Aunt Kang was slapped and turned her face away. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and her wrinkled eyelids rolled up like a layer of cake overnight. She covered her cheeks and said, "...Mom, you..." A strong feeling arose in her heart. uneasiness. ~/very literary/
Mrs. Wang said with tears: "You have been in office with us since you were a child. You have been praised and exaggerated, so you look down on this and that. Your brother, sister-in-law, your sister-in-law, and other relatives... Do you think that people Everyone should follow you and rely on you. Whenever something doesn't go your way at all, they will feel resentful and always want to get back their words. They will retaliate for everything they do. Relying on your father's and me's favor, you are so bold that you make mistakes step by step. Now, you have actually done such an outrageous thing! You have exhausted all your close relatives, I...I can't protect you anymore..." The old man burst into tears, his old face full of pain.
Mrs. Wang breathed a huge sigh of relief and looked at her mother with great gratitude. Uncle Wang couldn't bear it and seemed to want to say something, but Aunt Wang pulled down his sleeve and shut his mouth again.
Sheng Hong put a heavy stone in his heart. It was better to deal with his aunt than his own wife. He turned to look at Minglan, but saw his little daughter standing motionless, looking at Mrs. Wang quietly, with a very strange look on her face. He seemed a little disappointed, but also vaguely admired.
"Mom!" Aunt Kang finally came to her senses and screamed piercingly, "Are you going to abandon your daughter?!" She was so frightened that her voice trembled.
No, no, for so many years, my mother always talked and scolded her, but she was always willing to help her in the end. That year, her husband’s favorite little goblin and the evil seed in her belly met the King of Hell together, and her husband almost It’s time to ask the patriarch to write a letter of divorce. Didn’t my mother protect her and pass the test smoothly? After so many years of great storms, this test will definitely be passed!
She lay on her mother's lap and cried: "My marriage was decided by my father. Over the past few decades, my daughter's life has been worse than death. Now my mother wants to ignore it. How can there be such cruel parents in the world?! If my father were still alive, …”
"Don't insult your father's reputation forever!" Mrs. Wang was furious, "Among the three children, your father deserves the most thanks to you! After serving in the northwest for many years, your eldest brother stayed at Chengdu University to study. , your sister was entrusted to his uncle, and you are the only one who has always been raised by our side! But these years, you have been doing everything one by one, are you worthy of your father's spirit in heaven?!... This time, I can't cover up for you anymore, otherwise How can you live up to the affection of your in-laws!"
The old couple couldn't help but feel a little more pain when they remembered that their eldest daughter had been smart-spoken since she was little, and acted coquettishly in front of her parents. She was smarter than the dull son, and smarter than the straight-laced second daughter. They didn't expect that spoiling would turn into a disaster and lead to today's catastrophe. She couldn't help but think again Cry.
Sheng Hong was moved and couldn't help but said: "My son-in-law, thank my mother-in-law for upholding justice." He then raised his hand to Uncle Wang.
Minglan rolled her eyes in her heart.
Aunt Kang's face was pale, and a strange light appeared in her eyes. After a day and night of being tied up, humiliated, smelly and hungry, she was already top-heavy. Now she was stimulated again and her mind was not clear. In the confusion, she only knew that her mother refused this time. Help yourself again, the words 'how are your in-laws' echoing in your mind.
She suddenly stood up and sneered at her mother, brother and sister-in-law: "Okay, okay! I'm not as good as my sister in marrying. My son-in-law and son-in-law are both successful, and my husband-in-law is also famous. Naturally, it's different in my mother's heart. Now I'm down and out, and my husband's family is in trouble." I have no ability, so I can't blame my parents for looking down on me. Now even my close relatives have come to step on me... I, I might as well die..." With that, he rushed towards the wall.
At this time, there were not many maids waiting in the house. Just as Aunt Kang was about to hit the wall, Liu Kun's house was stabbed diagonally, blocking Aunt Kang with her arms. She had been serving in the Wang family's inner house since she was a child. She knew the habits of this eldest lady very well. When Mr. Wang got married, she did not accompany her immediately, so she witnessed with her own eyes several scenes of Aunt Kang going back to her parents' house to cry and complain. She cried, made trouble, and hung herself. After the man said those words, she secretly paid attention to Aunt Kang's every move.
