Chapter 432 Interrogation
Mr. Liang believed that his youngest son was not good at being successful and could not succeed in his literature or martial arts. In the future, he could only rely on a good Yue family to help him. As for Miss Dong and the young lady from a wealthy family, he was not much different.
Both the mother-in-law and husband believed that the introduction of my sister-in-law was good. No one was willing to listen to Mrs. Liang, and she had no choice. Later, she thought, it was no big deal. Can a daughter-in-law beat her mother-in-law? She didn't believe that she couldn't even control a little girl.
Unexpectedly, after Dong Guifeng passed by, she was different from what she expected. Dong Guifeng seemed gentle and virtuous and could persuade her son. She was a little surprised. Later, when Dong Guifeng hinted that she offended her stepmother and Mrs. Hu, the two of them joined forces to marry Mr. Liang San they thought they were not good.
Out of resentment towards her sister-in-law, Mrs. Liang did not make things difficult for Dong Guifeng. Over time, Mrs. Hu was even more fulfilled. Later, something happened to the Hu family, and Dong Guifeng also gave her some ideas and could coax the grandma and not interfere too much in Mrs. Hu's affairs. It was just because the things Mrs. Hu did behind her back were scary. If she really wanted to reveal it, the whole Liang family would be implicated.
Just then, she believed Dong Guifeng with a crush on her, and no longer restrained her every move. She didn't care when she frequently went out, went back to her parents' home, or went to socialize.
Just because his wife was seeking an official position for her son, she was not very glorious when she said it. As long as she pretended not to know, her in-laws such as Mrs. Dong would complain in the future, she could completely blame her. Even Mrs. Liang gave Dong Guifeng a lot of good things behind her back, and she knew it, so she hid it from the other two daughters-in-law.
It is definitely necessary to seek an official position. It is difficult to leave empty-handed. It is not without doubt whether Dong Guifeng secretly puts the money into her pocket. But thinking that Dong Guifeng is a woman who doesn’t have a relationship with her parents’ family, she will eventually fall on her son if she gets so much money.
Compared to the other two sons, the younger son's future is probably more difficult, so she is willing to provide for it. However, due to the other two daughters-in-law, it is difficult to give too much. In addition, the younger son's temperament, he can't hold the money in his hands. Since Dong Guifeng has a way, let her go. Anyway, it's already a family, so what's wrong? Dong Guifeng also has a lot of dowry, and it's easy to let her spit out the money.
I really didn't expect that Dong Guifeng was so bold and harassing Mrs. Dong's relatives.
However, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Liang family, Zhuang is more steady. She saw some doubts and said to Mrs. Liang: "Mother-in-law, I heard that the third brother and sister-in-law have always had a bad relationship with Mrs. Dong. Even if there is something difficult... how could I ask the Meng family to see if there is any misunderstanding? I don't look at Mrs. Dong, but I'm not a kind person."
Mrs. Liang shook her head. It was not that she hadn't thought of this.
It is definitely not fake that Mrs. Dong dares to provoke such an insult. Every time Dong Guifeng goes out, she will have more or less maids and servants follow her. Mrs. Dong’s relatives, such as the Meng family. If Dong Guifeng really has never been there, Mrs. Dong is not a fool. Wouldn’t you be afraid of being exposed if you fabricate such a thing in person?
As the eldest daughter-in-law said, their mother-daughter relationship is bad, so no one can ask for it to Mrs. Dong's parents' home. According to Mrs. Dong, it may be a bit exaggerated to go to Meng's house to harass her repeatedly and stay at other people's house and not leave. However, it is definitely not a shadowless thing.
Mrs. Dong couldn't sit still, but Dong Guifeng followed the lady to the temple to burn incense and would not come back for a while. She couldn't send someone to urge her. The lady was praying for her precious daughter, Mrs. Hu, and it would be a sign that would ruin her. With her mother-in-law's heart, she would definitely take her anger on her again.
However, if you can't confront Dong Guifeng for the time being, there is still something else to do.
Mrs. Dong immediately ordered someone to find all the maids and mothers who were in the room next to Dong Guifeng. Every time Dong Guifeng went out, she would have a maid to accompany her. This time she would accompany her wife to burn incense, so she would not bring so many people, so naturally there would be someone who knew the inside story.
The interrogation will be made clear before Dong Guifeng can be made unable to argue.
Coincidentally, Dong Guifeng's personal maid Bai Ling did not accompany Dong Guifeng out because of some coughing in the past two days. If it were said that what Dong Guifeng did, there would be no clearer than this maid.
