The old lady's words came one after another, which made Mrs. Qi a little confused. She stopped crying because of the loss, and looked up at her mother-in-law in front of her, "Mom, as long as you can let Shu'er stay, if you have any questions, you can
Just ask."
"Ms. Qi, you are the daughter-in-law hired by the old man for his second son. I have never had any objections to you. To be honest, my harsh words today are not directed at you. I am thinking about the future of our family.
You should also see clearly that your children are not just Xie Shuhua, but to be more clear, your children are Erlang and Si Yatou! If you could stand from their mother's perspective, you wouldn't need what I said today."
At this point, Mrs. Qi still dared to talk back, so she could only agree.
"Since you just said that, I will believe you again and give Xie Shuhua another chance, but this will also depend on your and her performance in the future."
"Yes!" Ms. Qi nodded immediately, "I listen to my mother."
"I have made it very clear just now that Xie Shuhua is not a girl from my Xie family. Now she stays here to raise her as a serious girl to fulfill the mother-daughter relationship between you and her. On this point, our Xie family still has
Take risks!
So, first of all, from now on, you must keep in mind that an adopted daughter is an adopted daughter, and there is no way she can surpass the rank of a serious girl in my Xie family. Not to mention the fourth girl, even the fifth girl, she cannot compare!"
Mrs. Qi was startled, but she immediately suppressed her emotions. In any case, it was better than being sent back to the Jiang family. She immediately nodded and said, "Yes! Listen to mother."
"Secondly, her current temperament is probably due to your overindulgence. Then don't live in Yilanyuan and move to Banxiangzhou!"
Banxiangzhou?!
The place was very remote, even more remote than Yanchundai. The most important thing was that the courtyard was small and narrow, and Shu'er had no intention of having the owner live there.
"What? No?"
At this moment, how could Ms. Qi still dare to say no? She said straight away: "No! My daughter-in-law doesn't...all listen to her mother."
"Third..." Mrs. Xie chuckled lightly, "As I said just now, she is getting older now. Since you are unwilling to leave the marriage matter to the Jiang family, then we, the Xie family, will have to take care of this matter.
Son.
I don’t care how much dowry or things you want to subsidize her privately, but your husband still has to make the decision regarding the marriage. How you two discuss it is your business, but I want to explain my position first.
.
Xie Shuhua's husband's family should not be too high. Although you have promised me well now, I still trust you and nodded in agreement. Speaking of myself...
I can't trust her, so I have no choice but to do this in order not to bring disaster to our family in the future. I hope you will be more sober and think more about your two biological children!"
The old lady seemed tired as she spoke, waving her hand and saying: "Go ahead! You still have to deal with the matter just now by yourself, so don't delay here."
Mrs. Qi felt that her knees were numb. When she stood up, the pain in both legs seemed to rush into her heart. But even so, it was not as good as the panic and fear in her heart.
The old lady directly left Xie Yuncang behind. Apparently the mother and son had something else to say. Mrs. Qi just glanced at them, and then walked out of Shou'an Hall in a daze.
Mother Liang was waiting outside and had no idea what was going on inside. Seeing her like this, she was immediately frightened and quickly asked someone to carry the carriage over.
Mrs. Qi finally woke up at this moment and stopped her quickly, "You are confused too. What will others say if I am carried back at this time?"
Seeing that she had spoken, Mother Liang felt relieved a little, and then she said nervously: "Madam, you are just talking, and it scares the old slave to death. What's going on? Is it possible that the old lady got angry?"
Seeing her concerned eyes, Mrs. Qi felt as if her soul had returned to the world of the underworld, seeing no one around her again. Finally, she couldn't help but lay on Mother Liang's body and cried bitterly, and then told what the old lady in Shou'an Hall said.
Read it again.
Hearing that the old lady was going to send Xie Shuhua back, Mother Liang was frightened, but then she calmed down after hearing what happened next.
After calming down, I felt a little happy again.
Finally, the old lady is not fainting yet, and the master is calm.
It's just that my wife can't handle things so clearly. No matter how separated she is, she will be able to put things right one day.
"What should we do now?" Ms. Qi finished crying and looked at Liang's mother worriedly, "How can I tell Shu'er? She has always been arrogant and arrogant. How can she endure such grievances?"
"Madam, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. In the current situation, do you still have a choice? Don't you understand what the old lady means? Although the old lady has been saying that she doesn't really blame you, in fact, if you think about it carefully
, her old man's arrangement really does not lie with the third girl, but with you!"
Mrs. Qi was a little confused, "What do you mean by this?"
"Old slave, I have to say something unpleasant. The third girl has lost her favor with the old lady a long time ago. Just look at the old lady's attitude towards the third girl in recent times. You should be able to tell. If she is really iron-clad,
I really want to punish the third girl, but according to her temperament, how can she listen to your plea today and argue with her? "
As she spoke, seeing a look of confusion on Mr. Qi's face, she continued: "The real target of the old lady's attack is you! She is just using the third girl as an excuse!"
This sentence was like a wake-up call for Qi, who suddenly woke up, "What?!"
"Madam, you are the head lady of our house! Regarding the matter of the third girl, the old lady is...disappointed in you," Mother Liang had to hammer the drum, "Now that the second young master is in high school, he is...
In the future, you will inherit our Xie family's family business. As the mother of the second young master, the old lady is knocking you and testing you to see how you behave from now on."
"You mean..." Ms. Qi held Mother Liang's hand tightly, "You mean, the old lady is waiting to see my attitude towards Shu'er?"
Mother Liang nodded slowly, "This is what I reminded you, madam, before. Hello, the third girl is the best. The tighter you are about the third girl, the more problems you will have."
Mrs. Qi was speechless and felt that her mind was filled with lawsuits. When she stumbled back to the Summer Palace, she fell down on her bed.
The waiters were so frightened that they hurriedly made plans to ask for the imperial doctor, but were stopped by Mrs. Qi, "No one is allowed to go, everyone is allowed to do their own thing. I want to have a good rest."
Today's Shou'antang business was a huge impact to Qi. She was completely unprepared and didn't know how to deal with it.
Just asking Shuer to move from Yilan Garden to Banxiangzhou was extremely embarrassing for her, not to mention Shuer's treatment and future marriage.
She thought of Mother Liang's words again, and combined with the way the old lady said those words today, she had to admit that Mother Liang was right.
The old lady is testing her. What she does now will directly affect her and her Shu'er's future.
She must think carefully, but no matter how much she thinks, she still has to do what needs to be done.
So when Xie Shuhua lost her temper all day and was so angry that she couldn't even eat dinner, she finally waited for Mrs. Qi to comfort her.