Liu Kun's chest and abdomen were sore from being hit, and he breathed out with difficulty: "I'm afraid my wife is tired."
Aunt Wang took a few steps forward, grabbed Aunt Kang's other arm, and said urgently: "What I'm saying is that the eldest sister is confused. Let's go down and have a rest first." If you don't point at your parents' family and scold them for being poor and loving the rich, and clinging to please the powerful son-in-law's family, there won't be anything good to say if you continue, so it's better to pull them off as soon as possible.
Aunt Kang was held hostage so that she could not move, and could only scream intermittently, "I want to die, let me die" and the like.
Qi's mother had a bright idea and quickly said: "What my uncle is saying is that my wife was frightened and tired, and she said conflicting words. Please don't take it off. Why don't you ask me to wait on my wife and go back to rest." Escape first. Let’s talk later.
Mrs. Wang's heart was moved and she was about to nod when Minglan said with a smile: "Although the Sheng family is not as deep and luxuriant as the Kang family, there are many rooms for my aunt to rest. Mother Qi can accompany her to the wing to rest."
Mother Qi held Aunt Kang's arm and said with a smile: "I've been bothering you for so long, why bother anymore? Besides, I am resting comfortably at home. Madam, what do you think?"
Mrs. Wang also hoped that the big thing would be minimized. She had to suffocate the powder keg first, so she said to Sheng Hong: "Good son-in-law, your eldest sister is confused now. Why don't you ask her to go back first? Other things. Let’s talk about it.~”
Just as Sheng Hong was about to nod, he heard Minglan say, "This can't be broken!"
Mrs. Wang was repeatedly robbed of her virginity by Minglan and forced with words. She was unhappy for a long time. Seeing that her mother-in-law looked bad, Sheng Hong quickly shouted: "Don't be rude!"
Minglan smiled and said: "Dad, I am not rude. You always say ugly things first -" She turned to Mrs. Wang, "Tell Aunt Kang to go home. What if she runs away?"
Aunt Wang almost burst out laughing and quickly held it back. Mrs. Wang was very displeased and said in a deep voice: "I thought you were young and were dizzy because of your grandmother's serious illness, so you talked nonsense. What do you mean by 'running away'? Come on, do you think the Wang family are just thieves in the market? They are all from high-ranking families, so why can’t they say nice things to them?"
Minglan spoke with sarcasm: "It's hard to say. You can poison her, so what else can't be done? If my aunt really ran away, would you ask my father to beat the drum to report to the officials, and put up a wanted list all over the world?"
There was a black anger on Mrs. Wang's face, and she turned to Sheng Hong and said: "Uncle, your daughter is very well-behaved! She is aggressive towards her elders. At my age, she won't give in a word!"
Sheng Hong did not answer immediately, but looked at his daughter thoughtfully. *Very literary*
What Minglan said just now was not so much for the Wang family as for herself. Now her daughter is bent on seeking justice for the old lady. If the Kang Wang family cannot be punished, she will not give up. This damn girl's own father If you dare to stand up, even your mother-in-law dares to seal her, which will really make the Kang Wang family run away. She may immediately beat the drums and report to the officials all over the world to put up wanted lists, and then she will be embarrassed and lose her fortune.
Choosing the lesser of two evils, he avoided his mother-in-law's gaze and said calmly: "Sister-in-law, I'd better rest in the house for a while." After thinking about it, he added a few more words, "My mother is still unconscious.
, just to let the culprit leave easily, I would be arrogant."
If you want to talk about being a mess in the officialdom, you have to say it beautifully. Minglan wants to applaud her father; but Mrs. Wang is full of disappointment. She originally hoped that her son-in-law would show some mercy to her, but it seems that this is not possible.
Already.
