Chapter 581 Mother, please save some face for me!
At this moment, everyone looked at Mrs. Wu with strange expressions.
It is so embarrassing to bully others even if they do not understand. Being silenced by others is so embarrassing.
"You, you..." Mrs. Wu became angry and kicked a nun, "Get up quickly, go to Jingzhaoyin and call for the officials to come and put these blind people in jail..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiayin took out a jade pendant from his arms with a smile.
The jade pendant is not too big, and is engraved with dragon patterns. The sunlight from the window shines in, allowing everyone to see clearly and gasp in shock.
Carved dragon pendant?
This is something only the emperor can wear!
Jiayin shook her jade pendant, her face full of joy, "It's great that Mrs. Wu wants to report to the government. I haven't been to the government office yet! Just when you opened your mouth, you scolded my parents and called me a little beast. You want to beat me." Me, I also want to find someone to talk to.
“However, reporting to the official is troublesome. Let’s go directly to the emperor’s uncle and ask him to help with the review! This is the jade pendant given by the emperor’s uncle. You can enter the palace at any time!”
After saying that, she grinned, showing a small gap in her teeth, and smiled even brighter at Mrs. Wu.
"Oops, I just forgot to mention that I am the princess of Kangle, conferred by the emperor's uncle! My adoptive father is the Marquis of Xinting, my second uncle is the uncle of Zhongshan, my grandma is a first-grade imperial general, and my father is a fourth-grade military general! Are they both? Is it higher than your husband’s position?”
Princess Kangle?
The shopkeeper immediately straightened his back, suddenly feeling that his worries just now were ridiculous.
The queen’s mother clan sounds very scary.
But in the final analysis, Mrs. Wu is the wife of the second son of the Hou family. Without the support of the Hou family, their family is nothing.
On the contrary, it is the Li family. Anyone they pick out is an official and has a title, and they can easily crush the second Mrs. Wu.
Especially Princess Kangle, I heard that she is very popular with the emperor, even more favored than the princess...
At this awkward moment, someone suddenly came up from downstairs again.
A young girl brought two maids and carried two pieces of silk. Suddenly she saw such a strange situation on the second floor, and the young girl was startled.
Seeing how embarrassed Mrs. Wu was again, she hurried forward, frowned and asked: "Mother, what happened?"
Mrs. Wu seemed to have seen her savior. She grabbed the young girl and shouted: "Lian'er, they are bullying others! I don't like the presence of foxes in the store, so they beat me and my mother-in-law!"
“Look, this is the Li family, the princess of Kangle! If you don’t try to marry the Marquis, the Marquis’s mansion will fall into the hands of this dead girl!
"Don't you like the Marquis? Are you willing to let the Marquis be deceived by these mud-legged people? Go and beg your cousin, you must be Mrs. Hou and step on them!"
Needless to say, this young girl is Wu Bilian.
The mother spoke without restraint, her face flushed with embarrassment. She looked up and saw Mr. and Mrs. Li Laosi looking at her with curiosity in their eyes, and their eyes were even brighter after hearing the good news.
It was obvious that all three members of the family knew about her identity and the fact that she admired the Marquis but was rejected. She became more and more embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
She ignored etiquette and tried to cover her mother's mouth, shouting in a low voice: "Mom, if you don't want me to hit you to death, just stop talking! Let's go, hurry up!"
"We should go wherever we go, they have to go! Damn girl, it's all your fault!" Mrs. Wu broke away from her daughter's hand and wanted to continue to scold her.
Wu Bilian couldn't stop her. Thinking about what happened today, it would reach the ears of the Marquis...
She was so desperate that she literally picked up her skirt and rushed towards the window!
"Lian'er!" Madam Wu was frightened and wanted to stop her, but she was a step too late. Fortunately, Jiayin threw the little fox out in an emergency.
The little fox ran over to Wu Bilian's shoulder and bumped her head. Wu Bilian's body tilted. Not only did she not jump out of the window, she bumped into the chair next to her.