When the master was away, she lay down on the bed to rest. Suddenly, a group of stout women broke into the house, dragged her off the bed, and dragged her to Mrs. Liang with disheveled hair.
Bai Ling, who didn't know what was going on, was frightened and knelt on the ground and shivered.
Mrs. Liang, above, was dissatisfied with Han Shuang's face and did not give her any chance to think. She immediately asked, "Tell me, whose family your master has been to recently? Let me explain it clearly. Just say that if you miss your family, be careful with your skin, you must know that you are not the only maid in front of your master."
"I...I." Bai Ling stuttered, unable to say a complete sentence, and his mind quickly turned, but the current environment did not give her time to think about it.
After hesitating for a moment, Madam Xia, beside Mrs. Liang, drank again: "Madam, you slut, dare to hesitate. Do you don't want to live anymore? If you don't talk, don't talk in the future. There is a bowl of mute medicine here. If you drink it, you can keep the secret for your master and be a loyal maid for the rest of your life."
While saying that, Madam Xia sent a bowl of medicine that had a pungent smell to Bai Ling. Bai Ling hurriedly hid back, but the two stout women beside her pressed her down, making her unable to be turbulent.
"I said, I said..." Seeing the Yaowan touching her lips, Bai Ling instinctively screamed.
Madam Xia held up the bowl and looked at her, as if she was hesitating anymore and continued to get medicine.
Bai Ling's psychological defense finally collapsed and cried, "I went out with these third young ladies. The most common one at the beginning was to go back to the Dong family, and later went to the Liu family once, and then to the Wang family once..."
Mrs. Liang looked at Bai Ling coldly.
After Bai Ling finished speaking some irrelevant families, he looked up and touched Mrs. Liang's cold eyes, gritted his teeth, and then said, "And... I went to the young lady's aunt Meng's house three times, and other... I don't remember other slaves."
"Is that right?" Mrs. Liang continued to have a cold face and elongate her voice, "Don't you really remember?"
Bai Ling was about to nod, but Madam Xia held up the medicine bowl and said, "Although this bowl of medicine is a mute medicine, if you drink less, it will be fine for your voice, which will easily make people recover their memory. Do you want to take a sip?"
"No..." Bai Ling looked at Yaowan in horror and said to himself, "The young lady also went to the Ding Prince's Mansion... but the people from the Ding Prince's Mansion let her enter the door... The other servants really don't know."
After even going to the Ding Prince's Mansion, Mrs. Liang suddenly became furious.
This is what Mrs. Dong said, was it harassed her relatives' home? It is not convenient to say the name, so it can only be said.
Unexpectedly, Dong Guifeng was so bold, what kind of family the Dingwang Mansion is now. How could ordinary people get involved? Who made her embarrassingly go to Dingwang Mansion?
I thought about it with my toes, how could Princess Ding pay attention to her now? How many noble ladies with prominent husbands' status were rejected in Princes Ding's Mansion? Why should they give the first case for such a relative who cannot beat her?
Besides, now that Prince Ding is not here, Prince Ding is in confinement, and she has never seen Dong Guifeng mention that she wants to go to Prince Ding’s Mansion and have a son. After she firmly sat down as the princess, she licked her face and curled up to the door, hoping to get the benefits. She thought who was a fool? This is a big joke.
At night, Mrs. Liang's anger became more and more intense. It was so extreme.
Mrs. Liang and Dong Guifeng returned home only.
As soon as he entered the door, Dong Guifeng felt that the atmosphere was not right, and the gazes of the servants around him seemed to be gloating. He seemed to have sympathy. Zhuang and Mei came out when they saw each other and squeezed her aside.
Mei supported Mrs. Liang, while Mrs. Zhuang smiled and said, "My third brother and sister are back. Are you tired? Mrs. has us here. You can go back to the house and rest."
"No, I'm not tired. How can I get tired after following Mrs. Liang?" Dong Guifeng answered cautiously, and even wanted to step forward to support Mrs. Liang again.
Mei stopped her without a trace and said, "Three brothers and sisters, I just heard from the servants that Bai Ling, the maid in your room, seems to be not very good. Although she is a maid, she is a dowry after all, so she should go back and take a look first. If it is really not good, she has to hire a good doctor to take a look."
Mrs. Liang liked to do some small charity in her later years, especially tolerant to her servants, which was quite popular with the little maids. After hearing this, she hurried to Dong Guifeng, "Since that's the case, from the third family, go and have a look. Bailing is quite clever and likable, so please ask Dr. Sun to come and take a look. Just go from the warehouse if you need any medicinal materials. Amitabha, don't let this girl suffer too much."
