Su Jingyi, who was pushed to the extreme, collapsed and said, "Aren't you just using your power to bully others? What's so great about it?"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Hou scolded angrily, almost to death from anger. She hired the best nanny to teach her over the past few years, but she didn't make any progress at all.
Shen Xingwan is not surprised. In the book, Su Jingyi's kindness and excellence are often contrasted by her vicious female counterpart. It can be said that she rose to the top by stepping on her cannon fodder.
She ran away and stopped playing. Without her adopted daughter to compare with, Su Jingyi's shortcomings were immediately revealed.
And without her on the side to put pressure on her, Su Jingyi had gotten used to being surrounded by stars in the Hou Mansion in the past few years, and her mentality had long since failed. She really thought she could walk sideways.
"Forget it, Miss Su doesn't seem to think that she has done anything wrong. Madam, there is no need to force her to apologize." Xie Zhuohua said solemnly, "If the Queen asks, I will report the truth truthfully."
Mrs. Su was in a dilemma. She closed her eyes and watched Su Jingyi say word by word, "I'll pour you tea and apologize to Sister Xie. Until you thank Sister Xie for forgiving you, don't go home. Do you understand?"
Su Jingyi looked at Madam Hou in disbelief, "Mom, what are you talking about! Why don't you believe me?"
"So what if she is the legitimate daughter of the Xie family? Can she just accuse others casually and use the name of the Queen to bully others..."
Seeing Mrs. Hou's increasingly cold expression, Shen Xingwan didn't know whether Su Jingyi was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.
However, the heroine is a white lotus who has emerged from the mud and is unsullied. What the male protagonist and his male counterparts love is that she is not afraid of power and is unique.
"The Hou family is such a good tutor, and today we have had an eye-opening experience." A girl from an unknown family on the side said.
Mrs. Hou maintained her last sense of reason, "Su Jingyi, you won't listen to what I say now, will you?"
"Mom, I'm not..." Su Jingyi explained weakly.
"Either apologize, or I will go back to Beijing alone tomorrow and you stay here to reflect. When will Ms. Xie forgive you, when will you return to Beijing!" Mrs. Su threatened.
Su Jingyi opened her eyes in disbelief, "Mom, how could you do this to me!"
"Have you thought about it?" Mrs. Hou looked at her expressionlessly.
Su Jingyi finally regained some sense. Although she was still unwilling to do so, she did not want to stay in Yangzhou alone.
Finally, under Madam Hou's stern eyes, she angrily picked up the tea on the table next to her, moved it to Zhuo Hua, and said dryly, "It was my fault, I accidentally broke the buoy."
Xie Zhuohua took the tea from her hand without any embarrassment.
Su Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around and leave.
Xie Zhuohua stood up immediately, raised the cup of cold tea in his hand, and poured it over Su Jingyi's head.
"Ahhh!"
Amidst Su Jingyi's screams, Xie Zhuohua loosened his grip and the tea cup instantly fell to the ground, with pieces flying everywhere.
Su Jingyi was so frightened that she jumped up and took a step back, her whole body trembling.
Madam Hou's suppressed anger also rose up, and she said sternly, "Miss Xie, please don't bully others too much!"
Xie Huazhuo took the handkerchief handed by the maid next to him and wiped his hands, "Madam, you are joking. I am personally demonstrating to Miss Su what it means to bully others with power."
Xie Zhuohua took a step forward and looked at Su Jingyi, "Have you learned it? Don't just say nonsense without knowing a word in the future."
This is simply throwing her face on the ground and trampling on it without leaving any room.
Madam Hou was instantly filled with anger and sneered, "The Xie family girl has good tricks, I have learned a lesson today."
"Madam, you are so complimentary." Xie Zhuohua accepted her "compliment" without changing his expression." He said magnanimously, "Since Miss Su has apologized, let's forget about today's matter. I will explain it to the Empress if she asks. .”
In fact, the Queen would not ask at all, because the Queen had given her many gifts since she was a child. I am afraid that the Queen herself could not remember what she had given her.
Mrs. Hou didn't want to say a word to Xie Zhuohua, she was afraid that she would be angry to death on the spot.
He was full of anger directed at Shen Xingwan, the culprit, "Chen Xingwan, I'll wait for you in the capital."
At that time, she would settle the account with her, and Xie Chen's family in Jiangnan was here. Since Xie Zhuohua was obviously standing up for her, she naturally did not dare to touch her for the time being.
But she was not so lucky when she arrived in the capital!
Shen Xingwan did not answer, but walked up to Su Jingyi, who was still in shock, and said softly, "It is also a skill to make others stand up for me."
If conditions permit, she doesn't like to play the gentleman's revenge game, and it won't be too late in ten years.
Since Xie Zhuohua was willing to take action, she was naturally willing to lend her hand and slap him in the face.
"Thank you for your hospitality today, I will remember it." Madam Hou turned and left, not bothering to look at Su Jingyi.
It was the maid behind her who supported Su Jingyi and said cautiously, "Miss, let's go too."
As soon as Su Jingyi got on the carriage, she started crying.
Mrs. Hou couldn't bear it anymore, "That's enough, I want to cry for as long as I want!"
Su Jingyi felt even more uncomfortable. Mrs. Hou obviously loved her the most.
Su Jingyi tugged on Madam's sleeve pitifully, "Mom...they bullied me, you believe me."
Mrs. Hou looked at her disappointedly, "Xie Zhuohua is deliberately looking for trouble, but you are stupid enough to be provoked by such an obvious method."
Su Jingyi lowered her head and stopped talking and crying.
"Jingyi, you disappoint me so much. You have been spoiled by us these years." Mrs. Hou said with a sigh.
Such character and tactics will be eaten up sooner or later.
"You will be grounded when you go back and reflect on the stupid things you did in Yangzhou."
At this moment, Su Jingyi hated Shen Xingwan in her heart. It was all because of her that she became like this.
The next day, Mrs. Hou left Yangzhou with her people almost at dawn.
What happened in the Shen family yesterday was immediately spread, and many people watching fell silent.
This is equivalent to a statement by the eldest daughter of the Xie family, admitting Shen Wan's identity and siding with her.
Speculations continued, and the courtyard where Shen Xingwan lived also received inquiries from all over.
Cai Qing skillfully dealt with the maids who came to the door under various pretexts.
Banxia had been thinking about what happened yesterday and couldn't help but ask Shen Xingwan, "Didn't the lady ask me to study hard? There is something I don't understand."
"Oh, tell me." Shen Xingwan put down the book in his hand.
"Miss Xie is not afraid of offending Madam Hou like this?" Ban Xia was puzzled. After all, Madam Hou is not an ordinary family.
"It's very simple. She is confident that she can stand higher than them, so she is not afraid." Shen Xingwan explained.
Xie Zhuohua, a noblewoman from a noble family with both true ambition and ability.
Shen Xingwan himself had to say that he had learned a lesson.
This is the true style and arrogance of a lady.
She will one day become such a dazzling person. From this moment on, Shen Xingwan is determined to stand in a higher position!
