Therefore, even if she was unwilling, she could only ask in a muffled voice:
"What is it, Father? Tell me."
"You've only been married a short time, and on your very first day, you had the servants beat up your mother-in-law."
We have accepted your request for compensation.
But if you don't handle this matter well, how will the people you bring with you view your mother?
So, whoever started the fight today, you'll have to pay back double the amount.
Otherwise, where would you put my face, your mother's face, and Mingyu's face?
Old Qi made this request to establish his authority and to support his wife.
He felt that if this matter wasn't handled properly, his family of three would have no authority whatsoever in the eyes of the servants brought by Xue Mengyu.
The old lady of the house was beaten by a servant, and the family didn't react. If this gets out, is that acceptable?
Therefore, regardless of whether the girl who hit the person was acting under orders, she is innocent.
In short, I'm definitely going to get slapped!
Xue Mengyu, who was already trying to comfort herself, felt like vomiting blood when she heard this request.
That old geezer better not fall into her hands.
Otherwise, I'll definitely teach him a lesson!
He was just a peasant who toiled in the fields, but he acted arrogantly in front of her because he had a son who could read books.
Just wait, let her wait.
If she doesn't find a chance to torment him to death, she's not Xue!
Old Qi had no idea how deep Xue Mengyu's hatred for him ran.
Seeing that she didn't say anything but nodded, he was satisfied and went home with his hands behind his back.
Xue Mengyu didn't follow immediately. Instead, she stood there, watching Old Man Qi's back, wishing she could tear him to pieces!
Since Old Man Qi dared to want both, it means he knew what Xue Mengyu and the Xue family behind her were after.
As long as he keeps his son's secret and it goes undiscovered, he can live a peaceful life.
Even if Xue Mengyu suffers a great injustice, the Xue family will not allow her to return home.
So, he doesn't care if you hate him or not.
Living a good life first, and then getting the money, is the most important thing right now!
Beijing
As for the Qiao family, they traveled by both water and land under the escort of bodyguards.
Hurrying up, the first thing she did upon returning to the Qiao family in Jinling was to summon her brother and parents to the study to discuss matters.
After the Qiao family members came out of the study, the eldest brother of the Qiao family went to the suburban estate to build a workshop.
Mr. and Mrs. Qiao made arrangements to go to the capital.
Qiao carefully guarded the things Chi Yu had given her, fearing that something might go wrong.
When they finally arrived in the capital, they finally met the head steward of Linglong Pavilion through their previous connections.
Linglong Pavilion is known throughout the capital; it's a shop that lays silver eggs and belongs to the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion.
Although the Marquis of Zhenbei's family has few descendants, as long as there are people around and the Empress is still alive, no matter how much others covet it, they will not dare to touch it.
The fact that the Qiao family was able to spend so much of their wealth to get their son-in-law to Fang Shizhong's side naturally meant they had connections with people in the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion.
Or rather, it's the current empress's way of finding a money bag for her son.
They wrote to us before they arrived in the capital. The Empress, of course, knew why they had come.
Concerned about her son, and unable to leave the palace, she sought out her own daughter, the sixth princess who had just come of age at the end of last year.
Perhaps it was because her daughter had come of age, and she felt it was time for her to let her daughter know some things.
Therefore, the Sixth Princess was somewhat disoriented before leaving the palace.
It turns out that her biological second brother was not dead, and her cousin was actually her biological brother.
So it turns out that the Emperor knew about this too; no wonder he so indulged the Empress Dowager in opening her heart to her cousin.
