Madam Li looked unhappy, but even though she was angry, she knew that Master Li was not the kind of person who would speak without a purpose. Besides, there was really no need to lie about such a thing. Whether it was true or not would be known once she asked, so there was no need to lie.
She subconsciously lowered her head to look at Princess Yunzhang in her arms, but saw that her daughter had a pale face and pursed her lips without saying a word.
Her niece is more important than her mother, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Princess Mingchang's expression also turned serious. She turned around and asked Princess Yunzhang in a grim tone, "Jinniang, is this true?!"
Princess Yunzhang shrank in her mother's arms. When she met her grandmother's gaze, she bit her lip and then explained in a low voice, "Grandma, I just want to help. I thought Su Yao had a close relationship with Miss Mu San before. If she went out before the end of the year...if we can catch her red-handed..."
"What did you catch?!" Young Master Li folded his arms and sneered, "Li Jinniang, don't pretend to be ignorant. I have told you long ago that your hatred for Su Yao is your business, and I don't care. But don't ruin my business. But look at yourself, you are as stupid as a pig!"
Every word from Mr. Li Xiaojue was as sharp as a knife. He did not give Li Jinniang any face at all. Mrs. Li's face immediately turned pale.
Even if my daughter did something wrong, there are elders above her. How could it be her turn to be scolded like this by a cousin
On the other hand, Third Madam Kong's son was her own. Li Jinniang even implicated her own shop, which cost her a shopkeeper and a housekeeper. How could she bear it? She immediately opened her mouth with sarcasm: "Jinniang, you are really something. You are a girl who is about to get married, but why are you still so impetuous and do whatever you want? No matter what happens outside, there are men to take care of it. Do you think the family has to rely on an unmarried girl to support it? If you tell others about it, it will be ridiculous. People will think that all the men in our princess's mansion are dead!"
Kong's words were not pleasant to hear. Madam Li's face turned even purpler. She could no longer bear it and started arguing with Madam San: "Third sister-in-law, please be more careful with your words. The child is still young. You are so old, are you still arguing with a child?"
The quarrels among the family were so serious that it was a headache. Princess Mingchang became annoyed when she saw them arguing with each other. She stomped her cane hard, and the room finally became quiet.
"The whole family is in such a mess!" She cursed, and when everyone bowed their heads, she sent Mrs. Li and her sisters-in-law out first. After the three of them left, Princess Mingchang sat down at the top, her eyes swept over her grandchildren, and when she fell on her granddaughter, she frowned and asked her, "Jinniang, what's going on? What are you planning?"
Even if he wanted to find out the whereabouts of Miss Mu San, this reason was a bit lame.
What does this have to do with Princess Yunzhang
Half of Yunzhang County Lady's clothes were still wet, and her hair was dripping with water. After hearing Princess Mingchang's anger, she spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito after a while: "I just can't stand that girl from the Su family, and I want to teach her a lesson."
This sounds like the truth.
Princess Mingchang couldn't help but frown again: "She has nothing to do with you, why are you teaching her a lesson like this?"
Princess Yunzhang bit her lip and lowered her head: "She has never taken cousin Chun'an seriously, and she always pretends to be noble... This time I went to find her and asked her to tell me the whereabouts of Sister Li, but she pretended to be so, and I was so angry..."
"You are too foolish!" Princess Mingchang looked at her with a look of disappointment. "Look at all your tricks. They were discovered in just a few moves. If it weren't for your brother's quick grasp of the opportunity, what would you do if Butler Li gave you up?"
Thinking about it this way, it didn't seem so outrageous that Li Jiamin attacked the Yunzhang County magistrate in a rage.
Princess Yunzhang pursed her lips and sobbed softly in grievance.
Master Li looked at her with a sneer, feeling only irony in his heart.
Just because of a little bit of hatred, was it enough for Princess Yunzhang to seize the opportunity to attack Su Yao again and again
He knew in his heart that Princess Yunzhang was not telling the truth, but at this point, further questioning would not yield any results.
Besides, the important thing is not the reason, but that he wants Princess Mingchang to know that if something went wrong this time, it was not his fault, but the fault of County Princess Yunzhang.
Princess Mingchang really poked Lady Yunzhang's forehead hard, but since she was her beloved granddaughter, she hesitated again and again, only scolded Lady Yunzhang a few words, and ordered her to reflect on her mistakes in the room.
Then she led Master Li Xiaojue out, returned to the room and asked him, "Is there any news about Miss Mu San?"
"No." Young Master Li shook his head bluntly: "Even if the Su family really didn't know Sister Li's identity, after all this commotion, those cunning siblings might have noticed it. In this case, it will be even more difficult to find Miss Mu San through the Su family."
Princess Mingchang also knew this. She frowned and said, "The capital is so small. When she came back with the Xu family half a year ago, she couldn't even speak the official language of our Great Zhou. Even if more than half a year has passed, can she speak it fluently? If you want to investigate her, there are other ways. Finding out her whereabouts as soon as possible will also help your future. Don't let her fall into the hands of the Su family, otherwise the Su family will know her identity and I'm afraid they will cause trouble."
How can the Su family take away such benefits
Seeing Li Jiamin agreed, Princess Mingchang breathed a sigh of relief before admonishing: "Although Yunzhang was a little reckless this time, it is wrong for you to hit someone directly. How can you be violent to your sister? Think about it carefully when you go back. When you figure it out, go and apologize to your uncle and aunt."
Li Jiamin responded calmly, went out and stood at the gate of Princess Mingchang's courtyard, looking coldly at the garden outside, and sneered after a long time.
Princess Yunzhang did such a stupid thing. Even the dumbest person would know that Sister Li’s identity was not right. Where could he find someone
After dealing with the issue with Butler Li, Su Rong and Su Yao returned to the clinic first.
Doctor Shen wiped his hands and came out to greet them. He smiled a little when he saw them: "Don't worry, it's okay. The child is lucky and was saved."
The child's parents next to them finally burst into tears of joy and knelt down heavily in front of Dr. Shen.
Doctor Shen quickly reached out his hands to help them up. "It is a doctor's duty to save the dying and the wounded. You don't deserve to be thanked. But you have been worried and frightened for so long. Even a strong body can't stand it. Why don't you go and have a rest first?"
Su Yao also said softly: "Don't worry, there are people here to take care of the child. If you stay up all night like this, I'm afraid the child will be fine, but you won't be able to hold on. Go and rest first, and come back to see the child later."
