Aunt Ding cried continuously for three days, and her beautiful eyes were already red and swollen. At this time, she cried silently under the candlelight: "...Wen Qi, why is my life so miserable."
here we go again!
During these three days, Aunt Ding kept complaining about herself. Whenever she opened her mouth, she would talk endlessly.
Wen Qi resisted the urge to yawn and cheered up, "Don't be too sad, auntie."
Aunt Ding seemed unaware and cried with red eyes: "I only have a son like Yuanting, and he begged me, but I couldn't refuse. I originally thought that Ming Niang was talented and outstanding in academics, but she just missed it occasionally.
The monthly exam is nothing. I never thought it would get to this point."
"Ming Niang is so cruel! She doesn't even understand my mother's difficulties at all, and she is so cruel to her brother. I was grounded, and Yuanting was also locked up in the yard. This delay,
Classwork will plummet again."
"My life is really miserable, having given birth to such an ignorant and unfilial daughter..."
Even though Wen Qi was devoted to her master, she was speechless when she heard these words.
What does it mean to be sensible and filial?
Is it possible to be sensible and filial by letting your own mother scheme?
There is no such truth in the world! No matter how selfless you are, you cannot sacrifice yourself to help others.
However, the truth must not be told at this time. Wen Qi echoed against her will: "That's what my aunt said."
Aunt Ding repeated these words over and over again, getting smoother and smoother. Afterwards, even Aunt Ding herself felt that Xie Mingxi could not forgive her, her own mother.
As for putting croton powder in snacks, Aunt Ding didn't mention a word.
After Aunt Ding finished crying and scolding Xie Mingxi, she started crying again for Xie Jun: "...In the past, the master loved me the most and was never willing to get angry with me. He couldn't bear it for a day or two, so he came to Lanxiang Garden. This time, he continued to
He hasn’t been here for three days.”
Wen Qi reluctantly reminded: "The master has said personally that he will ground my aunt for half a year. How can she be soft-hearted in just three days? No matter how anxious the aunt is, she has to wait patiently for a while. When the master softens her heart, she will naturally
Come and see my aunt."
This is true.
Xie Jun is in his prime and cannot live without someone to take care of him. If he can't bear it for long, he will definitely come to see her.
Aunt Ding wiped her tears with her sleeves: "He won't come tonight, so I'd better rest!"
…
Aunt Ding, who was grounded, could not take even one step out of Lanxiang Courtyard. The maids and servants in the mansion could not enter Lanxiang Courtyard. Therefore, Aunt Ding had no idea that the considerate Mrs. Xu had bought two maids and sent them to her.
Xie Jun's side.
However, Aunt Ding soon found out.
Early the next morning, Aunt Ding had just finished washing her clothes and had not had time to have breakfast when Mrs. Xu came.
There are two keys to the iron lock on the gate of Lanxiang Courtyard. Both of them were originally in Xie Jun's hands. This morning, Xie Jun, who had slept soundly, gave one of the keys to Mrs. Xu.
When Aunt Ding saw Mrs. Xu, her heart was filled with hatred. Since Xie Jun was coming anyway, Aunt Ding simply skipped the salute and sneered: "What are you doing here?"
Aunt Ding was the aunt and niece of Mr. Xie's first wife. Naturally, Mrs. Xu didn't like her. She deliberately smiled and said: "You were grounded by Ajun and could only stay in Lanxiang Courtyard all day. I was afraid that you would be too depressed, so I came here specially."
Let me talk to you."
Aunt Ding sneered: "I won't worry about it for you. When you have time, why not teach your children and grandchildren more and let them stay peacefully in Xie's mansion and don't go out and embarrass themselves."
When it comes to quarrels, Mrs. Xu has never been afraid of anyone. She responded with a smile: "Although my children and grandchildren are not smart, they are very kind-hearted. They will never do anything to frame their sisters."
Things come up."
Aunt Ding felt as if she had been stabbed by a fine needle, and anger suddenly appeared in her eyes: "You..."
"You are the only one who regards that ungrateful bastard Xie Yuanting as a treasure."
Xu's eyes were full of contempt: "You have a thief's heart but no courage. Once something happens, I will blame everything on you. Such a bastard is not worthy of carrying Ming Niang's shoes. You have a good daughter like Ming Niang, but you don't know
Cherish her and just abuse her. Sooner or later you will regret it!"
However, Aunt Ding couldn't hear a word and opened her mouth to say: "She is my daughter after all. She just holds grudges for a moment, but as time goes by, she forgets them. She can't let go of me as my biological mother!"
That’s hard to say!
Xie Mingxi does not seem to be a soft-hearted master!
He even managed to arrange a maid for his father's marriage. This shows that he has completely lost his heart towards Aunt Ding.
Mrs. Xu said in a cool tone: "I'm waiting to see if you regret it!"
Aunt Ding looked at each other angrily.
…
Mrs. Xu narrowed her eyes and suddenly laughed: "By the way, I came here specially, and there is one more thing I want to tell you. You are grounded, and it won't work if there is no one around Ajun to take care of you. I specially called Yabozi to come to the door and buy
I have two young and lively maids. Ajun is also impatient, so he took them away last night..."
What?
Aunt Ding's head was pounding, and her pretty face quickly lost color: "You, you are talking nonsense! The master said that marrying the princess is a last resort. He likes me in his heart, and will never take a concubine again in this life.
Recruit a maid from the same house."
"He would never do this to me!"
"You must be talking nonsense!"
Mrs. Xu looked at Aunt Ding with pity: "You can't believe what a man says. Xie Jun's father also said the same thing back then. After that, he slept with one maid after another."
Aunt Ding's face was pale, her whole body was shaking, she moved her lips, but couldn't squeeze out a single word.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xu felt happy. She pretended to be kind and comforted: "Don't be sad. Men, it is inevitable to be greedy for novelty. You can survive for the first half of the year, and when the confinement is lifted, you can give me a good hug, Ah Jun.
Maybe I’ll come to Lanxiangyuan again.”
Aunt Ding suddenly screamed, with hatred in her eyes, and she rushed forward.
Mrs. Xu was on guard for a long time and dodged with agility that was incompatible with her age. Then she roared at the maid beside her: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you drag her down faster?"
Now the person in charge of the family is the Xu family. The maids did not dare to disobey the orders. They looked at each other and stepped forward to grab the crazy Aunt Ding.
Wen Qi whispered urgently: "Auntie, calm down first, don't panic!"
How can Aunt Ding calm down?
Back then, she had to endure the humiliation and give in, so that was it. Princess Yongning had been suppressing her all these years, and she had endured it. Now, Xie Jun ignored the oath of family alliance and started to use the maids of the common room. How could she endure it?
"I want to go out! I want to see Xie Jun! I want to ask him face to face whether he still has any conscience?" Aunt Ding screamed in a stern voice, tears gushing out of the corners of her eyes and sliding down her cheeks.
"For so many years, I endured my anger for him. How could he do this to me?"
