Chapter 171 Now it seems that I was extremely stupid.
Seeing her like this, the aunt said angrily.
"Madam, you just saw it. Your sister was playing tricks on you. My Mianmian just took her pulse and diagnosed her. She's doing very well! She's in better health than anyone else."
"But she pretended to be sick and made you wait on her day and night. Isn't that just torturing you? And that old bastard, Boss Wang, saw it all, but he sided with your sister and covered it up for her."
"Maybe she already knew your sister was fine, but she didn't say anything and just let you serve her! The two of them are colluding to trick you!"
The woman smiled bitterly, and her feet felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
There were tears at the corners of her mouth, and the smile in her eyes was cold.
"Aunt Ruan, you're right. Perhaps I've been deceived by them for many years."
"I thought about how my sister had wanted to keep me in the family, willingly marrying into the family, and willingly giving me the child after giving birth. I thought... they were all doing this for my own good."
"Now it seems that I was extremely foolish. I gave all my dowry to my husband to support his business, and now I have nothing left..."
In fact, she had already had doubts. A-mei was sent here by her mother with great effort, and her mother provided her with food, clothing and other expenses.
But considering that she had adopted her child and she was her biological sister, she would rather she was overthinking it.
Now that she saw with her own eyes that she was pretending to be sick, how could she continue to deceive herself!
The eldest aunt took a deep breath and wanted to scold her to wake her up: "You still have a life, so it's not like you have nothing!"
"You have hands and feet, so you can't survive if you leave this mansion? If so, you can't survive, and you deserve to die."
The words were rough but the truth was there, and they resonated deeply with the woman.
The aunt wanted to curse a few more times, but she saw the woman suddenly quicken her pace and walk forward.
"Where are you going?" Aunt looked at Ruan Mian in confusion, and the two followed her.
She went straight to the Guancheng Yamen and beat the drum vigorously!
The sound of drums made many people stop and watch.
The eldest aunt immediately snapped her fingers and said, "Mianmian, just wait."
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
As the drumbeats grew louder, the woman's voice grew more resolute: "Sir! I have been wronged."
Soon, Boss Wang and his concubine Yin Niang came running over in a panic!
Seeing so many people gathered around, he immediately stepped forward to stop the woman: "What are you doing here?! Do you want everyone to know about the good deeds you have done?!"
The woman glared at them fiercely and swung the drumstick at Boss Wang's face.
"You dare to do something, why don't you dare let others see it?"
"When I first met you, you promised me that I would be your only wife and that you would never take a concubine! You asked me to use all my dowry to support your business. I trusted you and loved you, so I agreed."
"Later, I toiled for you day and night, embroidering for your first business. I lost half my eye and became ill. After years of having no children, you began to think of taking a concubine."
After he finished speaking, he choked up and looked at Yinniang: "And you, my dear sister, although you and I are not born from the same mother, I have treated you as my own sister since you were young and have never treated you unfairly."
"I also believed what you and your daughter said for my own good. I thought you were willing to sacrifice yourself for my sake and be with me for the rest of my life. I accepted the idea of sisters sharing the same husband."
"I think we are family after all, so it's better for others to move into the mansion. I will take care of all your food, clothing and other expenses!"
"Yet you pretended to be sick when you weren't actually sick, and made me your nanny for two years, serving you personally. Your son was useless no matter how I taught him. He had no manners and no skills. I think it was you who gossiped about him behind his back, making him resent me so much."
"You are such a heartless family, you've caught me and used me as your own! If that's the case, then we'll fight to the bitter end. Wang Shi, have you forgotten how many lives you and your second brother secretly took for your own herbal medicine shop?"
"Stop talking nonsense here!!"
Boss Wang was so frightened that his face turned pale. After a scolding, he hurriedly explained to the people around him.
"My wife got so angry that she started talking nonsense. Don't believe her."
After saying that, he quickly put on another expression, softened his tone and begged in front of the woman.
"Madam, family matters should be discussed behind closed doors. And Yinniang, it's all because of her ignorance! Let her apologize to you now!"
Seeing his angry expression, Yin Niang didn't dare to pretend anymore and quickly stood up with an apologetic look on her face.
"Sister, sister, I'll do whatever you ask. I'm sorry for you. You should go back with us! If the official really comes out, what will happen to our family?"
"Besides, if you sue my husband, you'll go to jail no matter what!"
"If you don't think about others, think about yourself."
As he said this, he crawled over and tried to take the woman away.
The woman's eyes turned fierce, and she raised her hand and slapped him twice!
The beating caused half of Miss Yin's face to become red and swollen. Later, she imitated Ruan Mian, kicked her knee, pulled off her hairpin, and stabbed her thigh hard.
Suddenly Yin Niang rolled on the ground in pain, screaming and crying.
The woman smiled, stood up, and threw away the drumstick. "That's right. If I sue the officials, I'll go to jail no matter what. So I won't sue the officials, I'll sue the people!"
After saying that, he opened his voice and told everyone everything.
"Everyone, my husband, for the sake of his own herbal medicine shop, drove the former Tongxintang owner and his entire family out of the city a few years ago. He also killed the foreigner who used to sell medicine there."
"In the past two years, the farms and houses under his name have been registered in the names of different people, but they were all illegally obtained and snatched from others!"
"Also, the original plan to build the West Field East Market was also blocked by my husband, who secretly hired people to scare away those foreigners, which resulted in many losses."
As soon as this was said, the crowd became excited.
"The Xitian East Market was originally built by the people of Dajing. It is said that after someone died, they said that this place was unlucky. Otherwise, if it had been built, so many people in our Guancheng would have benefited."
"That's right. Since the West Field East Market couldn't be built, the Wang brothers built their shop in that better location. Could it be that they were secretly harming others just for that location?"
“Nonsense!!”
Boss Wang roared in anger, and the people around him were also surprised.
"Wang Shi, you are so heartless!!"
"Is what your wife said true? My Lord, my Lord!!"
"Investigate thoroughly, the government must investigate thoroughly. Wouldn't it be a disaster if these unscrupulous merchants stayed in our city?"
With the people around him making a fuss, Boss Wang felt ashamed.
