Chapter 207: Drowning a child is like killing a child
Grandma Hong folded her hands, bent slightly, and bowed to Mrs. Xu Guogong.
"I have come to see Third Young Master Su," she said. "Our second wife is ill and the eldest girl has injured her ankle. The culprit must be punished today. I have come to see you so that I can go home and tell my masters."
Mrs. Xu Guogong's body was shaking with anger.
Su Ke said fiercely: "Have you seen it now? Are you satisfied? Get out!"
Aunt Hong's expression remained unchanged: "After reading it, I'm quite satisfied. It won't be too late for me to return to my house after the Third Young Master leaves the city."
This response was gentle in tone but very arrogant in attitude.
Mrs. Xu Guogong couldn't hold back her anger and cursed: "It's really a tiger being bullied by a dog! How dare a woman come to our Duke Xu's house and talk nonsense!
I really regret now, I regret that I made such a marriage for Keer!
We are asking for marriage to the daughter of a concubine. Where is your sincerity? You will not let us go even if you cancel the engagement!
If it weren't for Lin Yunjing, how could something happen to Ke'er?
What bad luck!"
Not far away, Mrs. Xu Guogong woke up.
She cried so hard that she was exhausted, and was helped to the car to rest by the maids.
Unexpectedly, with just a little effort, my mother-in-law...
Before coming out, we had obviously discussed it, but we just met Ke'er and never mentioned anything about it.
Now, not only is it mentioned, but it is also so vicious and confusing.
How will she explain to the Duke later!
Without caring about her own health, the Duke's wife hurriedly got out of the car, stumbled into the old lady's side, and persuaded her: "Don't be angry, she is just a woman, she is not worth getting angry with."
Grandma Hong's face was full of anger, but she was extremely restrained: "You are wrong to say that.
No matter whose family the Third Young Master was engaged to in the first place, if his inappropriate behavior is exposed, the woman will want to break off the engagement.
It is said that we girls are lucky to have found out about this matter before we got married. If it were after marriage, I don’t know if we would be able to escape!
Now that the engagement has been withdrawn, the two families have returned to each other, and the two families have returned to the same place, and they have nothing to do with each other from now on.
But the third young master deliberately harmed others and almost killed our wife and girl!
If you are looking for trouble on your own, we will say ‘bad luck’!”
"You!" Mrs. Xu Guogong couldn't hear such words, her blood surged and she couldn't stop talking.
All those excuses for Su Ke were poured out.
The Duke's wife was so anxious that she wanted to cover the old lady's mouth, but she only covered half of it. Seeing that more and more people were watching around her, and the chatter became more and more serious, a white light burst in front of her eyes, and then passed. p>
The city gate guards saw that something was not going well here and hurriedly came to maintain the situation.
First let the escorting officials take Su Ke out of the city, and then let the people from Duke Xu's mansion take the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law away.
Grandma Hong sighed: "Drowning a child is like killing a child."
After saying that, she took one last look at Su Ke's back, turned around and headed towards her carriage.
The common people did not disperse, they were still discussing each other.
"The old lady cried so sadly. I thought she was a charitable person, but I didn't expect her to be so fierce!"
"How can he raise a grandson like that without being cruel? It's obvious that his grandson is in a mess, and in the end it's all other people's fault."
"Uncle Chengyi is really lucky. If he found out after marriage, Duke Xu would be so unreasonable, and it would be difficult to reconcile and divorce."
"No! Uncle Chengyi will not quarrel when he sees it, he will only reason."
"Look at my grandma, no matter how angry she is, she will always speak in a straight tone."
"What did scholars call this a while ago?"
"Neither humble nor arrogant."
"Yes, yes, neither humble nor arrogant!"
On the carriage, Grandma Hong took the drink that Wan Yue handed her, moistened her throat and suppressed her shock.
After a bowl of sweet hot drink, she felt much better.
"You still have a way." Grandma Hong and Lin Yunyan said.
Lin Yunyan smiled lightly.
She knew that it was not only Su Ke who could not be provoked, but also Mrs. Xu Guogong.
Once the blood is high, you will dare to say anything nonsense.
As for the problem of getting over in a hurry, it seems that he inherited it from the Duke's wife.
"One is one, and two is two. Su Ke did evil first, so we can't make them cry together and make people only remember the friendship between ancestors and grandchildren." Lin Yunyan said.
Grandma Hong nodded: "If the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, we must see through their true colors."
After saying that, she patted her chest again: "To tell you the truth, what I just said made my heart pound. I wanted to laugh at the old lady who bit the hook when she saw it, but she couldn't really laugh, so I could only keep a straight face.
If you speak, your secret will almost be revealed."
Wan Yue smiled and said: "You have to learn from Aunt Wang in this regard, she is amazing."
Lin Yunyan rolled her eyes: "Send Su Ke off, let's go meet Yu Pu."
There is a poetry meeting in Nancheng today.
Chen Gui inquired and said that Yu Pu would attend.
When we got to the place, Grandma Hong got out of the car.
Chen Gui had arrived a long time ago and quietly pointed to her: "The one standing over there, wearing dark blue clothes."
Grandma Hong took a closer look: "Yes, he was the one who helped us that day without leaving his name."
"As long as it's confirmed," Chen Gui said, "Mom, tell the princess, everything will be done well."
The poetry session lasted until the afternoon.
Chen Gui came forward and saluted happily with all the students.
Someone asked: "The boss is here to make Shenghui Pavilion famous again?"
"We're about to open the door to welcome guests," Chen Gui said with a smile, "I'll make a good connection and you'll come to visit me more in the future."
The study room given by Chen Gui follows the path of the Poetry Society. It is practical for the students and not too expensive. It is a bonus during the competition. The students who stand out will not have any burden if they accept it. p>
And Chen Gui is a good talker. No matter who he makes friends with, he greets each other politely and thoughtfully when meeting.
"Brother Yu," Chen Gui said cheerfully, "can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Yu Pu agreed.
The two of them went to the private room upstairs.
Chen Gui got straight to the point: "Thank you for helping me on the mountain trail two days ago."
Yu Pu was stunned for a moment.
His impression of Chen Gui came from other students. He knew that Chen Dong's family wanted to run a study business, and he had been busy working on it recently.
So much so, that he had vaguely heard of "Dong Chen's family and Uncle Chengyi's family are related", but he put it in the back of his mind.
Chen Dongjia was looking for him, but he still didn’t doubt that he was there.
"This..." Yu Pu touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, "How could my boss know?"
Chen Guidao: "Brother was in a hurry that day and left a piece of paper behind. We found you from the handwriting."
When Yu Pu heard this, his face turned red: "I, I'm not..."
Seeing his reaction, Chen Gui couldn't help but laugh.
"I know that I helped someone when they were in trouble. I didn't want anything in return, and I didn't want to be said, 'I made friends with powerful people before entering the examination room.' So I left in a hurry without even leaving my name."
," Chen Gui cupped his hand, "I have my own considerations. The uncle's house is the one who receives the favor, let alone make things difficult for the benefactor in the name of repaying the favor.
Therefore, I came forward on behalf of the government and privately thanked my brother for his kindness and presented me with some paper and pen. I also hope that I will not refuse."
