Chapter 27 Farce



Ah Man and Ah Qiao were worried about the excitement of tomorrow, so they didn't sleep well all night and woke up the next day with blue eyes.

Jiang Si seemed to be in high spirits and dressed neatly to pay his respects to Cixin Hall.

Old Madam Feng also didn't sleep well.

People tend to be superficial as they get older, and it gets even worse when they have something on their mind. Moreover, she has been feeling a dull pain in her left eye ever since she had that dream.

When she saw the roses with cheeks as red as ginger and as if covered with dewdrops, Madam Feng felt uncomfortable.

If this girl hadn't made such a fuss last night, she wouldn't have tossed and turned like a pancake all night.

A little girl is now using her dowry to negotiate conditions with her. Won't she cause a big uproar in the future?

Old Madam Feng had the idea of ​​going back to teach Jiang Si a lesson, but she showed no sign of it.

Second wife Xiao arrived earlier than Jiang Si with her two concubines. She was even more unhappy when she saw Jiang Si being more charming than Hua Jiao. However, when she thought of what she sent her trusted maid to tell Mrs. Liu last night, the corners of her mouth curled up again.

There will be some excitement soon, she wants to see how Jiang Si will step down!

"Okay, let's all go." Old Madam Feng brought the tea.

Mrs. Xiao led the fifth girl Jiang Li and the sixth girl Jiang Pei to stand up and take their leave. Mrs. Guo, the third wife, also stood up with the third girl Jiang Qiao.

The group walked out one after another. Although Jiang Si was the daughter of the eldest wife, she was the younger generation, so she naturally walked at the end.

The young girl walking beside the third wife, Mrs. Guo, suddenly tilted her head and raised her eyebrows at Jiang Si, with a hint of provocation.

Jiang Si looked at Jiang Qiao and sighed secretly.

The Dongping Marquis's Mansion is divided into three branches. The third master Jiang is a bastard's son and is usually very low-key. The third wife Guo, as a bastard's daughter-in-law, is also quiet in public. Only their daughter Jiang Qiao is lively and talkative.

This is not surprising. Although Mr. Jiang San was born out of wedlock, he only has one son and one daughter. Jiang Qiao also grew up in a honeypot.

Jiang Qiao, who grew up in a honeypot, has always been at odds with Jiang Si.

Among the six girls in the Bo's Mansion, two are of the same age. Jiang Qiao is a few months older than Jiang Si. It is normal for them to compete with each other since childhood because of their similar age. The reason for the quarrel between the two is because of the marriage matter of the Anguo Mansion.

When the mountain collapsed, Duke Anguo was rescued by Jiang Ancheng and Jiang Sanlaoye. Then Duke Anguo proposed to marry the girl of the Dongping Marquis, but the marriage fell to Jiang Si.

Jiang Qiao was a few months older than Jiang Si, so she was naturally uncomfortable. But Jiang Si at that time was soft-hearted and never lenient with others. Once when they were having an argument, he said: Who said your father is not your uncle?

It was these words that made Jiang Qiao completely upset. From then on, she was too lazy to maintain even the superficial harmony with Jiang Si whenever she met him.

But Jiang Si always remembered that when she became a widow less than a year after marrying into the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, she had heard countless gossips and was prepared to be laughed at by Jiang Qiao.

Jiang Qiao, who had never been nice to her, gave her a hug.

Thinking of this, Jiang Si smiled brightly at Jiang Qiao.

Jiang Qiao was stunned.

Jiang Si, who usually looked down on others, actually smiled at her? Not a sneer, not a mockery, but a normal smile?

There must be a conspiracy!

Jiang Qiao's expression froze, and she quickly withdrew her gaze. However, she was unwilling to lose the momentum, so she walked behind the Third Madam Guo with her head held high.

A group of people came out of the gate of Ci Xin Hall in a mighty stream, and a figure suddenly rushed over.

The incident happened so suddenly that everyone was stunned for a moment and stood there, forgetting to move.

The figure was coming towards Jiang Si. Ah Man, who was following behind Jiang Si, kicked up and landed lightly on the ground.

The figure suddenly fell to the ground at Jiang Si's feet, with the shoe print on his face, and looked up to beg: "Fourth Miss, please have mercy on me and give my family a chance to live. I kowtow to you——"

Only then did everyone see clearly that the figure was actually Mrs. Liu.

At this time, all the people from the three families were present, and the looks they gave Jiang Si suddenly became subtle.

There is no wall that is impenetrable. After Jiang Si’s incident last night, everyone in the mansion heard the news.

Jiang Si looked at Mrs. Liu kneeling at his feet and begging coldly, without saying a word.

"Fourth Miss, I was blinded by greed and offended you in a moment of confusion. I beg you to be magnanimous and just let me go. I know I was wrong and I will never dare to do it again..." Mrs. Liu raised her hands and slapped her mouth, and soon her old face turned into a steamed bun.

Except for those who just came out of Ci Xin Hall, the servants passing by all stopped quietly to watch the excitement, and whispers were heard.

"Mrs. Liu is really a bit pitiful."

"Yes, although Mrs. Liu made a mistake, it is still too tragic that the whole family was driven to the manor like this."

The servants naturally formed a group. No matter how Mrs. Liu behaved, they couldn't help but feel sympathy when they saw her whole family being driven out like this.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouths apart!" Ah Man said angrily.

A smile flashed across Second Madam Xiao's eyes, and she finally let out a lot of the anger she had been holding in all night.

After what Mrs. Liu did, no matter what the reason was, Jiang Si would be branded as mean in the servants' minds, and once this reputation spreads, there will be no chance of a good marriage.

What better counterattack could there be than to ruin a woman's good marriage?

Mrs. Liu's cries were so loud that even the maids in Cixin Hall were peeking out.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Feng, who had been resting her eyes, suddenly opened her eyes and asked Ah Fu, "What's the commotion outside?"

Ah Fu hurried out to inquire, and soon came back to report: "I don't know how Mrs. Liu came here, and she is crying and begging for mercy from the fourth lady."

Madam Feng hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand and said, "Help me go and take a look."

"Madam, the old lady is coming out." The maid standing beside the second wife, Mrs. Xiao, whispered.

Xiao raised his eyebrows.

The old lady came out just in time. After seeing this farce, she must be even more annoyed with that damn girl Jiang Si.

Mrs. Liu noticed that Old Madam Feng had come out and quickly glanced at Mrs. Xiao.

Xiao nodded imperceptibly.

Mrs. Liu suddenly stood up and shouted, "Since the fourth lady won't forgive me, I will die as atonement for my crime. I only hope that the fourth lady can spare my family—"

As Mrs. Liu spoke, she lowered her head and bumped into the courtyard wall.

"Ah——" Many people closed their eyes in fear, but there was no expected screaming, instead it was eerily quiet.

When everyone opened their eyes, they saw Ah Man stepping on the hem of Mrs. Liu's skirt. Mrs. Liu was crawling on the ground in an extremely indecent posture, revealing her underwear with a hole in it.

After the eerie silence, there was a burst of laughter, and someone said, "Mrs. Liu is very frugal."

The crowd laughed even louder.

Ah Man still didn't lift his feet. He looked down at Mrs. Liu and sneered, "If you want to die, can't you secretly find a crooked tree? If you scare our girl, you will be responsible?"

This old bastard, no wonder the girl told her to keep a close eye on him if she shows up, it turns out he's up to something.
