âYeah, yesterdayâs incident was too much of a blow to her.â Mrs. Ning handed Zhou Ying a cup of tea.
âThank you.â Zhou Ying nodded with a smile and took the teacup.
Mrs. Zhao sneered and said, âIsnât she just too ashamed to face others?
âThere were no outsiders here, so there was no need to hide it.
âTo be honest, if I were her, I would have killed myself from the shame. She would be in deep trouble from the mess Mrs. Cui left behind.â
âStop it.â Mrs. Ning glared at her.
âWhich part of it is wrong? Besides, Mrs. Cui harmed my unborn child, so itâs already good that Iâm not taking revenge.â
When Mrs. Ning heard this, she knew there was still resentment in Mrs. Zhaoâs heart. She did not try to persuade her but gave her a warning look. She then told Yang Wanning, âWanning, take care of your cousin-in-law. Iâm going to the front.â
As soon as she left, Yang Wanning offered, âCousin-in-law, Iâll bring you to a side room to rest.â
Zhou Ying nodded and followed her to the side room.
When Mrs. Zhao saw this, she also stood up. âSince even the person who should be here the most isnât even here, 1 canât be bothered to mourn for my enemy.â
After saying that, she stood up and left.
When Mrs. Zhang saw this, she got up and swept her eyes across the room. She laughed at the soft couch that the old madam often lay on and said, âMadam, you have schemed your entire life, but in the end, you have lost everyoneâs favor. Iâm curious if you regret it now.
âI think the Yang Residence is about to topple. I wouldnât mind watching to its very end.â
Zhou Ying, who was keeping tabs at the Yang Residence, was surprised when she heard Mrs. Zhangâs words. It seemed that she had a lot of grievances against the old madam.
She seemed to be someone who understood the situation they were in. Zhou Ying wondered what kind of story she had.
However, seeing that she was harmless, Zhou Ying had no intention of asking.
After confirming that no one else was in the courtyard, she asked Yang Wanning, âWhat do you plan to do next?â
âDo you think my father will chase us out of the house in anger if we donât attend Mrs. and Madam Cuiâs funeral?â
âYesterday, your cousin mentioned this to me.
âI think itâs better for you to send them off.
âNo matter how the Cui Family and their extended family treated you, Madam Cui is still your grandmother. It might look bad on you if you are adamant about cutting your relationship with them and refusing to send them off.
âMoreover, all the evil deeds were attributed to Mrs. Cui. Although Madam Cui treated you badly on the surface, she never harmed you, right?
âBesides, you guys already fought yesterday, but Yang Shicheng didnât make things difficult for you, right?â
âBut⦠I canât take this anymore.â
âA little forbearance will preserve the plan. If it really doesnât work, make a fuss about the dowry.
âIf he were to prepare a dowry for Yang Wanyu, it would be impossible for him not to touch your motherâs dowry.â
Yang Wanningâs eyes lit up. âYes, my motherâs dowry mustnât fall into the hands of the enemyâs daughter.â
âBut with such a big problem related to the Cui Family, will King Hui still marry Wanyu?â
âYou should know that your father is on King Huiâs side, right?â
Yang Wanyu paused when she heard that. Thatâs right. Based on the various signs in her previous life, her father should be one of the trusted aides of King Hui. Otherwise, he would not have been promoted so quickly.
He definitely had something on King Hui. Even if it wasnât fatal, it was still something major.
Therefore, as long as Yang Shicheng was still alive, Prince Hui would not give up on marrying Yang Wanyu unless it was absolutely necessary.
âCousin-in-law, why do you think King Hui didnât do anything when my father went to prison?â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âMaybe he doesnât dare to. I heard the Emperor is in charge of the Cui Familyâs affairs.
âAnother reason is that he might still be useful..â