She had no choice but to face her eldest daughter and say with a straight face: "You go down first. I'll take care of the rest!"
At this time, Luzhi had already called the two torture mothers in. They grabbed Aunt Kang one by one and walked out. Aunt Kang struggled to escape. Thinking of Minglan's various cruel methods, she could only scream: "Mother
, do you want to watch me die? The Sheng family wants me to pay for the death of their old lady! ... What a cruel mother, blindly stepping on her own flesh and blood to sell them, and stepping on high branches..."
The begging turned into curses later on, and the vicious words were unbearable. Mrs. Wang saw her daughter was half crazy, wiped her tears and said: "Go down and think about it first, I... will always ask for mercy from your brother-in-law..."
It's a pity that the daughter couldn't understand what her mother was saying, so she cursed: "These father and daughter, one is a bad person and the other is a bad person. They are determined not to let me go! Mom, you don't even want to pity my daughter."
Is it..."
Sheng Hong smiled bitterly to himself. This time he was really wronged. He was sincerely trying to make a fool of himself. Unfortunately, the situation forced him to explain it carefully in this situation. The Kang and Wang family didn't know that it was not Sheng Hong's idea to imprison her. They only thought that the father and daughter
They both said the same thing.
The sound of cursing and begging gradually faded away, and then stopped suddenly. It seemed that the two nuns used their methods again to tell Kang Wang to 'shut up'. Mother Qi was worried, so after thinking about it, she followed them out.
Mrs. Wang looked at the retreating figure at the door, feeling unbearably distressed. She steeled herself, stood up and walked to Sheng Hong's side. Then her knees went weak and she was about to kneel down. Sheng Hong was so frightened that he quickly got up and went.
Fu: "Mother-in-law, get up quickly. How dare you be your son-in-law?"
Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang hurried over to help her, and Mrs. Wang also knelt on the ground beside her mother and cried uncontrollably.
Mrs. Wang held Sheng Hong's hand and said sadly: "My two daughters are useless, how can I have the face to meet you and my in-laws! Although you and I are sons-in-law, our affection is comparable to that of mothers. That year you came to my house
, I fell in love with him as soon as I saw him. Many people tried to persuade me that your family background was mediocre, but I felt that this descendant was of noble character, capable and capable, and much better than my own son. Later, when you proposed marriage, I said no.
I'm so happy. People say that my daughter is being condescended to, but I feel that, based on your talent and character, my son-in-law, you are the one who condescends to my stupid girl..."
In fact, it was definitely Sheng Hong who had the upper hand when it came to the marriage between Wang and Sheng. Mrs. Wang was very hesitant, but Mrs. Wang liked Sheng Hong, and despite all objections, she finally married her daughter to him. For this, Sheng Hong has been grateful for many years.
.
Mrs. Wang kept talking, from the wedding to after marriage, from family to officialdom, how she admired and cared for Sheng Hong, how she helped him everywhere, and her kindness and love made Sheng Hong feel even more sad.
, tears rolled down, and the father-in-law and son-in-law burst into tears.
Minglan watched coldly, not saying a word, just listening to Mrs. Wang's touching words as she continued her lengthy poem, gradually entering into the theme - "...Although your mother and I have only been together for a short time, I couldn't admire her character more.
When I heard that she had suffered such a serious crime, I just wished I could take her own life. [Ye*] [*] Your mother is such a charitable person. She never wanted to turn our three families against each other because of this matter.
Relatives are no longer relatives, and flesh and blood have become enemies..."
Sheng Hong was moved while wiping his tears. He almost nodded and said, "Yes, yes." Suddenly, he heard a gentle sneer from the side. Minglan slowly walked to Kang Jin and said with a smile: "Kang's cousin Hello brother."
Kang Jin is honest by nature, but also a bit cowardly. Ever since his mother was dragged out, he has been standing in the corner huddled in tears secretly. Hearing this, he couldn't help but be startled: "Sheng... cousin."
