Mrs. Lin had remained silent until this moment, when she suddenly moved and knelt down for a few steps to Mu Qingyang's feet. She no longer acted like a little daughter-in-law, she raised her head high and looked directly at her husband, without any hesitation.
Xu Di said: "Even if the master wants to convict me, I still have to give me a chance to defend myself. I have been busy these days with the eldest lady's wedding ceremony, and the old lady is not feeling well. My asthma, which has not recurred for a long time, broke out yesterday.
I was afraid that it would affect today's haircut ceremony, so I kept patiently and went to bed early yesterday, so when Zhuxiang came over, I was already asleep."
When she saw that Mu Qingyang was silent, she continued: "Master knows that I have always been sleeping lightly. How dare the people serving around me come to disturb my rest? It is naturally the third lady's priority, not to mention that the third lady has not made it clear.
My sister is unwell and needs to see a doctor. How could the people in this concubine know this? They are only thinking about how to dress me up. If they knew that their eagerness to protect me would lead to the situation today, how could they not call me out?
Body? Sir, if you are feeling unwell, wouldn't Uncle Zhong stop people from disturbing your rest?"
Mrs. Jiang's face darkened slightly. She obviously didn't expect that at this moment, Mrs. Lin could actually turn the tables with just a few words. She squeezed the brocade handkerchief in her hand, but she didn't dare to show the slightest bit of reluctance on her face.
Liuyun's face was calm, with no trace of sadness or joy. She had known for a long time that she could not underestimate Lin. She had been with her father for so many years, and even though she did not know how to support her, she did not understand her father's temperament. Mu Qingyang would eventually
He is a hard-spoken person with a soft heart. He may be an unstoppable profiteer in the business world, but when it comes to his family, he is easily soft-hearted.
However, Mrs. Lin understands her father, and she, Mu Liuyun, also understands him, so the outcome of this round has yet to be determined.
"Dad, I know better than any of us how my aunt treats me. If my aunt had the intention to harm others, how could she be so clear-cut? Aunt Xia is not in good health. If the aunt had the intention to harm her, she would still be alive today.
"?" Lan Xi's eyes flashed with sadness, and she looked at Mu Qingyang sadly, trying to make her father change his mind and think about her mother's kindness.
At this time, Lianying suddenly limped over and was about to kneel down. Mu Qingyang winked at the maid beside her, and the maid immediately pulled her back. He waved his hand towards her, indicating that she did not need to kneel down.
.
"Master, the third lady has a bodhisattva heart and has no fights with the world. She doesn't want the master to cause trouble in the house because of her. Today's situation is what the third lady doesn't want to see the most. But there are some words that I can't help but the third lady teaches.
The slaves must be patient and generous, and the slaves are also doing what the lady wants, but there are some things that the slaves see in their eyes, but they feel pain in their hearts." Lianying did not cry, and her eyes were not even red, but she
There was a kind of despair in her eyes, which seemed to make people feel inexplicably sad along with her.
She pursed her lips and continued: "The third lady is weak and is particularly afraid of the cold in winter. The master always thought it was because the wife was weak, but this is not the case. The master went out to do business in the winter of the year before last, and the third wife insisted on staying there for the sake of the third miss.
After kneeling in the snow for four hours, the slave carried the lady back, her body was as cold as ice and she almost died. When the master returned home, he asked the third lady why her knee was injured, and the wife told him that it was not.
Be careful if you fall, I know how much I wanted to tell you the truth."
Lin's eyes widened and she looked at Lianying in disbelief. She never expected that Lianying would mention what happened so long ago at this time, not to mention that she and Xia had already had a tacit understanding about what happened at that time.
She would not mention it again. Xia knew in her heart that if Lin had the intention to harm Jin Han, she would never be able to prevent it, so for the sake of her daughter, Xia swallowed the pain in her heart.
Lian Ying's words moved the old lady. Although she didn't like Mrs. Lin in the past, she thought she was a sensible person, but she didn't expect that she could be so vicious. No wonder Xia's body was so weak. It turned out that she was in Xue
The ground was frozen. She had always thought that Xia was too delicate, but it turned out to be the truth.
