After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 409 Chapter Four Hundred and Eight Conflicts
Mrs. Zhou Ma did not allow her granddaughter Zhou Yijun and her niece Haitang to see her confront Madam Ma. Mrs. Ma also felt that the younger generation did not need to experience the curse scene, but how could Haitang be willing to miss such a thing?

As soon as Zhou Ma and Ma's team left, Haitang immediately encouraged Zhou Yijun: "Let's go and have a look too? If my aunt thinks it will be more courageous to bring a few more people, we won't lose to the servant woman? Really? If there is a quarrel, we can still help, but the servants don't dare to argue with Mrs. Ma. "

Zhou Yijun took a deep breath: "Go! When did this happen? Even if someone says you disrespect your elders, I will accept it! It is better to have a bad reputation than to lose your life!"

She grew up in the border area, so she doesn't care so much about the so-called boudoir reputation! The ladies in Chang'an City pay attention to dignity and elegance, and cannot wear skirts. But in the border town, when she and her mother needed to face enemies, didn't they still have to roll up their skirts and stab people with knives? !
The two cousins ​​​​went towards the west courtyard together. With Zhou Yijun leading the way, Haitang doesn't have to worry about anyone questioning or blocking her. When the two arrived at the gate of the west courtyard, they were only a step behind Zhou Ma and Ma. However, in the courtyard, the latter two had already had a conflict with Mrs. Ma.

Mrs. Ma probably heard what Zhou Ma said about her purpose, so she sneered and refuted it: "I don't know what the mess is. If you haven't done anything before, you haven't done it! God knows where that bitch Xiangrui got that little girl. The brochure is just fabricated and nonsense! If you think you can pour dirty water on my head with just a few nonsense words from a woman, that’s a daydream!”

Zhou Ma didn't expect that she would even deny what her old confidant said. She had spilled the beans in front of Zhou Shigong and Tu Rong that day. She thought that if she said it didn't happen now, she could really claim that she had said it. Doesn't it exist? Who are you treating as a fool? !
Zhou Ma said angrily: "What's the use of saying these words now?! Why didn't you say this in front of Tu Tongzhi that day?! If you hadn't leaked the information at that time, you could still have said that the pamphlet was forged by a servant. The whole thing was deceived. Now if you say that there is no such thing, you will really treat people as fools. It is a pity that the emperor and Tu Tongzhi will not act according to the wishes of the A family. They will not listen if they want to convict the Emen family. Ah Jia’s excuse! If Ajia continues to tell lies, it will only make the family’s crime worse. Even if A family doesn’t care about the life and death of our eldest brother, they still have to think about their second uncle, right? What's the use of talking nonsense with this daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Ma was startled for a moment, but soon she raised her head high: "Anyway, I don't know anything! I don't know any foreign spies! If I can help a few passing caravans get a customs clearance guide, that's it." There are so many people who do this in Chang'an City! If the court really accuses me of this, I will punish them. Tell them their names and see if the court can deal with them as well!"

If she really did this, many people would be implicated, and the Zhou family would be outraged in Chang'an. Even if the other clan members are fine, Sanfang will never be able to gain a foothold here. Even if you escape the punishment of the court, how will you behave in the future? !

Zhou Ma almost fainted from anger on the spot. She couldn't figure out why her step-mother-in-law was still so stubborn now. She would rather cut off everyone's escape route than tell the whole story and let everyone work together to find a way to overcome the difficulties. If the imperial court really punishes them, it will not only be their husband, wife and children who will suffer, but Mrs. Ma and her biological children and grandchildren will also not be able to escape!

Seeing Mrs. Zhou's pale face and shaky appearance, Zhou Yijun couldn't hold it in any longer and hurriedly ran forward and supported her together with Mrs. Ma. Haitang also walked up.

Madam Ma supported the eldest sister, glanced at Mrs. Ma coldly, and then said to Madam Zhou: "Eldest sister, there is no need to talk to her here. This is a confused person, talking to her in a nice voice. It's useless. In my opinion, we might as well go back to our parents' home and have a good discussion with the clan members to expel this woman from the Ma family. She was neither her biological child, nor was she raised by her, and she had not provided for her in her old age. How could she take advantage of her huge net worth in the name of her daughter-in-law? Are you bossing around the Ma family?

"In the past, she was a member of the Zhou family, and everyone gave her three points. Now she is a scourge! Will she still be implicated in the scourge of the whole family? What should she do?! I should have drawn a clear line with her earlier, and then put the old aunt's Take back the property and property slaves and completely sever ties with her, so that the Ma family can live in peace!"

Zhou Ma said weakly: "You are right...the Zhou family has been harmed by her, and the Ma family can no longer be affected by her..."

"Fart!" Mrs. Ma couldn't hold her anger this time. She pointed at the Ma sisters and yelled, "That's nice to say! In fact, they are just greedy for my money! I have been famous for decades, and now I have a little bit of success. No, are you going to turn your back on me?”

Ma scolded back: "How long have you, our sisters, ever gained fame and fortune thanks to you? What benefits has the Ma family received from you these years?! Don't put money on your face. It's all you who have ruined our Ma family's life." It's not as good as one year. You've been a glorious wife, but you've sucked away the blessings of our Ma family for decades. Without you, we can't live in peace." Anyway, Ma's face is broken! Shi simply did something more extreme. She called to the strong women brought by the Zhou family: "Go into the house and search out all the property without the Zhou family's mark. It is the dowry given to her by the Ma family. Since she will no longer be a Ma family, , then you can’t occupy things anymore!”

Zhou Ma and the servants were stunned. The former hurriedly took his sister's hand: "Yumei, what are you..."

Ma reminded her: "Take some tangible benefits back, so that the people in the clan will listen to you. Besides, if the house is raided, these things will not be saved. If we don't take them away in advance, wouldn't the Ma family eat a lot in vain?" deficit?!"

Zhou Ma immediately felt that it made sense and nodded to the servants. The servants and wives were all newly selected. They had never experienced the period when Mrs. Ma was in the third room talking about everything. They only listened to the orders of Zhou Shigong and Zhou Ma's wife, and they actually broke into the house when they saw it.

Mrs. Ma was so angry that she jumped up and down: "You are so brave! I am still the royal wife! How dare you be rude to me?!"

Ma sneered: "Mrs. Gaoming will be abolished soon, what is there to be afraid of? Although she only has the imperial decree, her identity is very secure!"

"Shut up!" Mrs. Ma was so angry that her face turned blue, and the fingers pointing at Mr. Ma were trembling, "I'm rude, how dare you be so arrogant in front of me?! This is the Zhou family! It's not your turn to speak as an outsider! "

"You are still an outsider in the Ma family!" Ma sneered, "Stop pretending to be an elder in front of me. So what if you are the general's wife? You will be punished sooner or later. She is just a criminal, so what do you have to be afraid of? of?!"

She turned around and said to Mr. Zhou: "It's fair to say that she doesn't want to open her mouth and doesn't care. Doesn't she just want to investigate the past? Go back to Ma's house to find some older elders, or take back the old aunt's money." After buying the property, go find the old shopkeepers and old guys. If you have seen her when she was young, ask them where did the old aunt meet her and how did she adopt her as her daughter-in-law? I don’t believe it, I can’t find out her details!”

Zhou Ma swallowed his saliva: "If she... is really a Hu spy, then it is because the Hu people are deliberately plotting against our Zhou family. At most, our Zhou family was deceived, and it was not because we deliberately tampered with it. foreign enemy……"

Zhou Yijun looked surprised, but Mrs. Ma, who was two feet away, turned completely pale.
