Salted Fish Lady Loves to Eat Melons

Chapter 178: Minister Wen and his wife argue

"How could Dad possibly offend Zhu'er? It's obviously your mother and your second aunt who are quarreling and making Zhu'er upset!" Minister Wen said angrily.

He would never admit that he was the one who made his precious daughter unhappy, otherwise how could he show off his power in the Wen Mansion in the future.

"Master, you have to believe me. I really didn't disturb Zhu'er." Mother Wen said softly.

"Hmph! You are talking loudly in front of Zhu'er. If not disturbing her, what will it do?" Minister Wen asked impatiently.

His tone was full of sarcasm, as if he was extremely disgusted by his wife's behavior.

"That's all because of... Xiaoqi..." Mother Wen stuttered and couldn't explain it clearly.

In fact, she really wanted to ask what to do about her eldest son's problem, but her husband was angry at the moment.

"That's enough. Stop pushing everything onto Xiaoqi. I've never seen anyone as shameless as you." Father Wen shouted harshly.

"Whenever you encountered problems before, you always pushed the blame onto your own daughter, causing that evil creature to sever ties with me. Now you blame Xiao Qi. You are so shameless!"

"Master! How can you say that about me..." Mother Wen's voice was shrill and her whole body was trembling.

She was really sad. Mother Wen had never felt sorry for her daughter before, but after the severance of the relationship, she felt that she owed her daughter too much.

Now, the master actually blamed her for breaking off the engagement with Wan'er!

She was originally very worried about her eldest son, and was finally looking forward to her youngest daughter waking up, but the master and daughter didn't say a word.

Mother Wen cried bitterly, her bloodless face looked even more haggard and pale. At this moment, she no longer looked as dignified as usual.

"Hmph!" When Minister Wen saw his wife's appearance, he felt even more disgusted and could only snort coldly to vent his dissatisfaction.

Seeing her parents arguing, Wen Yansheng quickly stepped forward to comfort them: "Dad, Mom, my sister is already very unhappy. If you guys keep arguing so loudly here, my sister will be even angrier."

"Humph, I don't want to argue with stupid people. Look at her sad face. Others would think your brother is dead!"

Minister Wen yelled in anger, but in fact he was also worried about his eldest son.

That was his eldest son, whom he had raised with so much effort and financial resources, and he was unwilling to give up just like that.

Mainly the second and third sons, and two illegitimate sons who are not even one-tenth as good as the eldest son.

"Father, mother has always been timid, please don't scare her." There was a hint of pleading in Wen Yansheng's eyes as he looked at his father.

He hoped his father could forgive his mother and stop pursuing the matter any further. He really didn't want to see his parents quarreling.

It’s a pity that Wen Yansheng underestimated how ruthless his father was.

"Sheng'er, you don't have to speak for her. She never wishes Zhu'er well and she just wants to make a loud noise!" Minister Wen completely put the blame on his wife.

"Wuwu... Master... I am innocent... I treated Zhuer with all my heart..." Mother Wen knelt on the ground, crying out in agony.

Seeing her sister-in-law in such a miserable and embarrassed state, Aunt Wen couldn't help but sigh, but she wouldn't feel sorry for her sister-in-law, let alone speak for her.

She deserves all of this. For so many years, the eldest sister-in-law has been bullied by the eldest brother.

In order to please her husband, she even ignored her own daughter. She is not a good person either.

Today, he was scolded because of Zhu'er's matter. If Zhu'er doesn't forgive his uncle, then his uncle will definitely not forgive his sister-in-law.

Second Aunt Wen couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that she married a man who loved her. Even if he didn't have much of a future, her life was worth it. Wen Yansheng looked at her heartbroken mother kneeling on the cold floor with distress, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

No matter how much he loved his mother, he didn't dare to argue with his father, otherwise he would be branded as disobedient and unfilial.

While Wen Yansheng was hesitating, he heard a clear and pleasant female voice: "Why are you quarreling again? Every time you quarrel, it's over trivial matters."

When Minister Wen turned around, he was stunned. His daughter was wearing a pink dress and had double spiral buns. She was not wearing any makeup, but she was as beautiful as a fairy.

Besides, she had just washed and dressed up, so she shouldn't be angry anymore, right?
So he smiled flatteringly and said, "Mother Zhu..., you are not angry anymore, have you forgiven your mother?"

Wen Mingzhu turned her face away, not wanting to be stung by her father's bad breath, "Well, this is just a small matter, I won't take it to heart."

"Thank you, Madam..." Mother Wen was overjoyed and immediately burst into laughter, "Master, please pull me up quickly, so as not to scare Madam."

"Hmph!" Minister Wen turned around and glared at her coldly. The look in his eyes meant: I won't pull you in.

Then he turned around and faced his daughter with a flattering smile, "My Lady, do you really not mind?"

Wen Mingzhu smiled sweetly and nodded: "Well, I don't mind."

She didn't want to come out, but the two old guys were arguing fiercely outside, and she was afraid that the palace maids and eunuchs in Chaoyang Court would gossip about them.

She really didn't mind Mother Wen. After all, she had always been protecting her, and she was just in a bad mood because of her cheap father's bad breath.

She is a modern person who doesn't care about details. She can't stand seeing a bunch of antiques from ancient times and just wants to get rid of them quickly.

Hearing this, Minister Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked in a low voice: "My queen, have you sent someone to ask if the Crown Prince has woken up?"

Hearing this, Wen Mingzhu immediately stopped smiling.

She bit her lip lightly, her eyes flickering with deep sorrow and self-blame, "Your Highness is in a coma, I have no time to take care of you, I am only worried that my brother is not doing well in prison."

"Empress..." Minister Wen called out worriedly, blaming himself. His precious daughter had always been very sensible, and he shouldn't have forced her.

"Your Majesty, please help Ting'er. He will definitely be beaten in prison." Mother Wen knelt down and crawled to Wen Mingzhu's feet and begged.

It wasn't that she really wanted to kneel, but her legs were numb and no one pulled her up, so she couldn't get up.

Seeing this, Wen Mingzhu shook her head and took a deep breath to calm her inner irritability.

Then she said delicately and slowly, "You go back first. I will go with Your Highness tomorrow to look for Mr. Xie, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple."

After saying that, she left the living room without looking back.

Father Wen was very happy to see his daughter willing to go to the Dali Temple Xie Shaoqing. He looked at his daughter's back and asked, "My queen, what do you need me to do?"

"Take them back first, so that others won't laugh at you." Wen Mingzhu's voice was very soft, but her face was full of impatience.

As she walked towards the bedroom, memories of her past life emerged in her mind, and she couldn't help but smile with a determined look.

In her previous life, she was married to Xie Shaoqing, and in order to win all his favor, she deliberately framed his cousin.

Being angrily accused by her mother-in-law, which eventually led to the couple becoming enemies, she was not going to plead for Wen Yanting tomorrow.

She wanted to apologize to him and win his heart again.
