Chapter 373 The most powerful counterattack
Ye Jiayao and Xia Chunyu followed You Shi back to the Marquis' Mansion silently. After entering the door, Xia Chunyu said, "You go back first."
Ye Jiayao glanced at him suspiciously: "Why?"
This matter is 100% related to her, and it is not a good thing, but whether it is good or bad, she has the right to know. She hates being kept in the dark the most. Although she knows that Chun Yu is doing this for her own good, she is not a weak person. Well, she may look a little weak, but she thinks that her heart is still relatively strong. She has experienced life and death, so what else is there to be afraid of?
Xia Chunyu hesitated. He didn't want Yaoyao to be angry. It was not worth it to get sick from such a thing. They had finally had some peaceful days.
"Chun Yu, it's better to let her know." Yu said.
Xia Chunyu remained silent. Since his mother said so, what else could he say?
After entering the house, Grandma Sun served tea to everyone and then left, considerately closing the door. She said that in such matters, it would be less awkward if one person was less present.
There were only three people left in the room: mother, son and daughter-in-law.
You took a sip of tea to calm herself down before saying, "Since you all heard what happened just now, I think you have probably guessed it. It was the last time Jinxuan was kidnapped. Some people with ulterior motives took advantage of the incident to spread rumors and cause trouble, hoping to step on Jinxuan and destroy the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion."
Ye Jiayao's head buzzed, and then a surge of anger rolled up like magma gushing out from the ground.
Damn it, it's really about this, Lin, right? When one plan fails, another one comes up, each one is more clumsy and worse than the last.
No wonder Youshi was so angry. It doesn’t matter if it’s people from outside, but Zhou is still a member of the Xia family after all!
Seeing Ye Jiayao's face turn pale, You said, "You don't have to be angry. Those who should be punished have been punished. I believe that after today, no one will dare to gossip about you anymore."
When Youshi said this, there was still a hint of cruelty in her eyes. She rarely lost her temper, but that didn't mean she was weak and could be bullied. The reputation of the Marquis's Mansion was even more inviolable. Whoever came to offend, she was not afraid to fight to the death.
Ye Jiayao wanted to say: She should personally handle this matter and severely punish those shameless bitches.
He glared at Xia Chunyu again and said, "It seems like you knew it early but didn't tell me. No wonder everyone looked at her strangely and worriedly when she went out recently. Are you afraid that she can't bear it?"
Youshi said, "I don't think Zhou is so easy to get rid of. She will definitely come over and cry later. Jinxuan, don't worry about it. Stay in your room. I will handle this matter. Chunyu, you stay. I have something to tell you."
This meant that Ye Jiayao was asked to leave. Although Ye Jiayao was very curious about what Youshi wanted to say to Chunyu, she still knelt down and bowed, and then left.
He did not return to the courtyard, but waited for Chunyu in the yard outside.
She was furious just now, but now she has calmed down and thought about it carefully. It would be most appropriate for Youshi to come forward in this matter. It is legitimate and justified. It would be somewhat embarrassing for her to come forward herself. Even Chunyu would not be able to come forward because people would say that Chunyu was afraid that others would say that he was cuckolded.
Lin was divorced, which surprised Ye Jiayao a little. Didn't Prince Yu love Lin very much? They were childhood sweethearts, and they had a deep affection for each other, but he divorced her just because she was a gossip. Or was Prince Yu too cruel and cold-blooded? In his heart, ambition and hegemony were the most important. He would abandon and eliminate anyone and anything that hindered his progress without hesitation.
Of course, she was not sympathizing with the Lin family. She would not be merciful to her enemies either. She would have to bear the consequences of her actions.
As for Zhou, she would have even less sympathy for her, as she would suffer the consequences of her own actions.
Yu Shi’s scolding was great. She lived in the mansion of the Marquis, worshipped the ancestors of the Marquis, and took benefits from the Marquis, but did things that were unfair to the Marquis. It would be enough if she was divorced ten thousand times.
Forget it, since Youshi can handle it, she will just hide behind and be a victim, a weakling!
As soon as Ye Jiayao left, Youshi said to Chunyu, "Have you heard about this a long time ago?"
Xia Chunyu nodded: "I heard about it."
You Shi scolded, "You heard about it, why didn't you tell me and let them slander you at will?"
Xia Chunyu said: "My son believes that those who are innocent will be innocent, and this rumor is quite difficult to investigate. Are you going to fight with them? Just ignore them."
You said angrily, "Ignore it? How can I ignore it? Three people can make a tiger, and many mouths can melt gold. You have always had a bad temper, but you can be patient now."
Xia Chunyu flattered, "Son, you couldn't find a chance to punish them, but mom is really good and solved the problem in no time."
There was some flattery in these words, but they were also what he really thought. He had not expected his mother to be so swift and decisive this time. He had investigated and asked who had told him the story, but the people he had contacted were all people who valued friendship and loyalty. It was already very difficult for him to hear the story, so he would never tell anyone else. To him, this was simply a headless case.
Flattery never wears out, and Youshi, who had been gloomy for most of the day, finally felt relieved. She sighed, "It's really not your fault. Women's affairs should be resolved with women's methods."
"By the way, you and Chunfeng have been close since childhood, and you two brothers can talk about anything. Do you know what Chunfeng is thinking about Liuli now?"
Chunyu hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "Why? Is this matter related to Liuli?"
Yu Shi did not give a direct answer, but sighed heavily.
Xia Chunyu frowned, as expected, Liuli and Lin were birds of a feather. "Chunfeng didn't say anything, but I could see that he was very unhappy." When talking about Chunfeng, Chunyu's mood was very complicated, with guilt, heartache, and helplessness. Although Liuli was mainly responsible for the situation between Chunfeng and Liuli, it was him who caused it.
Youshi sighed, "Find a chance to ask him. This can't go on. I don't want my son to suffer for the rest of his life."
Xia Chunyu looked at his mother in surprise. Did his mother intend to help Chunfeng dissolve this marriage?
Come to think of it, everything that happened in the past was because of the Queen Mother. Now that the Queen Mother is gone, Liuli's greatest backer has fallen. The Emperor and the Queen will not blindly protect Liuli.
If Liuli is so unrepentant and is doing this to her own death, then just divorce her. You can't let Chunfeng be ruined in this marriage in vain.
Thinking of this, Xia Chunyu's breathing became smoother. "Yes, my son will ask him carefully."
Coming out of You's house, Xia Chunyu saw Ye Jiayao waiting in the cold wind, and couldn't help but frowned: "Why are you standing in the wind?"
I took her little hand, which was as cold as ice chips, and rubbed it.
Ye Jiayao asked: "What did mother tell you?"
Xia Chunyu wrinkled his nose and said angrily, "Just scold me, saying that I'm useless and can't even protect my own wife."
Ye Jiayao said with a smile: "Just lie to me!"
Xia Chunyu said seriously: "I'm not lying to you. I have heard those rumors, but I don't know where to start. I think my actual actions are the most powerful response to those rumors."
Ye Jiayao stared at him infatuatedly. His clear eyes were gentle, vast and deep. No wonder he accompanied her every time she went out recently, taking care of her in every possible way. It turned out that there was such a purpose behind it.
Yes, the mouth is on someone else's face, what does it matter if others say something? As long as he believes her, it's fine. Those who spread rumors just want her to be despised by her husband's family, right? In the end, she was kicked out, so he fought back with double the love. Although this method is slow to take effect, it will make those evildoers even more suffocated.
"I'm freezing to death, let's go back quickly!" Ye Jiayao decided not to dwell on this matter anymore. She would just pretend that she knew nothing and live her life as usual.
Xia Chunyu complained distressedly: "You just got better, and the doctor told you to keep warm, but you just don't take care of yourself..."
"Oh, you are so long-winded, even more long-winded than the doctor."
"I want you to give me a son soon, so of course I have to nag." Xia Chunyu muttered, but the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up a little. Doctor Jiang said that the poison in Yaoyao's body has been eliminated, and as long as she takes good care of herself, there will be no problem with pregnancy. So, this topic is no longer a taboo topic.
Ye Jiayao raised her eyes and glared at him: "What if you can't give birth to a son?"
Xia Chunyu said casually: "Then just keep giving birth!"
Ye Jiayao got angry and twisted his arm hard: "Do you think I'm a sow that keeps giving birth?"
Through the thick cotton coat, her little strength, even if she tried harder, at most she would be bitten by a mosquito. However, Xia Chunyu cried out in pain exaggeratedly: "You murdered your husband!"
Ye Jiayao knew he was pretending, so she raised her chin and threatened, "Do you want to do it again?"
Xia Chunyu smiled and said, "To die under the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost. Come on, come as you please. I will never resist and let you trample and ravage me."
You are such a jerk. Your smile is so evil that it is obvious that your thoughts are not pure. Humph! I won't fall for your trick.
Here, it's like mixing oil with honey, while Zhou's is like frying in a frying pan.
She sent Chunwen to invite the master, and cried herself to death in the room. Yulian was anxious and advised: "Mother, you should go and apologize to your aunt now. Talk to your aunt and have a good talk with her. As long as your aunt doesn't pursue the matter, there is still room for this matter to turn around."
Zhou cried, "It's not that easy. She has disliked me for a long time and has always wanted to kick me out of the house. Now she has caught me and the queen is backing her up. She will definitely torture me to death."
Yulian was furious. She hadn't married yet. If her mother was kicked out of the house because of this incident, would she still be able to find a good husband? Which family would want her?
"Or, go ask the second cousin's wife for help?"
"Bah, she's even harder to talk to than your aunt. What's more, I have offended her this time. She must hate me to death." The more Zhou thought about it, the more scared she became. No matter how she thought about it, it was a dead end.
Now she really regretted it. She was blinded by greed. Once Liuli encouraged her, Prince Yu's concubine bribed her and repeatedly assured her that nothing would happen, she really believed it. What was the result? They all fell, so who would care about her?
