Chapter 248: Complain to Chen Xiangxiu
"You're right. No one is stupid and has been taken advantage of. Even relatives and friends have to help each other to go far."
"Are you from the Shen family?" Du Wanwan looked down at Shen Feiyan, whose cheeks were swollen on the ground. "You want to slander me? And then make a big deal out of it? Make Ye Tingxiao dislike me? Break off the engagement with me and marry you?"
Shen Feiyan shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I didn't, I just can't stand you being so shameless with other men."
The young man of sixteen or seventeen was wrongly accused, and was so angry that he pointed at Shen Feiyan: “You, you, you are slandering me, Doctor Du didn’t pull any tugs with me.”
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and showed the boil to everyone.
"I was supposed to go to the People's Clinic today, but the clinic was busy and I was late. I happened to see Doctor Du strolling on the street, so I wanted to ask her to take a look. I didn't expect to be seen by you.
How could Doctor Du argue with me? I just asked her to help check whether the boil was ripe and whether the pus and blood could be drained. "
The people watching nearby waved their hands at the young man, "You don't need to explain, we all know. What kind of person is Dr. Du? Would he do such a rude thing to a little man like you in the street?"
"That's right, the prince is not handsome enough? Not wise and brave enough? It's obvious that Miss Shen has ulterior motives and wants to make trouble!"
"Didn't Doctor Du just tell us everything she was thinking? It's a pity that Miss Shen is so arrogant and thinks we are fools. Does she think that if she just yells like this, everyone will believe it?"
"No wonder the prince doesn't want Miss Shen. He is really brainless. If you want to slander someone, you should consider who you are slandering. Will anyone believe it if you say it?"
"Doctors have to be hands-on when seeing patients. Otherwise, do you think you can tell the symptoms just by looking at them? If you don't know this little bit of common sense, does that mean you are ignorant? Or are you stupid?"
Chen Feiyan originally wanted to play pitiful to gain sympathy, but she didn't expect to be scolded by everyone and scolded to the point of being completely humiliated.
I didn't expect that Du Wanwan's character was so good in the eyes of the people, and her image was so high. The plan to ruin Du Wanwan's reputation in the street and make her cousin dislike her didn't work at all, and she was slapped twice in the street, which was really not worth it.
For the sake of her future mother-in-law, Du Wanwan didn’t want to bother with a waste, so she kicked Shen Feiyan: “Get up, go back to the Shen family, and if you provoke me again, I will be rude to you.”
Shen Feiyan didn't dare to say anything more, she covered her face and got up, limping out of the crowd. Her maid huddled behind the crowd, and when she saw her, she quickly helped her to the carriage opposite.
Du Wanwan greeted everyone and walked home leisurely. Shen Feiyan's appearance did not cause any waves for her. Ye Tingxiao had told her about this.
That woman didn't have any special tricks, and she didn't bother to think about it. It was rare for her to go out for a walk, and she couldn't let a fly ruin her good mood.
Fly Shen Feiyan sat in the carriage with her eyes slightly narrowed. She didn't get any advantage from Du Wanwan, so she wanted to try her luck at the County Magistrate's Mansion.
After all, she was a member of the Shen family. Du Wanwan dared to attack her before she even married into the family. Isn't this embarrassing for her aunt? She wanted to cry in front of her aunt, to give Du Wanwan some eye drops, and to plant a thorn in her aunt's heart.
"Turn around and go to the county governor's mansion."
"yes!"
The driver agreed and quickly pulled the reins to change the direction of the horse.
The maid was puzzled and asked Shen Feiyan: "Miss! If we go to the county governor's mansion at this time, the aunt may not meet us."
"No, we will definitely meet this time."
Shen Feiyan touched her face which was swollen like a pig's head and sneered, but it only moved the broken corner of her mouth, causing her to gasp in pain and quickly put away the smile on her face.
Arriving at the county magistrate's mansion, looking at the tall mansion gate, Shen Feiyan thought about the scenes of herself entering and leaving freely in the past, and couldn't help but tears in her eyes.
She miscalculated in one move and lost everything.
When they arrived at the gate of the county magistrate's mansion, the gatekeeper stopped them. When he saw that the cousin's eyes were almost swollen from being beaten, he couldn't bear it and tried to persuade her.
"Miss Shen, you should go back! Madam Hou has already told you that she won't see you."
"No, please go and inform them that Du Wanwan beat me up. My aunt will definitely come to see me. Please!"
After saying this, he gave the maid a look, and the maid understood and gave the doorman a tael of silver: "Use this to buy some wine. Please go in and report!"
The concierge looked at the silver in his hand and warned them, "I can go in and report, but whether the lady lets you in or not is none of my business."
"Yes!" Shen Feiyan lowered her status and bowed to the doorman, "Please!"
After collecting the silver, the concierge said, "Wait for me."
He turned around and walked quickly inside. For the sake of the one or two taels of silver as a running fee, he went in reluctantly to report. Whether the lady saw him or not was none of his business.
Chen Xiangxiu and Xu were sewing and making new underwear for Pingyang Hou. For many years, all shoes and socks for Pingyang Hou were made by the two of them, and they never asked others to do it for them.
The nanny beside her came in and reported: "Madam! Shen Feiyan is here, saying that she was beaten by the prince's wife and she was crying pitifully."
"What?" Chen Xiangxiu put down the needle and thread in her hand, her face unhappy, "Let her in."
Xu advised from the side: "Madam, don't be angry. Doctor Du is a very sensible person. He would not hit someone for no reason. There must be some misunderstanding."
"I know. Wanwan is a very good person. I am just angry at Shen Feiyan. Why would she bother my Wanwan for no reason? She treats patients every day, and it is so tiring and hard for her to accumulate merits."
Hearing this, Xu felt relieved and smiled slightly, saying, "Madam is right. Although I have never met the Crown Prince's Consort, judging from her behavior and the praises from people all over Liang County, she is not a reckless person.
A doctor is kind-hearted and can't be so evil. How could Miss Shen force her to take action? This matter must be serious."
Chen Xiangxiu is now quite disappointed with her mother's family. In the past, she would defend her two brothers in front of Ye Zhenghai.
After all these years together, not only was Ye Zhenghai disappointed with her two brothers, but she was also disappointed. Her family had always only taken advantage of her and never thought of helping her share some of her worries.
The retired veterans of the farm were all the personal guards of the Marquis of Pingyang. They didn't know how to run a business, so they asked their two brothers to help out. If the Marquis asked, they would help. If he didn't, they would pretend they didn't know.
Later, her son took over and handed it over to the Du family. The farm was well managed and flourished. Her two elder brothers were jealous. The eldest brother came to her twice and asked to invest in the farm, but she refused both times.
Later, he said he wanted to get the right to operate Baitang in Liangjun City, but she refused. She was not so stupid as to destroy her son's business for her mother's family.
The eldest brother was better, but the second brother and his wife were simply ungrateful and could not be fed, even their daughter was like that. Why did he go and cause trouble for her Wanwan for no reason? Was he planning to break up the marriage between her son and daughter-in-law?
