Chapter 365 Bullying? What a licking dog
Chapter 365 Bullying? What a licking dog
Just when Shen Wenting was anxious, Yao Qingnian accompanied Chen Shuhua and planned to go back to the Duke's Mansion. Firstly, they wanted to visit their grandparents, and secondly, Yao Qingnian wanted to inquire about Zhou Hao. He said in the dungeon that in addition to the account books that Shen Wenting had embezzled, he had other more important things, otherwise Shen Wenting would not have spent more than 20 years trying to get them.
On the way to the Duke's Mansion, they passed by a pastry shop. Chen Shuhua asked Yuzhu to buy some peach cakes that Old Madam Chen liked to eat. There were many people queuing in the shop and it would probably take a while, so she asked the coachman to park the carriage aside.
Yao Qingnian was bored, so he said something to Chen Shuhua, jumped off the carriage, and planned to walk around for a while. Unexpectedly, he met an acquaintance.
"Stop! You little bitch!" It was Pei Zongzheng from the Earl's Mansion.
"Is there something?" Yao Qingnian's cold voice sounded.
"I heard Youran's maid said that she was taken away by people from the Princess's Mansion. Did you do that? You have such a vicious heart. She is your sister. How could you do this to her?" Pei Zongzheng stood in front of her and asked, "I haven't settled the score with you for pushing me into the pond last time! Today, if you don't explain clearly, you can't leave."
"Master Pei, my sister was taken away to the Princess's Mansion to learn the rules. How did it become me who bullied her? Who told you that? Please call that person out to confront me face to face!"
"I think you just can't forget me, so you did something out of love and hate. I'm giving you a chance now. If you apologize to me sincerely, I can forgive you. When the matter between You Ran and I is settled, I can even consider taking you as my concubine."
"Did your brain get stuck in the mud last time? Didn't I make it clear enough? Who gave you the confidence to think that I'm interested in you? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Are you worthy enough? Get out of here!"
This Pei Zongzheng has been harassing me again and again in front of me, like a fly, causing me a headache.
"Miss Shen, you are too confident. My son is not worthy of you. Can a country girl like you find a general or a prince? Given your current situation, being my son's concubine would be a compliment to you."
Mrs. Pei came out of the snack shop and heard the conversation between the two. She was already feeling aggrieved about the last time the princess kicked her out in public and made Qian Huan kneel down to apologize to her. Now, when she heard Qian Huan say this about her son, she became furious and her previous image of a loving elder was completely gone.
"Mom, I told you that Shen Nianran is very scheming. You insisted that I find a way to marry her. Now you know it! No matter what, I will not marry her. I will only marry Youran. If we marry such a vicious woman, our family will not be able to live a peaceful life." Pei Zongzheng echoed.
"Mrs. Pei, who I marry is none of your business. Your son has repeatedly humiliated me, but you don't take good care of him. Instead, you blame me for everything?"
"Hmph! If it weren't for your mother's face and her background in the Duke's Mansion, do you think a country girl like you would have a chance to climb up to our Earl's Mansion?" Mrs. Pei saw that there was no one around, so she vented all her dissatisfaction with Chen Shuhua on Yao Qingnian without restraint.
"Why should I get close to you? Didn't you beg my mother to arrange this marriage for me?" Very good, I was just afraid that she would not reveal her true colors.
"I begged her? The marriage was proposed by your mother! She was just born in the Duke's Mansion, which is a little better than me. As for other things, I am better than your mother in every way. How can she compare to me? Your father was just a small official. Compared with the earl of my family, he was not even a little bit inferior. If it weren't for the Duke's Mansion, wouldn't you still be just lowly peasants from the countryside now?"
"Mrs. Pei, my mother and you have been good sisters for many years. Is this how you see her?" Yao Qingnian pretended to be surprised and sad.
"Good sisters? Haha! Your mother is stupid and rich, so I treat her as a sister, but I also like her because she is a young lady from the Duke's Mansion. Otherwise, who would care about her!" Mrs. Pei covered her mouth and laughed.
"Mrs. Pei, how can you say that about my mother? My mother has always treated you as a good sister. She has always thought of you for all the good things she has gotten over the years. Is this how you repay her?"
"It's also thanks to her for giving me so many good things over the years. Otherwise, how can a woman like me manage such a huge Earl's Mansion? Haha, that's because she's stupid. Who can I blame?!"
"You! Aren't you afraid that I will tell my mother about these things?" Yao Qingnian's mouth curled up in an imperceptible arc, but his face was full of anger and shame as he argued with her.
"Afraid? Why should I be afraid? Just say whatever you want to say. Without any evidence, how can Chen Shuhua believe you? Oh, you may not know that your mother and I have already agreed to marry you here. If you behave yourself, you can still have a good life here. Otherwise, your good life will be over."
"Mrs. Pei is so powerful! You're threatening me over something that hasn't even started yet?" Yao Qingnian smiled coldly.
"Threat? Then go ahead and try." Mrs. Pei had no idea what was going to happen. She was thinking, this was just a little girl, she didn't believe she couldn't deal with her.
"Just say it. I want to see whether my mother trusts you, an outsider, or me, her biological daughter. Also, I don't know whether my good days will end, but you guys in the Earl's Mansion! I'm afraid it won't be long!"
"Who are you trying to scare, little girl? Mother, she's sharp-tongued. Let's ignore her. Let's go! I'll teach her a lesson when I get the chance next time."
"Who are you going to teach a lesson to?" At this time, Chen Shuhua finally lifted the curtain of the carriage and walked down.
"Shuhua, why... are you here?" Mrs. Pei was so surprised when she saw Chen Shuhua that she was speechless. Why... why is she here? Didn't she hear everything she said just now?
"Please call me Mrs. Shen! Do you think you can just call me by my name?!" Chen Shuhua walked over slowly, her eyes cold, no longer as gentle and enthusiastic as before.
"Shuhua, please listen to my explanation!" Mrs. Pei felt a little regretful. Why did she want to show off her verbal skills for a moment? Besides, she almost forgot what she had just said. What should she do now?
"Hmm?" Her eyes shot straight over.
Mrs. Pei felt her whole body tremble, and hurriedly explained: "Mrs. Shen, please listen to my explanation. I was just listening to the two children talking, and I was angry for a moment, so I spoke without restraint. What I said was unintentional, please don't take it to heart."
