Grandma Hong folded her hands, bent slightly, and bowed to Mrs. Xu Guogong.
"I'm here to see Mr. Su," she said. "Our second wife is sick, and the eldest girl has injured her ankle. The culprit must be punished today. I'm here to have a look, so that I can go home and tell my masters."
Mrs. Xu Guogong's body was shaking with anger.
Su Ke said fiercely: "Have you seen it now? Are you satisfied? Get out!"
Aunt Hong's expression remained unchanged: "After reading it, I'm quite satisfied. It won't be too late for me to return home after the Third Young Master leaves the city."
This response was gentle in tone but very arrogant in attitude.
Mrs. Xu Guogong couldn't hold back her anger and cursed: "It's true that a tiger has been bullied by a dog! How dare a woman come to our Duke Xu's house and talk nonsense!"
I really regret it now, I regret that I set such a marriage for Keer!
The daughter of a concubine, let us beg you to marry her. Where is your sincerity? Even if they break off the engagement, they won’t let us go!
If it weren't for Lin Yunjing, how could something happen to Ke'er?
What bad luck! "
Not far away, Mrs. Xu Guogong woke up.
She had cried so hard that she was exhausted, and was helped to the car to rest by the maids.
Unexpectedly, with just a little effort, my mother-in-law would...
Before coming out, they had obviously discussed it, but they just met Ke'er and never mentioned anything about it.
Now, not only is it mentioned, but it is also so vicious and confusing.
How will she explain to the Duke later?
Without caring about her own health, the Duke's wife hurriedly got out of the car, stumbled into the old lady's side, and advised her: "Don't be angry, she is just a woman, she is not worth getting angry with."
Grandma Hong's face was full of anger, but she was extremely restrained: "You are wrong to say that.
No matter whose family the Third Young Master was originally engaged to, if his inappropriate behavior is exposed, the woman will want to break off the engagement.
It is said that we girls are lucky to have discovered this matter before we got married. If it were after marriage, I don’t know if we would be able to escape!
Now that the engagement has been broken up, the two families have returned to their own homes and have nothing to do with each other from now on.
But the Third Young Master deliberately harmed others and almost killed our wife and girl!
If you are looking for trouble on your own, we will say, 'It's bad luck! "
"You!" Mrs. Xu Guogong couldn't hear such words, her blood surged and she couldn't stop talking.
All those excuses for Su Ke were poured out.
The Duke's wife was so anxious that she wanted to cover the old lady's mouth, but she only covered half of it. Seeing that more and more people were watching around, and the chatter became more and more serious, a white light flashed in front of her eyes and passed away again.
Seeing that something was not going well here, the city gate guards hurriedly came to maintain the situation.
First, he asked the escorting officials to take Su Ke out of the city, and then asked the people from Duke Xu's mansion to take the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law away.
Grandma Hong sighed: "Drowning a child is like killing a child."
After saying that, she took one last look at Su Ke's back and turned towards her carriage.
The common people did not disperse, they were still discussing each other.
"The old lady was crying so sadly. I thought she was a charitable person, but I didn't expect her to be so fierce!"
"How can he raise a grandson like that without being cruel? It's obvious that his grandson is in a mess. In the end, it's all other people's fault."
"Uncle Chengyi's house is really lucky. If he found out after marriage, Duke Xu's house would be so unreasonable, and it would be difficult to reconcile."
"No! Uncle Chengyi will not quarrel if he sees it, he will only reason."
"Look at my grandma, no matter how angry she is, she always speaks in a straight tone."
"What did scholars call this a while ago?"
"Neither humble nor arrogant."
"Yes, yes, neither humble nor arrogant!"
On the carriage, Grandma Hong took the drink that Wan Yue handed her, moistened her throat and calmed down her shock.
After drinking a bowl of sweet hot drink, she felt much better.
"There's still something you can do."
Grandma Hong said to Lin Yunyan.
Lin Yunyan smiled lightly.
She knew that it was not only Su Ke who could not be offended, but also Mrs. Xu Guogong.
Once the blood is high, you dare to say anything nonsense.
As for the problem of getting over in a hurry, it seems that he inherited it from the Duke's wife.
"One is one, and two is two. Su Ke did evil first, so we can't let them cry together and let people only remember the friendship between ancestors and grandchildren." Lin Yunyan said.
Grandma Hong nodded: "If the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, we must see through their true colors."
After saying that, she patted her chest again: "To tell you the truth, my heart was beating fast when I said what I just said. If you want to make a joke, the old lady will bite you when she sees the hook, but you can't really laugh, so you can only keep a straight face. If you speak, you will almost reveal your secret."
Wan Yue smiled and said, "You have to learn from Aunt Wang in this regard, she is great."
Lin Yunyan rolled her eyes: "Send Su Ke off, let's go meet Yu Pu."
There is a poetry meeting in Nancheng today.
Chen Gui inquired and said that Yu Pu would attend.
When we arrived at the place, Grandma Hong got out of the car.
Chen Gui had arrived a long time ago and quietly pointed to her: "The one standing over there, wearing dark blue clothes."
Grandma Hong took a closer look and said, "Yes, he was the one who helped us that day without leaving his name."
"Just make sure," Chen Gui said, "Mom, tell the princess, everything will be done."
The poetry session continued into the afternoon.
Chen Gui came forward and saluted happily with all the students.
Someone asked: "The boss is here to make Shenghui Pavilion famous again?"
"We're about to open the door to welcome guests," Chen Gui said with a smile, "I'll make a good connection and you'll come to visit me more in the future."
The study room given by Chen Gui follows the path of the Poetry Society. It is practical for the students and not too expensive. It is a bonus during the competition. The students who stand out will not be burdened if they accept it.
And Chen Gui is a good talker. No matter who he makes friends with, he greets each other politely and thoughtfully when meeting.
"Brother Yu," Chen Gui said cheerfully, "can you lend me a moment to speak?"
Yu Pu agreed.
The two of them went to the private room upstairs.
Chen Gui got straight to the point: "I was on the mountain trail two days ago. Thank you for your help."
Yu Pu was stunned for a moment.
His impression of Chen Gui came from other students. He knew that Chen Dong's family wanted to do a study business, and he had been busy working on it recently.
As a result, he had put it in the back of his mind that he had vaguely heard that "Dong Chen's family is related to Uncle Chengyi's family."
Chen Dong's family was looking for him, but he still didn't doubt that he was there.
"This..." Yu Pu touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, "How could my boss know?"
Chen Guidao: "Brother was in a hurry that day and left a piece of paper behind. We found you from the handwriting."
When Yu Pu heard this, his face turned red: "I, I'm not..."
Seeing his reaction, Chen Gui couldn't help but laugh.
"I know that I helped people when they were in trouble. I didn't want anything in return, and I didn't want to be said, 'I made friends with powerful people before entering the examination room, so I left in a hurry without leaving my name. "Chen Gui cupped his hands and said, "I have my own considerations. The uncle's house is the one who receives the favor, let alone make things difficult for the benefactor in the name of repaying the favor.
Therefore, I came forward on behalf of the government, privately thanked my brother for his kindness, presented me with some paper and pen, and hoped that he would not refuse. "
