So, when the guests and Xue Hanshu passed by that room, they also heard the sudden shouting from inside. For a moment, everyone's faces turned red and they talked a lot.
Xue Hanshu clenched her hands under her sleeves, suppressing the excitement in her heart: It seems that it has been accomplished! Today, the humiliation she suffered that day can finally be repaid a thousand times over by Xue Zhiyi! Back then, she was only caught in an affair by her own family, but now half of the families of the prominent officials in Huajing are here. She wants to see how Xue Zhiyi will survive after today!
She could both help her husband and take revenge on Xue Zhiyi, so when Zhao Shen proposed this plan, she agreed without hesitation... She was determined to make that bitch suffer a terrible setback!
The unrestrained breathing of the man inside was so unbearable that the ladies present hurriedly covered their daughters' ears... How could such obscene noise be heard by the ladies?
Restraining her inner ecstasy, Xue Hanshu expressed apology, as if extremely embarrassed: "Everyone, I'm sorry. It's my fault for not noticing that such an embarrassing thing has polluted your hearing..."
Amidst the discussion, someone offered comfort, "No matter how well the Third Young Master's wife organizes the birthday banquet, she can't prevent someone from being careless. How can she be blamed for this?"
As soon as this was said, someone else echoed, "Yeah, I don't know who dared to do such a shameful thing in broad daylight. It's really..."
The man couldn't continue.
At this moment, Zhao Lian came with Madam Zhao. Madam Zhao had a relapse of her old illness today, so she had handed the birthday banquet over to Xue Hanshu. While she was recuperating from her illness, she suddenly heard Zhao Lian say that Xue Hanshu had caused trouble, so she hurried over despite her illness.
Mrs. Zhao had heard Zhao Lian's general account of the incident on the way here, but only then did she realize that she was still too late. The female guests already knew that a scandal had occurred in their house.
Looking at Xue Hanshu's embarrassed expression, Mrs. Zhao felt annoyed and her dislike for her deepened.
Xue Hanshu bowed with her eyebrows lowered and saluted: "My daughter-in-law is incompetent, I will leave this matter to mother to decide..."
At this point, the only way to maintain their family's reputation is to prove that the people having fun inside have nothing to do with the Zhao family. Otherwise, if the news gets out one day and spreads as a rumor, it will be considered that the people in their family are not disciplined.
"Although guests are welcome, if they disregard propriety and behave in such a disgraceful manner in the Zhao residence, then don't blame the Yongping Marquis's residence for failing to treat guests properly. Everyone here, please bear witness. If the person in this room is from the Yongping Marquis's residence, the Zhao family will clear the door. If they are not related to the Yongping Marquis's residence, then they are also not related to the Zhao family's reputation, and we will avoid future rumors."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. One lady spoke up, "Madam Yongping is absolutely right. It's better to speak frankly than to let unpleasant speculations spread later."
