Chapter 327: Marquis's Madam vs. Younger Prince 70
Wu's shout attracted a lot of people to watch. The Liang family's scandal had spread throughout the capital. As soon as the debt collectors left, a new bustle came.
People are often generous to others, and some passers-by who think they are kind-hearted immediately started to give advice.
"The old lady is quite pitiful. She has already knelt down. Please don't be so persistent."
"That's right, there's no such thing as overnight grudges between husband and wife. They quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. There's nothing that can't be overcome."
"The Liang family is now in decline, and you are rushing out without caring about the relationship between husband and wife. How will it look if it gets out? Anyway, the women in my family will not be so heartless and ungrateful."
When Wu heard that someone agreed with her, she became more excited and beat Ji Yunhuan even louder, fearing that she was not miserable enough to force Ji Yunhuan to stay.
Ji Yunhuan looked coldly at Wu and those idle people who were just watching the fun, without saying a word.
Until Wu could no longer fight, her cheeks were swollen like a pig's head, blood was flowing from the corners of her mouth, she was kneeling on the ground and was about to fall, but she still had to support her body and look at her ingratiatingly.
"Daughter-in-law, please come in quickly. Everyone is watching us."
Wan Niang had simply applied some medicine. Her clothes were all seductive styles, but now she didn't want to wear them anymore, so she changed into Shiqin's clothes.
Shiqin is a taciturn person, and her wife is well-educated and sensible, yet she is forced by this old woman.
Wan Niang put her hands on her hips, spat fiercely at Wu, and said loudly: "Now you know you are wrong? It's too late! When you falsely accused Madam of innocence and shouted that you wanted to put Madam in a pig cage, did you ever think that you would end up like this?"
Wan Niang pointed at the woman who had shouted the loudest just now and sneered, "Since you care so much about Wu, you might as well marry into the Liang family. When you are put into the pig cage and ascend to heaven, your parents and relatives will probably wake up laughing in their dreams."
"Liang Wanzhou is the heartless one! He is worse than pigs and dogs. You will reap what you sow. Madam wants to leave today because they forced her to do so! Otherwise, which woman would be willing to go to a temple to worship Buddha?"
"If you stay in the Liang family, you will die. If anyone dares to say another word, I will force my wife to die! When Prime Minister Ji gets angry, none of you will be able to escape!"
The onlookers could not argue with Wan Niang, and they did not dare to take the blame for forcing the Ji family's legitimate daughter to death. What if Ji Yunhuan really died in Liang Mansion and Prime Minister Ji held a grudge against them? Even if they could not do it openly, they would have many ways to deal with them secretly.
Ji Yunhuan actually didn't plan to pay attention to these people. Rumors and gossips were nothing. So what if they were ruthless and ungrateful? She couldn't afford to lose a piece of meat.
In her previous life, she cared too much about what others thought of her, and tried her best to prove that she was a good woman and a good wife. But what was the result? She was left with nothing, and died in the well of the Marquis's mansion in the cold winter.
Wan Niang looked around and no one dared to speak. She was very satisfied. She rolled her eyes at Wu and stood behind Ji Yunhuan.
She even stepped on Wu's hand without leaving a trace, and she felt extremely happy when she heard Wu's wails.
Now she was standing, Wu was kneeling, Liang Wanzhou had one arm hanging down, his head lowered, not daring to fart. Even if she could just live happily for this one day, it would be worth it.
Ji Yunhuan didn't even bother to glance at Wu and turned around to get on the carriage.
Wu was so angry that she wanted to slap Ji Yunhuan on the spot!
Liang Wanzhou stopped his mother with a look and asked Wu to continue kneeling and pretending to be pitiful. They couldn't offend Ji Yunhuan now, so they had to endure it no matter how unwilling they were.
A real man can bend and stretch. Liang Wanzhou gritted his teeth, knelt down with a plop, and crawled all the way to Ji Yunhuan, but he didn't dare to get too close to Ji Yunhuan, as he was afraid that Liang Yunye would hit him.
