"What the hell is wrong with you?"
Xu Maocai walked towards Zhao Yaru with a dark face.
"Why am I going crazy? Don't you know? Wanqing is your most precious daughter, but what has become of her now?"
After saying that, she laughed at herself again, "Yeah, you have another daughter, why would you care about another daughter?"
"That's unreasonable. Go back."
Xu Maocai was a little embarrassed, because this pair of jade pots were the tokens of love he had secretly given to Zhao Yaru.
Only after Su Feng died did they dare to take it out openly.
Because this is Su Feng's dowry.
Now, Zhao Yaru brought it out so openly and said it out loud, which really made him lose face in front of Xu Wanyan.
"I won't leave. You, Xu Maocai, are not a human being. You are biased."
Xu Wanyan ignored Zhao Yaru's crying and walked directly to the table. She carefully picked up the jade pot and said, "Father, Mrs. Shen said this was the dowry my maternal grandparents gave my mother. Is that true?"
Xu Maocai looked embarrassed and nodded helplessly, "Yes."
Suddenly, Xu Wanyan's tears flowed down, "That's great, this is really my mother's dowry, and... it's a pair."
"They are a pair, and you gave the other one to the Shen family." Thinking of this, Xu Maocai felt a little sad.
Not only is this quality extremely valuable, it is also a token of love between him and Ya Ru. How can its value be estimated?
"Dad, I didn't give it to you. My sister gave it to me. She said it was an ordinary jade pot. It wasn't until Mrs. Shen told me that I realized it was actually..."
Xu Wanyan burst into tears, and Xu Maocai became even more angry with Zhao Yaru.
"Father, since mother doesn't want it anymore, let me take it back. This is what my mother left behind."
Xu Maocai was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Xu Wanyan to take the initiative to ask for it.
However, she immediately thought that it was her mother's thing, so it was normal for her to want it.
But, I don’t want to give it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Zhao Yaru with disappointment. She actually took it out like that.
"Take it back. It belongs to your damn mother. I don't want it!"
Xu Wanyan's expression changed. "Mother, how can you say that about my mother?"
"I just mean, what's the matter? I don't care about a broken pot at all."
Seeing Zhao Yaru's heartless look, Xu Maocai was also annoyed. "Wanyan, she doesn't want it anymore, so you can take it back."
"Thank you, Dad. I wonder if my mom has anything else. If..."
This time, Zhao Yaru was stunned. Yes, she still had a lot of things left by that dead guy. What should she do?
Return it all to Xu Wanyan?
Impossible, she can't do it!
Xu Maocai's expression also changed. "Wanyan, don't listen to her nonsense. It's getting late. You should go back quickly."
Xu Wanyan didn't argue and went back to Feiyun Garden with Qiao Yun, carrying the brocade box.
"Xu Maocai, you... you are not a human being. You are not as good to Wanqing as that dead girl..."
"Snap"
Zhao Yaru was stunned by Xu Maocai's slap.
When he looked up again, he saw Xu Maocai with a ferocious look on his face.
"You hit me? You actually hit me?"
Zhao Yaru shook her head in disbelief.
"My beating is considered light. You knew exactly what this pair of jade pots meant, yet you asked Wanqing to give them to Wanyan. Now, you are brazenly despising them."
"That bitch's thing makes me feel choked up."
Zhao Yaru shouted insincerely.
She didn't want to return it to Xu Wanyan, she wanted to take it out to remind Xu Maocai and let him coax her.
Seeing Xu Wanyan's success now, she felt sad, so sad!
But why doesn't he understand?
"Since you're feeling so frustrated, just give all of Su Feng's dowry to Wanyan. After all, it should be hers."
"You...Xu Maocai, I'm going to fight you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yaru scratched Xu Maocai's face.
In an instant, a blood mark appeared on Xu Maocai's face.
This really annoyed him, and he hit back without any hesitation.
......
That day, all of Xu Maocai's colleagues knew that he had taken leave, and there were rumors that his face was scratched by his wife.
Jinhuayuan
Mother Gu looked at Zhao Yaru's disheveled appearance and couldn't help crying out of heartache.
"Madam, why are you so stupid? The master has you in his heart, so you can just coax him. Why suffer this?"
Zhao Yaru looked at her disfigured self in the mirror and shook her head numbly, "I've long been gone from his heart."
"Madam, don't be silly. Everyone knows that the master only has you in his heart. Otherwise, Su Shi wouldn't have... lost his life back then."
"Humph! He just can't stand being controlled by the Su family."
"Then...what about Concubine Huang? When Concubine Huang was kicked out, she was pregnant."
Now, Zhao Yaru's face showed some emotion.
"Maocai, he has me in his heart, right?"
Seeing that Zhao Yaru had finally figured it out, Mother Gu said, "That's right. Why do you think the master is angry? Those jade pots are tokens of your love for the master. Now, you're showing them to the Second Miss. What do you think he'll think?"
"Those who know think you're angry, those who don't know think you want to break off all ties with the master. Besides, that's Su's dowry. How can the master save his face?"
Only then did Zhao Yaru realize how stupid she had been.
“But, he was the one who gave Xu Wanyan the jade pot first.”
Xu Maocai will always feel sorry for her for this.
"Madam, let's forget about this. You and the master have been together for so many years, don't let it be ruined by some dead things. If you do that, you will fall into the trap of the Second Miss."
"Mother Gu, what should we do now?"
Mother Gu shook her head and sighed, "Go and apologize to the master. Husband and wife always quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. From now on, as long as you can hold the master's heart, what else can the second young lady do?"
Although Zhao Yaru was not happy about it, she knew that this was the only way for now.
Her family is not well off, and if she really leaves Xu Maocai, she doesn't know how to survive.
"Mother Gu, I'll listen to you."
"Oh, that's right."
///
After listening to Qiao Yun's vivid description, Xu Wanyan laughed so hard that her stomach hurt.
"How do you know so clearly?"
"Miss, there's a little maid in the front hall who's now the maid's sister. The Madam and the Master have made a big fuss about this, and many of the servants are talking about it privately."
"Both of them were injured?"
"Yes, the bloodstains on the master's face are horrible! But the lady is not much better, she looks like a beggar outside."
Xu Wanyan couldn't help laughing. This was probably their first fight, and it was so intense.
It seems that the love between them is stronger than gold, but it is just like this!
