"I'd like to see how much guts she has! She'll try to make a move!"
Lady Wang was furious. How dare they! That was made by imperial decree of the Inner Court. How many people would dare to move it!
They hurriedly led their people to the main gate.
Shen Ajiao had gathered more than a dozen strong men, and they had already pried open the stone lion. Just as they were about to install the rollers, they saw Madam Wang arrive angrily with her men.
"Hurry up, all of you! If you get this done, I'll reward each of you with twenty taels of silver today!"
The burly man exclaimed, "Twenty taels? That's half a year's wages! Work harder! Work harder! Work even harder!"
They wanted to move it onto the rollers before Madam Wang arrived.
"Shen family! How dare you!"
Shen Ajiao looked indifferent. "You dare to steal from others, so why can't I?"
"How dare you touch my stone lion! You have some nerve!"
Shen Ajiao blurted out, "I thought it was someone else who came, but it turns out to be the mastermind who was lying in wait at my door last night and stole my stone lion!"
"Look at you, you look like a brother to the stone lion!"
"No wonder they stole my stone lion! They must have been related before!"
Wang Xifeng silently took half a step back; it wouldn't be good for her to step forward at this moment.
"You...you..."
"What do you mean, 'me'? How come you're the one who's like me and you're already panting!"
"You...how dare you!"
"I'm bold? I'm even bolder! Report this to the authorities! Stealing from the gate of a third-rank official is truly rare!"
Shen Ajiao called for her people to leave.
While Madam Wang's words couldn't keep up, her hands and feet were quick, blocking her way and preventing her from leaving. "Shen! This is the Rongguo Mansion, you cannot be so insolent!"
Shen Ajiao looked her up and down, then glanced at the plaque above the door. "Is the Duke of Rong still alive?"
Madam Wang's face turned pale, and she dared not utter a word.
Shen Ajiao clapped her hands, "That's settled then, I haven't even accused you of deceiving people before!"
[The people are all gone, and you can't even produce an heir. You shamelessly hang the Rongguo Mansion's nameplate; you'll be wiped out sooner or later!]
Wang Xifeng, heavily pregnant, shuddered. Oh dear, she was really going to cause trouble!
We must do it in advance!
Tomorrow, no, today is worse than another day.
He gave the maid a meaningful look, as if to say, "Let Jia Lian die a short death today!"
Take care, Second Master!
Madam Wang had no control over Wang Xifeng. She was so angry that she could hardly breathe. Pointing at Chen Ajiao, she scolded, "You unfilial brat! The old lady is so old, yet you stopped her from entering the mansion. She was so angry that she fell seriously ill and couldn't get up."
"Now they're taking advantage of the fact that no one in our family has risen to prominence to bully us!"
"Do you think that just because Lin Ruhai has been promoted and made a fortune, no one can control him?!"
"I want to go to the palace to lodge a complaint with the emperor!"
Shen Ajiao immediately ordered her people to make way, "Please, Madam Jia. It's perfect timing. Let His Majesty see how the Rongguo Mansion took advantage of Lin Ruhai's absence to humiliate his wife and daughter!"
Shen Ajiao's words successfully extinguished Madam Wang's anger, leaving her in a dilemma. She dared not enter the palace at all. This Shen was definitely doing it on purpose, deliberately trying to embarrass her!
She was just saying it. Lin Ruhai is now a favorite of the Emperor. Whatever she says goes. She has no right to cause trouble for Yuan Chun for no reason!
