Madam Yan looked at Jiang Chuwei with an appreciative gaze.
I never expected Miss Jiang to have such a magnanimous spirit at such a young age, not wanting to get into arguments with others.
Many troubles are caused by pointless arguments.
Madam Yan also heard what was said earlier.
But while the younger generation might not mind, Madam Yan couldn't afford to be indifferent.
Gossiping about her son behind his back—whether you're the Duke of Su or the Duke of Zheng, you can't just let it go like that.
Madam Yan walked over and stood in front of the two women: "I didn't expect that you two ladies would care so much about my son. I, as his mother, am not as concerned as you two ladies."
I wonder if the two noble ladies in the palace will reprimand you two for meddling in other people's business like gossipy old women!
Madam Yan quietly looked at the two ladies.
Her voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of many people.
Only after hearing that it was because of discussions about Prince Yan did Madam Yan loudly rebuke the two dukes' wives.
No one found it strange then.
Madam Yan loved her son dearly and would never allow anyone to say a bad word about him.
Even the Duchess of the State is not an option.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the two duchesses were utterly humiliated.
This is a blatant threat from Madam Yan.
Everyone knows that Madam Yan's complaints can't reach the palace, but Princess Xiang's complaints can reach the Emperor.
Princess Xiang was very protective of her sister-in-law.
If this gets back to the ears of the nobles in the palace, they will inevitably be reprimanded.
Seeing that Madam Yan was angry, the two did not dare to make a scene.
Madam Zheng gritted her teeth and apologized, "I'm sorry for offending Prince Yan."
Madam Sun quickly apologized, "Madam Yan, I'm sorry."
Madam Yan said coldly, "Miss Jiang is the one who should apologize. Having a mistress kept under her husband's nose—if your daughter encountered such a husband, wouldn't she divorce him?"
"You!" Madam Zheng was furious.
She only said a few words in private, why bring it up in public?
Seeing that Madam Yan had no intention of letting the matter rest, Madam Sun quickly apologized to Jiang Chuwei: "Miss Jiang! I didn't mean to embarrass you."
Everyone in the capital knew that the Duke of Su was short-tempered and often had scandalous stories of beating his wife and children.
Madam Sun was unwilling to let these things get back to the mansion.
She'll be the one who suffers in the end.
However, Madam Zheng saw that Princess Jin was looking at her with a face full of disapproval.
Madam Zheng immediately put on a smile: "I was rash just now. Miss Jiang is of such extraordinary beauty that she cannot tolerate such humiliation."
You withdrew in time, and your ex-husband was reported and got his comeuppance.
Miss Jiang, who miraculously survived, is destined for good fortune.
Everyone: ...
Is this an apology? This is putting Ms. Jiang in a very difficult position, implying that Jiang Chuwei is reporting her ex-husband.
That's indeed the case, but outsiders are unaware of it.
Jiang Chuwei smiled enigmatically: "It doesn't matter. I never care what outsiders say. Life is for oneself, not for others to see. I just hope that Madam Zheng will have the same good fortune as me in the future. After surviving such a calamity, good things are sure to follow!"
Jiang Chuwei looked at her with a half-smile.
Everyone was watching the show.
Lady Zheng, relying on Consort Zheng's favor in the palace, often spoke ill of others.
We've run into a tough opponent today.
Madam Zheng was so angry that her face turned pale and then red. Wasn't this cursing the entire Zheng family and Pingyang Marquis family to die out as well?
But they couldn't find anything wrong with Jiang Chuwei.
She could only grit her teeth and say, "Miss Jiang is right."
Jiang Chuwei didn't say much. She greeted Madam Yan again and walked towards the garden with Princess Qingning.
Madam Zheng's attempt to steal a chicken backfired spectacularly, leaving her utterly humiliated.
Meeting Princess Jin's gaze, Madam Zheng gave her a warning look.
This matter must not be reported to the Imperial Concubine; her sister-in-law would not give her, her elder sister-in-law, any face.
Princess Jin ignored her mother. She was not very bright and liked to make enemies everywhere. Sooner or later, Prince Jin would be implicated by her.
Today, Princess Jin has an even more important task.
The King of Jin told her that she was only allowed to succeed and not to fail.
Taking advantage of her mother Jiang Chuwei's unpleasant situation, she quickened her pace to catch up with Jiang Chuwei.
"Miss Jiang!" Princess Jin approached with a warm smile.
