Chapter 130 Holding his strong waist
The old nanny looked at the matriarch with concern: "Your Highness, did you hear something that you came here at this time?"
The old ancestor sighed wearily, "She must have learned about Liu's poisoning of Junzhao and has come to hold her accountable. Fine, let her in."
The old woman sighed, "Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast."
Our ancestors were also helpless.
She said, "The Jia family is not good at disciplining their servants, so no news can be kept in this mansion. Otherwise, Ronghua wouldn't have found out so quickly."
"I can only try to appease her. I have a lot of good things in my storeroom. I'll find two items to give to her."
"Mrs. Ye has been married into the family for a long time, but she hasn't gotten pregnant yet. She must be anxious to have a chubby grandson. So, take out that jade Guanyin statue of Guanyin giving a child from my storeroom and give it to her."
“She is indeed a princess, but my background is no worse than hers, and I am her elder.”
Otherwise, what else can we do after the family has already split up?
Liu was promiscuous and deserved to die, and she didn't necessarily have to protect her, but this scandalous affair couldn't be made public.
Furthermore, it would be best to wait until after Sheng Huai'an's spring examination to deal with this matter.
Surely a distant aunt can't beat her niece-in-law to death? If it really comes to that, and word gets out, Sheng Yunche's reputation will be affected.
...
Ye Mingzhu was naturally aware of what had happened at the Sheng residence.
Even if he couldn't monitor Liu Rumei up close, Sheng Huai'an was so enraged that he didn't know how to conceal his anger, and his voice was as loud as a rooster crowing.
After hearing Yanzhi's report, she couldn't help but recall the time when she was killed by Sheng Huai'an in her previous life.
At that time, he was also indignant, feeling that she was ungrateful.
Although he hadn't touched her in three years of marriage, neglected her, humiliated her, used her longevity gu to cure Liu Rumei's illness, and even had an affair with Liu Rumei... she actually dared to resist, which meant she was restless.
She's restless; she'll die.
Scenes from past and present lives seem to overlap.
However, in her past life, she was the one who had an attack on Sheng Huai'an, and Liu Rumei was the accomplice who killed her.
In this lifetime, Sheng Huai'an's target was Liu Rumei; the scumbag and the bitch became enemies.
Now it seems that Sheng Huai'an has come to his senses, learned from his mistakes, and knows he needs to study hard. But will it really work?
He failed the exam in his past life!
This life? Heh.
Dealing with scumbags and bitches is a piece of cake for her. But she'd rather see them kill each other to vent her anger.
However, Princess Ronghua was in a bad mood after returning from the Sheng family mansion, and she could not turn a blind eye to it.
She decided to go to Jingchun Residence to tell Liu Rumei her secret and put her mind at ease.
...
Jingchun Residence.
Ye Mingzhu and Princess Ronghua sat facing each other at the tea table, sipping tea and talking.
Ye Mingzhu said, "Mother has been in a bad mood these past two days. I know it's because of the Sheng family's affairs, but there's really no need for that."
"Let me tell you quietly, I have dirt on Liu Rumei. Even if the Ancestor only spared her temporarily for fear of affecting Sheng Huai'an's career in the imperial examinations, we can still make her suffer the consequences."
"What leverage?" Princess Ronghua asked hurriedly.
She initially felt mostly sympathy for her cousin's wife, Liu Rumei.
She herself was a widow, and knew that being a widow was not easy.
Moreover, Liu Rumei was diagnosed with pregnancy not long after her husband's death. She not only had to endure the pain of her husband's death, but also had to go through the hardship of pregnancy and childbirth, which can only be described as pitiful.
But no matter how much she pities others, she can't help but feel sorry for her own son.
She had previously suspected that someone from the Sheng family had poisoned Sheng Yunche, but she hadn't been able to pinpoint the specific person responsible.
Among Sheng Huai'an, Jia Shi, and Liu Rumei, she suspected Sheng Huai'an the most, followed by Jia Shi, and lastly Liu Rumei.
Unexpectedly, the person who poisoned Sheng Yunche was none other than Liu Rumei, whom she thought was the least likely and who seemed weak and harmless!
The whole story would be too long to tell, so Ye Mingzhu simplified it, saying only: "I had my secret guards monitor me before, and they happened to witness Liu Rumei murdering her younger brother Liu Pinliang. Liu Pinliang's body is still buried under the magnolia tree in Qinghui Garden."
"As long as this matter is exposed, the first person who would love to see Liu Rumei dead will be Madam Sun. When that happens, we will send Liu Rumei to the authorities, and Madam Sun will definitely not stop us."
Princess Ronghua shook her head: "For the sake of the family's reputation, the old matriarch will not agree. However, Liu Rumei will not escape death either."
In the depths of a large, secluded mansion, there are countless ways to make a woman die quietly.
Putting everything else aside, if you feed Liu Rumei poison for a few days and keep her under surveillance without allowing her to take the antidote, do you think she can still survive?
In conclusion.
Knowing that Liu Rumei would die sooner or later, Princess Ronghua felt much better, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
“You must have your own plans, so I’ll just watch coldly and let those people cause trouble for a few more days,” Princess Ronghua said.
"Mm." Ye Mingzhu smiled and poured her a cup of tea.
...
Autumn goes and winter comes.
The first snow of winter is a heavy, fluffy snowfall.
Perhaps it was her open-mindedness that made Ye Mingzhu feel that the world was lovely even in the dead of winter.
The cold air hanging upside down from the eaves, the icicles forming on the treetops, the pond covered with a thick layer of ice, and the warm breath exhaled from Baozan and the others as they talked and laughed...
It's lovely everywhere.
Because of the cold weather, her "marital relationship" with Sheng Yunche has also warmed up considerably.
The main problem was that even though there were several charcoal braziers burning in the room, it was still a bit cold for her to sleep alone in a single quilt, since it was a four-poster bed rather than a heated kang bed.
When she gets cold, she unconsciously seeks out a source of warmth in her sleep.
This meant that every morning, when she was woken up by Sheng Yunche's persistent kisses, she would find herself sleeping in his blanket, nestled in his arms, or even hugging his strong waist.
Under such circumstances, she didn't even have the confidence to call him "annoying" or say that he was disturbing her sleep.
What should we do?
Although he woke her up with a kiss, she wasn't innocent; after all, she was the one who crawled into his bed and made the first move, which is why he couldn't resist...
After a while, Ye Mingzhu became a little embarrassed.
She always felt a sense of guilt for taking liberties with Sheng Yunche and taking advantage of him.
But when she woke up early that day, she found that the reality was not what she had expected!
Completely different!
