Chapter 97 We Don’t Know Each Other
Zhang Juexia was really shocked by Qian Yulin's words.
She was actually envied by the wives of wealthy families. This was a bit too outrageous!
Qian Yulin smiled calmly, "Did my words scare you?"
"Well, Madam, ah... do you know how many people in Jinshui Town envy you?"
"Why are you envious of me? You're just standing there, guarding this wall in front of you. You can't get out, and you can't get in."
Li Yingyue walked forward and hugged Qian Yulin with heartache, shaking her head at Zhang Juexia.
Li Yingrou also stood up and leaned against Qian Yulin. "Mom, aren't you very happy today? Why did you bring up all this?"
Zhang Juexia stood up in confusion. She didn’t say anything.
"Madam, the Eighth Concubine is outside asking to see you?
She also brought her parents along, saying she had something to discuss with the Madam.
Qian Yulin calmed himself down and said, "I'm fine. I was just happy today and accidentally said what was in my heart."
Soon, Qian Yulin's whole temperament was like a completely different person. She straightened her back and gave an order, "Let the Eighth Concubine come in and talk first!"
She signaled Li Yingyue and Li Yingrou to step aside first.
Zhang Juexia was quite tactful and understood that Zhang Qiuye came just for her, so she sat there without moving.
Zhang Qiuye was brought into the main hall by the servants. She looked around with her peripheral vision.
She was a concubine of the Li family, and she was not qualified to eat in the main hall unless specially summoned.
When she thought about Zhang Juexia sitting in the main hall, eating and chatting with the mistress of the Li family, her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
Why?
Zhang Qiuye felt increasingly indignant. As he entered the main hall, he had no choice but to bow his head and salute Qian Yulin. "Meet the Madam."
"Get up quickly. You're pregnant now, and I can't bear your courtesy. Hurry up and get a stool for the Eighth Concubine so she can sit and talk."
Zhang Qiuye sat down gratefully, but he didn't dare sit down completely, so he only took up a small half of the space on the stool.
Qian Yulin pretended to be concerned and said, "I just heard them say that your parents are here, why didn't they come in?"
"Without the lady's call, they didn't dare to come in."
"That's what I said. Anyone who comes to our door is a guest. Let them in quickly."
A clever little girl was about to go outside to call for help, but was stopped by Zhang Qiuye, "Madam, wait a moment..."
Zhang Qiuye glared at Zhang Juexia before standing up. "Madam, to be honest, the Miss Ye you're hosting today is my sister."
Zhang Juexia stood up immediately and said, "Don't talk nonsense. We don't know each other at all. Is the Eighth Concubine having hysterics?"
"I knew you would quibble. Do you dare to let your parents come in to confront me?"
Zhang Juexia found Zhang Qiuye's behavior really funny. "Madam Li, this isn't the government office, and we can't judge cases. If I say I don't know you, then I don't know you. Why bother with all this trouble?"
"I knew you didn't dare to see them."
"What's there to be afraid of? Just call them in."
Zhang Juexia felt disgusted. Some people are just annoying. The more unwilling you are to interact with her, the more she will cling to you like taffy.
She stood up and bowed to Qian Yulin, "It is because of me that I have disturbed Madam's peace and quiet. It is truly a sin."
Qian Yulin waved his hand, "Miss Ye, why are you saying this? You are a guest invited by our Li Mansion, why are you disturbing my peace and quiet?
"Eighth Concubine, don't keep us in suspense. Please invite your parents in!"
Tian Caihong and Zhang Defu were invited.
Tian Caihong came in and started to get close to Qian Yulin, "If it were based on our relationship with Qiu Ye, would you still have to call me aunt?"
Everyone was trying to hold back their laughter.
Aunt Liu was an old woman who served Qian Yulin. She scolded Tian Caihong in public, "Don't talk nonsense. Our wife is the legitimate wife of the Li family. How can she be related to a concubine's family?
Eighth Concubine, now that you are a concubine of the Li family, you must control your family members and do not break the rules."
Zhang Qiuye reluctantly stood up and replied, "Yes."
Tian Caihong pouted and muttered softly, "I can't give birth to a son, and yet there are so many rules. Who are you trying to scare?"
Zhang Qiuye quickly pulled her sleeve and told her to stop talking nonsense.
Zhang Defu had already seen Zhang Juexia, "Xia'er..."
Zhang Juexia didn't want to waste time talking to them. "Madam, it's getting late. I'll go back first. I'll come back to bother you when I come to town again."
Tian Caihong yelled, "Who told you to leave? You're leaving before we've even finished talking?"
Qian Yulin looked at Tian Caihong with a cold face, "Are you the Eighth Concubine's biological mother?"
"Isn't this asking even though you already know the answer? Madam Li, is it correct for me to call you that?
I'm reminding you for Qiu Ye's sake that Zhang Juexia is not a good person. Don't be fooled by her appearance."
"Oh, what's wrong with it? Could Mrs. Zhang tell me about it?"
"She doesn't recognize any of her relatives. She is clearly our Zhang family's daughter, but she claims she doesn't know us."
"Madam, please don't listen to their nonsense. Jue Xia has a hidden reason for doing this."
"What's the secret? Tell me now. You're still lying at this time."
"I am now living a rich and happy life. I don't want to talk about those past events anymore. I hope my wife will forgive me."
"Stop making excuses for yourself. You were clearly unfilial first, yet you're still playing tricks on me, spouting nonsense. Do you really think everyone's easy to fool?"
Zhang Qiuye really couldn't bear it anymore. If she didn't take action, Tian Caihong would not be a match for Zhang Juexia.
"Zhang Qiuye, how am I unfilial? Tell me."
"You don't recognize your parents."
"I don't recognize my parents, and they don't think about whether what they did was what a parent should do."
"You acknowledged them as your parents."
"I didn't say no! They didn't want me anymore. They had already written the document severing ties with me before I got married."
"you......."
Zhang Qiuye was speechless.
Zhang Juexia really didn't want to get involved with this bunch of rotten people, as it would affect her mood. She bowed to Qian Yulin again and said, "I'm really sorry to have made a fool of myself, Madam. Madam, please don't get involved in this kind of rotten thing.
Madam, please send someone to invite someone from the government office to help us decide this case.
Let them see whether this document of severance is effective or not."
"Madam Liu, please take my name card and ask the people from the government office to come over.
I'm tired too, I need to take a good rest."
When Tian Caihong heard that people from the yamen were being sent, she started to panic. After all, she had suffered a lot from the yamen in the past period of time.
"No, no, Madam Li, if Zhang Juexia says he doesn't know us, then he doesn't know us!"
