She picked up a long whip and whipped Ruan Hezhu hard, causing her to scream in pain.
"Mother, I am your daughter. Please don't listen to the nonsense of this fake Taoist priest."
The pain in her body made Ruan Hezhu sober up a little. She could not admit that she was a wandering ghost no matter what.
She is Ruan Hezhu, the real Ruan Hezhu.
But Mrs. Ruan wouldn't listen to her at all. She firmly believed that after twenty whips, the evil spirit would leave Ruan Hezhu's body.
As the whip fell again and again, Ruan Hezhu's sanity gradually disappeared.
Although she is not a rich girl in modern times, she comes from a well-off family and has never suffered any hardship, let alone been beaten.
But after only being here for more than a month, she was not only humiliated, but also beaten repeatedly. She really couldn't stand it anymore.
"I am the protagonist of this world. How dare you treat me like this? I will never forgive you in the future."
"You ancient people are feudal and ignorant. I am a goddess sent by heaven to save you. You should kowtow to me. Such disrespect will bring punishment from heaven."
But the louder she shouted, the harder Mrs. Ruan whipped her. She was now more and more convinced that Ruan Hezhu was really possessed by a ghost.
After twenty lashes, Ruan Hezhu was already dying.
But Mrs. Ruan had no intention of stopping. Lord Ruan, who rushed back after hearing the noise, was so frightened when he saw this situation that he quickly snatched the whip away and asked someone to call a doctor to treat Ruan Hezhu.
Mrs. Ruan kept chattering, saying that Ruan Hezhu was possessed by a ghost and that she was saving their real daughter.
As a result, Lord Ruan scolded her directly and harshly, and threatened that if anything happened to Ruan Hezhu, she would not be forgiven.
And that master was also kicked out of the Ruan family.
The master looked at the gate of the Ruan family, sneered, and then left.
He turned left and right in the alley and finally entered a teahouse.
He came to the private room and called out respectfully, "Miss, it's all done."
He told the woman inside everything that happened in the Ruan Mansion today.
After a while, a woman came out from behind the green gauze cabinet. It was Wen Xia. She nodded with satisfaction and handed the master a gold ingot.
"Well done."
Wen Xia reported all these situations to Yu Shulan.
In fact, the master was the one she found. He was originally a wandering ghost and dared to act wildly on the territory of the Yuan Dynasty.
Even if Ruan Hezhu doesn't die this time, he will be well behaved for a few months.
I just didn't expect that Lord Ruan would be so protective of his daughter.
Just as we dealt with the heroine, Liu couldn't help but come over again.
As soon as she saw her, Yu Shulan guessed why she came.
Sure enough, Liu went straight to the point as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Sister-in-law, you've already finished your confinement. How's the last time I told you?"
"What is it?"
Yu Shulan held the sleeping Jiang Qingwan in her arms and asked in a puzzled manner.
"It's about proposing marriage to the Ye family. Lang'er can't wait. I've never seen him so interested in a woman. As a mother, you, as an aunt, shouldn't you help him?"
"I'm afraid this won't work."
"Why?" Liu's face changed. She thought it was a sure thing, but she didn't expect Yu Shulan to refuse.
"Sister-in-law, as the saying goes, a daughter is sought after by hundreds of families, let alone a girl as talented and beautiful as Miss Ye. To be honest, Chu Yuan also has a crush on Miss Ye. As you said, as a mother, I should also help her."
"Chu Yuan also has his eyes on Ye Rong'er? How can he, as a younger brother, compete with his elder brother for a woman?"
Liu stood up and spoke sternly. Her sharp voice woke Jiang Qingwan up. She opened her sleepy eyes, a little confused.
[I was practicing when I heard this noise. It turned out to be my great aunt.]
[What is she doing? Is she trying to get her mother to propose to Jiang Yilang? Please don't do that.]
Yu Shulan patted Jiang Qingwan gently and said in a cold voice.
"What you said, sister-in-law, is inappropriate. What do you mean Chu Yuan is competing with Lang Er? Chu Yuan met Miss Ye at the poetry gathering last year and fell in love with her at first sight. It was only because I was pregnant at the time that the matter was put on hold."
"As I just said, a daughter of one family is sought after by hundreds of families. I can propose marriage to the Ye family on behalf of Lang'er, and sister-in-law can also let someone else go. As for who Miss Ye wants to choose, it's entirely up to her."
"It's impossible that if Jiang Yilang takes a fancy to a woman, she will be his and no one else can marry her."
"you……"
Liu's face turned red with anger, but she couldn't find any words to refute.
More importantly, she knew in her heart that as long as Ye Ronger was not blind, she would not give up Jiang Chuyuan and choose Jiang Yilan.
"Yu Shulan, you're really going too far. I'm going to tell Mom."
After saying that, Liu ran out angrily.
[Eldest Auntie couldn't win the argument, so she went to ask for help. That biased grandmother would definitely side with the eldest wife, no doubt.]
This grandmother is incredibly biased. Even when the second wife was killed by the first and third wives, she still sided with them. It's a shame that my parents were so filial to her and always obeyed her.
Yu Shulan's heart skipped a beat. She had always known that her mother-in-law was partial to her. Although her eldest brother was not good at either civil or military affairs, he was the best at sweet talk, and thus made her parents-in-law like him very much.
Otherwise, her father-in-law, who was always cold and hard, would not have tried to find connections everywhere to get him a position.
As for the third wife, she was the youngest and had been weak since childhood, so she also received a lot of attention from her mother-in-law. Only she, the husband, was in the middle and no one cared about her.
If it weren't for his own hard work, he might have been abandoned by the Jiang family.
Yu Shulan never cared about her mother-in-law's partiality. She felt very sorry for herself as an old widower after her father-in-law passed away.
As a daughter-in-law, one should put filial piety first, and she has always done so in the past.
No matter how rude her mother-in-law's request was, she agreed to it, including giving out part of her dowry to add to the dowry for her sister-in-law who married far away, and she did not object.
But this must be based on the premise that her child will not be harmed. Once this bottom line is touched, she will not give in to anyone.
Yu Shulan felt angry when she thought about her mother-in-law watching Jiang Qingluo being flattered by the eldest wife and indulging her in it.
Sure enough, not long after, Nanny Ji, who was beside Old Madam Jiang, came over and said that the old lady wanted to see her.
Yu Shulan originally wanted to go over by herself, but Jiang Qingwan kept shouting in her heart.
I want to go too. I want to see how biased this grandmother is.
Unable to bear to disappoint her, Yu Shulan carried her along.
Arriving at the old lady's courtyard, I saw her sitting in the main hall, with the complacent Liu sitting to her right. To her left sat a younger woman, gentle and charming, Su Wu, the wife of the third wife.
I don't know what she said, but it made the old lady laugh.