"I am young and don't know the past." Minglan said quietly, but her voice was clear and high-pitched, "I was so moved when I heard what the old lady said today..." She suddenly laughed sarcastically, "I almost thought that I raised my father and invited him to With the guidance of a famous teacher, I succeeded in passing the imperial examination, and the one who married me and gave birth to a child was not my grandmother, but your grandmother?"
Sheng Hong's face turned red. If his mother-in-law was kind to him, his aunt was even more kind to him. He did not ask for an explanation for his aunt who had been harmed, but he spared the murderer of his aunt because of his mother-in-law's affection. , it can’t be justified anywhere.
His face had been honed in the officialdom, and his emotions were very smooth. He immediately restrained his emotions and sighed: "My mother-in-law treats me well, how could I not know. Human ethics are very strict, and you should never let go of someone who harms your mother." .I just hope my mother-in-law will forgive me."
Mrs. Wang was suddenly ridiculed and she hit the point with her words. Seeing that Sheng Honggang was a little shaken, she failed in her success.
She gritted her teeth and continued to be emotionally involved: "My good son-in-law, those two fools really made a huge mistake, but after all they are the flesh that fell off my body, don't look at it at all, just because of my old face "Sir, please forgive me. In the days to come, they will eat vegetarian food, fast, worship Buddha with green lanterns, and chant sutras and pray for your mother. What do you think?"
Sheng Hong hesitated: "This... I'm afraid it's inappropriate..." The father and daughter had already discussed this proposal, but it was rejected by Minglan.
Minglan was scornful in her heart and said in a loud voice: "If my grandmother can regain her former health, I will also be willing to eat fast and chant sutras from now on. My grandson of the Manfu family of the Sheng family is deeply kind and kind to my grandmother. As long as my grandmother can be well, my father, my brother, and I Sisters and sisters-in-law, who doesn’t want to eat fast and chant Buddha’s name? I won’t bother my aunt!”
Sheng Hong quickly straightened his shoulders: "That's right. Filial piety is the foundation of a family. Every member of the Sheng family should keep it in mind. It is their duty to practice vegetarianism and chant sutras to pray for their mother."
Minglan added a handful of firewood: "What's more, before my aunt left just now, she was full of hateful words. God knows what she would ask for in front of the Bodhisattva! Don't curse my Sheng family and just die!"
Sheng Hong also said: "How can a person who has not atone for his sins have the dignity to serve the Buddha, and not be afraid of polluting the quiet place of Buddhism!" The posture must be high, and he has been filial for decades.
Listening to what the father and daughter said to each other, Mrs. Wang was secretly angry, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Sheng Hong wiped his beard and said nothing, turning his face away with a sad expression. Minglan said, "My wife doesn't know what's going on, so it's another matter. But my aunt found someone to make poison and tricked people into poisoning. It will definitely kill people." It was a vicious act. With all the witnesses and material evidence, there is no reason to evade denial. The treatment is very simple, just three feet of white silk, or a glass of poisonous wine, and it costs your life."
Mrs. Wang huddled behind Liu Kun's house and breathed a small sigh of relief. But Mrs. Wang was shocked: "You want to take her life?"
"Debts must be repaid, and murder must be repaid with life. It is only natural and right!" Minglan said flatly.
Mrs. Wang rolled her eyes, her body went limp, and she fainted immediately. Aunt Wang quickly went to strangle the person. Uncle Wang said angrily: "Why are you so powerful? Opening and closing your mouth can kill people! Your aunt is the one who died." , your old lady may not be able to recover! She must be merciful and merciful, your aunt has admitted her mistake, why not be lenient? "
Minglan refused to let go of her father who was trying to escape death. She pulled Sheng Hong's sleeve hard and said loudly: "Dad, you are talking!"
Sheng Hong had no choice but to straighten his face: "Brother, what you said is wrong. Your sister's life is life, but my mother's life is not life. According to what my uncle said, all you have to do is admit your mistake. Then why did Caishikou kill so many people? His head?!" He really didn't want to go against his mother-in-law, so he said, "My mother-in-law is not feeling well, so let my uncle make the decision on this matter. My mother can't be harmed in vain!"
