Chapter 258 Being Bullied

After Wu Junnian finished treating Chen Ge'er, he did not leave immediately.

Instead, he waited until Qiuying brought the snow water and personally boiled medicine for Chen Ge'er. He spent the whole afternoon observing Chen Ge'er's condition.

By the end of the afternoon, the first dose of medicine finally took effect.

Only then did Wu Junnian say goodbye and leave.

The Wen family kept Wu Junnian for dinner before releasing him. Wen Zhiyan and his third cousin Liang Qingyun personally escorted Wu Junnian out of the house.

Wen Li'er's worries finally settled down, and she remembered to ask Old Mrs. Yu.

"Grandmother, my third cousin said that when you were entering the capital, you collided with a carriage thirty miles outside the city. Both carriages almost overturned. Were you injured?"

As she spoke she began to look her grandmother's body up and down.

Old Mrs. Yu patted her hand and was about to reply, but Liang Qingning beat her to the punch.

Liang Qingning said indignantly: "Cousin, you don't know! At that time..."

"Sister Ning!" Old Mrs. Yu interrupted her.

But Liang Qingning was so angry at the moment. That person had caused Chen Ge'er to suffer so much, why didn't he let her speak? !

She ignored her grandmother's stern gaze and continued, "It was clearly the other party's carriage that had a mishap and crashed into the carriages of my second and third brothers and their wives. Both carriages nearly flipped over. Chen Ge'er was so scared that he kept crying. Instead of apologizing, they even forced us..."

"Sister Ning!" Old Mrs. Yu slammed the coffee table and shouted at her.

Judging from his appearance, he was obviously angry.

Liang Qingning met her grandmother's gaze, shrank back in fear, lowered her head and shut her mouth.

Wen Li'er became anxious.

"Grandma, what did they force you to do? Why didn't you let Cousin Qing Ning tell you? Did they bully you? Do you know who they are from?"

Old Mrs. Yu met her granddaughter's worried gaze and patted her hand.

"With so many of us, how could we be bullied? We just had a little argument, and the local people felt they were being rude, apologized, and left. Nothing happened."

When the other members of the Liang family heard their mother/grandmother say this, they all looked away and remained silent.

Liang Qingning almost crushed the handkerchief in her hand. She really wanted to tell the truth and ask her cousin, the Imperial Noble Consort, to vent Chen Ge'er's anger.

But she also knew that her grandmother was worried about causing trouble for the Wen family and her cousin. After all, the other party's carriage was so gorgeous that it was obvious that it came from a wealthy family.

Forget it, just be patient and everything will be fine.

Liang Qingning forced herself to hold back her breath, and the others quickly changed the subject and talked about Chen Ge'er's illness.

Wen Li'er is not a fool. Looking at the expressions of her grandmother and the others, she knows that they must have been bullied before even arriving in Beijing.

Her maternal grandparents were worried about causing trouble for her and her father, so they were reluctant to tell her.

She thought angrily in her heart, she must find out about this person!

If anyone dares to bully her maternal relatives, she must avenge them.

Wen Zhiyan thought so too, and he looked at his sister.

The two looked at each other and tacitly avoided the topic.

Chen Ge'er's condition was under control, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Wen Li'er arranged two palace maids to help her third cousin-in-law take care of Chen Ge'er at night, while she went to her parents' yard.

Wen Zhiyan was also there. Seeing her coming, he smiled at Liang Yuhe and said, "Mom, what did I say? My sister is really here, right?"

Liang Yuhe glared at him and pulled Wen Li'er to sit next to her.

"Li'er, why don't you rest at this time?"

Wen Li'er shook her head: "Mom, I can't sleep. I just want to know who the family was that hit my grandmother's carriage on the outskirts of the city, and what happened in the end."

After saying this, she looked at her father and brother.

Wen Tingkuan was about to tell the maid at the door to ask Sister Qingning to come, but Wen Lier asked Qingzhu to go and invite her in person.

Seeing the senior palace maid beside her cousin coming to call her over, Liang Qingning was extremely anxious.

My cousin would definitely ask her what happened in the suburbs.

But her grandmother didn't let her tell it. If she told her cousin, she would definitely be beaten to death by her grandmother!

She wanted to lie down on the bed and pretend to be sick, but Qingzhu had already seen her.

Helplessly, she could only follow Qingzhu reluctantly.

Seeing that they had come to her aunt and uncle's yard, Liang Qingning became even more anxious.

She felt a little regretful for a moment, thinking that she had spoken too quickly before!

When Liang Yuhe saw her niece, she waved to her and said, "Sister Ning, come here, aunt."

Liang Qingning walked over obediently, but didn't dare to look up.

Wen Li'er looked at her and asked directly, "Cousin Qing Ning, what did you say today about the other party crashing into your carriage and forcing you to do something?"

Liang Qingning shook her head fiercely: "Nothing, the other party apologized and left."

Wen Li'er stood up, held her face with both hands, and lifted her head up.

"Cousin, please don't hide it from us. Our family has been bullied by others, and I must seek justice! Otherwise, others will think that we, the Wen family, and I, the Imperial Concubine, are easy to bully!"

Wen Zhiyan also advised: "Fourth cousin, your cousin is right, just tell the truth, and leave the rest to us."

Liang Qingning bit her lower lip, and when she met their concerned gazes, her eyes instantly turned red.

As if she had made a great decision, she cried and complained, "Aunt and uncle, cousins, I have to say! They almost overturned our carriage, and not only did they not apologize, they also put the blame on us. We argued for a few words, and they forced us to kneel down and apologize!"

When Wen Li'er and the others heard this, their faces turned dark in an instant.

Liang Yuhe angrily asked, "Whose family are you from? Did you actually kneel down and apologize later?"

Liang Qingning wiped away a tear.

"We refused, but they brought a lot of guards and forced us all to kneel down. They even mocked us, calling us poor, peasants! My eldest, second, and third brothers stepped forward to argue, but they had the guards beat them up! Grandmother, worried about our brothers' safety, kowtowed three times to the man!"

Speaking of this, Liang Qingning thought of the scenes of that day and burst into tears.

When Wen Li'er heard this, her eyes turned red with anger.

"Keep talking!"

Liang Qingning sobbed, "That man...that man left only after seeing Grandma kowtow. My three brothers were all injured, and Grandma was worried that my uncle and aunt would find out and go after them, which would be a waste of time. So, she took us to stay in the suburbs for a few days until my brothers' injuries had healed before we went to Beijing."

Liang Yuhe then realized that she had calculated the day for her mother and brothers and sisters-in-law to arrive in Beijing, but it turned out to be a few days late.

My eldest brother said in the letter that the road was difficult to travel on snowy days.

It turned out that he was beaten!

Her mother is so old, but she actually kneels down and kowtows to others!

When Liang Yuhe thought about it, she was so heartbroken that she almost fainted. Wen Lier hurriedly supported her and helped her calm down.

Wen Tingkuan's face also darkened considerably. He asked in a deep voice, "Sister Ning, do you know who that person is?"

Under the feet of the emperor, there is such disregard for the law. He wants to see who has such great ability!

Liang Qingning shook her head: "I don't know, I just saw a Luo character on the other side's carriage."

Luo?

Wen Tingkuan and Wen Zhiyan both frowned and thought about which high-ranking officials in the capital were surnamed Luo.
