"You say, this Fang Da is the same, after all, he is your elder, why did he listen to other people's slander and even ignore his own mother?"
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Even Jian Xiu dared to say such a thing, because it already involved officialdom.
They are just wives who live in the backyard. How can they know what their husbands are doing in the officialdom?
And Jian Xiu's words were clearly accusing Fang Daji of being unfilial.
놛녦 is the Shangshu Ling, in charge of the entire Shangshu Mansion.
Considering Shu Qinglan's identity, saying such words would undoubtedly be seeking death.
Not only would it be a death-seeking move, it could even endanger the entire family.
Only Jian Xiucai, who commands a large number of troops, has such confidence.
Looking at Shu Qinglan again, she was obviously very angry.
Zheng Guijun, who was not far away, seemed to have seen this scene as well, but she did not step forward. Instead, she looked at Jian Xiu with complicated eyes.
"Tell me, did I really do something wrong?" Zheng Guijun suddenly asked.
For a moment, Xiao Tao really nodded.
Ever since she went to Jian Xiu's place that day, Mrs. Hou has hardly spoken since she came back.
She had spent the longest time with Mrs. Hou, and probably knew what she was thinking.
Hearing her words again at this time, she knew that she needed to say something more.
Mrs. Hou is usually harsh to us servants, but isn't beating and scolding a common occurrence in these wealthy families?
Although they were beaten, Mrs. Hou still felt sorry for them and found a doctor for them afterwards.
Most importantly, she was generous to us lowly people, including our families...
Those who could be kept by Mrs. Hou's side were all lowly slaves who had sold themselves, and they had no control over their own lives.
It is a blessing to meet someone like Mrs. Hou.
She didn't dare to think about having the same luck as Xiaoqing, Xiaohuang, and Xiaohong, but if she could always stay with Mrs. Hou, she would be considered lucky.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tao said to Zheng Guijun: "Mrs. Hou, don't you always say that if you take a step back, the world will be wider and the sky will be higher."
In the past, when the Marquis went to war, Mrs. Hou would always eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures.
She said a lot of things like this, but as the status of the Marquis became higher and higher, Mrs. Hou's temperament gradually changed.
It was not until Mrs. Hou was conferred the title of First-Rank Consort because of the war between Lord Hou and her husband that her entire temperament became arrogant.
Coupled with the fact that the Marquis is filial, this is why Mrs. Hou has such a personality.
Being used to being domineering, he naturally refused to obey when he suddenly met someone as strong and frightening as Jian Xiu.
Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Hou was just used to being arrogant.
After hearing Xiaotao's words, Zheng Guijun came back to her senses.
"If you take a step back, the world will be wider and the sky will be higher?" Zheng Guijun murmured.
"Yes, Madam Hou, didn't you always say that before? And think about it, although Princess An Ning was born in the countryside, she is very good at martial arts and has a great military reputation. Even the Marquis admires her very much and sees that she is a person with real ability."
"You are originally a family, wouldn't it be good for everyone to take a step back? Besides, you see, the eldest lady gets along very well with Princess An Ning. You also know Zhangjia Village. Everyone in the village speaks well of Princess An Ning. It turns out that she is also a kind person who can distinguish right from wrong."
"You always said that a family should be together and harmonious, and only when they are in harmony can they make money. But now the Pingyuan Marquis's mansion is deserted. If Madam Hou can take a step back, wouldn't the Pingyuan Marquis be restored to the same state as before?"
After saying this, Xiao Tao still looked at Zheng Guijun expectantly.
From yesterday till now, Mrs. Hou has been in a daze.
This time, Zheng Guijun came to her senses quickly after hearing Xiaotao's words.
Yes, with such a good granddaughter-in-law, what else could she be picky about?
Thinking about what I have done during this period of time, it seems like I was really possessed by a ghost.
Thinking of this, Zheng Guijun's legs seemed to be out of control and she walked towards Jian Xiu.
At this time, Shu Qinglan had been speechless because of Jian Xiu's retort. She noticed Zheng Guijun coming out of the corner of her eye and hurriedly went to greet her with a smile on her face.
"Madam Hou, look at this Princess An Ning. I was just about to say something to her, but she acted as if she didn't see you when she saw you. This..."
"She is the granddaughter-in-law of Zheng Guijun. If she makes a mistake, it is me who should blame her. It is not the turn of an outsider to blame her."
Before Shu Qinglan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Zheng Guijun.
Seeing this, not to mention Shu Qinglan, everyone felt a sense of disorder in the wind.
Jian Xiu and Chi Zijin were the same, looking at Zheng Guijun in surprise.
It was obvious that he looked like he had seen a ghost.
Also, was she speaking for herself just now?
Thinking of this, Jian Xiu turned her head and looked straight at Zheng Guijun.
Well, she still looked as brave as ever, but when she saw me looking at her, she was obviously a little embarrassed.
Thinking of this, Jian Xiu felt like laughing.
Looking at Shu Qinglan's expression, it could only be described as colorful.
That's right, this should be the first time she has been contradicted by someone in her life, right?
Not to mention that she is the wife of Shang Shu Ling, just because her last name is Shu, no one should be able to oppose her in an occasion like today.
Come to think of it, ever since the name Jian Xiu appeared, she seemed to have made a fool of herself frequently.
Just like this time...
No matter how angry she was, she still had a smile on her face.
In an occasion like today, if she made a scene and it was a falling out, it would not do her any good.
Not only will it not benefit her at all, it may also implicate that old thief Fang Jinghong.
Thinking of this, Shu Qinglan took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.
He turned to look at Fang Yisi who was standing aside and said:
"You kid, Xiaoxue came to look for you earlier, why didn't you go home? Look at your outfit today, what do you look like..."
"What? Mrs. Fang, do you think Yisi's outfit is disrespectful? This was picked out for her personally. Look, she looks so elegant!"
While saying this, Chi Zijin also glanced at the people around him.
The meaning in his eyes was clear.
She just didn't want Shu Qinglan to scold Fang Yisi in front of so many people.
Although Chi Zijin was in poor health, she grew up in Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion since she was a child. She knew everything there was to know about the intrigues in the rear quarters.
As soon as Shu Qinglan started talking, she probably knew what she wanted to express.
If she wants to use Fang Yisi to change the subject, it depends on whether she has the ability to do so.
