Chapter Thirty-eight: The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked

Everyone said that he only got this position because of the Duke's Palace. After Chen Shiying's death, he relied on his own ability to successfully move from a second-rank official to a first-rank official and became the prime minister.

But no one knows, they will always remember that he is what he is today because of the government of the country.

No man can accept such remarks. He also has dignity and does not want to live in the shadow of Chen Shiying forever.

Therefore, to him, everything that happened thirteen years ago was black history, and whenever it was mentioned, he would get angry.

But seeing the old lady's ugly face, he could only suppress the anger in his heart and comforted her: "Mother, calm down first, this matter has been resolved."

"It's solved, won't the people outside laugh at our prime minister's office after it's solved!" The old lady said angrily: "They also said that they were framed. If they didn't have bad intentions and wanted to frame Yan'er, how could this happen?

"

"Usually, we just have small fights at home, but now we have lost all our humiliation to the Duke's Mansion. That Crown Prince is Yan'er's fiancé. She is a younger sister, and if she gets involved with her sister's fiancé, others will

What to say! It makes me feel sick when I hear it..."

The old lady pointed at Zhang Yunhui and her daughter, and every word she spoke was filled with disgust for the two of them.

In the past, she just didn't like Zhang Yunhui, and she was very kind to Xin Rou'er, her granddaughter. But now, she just feels that the upper beam is out of alignment and the lower beam is crooked. Her mother is a scumbag, and her daughter is no better!

Zhang Yunhui and Xin Rouer's expressions were extremely ugly as the old lady cursed them one after another.

But they couldn't speak at this time. Every word they said was likely to add fuel to the fire and make the old lady even more angry.

I can only stand obediently and be punished.

As for Xin Nianyan, after being slapped by Xin Yuanwen, she stood aside and stopped talking.

Listening to the old lady's words becoming more and more unpleasant, Xin Yuanwen only felt a headache.

When the old lady finally said she was tired, he said: "Mother, we don't want that to happen, so don't be angry. Moreover, the marriage to His Highness the Crown Prince has been changed to Rou'er. We only need to tell the outside world.

The prince's betrothed was originally Rou'er, it's just that people outside misunderstood it, and after a while everyone will forget about it, and this matter will be over."

After hearing this, the old lady's anger softened a little.

"Then His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to replace Yan'er with Rou'er?"

Xin Yuanwen said: "Of course I am willing. Besides, if something like that happened, if His Highness the Crown Prince is not responsible for Rou'er, it will also have an impact on his reputation. What's more, he and Rou'er are already in love with each other."

The old lady frowned and said with confusion: "The prince and Rou'er are in love?"

Why doesn't she believe it?

"Hasn't the prince been interested in Yan'er since Yan'er returned to Beijing?"

They all see this, otherwise they wouldn't often turn a blind eye to the prince coming to see Xin Nianyan.

Zhang Yunhui said at the right time: "Mother, you don't know something. In fact, His Highness the Crown Prince has always liked Rou'er. But at the beginning, he thought that Rou'er was still young, so he didn't let them interact with each other. Who would have thought that when Yan'er came back later, she would...

We had an exchange of feelings with the prince, so we all misunderstood, and promised Yan'er to the prince when he proposed marriage."

She said this cleverly, and suddenly she turned into Xin Nianyan, who was shameless, and snatched away the prince and his love as soon as he came back.

Xin Nianyan sneered as she listened and could not help but applaud her.

Fortunately, the old lady didn't like Zhang Yunhui no matter how she looked at her. When she heard her speak, she didn't even listen to what she said. She directly said in disgust: "Shut up!"

Zhang Yunhui choked and shut her mouth, unable to help but secretly grind her teeth.

Damn old woman!

When there is a chance in the future, she must let this old woman drink her foot-washing water!

Look how fierce she is!

The old lady took a few deep breaths and managed to calm down a little. She finally listened to Zhang Yunhui's words. Her disgusted eyes passed over Xin Rou'er and fell on Xin Nianyan.

"Yan'er." She stretched out her hand towards Xin Nianyan.

Xin Nianyan came over: "Grandma."

The old lady patted Xin Nianyan's hand, looked at the slap marks on her face and the blood-soaked gauze on her forehead, and said distressedly:

"Yan'er, it's our Xin family that feels sorry for you. Since things have come to this point and the prince also likes Rou'er, let's help them. Grandma will choose a better husband for you in the future."

Xin Nianyan smiled bitterly and nodded obediently: "Well, grandma, Yan'er knows, Yan'er has decided to help them, and won't say anything else."

"That's good, that's good, Yan'er is a sensible person." The old lady patted Xin Nianyan's hand, full of relief.

Then she couldn't help but stare at Xin Rou'er and reprimanded: "Look at your sister, look at you, you still claim to be a lady who was raised in a boudoir since she was a child, don't learn those messy things from your mother in the future, look at

What have you learned?"

He trained both of them in one sentence.

Zhang Yunhui was so angry that she dared not speak. Xin Rou'er admitted her mistake and said, "Rou'er knows she was wrong. Rou'er will learn from her sister in the future."

"Hmph, when you go back today, stay in the yard and copy all the female precepts and virtues twice. You won't be allowed to eat until you finish copying!" the old lady said again, and then looked at Zhang Yunhui:

"And you, if something like that happens, don't tell me that you don't know. Without your instructions, Chun Ju dares to drug Yan'er? You will go to the ancestral hall and kneel for me tonight, and you won't be allowed to come out until you kneel for three days.

No one is allowed to bring her food, do you hear me?"

The last sentence was said to Xin Yuanwen.

She was afraid that her son would feel sorry for this foxy girl again, so she took him out without kneeling for a while.

My mother was furious, so how could Xin Yuanwen dare to disobey: "If I know my mother, my son will send someone to watch and not let anyone bring her food."

The old lady was now satisfied. Looking at the dishes on the table, she had no intention of eating and went directly to rest.



When everyone left the Jingxin Courtyard, Xin Rouer glared at Xin Nianyan fiercely, but because Xin Yuanwen was there, she did not dare to say anything, so she had to go back to the courtyard to copy books.

Zhang Yunhui said to Xin Yuanwen: "Master, my mother asked me to train the servants for Yan'er. Is it okay if I train them first and then go to the ancestral hall?"

Her voice was soft and soft, even more charming and gentle than Xin Rou'er's before, which showed that Xin Rou'er really got her true inheritance.

There was a hint of grievance in her charming and gentle voice, hoping that Xin Yuanwen would be merciful and not let her kneel in the ancestral hall.

But Xin Yuanwen was so upset at the moment that he couldn't care less about her. He said "hmm" impatiently and strode away.

Xin Nianyan looked at Zhang Yunhui and went back in a good mood.

On the way back to Yanyun Courtyard, Xiaozhu smiled and said, "Miss, the old lady still cares about you."
