This statement was like cold water entering the oil pan, which immediately made Qi scream in shock, "What?!"
She even forgot about the rules and etiquette and stared straight into the old lady's eyes, her eyes full of disbelief.
Originally, the words Xie Yuncang wanted to choose a son-in-law among those tests were transmitted from the outer courtyard. Qi was already very unhappy. Because the relationship between the couple had not been able to make a comeback, she couldn't speak rashly like Xie Yuncang, so she couldn't bear it.
I was also thinking about deciding my daughter’s marriage as soon as possible and not letting anyone be humiliated easily.
Now that the old lady talked about Xie Shuhua's marriage, she thought it was discussed by the mother and son, and she was already very nervous.
But now when she heard the old lady's words, Qi's heart was stormy. Even if she wanted to break her head, she would never have thought that the old lady would say such words.
The smile on the old lady's face had disappeared at some point, and her eyes looked at Qi with a hint of coldness, "What? Does the second wife think I'm wrong?"
right?
How could such an idea be correct?
Qi still begged quickly with the trembling voice: "No! Mother, don't be angry. What happened today is indeed Shu'er's fault. The elders ordered a little bit of a small matter, but..."
She felt that her brain suddenly seemed to be useless at this time, and she couldn't turn it no matter how hard she turned it around. "But...but...but...but we didn't agree to the Jiang family with the money to take the fourth girl over, but Shu'er didn't send it back. We gave the Jiang family a lot of money, and they..."
"I thought of it too!" The old lady seemed to sigh, "I originally thought it was nothing, but Erlang passed the Jinshi exam and was about to enter the court to become an official. My old woman has also been thinking about our future in recent days.
After thinking about it, I felt that this matter was actually done very inappropriately. Your husband was the current cabinet master, and the Jiang family was just a farmer. They could have such a daughter.
We waved our hand and gave the money and took the other person's children away. This... is unreasonable! How will the Jiang couple take care of their elderly care in the future? How can they be old without children and grandchildren?
Seeing that all our children are promising, your husband is becoming more and more motivated. If there is someone who is jealous, how can we go back and attack our family? Just one person bullies others, bullies the people, and asks the mother and son to separate them, which will be enough for the censors to write hundreds of memorials."
The old lady's words made Qi froze on the spot. She opened her eyes and looked at the old lady, her tongue as if it was tied. She couldn't say anything about refutation, so she could only turn to Xie Yuncang immediately, "Master, you, say something! This... how can this work!"
Xie Yuncang did not expect that the old lady had this idea, but his favor for Xie Shuhua had almost been exhausted. In his heart, he also hoped that someone who could find her a good family would marry her out sooner.
But no matter how he did, he didn't expect to send her back to the Jiang family. When he saw his wife's anxious and sad expression, he couldn't help but feel a little softened, but the expression on his face looked like nothing had changed, "Mother, have you... made up your mind?"
Qi was so angry that he almost collapsed to the ground. Sure enough! Xie Yuncang also disliked her Shu'er.
The old lady sighed helplessly, "For so many years, even a stone should have some feelings, but..."
Her eyes turned to Qi again, "Second wife, tell me, since this girl knew that she was not from our family, how much has happened?
That Madam Ying was brought to my house by me, but she actually framed herself with someone to frame her girl from our Xie family. You said... This is not something a well-educated girl can do?
Also, I went to Si Yatou's house to smash her things, relying on her friendship, I pulled other sisters to squeeze Si Yatou, and made trouble in front of the elders, let alone the things I did outside, these things, one by one..."
She leaned forward and looked at Qi, "If you were in my position and saw such a junior under your command, would you feel unhappy?"
I dreamed of your old man. When he mentioned the children, the one thing I thought of was her. Now even the Qi Yatou in the mansion has restrained his impatientness. He also knows to protect the face of his sisters outside. What kind of treasure is you like?
I thought of giving her another chance to send the Ksitigarbha Sutra, but you saw her attitude? What else do you want me? I naturally understand your kind motherly mentality, but I am the grandmother of this family and the elder of everyone, and I have to consider this family."
Qi felt confused. The old lady said this long passage, which made her tears fall, "Mother, mother, don't be angry. Shu'er has never figured it out. She is... She is just unbalanced. How powerful she was at home in the past. So, when she learned that she was not our girl, she couldn't turn the corner."
While crying, she walked forward two steps, grabbed the old lady's skirt and pleaded: "Mother! Give her another chance. Shu'er has been very well-behaved since she was a child. You also know that you loved her too. Didn't you love her too in the past? Teach her well, tell her more, and she will definitely be able to turn around!
She can't go to the Jiang family! She grew up in front of me since she was a child. She grew up in an environment like our family. There are countless people who serve her around her. If she throws her to the Jiang family, she will die! Mother, be kind and give her another chance!"
Qi cried so hard that he was unable to control himself, but the other two people in the room fell silent.
Xie Yuncang just looked at Qi who was crying hard with a complicated expression, but the old lady's eyes fell in the void outside the door, not knowing what she was thinking.
The people who served in the house had already disappeared completely. Everyone knew that this was the time for the three heads of the mansion, and no one dared to come in and disturb him at will.
Since Qi married into the house, he has never seen the old lady as tough as she is.
Although I have always acted quite respectfully, I was spoiled and grew up in my parents' home, so I also have my own pride in my nature.
Of course, I have never been as humble as I am now, but this is for my own daughter.
If the old lady made up her mind and Xie Yuncang decided not to object, and the two of them agreed, Shu'er would have the fate of being sent away.
She could only ask the old lady, even if she seemed so unhappy at this time.
I don’t know how long I cried, but the old lady finally spoke again, “Qi, what are you using to guarantee that she will definitely change?”
When he spoke again, the old lady changed her name directly, which made Qi feel unresponsive for a moment.
She raised her tears and looked over, and found that the old lady's face was completely serious at this moment.
"Mother... what do you want, just say, your wife will definitely listen to you."
But the old lady sneered, "What do I want to do? This is so strange. What does her relationship with me? Since you are pleading for her, you have to think about why you should plead for her and guarantee her."
Seeing that Qi was still a little stunned, the old lady said coldly: "Everyone said that the son would not teach him. The father's fault, your daughter has become like this. Isn't it your responsibility?"
