao turned around abruptly and exclaimed in surprise, "Yaozu, it really is you!"

"Cousin, save me!"

Chen Yaozu was talking to someone when he heard someone call his name, and he couldn't help but turn around to look.

When he saw Su Yujiao's surprised and pleading eyes, a lewd glint flashed in his eyes.

His cousin is getting prettier and prettier, but she's not very bright.

She's been sold out and she's even helping him count the money; she actually expects him to come and rescue her.

"Go and inform the general that the person has been delivered."

"I'll go talk to her for a bit first, so she'll behave herself later."

The men accompanying him, seeing Su Yujiao's figure accentuated by the bindings, all grinned lewdly.

Su Yujiao felt both nervous and uneasy as she watched Chen Yaozu approach with ill intentions.

She knew, of course, that Chen Yaozu was not a good person, and that his presence here at this moment was highly suspicious.

She didn't expect Chen Yaozu to save her at all, but Chen Yaozu was simple-minded, and if used correctly, he might have a chance to be saved.

No matter what the final outcome, she will not give up this only hope.

Chen Yaozu walked closer, his gaze sweeping over her from head to toe, finally settling on her chest. He lewdly remarked, "My cousin is indeed all looks and no brains."

"Can't you tell? I'm in cahoots with General Wang."

"The general plotted against Lu Youcai, all for your sake."

"Doesn't Lu Ziqian look down on the general? Once you become the general's concubine, see how the general will trample his face into the ground."

Chen Yaozu said smugly, "But you've come to the right person. Once the general is tired of you, I'll beg him to spare your life."

"You'll come with me then. Grandpa won't mind if you're dirty. As long as you serve Grandpa well, you'll have a good life."
