"You don't like your sister-in-law that much, so why did you get along with her so well back then? Since your brother didn't want to marry her, why didn't he just say it out loud? Since you've married into my family, can't you just leave her be if you don't like her? All the dirty tricks you've learned have been used on your brother! This is what mother has taught you since you were young?! "
Fu Ninghui suddenly raised her head and coldly said, "Since young, you have only had two brothers in your heart, so your daughter should know as well. It will only be three months. Just be patient and don't worry about it in the future. If I were to marry my daughter and throw away the water, even if I have to rot outside, I don't need to hurt your heart! "
Lady Wang choked with anger and stomped her feet. "Good, good, good. I'll teach you wholeheartedly. I was originally blind to light the lamp, so I wasted my time!"
But then he smiled bitterly, "That's right! Your brother and I even cared about you, so we didn't send it. Do you really think your brother knows nothing? Who was so familiar with their family? And who was it that could take the rouge and get drunk? Who had the guts to scheme against them? Oh Hui'er, Hui'er, you were a little smart since you were a child, so you became a fool for all the people on the world. Or perhaps, he was simply reckless and did not care about kinship at all. He only thought of it as a bargaining chip that could be compared with others! "
Fu Ninghui called out to her but she did not reply. Lady Wang had already shed tears and called out to them from behind the screen, "Forget it, all of you can come out now."
Xu Mingwei lifted her head and glanced at Fu Heng, but there were no waves or ripples, as if she had heard the story of another person without the slightest thought.
Fu Heng looked towards her and shook her hand with a smile, "You're the one who's laughing."
With that, he pulled her out from behind the screen and took a glance at Fu Ninghui who was in a state of shock and anger. She did not even look disappointed as she calmly retracted her gaze and greeted Mrs Wang with a light voice.
Fu Ninghui saw that his brother, who loved him the most in the past few days, was also unwilling to pay attention to him, and his face became even more dejected.
Lady Wang's heart was exhausted, and she said tiredly, "You can think however you want. Your heart is crooked, and you see that everything is wrong. For your own good, it is all just hard work and no tricks. This time when we go back, Nanny Xue, you will watch over me personally. Unless something happens, you are not allowed to come out of your house at all, and will obediently stay until the day you go out. If anything goes wrong, I will only ask you! "
Nanny Xue let out a long sigh in her heart. She really didn't know what to say to the two of them since they had already reached such a state. Madam clearly wanted to make peace between the young girl and the courtyard of the eldest young master. The young girl in front of her had been soft, but Madame had scolded her. The eldest young master had doted on his younger sister since she was young, so he wouldn't make things difficult for her. He did not expect that the girl would be so angry and fight to the death with his wife and young master. Although there was no enmity between relatives, the words were sharp enough to cut people's hearts apart. Even after the treatment was over, there were still scars on the top. If he kept reminding her, she would never be able to return to the past.
Fu Heng suddenly called out to stop him, "Wait!"
A glimmer of hope flashed across Fu Ninghui's eyes, she thought that her brother really did love her, so she shouldn't hold a grudge against her for such a small thing, and ruin their brotherly relationship.
However, Fu Heng said, "Before I leave, there are still a few things I want to ask you. Do not lie to me anymore, or else in the future, you won't even be able to be siblings anymore. "
Fu Ninghui's face turned pale, she then raised her thorn to hide the gentleness, she stubbornly turned her face to ask, "Brother, if you want to ask, ask quickly, if the person who has been grounded for too long, I'm afraid someone will get unhappy again."
Fu Heng looked at his mother, Lady Wang, and shook his head in disappointment. Then he asked, "You know about what happened last year, right?"
Fu Ninghui bit her lips and nodded.
"You know I hate that thing, don't you?"
Fu Ninghui finally turned his head and looked at him. When she saw the disappointment in Fu Heng's eyes, she stubbornly nodded his head.
"For the sake of making things difficult for your sister-in-law, you didn't even care about mother and me. You know how much I hate these clowns, and you sent them into the house in my mother's name. In your eyes, what is kinship? A chess piece that can be used at any time and be abandoned? " Fu Heng was agitated for a moment. Xu Mingwei gently pulled on his sleeve and gently advised, "We're family after all, talk properly if you have anything to say."
Fu Ninghui looked at him coldly and said, "For the matters between us siblings, there is no need for you to be so kind."
Xu Mingwei was too lazy to bother with her. The current Fu Ninghui was like a mad dog, unable to listen to other people's words or advice. The more she said, the more mistakes she would make!