"Madam! Madam, wait for me. Are you going to Fuguang Temple? Wherever you go, I will go. From now on, I will never leave you even a step."
"I know that Madam has suffered a lot of grievances in the Marquis' Mansion. Madam doesn't like it, so it's better not to have this Marquis' Mansion! Sell all the servants in the mansion. From now on, I will only follow Madam and treat her well."
Anyway, the Marquis' Mansion was going to be taken away by the Fugui Gambling House, so he would follow Ji Yunhuan from now on. He didn't believe that Prime Minister Ji would watch his only son-in-law wandering the streets.
Just a little bit of money slipped through the gaps between Ji Shoufu's fingers. He had money and power, so why would he care about the empty house of the Marquis' Mansion?
Ji Yunhuan stopped and saw at a glance what Liang Wanzhou was planning. The two of them had come to the point where they had completely severed their relationship, but Liang Wanzhou still wanted to stick with her and the Ji family.
He is truly shameless and invincible!
"I am going back to the Ji family today. You are guilty now. Are you following me to get my father involved? If it weren't for my father's cleverness, the Ji family would be implicated by you."
"If you still have a trace of conscience, you should reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors instead of embarrassing yourself in public and bringing trouble to the Ji family and me. When the storm is over, you will have your own place to go."
Liang Wanzhou got up from the ground, his eyes shining with great spirit, "I knew that Madam would not ignore me. Madam is running around for me outside, I will reflect on my mistakes behind closed doors and will never hold Madam back."
Ji Yunhuan nodded with satisfaction and got into the carriage with the help of Shiqin.
The carriage sped away in a cloud of dust. Liang Wanzhou looked in the direction where Ji Yunhuan had left until he could no longer see her shadow. He acted affectionately before taking Wu into the mansion.
"My mother is so useless that she has to ask her son to do it herself. Once she knelt, Ji Yunhuan softened her heart. She must care about me."
"She returned to her parents' home at this critical moment, most likely to ask her father-in-law for mercy. With the Ji family here, I will definitely be able to restore the glory of the Marquisate!"
Ji Yunhuan went to Linglong Pavilion first. She planned to place the concubine she brought with her here.
Wan Niang had no objection. She was happy away from the Marquis' Mansion. No one here knew her identity and most of the people who came and went were women, which made her feel at ease.
The peasant girl was willing to stay. She didn't want to go home. What would happen if she went back? She didn't know how much gossip she would have to face. She knelt down and kowtowed to the lady, whispering:
"Sanniang will be Madam's maid from now on. She will do whatever Madam asks her to do."
The peasant girl's surname was Du. She was the third child in the family and had no proper name. Ji Yunhuan did not let her sign a contract, but named her Dujuan, and asked her to stay in Linglong Pavilion from then on.
Jasmine listened to the bright prospects described by Shiqi. As long as she did a good job, she could be promoted to manager and her monthly salary could be increased. If she became the owner of a store in the future, she could earn even more money!
Jasmine counted on her fingers, her eyes sparkling, "How much money can I make this year? I am willing to do it! I am the best at applying makeup and dressing up, and I will definitely make the female guests happy."
Shiqi was in need of staff, so upon hearing this, she pulled Jasmine aside and said with a smile, "We're going to open a new shop soon, and you can even invest in it. There are many ways to make money."
Jasmine took out a few gold bars from her pocket and handed them to Shiqi with a smile, "I saved all of these secretly and changed them into gold to carry with me. I gave them all to my sister to invest in the company. I'm not a fool like Wan Niang. I followed the Marquis for a long time, but in the end, I got nothing except injuries."
Wan Niang was actually a little envious of Moli. As both of them were born as prostitutes, Moli was truly free. However, after leaving the Marquis' Mansion, she was still trapped by the Second Prince.
Unless she dies in this life, she will never be free.
She didn't want to live like this anymore. She didn't want to be manipulated by others anymore. She wanted to live upright in the sun, even if it was only for a short month. Her life would be worth it.
