Chapter 137 She would feel dirty even if she touched him

Seeing him turn around and leave, the old lady hurriedly stopped him.

She signaled to Mrs. Qian to dismiss the servants with her eyes, and went to Jiang Zhaorong's side, saying earnestly: "Zhaorong, listen to your mother, the root of this matter is still Xu's fault, you should be submissive to her, coax her to settle this matter first, and release Shi Wei. Whatever you want to do in the future, it's still up to you."

Jiang Zhaorong lowered his eyes and looked at her.

The old lady continued: "You should also consider taking another concubine. Look at whose family is as deserted as the prime minister's mansion? As the saying goes, more children means more blessings. You only have these children now, and their hearts are still with Xu. Your mother sees it and it hurts her heart."

The old lady shed a few tears when she was excited.

Jiang Zhaorong took a deep breath: "Enough, now the Prime Minister's Mansion is in such a mess, you don't think about how to solve it, but only want me to take a concubine?"

Startled by his sudden rebuke, the old lady pointed at him with a trembling finger: "Who is responsible for this mess? It's still that Xu. If she hadn't insisted on exposing the matter, how could Shi Wei be arrested? Although Shi Wei was wrong, those two people were fine, too. Why did they have to make such a fuss now!"

Jiang Zhaorong glanced at her, unwilling to waste words with her, turned around and left without saying anything.

When he reached the intersection, Jiang Zhaorong stopped and looked at Menghua Garden in front of him.

There was some truth in what the old lady said. In the final analysis, the solution still lies with Xu Youran. If he had not questioned her at the beginning, but had discussed it with her in a nice way, perhaps the matter would have been resolved long ago.

He sighed lightly, and walked forward as if he had made up his mind.

The maids bowed one after another, and Jiang Zhaorong walked into the house. Xu Youran was sipping tea, and Yi Qiao was the only one serving in the house.

"Go out, I have something to say to the madam."

Yi Qiao turned her head and saw Xu Youran nodded before leaving the house.

"If you are still here for Song Shiwei, you don't need to speak." Xu Youran said directly without even looking at him.

Jiang Zhaorong's mouth twitched, and after a while, he forced out a flattering smile. He did not sit down, but stood in front of Xu Youran, humbled himself, and lowered his head slightly.

After several words, Xu Youran ignored him until Jiang Zhaorong said, "It's all my fault. I was so angry that day that I said that. You deserve a beating."

His tone was soft, and Xu Youran raised her eyes: "Didn't I say you should be beaten? Why don't you move?"

Jiang Zhaorong: "..."

Seeing that Xu Youran didn't mean to be joking, he reached out and slapped himself. It was more like a touch than a slap.

"Yes, ma'am."

Xu Youran retracted her gaze and ignored him.

Jiang Zhaorong hardened his heart, raised his hand and slapped himself with a loud slap. Xu Youran then curled the corners of her mouth: "Just hit me once, not enough. Hit me as many times as you said that day."

Jiang Zhaorong didn't come here to hit her. When she heard her say that, her eyes immediately darkened and her words contained a threat: "Madam..." But

Xu Youran had already turned her head away, picked up the teacup and took a sip: "If you can't even do this, how can I believe that you are here to sincerely admit your mistakes?"

Jiang Zhaorong clenched his fists and raised his hands. Xu Youran reminded him at the right time: "I vaguely remember that there should be more than ten sentences, right, Prime Minister?"

The veins on Jiang Zhaorong's forehead jumped violently. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out the word "right" from between his teeth.

Xu Youran looked at him with a smile in her eyes, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

For a so-called adopted daughter, he could do so much, but when his own Zhiyu and Kang An were killed, he did not even say a word of concern, and he was still covering up for that adopted daughter! The more

Xu Youran thought about it, the colder her eyes became.

How blind was she to fall in love with him?

She looked at Jiang Zhaorong who slapped her, and sneered in her heart. She wanted to see how far this man in front of her could go for that adopted daughter!

She herself did not want to do anything. She felt it was dirty to touch such a person.

When Jiang Zhaorong stopped, both sides of her cheeks were already red and swollen, with fingerprints clearly visible, a trace of blood slowly seeping out of the corners of her mouth, and her ears were buzzing.

He turned his head, his eyes cold: "Are you satisfied?"

What's the point?

Xu Youran admired his wolfish attitude for a while, then said: "What are you talking about, Prime Minister? Your tone is like I'm forcing you to admit your mistakes."

She snorted coldly, Jiang Zhaorong suppressed his anger and coaxed her: "I don't mean that, I mean, since you are no longer angry, let's have a good talk, okay?"

"What?"

Jiang Zhaorong carefully observed her expression and said, "You know it well. Shi Wei has been taught by you since she was three years old. You also know her character..."

Xu Youran sneered and interrupted him, "I haven't taught her. If I remember correctly, it was you who kept her by your side. You did everything by yourself. What does it have to do with me?"

Jiang Zhaorong was shocked by her words . She was choked up, and wanted to refute her but didn't know how to refute her. She could only helplessly say, "Okay, I was wrong, but she has been raised in the Xiangfu for so many years. You can see what kind of person she is."

Xu Youran suddenly remembered Jiang Zhiyu's words. Such an ungrateful person was by her side, but she didn't notice it at all. Thinking of her ending mentioned by Jiang Zhiyu, Xu Youran suddenly felt a chill behind her.

Fortunately!

It seems that now, God can't stand it anymore, so he let Zhiyu remind her not to repeat the same mistake.

Thinking of this, Xu Youran's brows suddenly relaxed.

Jiang Zhaorong saw her expression and thought that she was touched by his words. His confidence increased immediately. He continued, "You don't know in the mansion how far the rumors in the capital have spread. The Prime Minister's Mansion has become a joke among them. Such a reputation will not have a good impact on Sulan and Zhiyu. What's more, Sulan is still going to marry the fifth prince."

He sighed and continued, "In my opinion, Shi Wei must have been instigated by the evil servants around her and went astray. When she comes back, I will make her kowtow in front of Kang'an and Zhiyu and admit her mistakes. I will never ask how Kang'an and Zhiyu want to deal with her. How do you think?"

"Kowtow and admit your mistakes?"

Xu Youran whispered softly. Seeing her reaction, Jiang Zhaorong immediately said, "Yes, kowtow and admit your mistakes."

Xu Youran tilted her head: "Then why don't you move?"

Jiang Zhaorong: "???"

He was stunned by her question for a moment, and after half a reaction, the smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a face full of anger, his eyes seemed to be on fire, and the expression on his face looked unprecedentedly ferocious.

"Xu Youran, do you know what you are saying?!"
