Chapter 469 He Yin is a liar

The old lady's gaze swept over everyone present, her eyes filled with a hint of mockery.

He disagreed with the idea of ​​Second Master Gu marrying this daughter-in-law from the beginning, and sure enough, after only a few days of marriage, such a scandal has occurred.

The old lady always valued family traditions, and when she learned that He Yin had actually been married to someone else before and had even managed to trick them into coming to their Marquis's mansion, she was completely distraught.

"I don't understand what my mother means by that."

Even now, He Yin still refuses to admit that she knows anyone else present. She knows what kind of impact it would have on her if she admitted to being married before, so she will not give in until the very last moment.

Looking back at the others, He Yin asked with a puzzled expression, "Everyone? Could we possibly know each other before?"

"Miss He, you really have a short memory. You were calling me 'Mother' before, but now that you've changed your in-laws, you don't recognize your real mother-in-law?"

The person who spoke was an elderly woman who appeared to be around fifty years old. Although her clothes were not particularly fancy, they were still quite appropriate and dignified.

"Yes, it's true that she doesn't recognize her in-laws after changing mothers-in-law. Just a few months ago, I remember some people were still making rules in front of their sister-in-law, and now they're already daughters-in-law in someone else's family. It's really surprising."

The other woman looked at He Yin with sarcasm as she spoke, completely disregarding her.

"What are you saying, ladies? What do you mean by 'mother-in-law' and 'family of husbands'? My mother-in-law is the old lady of the Marquis of Yi'an's mansion, and my family of husbands are the Marquis and his wife of the Marquis of Yi'an's mansion. Where did you people come from, daring to come to the Marquis's mansion and slander me like this?"

As He Yin spoke, she glared angrily at the people who had spoken, as if these people had come from the very beginning to ruin their reputation.

The second woman to speak, seeing that He Yin actually said they were there to slander her, immediately turned to a young man behind her and said, "Brother, what are you still standing there for! Your own wife doesn't even recognize you anymore, and you're still hiding in the back?"

"I, I, what should I say?"

The man who was called looked flustered, and his timid and hesitant manner clearly showed that at home, he was the kind of person who would never dare to contradict his parents.

"What are you saying? Just say she's your wife. What else can you say? Don't you know your own wife? Do you need someone else to look after her for you?"

The woman, who called herself Granny He Yin, couldn't help but shout angrily when she saw her son's hopeless state.

Upon hearing his mother's words, the man pondered for a moment before looking at He Yin and slowly saying, "She is indeed my wife. We got married two years ago, but we just haven't had children yet."

Although the man's words were somewhat cowardly, his pronunciation was still fairly clear.

Upon hearing this, the old lady couldn't help but snort coldly, "He Yin, what else do you have to say?"

The old lady disliked He Yin to begin with, and listening to their back-and-forth conversation had already reached her limit. Naturally, she was unwilling to listen to them continue.

He Yin naturally knew the old lady's attitude towards her, but in order to continue being the daughter-in-law of the Marquis's mansion, she naturally could not admit to having any connection with these people.

Turning to look at the old lady, He Yin immediately knelt down. "Mother, they are all here to frame your daughter-in-law. Your daughter-in-law has never done such a thing. You must believe your daughter-in-law. Your daughter-in-law really doesn't know these people."

He Yin tried to look at the old lady with her most sincere gaze, but the old lady was unwilling to look at her at all.

"You tell me what exactly happened?"

The old lady pointed to the stammering, somewhat timid man and told him to come forward and answer.

The man was terrified of his own mother and aunt, let alone the old lady of the Marquis's mansion who was deliberately putting on airs. The old lady's mere presence when she sat down made the man feel breathless.

"Reporting to Madam, the matter... the matter is actually like this."

The man recounted in detail how the two met, almost going so far as to describe the details of how they lived together. Only when he was almost finished did he mention the incident at his home where Madam He forcibly took He Yin away.

"So, you two are still husband and wife? It's just that Mrs. He took you away unilaterally?"

When the old lady first heard the report, she thought these people were He Yin's ex-husbands. But upon hearing this, she realized that the two of them were still married.

In this situation, those who know the truth will naturally say that He Yin married two husbands and behaved improperly. If those who don't know the truth accuse Second Master Gu of forcibly taking another man's wife, wouldn't the Marquis's reputation be ruined?

The old lady turned around and glared at He Yin at the thought of this possibility.

"You're still not going to tell the truth, are you?"

He Yin had tried to stop the man from speaking, but after several attempts, the old lady didn't give him a chance to speak at all.

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, He Yin immediately stepped forward and cried to the old lady, "Mother, you don't know, He Yin also has her own difficulties."

As He Yin spoke, she turned and pointed to the middle-aged woman who claimed to be her mother-in-law: "It was all them. They abused me at home. I couldn't take it anymore, so I escaped from their house and returned to the He family."

"You're talking nonsense. When did we torture you? It's clearly your He family who, seeing our family's decline, want to climb the social ladder."

Although the man appeared timid and submissive, it didn't mean he was without temper. He couldn't tolerate watching his former wife slander his mother.

"Didn't you use vigilante justice against me? Put your hand on your heart and tell me, didn't you beat me a lot?"

As soon as He Yin heard the man speak, she immediately became like a rooster with its feathers standing on end, and retorted directly to him.

"I hit you because you're disobedient and always go against the elders in the family, right? Do you expect me to hit you instead?"

The man looked like a spoiled brat, the kind of person who is extremely obedient to his mother. But he frequently beats and scolds his wife, making him hardly a good match.

Gu Shuyan looked at the man and thought he was a handsome young man, but after hearing his words, she felt extremely disgusted.

"Ha, so that's your reason for hitting me? And when I didn't do anything wrong, you hit me less often?"

He Yin's words left the man speechless. He did indeed beat his wife often, and sometimes when he was upset by his mother, he would vent his anger on He Yin when he got back to the house. But so what?
