Regardless of other people's comments, Xie Wanyu continued, "The man my grandmother saw in my room was a doctor invited back by my elder sister-in-law. It was normal for him to come in and out of the house. Last time, he was also diagnosing my pulse in my grandmother's room. Could it be that Grandma, you too..."
Xie Wanyu didn't finish her words, but it was obvious what she wanted to say.
At that time, Mrs. Xiao's face turned green and white.
"What are you talking about? Do you still have dignity and inferiority in your eyes? The Imperial Master family actually taught a woman like you, which really brings shame to our ancestors." Mrs. Xiao is still enduring for the sake of face.
She tried to put all the blame on Xie Wanyu.
So every word she said was pouring dirty water on Xie Wanyu, "I don't understand anything you say, but you grew up spoiled and had no respect in your eyes. You beat your husband and humiliated your eldest sister-in-law..."
Xie Wanyu looked at Mrs. Xiao, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart when she saw her expression. A bad premonition arose spontaneously. She stopped in time. If she continued talking at this time, what would be the difference between her and Xie Wanyu who didn't understand the rules? .
So Mrs. Xiao stopped wisely.
"Grandma, what are you mainly here for today?" Xie Wanyu asked.
"Of course I'm here to deal with you, an unruly woman, and I feel particularly sad." Mrs. Xiao sighed immediately.
The patriarch didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only stroke his beard and pretend that this matter had nothing to do with him.
Xie Wanyu lowered her head, "Grandma, you have always been the most fair. Don't you trust me at all?"
"It's not that grandma can't trust you, it's just that what can grandma do about the things you have done." Madam Xiao expressed her heartache, as if she felt very sorry for Xie Wanyu, "You can go with peace of mind, grandma will definitely give you a good burial."
From beginning to end, Xie Wanyu's dowry was never mentioned.
However, Xie Wanyu still said, "When will my grandmother return my dowry to the Xie family?"
"I have my own arrangements for the future." Mrs. Xiao said with a stiff expression. She could only be shameless now, although the expressions everyone looked at her were a little more sarcastic.
There is no way, Xie Wanyu's dowry is too generous, which is very tempting to anyone.
The way everyone looked at Mrs. Xiao had begun to change.
Mrs. Xiao was originally very respected in the entire Xiao family, and she had always been shown to be extremely fair in the eyes of everyone.
Xie Wanyu smiled slightly. For the sake of her generous dowry, Mrs. Xiao was too lazy to pretend any longer.
"Grandma, if I can prove my innocence, are you willing to apologize in front of everyone?" Xie Wanyu said.
She was so eloquent that she surprised everyone.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but shrink back when she saw Xie Wanyu's vow. She didn't dare to respond directly to Xie Wanyu's words. Instead, she said, "Okay, don't make any unnecessary struggles anymore."
Mrs. Xiao didn't answer the call at all.
Xie Wanyu glanced at everyone. They were either indifferent, contemptuous, or looking like they were watching a good show.
It turned out that no one cared about her innocence at all, they just came here to watch the fun.
Xie Wanyu gathered her thoughts and said calmly, "In that case, I won't be polite." After saying that, she looked at Xue Xuening, "Sister-in-law, if it's Shen Tang, you and I shouldn't be together..."
Before she finished speaking, she heard the servant's voice.
"Happy, Mr. Xie!"
Immediately afterwards, Xie Wanyu saw Xie Ruan walking over in a long robe. He was already tall and stood out among the crowd.
He strode to Xie Wanyu's side, and then looked at everyone, "The Xiao family is going to kill my sister. As the elder brother, I naturally have to come and see for myself."
The generous back blocked the weak Xie Wanyu. At this moment, Xie Wanyu's heart felt warm.
His sharp eyes scanned everyone, and finally stopped at Mrs. Xiao, "Mrs. Xiao, what do you think?"
"If, if that's the case, then..." Mrs. Xiao stuttered a little.
Xie Wanyu smiled and said again, "If I can prove my innocence, my grandmother will apologize to me in front of these people. Are you willing?"
Mrs. Xiao did not answer, but looked at Xie Wanyu with hatred, but was quickly blocked by Xie Ru'an, "Mrs. Xiao, could it be that you don't understand what my sister said?"
"Who said you don't understand?" Xiao Yinshuang couldn't swallow it when she saw Mrs. Xiao didn't speak. "Apologise, just apologize."
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Xiao glared at her and said instantly, "What if you can't prove your innocence?"
Xie Wanyu immediately said, "I will give you all my dowry."
This is tantamount to a particularly big temptation for the Xiao family.
Xie Ruan looked at Xie Wanyu, "Don't be afraid, brother believes in you." Just like when he was young, Xie Wanyu always stood behind Xie Ruan.
Mrs. Xiao didn't dare to make this bet. She could support the declining Xiao family by herself. She was definitely not a kind person and could not easily agree to this bet.
"Grandma, please promise her." Xiao Yinshuang said, "Let's see how she proves her innocence?"
Mrs. Xiao was unmoved, but faced with Xie Wanyu's dowry, she fell into a tangle in her heart.
"It's not like she hasn't slept with Jing'er. How can she prove it?" Xiao Yinshuang kept persuading Mrs. Xiao in her ears.
Xie Wanyu stood there and continued, "If you don't let me prove my innocence, then even if I die, my dowry will still belong to the Xie family."
When Xie Ru'an heard what Xie Wanyu said, she immediately covered her mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, I tell you, even if the daughter of my Xie family is despised by everyone in the world, the Xie family will still support her."
After speaking, he glanced at everyone with stern eyes.
The patriarch stood there, his eyes looking at his nose, and his nose looking at his heart.
There were too many dirty things in the Xiao family, and he was too lazy to intervene or take care of them.
"Grandma..." Xiao Yinshuang urged.
After Mrs. Xiao weighed the matter, she immediately said, "Then you prove your innocence."
Xiao Yinshuang showed a proud smile. She had hated Xie Wanyu for a long time, and now she wished she was forced to death. Moreover, with the dowry left by Xie Wanyu, she could climb a high tree and marry a marquis.
Xie Wanyu knew that they were all coveting her dowry, so she would definitely agree.
So she smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Things have reached this point today, so Wanyu can only be rude." After saying that, she lifted up her sleeves.
In a country with strict etiquette and rules like this, it was indeed inappropriate for her to do this, but in small families, there were also women who rolled up their sleeves and did menial work, so it was not considered treasonous.
Some men looked away quickly after taking one look.
On the other hand, all the women looked directly at her arm. There was an obvious mark on her arm, which was Shou Gong Sha.
