At this moment, everyone looked at Mrs. Wu with strange expressions.
You don't understand how you can bully others by taking advantage of your power. It's so embarrassing to be silenced by others.
"You, you..." Mrs. Wu got angry and kicked a nanny, "Get up quickly, go to Jingzhaoyin and call for the officials to come and put these blind people in jail..."
Before she could finish speaking, the good news came. He smiled and took out a jade pendant from his arms.
The jade pendant was not too big, and was engraved with dragon patterns. The sunlight from the window filtered in, allowing everyone to see clearly and gasp in shock.
A carved dragon pendant?
This can only be worn by the emperor!
Jiayin shook her jade pendant, her face full of joy, "It's great that Mrs. Wu wants to report to the government. I haven't been to the government office yet! Just when you opened your mouth, you scolded my parents and called me a little beast. You want to beat me." I, I also want to find someone to talk to.
"However, reporting to the official is troublesome. Let's go directly to Uncle Huang and let Uncle Huang help with the evaluation!" This is the jade pendant given by the emperor's uncle. You can enter the palace at any time!"
After that, she grinned, showing a small gap in her teeth, and smiled brighter at Mrs. Wu.
"Oh, I forgot to mention that I am Princess Kangle who was granted the title of Uncle Huang! My adoptive father is the Marquis of Xinting, my second uncle is the Uncle Zhongshan, my grandma is a first-grade imperial general, and my father is a fourth-grade general! Are any of them more senior than your husband? ! "
Princess Kangle?
The shopkeeper immediately straightened his back and suddenly felt that his worries just now were ridiculous.
The queen's mother's family sounds very bluffing.
But in the final analysis, this second Mrs. Wu is the wife of the second son of the Hou family. , without the backing of the Hou Mansion, their own family is nothing. On
the contrary, any one they pick out is an official with a title, and they can easily crush the second Mrs. Wu,
especially Princess Kangle . She is favored by the emperor, even more favored than the princess...
At this embarrassing moment, someone suddenly came downstairs.
A young girl brought two maids and hugged two pieces of silk. Suddenly, she saw such a strange situation on the second floor. The young girl was also startled.
Seeing how embarrassed Mrs. Wu was, she hurried forward, frowned and asked: "Mother, what happened?
Mrs. Wu seemed to have seen her savior. She grabbed the young girl and shouted: "Lian'er, they are bullying others with their power! " I didn't like the presence of foxes in the store, so they started beating my mother-in-law and me!
"Look, this is the Li family, Princess Kangle! If you don't try to marry the Marquis, the Marquis's mansion will fall into the hands of this dead girl!
"Don't you like the Marquis? Are you deceived by these mud-legged people? Go and beg your cousin, be Mrs. Hou and step on them! "
Needless to say, this young girl is Wu Bilian.
Her mother's words were unbridled, and her face turned red with embarrassment. Then she looked up and saw Li Laosi and his wife looking at her with curiosity in their eyes. Jiayin even had eyes wide open. Light.
It was obvious that all three members of the family knew about her identity and the fact that she admired the Marquis and was rejected. She became more and more embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in.
She tried her best to cover her mother's mouth, regardless of etiquette. He shouted in a low voice: "Mother, if you don't want me to hit you to death, just stop talking! Let's go, let's go quickly!"
"Whatever we're going to do, they're going to go! Damn girl, it's all your failure! "Mrs. Wu broke away from her daughter's hand and wanted to continue scolding her.
Wu Bilian couldn't stop her. Thinking that what happened today would reach the ears of the Marquis...
she was really desperate. She really picked up her skirt and ran towards the window. Go over!
"Lian'er!" "Second Mrs. Wu was frightened and wanted to stop her, but she was a step too late. Fortunately, Jiayin threw the little fox out in an emergency.
The little fox ran over to Wu Bilian's shoulder and bumped her head. Wu Bilian's body tilted. Not only did she not jump out of the window, she bumped into the chair next to her.
