Sun was in a very bad state.
She was shaking all over, her mind went blank, and she lost the ability to think.
Wu looked at her with a look full of contempt and hostility.
"I'll have my husband talk to my second brother about this matter. I hope my sister-in-law can replace the things she took from Yuwei as soon as possible."
"Those are gifts from the Emperor. We cannot ignore them. If His Majesty hears about this and learns that the things given to Yuwei were secretly given away by my sister-in-law, and he blames us, it will only affect my second brother and Baichuan's future."
[Mother is truly amazing. The old woman cares most about the future of her son and eldest grandson. After listening to her mother, no matter how difficult the second wife's family is, she will definitely find a way to get back what she stole.]
In fact, Sun had already recovered the things that she had tricked the original owner away.
The 50,000 taels of silver notes she took in the name of helping Tao Baichuan get a position in the Imperial Guards in the palace were enough to offset the value of those things she took.
But this time, my mother was completely angry.
Mrs. Wu was so kind to her second aunt, Mrs. Sun, that she was completely devoted to her.
However, she didn't expect that the other person had evil intentions and had been planning against her for a long time.
"Second Brother's family, I don't care what method you use, you must go back to your parents' home as soon as possible and get those things back. If you can't do it, I will divorce you in the name of the Second Brother!"
Fang pointed at Sun with trembling hands. She was so angry that her chest felt stuffy and she was short of breath. Her old face was twisted and looked hideous and scary.
Tao Zhihong watched all this coldly.
In the past, he and his wife had always been troubled by their daughter's arrogant personality.
In order to correct his daughter's temperament, he disciplined her strictly every time he saw her, requiring her to be quiet, elegant, gentle and generous.
The wife often lectures her daughter for her future.
This has resulted in my daughter being estranged from them for a long time, and they can barely speak to each other when they meet, and disputes are bound to arise.
Who would have thought that there was someone maliciously instigating things behind the scenes?
And the person who instigated the conflict was their brother's wife, whom they thought had good character.
Tao Baichuan and Tao Xueqi, brother and sister, were very dissatisfied with their mother's behavior of secretly subsidizing her family.
Their uncle's family is a group of ungrateful people who can never be tamed. Every time they go there, those people will try every possible means to take away the good things they have.
My mother also spoke up for my cousins.
"Mom, you are confused!"
Tao Baichuan sighed helplessly, covered his face with his hands, feeling ashamed.
"Mom, it's ok that you usually favor my uncle's family, but why can't you figure out the big things?"
Tao Xueqi couldn't hold back her anger and complained out loud.
Sun reacted after being hit by their words.
After regaining her senses, Sun actually ran to Wu and suddenly knelt down.
She pulled at Wu's skirt with both hands, raised her head and begged in pain.
"Sister-in-law, you are the kindest person. Since I saved you back then, please help me and give up these things, okay?"
My eldest brother had already exchanged those things for silver and squandered them all in the gambling house.
Where could she get these things?
[Wow! Sun is so shameless! She even dared to mention saving her mother. She wasn't the one who saved her mother!]
After hearing this, Wu tore off the hem of her skirt that was in Sun's hand in disbelief and subconsciously took several steps back.
Tao Zhihong widened his eyes.
What? Sun's life-saving grace was actually fake?
[My mother was pregnant for more than three months but she didn't realize it. She ran to the famous Ci'en Temple in the western suburbs of the capital to burn incense and pray for my grandfather who was fighting against the Nanman.
On the way down the mountain, it rained heavily and a landslide occurred, and the carriage my mother was riding in was hit.
She was saved at the risk of her life by the owner of a passing carriage. On his way back to the city, the carriage owner had an emergency and temporarily placed my mother in a farmhouse. When my mother woke up, she was found lying in the home of a poor scholar.
The scholar's daughter noticed from her mother's clothing that she was no ordinary person. Seeing her mother regain consciousness, she busied herself with serving tea and water, and even enthusiastically helped to call a doctor. This doctor was none other than Sun, who had remained unmarried due to her high expectations.
After the doctor's diagnosis, the mother's unborn child died. After her heartbreak, she asked Sun if she had saved her. Without hesitation, Sun nodded and admitted that she had saved her mother.
[In this way, Sun took advantage of her mother's gratitude and found out the information about the General's Mansion. She learned that the general's brother had not yet married, so she plotted against her second uncle and accomplished his goal.
Fang despised Sun, but she hadn't anticipated her arrival, pregnant. She deliberately played the victim in front of her mother, claiming her second uncle had taken advantage of her when he went to her house on behalf of her eldest sister-in-law to deliver a thank-you gift. Unaware of her, her mother, feeling guilty, spoke well of her in front of Fang, and she eventually married into the family of the Great General.
[In fact, in order to climb up the social ladder, Sun, with the help of her brother, gave her second uncle that drug, and successfully got pregnant and took the throne.]
[She was able to marry my second uncle because she took advantage of my mother. After entering the mansion, she lived an unhappy life. She was very envious of my father's kindness to my mother and often went to my mother to complain and try to steal her good things.]
Wu shook her head in disbelief.
My daughter was not born at that time, so how could she know the past events so clearly?
Maybe my daughter is dissatisfied with her younger siblings, and this is all my guess?
How could the savior that I personally confirmed be fake?
If I tell my mother this, she might not believe it. After all, Sun has been pretending to be her for many years.
[Sun will definitely complain to Mother next, saying that she didn't deliberately cheat me of the things, but was coerced by her brother...]
Seeing that Wu was avoiding her, Sun felt a pang in her heart and felt very uneasy.
Every time she would start by begging for her misery to her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law would calm down and listen to her talk about her distress. After listening, she would try to comfort her and give her a lot of good things to ask her to supplement the family income.
Why did my sister-in-law show annoyance on her face right from the start this time?
No, she must seize the opportunity and let her sister-in-law help her again.
Settle the matter of misappropriation of royal gifts.
As for my niece, Princess Anle, my eldest sister-in-law has personally stepped in to resolve the issue. As long as my family members don't spread the word to outsiders, I believe His Majesty will not know about this trivial matter.
Now her mother-in-law and the eldest wife's family all know that she had tricked her niece into giving her some good things in the past, which is indeed a bit embarrassing.
But compared to the shame, she could not bear the consequences of affecting her husband and son's future.
Sun made up his mind and decided to give it a try.
"Sister-in-law, I was foolish and shouldn't have taken things from Yuwei. However, I really didn't do it on purpose. It was my brother from my mother's family who was foolish. He threatened me that if I didn't give him money to help him pay off his gambling debts, he would go out and sue my husband for allegedly accepting bribes!"
Mrs. Wu's face changed drastically.
My daughter's words came true.
Her sister-in-law is really too much.
He keeps telling lies and never tells the truth.
