Chapter 280 My mother-in-law is a loyal servant (twenty-four)
"You replaced my daughter and made me mistakenly think that I had a son. For the sake of my son, I worked like a fool in your Feng family!"
"Okay, there's nothing wrong with exchanging children secretly. Just like your mother said, my Yuan Niang has indeed enjoyed a few years of happiness in the Hou Mansion."
"However, such good times only lasted a few years. Marquis Pingnan was falsely accused, and Yuanniang was only five years old. She was escorted to Beijing along with the family members of the Marquis..."
He Tiantian burst into tears when she spoke, and the accusations in her words were even more heartbreaking.
Ping Nanhou was awakened again.
He has not forgotten that when "Gu Xiuniang" ran to question Aunt Zhao just now, she was referring to Mrs. Zhang both inside and outside her words.
"Gu Xiuniang" was able to find a way to send Wei Yuanniang to Qingyun Temple. From this, we can see that this woman is very smart and very successful.
For such a woman, after listening to what Aunt Zhao said, combined with the performance of Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Zhao over the years, she should be able to deduce the truth.
Ping Nanhou seriously suspected that "Gu Xiuniang" already knew the inside story of the "child exchange"——
Mrs. Zhang did not want her own son to go to the capital as a hostage, so her loyal servant Zhao took the initiative and took the initiative to move her grandson (or granddaughter) to the Hou Mansion.
If "Gu Xiuniang" gives birth to a boy, he can take the place of the legitimate son of the Marquis and go to the capital.
It doesn't matter if you give birth to a daughter, but it doesn't cost much money and food to raise her in the Marquis' Mansion, and you don't have to worry about being accused by the court in the future.
Although Mrs. Zhang's eldest son was raised in the Feng family, he would not suffer any injustice, and Mrs. Zhang could still call people into the house from time to time.
Ping Nanhou thought about it carefully and found that Mrs. Zhang really liked Grandma Zhao's grandson very much and often showed off to him.
At that time, Marquis Pingnan didn't think much about it, he just thought that Mrs. Zhang was doing it to promote Aunt Zhao.
But now that I think about it, Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Zhao are really blatant and don’t even have any cover.
If "Gu Xiuniang" was stupid, she might not notice it.
But I’m really not stupid. If you think back carefully about the past, you’ll see what else you don’t understand.
Especially after the disaster in the Hou Mansion, Feng Yanting and the Feng family lived in peace and quiet, but Wei Yuanniang really suffered a lot.
Mrs. Zhang, too, watched her son enjoying happiness next door, but continued to ignore and even treat Wei Yuanniang harshly.
With her look like this, it would be strange for "Gu Xiuniang" not to doubt her!
"Gu Xiuniang" may also have thought that in Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Zhao's plan, when the children grow up and need to recognize their ancestors and return to the clan, and return to their respective places, they will push her "Gu Xiuniang" out as a scapegoat.
After all, confusing the bloodline of the Hou family is, at worst, deceiving the emperor.
Someone must bear such a sin.
"Gu Xiuniang", the child's biological mother, seemed to have a strong motive for committing the crime.
"..." Marquis Pingnan didn't know how to evaluate the pair of master and servant, Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Zhao.
They, they are really just as "Gu Xiuniang" said, they go too far!
Ping Nanhou is an upright person, he doesn't care about the sand in his eyes, and he can't see the conspiracy.
However, Mrs. Zhang is his wife and the mistress of Pingnan Hou Mansion.
If she is tainted, he and the entire Hou family will be affected.
Pingnanhou Mansion has just experienced a catastrophe. Although it seems that the weather has passed and the weather is calm, there are turbulent waves secretly.
If they are not careful, their palace will be in danger of capsizing again.
Marquis Pingnan cannot take risks with the Wei family.
He quickly interrupted He Tiantian's words and deliberately said in a sympathetic tone: "Ms. Feng, no matter what the truth of this matter is, you are an innocent victim."
"Although Aunt Zhao is your mother-in-law, she is also a servant of the Wei family. My wife is also guilty of lax supervision."
"In addition, you have been very kind to Yan Ting in nurturing and teaching me over the years, and you have also been kind to my wife and other female members of the Hou Mansion in rescuing and helping you. I have always had a clear distinction between grudges and grievances. Not only will I not be angry with you because of what happened to Aunt Zhao,
You will also repay and compensate me!"
As Ping Nanhou spoke, he looked deeply at He Tiantian.
He spoke with deep meaning and said slowly: "When this case is settled, no matter what the outcome is, our Marquis Mansion will not ignore you!"
"If you have any wishes or requirements, you can tell me, and I will definitely satisfy you within my ability!"
For example, Heli!
For example, asking for money from the Feng family!
Another example is the fight for Wei Yuanniang’s custody rights!
Especially the third point is the most important.
Although the people of the Zhou Dynasty were open and open, the restrictions on women were not too strict or perverted.
However, the Zhou Dynasty was still a patriarchal society. Husband and wife could reconcile, but children had to be given to the man.
If "Gu Xiuniang" reconciles with Feng Zhongliang, she can only take her dowry and leave privately.
As for Wei Yuanniang's daughter, her identity is complicated.
If Marquis Pingnan insisted on keeping Wei Yuanniang in the Marquis Mansion for the reason of "nurturing his kindness", it would be reasonable and reasonable.
Even if Ping Nanhou doesn't fight for it, let the two children go back to their respective homes.
As long as "Gu Xiuniang" reconciles, Wei Yuanniang cannot follow her and can only stay in the Feng family.
Of course, if Ping Nanhou, the Marquis, is willing to come forward to help, Wei Yuanniang can get the best arrangement.
Maybe he can continue to be the daughter of the Hou family, and then talk about the marriage and leave the cabinet.
It's better to be an "adopted daughter" than to be a commoner.
Ping Nanhou knew that "Gu Xiuniang" was smart and should be able to make the wisest choice.
And now he is using this as an exchange, hoping that "Gu Xiuniang" will stop here and stop involving Mrs. Zhang.
He Tiantian raised her eyebrows. Of course she understood Ping Nanhou's hint.
However, she didn't want to be blackmailed, let alone let Mrs. Zhang go.
Leaving aside the fact that Mrs. Zhang was the mastermind of the exchange of sons, Mrs. Zhang should pay the price for her neglect and harsh treatment of Wei Yuanniang in the past few years.
There is also the scar on Wei Yuanniang's face. After He Tiantian's timely treatment and the bottle of beauty cream distributed by the system, the wound became so shallow that it was almost invisible to the naked eye.
But the harm it had done to Wei Yuanniang remained deep in her heart.
Once, He Tiantian coaxed Wei Yuanniang to sleep. While the child was sleeping, she cried and begged: "Mom, don't use me to block the whip, it hurts! I really hurt!"
Only then did He Tiantian know that Wei Yuanniang's disfigurement in the script was not an accident, but Mrs. Zhang's fault.
Maybe Mrs. Zhang didn't mean it, but after Wei Yuanniang was injured, Mrs. Zhang didn't feel any pity or guilt.
Later, when Aunt Zhao exposed the original owner, Wei Yuanniang instantly fell from being the daughter of a marquis to being the daughter of a convict, and Mrs. Zhang ignored her.
Upon hearing the news of Wei Yuanniang's death, Mrs. Zhang only said "bad luck".
From the beginning to the end, Mrs. Zhang had no feelings for Wei Yuanniang at all. She only used her.
He Tiantian redeemed Wei Yuanniang, not only giving her plenty of love, but also helping her demand justice...
