Chapter 961 Unacceptable
I don't know if it's because someone is pushing behind the scenes, or the people in the rich and powerful families in the capital are too boring.Two days later, almost all the dignified people in the capital knew that the concubine's daughter of the Grand Master of the Duke's Mansion, and now Grandma Ji Si opened a construction company, and the loss was a mess, and it had been a long time since workers and craftsmen were paid. wages.

This is not the key point, the key point is that this Grandma Ji Si has a generous dowry, but she is reluctant to take out the money to pay the workers' wages.Instead, he encouraged the workers of the construction company to pester his father Ye Hongyang, which made Ye Hongyang helpless and had no choice but to order his servants to steal the utensils in the house and go to the pawnshop to pawn them.

There are even rumors that this construction company under the name of Grandma Ji Si was also opened by her to trick her father into selling the property of the Duke's mansion for money.

Such a cheating daughter made people drop their jaws in this patriarchal era.In a short period of time, this matter was widely circulated.

The broad masses of the people, using their extraordinary imagination, conceived different kinds of wonderful versions, all of which said how immoral and unfilial the fourth grandma of the Ji family was.

Remember this key point, it is the fourth grandma of the Ji family who is being blamed, but the Ye family of Anguo Gongfu, who raised Ye Xinyi, is the victim.

Mrs. Zhou has received strange gazes for several days, and she is still surprised, what is the situation, why are there problems with the eyes of many female relatives these days?
Then, she listened to the rumors outside that the personal nurse evaded.

The news that the personal nurse told her has already turned into something. Grandma Ji Si was also innocent in the first place, and she never thought of losing her wages.But the Ji family's family style is very strict, and she dare not use the dowry that exists in the Ji family to do things related to merchants and handicrafts.

So those craftsmen only found the Grand Master of the Duke's Mansion, which is really understandable.

Mrs. Zhou was trembling with anger, she, Ye Xinyi, could be forgiven for doing such a thing, the Ji family was the one who co-authored it, harsh on her, even plotting her dowry?
Annoyed, Mrs. Zhou immediately sent someone to come to Ye Xinyi for questioning. She was still not relieved, so she called the nanny beside her and gave some instructions.

Since Dongze Construction could no longer continue, Ye Xinyi really didn't want to save it anymore.If it is wages, I am even more reluctant to give it.

She originally thought that her father, Ye Hongyang, was also a member of the Duke's Mansion anyway, so it would be best for him to pay the wages in advance, and she could then sell the construction company.

Even if Ye Hongyang couldn't pay, even those poor craftsmen who relied on hard work for a living would not dare to challenge the rich and powerful in the capital.

But how did she know that someone was behind this matter, even if she paid her wages, troubles could happen, let alone she wanted to renege on her debt.

Mrs. Zhou didn't know about those rumors, but she knew about them early in the morning.From the moment she heard the vague rumors, she was worried about the moment Mrs. Zhou came to her.

Now, she has been completely neglected by Mrs. Zhou, and even the morning and evening Dingshou, which Mrs. Zhou values ​​most, is exempted, and she is the only one exempted.

If this had happened in the past, Ye Xinyi would have been happier with such a good thing when Ye Hongyang was still the eldest son.But at this time, it was obvious that her mother-in-law didn't even want to look at her. That's why she was isolated from Zhou's family affairs.

Mrs. Zhou's eldest maid, Qinglian, was waiting outside, while Ye Xinyi was changing clothes in the inner room, while looking anxiously at the hourglass.Damn it, why did my mother-in-law have an attack at this time? If her son, Brother Sheng, was there, and she took Brother Sheng to see her mother-in-law, maybe her mother-in-law would restrain herself a little in front of Brother Sheng.

However, Brother Sheng went to study ethnology, and at this time, there was still some time before school was over.And my husband is preparing for the next year's scientific examination, and he is not in the mansion, so it seems that there is no hope.

Qinglian's voice came in: "Qing'er, I don't know how long it will take for fourth grandma to leave, Madam is waiting there."

Ye Xinyi gritted her teeth secretly, as the saying goes: Stretching out the head is a stab, and shrinking the head is also a stab, since you can't hide, then let's go.

Mrs. Zhou was very serious in the past, but now her face was even more stern than ever. There were three other daughters-in-law of the Ji family in the room, sitting on the brocade stool one by one, with their maids standing behind them.

Ye Xinyi also brought her maids, but the two maids were blocked from the door.She had no choice but to enter the door alone, and according to the rules, she paid homage to Mrs. Zhou.

Madam Zhou lowered her eyes and said coldly, "Get up."

Ye Xinyi stood up and lowered her head, not looking at the sisters-in-law who were sitting aside and watching her.

In the past when her father was the eldest son, she always sat on the brocade stool closest to Mrs. Zhou, and the other older sisters-in-law had to sit on her lower head.

At that time, Mrs. Zhou said that because she was young, she was allowed one or two.Thinking about it now, it's really ridiculous.

The room remained silent for a while, and the atmosphere was extremely dignified and embarrassing.

Ye Xinyi felt that she was almost out of breath, and Madam Zhou finally opened her mouth, with a still cold voice: "I told you before, I asked you to give that construction job to whom, how did you do it?"

"My daughter-in-law," Ye Xinyi said after deliberating, "that day the mother gave orders to the daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law told the steward to ask the construction workers to go to Anguo Gong's mansion if they have something to do."

Mrs. Zhou slapped her palm on the table and said angrily: "The construction business is recorded in your name? You pushed it clean!"

Ye Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "My natal father paid for the construction company originally, and it was recorded in the daughter-in-law's name, and it was just for the convenience of the daughter-in-law when she was in charge."

This is the rhetoric she had thought up a long time ago. If she wanted to come to Ji's family, no matter how good her reputation was, and no matter how incompetent her father was, Ji's family would not dare to ask An Guogong's son to confront him privately.

Besides, most of the money to buy this construction company was paid by her father, so her words are completely justified.

Mrs. Zhou was even more angry. That day at the Temple of Mercy, Ye Xinyan once said that her four daughters-in-law bought the construction company in order to deal with her sister-in-law, and they tricked Ye Hongyang into privately selling the goods to get the money. .

The current rumors coincide with Ye Xinyan's words and Ye Xinyi's excuse. What does this mean?It shows that Ye Xinyan is right.

"That's the father who gave birth to you, raised you, and loves you. How dark is your heart, that you can be so ruthless as to deceive him?" Mrs. Zhou yelled angrily.

Ye Xinyi lowered her head, her face was burning hot.She knew without looking up how happy her three sisters-in-law were now.How much she was favored in Ji's family back then, now she enjoys having three sisters-in-law.

Just because her father is no longer the prince of An Guogong, and cannot inherit the title of An Guogong in the future, her status in the Ji family will plummet, and she will not need face at all, and can reprimand her in front of everyone!
This is the Ji family, known for its elegance and elegance for generations!
Next, Mrs. Zhou said something even worse: "Why was I so blind at the beginning, why didn't I see that you are such an unvirtuous and unfilial woman?"

Ye Xinyi raised her head in astonishment, and looked at Mrs. Zhou in disbelief: "Mother, mother..." The mother-in-law always advertises that she has a supreme moral education, how could she say such a thing?
What happened next was even more difficult for her to imagine, or even accept.
