Chapter 278 My mother-in-law is a loyal servant (twenty-two)
Facing the gentle and virtuous "Gu Xiuniang", the governor of Jingzhao, who had heard some of her deeds from the servants, felt a little sympathetic.
This lady from the Feng family is also pitiful. Judging from her panic, she probably doesn't know the truth of the matter.
Alas, it's pitiful that she has been loving and educating Feng Yanting as if she were her own flesh and blood all these years. In recent years, she has almost burned her eyes out just to be able to support him in his studies.
My husband has a new love, and not only his mother-in-law but also Mrs. Zhang and other ancestors need to be supported.
Jingzhao Prefecture Yin is not a woman, but she can imagine that if it were not for her son, the Feng family's wife would not have endured it all this time.
Don't talk about rules, just be filial.
The Zhou Dynasty did not have so many strict dogmas.
If a couple is not doing well, they can reconcile, divorce, and get married separately.
If the husband's family is too mean, the woman can choose to leave.
Even if there is no natal family to rely on, a female household can still be established.
It shouldn’t be a problem for the Feng family’s wife to be able to raise a large group of people on her own and support herself and a daughter!
Therefore, the reason why people can endure it to this day is definitely not because of the relationship between husband and wife or the rules and etiquette, but because of the reluctance to part with their son.
But now, even my son -
The governor of Jingzhao couldn't bear to tell the truth, but said to Aunt Zhao: "Ms. Zhao, the relevant people are already here. Please tell me carefully what happened back then and what the situation was!"
Aunt Zhao had been paying close attention to He Tiantian's reaction when she entered the lobby.
Seeing her confused look on her face and asking the question "What happened?", Aunt Zhao knew: This bitch really refused to admit that she wanted to change her son!
Unfortunately, Aunt Zhao couldn't expose it yet.
When she discovered Gu Xiuniang's scheme, she followed it and successfully transferred Feng Yanting to Gu Xiuniang, and also took care of all Gu Xiuniang's arrangements.
Aunt Zhao personally helped clean up the case and destroyed some evidence.
Therefore, if Aunt Zhao only said that Gu Xiuniang had the intention of exchanging children, she could not provide any evidence.
And if Aunt Zhao accuses Gu Xiuniang of being an accomplice in "stealing a dragon and turning a phoenix", then the situations that Aunt Zhao was worried about before will happen.
"Gu Xiuniang" will not admit guilt at all, she will even cry out for injustice.
If you don't do it right, Mrs. Zhang will be dragged into the water!
"...What a bitch, I really took advantage of you!"
Aunt Zhao felt so filled with hatred that she dug her fingers into the cracks of the floor tiles.
Originally, she was still thinking that even if she couldn't put all the blame on Gu Xiuniang, she would still make her an accomplice.
As a result, Gu Xiuniang didn't feel guilty at all, as if she really didn't secretly change the child.
Aunt Zhao lives in the house all year round and likes to observe people's emotions and speculate on people's hearts.
She knows very well the principle of "attacking the heart first". When there is no evidence or the evidence is vague, whoever can be confident will win.
Now, "Gu Xiuniang" has mesmerized everyone with her superb acting skills.
She was so difficult to deal with, and Aunt Zhao didn't dare to touch her anymore.
"The thing is like this..."
Aunt Zhao sighed slightly in her heart, raised her head, revealing an old but determined face.
She slowly repeated the words she had made up.
"...Mom, why? Why, what is this?"
Seeing everyone's expressions, Mrs. Zhang had actually vaguely guessed the reason why Aunt Zhao went to Jingzhao Mansion to surrender without consulting her.
Alas, it turns out that Nanny loves her the most and understands her best. She knows that she is not a person who can pretend.
If it weren't for Aunt Zhao's operation, Mrs. Zhang would not have such a natural reaction when she came to the court knowing all the inside information.
Jingzhao Prefecture Yin and Ping Nanhou are all shrewd people, and they can detect any slight expression on Mrs. Zhang's expression.
By then, Mrs. Zhang will really not be able to clean herself up, and Aunt Zhao will turn herself in for nothing.
Anyway, someone has to take responsibility for what happened back then. The loyal Aunt Zhao would rather bear the infamy and be severely punished than to completely eliminate Mrs. Zhang.
"Madam! I'm sorry for you. I made my own decision and secretly changed the child without reporting it to you!"
"I am dull and ignorant. I mistakenly thought that this was for your own good, but in the end, you and the young master were separated from each other for more than ten years."
"This old slave deserves to die, this old slave made a big mistake——"
Aunt Zhao burst into tears. She shouted at the top of her lungs, confessing her guilt while continuing to distance herself from Mrs. Zhang.
"You do deserve to die!"
The more Ping Nanhou heard this, the angrier he became. He raised his foot and kicked Nanny Zhao hard.
He was a martial arts practitioner and was born with supernatural powers. The kick he kicked out of anger was very fierce.
The fat Aunt Zhao was kicked several meters away, and finally hit the wall hard.
Boom!
There was a dull sound that made people go numb, and Aunt Zhao collapsed in the corner like a pile of rotten meat.
Cough cough cough!
Aunt Zhao coughed hard and sprayed some blood foam from her mouth.
Her whole body curled up, her fat body trembling non-stop.
She must have been kicked by Ping Nanhou and injured her internal organs, and then hit the wall, killing half of her life.
"Mommy!" Mrs. Zhang shouted distressedly, and was about to pounce on Aunt Zhao.
However, He Tiantian got ahead of Mrs. Zhang and rushed directly in front of Aunt Zhao. She grabbed Aunt Zhao's arm and shook her desperately: "Why? Mother-in-law, why are you doing this?"
"You want to be loyal? Well, our Feng family does owe a great debt to the Hou Mansion. Even if our whole family's lives are worthy of it, I will not complain!"
"But, but why did you hide it from us?"
"On the way to Beijing, the eldest lady, oh no, it was Yuanniang. In order to save my wife, she was whipped directly in the face by the officers and soldiers. She was only five years old. She was so small that her whole face was covered in scars.
It’s ruined and has a high fever!”
"At that time, even if you don't tell us the truth, you can at least let us take more care of Yuanniang."
"As a result, you didn't say anything. In order to repay my kindness, I took care of Yuan Niang a little bit, and both you and Madam were unhappy!"
"Even if you want to repay your kindness, Yuanniang is still your granddaughter. Why are you so cruel to her?"
"Also these years, Madam was in poor health and unwilling to take care of Yuanniang, so I took Yuanniang to serve me. As a result, just a few days ago, Madam scolded me -"
He Tiantian seemed to be possessed by the Roaring Emperor, while shaking Nanny Zhao's arm, she accused and questioned her crazily.
And she brought Mrs. Zhang along with her in everything she said.
Aunt Zhao was horrified when she heard this, fearing that her master would be implicated. Even though she had a terrible stomachache, she still gritted her teeth and pushed He Tiantian's hand away.
"It's my fault! It's all my fault! It's me who changed the two children, and it's me who dislikes Yuan Niang for being a girl. Besides, the Hou family didn't treat her badly. She has enjoyed so much after being the eldest lady for these years.
Rich?"
Aunt Zhao also wanted to say some words of loyalty.
He Tiantian seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "Auntie, I, I know, you are interested in the glory and wealth of the Hou Mansion, and then-"
"It's my fault, it's all my fault. If I had given birth to a son, maybe my son would be the heir apparent of the Hou family now!"
Aunt Zhao's eyes widened suddenly, her throat made a roaring sound, and then she fell straight backwards.
