Chapter 22: No one can take away the position of Crown Princess
"What are family rules?" Yu Youning asked curiously.
Marquis Yong'an did not answer, but urged the butler to go and invite him quickly.
Lin Ruoli lowered her head slightly, as if immersed in sadness, but in fact her eyes were full of happy smiles.
Please follow the family rules!
It would be best to kill Yu Youning directly!
The inner courtyard soon received news of the big commotion caused by the family law.
Soon, the Marquis's wife came with Lin Siqiong and Yu Tingwan.
As soon as they arrived, the housekeeper came over with a ruler.
This ruler is made of pure copper, looks golden and heavy.
If it hits your body, it will swell up immediately.
Marquis Yong'an held the ruler in his hand and ordered the butler, "Hold down Yu Youning. I will discipline her today!"
Yu Tingwan was startled and hurriedly ran towards Yu Youning, protecting Yu Youning behind him.
"Father, what did Youning do wrong to cause you to use the family law?"
Lin Siqiong didn't know what had happened, but she was happy to see Yu Youning being beaten.
Suppressing the smile in her heart, Lin Siqiong frowned slightly and said with a hint of worry, "Sister, I know you are eager to protect your daughter, but father will never use family rules casually. There must be a reason! You can't spoil her too much! After all, this is the capital, and you will offend the powerful if you are not careful.
Rather than letting Youning be taught a lesson by others in the future and suffer even greater losses, it is better to let her father discipline her now. After all, this is also good for her!"
Yong'an Hou nodded with satisfaction, "Si Qiong is indeed sensible and considerate. Listen to me, why don't you get out of the way!"
Yu Tingwan still stood there, holding Yu Youning firmly behind him, with no intention of moving away.
Her skin was very white and she looked very weak, but her expression and eyes were very firm at this moment.
"Father, I still don't know what happened. I won't let you use family rules against Youning like this."
Hearing Yu Tingwan's firm words, the Marquis of Yong'an grew even angrier. "How dare a little girl like Yu Youning disobey her elders? It turns out she learned this from you, her mother! You didn't raise her properly yourself, and now you're stopping me from teaching her. Do you want her to be looked down upon by the entire capital like you are?"
Every word that Yong'an Hou said turned into a sharp sword at this moment, ruthlessly piercing Yu Tingwan's heart.
Yu Tingwan ignored her sadness and loss and continued to look straight at Yong'an Hou, "Youning is not a naughty person. He would never do anything without reason."
"you!"
Marquis Yong'an raised his hand and pointed the ruler in his hand at Yu Tingwan. His eyes were bloodshot with anger and his expression looked even more ferocious.
"I'll ask you one last time, are you going to give in or not?"
Yu Tingwan was slender, but at this moment, she stood there straight and straight like a pine or cypress that blocked out the sun. "No."
"Good! Good! Good!" Yong'an Hou uttered three "good" words in a row, making everyone laugh. "Since you are so stubborn, I will teach you a lesson today too, so that you will know what it means to obey your father at home!"
As Marquis Yong'an spoke, he raised the ruler in his hand high, and was about to hit Yu Tingwan in the face.
Seeing this, the Marquis's wife was frightened and her face turned pale, with a very complicated expression, but she did not speak to stop it.
Lin Siqiong and Lin Ruoli both had burning eyes, their eyes flashing with excitement, their hands clenched into fists, wishing they could take over and hit others with the ruler themselves.
Marquis Yong'an's arm came down hard, and the ruler was about to hit Yu Tingwan's pretty cheek.
However, at this moment, Yu Tingwan raised his hand. His movements seemed slow, and his fingers were slender and weak, but he easily grasped the other end of the ruler.
The ruler was suddenly caught, which surprised Yong'an Hou a little, but then he was furious.
"How dare you still hold the ruler!" Yong'an Hou became even more angry, "Do you still want to fight with me, your father?"
Yu Tingwan's eyes were red, but her expression was firm. "Father came back and started shouting about war and killing, but he wouldn't tell us what happened. Since he looks down on us mother and daughter so much, we don't have to stay in the Marquis' Mansion and get in the way. I'll take Youning and leave!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Youning poked his head out from behind Yu Tingwan and nodded seriously, "Mom is right! We are not welcome here. Grandfather doesn't know right from wrong. Youning doesn't like this place. Youning doesn't want to stay here anymore!"
Without waiting for the Marquis of Yong'an to respond, Yu Tingwan looked at the Marquis' wife again, her eyes misty and her voice choked with sobs. "Mother, you are in good health and have children to take care of you. I am relieved. I will take Youning away now."
When the Marquis's wife heard this, her eyes instantly turned red and tears fell down. She trotted to Yu Tingwan and hugged her in her arms.
"Listen! My daughter! What are you talking about? This is your home, how can you leave? No, I won't allow it!"
The Marquis' wife cried as she spoke, and then looked at the Marquis of Yong'an, "My Lord, they have been living outside for so many years and haven't learned any rules. Isn't it normal for them to make mistakes? Why did it come to the point where I had to ask them to leave? This is my biological daughter, who I carried for ten months and gave birth to!"
Let them stay and forget about what happened today. I will teach them a lesson and it will never happen again, okay?"
Yong'an Hou turned his head aside and snorted coldly, "Who said we'd let them go? They may not be very capable, but they have a lot of temper!
Since you have begged me, I will let it go today. However, such a thing must not happen again in the future, or I will not let you off easily!"
Hearing the relief from the Marquis of Yong'an, his wife hurriedly shook Yu Tingwan's arm and said, "Tingwan, your father has forgiven you two. Why don't you thank him?"
Yu Tingwan lowered his head slightly and did not speak.
Her mother looked like she couldn't bear to leave her and Youning, but every word she said was derogatory. She didn't even ask what happened, but assumed it must be Youning's fault...
Seeing Yu Tingwan hanging her head and not saying anything, the Marquis's wife suddenly became anxious and her tears flowed even more violently.
"Tingwan, are you really that cruel? You want to abandon your parents and leave? Do you want your mother to kneel down in front of you before you stay?"
Yu Tingwan looked towards the Marquis's wife and saw that her face was red from crying and she seemed really sad. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart and nodded slowly.
"Okay, we won't leave."
The Marquis's wife finally smiled and wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief. "Okay, okay! I won't leave! Today, our family must have a good reunion dinner! Look at Youning's face, it's all red. If you want to take her back to wash and change clothes, someone will take you to the flower hall in a while."
"good."
Yu Tingwan agreed softly and took Yu Youning's hand and walked towards the yard where they lived.
Looking at the backs of the mother and daughter as they left, Lin Siqiong felt so angry that her teeth were itching, but she couldn't show it at all.
"Father, Mother." Lin Siqiong's expression remained calm. "I'll take Li'er back to change clothes first."
The Marquis's wife nodded and said, "Go ahead, don't miss lunch."
"yes!"
Lin Siqiong took Lin Ruoli away. After returning to Lin Ruoli's yard, she asked, "Li'er, what happened today?"
Lin Ruoli's face was tense, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison, and she coldly recounted everything that happened today.
The more Lin Siqiong listened, the more frightened she became. "How could this be? The mother and daughter are dressed like country folk. How could Yu Youning have a master? Why does she have such beautiful handwriting? And how does she have such extraordinary strength? Could it be that she was born with supernatural powers like Huo Qingchen?"
"I don't care who her master is, or whether she was born with supernatural powers, mother! You must find a way to drive them out of the mansion, no! Drive them out of the capital, and never let them come back!"
At the end of her speech, Lin Ruoli's voice became extremely sharp.
In other words, all the people in this courtyard are confidants, so there is no need to worry that they will spread the news after hearing it, otherwise the image created by Lin Ruoli will be ruined.
Lin Siqiong looked at Lin Ruoli with great heartache, held her in her arms, and gently patted Lin Ruoli's back.
"Don't worry, Li'er." Lin Siqiong's voice was gentle but ruthless, and she already had murderous intentions: "No one can take Li'er's position as Crown Princess. Mother will definitely find a way to kill Yu Youning."
