The old lady was telling the truth, but it was particularly harsh to Yao's ears: "Old lady, you should have a conscience. For so many years, I have been the one who has worked hard for the Lili family, and I am also the one who serves you. Why do you never see the good in me?"
"Your good? What's good about you?" the old lady asked, "You can't win Ting'er's heart, and you can't teach your children well. Look at your son, and then look at Meng Sang's son. Li Liyu only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long. How can he compare to Li Li Yanqing? Even your daughter has brought shame to the Li Li family."
The old lady was biased towards Li Liyu, but she had to admit that Li Liyanqing was better than him. She was a little angry when she said these words.
"Madam, if that's the case, have you taught your son well?" Yao completely tore off the disguised harmony on the surface, "The current Duke of Zhenguo was personally brought up and taught by the old man. He has killed countless enemies on the battlefield and has made numerous military achievements.
Look at the son you educated, Li Liting. You said that my son only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. Isn't Li Liting the same? We all teach the same character. No one should look down on anyone else!"
The old lady pointed at Yao and was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe. Fortunately, Yao Tingzhi supported her: "Minzhi, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"It has come to this, what else do I have to fear?" Yao continued to scold, "You old hag, you have one foot in the coffin, but you are still thinking about the property of the Li family. Are you going to take all those things into the underground?
For so many years, you have been plotting against me. On the surface, I am the lady of the Li family, but in fact, I am just a servant who does things for you.
What do you have to be proud of? It's just that you are lucky enough to marry well and everyone calls you old lady.
But you don’t even open your eyes to see that the old man doesn’t like you at all, and the Duke of Zhenguo has no affection for you as his mother. There’s no need to wait until you die before this family breaks up…”
The old lady spoke with difficulty: "Yao is crazy, drag her away and lock her up."
Baoqin happened to take the prescription written by Doctor Zhao at this time. The old lady snatched the prescription directly from Baoqin's hand and said: "I think her face doesn't need to be treated, lest it harm others after being cured."
Judging from the current condition of Yao's face, if left untreated, her entire body would fester and die.
Suddenly, Su Chenyu snatched the prescription from the old lady's hand and said, "The reason why Yao used the ointment mixed with gold juice is because I punished her first. For this matter, I cannot stand idly by."
Su Chenyu handed the prescription to Madam Xu and said, "Madam, keep this prescription. Keep an eye on Yao's house during this period. Make sure someone treat Yao's face properly."
Su Chenyu wants to protect the Yao family!
The old lady's face darkened: "Princess, what do you mean by this?"
"Isn't it clear to the old lady?" Su Chenyu asked back, "Yao's face must be cured, otherwise if she dies and the news gets out, people will think that I, the princess, am so cruel."
"Princess, Yao's affair has nothing to do with you."
"Old Madam, when you had me invited here, you didn't mean that, did you? Now that you and Yao have had a disagreement, you say that I have nothing to do with it. Do you really think that I am someone you can summon and dismiss at will?"
Su Chenyu's voice remained calm, but her words carried a shocking power. No one dared to underestimate this princess.
The old lady felt extremely ashamed, but there was nothing she could do. In front of the imperial power, she was at fault first, so she could only bow her head and say, "It was my fault."