Uncle Wang's eloquence was not as good as that of his brother-in-law, and he stopped asking questions after just two sentences. Aunt Wang helped her husband speak up and said gently: "Why are you so tense? After all, the old lady in law hasn't had any accidents, right?"
Minglan nodded: "Our Sheng family is not ruthless and unreasonable. If by luck, the old lady survives, my father will not let my aunt die. But the imperial doctor said that the ginkgo sprout juice is very powerful. Even if I save a life, I can't guarantee that my hands and feet will not be paralyzed. If that's the case..." She sneered, "Just ask my aunt to use her hands and feet to counteract it!"
Aunt Wang took a breath. She didn't expect this little girl to be so cruel. In addition, she was not sincere in interceding for her aunt, so she was speechless. It was useless to see her daughter-in-law, so Mrs. Wang could only wake up. '.
Since her pleas were in vain, she darkened her face and said: "My uncle is now prosperous and his family business is getting more prosperous. He doesn't take his wife seriously anymore! Well, you are a filial piety. If you insist on using our Wang family to achieve your good reputation, I will But we can't ignore the feelings of our flesh and blood. Let me ask you today, what if I don't obey?"
Sheng Hong took a deep look at everyone in the Wang family: "Since we can't keep it private, let's keep it public."
These days, he finally figured out one thing. In fact, once word spread about Mrs. Sheng's poisoning, it would be a scandal for every family of Prince Sheng Kang, but the impact would vary greatly.
Minglan was a married woman and was the least affected; the Sheng family was the victim and was affected the least, but because of the Wang family, she was inevitably accused of being "muddleheaded and careless" and had to be criticized and ridiculed; the Kang family was older, but There was no guarantee that Kang's brother-in-law would not survive by docking his tail, so the Kang and Wang family were solved with a divorce letter.
"My family has been clean for generations. How can we tolerate such a poisonous woman? I have long wanted to give up. I only tolerate it for the sake of the Yue family." - Sheng Hong even thought of the lines for the brother-in-law.
The most influential among them is actually the Wang family.
What a serious crime it is to murder one's parents. Two daughters of the Wang family are involved in it. One is the mastermind behind the execution, while the other is the mastermind and plotter with evil intentions. What will happen to the Wang family's father's official reputation from now on? It's hard to say, even Mrs. Wang is enshrined in the Fengxian Hall. All the tablets in the Mingchen Temple will be removed. Didn’t Mr. Li Ge’s tablets be removed twenty years after his death because of his unfaithful children and grandchildren?
The Wang couple also has two eldest daughters, both of whom are married to well-known families. Once this matter spreads, will their life in their husband's family be easy? What's more, there are many Wang family members.
Sheng Hong glanced at Uncle Wang and his wife again, and thought to himself, even if his mother-in-law is willing to risk everything to protect her daughter, others may not be willing.
In fact, he also wanted to seek justice for the old lady, if only the cost could be smaller.
At this point, since we can't smooth things over, we must be confident. We can't let others bite back and see his original thoughts, saying that he "doesn't care about his aunt's kindness and doesn't think about repaying it." If he wants to repay his kindness, he must Broadsheet.
What's more, in the final analysis, it is the daughter of the Wang family who is at fault and not the Sheng family. If there is bleeding, the Wang family should bleed. Why should the Sheng family knock out their teeth and swallow blood!? It is best to deal with the Kang and Wang family quickly. Minglan vented her anger. The Wang family also acquiesced, and then the three families suppressed the matter together. After that, the world was at peace! Amitabha!
Understanding the truth, Sheng Hong immediately had a face full of pain, a hint of anger, and some deep discouragement, "I have always passed down poems and books to my family, and all my children in the family have been taught virtues. I didn't expect that something like this would happen in the year of destiny. ..." He let out a long sigh, "I'm really tired. If my mother-in-law really can't understand, just report to the government!"
