2243. Chapter 2243 Strong generals have no weak soldiers [07]
This is more humiliating than directly saying that they are unfilial. It is accusing them of using their dead mothers to blackmail people. They don't want to let the dead people rest in peace, but they still go through such a torment. It is really unfilial.
The boss of the Chi family ordered him to go back quickly, while he and his mother-in-law went to Wen's house to ask Mrs. Cui for instructions and also to receive the promised reward.
Mrs. Cui originally took Aunt Xiang and others to hide upstairs to watch the excitement. Who knew that Shen Mingzhu solved the matter without even showing her face, which made Mrs. Cui very angry.
She complained to Aunt Xiang: "Why is this Shen Mingzhu so capable? It's clearly her fault. Now I'm being given a bad reputation for abusing my stepson. If this continues, won't my reputation be ruined?"
Totally ruined.”
She was so angry that she paced back and forth in the room, unable to swallow her breath.
"Boss Chi and He, those two idiots, fail more than they succeed. They can't even handle such a thing well."
Aunt Xiang didn't dare to speak. She didn't quite agree with letting the Chi family carry Mrs. Chi and stop the princess's carriage on the road to cause trouble, because it seemed like it could push the princess into despair, whether it was confrontation or avoidance.
If it is not a good idea, it may be criticized by others.
But there is the simplest solution to this matter, which is to let the Wen family solve it themselves.
Shen Mingzhu was not stupid, and he found the crux of the problem immediately. However, he just mobilized a few women from Tingtaoyuan and everything was solved.
Shen Mingzhu's move not only slapped her in the face, but also made her suffer because she couldn't possibly say that the mother-in-law who listened to Taoyuan was not from the Wen family. After all, those mothers-in-law were the ones she had arranged to listen to.
Of Taoyuan.
When Shen Mingzhu helped manage Tingtaoyuan, she did not deal with them, but kept them.
"No wonder they all made mistakes back then. Instead of driving them away, Shen Mingzhu kept them. At that time, I was still wondering what kind of medicine Shen Mingzhu was selling in the gourd. As a result, I know now,
She just makes those people fear her and owe her favors, so when she needs to take advantage of them, they can't refuse."
Mrs. Cui said bitterly, tapping her feet heavily on the floor, making a beeping sound.
Aunt Xiang waited for her to vent her anger and persuaded her: "Madam, let's go back. It's probably time for the Duke to return home."
Song Guogong went out on business a few days ago. He originally said he would come back yesterday, but he was delayed due to something and had to come back this evening.
So Mrs. Cui thought about making this matter bigger when the Duke came back. Then Song Guogong would definitely hear about it. Then he would not blame Shen Mingzhu, but Wen Songzhi.
Making the Duke hate Wen Songzhi is something Mrs. Cui is willing to do no matter what.
I just didn't expect that Shen Mingzhu would resolve the matter like this. Not only did he not suffer any loss, but he even humiliated himself.
Mrs. Cui said angrily: "I want to see what that little bully can do. Do you really think everything will be fine with Shen Mingzhu?"
Aunt Xiang hurriedly comforted her: "Madam, let's go back to the house first. There is no need for Madam to worry about the Crown Prince. Even if we can't let him abolish the title now, it doesn't matter. If the Duke is in his prime, at least he still has a wife.
