Ye Qingli said coldly: "If you want to marry into the Zeng family, you'd better shut up!"
She turned around and told her story from beginning to end.
Finally, he looked directly at Ye Chongtai: "Father, what do you think the truth should be?"
Ye Chongtai's face was ashen.
Although he guessed some of the truth, he didn't expect that what the mother and daughter did was actually so bad.
He looked at Guo coldly: "I need an explanation from you!"
Obviously, this was a substitute marriage planned by Ye Jinli.
Moreover, if it hadn't been for something going wrong during the wedding, Ye Jinli would have married into the Zeng family long ago. By then, it was a done deal and he would have to admit it.
If this spreads out, what will happen to the Ye family's reputation?
Maybe his position as the number one imperial businessman will be unstable!
Mrs. Guo was also a little flustered at this time. This was the first time in so many years that she had seen Ye Chongtai so angry.
She twisted the handkerchief in her hands, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Ye Yunxiao suddenly sobbed, stepped forward and knelt down and said: "My mother didn't know about this. If you want to blame me, it's my second sister and me. If there is any punishment, please ask my father to punish us two. It's just that Mom is really in trouble for this matter, so please father not to blame mom!"
She said with tears: "My mother has been honoring my grandmother, handling housework, and disciplining her children. She has been working hard every day, and her health has not been good. However, there are always people in the house making irresponsible remarks, saying something like a dove occupying a magpie's nest. My father. I don’t know, but my mother often wakes up in the middle of the night, and when she thinks of these words, she gets so upset that she cries until dawn.”
She quietly winked at Mrs. Guo, who understood at this time and knelt in front of Ye Zhongtai: "I also know that no matter how good I am, I will still be my step-wife and cannot be my first wife. This That's my life... It's just Jin'er. She has heard these words a lot, and she feels unhappy, so she just wants to help me..."
As she spoke, she secretly looked at Ye Zhongtai's expression. Seeing his anger fading away, she let out a sigh of relief, "What happened this time was done by her and a few of my slaves. It was also me these days. They were all busy praying for my mother’s condition, but they took advantage of her.”
She burst into tears: "It's all my fault that the eldest girl's marriage was ruined. I have to go under the knife and apologize to Sister Jiang again!"
After saying that, she pulled out the golden hairpin from her head and stabbed it towards her throat.
Ye Zhongtai was startled and quickly took the hairpin off, but he still scratched her neck and a trace of blood flowed down.
Ye Jinli threw herself on Guo's body and cried loudly. The hall was in chaos.
Ye Qingli just watched all this with cold eyes.
At this time, even she wanted to applaud Guo's performance.
It's so perfect!
Play hard to catch, show weakness to the enemy, use retreat as advance...
She successfully calmed down Ye Zhongtai's anger. Moreover, he really does this!
Just thinking about it, I realized that my previous mother had no such charming tricks in the inner house.
I was dumped ten times over!
