Side courtyard.
After Wei helped Madam Wei into the house, she waved her hand and sent the maids and servants out.
"Mom, how are you?"
Wei helped Madam Wei sit down on the couch.
Madam Wei glanced at Madam Liu, who immediately walked around the room and finally asked her people to guard the door before she nodded slightly to Madam Wei.
Only then did Mrs. Wei stop looking dizzy and weak.
"Lian'er, what on earth is going on?"
"When I came here last time, your mother-in-law was fine. It's only been a few days. How come she's so sick? Is it possible that she's pretending? And what's going on with that old country woman?"
Mrs. Wei's face didn't look very good, but her tone was still very gentle when she spoke to Wei.
"She's definitely not faking it. I saw it with my own eyes. She was bleeding profusely, and doctors came in batches, all saying she was beyond saving."
Wei described in detail what had happened in the past few days.
But when talking about Aunt Yang, Wei's expression was obviously a little uncomfortable.
"As for that aunt...after hearing the news that my mother-in-law was seriously ill, she brought her family and children here overnight. She stayed by my mother-in-law's side every day and even dragged me along to accompany her..."
A country woman, no one knew what was wrong with her mouth, but she was really good at talking, and every word she said was like pinching her heart, making it impossible for her to refute, and forcing her to always "obey".
Thinking about these days, Wei felt uneasy.
When Mrs. Wei saw Wei's reaction, she immediately understood that the old woman Wei was using Jin Ge'er to control her!
Thinking about what just happened in the main house.
Madam Wei lowered her eyes and said, "That old thing can't be kept!"
What?
Wei was stunned.
Until she met Madam Wei's gaze, her heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously grabbed Madam Wei's hand: "Mother, she's just an old woman from the countryside. She'll be back in a few days. There's no need to kill her, right?"
"Miss, someone who can control you will only be a disaster if you keep her. You can't be so soft-hearted!" These words were said by Aunt Liu.
Wei was about to say something.
But when she looked at Aunt Liu, she couldn't help but be stunned.
dislike?
She actually saw...disdain in Aunt Liu's eyes?
Wei thought he was dazzled.
In the end, she still didn't dare to say anything to plead for mercy, but only said to Madam Wei, "Mother, even if you do it, can you please not do it in the Marquis' Mansion? Brother Jin will become an official after he passes the imperial examination, and I'm afraid it will implicate him."
When Madam Wei heard this, her face darkened.
"So what if I become an official?"
"Lian'er, don't forget your own identity."
I was really brainwashed by that Aunt Yang!
It's really infuriating to see an "official" controlling her like this.
"Mom, I haven't forgotten."
"I just... I just think that we should let Brother Jin be an official first, so that when the great cause is accomplished in the future, he will have the experience to inherit the throne..." Wei whispered what she was thinking.
Madam Wei rubbed her eyebrows.
According to orthodoxy.
What Webster said is also correct.
As the only surviving royal bloodline of Yun Country, she would naturally inherit the throne when the great cause was accomplished in the future. As her son, Yang Huaijin could indeed succeed him, but...
Thinking of Yang Huaijin's rebellious look with his nose in the air!
Mrs. Wei felt very bad.
I feel like... he's going to do something bad in the future!!
A sneer flashed in Aunt Liu's eyes.
She lowered her eyes and said, "Old Madam, what the young lady said makes sense. The young lady is the only royal bloodline of our Yun Kingdom. The child she gives birth to will be able to inherit our Yun Kingdom's throne in the future."
"But now is not the time to talk about this."
"Old Madam, don't forget the purpose of our visit. The Marquis of Zhenbei is about to return. This will be our best chance."
"What opportunity?"
Wei was a little confused.
Aunt Liu did not explain.
Old Madam Wei glanced at Wei and didn't explain much.
He just patted her hand gently and said, "Don't worry about it. I will leave Aunt Liu to you this time. Just listen to Aunt Liu from now on."
Wei wanted to ask more, but was stopped by a look from Madam Wei.
"Lian'er, be obedient!"
"Knowing too much about some things is not good for you. Just remember that everything we are doing now is for you and for the great cause of our Yun Kingdom." Madam Wei comforted her.
Wei's eyes dimmed.
It’s always like this…
But just then, Xiaozhu came in with sweet soup.
"Madam, Madam!"
Xiao Zhu entered the room, bowed, and put down the sweet soups that were brought to her one by one: "Old lady, Madam, you two should have a bowl of sweet soup first."
"Just now, when I arrived at the kitchen, I heard that the Yang family's aunt's daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law were making a bunch of weird things again. They insisted that the kitchen make them. I guess today's lunch will have to be postponed again."
"Madam, Madam, please drink some sweet soup to fill your stomach first."
Upon hearing this, Wei's face immediately darkened: "Why are they here again!"
She hasn't had a comfortable meal in the past few days.
"What's going on?" asked Mrs. Wei.
Before Wei could speak, Xiao Zhu exaggerated the story and continued to speak indignantly, "Madam, you haven't had enough to eat or sleep these past few days. You've been suffering terribly."
"Those women did it on purpose. They just saw that Madam had lost her power in the household, so they deliberately made things difficult for Madam and embarrassed her."
"The most abominable thing is that both the Yang family's grandmother and Miss Yang knew about this, but they didn't care and even acquiesced. That's why those women became even more aggressive."
"I just heard them whispering that Madam wasn't even a second wife, that the Marquis didn't acknowledge her at the time, and that it was Madam who coaxed the old lady into having her included in the family tree. They said that in their village, Madam is considered a paid-for concubine..."
"Pah!"
Madam Wei slammed the table with her hand, her face extremely gloomy.
Wei's face flushed with anger: "How dare they... I'm going to tear their mouths apart!"
Wei stood up angrily.
Madam Wei held her down, her face gloomy as ice. She ordered Madam Liu, "Madam Liu, take someone to the kitchen and check! If it's really as Xiaozhu said, tear their mouths apart with your own hands."
Aunt Liu glanced at Xiao Zhu, a glint flickered in her eyes, and nodded; "Yes."
"Xiaozhu, lead the way."
Aunt Liu looked at Xiao Zhu and said.
Xiao Zhu blinked his eyes filled with indignation and nodded, then walked out of the house with Aunt Liu.
On the way to the kitchen.
Aunt Liu kept her eyes fixed on Xiaozhu, who was leading the way. The more she looked, the narrower her eyes became. When they reached a more secluded place, Aunt Liu suddenly asked, "Xiaozhu, where is Liuzhu?"