"You Lin Ruyu, how can you be so vicious?" Mu Qingyang was so angry that he flashed back to the tearful way Xia told him it was okay, and he felt tightness in his chest. He raised his hand and gave it to Lin again.
A slap in the face, and this time Ms. Lin was knocked to the ground and could not get up again. She only felt like there were stars in her eyes and a buzzing in her ears.
"Master, I don't have..." There was blood in her mouth and she couldn't speak clearly, but she also knew that he was angry at the moment, and she was afraid that nothing else she could say would be of any use, but she still trembled and crawled.
He crawled to Mu Qingyang's feet, "Master, I really don't have a body, it's them who are slandering me."
"Dad, aunt, no, aunt is not such a person." Lan Xi was also frightened and could only murmur and deny along with her mother. She remembered that when she and Liu Yun were making a snowman, they saw Xia kneeling in the snow.
, she ran to ask her mother curiously, but her mother just snorted and walked away. Seeing that her mother was unhappy, she also walked away. Later, she heard that Xia was seriously ill, and nothing more happened.
How could Liu Yun let the matter end so quickly? She frowned deeply, as if she was hesitating whether to plead for Mrs. Lin. After hesitating for a while, she said: "Dad, Aunt Xia is still sleeping. These things will wait for a while."
Dad will ask her after she wakes up. As for what happened this time, let's wait until Aunt Xia wakes up. Aunt Xia is kind-hearted. If dad punishes her severely, it won't defeat Aunt Xia's original intention."
"Yes, Qingyang, this matter concerns the heirs of our Mu family, and we must not take it lightly." Mrs. Mu looked coldly at Lin who fell on the ground, and snorted disdainfully: "Put this woman first
Lock her up and have her questioned and questioned about what she has done over the years."
Mrs. Lin turned around suddenly, touched Mrs. Mu's cold eyes, and shuddered secretly.
"Yes, what mother said is true." He agreed, and shouted towards the door, "Come here, lock up this poisonous woman for me. Uncle Zhong, send someone to interrogate me properly. She also
What a good thing you did."
"Yes." Uncle Zhong glanced at the embarrassed Mrs. Lin, then glanced at the calm-faced Liu Yun without leaving any trace, and immediately called two old ladies to take him away. Mrs. Lin struggled to plead with Mu Qingyang, but
The arms of the two old women were so strong that she couldn't escape when they caught her. She had to be stuffed with a rag in her mouth and taken down and locked up.
"Dad..." Lan Xi cried so hard that she knelt in front of Mu Qingyang, "Please forgive me, the darkroom is damp and cold, how can my aunt endure such hardship?"
Liuyun once again stepped forward to comfort Lan Xi with a gentle tone: "Don't worry, sister, dad will definitely give justice to my aunt."
But this time, Lan Xi still couldn't hold back, and fiercely shook off Liu Yun's hand. When she touched the gloating in Liu Yun's eyes, she suddenly remembered that her father was still in front of her. Sure enough, seeing her father's disgusted eyes, she
I was so confused that I didn't know what to do.
"You all go back." After saying that, Mu Qingyang turned around and went to Xia's room.
Mrs. Mu looked exhausted, so Bai Su helped her go back to rest. Seeing that there was nothing to do, several concubines also left. Jin Han and Lian Ying naturally followed them to Xia's room. After a while, the main hall was filled with people.
Liu Yun, Lan Xi, and Siya, who watched the whole show without speaking, were left.
"Second sister, you'd better go back. Dad won't forgive Aunt Lin easily." Siya looked at Lan Xi condescendingly, with a gloating smile on her lips, but her words that were supposed to comfort her were filled with joy.
Lan Xi remained silent and her kneeling posture remained unchanged. Seeing her like this, Siya shrugged and left.
"Even if you kneel until both legs are broken, dad will never forgive your mother." Liu Yun left these words quietly and left with a light smile.
