The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 19 Interrogation
Mrs. Tan refused, "What does the old lady mean to say that we, Ming Qi, deserve to be discredited by others? Just because we accidentally pushed Ming Yu into the water, the beating is not enough, and we need to be slandered by the world?"

"Presumptuous! Who are you talking to? Do you think that the old woman will not take me seriously if the wings are hard? Although the boss was not born by me, he still wants to call me mother. You look like Are you a daughter-in-law? Is this how your Tan family teaches manners?" The old lady Xiao couldn't rest, she slapped the table and scolded Mrs. Tan.

"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law is also a little anxious. But the old lady shouldn't be partial." Tan was a little short of breath, and if she was labeled as unfilial, the problem would be serious.

"At this time, you know that the old man is biased. Why didn't you say that the old man was partial to the old man when it happened with Ming Qi? It really doesn't matter if it's not your own child who suffers." The old lady Xiao smiled coldly, her eyes full of sarcasm. color.

Tan blushed, and didn't dare to refute for a while.

Nanny Wen stood at the door, as if she wanted to enter but dared not.Old Mrs. Xiao was very bored. He was full of these bullshit things all day long, so he asked sharply, "What's the matter? Are you standing at the door as a wooden stake?"

With a timid look on her face, Nanny Wen hurriedly said: "Sir, old lady, the second wife from the East Mansion is here. She said she came to discuss something about rumors outside."

Everyone frowned and looked at Mrs. Xiao.

Mrs. Xiao was dissatisfied, but still nodded, and asked someone to invite the second wife, Mrs. Xie, in.The Xie family was born in a wealthy local family, plus they have sons and daughters, and their means are extremely powerful, so it can be said that they are the same in the East Mansion.Even the old lady of Dongfu was controlled by the second wife Xie Shi, who let the second wife decide everything.

Mrs. Xie walked in, turning a blind eye to the solemn atmosphere in the room. "Nephew and daughter-in-law to uncle, and auntie. Greetings. It is a last resort to take the liberty to come here today. My old lady also knows about the rumors about the eldest girl. She is worried that it will affect the future of our Xiao family girl, so she sent her nephew and daughter-in-law to ask Ask, I don't know what kind of regulations uncle and aunt are in this matter."

"Second daughter-in-law, please sit down and talk. This meeting is discussing this matter. Now that you are here, let's discuss together." Mrs. Xiao was still very polite to Mrs. Xie.Turning around, he said to Han Shi again: "My fifth daughter-in-law, tell me, what do you think of this matter?"

Mrs. Han straightened her back, and said righteously: "Sir, my daughter-in-law only found out about this matter today. My daughter-in-law is also very puzzled, who is plotting against the eldest family and our fifth wife here. At first glance, it seems that the daughter-in-law is the most suspicious, but the old man thinks carefully, such a big flaw, a method that can be seen through at a glance, would the daughter-in-law do it? Don't say that the daughter-in-law does not have such vicious thoughts, even if she has, she will definitely not Maybe I don’t even want my own daughter’s future. This matter, my daughter-in-law thinks that it needs to be investigated clearly, and my daughter-in-law also hopes to investigate this matter clearly, so that the fifth house can be cleared, and the real mastermind behind the scenes can also be brought to justice.”

When Xiao Mingyu came to Fushou Hall, the girl Xichun raised the curtain and came out, "It turns out that Miss Seven is here. Miss Seven wants to go in?"

Xiao Mingyu looked worried, "Sister Xichun, I don't know what will happen inside?"

"Just as we were talking, the second wife of the East Mansion also came. She said she wanted to hear how our West Mansion discussed this matter."

People from Dongfu also came.Xiao Mingyu thought deeply.She has heard of Mr. Xie's reputation. Seeing that she took care of the Dongfu like an iron bucket, even the second old lady was taken down by her, which shows this man's means and scheming.

The ancestors of Xiao's ancestors had a small number of descendants, and they were passed down for several generations.It was not until the generation of Xiao Mingyu's great-grandfather that he gave birth to two legitimate sons, which are now the old master Xiao and the second old master Xiao.When the ancestor of the Xiao family was still alive, he first expanded the Xiao family's ancestral house.Later, across a narrow road, another house was built, which is the current Dongfu.Before the ancestor of the Xiao family passed away, he decided to divide the family between the two brothers.The eldest son and his family naturally lived in the old house.As for the second son, he brought his family to live in Dongfu.The two families are separated, and the real estate, fields, and shops are all divided, but the Xiao family's wealth and lifeblood, the century-old foundation, and the foundation of its life-the part of gold, silver and iron ore, no matter which generation it is passed on, is divided into families without division of property, and We must firmly control the direct branch.Otherwise, the Xiao family would not be able to contend against the plunder of other aristocratic families.

The two prefectures live close to each other, and they have a lot of financial ties, so the two prefectures have a lot of exchanges.Even the girls and boys are ranked together by the two families.

Mrs. Xie came to the West Mansion to inquire about this matter, which also represented the East Mansion's attitude towards this matter. It must not be allowed to spread and affect the girls' marriage.

There were elders inside, and there was no room for her, a little girl, to speak. Xiao Mingyu was hesitating how to sneak in without being noticed.At this moment, Xiao Mingzhen also came to Fushou Hall.

Seeing Xiao Mingyu, Xiao Mingzhen raised his eyebrows and looked unclear.

Xiao Mingyu took the initiative to say hello, "I met the third brother. Did the third brother come here for the eldest sister?"

"Exactly. Seventh Sister, too. Why don't you go in?"

"Sister is about to go in, third brother please."

Xiao Mingzhen was not polite, and walked in first.Xiao Mingyu followed behind.As soon as the two walked in, the room suddenly became quiet, and they all looked at them.The old lady Xiao said, "Why are you here? There is a discussion here, and the children are all out."

Mrs. Xie said indifferently: "Auntie, my nephew and daughter-in-law have some different opinions. Mingzhen has grown up, so he should listen to such things, so that he can understand the truth in the future. As for the girl Mingyu, although she is still young, It's small, but girls are quick parents and sensible early, so there's no harm in listening."

"The second daughter-in-law is right. The children of our Xiao family should not develop an ignorant temper. Since we are here, we all stand beside your mother." Mr. Xiao spoke, and the matter was considered settled.

Standing behind Han Shi, Xiao Mingyu looked at the situation in the room and felt the tense atmosphere. Xiao Mingyu knew that Han Shi was at a disadvantage.Han has no evidence, and Tan has no evidence either.But the Tan family is the one who suffers, so she naturally has an advantage, and will get more sympathy from people.It is impossible to go on like this, and the Han family must not bear such a crime.

"Old man, Ming Qi was about to get married, but he happened to encounter such a thing, his reputation was ruined, and his future was in jeopardy. The daughter-in-law didn't say who was behind the scenes, but only hoped that the old man could uphold justice and return Ming Qi's innocence. "Tan's miserable, she looks like a mother who is simply worried about her children.

"Don't worry, no matter who it is, as long as they are found out, they will be severely punished." Mrs. Xiao still looked towards Han's side intentionally or unintentionally.

The fourth wife, Liao, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Sister-in-law is very right, the girl's family, how can she stand such slander. But if sister-in-law is willing to discipline the eldest girl strictly, maybe what happened today will not happen. "
