Chapter 120

He Xiaolian squinted at the shopkeeper and said, "I can't afford the price offered by Miss Murong. Why do you want to drive me away when you can accept her order?"

The shopkeeper snorted and said, "Our boss is a weirdo, and it depends on his mood when taking orders. Even if your order has passed my hands, send it to the boss, and return it to you!"

"I want a good reason!"

Before the shopkeeper could say anything, a woman suddenly barged in from outside the door, "You need a reason! He won't give it to you! I'll give it to you!"

He Xiaolian looked back instantly, seeing the person coming, his face changed drastically, "Mu, Miss Mu Li!"

As soon as Mu Li entered the room, his eyes were as piercing as copper bells.

Mu Li walked over, grabbed He Xiaolian by the hair, and dragged her to the street. At that moment, there were a large number of people around.

He Xiaolian screamed again and again, "Miss Mu Li, what are you doing?"

"What are you doing? My old lady doesn't like you, so I'm here to beat you up!"

As Mu Li said, he raised his arms and dropped them directly.

Snapped--

A slap knocked her to the ground.

He Xiaolian covered his face in fright, and kept moving back, "Miss Mu Li, why did you hit me?"

"If you want to hit you, hit you, why so much nonsense?"

Mu Li rolled up his sleeves again, rushed over and pulled her hair and tried to hit her again.

He Xiaolian quickly turned up the volume and yelled, "Don't hit me, I have a baby in my stomach! You can't hit me!"

As expected, Mu Li withdrew his hand, but he still didn't let go of her hair, "Whose child? Master Hou's?"

"This……"

If she answered this question, would she still be able to call herself the second wife in the future?

"Tell me—mother-in-law's, what are you doing? Whose child is this? Is it Lord Hou's?"

"Yes! Yes yes yes!" He Xiaolian gritted his teeth and lied.She can't let everything she has worked so hard to destroy!For many days, the treatment of the second wife made her really reluctant to throw it away!

Mu Li raised his hand and slapped it down again, and said with a dark face, "I told you to lie! I told you to lie! Everyone, come and look at this shameless woman! She dared to run to the Hou's mansion with someone else's child, and took the child Lay it on Lord Hou? Shame on you! Shame on you!"

"I—" He Xiaolian burst into tears, "Miss Mu Li, I have no grievances with you, why do you bully me like this?"

"I just can't understand your shameless attitude. You have nothing to do with Yilan brother. You come in and out every day showing the second wife of the Hou's mansion to anyone? Only Yao Yao, a fool, will suffer from your uselessness." Angry! I don’t want to see you! I don’t want to find out who the child in your stomach is! But you are not allowed to rely on brother Yilan, do you hear me?”

He Xiaolian sobbed bitterly, "Why do you bully me—I just like the man I like, why do you bully me——"

The bustling crowd was pushed aside, and the man who squeezed into the crowd was Song Ci.

When He Xiaolian saw Song Ci, his face turned pale.He actually saw his embarrassing appearance!

She looked away guiltily.

Song Ci was tired of her indifferently, and said, "You haven't changed at all, you like vain things so much. It's good now, you even changed my child's father."

He Xiaolian was extremely embarrassed, and cried, "Song Ci, you heartless, are you just watching me being bullied in public?"

Song Ci rolled his eyes coldly, and cupped his hands at Mu Li, "Miss Mu Li, please hold your hand high, after all, she is a pregnant woman."

Mu Li threw down He Xiaolian's hair, patted the palms of his hands, and kept wiping them in disgust, "A concubine is also worthy of being the concubine of the Marquis? Really, the face is thicker than the city wall! I don't understand why. The whole capital city is adoring her like a second wife? Ha, I laughed so hard!" Mu Li was as irritating as he was funny in his heart.

The news of He Xiaolian's behavior had spread to the palace, and when she heard about it, she really didn't have enough nostrils for her to breathe out.

I really couldn't hold back, so I had no choice but to come out of the palace and teach this woman a lesson!
"Give way."

"Oh, Madam Hou? Get out of the way—"

The crowd dispersed again, Yao Yao came slowly, looked around, and nodded to Song Ci, "General Song."

Song Ci responded softly, "I have seen Mrs. Hou."

Yao Yao looked at He Xiaolian, then at Mu Li.

She had a panoramic view of what happened just now, because she was hiding in the attic of her bosom friend, peeping.

Yao Yao pouted and said with an elegant smile, "Miss Mu Li, how can you beat people indiscriminately? After all, Miss He lives in our Hou's mansion, and I am supporting her! I will be responsible for the injury!"

Mu Li snorted and said, "Why does this bastard live in the Hou's mansion? You don't care if you are pregnant with someone else's seed, but you depend on brother Yilan? How do you become the head of the house?"

Yao Yao chuckled softly, "It's my fault that I can't have a child. It just so happens that Ms. He doesn't want this child, so I'm going to take over her child. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Mu Li said angrily, "Now people in the whole capital are spreading rumors that she is the new concubine of the Marquis! Everyone calls her Second Lady! Are you deaf or something? Can't you hear?"

"Ah! Tell me about this—"

He Xiaolian's face was stiff, and he turned his head awkwardly.

Yao Yao squeaked, "Rumors and rumors, if the person concerned did not come forward to clarify things, I would have nothing to do by myself. How about this, please ask Ms. He to clarify in person, what is the relationship between you and Lord Hou? The child in your belly Whose is it?"

If Song Ci wasn't there, she might have stalemate again, biting the bullet and continuing to lie.

But Song Ci stared straight at himself.If she dared to rely on Qin Yilan again, she was afraid that Song Ci would also leave, and her last protective umbrella would also disappear.

He Xiaolian touched his stomach.

This is her last trump card, Song Ci is her last straw, she can no longer be vain.

He Xiaolian lowered his head and said, "This is my husband's child. Living in the Hou's Mansion, Madam Hou just wants to take care of me. It has nothing to do with Lord Hou!"

Yao Yao nodded in satisfaction, "Did everyone hear it? Believe that rumors are limited to wise men. What's more, even if our Hou Mansion takes a concubine, it is impossible for us to be so obscure. At least we have to make a big splash and hold a banquet or something!" Ah……"

He Xiaolian's body shivered, and his heart felt cold.Enduring the ridicule of pointing at her from the crowd around her.

Yao Yao turned to Song Ci and said, "General Song, as the mistress of the Hou Mansion, I don't like to provoke disputes, but I can't tolerate someone riding on my head and domineering! Master Hou is a man, but he You also need to clear your reputation. Someone insulted him, saying that he took a concubine without knowing it, and this account must be settled. Don't say I don't give you face, it's still the same as before. General Song speak up for her Please forgive me, and I won't punish her."

He Xiaolian pushed himself up, "Why are you punishing me? I'm not a prisoner!"

Yao Yao looked at her indifferently, "If you live in my Hou's mansion, you have to listen to my discipline. If you don't listen, then get out!"

"I—" He Xiaolian gritted his teeth, thinking about his future, and finally gritted his teeth to hold back the breath.

Looking back, He Xiaolian looked at Song Ci with a trace of longing in his eyes.

Song Ci will help her!Just like just now, if she begged, he would definitely speak for her.