There was an eerie silence in the room for a moment, and then Mrs. Wu rushed up and started shaking her daughter crazily, "Unfilial girl, if something happens to you, how will I survive!"
Wu Bilian was pale, she was so embarrassed and angry just now, but now she woke up and felt scared, her hands were trembling, "Mom, let's go home. If you keep making trouble, I will really die. Save some face for yourself." , also leave me a way to survive!
"Everyone you caused trouble knows about this, then our family is rebelling against the decree. When the government of the town finds out, I will really not be able to live!"
She grabbed her mother's arm, with tears in her eyes, "Mom, aren't you just a marquis lady? When I marry to the Duke's palace, I will be the Duke's wife from now on! Please don't always think about your own face, leave me a note Take your life!"
I don’t know whether it was because of her daughter’s persuasion or because she was really afraid that something might happen to her daughter, but Mrs. Wu actually didn’t continue to make trouble.
Wu Bilian stood up, saluted to the three members of the Li family, and apologized in a low voice, "I'm sorry, my mother has a bad temper, and she just offended me. I apologize on her behalf."
After saying that, she turned to Jiayin, with a flash of hidden envy in her eyes. She lowered her head and thanked her, "I couldn't think about it just now. Thank you, Princess, for helping me."
Li Laosi was not comfortable talking to a girl, so he took a step back, leaving Tao Hongying to deal with it.
Thinking of the situation just now, she was still a little annoyed and said: "Miss Wu, the current emperor is the most wise and wise. If your government always acts so arrogantly outside, I am afraid that even the queen will be embarrassed, right?"
"Today, we still have some confidence to protect ourselves from being bullied and our children from being beaten and scolded. If it had been anyone else, half of their lives would have been lost by now!"
After hearing this, Madam Wu was of course unconvinced and wanted to speak, but her daughter glared at her so hard that she swallowed her words back in shock.
Wu Bilian bowed her head again and saluted, and said to the three members of the Li family: "Thank you, Madam, for your kind words. I am really sorry for today. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely come to apologize."
After saying that, she took her mother, grandma and maids, and went downstairs.
A few guests who were watching the fun, maybe because they were afraid of being offended, laughed dryly and left.
Li Laosi paid the money and Tao Hongying took the things.
Li Laosi has not forgotten to apologize to the shopkeeper, "I'm sorry, shopkeeper, for delaying the business of the store."
The shopkeeper was frightened and quickly saluted and said with a smile: "You are so polite, noble man. When you open the door to do business, you can always encounter anything. But it has affected your interest today, which is really a sin. If you come here when you are free in the future, I will definitely treat you well." Entertain noble people.”
Li Laosi and Tao Hongying nodded, greeted the good news and went downstairs.
Jiayin nodded towards the old shopkeeper and said thank you with a smile, "Thank you so much, shopkeeper. I will definitely come here often in the future!"
Even the little fox chirped at the old shopkeeper.
The old shopkeeper smiled and quickly agreed, "Then the young man is waiting for the princess to come."
The family of three left the Silver Building, bought some food, and then left the city for Luoan.
Jiayin was impatient to sit in the carriage, so Tao Hongying hugged her and sat on the other side of the carriage, chatting with Li Laosi.
“That girl just now was the one who blocked the door to marry the Marquis. She looked pretty and sensible, and she was even more bold when she dared to find her in front of the Marquis’s house.
"If I hadn't been born in the Marquis of Jiangning and had such an arrogant and selfish mother, maybe marrying the Marquis would have been a good marriage. What a pity!"
Jiayin also nodded along. Although Tianwu is not strict in etiquette, most women still regard chastity, quietness and meekness as the standard. They are like puppets and must obey the arrangements of their family in everything.
This girl Wu acts eccentrically and impulsively. She is not perfect, but she has her own ideas.
Moreover, she seems to really have some affection for her adoptive father, which is different from the calculations in their family, which is quite rare...
