Salted Fish Lady Loves to Eat Melons

Chapter 228 Very Satisfied with This Marriage
"Sister, let's go and talk to Minister Shen now. If Miss Fan was at fault first, we can let her apologize to Mr. Shen."

The grandmother of the Sixth Miss Xiao's husband's family suggested that she was a person of sentimentality, and how could she endure seeing such a thing!

"Miss Fan is a gentle girl at first glance. It must be the fault of Young Master Shen." An old lady said with a smile.

Hearing this, Fan Shiliu's face turned even paler. She was not trying to figure out who was right or wrong, but she had an obsession in her heart.

"I... I really did nothing wrong..." She murmured in a low voice, as if she had suffered great injustice.

Old Madam Xiao frowned and looked at her granddaughter, hoping that she would change her mind and not go and embarrass herself.

If this granddaughter is really right, the eldest granddaughter-in-law will definitely stand up for her. Since Wan'er didn't show up, it shows that the matter is very clear.

Unfortunately, Fan Shiliu said stubbornly, "Grandma, he really bullied me for no reason, and he even beat me..."

As she spoke, she deliberately revealed half of her swollen face. The five bright red fingerprints on her fair face were particularly conspicuous. She bit the corner of her lip lightly, looking pitiful.

"I didn't expect Minister Shen's youngest son to be so arrogant. Sister, let's go ask him."

"Yes, he is so arrogant when he comes to visit the Xiao Mansion. Who gives him the confidence?"

Seeing that all the sisters were very angry, the old lady couldn't just remain indifferent.

"Since Sister Ting did nothing wrong, then it must be the Shen family's child who hit someone for no reason. Grandmother must go to Minister Shen to argue with him."

"Thank you, grandmother. Ting'er is sorry for putting you in a difficult position. The grudge between Mr. Shen and I should be resolved so as not to damage the reputation of the Xiao family." Fan Shiliu said aggrievedly.

"Oh, this child is so sensible. It would be great if the children in our family could be as sensible as you." An old lady sighed.

Madam Xiao sighed and said, “In this case, let’s go find Minister Shen and let him teach his son a lesson himself.

If he doesn't care, we will send Shen Laoyao to the authorities. Anyway, the Shen family can't cover the sky with one hand. We have so many relatives who will make the decision for you!"

"Ting'er thanks grandma!" Fan Shiliu burst into laughter and quickly stood up to bow and express gratitude.

She didn't really want to cause trouble for the Shen family's playboy, she just wanted Xie Xiaofeng to know her relationship with the Weiwu Marquisate.

She had seen clearly from her seat on the ground the look of admiration he had for his evil cousin.

Everyone in Yingchun Hall followed the old lady, and a large group of old men and old ladies marched towards Changshou Hall in a mighty manner.

The boys and girls in Wisteria Garden sat in their respective areas, eating seasonal fruits and delicious snacks, and chatting lively.

According to the host, the dishes and the freshest vegetables, fruits and melons on the banquet were all grown by the groom himself and they tasted extremely delicious.

"Master Fan Wu and Master Shen Laoyao are truly worthy of being the best brothers in Beijing. He beat up your sister, and you guys were still drinking together. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..." a young man said sarcastically.

Fan Wu Wanku snorted coldly and said, "People like you are only good at talking. The Marquis's wife said that young people playing and fighting is the most fun. Are you trying to stir up trouble on purpose?"

"That's right. The two Dukes didn't say anything. What do you mean by saying this?" Everyone echoed what he said.

The young man coughed twice awkwardly and picked up the wine glass to hide his embarrassment. He was just jealous of those playboys for having a good family background.

I said a few sour words on purpose, but I didn't expect to be exposed on the spot. It was so embarrassing!

Just when the atmosphere was awkward, footsteps were heard. A group of old men and old ladies passed by Wisteria Garden. Everyone hurriedly stopped talking and stood up to greet them.

The old lady smiled and said, "No need to be so polite, my friends. Just continue to eat and drink. I'm passing by here to find Minister Shen." As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar and all looked at Mr. Shen.

But the youngest Shen looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, as if it had nothing to do with him.

When everyone heard that the old lady was going to cause trouble for Minister Shen, everyone's eyes lit up. This old lady wanted to seek justice for Miss Fan!

Everyone knew that the girl from the Fan family would not give up, but no one expected that she would actually call the old lady of the Xiao family to his attention.

He also brought a large group of people to find trouble with Shen Laoya's father. This is simply not following the rules.

The young men were all very excited, and fearing that the world would not be in chaos, they immediately made way for a wide road leading to Changshou Hall.

Soon a group of people crossed the arch bridge and entered the women's area, and the wife of the Marquis of Zhenxi tried to stop them.

"Madam Xiao, you'd better not go. We just heard Minister Shen say that he would beat his son when he got home."

Although Marquis Weiwu was a marquis conferred by the emperor himself, she heard from her husband and mother-in-law.

The old lady of the Xiao family did not have an imperial edict, unlike her mother-in-law, who had two sons who asked for an imperial edict for her.

Minister Shen is not only an important official of the dynasty, but also the father-in-law of the prince. If the old lady of the Xiao family rushes forward rashly, she will definitely not get any benefits.

The old lady also thought it made sense. She had never wanted to come here and was just about to go down the slope.

But she heard her eldest daughter shouting, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. My mother just went to ask Minister Shen why his son beat my daughter. Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because of his power?"

After Mrs. Fan II finished speaking, the female relatives who liked to watch the fun also echoed: "Yes, we are not afraid of him. Since Mr. Shen dared to take action, he must bear the consequences."

"That's right. The old lady is just going there to ask for clarification, not to cause trouble. Madam Fan, please don't stop her."

So, led by the old lady of the Xiao family, a group of female relatives headed towards the Changshou Hall in a mighty manner.

The emperor originally didn't want to leave, but after he took the pills, the toxins in his body were discharged, and his body was filled with a foul odor, so he had to leave in a hurry with Concubine De.

The fifth prince stayed behind to build relationships with important officials in the court. In the Changshou Hall, Xiao Jin and the fifth prince were drinking with the two dukes.

Minister Shen and Marquis Zhenxi, Minister of Justice Fan Wenguang, and Junior Official of the Dali Temple Xie Xiaofeng each sat aside and raised their glasses.

The Changshou Hall is very spacious and can accommodate ten tables and chairs, but only five tables and chairs are placed here, so it looks particularly spacious.

The wife of the Duke of Huguo came today specially to see her granddaughter-in-law. Her old man disliked the Xiao family because of its bad reputation and being too poor.

But her grandson and daughter-in-law were all very satisfied, so she took the opportunity of the wedding banquet to come to the Xiao Mansion.

She had been sitting at the women's table before, and after a day of observation, she was also very satisfied with this marriage.

The pork in the Xiao Mansion is exceptionally delicious, not to mention the seasonal vegetables and fruits.

In particular, Mrs. Hou specially invited her to Changshou Hall to chat and poured her a glass of wine, which was really delicious.

Wen Qingwan pulled Xiao Yi and Fan Yuxuan to accompany Old Madam Xie, but the two girls glanced at the Fifth Prince and Xie Xiaofeng from time to time.

Seeing this, Wen Qingwan walked towards Xiao Jin holding a piece of osmanthus cake and said, "Husband, please have some snacks, don't just drink."