Although he knew that things would not be that simple, Dong Guifeng couldn't find any reason to go through it at this time.
So he thought of trying his best. This is in the Liang family and he can't avoid anything. Although Mrs. Liang is a bit stricter, she is not a crazy person. At most, she will be scolded a few times.
After everyone surrounded Mrs. Liang and left, Dong Guifeng took her maid to the courtyard where she lived. Before she could reach the door, several nannies serving Mrs. Liang came over, and the leader was Madam Xia, whom Mrs. Liang trusted the most.
Madam Xia came to Dong Guifeng with a smirk, bowed her knees slightly and said, "Madam Third Young Master, please invite me."
"This... Madam, I just came back from outside. Let me change my clothes and clean them up before going to see my mother-in-law after cleaning my face." Seeing Madam Xia's expression, Dong Guifeng felt something was wrong in her heart. She didn't want to go over immediately, so she thought to go back to the house to explain to her maid a few times. Seeing that the situation was not good, she immediately moved Mrs. Liang as a reinforcement.
"Mrs. Young Madam, Madam has been waiting for you since the beginning. Don't let the Madam wait in a hurry. It doesn't take so much courtesy for the whole family." Madam Xia said, and forced herself to come forward to support Dong Guifeng.
"Madam..." Dong Guifeng was anxious and hurriedly winked at her maids and mother-in-law. However, these maids and mother-in-law were not so smart, and could understand something from a single eye.
Given the status of Madam Xia in the mansion, even her master was polite, and those maids and mothers didn't dare to say anything. Besides, Dong Guifeng was not a kind person at first, and she couldn't be very good at treating maids and mothers, so she wouldn't dare to do anything about these people.
They couldn't think of anything serious. Mrs. Liang would never be able to do anything to her daughter-in-law. She probably scolded her and asked the third young lady to set rules. The Liang family could not do anything to abuse her daughter-in-law. Besides, the situation is unclear now, what can they do? A bunch of people rushed over to fight with Mrs. Xia? If that's true, it would be true again if it's okay.
So the maid and the old lady beside Dong Guifeng watched helplessly as Madam Xia dragged her master to Madam Liang's yard, intending to follow, but those maids were blocking the intersection intentionally or unintentionally. In just a while, Madam Xia and others had already walked away...
Dong Guifeng arrived in Mrs. Liang's yard.
When she entered the living room, she saw Mrs. Liang sitting upright on her head, her face turned to the side, and her close maid Bai Ling kneeled on the side with her hair disheveled. She felt a chill in her heart, but she still gritted her teeth and saluted. After that, she couldn't pretend that she couldn't see Bai Ling, and said, "Mother-in-law, has Bai Ling made you angry? I will teach her a lesson later."
As the saying goes, "Don't hit a smile on your face, but Mrs. Liang didn't care about her identity at this time and said sternly: "Don't you ask, what mistake did this maid make? Do you think it's me, my mother-in-law, who is unreasonable and punishes your maid?"
"Don't calm down, my wife dare not." Dong Guifeng lowered her head and listened to the lesson respectfully.
In the past, her appearance really made Mrs. Liang calm down, but now Mrs. Liang looks at her appearance again and feels that she is fooling her, and she is in front of her and behind her voice is even more stern: "I ask you, you have been out frequently recently and say you miss your parents and go back to your parents' home to see you. It's not easy to stop me, as a mother-in-law, and I will tell you to be filial to my parents-in-law and mother-in-law. What did you do?"
"The wife is really just going back to her parents' home to be filial, talk to her parents, and then look at her brother." Dong Guifeng said aggrievedly.
"Your mother has been here today, she didn't say that." Mrs. Liang didn't want to go around circles with Dong Guifeng, so she just said that.
"Mother...Mother has had quite a misunderstanding about her daughter-in-law in the past." Dong Guifeng said even more aggrievedly, "This is also a bad thing when she is a daughter-in-law and a girl. At that time, she did not respect her mother well, so that her mother would have misunderstandings about her daughter-in-law, which will never be eliminated now."
"You didn't ask, what your mother said, could you know the reason for her accusation?" Mrs. Liang stared in Dong Guifeng's eyes, as if she had seen through everything.
They were all cultivated in a complex inner courtyard. Mrs. Liang was not an innocent person. She had no precautions before, which made Dong Guifeng fool her easily. Once she became wary of her, it was not easy to lie to her. When the incident happened suddenly, Dong Guifeng had no time to make up seamless lies. (To be continued ~^~)
