Chapter 157 This is what you deserve.
Old Mrs. Xu watched Mrs. Cui collapse, scream and shout, acting hysterically and like a madman, with no expression on her face.
If it weren't for that damn girl in her family being vigilant, it would be them, the grandparents and grandchildren, who would have gone crazy.
Since you dare to harm others, don't blame others for chopping off your hands.
This is what you deserve.
It's just that I feel so happy.
The most important thing right now is to let Mrs. Cui take full responsibility for the matter and not involve her granddaughter in it.
"You should know whether I'm talking nonsense or not." Old Madam Xu said calmly, "Xie, you are really confused. Even if the head of the family is not at home and you are lonely in your boudoir, you can't put your hands on your nephew. If you do this, you will bring shame to the Cui family and the Xie family as well."
Mrs. Cui was so angry and embarrassed by these words that her whole body was shaking.
She understood what Old Lady Xu meant. She wanted her to take responsibility for the matter and attribute the matter to her loneliness in seclusion and her affair with her nephew.
"No... no..." Madam Cui widened her eyes and shook her head vigorously. "That's not the case. That's not the case. Someone must have harmed me. It's..."
"Xie." Old Madam Xu said in a very cold tone, "Think carefully before you speak."
Mrs. Cui paused at the tip of her tongue, her lips trembling, and she couldn't say the next words.
Saying that Cui Si harmed her?
But what evidence is there?
She was the one who transferred the servants in the courtyard. As for the Chinese medicine, Mrs. Cui drank it herself in order to clear herself of any involvement. Cui Si also made tea in public, which only proved that the water she delivered was drugged.
Moreover, Xie Luo’s arrival was not invited by Cui Si.
Mrs. Cui clenched her teeth tightly.
She thought that her plans were well-connected, and as long as she arranged them one by one and carried them out smoothly, no one would be able to blame her after something happened.
She could only blame herself for the coincidence; Cui Si deserved the bad luck.
But she never expected that her chain of events would also block her own path. She could not find any evidence that Cui Si had harmed her. She even found that Cui Si had really done nothing but send someone to her room when Xie Lu came...
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
The consequences of her careful planning for Cui Si fell entirely on herself.
And she might be even worse off than Cui Si.
Cui Si lost her innocence, and at most her current marriage would not be completed, and she would have to marry Xie Luo, the playboy.
And she lost her innocence... She was married, and the wife of the head of the Cui family. If she lost her innocence, the Cui family would definitely regard her as a disgrace and would not tolerate her. She didn't know whether poisoned wine or white silk would be waiting for her.
If he was luckier, he might be able to save his life, but he would be abandoned by the Cui family in some unknown corner and live out his life alone.
And her children, because of a mother like her, would be disliked by their father and the clan, leading to unhappy marriages and a ruined future. If Patriarch Cui were to marry again, it would be even worse...
"No! No! Absolutely not!" Mrs. Cui thought of this and her emotions, which had been slightly under control, collapsed again. "This cannot be! It shouldn't be like this!"
"It shouldn't be like this? Then what should it be like?" When Mrs. Xu heard this, her face darkened.
It seems that he has no regrets at all. He is only thinking about the fact that his plan failed and he was outmaneuvered by others. He does not know that he was wrong and should not have done this.
Old Mrs. Xu shook her head in her heart. Perhaps when the name card incident happened last time, she should have known that Cui Yun had gone crazy, and Madam Cui had gone crazy as well.
For the sake of her daughter, she had long forgotten that she was the wife of the head of the Cui family and that she had the responsibility to take care of the clan members, especially the female members.
The last time she plotted to have the women of the clan serve as dowry or concubines for her daughter, this time she wanted to destroy the innocence of the women of the clan in order to marry them into her family.
How can such a clan mistress...such a clan leader's wife be worthy of being the clan leader's wife of the Cui clan?
If she were there, the Cui family would probably fall apart sooner or later, with everyone seeking profit for themselves and scheming against each other. At that time, the family would really be no longer a family, and the clan would be no longer a clan.
Just imagine, Cui Jing and Cui Yi were outside following Yan Xingchuan to conquer the world, with their lives on the battlefield uncertain. The clan leader's wife not only did not take care of their family at home, but also plotted and framed them again and again. How could this be possible?
If Cui Jing and Cui Yi knew about this, they would go crazy. Whoever wants to get the glory and wealth of the Cui family can get it, otherwise they will just sever ties with each other and divide their own things from then on.
"Xie." Old Madam Xu's eyes were heavy. "Tell me, what should we do instead of doing this?"
Mrs. Cui's face changed drastically, and she seemed to have regained some consciousness. She clenched her teeth and refused to speak.
"Xie, it has been twenty years since you married into the Cui family. In these twenty years, has the Cui family ever treated you unfairly?
Even if the master of the family was once greedy for beauty and favored a concubine, everyone in the clan would speak up for you and advise him to distinguish between wives and concubines and respect you as the legal wife."
"Have you forgotten who you are and what you should do?"
Mrs. Cui was stunned for a long time as if she was struck by lightning, and then her face turned pale.
Yes, she has forgotten who she is.
She is the wife of the patriarch of the Cui family and is respected by the family. Similarly, she also has the responsibility to protect the clan members, especially the clan wives and unmarried girls. She has the responsibility to discipline and protect them.
However, she personally planned and drugged the girls in an attempt to destroy the innocence of the girls in the clan in order to make her own daughter successful and help her daughter ascend to a high position.
If this really happened, the Cui family would probably be on the verge of collapse.
What kind of Cui family is this when the Cui family has already fallen apart?
When Mrs. Cui thought of this, she felt as if everything had been taken away from her. Her body softened and she lay on her back on the bed.
Old Mrs. Shen's eyes moved between Mrs. Cui and Old Mrs. Xu, and she felt that there was something she didn't know.
So she asked Madam Cui, "Xie, do you have anything else to say about what happened yesterday? If not, we will write a letter to the head of the family."
Speaking of Patriarch Cui, Madam Cui's face stiffened again. After a moment's thought, she said, "There's no need to investigate further. I was the one who got into trouble by accident. It just so happened that Silang came looking for me, and that's when things went wrong."
Mrs. Cui knew that no matter what the truth was, she would not have a good ending, so she just took the responsibility for the matter and did not investigate it. She just thought that she was accidentally harmed and her children would have a good ending.
If the investigation is further conducted and it is found that she was the one who wanted to harm Cui Si and ended up suffering the consequences, Cui Jing and Cui Yi will definitely not let her go, nor will they let Cui Xu and Cui Yun go.
That's it.
Mrs. Cui closed her eyes and decided to accept her fate.