There was an eerie silence in the room for a moment, and then Mrs. Wu rushed up and started shaking her daughter crazily, "Unfilial girl, if something happens to you, how will I live?"
Wu Bilian turned pale, and she was so embarrassed and angry that she suddenly woke up. When he came over, he felt scared and his hands were trembling, "Mom, let's go home. If you keep making trouble, I will really die. Save some face for yourself and a way for me to survive!
"You are making trouble. If everyone knows about this, then our family will be resisting the decree. When the government of the town finds out, I will really not be able to live!
She grabbed her mother's arm, with tears in her eyes, "Mom, aren't you just a marquis wife? If I marry to the Duke's Mansion, I will be the Duke's wife from now on! " Please don't always think about your own face, please save my life! "
I don't know whether it was because of her daughter's persuasion or because she was really afraid that something would happen to her, but Mrs. Wu actually didn't continue to make trouble.
Wu Bilian stood up, saluted the three members of the Li family, and apologized in a low voice, "I'm sorry, my mother has a bad temper. If there is any offense, I apologize on her behalf. "
After that, she turned to Jiayin, with a flash of deep-hidden envy in her eyes. She lowered her head and thanked her, "I couldn't think about it just now. Thank you, Princess, for saving me. "
Li Laosi couldn't talk to a girl, so he took a step back, leaving Tao Hongying to deal with it.
Thinking of the situation just now, she was a little angry and said: "Miss Wu, the current emperor is the most wise and wise. If your palace is outside, You always act so arrogantly, maybe even the Queen will be embarrassed, right?
"Today, we still have some confidence to protect ourselves from being bullied and our children from being beaten and scolded. If it had been anyone else, half of our lives would have been lost by now!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Wu, of course, Unconvinced, he wanted to speak, but his daughter glared at him so hard that he swallowed his words back in shock.
Wu Bilian bowed her head again and saluted, and said to the three members of the Li family: "Thank you, Madam Jin Yu, for your kind words. I'm really sorry for today. If there is a chance in the future, my little girl will definitely come to apologize."
After that, she took her mother and brought her grandma and maid. We went downstairs.
A few guests who were watching the fun, maybe because they were afraid of being offended, smiled dryly and left.
Li Laosi paid the money and Tao Hongying took the things.
Li Laosi has not forgotten to apologize to the shopkeeper, "I'm sorry, shopkeeper, for delaying the business of the store."
The shopkeeper was frightened, and quickly saluted and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you're welcome, open the door for business, what's the matter? I can meet you all. It is really a sin to have affected your interest today. If you come here when you are free in the future, I will treat you well."
Li Laosi and Tao Hongying nodded, greeted the good news and went downstairs.
Jiayin nodded towards the old shopkeeper and thanked him with a smile, "Thank you so much, shopkeeper. I will definitely come here more often in the future!"
Even the little fox chirped at the old shopkeeper.
The old shopkeeper smiled and quickly agreed, "The little old man is waiting for the princess to come."
The family of three left the silver building, bought some food, and left the city for Luo'an.
Jiayin was impatient to sit in the carriage, so Tao Hongying hugged her and sat on the other side of the carriage, chatting with Li Laosi.
"The girl just now was the one who blocked the door to marry the Marquis. She looks good and is sensible. She dared to find the door of the Marquis's house. She was even more bold.
"If she hadn't been born in the Marquis's Mansion in Jiangning, she would have been so arrogant . Selfish mother, maybe marrying the Marquis is a good marriage, but what a pity! "
Jiayin also nodded. Although Tianwu is not a strict etiquette, most women follow the standards of chastity, quietness and meekness. They are like puppets and must obey the family's arrangements for everything.
This Miss Wu behaves weirdly and impulsively. She is not perfect, but she is better. Her own thoughts.
And she seems to have some affection for her adoptive father, which is different from their family's calculations, which is quite rare...
