Chapter 1145
She smiled and said, "Mrs. Ruan just now, did you say how good you are to your granddaughter? What's wrong? Now my princess and sister-in-law said she wants to recognize your granddaughter as her goddaughter. Why are you, a grandmother, not happy? You are not worthy of it? Are you humble or really shameful to your granddaughter?"
These words did not give Mrs. Ruan any face.
Although Mrs. Ruan is the second wife of the Ruan Mansion and does not have an imperial decree, she is still a third-rank official's family. She can't bear it even if she wants to swallow her anger.
She smiled dryly and gritted her teeth and said, "What does Princess Rongle mean?"
"Literally, I just can't stand some people's styles on the surface, but when they ran into the door, they were still scolding the wild girl in the countryside. In a blink of an eye, they told people how they were kind to others and how they thought about them, but they ended up slandering them everywhere...
My princess and sister-in-law clearly wanted to recognize Su Hongshan as her goddaughter, and she insisted that Su Hongshan wanted to take over to the Xiang Prince's Mansion and be my Xiang Prince's concubine. You said that you are really good at making trouble, no wonder that all the rumors about the Ruan Mansion are spreading outside.
Before, I really thought that it was your mistress Ruan’s mansion who was just not disciplined and was the servants of Ruan’s mansion who were gossiping. Now it seems that it is really not the case. It’s really the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked!”
"You..." Mrs. Ruan's face turned pale with anger.
She is a family member of the third-rank official, and her status is not too high but she is definitely not low. She is not treated politely wherever she goes. She has never suffered such grievances and was slapped in the face in public.
"Princess Rongle, you are insulting me! I can sue you for slander." Mrs. Ruan gritted her teeth.
Princess Rongle sneered disdainfully:
"Puff~ You are really funny. My princess and sister-in-law is here. Just sue you, and you need to tell me specifically? Or do you think my princess and sister-in-law can't make decisions for you and want to sue the emperor?
The relationship is good. I want to see what Your Majesty thinks about some people who slander others' reputations on the surface. I want me to see, if an official marrys such a wife, he should not be a official. Can he be a good official so blind? Can he make a decision for the people?"
"Puff!" Su Hongshan couldn't help laughing out loud.
When she saw Princess Rongle in Princess Xiang's yard just now, she left without staying for too long. She didn't expect that she was such a straightforward person.
Look at her timid appearance, she really deserves her appetite.
But when she smiled, she didn't expect Mrs. Ruan to point her finger at her:
"Su Hongshan, you just let outsiders bully your grandmother like this?"
Ruan Rushuang also angrily rebuked: "Su Hongshan, have you colluded with Princess Rongle? Is my mother so kind to you on weekdays? You are actually colluding with outsiders to damage your grandmother's reputation! You are really unfilial! It's extremely hateful!"
Su Hongshan couldn't help rolling her eyes and muttered: "I've really seen shameless people, I've never seen such shameless people."
Her voice was a little small, and no one else could hear it except the close Princess Xiang and the maid who served her.
Princess Xiang liked her temperament. When she heard this, she not only smiled at the corners of her lips.
Then Su Hongshan cleared her throat and said in an orderly manner:
"First, this is my first time meeting Princess Rongle, and there is no collusion.
Second, Princess Rongle is the princess, and I am just a farmer girl. What Princess Rongle wants to do is nothing that I, a little farmer girl, can interfere with.
Third, now someone slanders my reputation. In fact, I really hope to check it out to see who can’t tolerate me so much and damage my reputation everywhere.”
As she said that, she did not give Mrs. Ruan and Ruan Rushuang a chance to react, and stood up and bowed to Princess Xiang, saying respectfully:
"Empress, the civilian woman first arrived in the capital, and I really don't know who she offended. It makes people slander the reputation of the civilian woman so much... Moreover, the reputation of insulting the civilian woman is small, and it is a big deal to ruin the relationship between the empress and the princess. It is really hateful to the person behind the scenes. Please ask the empress to investigate this matter strictly."
She said that, looking at the Ruan mother and daughter. In their hatred eyes, the corners of her lips slowly curled up and sneered, and continued:
