Chapter 458: Rejected
Aunt Bai thought to herself, if this happened back home, why would they have to go through so much trouble? If the Wuxuan Marquisate refused to release her, she would never leave. She would kneel down and die at their doorstep with her servants.
If they have the guts, just do it.
She was eager to do so.
Why is it so troublesome in the capital? Her son must have been so scared, tormented, and suffered so much all the time.
As a mother, my heart aches when I think of her.
Mrs. Rong'an Marquis did not expect that her visiting card was returned. Nanny Feng from the Wuxuan Marquis's Mansion said that the lady was frightened and had nightmares at night. She was not in good spirits for the past two days and was unable to entertain Mrs. Rong'an Marquis. When she recovered from her illness, she would definitely invite the Rong'an Marquis' Mansion to a banquet when she had the chance.
This reason sounds like an excuse, but it seems so reasonable.
Why are you so frightened? Why are you having nightmares? Isn't it because of Bai Baoying?
The wife of Marquis Rong'an felt as if she had been slapped in the face, burning.
Aunt Bai couldn't stand it any longer and started to mock her. "So the wife of the Marquis Wuxuan isn't feeling well? Then why didn't you tell me when we arrived at the door? Couldn't you have just explained it a little more? Sister, since the wife of the Marquis Wuxuan isn't feeling well, why don't we go visit her?"
Nanny Feng didn't even raise her eyelids towards Aunt Bai, let alone pay attention to her stupid words. Nanny Feng was a little surprised. She couldn't help but quickly glance at the wife of the Marquis of Rong'an and politely took her leave.
It's strange that the wife of Marquis Rong'an has such a vulgar and ridiculous sister.
Seeing that Aunt Feng ignored her, and thinking that her words had shut her down, Aunt Bai felt happy and proud. How could she let Aunt Feng leave just like that? She insisted on stopping her, saying, "Hey, why are you leaving? You haven't finished your conversation yet! Since your wife is ill, we're going to visit her right away. Why don't you wait a while and we go back with you?"
Nanny Feng smiled slightly and said politely, "Madam, not everyone can visit the sick in our mansion."
Aunt Bai sneered in anger and shame: "What do you mean? Look down on me? You are just a slave, how can you be so arrogant!"
Nanny Feng's tone turned cold. "So, people with different ideals cannot work together. Madam, please make way."
"you--"
The wife of Marquis Rong'an was almost mad with rage, and Nanny Yu beside her quickly grabbed Aunt Bai.
Chunyan hurriedly smiled and sent Madam Feng out. She said many flattering words on the way and finally stuffed a red envelope with twenty taels of silver notes into Madam Feng, begging Madam Feng not to tell others what Aunt Bai had said.
Nanny Feng snorted and walked away.
Aunt Bai was still unconvinced. "Why did my sister ask Mammy to stop me? That old bitch made me speechless because she was guilty! She's not worthy of playing tricks in front of me! We should just go over and expose that pretentious Lady Wuxuanhou! Let her bully us!"
"Just shut up!"
The wife of the Marquis of Rong'an had a splitting headache, her breathing becoming slightly disordered, but she had to speak patiently, "Don't you know what excuse Madam Liang is making? She's really refusing to see us. This excuse is just to give both sides a way out and preserve their dignity."
"If you insist on visiting the patient and exposing her, who would want to associate with such a frivolous family like you? Who wouldn't want to be respectful in everything they do?"
"Let's take a step back and say we force our way to visit the patient. So what? Madam Liang has made it clear she doesn't want to talk and won't let go. Will she change her mind if we force our way to her house? Have you ever considered that doing so might even anger her? And make things even more awkward?"
Aunt Bai was terrified, sweating profusely, but she still insisted, "How dare she? She wouldn't dare. Sister, you are the wife of the Marquis of Rong'an! Do they dare to offend the Marquis of Rong'an's mansion?"
The wife of Marquis Rong'an sneered and was too lazy to speak.
If they didn't dare, Baoying would have returned long ago.
Aunt Bai obviously came to her senses and realized that she had said something stupid. She was so anxious that she was about to cry, "Sister, I don't know why there are so many rules in the capital. I, I am just too angry and too anxious. Sister, I am really anxious, my poor Baoying..."
The wife of the Marquis of Rong'an couldn't help but soften her heart again. "Forget it, don't cry. I don't blame you. Just don't say anything nonsense in the future. Otherwise, it will be useless and will only make things worse. Also, if you want to find a suitable marriage for them in the capital, you must not create a bad reputation, otherwise there will be no good marriage."
"Baoying is my own nephew, and I care about him just as much. Anyway, with the Rong'an Marquis Mansion there, Baoying will definitely be fine."
"When he comes back, you must discipline him properly. You can't let him do whatever he wants! If he ever offends someone that even the Rong'an Marquisate can't protect, it will be troublesome."
"Okay, okay, I'll remember that, sister. Thank you very much, sister."
Aunt Bai agreed repeatedly, but she didn't agree in her heart.
How could there be someone that even the Rong'an Marquisate couldn't keep? Putting aside the title, wasn't there still Concubine Xue in the palace?
In fact, if we ask Concubine Xue for help and have her pass on a message, would Marquis Wuxuan and his wife dare to disobey the order?
But my sister and brother-in-law told me not to trouble the queen.
It is obvious that Baoying is not their son, they just don't feel sorry for him and are unwilling to give their best.
Aunt Bai felt a little sad when she thought about it.
But what can she do about her sadness? She still has to hold her sister in her arms. Besides her sister, who else can help her save her son?
When her two children find happy marriages in the capital, just wait and see, she will have a day to be proud of herself.
The wife of Marquis Rong'an had no choice but to smile bitterly and ask her husband to accompany her to the Marquis Wuxuan's mansion.
It is impossible to ignore the nephew's affairs, otherwise what will become of their mansion.
The Marquis of Wuxuan's Mansion was relentless and insisted that the Marquis of Rong'an Mansion submit to him, but we can't say they were being excessive. Bai Bao shouted and humiliated the wife of the Marquis of Wuxuan, and they deserved to have his mouth smashed on the spot and be taken to the yamen to be beaten half to death.
If Baoying was just locked up, the Wuxuan Marquis' Mansion would have given enough face to the Rong'an Marquis' Mansion.
Baoying is a commoner, but she is the wife of a marquis.
Besides, it was he who initiated it.
How to deal with it depends entirely on the personal opinion of the wife of Marquis Wuxuan.
Rong'an Hou was extremely frustrated and said coldly, "This is just this once, and it won't happen again! When your nephew comes back, tell him to be more careful with his words and actions and not to act so tyrannically again. This is the capital, not some country family. There are many families under the emperor's feet that he can't afford to offend! Not every family will give us the face of the Marquis' Mansion."
The wife of the Marquis of Rong'an had a dull expression on her face. She could only lower her head and listen to the scolding. "Don't worry, my Lord."
"snort!"
