Chapter 34 Are you crazy, girl?
Everyone in the hall heard what Yu Qinghuan meant. She meant that Mrs. Li was the confidant of the old lady in the Marquis' Mansion, and she didn't dare to interfere with what Mrs. Li said or did.
If Li wanted to find fault with Li Po, she would have to consider whether she could afford to offend the old lady of Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion.
Knowing the eldest lady's attitude towards her natal family, Mrs. Li straightened her back immediately. She was by the side of the old lady, and if she found fault with her, it would be like slapping the old lady in the face. How could a second wife of the Yu family dare to offend the Marquis's Mansion?
Seeing Li's face becoming increasingly ugly, Yu Qinghuan felt relieved. Even if Xie Zhiwen died, he still had the title of a marquis, which was enough to crush someone like Li.
The Li family couldn't afford to offend the Marquis's mansion, but Yu Zhilan, standing by, slammed the table and stood up, "Yu Qinghuan, you actually allowed a lowly slave to humiliate your mother like this? Do you even care about your mother?!"
Yu Qinghuan looked aggrieved and said in an awkward tone, "Second sister, what are you saying? I'm a widower now, and it's hard for me to make a living in the Marquis' Mansion. If you feel that Madam Li has humiliated my mother, then you can go to the Marquis' Mansion and settle the score with my mother-in-law. Why bother to embarrass a widow like me?"
Yu Zhilan sneered, "You lost your husband because you were unlucky. If I had been allowed to marry into the Marquis's mansion, the Marquis would have been safe and sound."
Li scolded coldly, "Lan'er, shut up! How could you say such things to your sister? Why don't you apologize to your sister?"
Yu Zhilan suddenly felt wronged. She had spoken up for her mother out of kindness, but her mother sided with Yu Qinghuan instead. "I don't want it! It was clearly her who indulged the evil servant. She had killed her biological mother before, and now she's killed her man too. What did I say wrong?"
Sang Ru's face looked grim as she looked at Yu Qinghuan worriedly. When she was in the Yu Mansion before, there were many rumors that her wife had a bad fate and killed her mother. Now, the second young lady even said that her wife killed men.
Yu Qinghuan pursed her red lips, her eyes were frosty, and her fingertips were pinched in her palms, turning slightly white due to the force.
"Killing mother...Killing husband?" She sneered and looked at Li. "Mother, are you the one who taught my second sister these words?"
Li gritted her teeth and slapped Yu Zhilan in the face with a "pa!"
If she had a quarrel with Yu Qinghuan today, how could she bring this damn girl back to the Yu Mansion to get married? Zhilan is really something, how could she not control her mouth at this time!
Yu Zhilan covered her face and looked at Li in disbelief. She couldn't understand why Li would hit her!
"Mother, I am your biological daughter, and you actually beat me for her?"
Mrs. Li felt heartbroken when she saw her daughter's aggrieved look, but for the sake of her family, she could only let her suffer for now.
"You said something wrong, so what if I hit you? Why don't you apologize to your sister?
Yu Zhilan's eyes immediately turned red, her face filled with resentment as she glared at Yu Qinghuan, "Yu Qinghuan, don't be so complacent. Wait until I get back home and tell Daddy, and you'll be in trouble!"
As she shouted these words, tears started to flow, and she ran away with her hands covering her face, feeling aggrieved.
Li Shi couldn't even stop her, and with an embarrassed look on her face, she said to Yu Qinghuan, "Huan'er, your sister is young and outspoken, so don't bother with her."
Yu Qinghuan laughed, "Mother, my second sister was only born a few months after me, so how come she is younger now that I'm married?"
Li: "I..."
Yu Qinghuan added, "Mother, I'm not your biological child after all. It's normal for you to favor your younger sister, but why bother putting on such a show in front of me?"
Li knew that if she followed Yu Qinghuan's advice, she would gain nothing, so she immediately changed the subject, "Look at what nonsense you're talking about, kid. I've always treated you like my own daughter. I knew you weren't having a good time in the Marquis' Mansion, so I rushed here immediately because I was worried you'd be wronged!"
Yu Qinghuan smiled faintly and said nothing, wanting to see how long Li could maintain this state.
At this point, Madam Li couldn't wait any longer. "Huan'er, you're not having a good time here at the farm anyway. Why don't you go home with your mother today? Your father hasn't seen you in ages, and he's been missing you the whole time!"
Yu Qinghuan: "Mother, you worry too much. Although my mother-in-law doesn't like me, I am her daughter-in-law after all. I have no worries about food and drink here at the farm, and I can even soak in the hot springs to recuperate. I don't need to worry about whether I am living a good life or not."
When Li heard this, she was surprised to find that there was a hot spring on this farm?
She suddenly felt bitter. She had lived for almost forty years, but she had never even seen what a hot spring looked like. Her husband had taken a bath in one when he went out of town with his colleagues, but he had never taken her with him.
She suppressed the bitterness in her heart and continued to persuade Yu Qinghuan with a smile, "You are still young and in your prime. Do you really want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of your life?"
Hearing this, Yu Qinghuan actually laughed, "Mother, I don't understand what you mean. If I leave the Marquis' Mansion, where can I, a widow, go?"
Li coughed lightly, looked at Yu Qinghuan, and glanced at Li Pozi, signaling her to let everyone go out first before she could talk.
Yu Qinghuan picked up the newly served hot tea and took two sips. "Mother, please speak up if you have anything to say. There's nothing that people in this village won't tolerate."
Sang Ru, who was standing by, was concentrating very hard, fearing that his wife might not have enough concentration and be fooled by Li.
Mrs. Li didn't dare to leave. If the eldest lady was instigated and ran away, she would not be able to report to the old lady.
Seeing that no one left, Li was at a loss. She gritted her teeth and thought that even if the people in the Marquis' Mansion knew about it, what would it matter? Yu Qinghuan was a daughter of the Yu family. Now that she had lost her husband, as long as she wanted to remarry, the Marquis' Mansion would have no reason to stop her.
"Huan'er, I've discussed this with your father. He feels that you've been staying in the Marquis' Mansion without a man to love you. I don't know how you're going to get by in the future, so I'm thinking of taking you back and looking for a good marriage for you."
When Li said this, Mrs. Li and Sang Ru's faces changed.
This Li family actually came to persuade the first lady to remarry!
Yu Qinghuan had a smile on her face, but her heart was filled with the pain of her past life. She only regretted that she could not skin Li alive to vent her hatred from her past life.
"I wonder what kind of good marriage it is?"
When Li heard her ask this, she immediately assumed that she was thinking of remarrying, and her heart was immediately filled with joy. "Of course, it should be someone of similar age, with a huge fortune, who will ensure you have plenty of food and drink for the rest of your life!"
Yu Qinghuan was silent for a moment. Just when Mrs. Li and Sang Ru were about to think she was about to be tempted, she suddenly spoke, "It sounds like a good match."
Li's smile was about to overflow, but Yu Qinghuan changed the subject:
"Mother, please leave this good marriage to my second sister. I am a widow who has killed her husband, how can I commit murder again?"
Li's smile froze on her face. "Huan'er, your sister is still young, so we should focus on you first..."
With a loud "clang"!
Yu Qinghuan smashed the teacup in his hand hard at Li's feet!
The scattered porcelain pieces and tea hit the edge of Li's skirt. Li's screams echoed in the hall. Her face turned pale as she yelled at Yu Qinghuan:
"You crazy girl!?"
