Ji Shu looked indulgent and nodded slowly.
"What my aunt said is that she is indeed worried about my health and offered to help me share the burden. She is also kind-hearted."
As soon as these words came out, the women looked at Jiang Fu with even more subtle eyes.
Is it a good intention or a bad intention?
Mrs. Yu exaggeratedly announced: "This Wuding Hou Mansion has been colluding since Madam Hou, and only caught the Young Madam being bullied by an outsider. This is really eye-opening."
"Sister-in-law!"
Jiang Fu was so angry that she fell back, gently tugged on Mrs. Li's wide sleeves, and begged for help.
"I, the middle minister of the Marquis Mansion, want to blame anyone who is not in charge of me!"
Mrs. Li shouted loudly and blushed.
"What do you know! Mrs. Ji has been in charge of the middle school for six years, and the life in the house has been like this! Fu'er wants to help her share the burden because she cares about her. It would be fine if Fu'er didn't manage it well, but now Hou The house is in perfect order, and everyone praises Fu'er! It's only natural to give up your seat if you can't help it!"
Li glanced at Ji Shu up and down, full of criticism and disgust.
"Did you see it? Fu'er made this for me, imperial green jadeite! I have it all on my body! Where have I seen such good things in the past?"
Li's misfortune began, "Everyone said that I, the Marquis of Wuding, treated her Ji Shu harshly. Who would have thought how she treated me at home! As a mother-in-law, when I asked about a new set of jewelry, she would hesitate for a long time and said There’s no money in the shop!”
Many female guests were attracted. When they saw that the person who said this was Mrs. Hou from Wuding Hou Mansion, they started talking.
"Really or not? Didn't you say that the young lady of Wudinghou Mansion is very filial? She has been a widow for six years!"
"I don't believe there is such a good woman. She may not know how she treats her parents-in-law behind her back. Now her true colors will be revealed!"
Jiang Fu looked at Ji Shu gloatingly, but she wanted to see how Ji Shu would explain.
Ji Shu calmly looked at Mr. Li going crazy and said calmly:
"My daughter-in-law has been married to the Marquis of Wuding for six years, and she has a clear conscience for everything she has done. If your mother-in-law thinks that your daughter-in-law has abused you, why don't you write a piece of paper and submit it to the Shuntian Mansion Yamen to sue me and ask Mr. Fu Yin to seek justice for you. , it’s a good idea to restore my daughter-in-law’s innocence.”
Li was dumbfounded.
She just said a few words to Hu Qin, Ji Shu took the wrong medicine today, so he went online like this!
"If you can't write, I'll find someone to help you write the petition." Ji Shu said slowly.
"This Mrs. Qi is really strong-tempered. She must have been wronged!"
"That's too tragic! After suffering so many grievances in the Hou Mansion, I was framed like this by my mother-in-law!"
Mrs. Li was so angry that she felt top-heavy and couldn't stand upright after being pointed at by everyone.
Jiang Fu quickly supported her, and Mrs. Li said: "Nonsense! You are shameless and I have the shame of the Wuding Marquis Mansion! It's just a trivial matter, why should I report it to the official..."
"You said that I abused you. This crime is not a small matter. If you sit still, your neck will be hanged. If you don't clarify it, I won't be able to see anyone in the future."
Ji Shu turned away and pretended to shed tears.
Xitao sobbed in a low voice, "My poor young lady! She suffered all kinds of wrongs in the Marquis' Mansion, was forced to give away the middle-class gifts, and was stabbed in the back by the madam. What did my young lady do wrong?"
"Madam, you have to speak with your conscience. In the past six years, you have asked the young madam what you want, but the young madam has not given it to you! Is it because you are short of food or clothing? It's not like you have only gone out in the past few months. In previous years, you have gone The clothes and jewelry worn at the banquet are not all money earned by the young lady’s housekeeper. You can’t frame the young lady just because you favor Jiang Fu!”
