Chapter 571: Mo Yao harmed Mingzhu but could not atone for his crime

It was also at this time that Jiao saw Yu Chongjie and Mao.

Jiao's anger rose again!

The elder brother and his wife were all here, and they just watched Zhuzhu kneeling there and being punished?

Don’t you know how to persuade their grandmother?

Jiao couldn't help but glare at Yu Chongjie and Mao.

Mao lowered her eyes and Yu Chongjie smiled bitterly.

The old lady of Duke Xin's expression became even colder: "Mingzhu, Qiuli was instructed by you to sow discord between your eldest brother and your eldest sister-in-law in your eldest brother's inner courtyard all day long. Do you admit this?"

The Jiao family was stunned, opened their mouths slightly, and even doubted their ears.

Who? Zhuzhu?

Who is trying to stir up trouble with whom?

Jiao looked at Mao and Yu Chongjie somewhat bewilderedly.

Yu Mingzhu's expression was even more bewildered than Jiao's. She was so aggrieved that she was about to cry: "Grandmother, how can I explain this...Qiu Li, Qiu Li, I saw that my sister-in-law has not been feeling well since giving birth, so I specially found a maid who can do massage. If this maid did not do well in any way, I admit that it was my fault. But if you say that you were instructed by me to sow discord between my eldest brother and my eldest sister-in-law, I, your granddaughter, will never be able to defend myself!"

Jiao also spoke anxiously: "Mother, is there something wrong? How could a good child like Zhuzhu go to sow discord between her eldest brother and his wife?"

When Jiao said this, she suddenly realized, "Is it the maid Qiuli! She did something wrong and was afraid of taking the blame, so she pushed the blame onto Zhuzhu?!"

Jiao was so angry that her eyebrows were raised, "Qiu Li, you damned girl!"

The old lady of Duke Xin watched coldly as Jiao and Yu Mingzhu made their various excuses, but she had actually made up her mind and just watched calmly.

There is a saying that goes "the more you talk, the more mistakes you make." The more Yu Mingzhu defends himself, the more mistakes he reveals.

Especially what she said before, that she wanted Qiu Li to talk more about Yu Chongjie for the sake of Mao's health.

ridiculous!

If Yu Mingzhu really wanted to do good for Mao, with her keen mind, why wouldn't she find out what the conflict between Mao and Yu Chongjie was? What if Mao's unhappiness was because of Yu Chongjie?

And isn't this a very likely thing to happen between husband and wife?

If we mention Yu Chongjie more, isn't it very likely that this will only make Mao's condition worse?

Even Yu Chongjie, who favors Mingzhu, feels something is wrong despite his filter towards his sister.

He was silent.

Yu Mingzhu finally admitted with tears in her eyes that she was wrong for not thinking it through.

She knelt in front of Mao and said, "Sister-in-law, this is all my fault. I shouldn't be so self-righteous. I accept your beatings and scoldings. Please don't get angry anymore, or you'll hurt yourself."

Mao suddenly stood up and avoided Yu Mingzhu's greeting.

Her sister-in-law believed that she had never done anything wrong to her since she married into the family. Why, why did she harm her like this!

For the first time, Mao showed open disgust towards Yu Mingzhu.

She whispered, "You don't have to be so polite to me, little aunt. You are my dearest child, and I will feel bad for you."

Jiao also sighed: "Zhuzhu, your sister-in-law is a sensible lady from a well-off family, she won't blame you..."

At this moment, a childish voice rang out: "Madam, this is your family affair, and I shouldn't interfere. But I just took Madam Mao's pulse, and I want to give you some advice as a doctor - if you really want to do good for Madam Mao, don't let Miss Yu hang around her. Although Madam Mao's body has recovered after giving birth, she has been depressed. Thanks to Miss Yu's maid, Madam Mao's depression has affected her health. This is no small matter."

Xing Xing's voice was calm, but as soon as she said this, Yu Chongjie's expression changed.

Yu Mingzhu suddenly turned her head and looked at Xingxing, and for a moment she even forgot to control her facial expression!

She actually didn't notice Xing Xing who was sitting silently in the corner!

In other words, all her misbehavior and grievances were seen clearly by Yu Xingxing, whom she hated from the bottom of her heart? !

For a moment, Yu Mingzhu's face was filled with horror!

The old lady of Duke Xin had been keeping an eye on Xing Xing. As luck would have it, she happened to see this expression on Yu Mingzhu's face!

The old lady of Duke Xin's eyes widened slightly and she took a breath of cool air.

What did she see?!

How could Yu Mingzhu have such a malicious and hateful expression towards Xing Xing? !

Although the resentful look only flashed by for a moment, the old lady of Duke Xin believed that she was not yet old enough to have blurry eyes, so she saw it clearly!

At that moment, something inexplicably came to the mind of the old lady of Duke Xin.

There is a bird called the azalea. It lays its eggs in other birds' nests and lets the other birds incubate the eggs for it.

That would be fine, but after the azalea chicks are hatched, they will instinctively push the other unhatched eggs out of the nest and let them fall to the ground!

The hostility of the young azaleas towards the young in the original nest is ingrained in their instincts!

The old lady of Duke Xin was horrified and forgot to speak for a moment!

Jiao frowned. She instinctively wanted to get close to Xingxing, but Xingxing's words made her feel awkward: "...Xiang Jun, Zhuzhu is Chongjie's sister. How can we avoid this?"

While Jiao was talking, Yu Mingzhu had already calmed down. She held Jiao's hand pitifully and said, "Mother, don't say that. I made a mistake. I am willing to atone for my sins and go to the Baiyun Temple in the southern suburbs to pray for my eldest sister-in-law. I will stay there for a month."

When Jiao heard this, her expression changed instantly, and her heartache completely took over!

Baiyun Temple is located in the mountains, and the living conditions there are very harsh, but it has some roots with the royal family, and many times, women who have made mistakes were sent there to reflect on themselves.

Her Zhuzhu was so kind that she even took the initiative to ask Baiyun Temple to pray for Mao! Just for this reason, how could Zhuzhu deliberately harm Mao?

Jiao was heartbroken: "No, I won't--"

Before Jiao finished saying "I don't allow it", the old lady of Duke Xin, who had been silent the whole time, spoke calmly: "Since Mingzhu has this intention, then go tomorrow. Fuqiu is not feeling well, Mingzhu must pray for your sister-in-law in the Taoist temple. When your sister-in-law is better, I will send someone to pick you up."

Yu Mingzhu's expression suddenly changed!

She proposed to go to Baiyun Temple to pray for blessings, not because she really wanted to go, but just to retreat in order to advance! But she never thought that her grandmother would directly make the decision!

What else is there to say? Wait until the eldest sister-in-law is better, then send someone to pick her up. Doesn't this mean that if Mao Fuqi is still not well, let her stay in Baiyun Temple to reflect on herself? !

Jiao's face also turned extremely ugly. She said in panic: "Mother, Baiyun Temple is not a place for a little girl to stay..."

The old lady of Duke Xin said calmly, "The late emperor's consort had prayed for the late emperor in Baiyun Temple. Is Mingzhu more noble than the late emperor's consort? Besides, the current state of Fuqiu's body is mostly Mingzhu's fault. Since she took the initiative to pray for her sister-in-law's health, I think she also has the intention of redeeming her sins. As a mother, don't make Mingzhu unable to redeem herself and feel guilty day and night."

"Mingzhu, don't you think so?"
