Chapter 2169: Threatening Madam Yuan
"Young Master Xu and Miss Wen have been engaged for so long, and I wonder when they will get married! This has dragged on for so long, and bad rumors have spread. People say that there is a problem in the relationship between Young Master Xu and Miss Wen!" Madam Yuan said. Her tone was obviously sarcastic, but she pretended to be concerned. She was so hypocritical.
However, Madam Xu had already gotten used to it, so she was not angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Madam Yuan, you are worrying too much. Their relationship is fine! It's just that Jinglin and Siyi are both busy, so the wedding date has been postponed."
Hearing the address of Madam Xu, Gu Ning knew that the other party was Madam Yuan, the woman that Zhao Xiaoxi was talking about.
In this case, if the other party's attitude is worse, she can also act according to the circumstances.
In fact, Madam Yuan’s eldest daughter Yuan Yiyan likes Xu Jinglin, so the Yuan family also intends to marry into the Xu family.
Although the Xu family and the Leng family have a good relationship, Xu Jinglin is the eldest grandson of the Xu family and the heir to the Jinling Group, so if they can marry into a marriage alliance with Xu Jinglin, Xu Jinglin should support them.
In this way, they can also divide the power of the Xu family and reduce some of the power of the Leng family.
But! Xu Jinglin doesn't like Yuan Yiyan, he even hates her.
Even if he didn't hate her, he would not be with Yuan Yiyan because of his family's stance.
However, later on, Yuan Yiyan actually drugged him in order to be with him. Fortunately, by chance, he and Wen Siyi had sex, and then they confirmed their relationship.
Of course, originally Xu Jinglin and Wen Siyi liked each other, but the family background of the Wen family and the Xu family was quite different, so Wen Siyi always felt inferior, so she never accepted Xu Jinglin's pursuit.
But after this happened, she was willing to have a relationship with Xu Jinglin.
It was a blessing in disguise that Xu Jinglin did not pursue the matter. However, even though he did not pursue it, the Xu family was still very angry with the Yuan family.
"Really?" Madam Yuan looked unconvinced. Actually, she didn't really disbelieve it. She just pretended to be unconvinced to annoy Madam Xu and Yan Min.
They were indeed a little unhappy in their hearts, but they were not so fragile that they would be annoyed.
"Yes! By the way, I heard that your Yuan Yiyan is getting a divorce recently. What happened to her that she had to get a divorce?" Madam Xu asked with concern. But was she really concerned? Of course not. She just brought it up on purpose to embarrass Madam Yuan.
Madam Xu never took the initiative to talk about other people's faults, but that didn't mean she was easy to bully. As the mistress of the Xu family, how could she be easily bullied? It's just that if others don't offend me, I won't offend others. But since I've been bullied, I will naturally fight back.
As for what happened to Yuan Yiyan that led to the divorce... when the news of the divorce came out, the reason naturally came to light as well.
The reason for the spread was that Yuan Yiyan was caught cheating on her husband, but the Yuan family suppressed the matter, so it was not spread more widely. Despite this, Madam Xu still heard about it.
When Madam Yuan heard this, her face suddenly darkened and looked extremely ugly. She knew very well that Madam Xu was deliberately humiliating her!
"This is my family affair, so please don't bother Madam Xu to worry about it." Madam Yuan said coldly.
Madam Yuan was still very angry about this matter. You said that he cheated and he cheated, and he was caught in bed. Although the matter was suppressed, it couldn't stop others from knowing it!
Therefore, she received a lot of strange looks during this period, but many people were afraid of the Yuan family and didn't dare to say anything.
However, Mrs. Yuan had the idea of cheating, so she cheated. It can be seen how selfish she is! If the person who cheated was her son-in-law, I am afraid I don't know how he would be blamed.
"Since Madam Yuan doesn't like others talking about your family affairs, then please Madam Yuan talk about other people's family affairs. Madam Yuan, don't bother to worry about other people's family affairs." Madam Xu fought back. There was no reason why she could talk about other people's family affairs but others couldn't talk about hers. This was too double standards.
Hearing this, Madam Yuan felt extremely ashamed. It was obvious that Madam Xu was talking about what she had just said about Xu Jinglin and Wen Siyi.
"Hmph! I don't have the leisure to meddle in other people's affairs!" Madam Yuan said with disdain.
Then, Madam Xu and Madam Yuan stopped talking.
At this time, Gu Ning said: "A strange murder case happened a few days ago. A man named Song Yang was killed in the park, but no trace of the murderer was found. Then many netizens opened their minds and said that Song Yang might have been killed by a ghost, otherwise why couldn't he find any trace..."
As soon as Gu Ning finished speaking, he heard a "clang" sound from the neighboring table. The cup in Madam Yuan's hand fell onto the table, and the liquid in the cup also spilled onto the table.
Moreover, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.
Because no one on Madam Xu's side knew about the relationship between Madam Yuan and this man named Song Yang, they didn't think too much about Madam Yuan's misbehavior.
However, Madam Yuan Er and Madam Peng knew that Song Yang was the son-in-law of Madam Yuan Da's relative, but they did not think too much about Madam Yuan Da's misconduct. They just thought that others mentioned the word "ghost" which made her uncomfortable.
Not to mention that Madam Yuan felt uncomfortable when she heard the word "ghost", even Madam Yuan Er and Madam Peng felt uncomfortable when they heard it.
"These netizens really have wild imaginations. How could there be ghosts in this world?" Yan Min said with amusement.
Madam Xu also didn't believe in ghosts and gods: "Yes! Song Yang must have offended someone and was killed by someone."
As long as the other party is powerful and has made all the necessary arrangements, it is normal for the police to not find any clues.
"This Song Yang is indeed not a good person. I heard that he once had a girlfriend named Zhao Xiaoxi, but later he abandoned Zhao Xiaoxi because he hooked up with a rich family's daughter. After that, Zhao Xiaoxi disappeared. Some people speculated that she might have been killed by Song Yang! So it is possible that Zhao Xiaoxi's ghost came back for revenge!" Gu Ning said, and he said this deliberately for Madam Yuan to hear.
Sure enough, when she heard Zhao Xiaoxi's name and Zhao Xiaoxi's death, Madam Yuan's face became even uglier because of her guilty conscience, and she felt a chill unconsciously on her back.
Although she didn't kill Zhao Xiaoxi herself, she arranged for someone to kill him, so she was also the one who killed Zhao Xiaoxi, so of course she would feel guilty.
