The little girl hated Wei An so much that she gnashed her teeth. She wished she could throw Wei An to the ground and eat him alive. This seemingly stupid and stubborn Princess Shouning was so picky!
She wasn't sick at all, she just deliberately sent me away to get the medicine.
What's hateful is that she could act so realistically. The panic on her face, the cold sweat on her forehead... they were all lies!
This woman is so scheming!
She knelt on the ground, her body trembling, and kowtowed in panic: "Old lady, Madam, I really don't know what the princess means. The princess just told me that she wants me to take her to..."
She knew that if she wanted to have a chance of survival, she had to hold Wei An to death and must not bring anyone from the Xu family out.
Madam Xu looked at Wei An with dissatisfaction and could not help but sneer: "It's really strange. The princess is not sick but she claims to be sick, and she has to order people to go to our place to get medicine. Your family members are also making a fuss to ask us to come over. What on earth are you planning?"
As she spoke, she no longer cared about the fact that she had not yet torn her face with the Wei family, and she said directly: "You blame the host for coming here. It turns out that this is the rule for the Wei family to go out as a guest. This is how you treat your host! If we had known that the princess was such a tactless person, we really would not have dared to invite anyone here!"
It’s not too late now, everything is still in time, and Wei An cannot be asked to say more.
She took a deep breath, and before anyone could speak, she scolded the little girl: "You are ignorant yourself. The county lord is so immoral, you should come and tell us why we let the monarch act like that? Now something has happened at home, and everyone is panicking. If something goes wrong, who can take the responsibility?!"
The disdain and sarcasm on her face could no longer be concealed. All the ladies were stunned by her unconcealed attitude for a moment. They didn't know why she suddenly became so angry.
We are not stupid. Wei An said he was sick for no apparent reason and asked someone to come and get medicine. Then he waited by the bridge for no reason after getting the medicine. There must be some reason for this.
Seeing Madam Xu so excited and the Wei family members also having stern faces, they were even more certain that it was something embarrassing for the two families. They couldn't help but feel a little at a loss, not knowing what to do.
But it would definitely not be wrong to retreat early.
They were all here as guests, and it would be scary enough if they ran into thieves or bandits who took advantage of others' situation. No one wanted to get involved in other matters and become a witness and victim of the fight between the two families.
Madam Qin was the first to cough and said, "Old lady, Madam, all the ladies of the Wei family, Shuang'er and that troublesome girl in my family are still waiting for me. I am worried about them, so I will take my leave first."
Everyone followed suit and wanted to leave.
Madam Xu breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if everyone left. No matter how many unpleasant and inappropriate words were said, only they and the Wei family would know.
The people of the Wei family are nothing to worry about anyway. When the previous things are over, the Wei family will be finished too. She is not afraid of the people of the Wei family knowing anything.
Old Madam Xu also smiled, without any sign of impatience or wrongdoing. She nodded slowly towards Madam Qin and said kindly, "In that case, I'll have someone send you over right away. We really didn't entertain you well this time. We didn't expect the princess to cause such a thing. It's because we didn't entertain you well... We'll apologize to you next time."
Madam Qin hurriedly shook her head, wishing she could leave quickly. Even though she knew that the situation at the Xu family was not right, she still didn't want to delve into it too deeply.
She has already found a way to make Mrs. Wei's plan to come and see Wei An possible, and what happens afterwards is not something she can control.
Madam Wei Er was very unwilling and could not help but sneered: "Isn't that strange, Madam? No one would beg to come and be your guest. If your family hadn't sent so many invitations and insisted on inviting people, our princess would have been at home preparing for her wedding. Could it be that she would come on her own? Now that she has come to your house, you have caused so many troubles and played tricks, and now you want to turn the tables and blame us?!"
Madam Xu was disgusted with them and didn't even bother to hide it. She immediately turned around and looked at her: "Second Madam, be careful with your words! Since you don't want to come, did someone tie you up with ropes and bring you here? Since you want to come here, you want to cause so much trouble. We..."
Wei An was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, and she didn't want Madam Qin and the other noble ladies who could be witnesses to leave immediately. She glanced at Madam Xu, pushed the little girl in the hands of the Second Madam to the center of the crowd, raised her eyebrows and asked calmly: "What is the reason and whose fault it is? We will know soon. There is no point in making a fuss here, don't you think?"
As she spoke, she stepped forward and looked at the little girl for a while, then suddenly asked Madam Qin, "Madam Qin, do you know where to go if we walk east from here and cross the path?"
Mrs. Qin looked in the direction of her finger, feeling a little confused and hesitant. She had come from that side, so of course she knew where that was.
But Wei An asked this...
After hesitating for a while, she still told the truth: "That seems to be the hanging flower gate. After that, it is the outer courtyard."
Wei An said, lowered his head and looked at the little girl, smiling and said, "I really don't know why. This little girl just wanted to drag me there, and even made up a story, saying that Shen Chen asked her to report it."
She looked at the little girl, then at Madam Xu, whose face was pale and almost uncontrollable, and her expression gradually turned cold: "I am also very puzzled. Madam, why don't you explain to me why this little girl dared to say that. She said she was Shen Chen's person, does Madam know?"
Madam Xu was furious. Without even thinking, she sneered, "What nonsense! I have no idea what you are talking about!"
Madam Wei Er frowned.
This little girl was obviously sent by the Xu family to lead Wei An to the outer courtyard. It was unknown what immoral things she was planning to do. But because she was from the Xu family, it was probably very difficult for her to tell the truth.
Madam Xu's ugly face was really disgusting. She bit her lip, glanced at the Fifth Madam and the Third Madam, and coughed softly: "An An... What exactly does this little girl want you to do? Is it... "
Could it really be Shen Chen's man? (To be continued)