Fu Heng pulled Xu Mingwei into his embrace and said, "From today onwards, you do not need to talk about brotherly feelings with me anymore. The moment you added the medicine, you didn't care in the slightest that I was your brother! With your temper, if I were to hide it from Yuanshan, it would be harming him for the rest of his life. I can't agree to this marriage. She asked him to come to the mansion tomorrow. As a matter of fact, everything was up to him. If he's not willing, then say two more words. "
Lady Wang saw the pain in Fu Ninghui's eyes, but couldn't bear it any longer and said to Fu Heng, "Your sister was just confused for a moment, there's still about three months left. Mother will teach you more, how she was like when she was young, don't you know? You don't have to ruin her marriage. "
Fu Heng shook his head when he heard it, pointing to the stubborn look on Fu Ninghui's face, "Mother, look at her, do you think she can listen to good words? At home, we can still take a look. If I were to marry into the Qin Family and cause trouble for his family, how would I have the face to meet Brother Yuanshan? "
Lady Wang could only give up and wave for Nanny Xue to lead the way.
"What if your sister really gets kicked out of the marriage and gets caught in the act? What should we do then?"
Fu Heng said, "We can only have our wives watch them. But with her temper, how could she be willing to die first if it didn't make anyone feel bad? I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. "
Lady Wang was originally angry, but after getting over the anger, she started to feel pain for Fu Ninghui. Seeing that she could not persuade Fu Heng, with her palm being meat and the back of her hand also meat, she was in a dilemma. She then secretly gave a meaningful glance to Xu Mingwei, clearly wanting her to say something good for Fu Ninghui.
He had fawned over his mother-in-law, but he had actually offended his husband. Besides, she wasn't that much of a saint. She had been slapped in the left cheek and then in the right as well. Therefore, Xu Mingwei pretended to not understand and stood to the side as a competent listener.
When Lady Wang saw that she was as still as a log, she had no choice but to give up. As for who was more important when comparing his daughter with his son, it wasn't as though née Wang couldn't tell. If Fu Hongbo died in front of her, in the old days, she would definitely see the expression on her son's wife's face.
Xu Mingwei didn't know whether she should pass the news of Fu Ninghui's marriage on to Lian Qiubai, or wait for everything to come to a conclusion, so that in the end, everything would be for nothing and she wouldn't worry for nothing.
The next day, as expected, Fu Heng was invited by Qin Jianrui. The two of them discussed in the study room for a long time. Not knowing what Fu Heng had told him, Qin Jianrui still insisted on fulfilling the marriage agreement. Everything was the same as always.
Mrs Wang was naturally happy to receive such a reply. But other than her, not to mention Fu Heng and Xu Mingwei, even Fu Ninghui herself felt that something was amiss. She stared blankly into the copper mirror for an entire afternoon.
It was not hard to understand why Fu Heng would want to talk about it in the evening. Qin Jianrui had always been this inflexible, but anything that he had agreed to, he would definitely keep his promise.
"Honorable Guan Fang, these are the words that the mountain chief gave him before he left, saying that he had left behind an ancient legacy. In my opinion, it's too pedantic. I told him all of the things that Ning Hui did at home. If he wanted to end the engagement, he could just buy a dress from the monk and say that there was something wrong with the word 'eight'. However, he was adamant that Ning Hui was his family when he said that the marriage contract was already set. I just hope that in the future, we won't end our friendship as schoolmates because of enmity. "
Xu Mingwei looked at the bed sheets but did not say anything, this kind of idiot was rare, it made her think of her tail that was born holding onto a pillar and died.
Fu Heng saw that she was silent, he blew out the candle and said gently: "It's fine if you marry out, as I don't want to fight with you at home until I become an eyesore, it's annoying. Go to bed early, and send off your cousin in the morning. "
Xu Mingwei sighed in her heart, and was glad that she didn't give Lian Qiubai hope before. Tomorrow was the day she would go on a long journey, and in the end nothing had changed.
Early morning of the second day, Wan Rong knocked on the door. After hearing that someone was up, she placed the hot water and the handkerchief outside. Fu Heng did not allow them to enter the private room, hence they had always brought water and tea this way. Although it was troublesome, but with Wan Yi and Qing Yang's matter, Wan Rong and the others would rather go through the formalities one more time. After all, not every maid's goal was to climb out of bed and fight for their entire life.
Perhaps because they had said their goodbyes, the sun was still hidden behind the clouds that morning. It was dark and gloomy, and even the faces of the crowd were no longer smiling. There was an extra sense of depression.
Lian Qiubai had changed from his usual plain clothes to a clean, narrow one. When he saw the sad expression on everyone's faces, he giggled and said, "You all look so bitter. What you don't know is actually a funeral."
née Wang said angrily, "Pei pei pei, opening your mouth is such an unlucky thing. Even aunt doesn't know if letting you go like this is a good thing or not. How about you try again, and wait for your father to send a letter, then I'll be at ease. "
Lian Qiubai shook his head and said, "Don't try to persuade me anymore. My mind has already been made up. Even if my father doesn't agree, he won't be able to stop me."
