At this moment, the explosive power of the Yuan clan was shocking. Their eyes were red as they looked at everyone around them.

The old mistress stood up from her seat and looked at the farce with a steely expression. "Why aren't you tying up the madame?"

She gnashed her teeth as she said those words. However, not a single person present was willing to listen to her. Even the mama that served her closely hesitated in the face of such an order.

Regardless of how displeased the madame was, the Yuan clan was still the master of the Prime Minister's Estate. Besides, she had a child in her womb!

This child, no matter what happened, was fine. But he couldn't let his underlings get rid of it! After all, the one in charge of the mansion was the prime minister. If they dared to take the heir of the prime minister down, the consequences would be dire!

Seeing that no one was listening to her, the old mistress' face contorted even more. "Alright, you're in reverse!" All of you dare to disobey my orders now? "

The entire room quieted in an instant, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.

Yuan Shi hugged Hua Yuan and said, "My good daughter, don't be afraid. Don't be afraid. No matter what happens, Mother will always accompany you by your side."

Hua Yuan nodded. "Yes, I know, Mother."

She held Yuan Shi's hand in one hand and placed her index finger on her pulse, quietly identifying her pulse. Fortunately, although he was anxious and angry, because he had taken care of the baby well, the fetus was fine.

This also made Hua Yuan completely at ease.

The madame's expression was gloomy, especially when she recalled the words Hua Yuan had shouted out earlier. Her brows were deeply furrowed.

However, after a short while, the madame returned to normal and sneered at the Yuan mother and daughter. She said coldly, "Yuan Family, don't you think that my punishment of Hua Yuan is unreasonable? She is just a junior, yet she wants to be a servant of the Duke of Ling's household despite surpassing our family's elders. What kind of logic is this? Do you even place us seniors in your eyes? For a person without the consciousness of the clan and not knowing how to respect their elders, I ask that the family rules to teach them a lesson.

The Yuan clan did not know that there was such a matter. Being questioned by the old mistress caused her to be a little dazed. Her first reaction was to ask Hua Yuan if this was true.

However, all of a sudden, she seemed to have realized something and knew that she couldn't ask.

Now that she had regained her clarity, she let go of Hua Yuan's hand. There were still tears in her eyes, but she resolutely said, "Mother, I heard from Iris about this matter." And I agree, too, that I forgot to tell my mother. I thought such a small matter could be avoided disturbing my mother. "

The old mistress smirked and asked, "You know?"

The Yuan clan nodded.

"So you're the one I should punish?"

The Yuan clan still nodded.

Although she loved the child in her womb as well, she still hadn't come out yet. She could not ignore Huayun because of the unborn child in her belly and let her suffer such grievances.

She knew that no matter what she said, she wouldn't be able to escape this punishment. Right now, all he could hope for was that the prime minister would return soon. This way, the mother and daughter would suffer less.

The most important thing now was not to confront the madame, but to stall for time.

Madam Yuan knelt down and said, "Mother, you also know that Iris likes to grow some flowers and plants in her own yard. The farmers in our Prime Minister's Estate are very few, so it was my wife who went back to her mother's house to ask if there were any suitable people before sending her over."

The madame, however, did not intend to get them up. She was not in a good mood today and had decided to punish them.

Hua Yuan, however, felt that her mother's response after calming down was still not bad.

Thinking about it, if his mother was able to establish her own residence and take control of the estate after this incident, that would be a good thing as well.

After a long time, a voice that was no different from the heavenly music to Hua Yuan and Yuan Shi rang out, "Mother, what has made you so angry?"

Hua Yuan turned around to see Hua Shihao in his official uniform. Hua Yuan was pleasantly surprised. "Father, you're finally back."

"Mother, I wonder if Qingping and Iris made a mistake that Mother would be so angry?"

The madame knew that since her son had come, she would not be able to punish them today. He said with a dark expression, "What else can I do for you? It's all because you got used to this mother and daughter duo of yours! I wanted to give a little warning because I wanted to. Since Hao'er had come, his mother wasn't going to make things difficult for them. A month's imprisonment. I'll stay at home and meditate. "

The madame thought very well.

The time that she had agreed upon with Master Jing Hui of the Lotus Temple was only about ten days away. She could not let the mother and daughter do any bad things. From what Hua Yuan had just said to her, the Countess could roughly guess that Hua Yuan wasn't someone who didn't know how to fool others.

This farce ended in a quiet, thunderous end.

The room regained its calm. The old lady then asked the person beside her, "Tell me, do you think this Hua Yuan knows everything? She knows about her fall into the water, and she knows about the things we did to her? "

The mama said, "Madam, how can you do that!?" This old servant sees, the reason why the Second Miss said such a thing is also because the Old Madam is too strict with her. "

The old mistress thought back on her actions and realised that it was indeed the case. He did not ask further.

Hua Yuan brought Madam Yuan to her main wife, "Mother, how do you feel about your stomach? Is there anything wrong with it? "

Yuan Shi shook her head, "Don't worry. Mother is fine."

"En, Mother, remember to make those scented tea that I gave you. It will be good for your body and your younger brother." Hua Yuan said worriedly.

That was the tea she had made according to the formula in the medical book. Drinking wine was of great benefit to pregnant women. It was also because of this that the Yuan clan was being nurtured so well.

Whether the scented tea had any effect or not, Yuan Shi's feeling was the most intuitive.

Therefore, when Hua Yuan said this, the Yuan clan agreed. She was also curious as to why her daughter knew so much, but she knew that no matter what, this was her own daughter.

"Mother, please take a good rest."

Hua Shihao was also listening to the servant's report about what had happened, and his face turned gloomy. It wasn't that he didn't know that his mother didn't like Iris and Yuan.

However, he thought that it was because he was displeased and would not do anything out of line. Now it would seem that he was ridiculously wrong!

The Hua family's rules were never easily taken out. Usually, it was only because their children committed a grave mistake that they would use the clan's laws. And normally, even if a disciple managed to survive, he would be expelled from the clan.

Because she had accepted a few servants of the Duke of Ling's household, her mother had to discipline her family. This was simply too excessive.

What happened that year was all caused by him. Second brother's death was an accident!

However, his mother blamed the whole thing on the Yuan clan. This made Hua Shihao feel deeply helpless.

When he had first seen Yuan Qingping that year, he had fallen for her. At that time, he wholeheartedly wanted to marry the Yuan clan! However, based on the influence of the Duke of Ling's household, how could they possibly allow their daughter to become a child? However, by then, he already had a wife, and she was his mother's niece.

He had also thought of giving up, but when he came back to reality at midnight, the charming and lovable appearance of the Yuan clan's Qingping had always entered her dreams. To make him fall asleep, perhaps it was all he could hope for, which was to make his obsession grow deeper and deeper.

In the end, he still made a mistake.

He admitted that he was responsible for the things that happened back then. However, who could say what was right or wrong now? Was Fei's mother not wrong?

No one could blame her for her death!

Hua Shihao shook his head. Forget it.

It was already such a distant matter, what was the use of thinking about it?