Aunt Wang rolled her eyelids fiercely, and just as she was about to speak, Mrs. Wang sneered: "I know what you are thinking, and I don't dare to make a big deal out of the Wang family. Think about it carefully, after all, his eldest aunt is just an in-law. Your mother is not dead, but his eldest aunt died after being tortured and exiled. If we try a little more, we can always get a light sentence. But your daughter-in-law is the daughter-in-law of a direct relative! What kind of crime should a daughter-in-law commit for murdering her mother-in-law?! You compare I know better! What about her child?"
Sheng Hong was startled and felt half cold.
Mrs. Wang looked at her mother in disbelief and said blankly: "...Mom, you want me to die to save your sister?" She has felt that her mother loves her sister more than she did since she was a child, but she never thought it was true.
Mrs. Wang didn't want her youngest daughter to die. She was just competing with her son-in-law to see who was more ruthless and more generous. She forced the Sheng family to take a step back so that both daughters could be saved. At this moment, she couldn't explain in detail. I could only harden my heart, not even looking at my little daughter, and sneered at Sheng Hong: "My uncle is a Jinshi and is familiar with the law. What kind of crime is it for a daughter-in-law to murder her mother-in-law?"
Sheng Hong's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he put his hands on his knees - after all, they had been married for decades, and they couldn't bear it anymore; not to mention that it would affect his most important long-term career.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wang became even more powerful and said loudly: "It's really a big deal, no one is in trouble! My good son-in-law should think about it carefully." After threatening her, she said in a soft voice, "This matter is a mess. Damn it, your mother is a blessed person and can definitely turn danger into safety. Only a few of us in this room know about this matter. When your mother wakes up, there is no need to tell her, so as not to make her sad and sick... Sigh. , I will definitely punish his eldest aunt severely when I get back, and ask your wife to be filial to her parents-in-law. From now on, we will still be a Hemei family, right?"
Sheng Hong was shaken so much that he couldn't help but look at Minglan. Minglan's fingers trembled slightly with anger, blood surged in her chest, and a nausea came up her throat. She really wanted to vomit on Mrs. Wang's hateful face.
Mrs. Wang followed Sheng Hong's gaze and knew that the joint was on Minglan, so she pretended to be kind and said: "Good boy, I know you are filial and I want to give my grandmother an explanation. But how did your wife raise you?" For more than ten years, you can't bear to see her die a good death? And your eldest brother and sister, who are blood relatives, how do you want them to deal with themselves if you insist on making things worse? "
This remark was half-persuasion and half-threat. Minglan sneered in her heart. If she was afraid, she wouldn't have made it this far. At worst, she would have no father, no mother, no brothers and no sisters. It made her angry. As soon as she left the house, she would take Just stab Aunt Kang to death with a hairpin and that’s it!
She took a deep breath and was about to sneer at the old woman when she heard a familiar young male voice coming from the door - "You are in trouble. Don't worry, sister."
I saw Chang Bai wearing a half-worn green robe, with messy temples and a weathered face. He seemed to be rushing all the way. Behind him was a tall man in a scarlet python robe, but who was it but Gu Tingye?
She stood up excitedly. When Wang saw her son, she felt ashamed but relieved, and cried: "My son, you are here!" At this moment, she truly felt that her son was the most reliable.
When Minglan saw her husband, she didn't know whether she was happy or sad. In just a few days of separation, there were many ups and downs like waves. Seeing him again seemed like a lifetime ago. She thought that she had ordered the guards of the Hou Mansion and sealed the Mansion without permission. She was trying to catch someone again and got into big trouble. She lowered her head and said, "Isn't the Marquis at the camp in the western suburbs?"
Gu Tingye first saluted Sheng Hong with clasped fists, and then made a simplified version of the bow with Mrs. Wang and Uncle Wang. He walked to his wife in two steps: "Mr. Gongsun reported to me. I quickly took leave and came over."
"It's okay." Minglan felt guilty, causing him to put down his business and rush over.
Gu Tingye smiled and said: "As long as there is no war, military generals are better than civil servants."
