Chapter 39: Unreasonable Strike Back

palace wasn't a place anyone could just enter. But hearing you say this, relatives of others can go to the palace and broaden their horizons. Why can't I I've already arrived, and she still doesn't t...Ye Wenyan hadn't even reached the threshold before she heard the old lady's furious voice: "Mu Shi, whose daughter did you raise if you couldn't take care of her properly Did you actually hit her to death yourself Now that your daughter has done this kind of thing, what do you have to say" Mu Shi argued back with reason: "What did my daughter do She is a pure and innocent girl, she doesn't go out the front door or the back door. What on earth could she have done to make the old lady speak like this" Ye Wenyan thought this mother was truly remarkable, at least she wasn't the type who would only kneel on the ground crying and kowtowing along with everyone else. 。She also knew how to defend her daughter, even though the other side outnumbered them and her arguments were mostly useless. 。But this is a matter of attitude! If mothers don't stand up for themselves, won't outsiders be even more reckless in bullying them She thought about these things, took a step and walked over the threshold into the front hall. 。As soon as the elderly matriarch at the head of the table saw her, she felt a strange flutter in her heart. 。Now she had a conditioned reflex to Ye Wen's nighttime words, even if he hadn't said anything yet, even if she thought she was right about this matter at the moment, her heart still pounded in fear. 。Ye Wen's mood tonight wasn't good. Especially when she held her hands together in front of her, her right hand shielding her left wrist and unable to reach the silver bell, her mood worsened even further. 。"Sister, why are you kneeling" The first sentence directly hit the key point. 。"Mu shi pulled her, saying, "Didn't I tell you not to come yesterday Why are you here again"She grinned, her voice loud and clear, "I was bored anyway. Besides, every time I see them, it's never me who gets angry. Why shouldn't I come" And then, finally remembering the purpose..." 。The granddaughter paid respects to her grandmother and also to her aunt. 。"

The old madam didn't respond. Xiao replied, "The fourth young lady is here" 。The following people in back, Liu and Ye Chulian hurriedly stood up as well. Ye Chulian called out, “Fourth sister good” 。" My humble self would like to inquire about the well-being of Sister Four." 。“ There was a constant flow of people in and out of the room, but that night, he only gave her a cold, piercing look as a greeting. ” 。Ye Wen also ignored her, nodding towards Ye Chulian and Liu's mother, "Fifth Sister, Mother Liu," 。Then, he reached out and grabbed Ye Qingmei's arm. "Sister, wake up" 。“Bold!” the old matriarch slammed her fist on the table, “Ye Wenyan, this is Fulu Courtyard, when did it become your turn to be in charge” She glanced at the old matriarch with a blank expression and said, “Granddaughter dares not take charge of Fulu Courtyard” 。But there has to be a reason for the punishment, maybe I arrived late and didn't hear the previous context. 。So, who here can tell me, what exactly did my big sister do wrong Rest assured, if she truly did something wrong, I will not shield her. 。If it's not a mistake, you can't just punish someone casually, right” Xiao coughed lightly and said, “What reason does the Fourth Miss want This is the residence of a first-rank general. The one who makes the decisions here is always the old mistress. Even your second uncle has to listen to the old mistress.” 。You are being disrespectful, repeatedly acting rudely in front of the old mistress. The old mistress has not held it against you, but you cannot push your luck too far. 。“ No, no, no. This isn't a matter of seniority. We need to talk about it logically.” 。I have always respected my grandmother, but while respecting the elderly, it is also important to love the young. 。My grandmother has repeatedly acted unjustly towards our family, even going so far as to harm me without restraint. For this reason, she is a relative with a history of wrongdoing in my eyes, and naturally, I cannot trust her. 。Who knows what kind of trouble this time will fall on my older sister's head, I can't just sit idly by without figuring out what's going on. 。"Grandmother, I didn't wrong you, did I" "Unfilial grandson!" The old madam gritted her teeth. 。"Disrespectful to elders!" Ye Wenyan immediately retaliated. 。“We all have our flaws, so let's not judge each other.” 。I don't want to cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it either. I want to protect this home because it was built by my grandfather and father with their sweat and blood. 。So you see, I love General's Mansion more than anyone else. Anyone who wants to harm General's Mansion will become my enemy!" The Lady Xiao was speechless, the Old Madam was still gritting her teeth 。

She asked again, "What has my elder sister done wrong"

The old lady gestured to the nanny beside her, and the nanny said loudly: "This morning, a painting album was found in the room where Big Sister Ye Qingmei used to live! It's Yangchun Tu! A unmarried girl like Big Sister having such indecent things in her house is really a shame to the reputation of General Fu's mansion."

