The atmosphere at the scene changed instantly.
Beat Mrs. Xiao?
This Wang Xiaoning is really ruthless, targeting the eldest lady.
After all, no one knows the eldest lady’s life experience.
Wang Xiaoning also guessed that if something went wrong, there would be no way to end it.
So this method was used to force the opponent to retreat. As long as the eldest lady retreated, she would be said to have a guilty conscience.
If you continue to spread rumors in the future, more people will believe it.
But if you don’t retreat...
Wang Xiaoning thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's impossible, unless she doesn't even want her life."
Lin Wanjie was very nervous. This was an unexpected change. He originally thought that he would just get beaten, but he neglected that the eldest lady might be involved.
However, this statement was accepted by the people.
A woman's honor and integrity must be protected by the woman herself, how can a man be punished on her behalf?
If everyone behaves like this in the future, won’t it lead to chaos?
"That's right." The magistrate spoke slowly and looked at the eldest lady, "According to the laws of Daxia, if you sue someone for slandering your reputation, you must be punished. Madam Xiao, it seems that this case was settled privately. ?”
"lady!"
Lin Wanjie was a little panicked. It would not be worthwhile for the eldest lady to suffer at this time.
There are plenty of ways to take revenge, but at worst, you can go back and make plans, so there is no need to rush.
Before Lin Wanjie could persuade her, the eldest lady stepped forward firmly: "I will continue to sue!"
As soon as the eldest lady said this, the whole place was in an uproar.
Wang Xiaoning's expression changed a little, feeling the seriousness of the matter.
"Wang Yumeng, do you have to keep making trouble? Let me tell you, you can't blame me if you are beaten to death?"
The eldest lady was unmoved: "Even if it means death, a mother must defend the dignity of her daughter."
"Mother!" Xiao Yuchan cried and rushed forward. She didn't care anymore, it was just a title. She didn't want her mother to suffer. "Mother, let's go back and stop suing. From now on, just call them whatever they want, me, me I don’t care.”
"Yuchan, remember, you are my mother's flesh and blood. This is a fact that no one can change! Lin Da is right, if we escape once, new people will come to bully us."
After the eldest lady finished speaking, she looked at Lin Wanjie: "Lin Da, you will support me, right?"
In one sentence, all Lin Wanjie's words were blocked.
Ten boards were nothing to him, but to a woman, it was not light. A slightly weaker person might die directly.
However, the eldest lady is obviously not that kind of frail woman. She was able to protect herself strongly even when she was sold to a brothel, and the entire Xiao family could withstand the pressure on her shoulders, let alone ten boards?
Lin Wanjie believed that the eldest lady would be fine, but felt sorry for her suffering.
Silently, the eldest lady lay down on the stool and said lightly: "You can hit me now."
Lin Wanjie frowned, tore off his sleeve, wrapped it into a ball of cloth, and stuffed it into the eldest lady: "Madam, bite it, it will be over in a while. As long as I can hold on, I will make the slanderer pay the price, believe me, it will definitely happen!" "
…
News spread quickly in Yangzhou, and behind the magistrate's office was the Wu Family Courtyard, which sold wine.
Xiaolian was a little anxious after all when she heard that the eldest lady was about to be beaten.
The relationship between master and servant is still there, but she just doesn't want the master to think that she still misses her former master, so she would act mean in the past.
But as soon as the news was heard, it was heard, and Xiaolian couldn't do much to help.
The only thing he could do was to light three sticks of incense and go to the Buddhist hall in the house to pray.
Yesterday, the young master at home came back from hunting and brought back a jug of wine. I heard it was very clear and delicious.
But because it was too little, she didn't taste a bite.
The Wu family sells wine, and it is very large.
A new wine suddenly appeared in Yangzhou. The better it tasted, the more threatened the Wu family was.
Therefore, the master of the Wu family asked his son to buy all the wine early in the morning. Before the wine called Peach Blossom Drunk spreads, it must be killed in the early stages.
Now, everyone in the Wu family, big and small, has gathered in the living room to discuss how to deal with this wine for an hour!
As a concubine bought from a brothel, Xiaolian had nothing to do with such things, and it was not her turn to worry about it.
But it was strange today. Xiaolian was worshiping Buddha, and a maid came to the door: "Master and everyone in the family are calling you."
Xiaolian was stunned for a moment: "Call me?"
"Hurry up, don't keep the big men waiting, otherwise you will suffer."
The maid was very disdainful, and her attitude towards the young lady was not good. She was far from as chic and refined as she was in front of the eldest lady.
Xiaolian didn't think about it carefully. Anyway, she would do whatever the master ordered.
So he got up and followed him to the living room.
The battle in the living room shocked Xiaolian. Not only was the master there, but also the elders of the Wu family and all the shopkeepers of the wine shop were here.
Everyone was drunk with peach blossoms, and their expressions were serious.
Once this kind of wine spreads, the Wu family's business will definitely plummet.
Everyone was still worried just now and couldn't think of a good way to deal with it.
But now I suddenly received good news. Mrs. Xiao, who brewed this wine, sent it to the Yamen and seemed to have started a lawsuit.
When Xiaolian arrived, the master of the Wu family grabbed her hand with a smile, pulled her to his side, and asked softly: "Xiaolian, I heard that you used to be the personal maid of the eldest wife of the Xiao family in Hangzhou?"
"Yes." Xiaolian nodded weakly.
"How does Mrs. Xiao treat you?"
"..." Xiaolian thought for a while and said, "Madam is not very good to me, nor is she too bad."
"Then tell me, which one is better, the master or the Xiao family's wife?"
"Of course...it's because the master treats me better. I was just a slave in the Xiao family, and I am what I am today because of the master's love and persistence."
"That's good." The master of the Wu family was very satisfied and nodded, "You are Mrs. Xiao's personal maid. You should know the affairs of the Xiao family very well."
"Know something."
"Then let me ask you, when did this kind of wine called Peach Blossom Drunk appear?"
"Peach Blossom Drunk? The Xiao family has never had this kind of wine."
Mr. Wu's face became a little gloomy, and the others also became gloomy.
"Try it."
The master handed Xiaolian a glass of wine.
Xiaolian felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing and did not dare to ask any more questions, so she quickly drank.
But the wine tasted pure and strong, which made Xiaolian's eyes light up: "Is this really the wine I bought from Madam?"
"The Xiao family came to Yangzhou to compete with our Wu family for business with this wine. Now that you are a member of the Wu family, you should make suggestions for the Wu family. You must tell us how much you know about this wine."
At this time, another person said: "It would be best if you knew how to brew."
"Master, I have been in the Xiao family for several years, but I have never seen this wine."
"Snapped!"
The master of the Wu family just slapped him, and his expression suddenly changed: "Bitch, you are playing riddles for me! Are you thinking of your old master's love and not explaining it clearly to me?"