Mrs. Wang had a smile on her lips. She saw Mrs. Wang holding her son and crying and laughing, and she felt happy - her grandson was here, and no one dared to embarrass her daughter. After a few more glances, she saw Gu Tingye standing there, frowning slightly. I frowned, thought for a moment, and decided to get rid of this powerful grandson-in-law first.
Over there, Gu Tingye was frowning and looking at Minglan: "Why do you look so bad?" When he went out, he was still a plump, rosy apple. In just three or two days, he turned pale and thin and became a little cabbage.
Mrs. Wang quickly said: "Girl Ming is really tired from taking care of her old lady. Now that Gu Hou is here, let's take her back to have a good rest."
Minglan said coldly: "Old madam, don't be busy chasing people away. The matter is not over yet?"
Mrs. Wang glanced at Chang Bai with a threatening look: "You are a married woman, so please stop worrying about your mother's family's affairs."
Minglan was extremely angry and stretched out a hand in front of her to stop her.
"A married woman has nothing to do with her mother's family?" Gu Tingye looked indifferently, "Then what is the old lady doing here?"
Minglan was stunned and almost laughed, this guy distorted the proposition.
Mrs. Wang snorted coldly and pointed at Minglan: "This girl used to be respectful and filial, but after marrying into the Hou family, she didn't take her parents' family seriously and actually contradicted her elders again and again! I guess she took advantage of Gu Hou's power! "
"Oh, really?" Gu Tingye said expressionlessly, "I also think Minglan is respectful and filial. What did the old lady do to make such a good-tempered person like my wife angry?"
Ming Lan stared at the man with her mouth wide open, and the room fell silent. Sheng Hong's face looked as if he had been hit by a stick. The corners of Uncle Wang's mouth twitched. Even Mrs. Wang stopped talking. Everyone in the room had a look of astonishment.
Mrs. Wang was so angry that she slapped the handrail and shouted loudly: "A woman who talks about beating or killing someone dares to detain her aunt and use lynching. What kind of truth is this!?"
Gu Tingye said sternly: "Minglan has always been timid. She didn't even dare to listen to the sound of killing a chicken (Aunt Kang: You're talking nonsense). She was afraid of blood for a long time. Dare I ask the old lady, why did my aunt force her to this point!?"
After saying that, he shook his head with a very sad look on his face, as if he regretted why the elders these days are no longer like their elders.
Minglan looked up at the man beside her. His tall figure blocked out the sunlight that came into the room at noon, shielding her from the wind and rain, making her extremely safe. Her heart felt sour and warm, and she wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
It felt uncomfortable to fight alone. Now, she finally knew that she was not alone.
Gu Tingye looked at the Wang family members one by one. Kang Jin caught his gaze and couldn't help but take a step back.
He just heard him say in a cold voice: "My aunt did such an unforgivable thing, and I understand that the old lady is in a bad mood. But you shouldn't take it out on an honest person. Are you trying to deceive me into thinking that there is no one in the Gu family?"
Mrs. Wang has never seen such a reversal of right and wrong. Ever since she entered the Sheng Mansion, it has been your wife who has been persecuting the Wang family! She was so angry that she was shaking all over, her face turned blue and purple, and she was speechless for a moment.
Gu Tingye actually turned around and smiled at Minglan: "You're not scared, are you?"
Wiping away the sour emotions in her heart, Ming Lan was so happy that she couldn't be more happy. She wanted to rush up to him and kiss him hard!
——Then, she lowered her long eyelashes, frowned her thin brows, held the handkerchief in her pale and weak hands, and said in a sad and helpless voice, "I never knew... that there were such vicious people in this world...
"
Gu Tingye had a look of pity on his face, like an old hen looking at a little chick with sparse fluff, his eyes so tender that they almost melted with water, and sighed, "It's so pitiful that I haven't even seen chickens being killed, and now I see people poisoning and killing people."
"
This couple…
Everyone was almost vomiting blood - your poor, weak, timid wife was quarreling with others with a venomous face just now. You wanted to kill Kang Wang to save her life, and you wanted to cut off her hands and feet!