So the old matriarch ordered her to kneel and await her fate. 。Jun Tao passed over the Yangchun Tu painting, “Please have a look, Fourth Sister.” 。" He flipped through it casually, "Well, indeed it is the Yangchun Tu. " 。Mu was so angry that her body trembled: “This booklet belonged to her and my father. Qingmei already had an arranged marriage. If there wasn't this funeral, she would have been married in six months!” 。As a mother, I have the obligation to tell my daughter these things. It's something that every mother must do before her daughter gets married. What's wrong with us" Xiao shi continued, "Big sister-in-law, even if you want to pass on this experience, it's usually shown three months in advance. You're too anxious." 。" I was just keeping it at my place. I never even looked at it," Ye Qingmei cried, trying to defend herself. 。Father is gone, Mom was afraid she'd lose her mind while packing and throw things away, so she asked me to keep them first. 。 “ It was the night that had been silent all along who suddenly spoke up, "Big sister, you haven't seen it so you haven't seen it! Who would believe that Also, why did mother only give it to you and not me" "That's because your marriage hasn't been arranged yet, so naturally she couldn't give it to you." 。"That's not fair! We're twins, everything should be equal." 。"Mother wouldn't give it to you without giving it to me. Before, everything was always the same, one for each of us. How come she broke the rules this time I think that book might be from somewhere else you found, or... someone gave it to you Big sister, you couldn't possibly..."

"I didn't!" Ye Qingmei blushed and her eyes widened, "Lian Mian, don't talk nonsense! I didn't do anything, it was really given to me by Mother." 。“

Mu shi was also angered by this second daughter, walked over and was about to hit her, scaring Ye Lian Mian to quickly run to the old madam's side” 。The old matriarch reached out to protect her, and Ye Lianmian became even more pleased. 。Mu Shi's heart trembled, both feeling sorry for her eldest daughter and angry with her second daughter, while also worrying about her third daughter. 。The third daughter has always been strong-willed and fearless. She's not afraid of anything, so she was truly worried that Ye Wenyan would argue with the old lady, leading to an unpleasant ending. 。Just as Ye Wen was about to speak, Mu Shi reached out and stopped her, saying in a low voice, "Yan'er, don't make things worse." 。" Mother, this wasn't something we wanted to make a big deal out of. It's just that the other party is being relentless. 。Could it be that we just give up I know mother is worried about what, don't worry, after all these days needle against wheat awn, they have never taken advantage of us. 。"

Hearing her say this, Mu Shi also came together. " 。Yes, over the past few days, the third daughter's fighting ability seems to have improved. On several occasions, neither the old lady nor Xiao Shi got any good results from her. It seems that her worries were indeed excessive. 。So he no longer blocked her, stepped back half a step, and yielded the battlefield. 。Ye Wenyan looked at the old madam with cold eyes, "I've already understood the cause and effect of this matter. So, I would like to ask, how does Grandmother intend to deal with my elder sister" En The old madam was taken aback. How to deal with it Shouldn't she first prevaricate and then deny it This got to the point of dealing with it, could it be that this girl was planning to admit it This... wasn't something Ye Wenyan would do!In just a few days, the old madam had already repositioned this granddaughter. 。Once they were domineering and willful, now they are unreasonable and stubbornly insist on retaliation. 。No matter how she tries to position herself, she still has to fight with her granddaughter. 。She had to make it clear to everyone that this General's Mansion belonged to her. 。Her gaze turned to Granny Yuan again, and Granny Yuan immediately understood. She loudly declared, "Send her to the temple, for a period of three months!" Ye Wenyan nodded slightly, "What about after three months"Granny Yuan replied again, "After three months, bring her back, but she can only be a slave in the household." 。“Finally, he added, “This is the greatest gift I can give her. Otherwise, a wretch like her should have her cheeks tattooed and sent to the military camp!”Ye Qingmei trembled in fright. Ye Wenyan reached out and pressed his hand on her shoulder, gently squeezing it. 。At this moment, Ye Qingmei inexplicably felt at ease. 。Ye Wen said again, "Is that so Alright!" She turned to Xiangdong and instructed, "Go and call Xi Chun over, and bring all the maidservants from the courtyard. Also, include Dan'no from Mother's side, and Duan Zhu from elder sister's side." 。Go ask your elder brother to borrow a book again. 。"It's San Qi, right Yeah, call San Qi the servant boy too, more people are better. Let's all go to Wu Xuan and get San Jie for me, send her to a temple outside the city." 。"Alright, let's take a look at that Yuanmama. She gave an eerie smile and said, "Being pregnant before marriage is a much greater crime than my elder sister possessing a Yangchun Tu." 。Three months won't do, being reduced to a slave wouldn't be enough to showcase the dignity of our esteemed general's mansion. 。Sending someone to the military when they are already compromised is unwise. 。" At this point, she turned back to Mu and asked, "Mother, in our Northern Qi, how is a woman who commits such a crime punished" Mu finally smiled. She knew her daughter wouldn't make wild accusations without reason, wouldn't take on this crime for her sister out of the blue. 。So you were waiting here!

Mu spoke loudly, "Into the pigsty!"

"Mm," 。"Night Wen nodded, "Then it's settled." 。Xiang Dong, you still waiting for what Quickly bring people to Wu Xuan and grab San Jie for me to be thrown into the pig cage!"

Xiang Dong wasn't as mindless as Zhuai Er and obediently followed orders, but right now she knew this wasn't the time to hesitate. If she hesitated, the momentum that Da Fu Ren and Si Jie had just managed to build would collapse again>>> 。So, without a word, he pulled Dano and Duan Zhu along and turned to run. 。Xiao's face turned as white as a sheet, and she screamed at the top of her lungs, "No one is allowed to go! All of you, stand still!"ng yuàn," meaning peace and tranquility. 。The plaque for Anping Courtyard was hung quietly, without disturbing anyone. It was only when the plaque was being retrieved that Ye Xing gave it a glance. H...
