Chapter 66
"I understood that it was not easy for you to give birth to Brother Zhuo, but I indulged you for several years. Once you returned to the capital, you became lawless!"
"What's the matter? With the support of your mother-in-law, you don't take me as your mother-in-law seriously?"
"If you think you can't stay in the Xia family, I'll send you back to the Lu family!"
As soon as Lin Yunwan and Wei arrived in Lu Jia's yard, they heard Mrs. Xia giving a lecture.
Judging from the sound, she was scolding Lu Jia in the yard.
Mrs. Wei complained: "There are servants in the yard!"
"Oh, Mrs. Xia really doesn't give Jia'er face."
She was anxious and wanted to rush in, but then she remembered that this was someone else's house, so she didn't know how to go in and turned away.
"Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law doesn't dare."
Lu Jia held back her tears and lowered her head to admit her mistake. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Her mother-in-law said she wanted to divorce her, how dare she!
Xia Ji has always been filial, but the relationship between her and her husband has become weak again, and the trouble may not be able to end.
Mrs. Xia snorted coldly and said reluctantly: "You don't dare? I think you are too brave! You can't tolerate a concubine coming back?"
"What your husband did was wrong, and you, as the head wife, should give her good advice. That woman's status is not legitimate, and you are the head wife, so you can just send her away with dignity."
"Look at how you scratched your husband's face! Can he still see people? He is a man, he has an official status, he is not a trafficker and a pawn!"
"I punish you by copying the book several times, but you still dare to pretend to be sick."
Lu Jia bit her lip and retorted, her voice weak: "...Mother, I, I feel really uncomfortable."
Mrs. Xia sneered: "So are you comfortable now? I just banned your feet, and you dared to leave the yard without permission? And you are still dictating to the mother in charge!"
"In the past few years, I have really allowed you to know that the sky is high and the earth is high!"
Lu Jia wanted to talk back, but Roujuan pulled her back.
But her eyes still angered Mrs. Xia. The old lady said coldly: "If you disobey again, go back to the Lu family. Brother Zhuo doesn't need you to raise him anymore. There are more women who can be his aunts." .”
This hit Lu Jia's weak spot, and she turned pale and dared not speak anymore.
Mrs. Xia finished training her eldest daughter-in-law and walked towards the courtyard gate.
Mrs. Wei dragged Lin Yunwan and hid quickly.
After Mrs. Xia had gone far away, she pulled Lin Yunwan out, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and whispered, "Why is my mother-in-law so powerful?" She pulled Lin Yunwan and said, "Let's go and see your eldest sister!"
Lin Yunwan followed.
Lu Jia smashed a tea set in the room, but she didn't dare to smash a large vase.
Even if the small thing is broken, just forget it, and a few taels of silver will make up for it. If the expense is too big, Mrs. Xia will not listen to her.
After smashing it, I started crying.
"Why is my life so miserable!"
Roujuan advised: "Madam, don't cry..." She didn't want to add fuel to the fire, but in recent years, the master has really lost his sense of importance, so she couldn't help but said: "You know the old lady values the rules. Even though you have given birth to Brother Zhuo, you can't challenge the old lady again and again."
Lu Jia cried louder, her shoulders shaking.
Roujuan reminded her in a panic: "Madam, Mrs. Hou and Mrs. Shizi are here!"
Lu Jia was still a little dazed. She raised her head and stared at Lin Yunwan with a messy face.
"Auntie, I heard that you are sick. My mother-in-law and I came to see you."
Lu Jia was just a little embarrassed at first, but Wei sighed and said, "Jia'er, we all heard it." She was even more embarrassed!
Roujuan said: "Madam, grandma, you two have a rest for a while, and I will wait for you to wash your face before you come back."
Mrs. Wei pulled Lin Yunwan and sat down.
Roujuan helped the confused Lu Jia back to her room to dress up again.
After waiting for two quarters of an hour, Lu Jia came out, washed her face, her eyes were very red and swollen, her hair was very plain, without hairpins, she didn't need to go out anyway, so it didn't matter if she didn't dress up.
As soon as she came out, she glared at Lin Yunwan and said, "Now you are proud!"
Wei said: "Jia'er, why are you talking? Yun Wan and I are here to care about you."
Lu Jia didn't want to lose his temper with his aunt, so he said, "Mother, I really don't feel well. You can go back."
"My daughter will apologize to you another day. My daughter wants to rest."
Mrs. Wei understood very well that anyone who was scolded by her mother-in-law would not be happy, so she said, "Then let's go first, and you can have a good rest."
She tried to persuade her again: "Your mother-in-law is right. If you are an unruly concubine, just send him away. Why bother to fight with my uncle? If word spreads, people will only say that you are not virtuous."
Lu Jia almost spat out a mouthful of blood and cried angrily: "Mother, he has an extramarital affair! How else can I be so generous!"
Lin Yunwan sighed and said: "Sister has always been dignified and virtuous, and has never been a jealous person. Mrs. Xia is old. Either I, the sister, said something to you, or my aunt's mother-in-law didn't say anything. You should take the initiative to deal with this. thing."
"Now the family is in trouble, the relationship between husband and wife is not harmonious, and it has embarrassed my eldest son-in-law. You, the head wife, are eight times at fault."
"you you!"
Lu Jia's eyes widened, how dare Lin Yunwan talk to her like this!
Are these still human words?
After hearing this, Mrs. Wei thought it made sense and said, "Jia'er, take Yun Wan's words to heart."
"You should just copy the books at home. Your siblings and I will go back first."
She pulled Lin Yunwan away again, not forgetting to tell Lin Yunwan: "Don't spread rumors about your aunt. If the Xia family really divorces her, I will cause trouble for you!"
The two of them went to the banquet hall to eat together.
When we returned to Wudinghou Mansion, it was already sunset.
Lin Yunwan went out and left Tao Ye to watch the yard. As soon as she and Ping Ye came back, Tao Ye rushed out and stood on the porch, looking like she had something to say.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Yunwan went in and poured a cup of tea.
Taoye whispered: "Madam, Aunt Zhuqing came here and said that the person sent by the old lady to break off the engagement for my cousin has returned."
"Oh? So fast."
Taoye said: "My aunt said she would see you right away. Do you want me to call my aunt over?"
"Invite her."
"yes."
Lin Yunwan had just given the order, but Zhu Qing had already rushed over on her own. She had a smile on her face, and her first sentence when she came in was to tell the truth: "Madam, let me guess, is my cousin's marriage going smoothly?"
"From the look of you, something isn't going well?"
Zhuqing smiled and said, "Madam is right."
She said in detail: "As soon as I came back today, I sent someone to keep an eye on the horses. There were also Yan's mother's son and the mother-in-law who came with me. I personally went to deal with them. .”
"But they are all people whom the old lady can trust. They are too strict. Although they didn't say anything, I heard that the old lady didn't know what she heard. She almost lost her breath and fainted on the spot."
"It scared Mama Yan."
Lin Yunwan pondered, is there really something wrong with Ge Baoer's background?
This was something she didn't expect.