"I, I, I, I framed her, what did I...I didn't say she wouldn't give it, I meant...she was always grinding..."
Ms. Li kept swallowing her saliva, as things developed beyond her imagination.
There was a commotion over there among the female guests, and the male guests across the wall also heard the commotion.
Someone came back from watching the fun at the Yuemen Gate and happened to see Qi Chengxu drinking with his friends in the pavilion. He said with a smile:
"Second Master Qi! You're still drinking! Your wife and your mother are about to start a fight next door. Why don't you go and see!"
Qi Chengxu paused while holding the wine glass.
Ji Shu and Li were fighting?
Rather than believe it or not, Qi Chengxu lifted his robe, jumped out of the pavilion, and walked to the next door.
A group of young men followed him curiously.
As soon as the group stepped out of the garden, they heard a sharp voice saying:
"Get out of my way! I want to take my daughter-in-law home, what are you doing to stop me! You bunch of tongue-tied women! Sooner or later your tongue will rot!"
"Li Cunhong, say one more thing! This is Jingkangbo Mansion, not a small village in the countryside like you want! Come here, get her out of here!"
Mrs. Yu stepped forward to stop her but was pushed down by Mr. Li. In a rage, she called for the guards to drive them away.
Mrs. Li was angry. Before she married into the Wuding Hou Mansion, she was the daughter of the village chief. What she hated most in her life was that she was not a high-born girl and was once a village girl in the countryside!
It took her how many years to clean herself up and brainwash herself that she was no different from these noble girls who were born with golden keys in their mouths.
Li Shi rushed towards Yu Shi and pulled her bun hard.
"Mrs. Bo! Someone, come quickly! Pull them away quickly!"
What started as a verbal argument turned into a real fight. Qi Chengxu quickly stepped forward, hugged Li and dragged her aside.
He asked in disbelief: "Mom! What are you doing! This is Jingkang Bo's Mansion! We are here for a banquet, what are you doing?!"
It has been more than 20 years since Mrs. Li married into the Wuding Marquis Mansion. Even though she is still vulgar and barbaric at heart, she manages to handle it well on the surface. But what is going on now?
"She was the one who made the rude remarks first! If she hadn't scolded me first, I wouldn't have done anything! Xu'er, you have to make the decision for mother!"
Mrs. Li grabbed her son's sleeves and glared at Mr. Yu, feeling extremely aggrieved.
The guests around didn't know what to say. The Li family was at fault, but the Yu family was not much better. They were evenly matched.
"If Ji Shu hadn't misinterpreted my sister-in-law's meaning and said she wanted to go to court, my sister-in-law wouldn't have started a fight with Mrs. Bo."
Jiang Fu secretly stirred up dissension, and coupled with what the male family members said before, Qi Chengxu immediately pointed the finger at Ji Shu.
"Ji Shu, have you had enough trouble? What do you want?!"
Tsk.
Everyone shook their heads, saying that Mrs. Qi Er was suffering. How could she not be suffering after marrying such a confused and heartless husband?
Ji Shu stood in the crowd, slowly bent down, wrapped it in a silk handkerchief and picked up a hairpin.
"My mother's imperial green jade hairpin is broken. Do you want to take a look?"
Li's cry stopped, she touched her head, screamed and rushed forward.
"My hairpin! How do you want to compensate me, Yu!"
Yu's heart skipped a beat. Imperial green jadeite was worth a lot of money. Even if her daughter was a noble of the emperor, she wouldn't have such a good thing.
Ji Shu avoided Li's snatching hand and handed it directly to Yu.
"Mrs. uncle, how do you think you want to compensate?"
Yu's eyelids kept twitching, she took the hairpin with trembling hands, and took a closer look——
"What is this! Ha! Mrs. Hou couldn't have been specially prepared to blackmail me today!!"
Yushi smashed the hairpin on the ground.
"What kind of broken stone dares to be used as imperial green jade! Are you so frustrated and crazy?!"
