Chapter 801: Backfire
However, the second master became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and he still refused to let it go.
Fifty thousand silver coins! Not five thousand!
If it was five thousand, he might just let it go, as a harmonious family is the key to success.
Fifty thousand? Go to his house and everything will be fine!
The second master wondered if the eldest lady had threatened his wife, so he thought about it and decided to go find the old lady!
The couple doesn't dare to do anything, so it's okay for the old lady to come forward and seek justice, right?
In order to win the old lady's sympathy, the second master would of course add his own ideas.
So the old lady was furious!
The eldest brother's family is smart, the old lady knows that. Although she favors the second brother and his wife, she has never really shaken the power of the eldest brother's family.
The most important thing is that every time the old lady thinks about the fact that the second son doesn't even have a legitimate son, her heart becomes a little cold and she loses interest, so naturally she won't protect them with so much effort.
But this time, the eldest brother’s wife went too far!
He extorted 50,000 taels from the second wife right away. He has a huge appetite.
The old lady, with a cold face, ordered people to call the eldest lady and Xiaomi.
When Xiao Mi arrived, her expression changed and she secretly complained. She had never thought that her husband would do this behind her back.
The result is predictable. The eldest lady sighed helplessly and told the whole story slowly.
Le Zhengting murdered Jieyuan's wife. Without 50,000 taels, could Shao Jieyuan have completely uncovered the matter? The Xie family valued Shao Jieyuan very much and invited him to visit. The eldest son of the Xie family had a good relationship with Shao Jieyuan.
What kind of family is the Xie family? Who is Mr. Xie? Could their vision be wrong?
It is conceivable that Shao Jieyuan has a high chance of becoming a successful person in the future. Shouldn't Le Zhengting be severely punished for this?
Xiaomi was speechless and could only weakly utter words like “It wasn’t her, it was Li’er who instigated it”.
The old lady and the second master were both stunned!
The second master was so angry that he glared at Xiaomi: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? That's not what you told me. Look at the good daughter you taught her!"
The old lady also frowned: "Second daughter-in-law, you are wrong this time! How old are you? Why can't you speak clearly?"
We are all family, so there is no need to hide anything. Whatever Jiang Er dared to do, wasn't it all ordered by Le Zhengting? Everyone knows this.
Xiaomi was speechless. The fifty thousand taels of silver weighed on her so much that she could not breathe. She could not care about anything else and said with a sad face, "Ting'er was just confused for a moment. It was all the idea of the eldest lady of the Qiao family! The eldest lady of the Qiao family felt uncomfortable seeing her own concubine's sister making a name for herself, so she wanted to teach her a lesson, but she dragged Ting'er into it. I will teach Ting'er not to associate with her anymore, but mother, where do I have fifty thousand silver?"
The second master sneered: "If you don't have cash, you can gather it yourself. Anyway, I can't help you!"
After saying this, the second master turned away angrily.
Xiaomi was dumbfounded.
He, he is leaving now, what should I do?
"mother!"
Xiaomi looked at the old lady with tears in her eyes.
The old lady frowned, but she couldn't just ignore the matter. She also couldn't let her eldest daughter-in-law take money from the public treasury. She would never agree to it.
Besides, since Xiaomi did such a thing, she should be taught a lesson.
The eldest daughter of the Qiao family might really have had an affair with her younger sister, but that doesn't mean that there's no Le Zhengting involved. Maybe there's also Xiaomi's affair.
The old lady didn't say anything because she was giving face to Xiaomi and was too lazy to expose her in person.
It doesn’t mean that I don’t understand.
