Chapter 281: The Case at the Back House (Part 2)



But we can't just keep silent about it. If that happens, the arrogant and mean woman will not say that the Anping Marquis's Mansion is being polite, but will think that their family is easy to bully. Su Nuannuan naturally didn't want to leave such an impression on the other party. She smiled and said proudly, "Yes, Madam was really wrong at the beginning. If you marry Sister Yun to another mansion as the main wife, wouldn't you get this kind of consideration?"

"you……"

Xu Ranyun's mother Jiang's face flushed immediately, but she was so angry that she could not say anything: Who told you to send your daughter to Anping Marquis's Mansion as a concubine? No matter how much a concubine is a concubine, how dare you dream of skipping the main wife and getting the same treatment as the main wife? What kind of daydream are you having?

"Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law is pregnant and has been in a very strange mood these days. Please don't bother with her."

Madam Yang explained calmly, but there was a hint of smile in her eyes. For the first time, she felt that it was good for her daughter-in-law to be a little arrogant. This Jiang was just an old concubine in the Earl of Chengming's mansion. What was she? She came to her and acted so arrogantly. Just because her daughter died in her own home? It wasn't her fault.

Jiang was full of anger, but she didn't dare to be really presumptuous. She snorted coldly and stopped talking. Duan Tingxuan said, "Madam, mother-in-law and uncle, please sit behind the screen. Nuannuan and I will take care of everything."

Madam Yang said, "Okay." Then she looked at Jiang and Master Xu and said, "Shall we go behind the screen?"

"Okay, I'll see how you deal with it. Yun'er is, after all, the girl of the Earl's Mansion. She can't die in vain." Jiang stood up, glanced at Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan gloomily, flicked her handkerchief, and went behind the screen with Madam Yang and Master Xu.

"Who is this?" Su Nuannuan was really surprised. She shook her head and sat down with Duan Tingxuan. Duan Tingxuan said to the maid who had been standing in the hall, "Go and call Fengxian Cuiping over."

After a while, Fengxian and Cuiping came in, supporting each other. Their eyes were swollen from crying. They knelt down to greet Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan, their hearts beating like a rabbit. Especially after they didn't hear the two masters speak for a long time, they became more panicked and even regretted their rashness yesterday.

"I know how loyal you two are to Grandma Yun."

Duan Tingxuan did as he said before. He handed the initiative to Su Nuannuan. His wife was blowing tea slowly and leisurely. It took a long time for her to speak casually. As soon as she spoke, Fengxian Cuiping shuddered. He secretly gave her a thumbs up and thought it was a pity that Nuannuan didn't work in the officialdom. She was a master at attacking people's hearts.

As expected, Cuiping Fengxian quickly said modestly: "I don't deserve your praise..."

Before he could finish, Su Nuannuan sneered, "You don't dare to take my compliment? So, your loyalty to Grandma Yun is not that great?"

"ah!"

The two girls screamed at the same time. They didn't know how to respond for a moment, but Su Nuannuan finally raised her eyes, looked at them with a sharp gaze, and said coldly: "You are really loyal to Grandma Yun. But you have no feelings for Anping Marquis Mansion. In order to redress your grandma, you would rather put the Marquis Mansion in an unjust situation. You are really your grandma's good servants. You are ungrateful people in our Marquis Mansion."

Fengxian and Cuiping were so scared that they sat on the ground, but they saw Su Nuannuan with a gloomy face, and said in a stern voice: "Do you think that you have made a contribution by exposing our Marquis' Mansion, and after your grandmother Yun's funeral, you can return to the Earl's Mansion for this merit, and then everyone will regard you as meritorious people, and then the Marquis' Mansion will be unable to do anything to you?"

"No... no, Madam, please understand. We dare not have such thoughts..."

Fengxian and Cuiping were so scared that they got up and knelt down, kowtowed and shouted desperately. Suddenly, Su Nuannuan slammed the table and said sternly, "Don't scream and wail in front of me. You know my temper. This won't work on me. You said you didn't have such thoughts, so let me ask you, why didn't you tell your master about your grievances, but waited until the people from Chengming Earl's Mansion came? Isn't this a conclusion that the Marquis' Mansion has bad intentions? Two slaves who regard the Marquis' Mansion as an enemy, dare to say that you don't have such thoughts? Dare to say that you are not ungrateful?"

Fengxian and Cuiping didn't know how to explain for a moment, they just cried and didn't say anything, and suddenly they heard Su Nuannuan shouting, "Come here, drag these two ungrateful slaves out, and beat them to death in front of all the servants, so as to serve as a warning to those who have ulterior motives."

As soon as the words came out, not only Fengxian Cuiping was paralyzed by fear, but even Duan Tingxuan was startled. Suddenly, Jiang shouted from behind the screen: "What's the logic? Instead of seeking justice for my daughter, you want to punish her maid..."

Before she could finish, Su Nuannuan said coldly, "Auntie, please be patient. Isn't the purpose of your coming here to find out the truth about Grandma Yun's death? I will tell you the truth, but I will never tolerate these two traitorous girls who deliberately stir up trouble to destroy the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion. Let's put it one way and the other. Auntie, you are not going to interfere in the internal affairs of my Anping Marquis' Mansion, right?"

These words silenced Jiang. Then Master Xu sighed softly and said something to Jiang in a low voice. Then, there was silence behind the screen as before.

Here, Su Nuannuan turned to Fengxian and Cuiping, and said with a sneer on her lips: "You are really confused. Even if Grandma Yun is dead, she is still a ghost of the Marquis' Mansion, and you two girls are also people of the Marquis' Mansion. You are still delusional that you used to be the maids of the Earl's Mansion, and you think you can return to the Earl's Mansion after framing the Marquis' Mansion. Don't you think that there is no such reason from ancient times to the present. I really don't know if you have water in your brains? You can actually come up with such a crazy idea to clear yourselves."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shouted, "Come here, drag them away. Unless these two girls confess, just beat them to death. They served Grandma Yun well when they were alive, and now they continue to be loyal to their master in the underworld. I'm sure Grandma Yun will be happy in her netherworld."

This is burial alive. Jiang was originally very angry, but after hearing this, she thought to herself: Although Su Mengnuan's behavior is extremely hateful, after all, these two sentences are not bad. My girl is all alone in the underground, and with these two girls going down to serve her, maybe she won't be lonely.

As soon as she thought of this, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, but refused to say another word even if she was beaten to death. Here, a maid came forward and dragged Fengxian and Cuiping to the door. As they were about to leave, there was no sound from behind the screen. The two maids knew that their plan had failed. Thinking of the cruelty of the eldest grandmother in the past, and seeing the expressionless face of the prince, they knew that if they didn't tell the truth, they would definitely die today.

The fear in her heart completely overwhelmed her rationality, and Feng Xian shouted, "Grandma, spare my life. I dare not have any second thoughts. I was ordered by someone..."

"return."

Su Nuannuan heaved a sigh of relief. This was what she had been waiting for Feng Xian to say.
