When the Xi Mansion heard that the State Duke Wei's body was fine, the happiest person was Xi Hongsheng. As long as the State Duke Wei was around, he would be able to use the State Duke Wei's name to his advantage, and he wished for nothing more than for the State Duke Wei to live for a hundred years.
The most unhappy person was First Madame. As long as he was here, she would not be able to hold Xi Jiu'er down ? In the past few days, there had been rumors that Xi Wanrong liked the Prince Xian, and he even undressed himself for the Prince Xian. This news came quickly and was impossible to guard against in First Madame and the others.
"Who spread it!" Her daughter was going to marry into the palace in the future. Her reputation was ruined, so why would His Majesty favor her? Xi Wanrong's eyes were already red. Who was it? Who else could make her suffer? Other than Xi Jiu'er, there was no one else.
"mother, it must be Xi Jiu'er who dares to do this. Only she doesn't want her daughter to have a good life. Her daughter hates her." It could be said that he hated her.
First Madame was suspicious: "Are you sure it's what Xi Jiu'er said?"
"I'm sure, mother, think about it. Those who know about this matter, you have already forgiven them and forbade them from spreading the news. Big Sister Feng will not harm me, I am her own sister!" Xi Wanrong analyzed for the First Madame: "The only one left is Xi Jiu'er, if the mother isn't talking about her, who else could it be?"
"Madame ? Ninth Miss has returned ? They went to the old Madame. " The servant outside reported.
"I understand. You can leave now." The First Madame turned to Xi Wanrong and said, "Don't cause trouble for the mother, I will help you settle your matters."
"mother, what don't you understand? Unless she is someone else?" Xi Wanrong said angrily.
"Child, you always need to talk about seeking evidence, if there is no evidence, you can just say that Xi Jiu'er is spreading the rumors, and the mother is the mistress of the Xi Family, you can't possibly punish someone without proof, right?" First Madame felt that one day at home was enough to annoy her. This little girl did not help him relax.
"But ?" Xi Wanrong was about to say something when he was interrupted by the First Madame, "Alright, you can leave for now. You're my biological daughter, don't tell me I'm going to harm you?"
Xi Wanrong knew he could not speak further, and unwillingly continued, "Alright ? That daughter will be leaving first! "
"Go." First Madame held her forehead and helplessly said. Mother Wang immediately walked over and pressed onto the flesh at her temple that was not light at all. First Madame comfortably closed his eyes and let out a long sigh: "This child is half as sensible as her elder sister."
"Hehe, this is where Miss Rong is truly cute ? Miss Rong is still young, we will know how thoughtful and considerate he is in the future. " After rubbing it for a while, Mother Wang seemed to have fallen asleep, but he heard First Madame say: "Do you think this matter is Xi Jiu'er's doing?"
"This... This old servant thinks not, don't you know about Ninth Miss? It's just that he had an irritable temper, but his brain wasn't that good to use ? That Medicine Madame is still worried? This old servant had people sneaking in some every day ? In less than a year or two ? " The Mother Wang spoke in a very low voice at the end.
"You already used it?" First Madame raised his eyebrows.
"Yes ?" Madame will not blame this old servant for taking the initiative to do so ? " Mother Wang immediately said: "This old servant was wrong, I ask Madame to punish me."
The First Madame smiled: What punishment do I not know about you? It was time to make a move ? This little girl you mentioned suddenly had a huge change in personality. Could it be related to that medicine? " She heard that people who used this pill had tempers that fluctuated between good and bad. Gradually, they began to go crazy!
"It might be possible, who could have changed so much all of a sudden? "I really can't think of any other reason." Mother Wang shook his head.
"Forget it, forget it ?" "We'll see when the time comes." First Madame replied in a slightly exhausted manner.
With a darkened face, Xi Wanrong became a rapist in the garden, treating the flower in his hand as if it were Xi Jiu'er's nemesis. When the servant, Si Ping, saw his master like this, he whispered: "Miss, why don't we go to the old Madame? When the old Madame loves you, he will definitely make the decision for you.
"That's right, Grandmother dotes on me the most, and he will definitely not let me suffer any grievances." With that, Xi Wanrong went to find the old Madame. Outside the hut, the voices of the old Madame and Xi Jiu'er could be heard. Xi Wanrong was immediately furious, he raised the curtain and rushed out.
"Miss Rong ?" The servant wanted to pull her away, but she had already walked into the room with her long skirt draped over her shoulders.
"Grandmother, you have to avenge your granddaughter, wuwu ?" Xi Wanrong had not even seen the situation clearly before he started complaining to the old Madame. Once he shouted, he started crying, which was hard for everyone to defend against, especially the old Madame, whose old face immediately flushed red.
"Shut up, look at yourself." The old Madame shouted.
Xi Wanrong cried: "Grandmother, it's Xi Jiu'er, Xi Jiu'er is spreading rumors and talking about me ? Tell Me... Undress Your Highness... Grandmother has to seek justice for her granddaughter, what else can we do about her reputation? " She was crying and acting coquettishly. The old Madame stared at Xi Wanrong with a green face, hoping that his granddaughter would not make a fool of herself at this time, so Xi Wanrong only thought that must have deceived him, if not why would he not love him?
"Elder Sister Rong, if you say such nonsense, you will use it to wrongly accuse me!" Xi Jiu'er said in an extremely aggrieved manner. However, she did not blink towards Xi Wanrong under her sleeves and revealed a naughty smile.
"You! "Who else could it be other than you ?" Xi Wanrong shouted in anger.
"Enough!" A short table beside the old Madame slammed down. "Enough with your nonsense."
"Grandmother ?" Xi Wanrong's tears were flowing down her face uncontrollably, as if they were beads with a broken string. Grandmother didn't like her anymore. A provocative gaze shot over, and Xi Wanrong threw a slap towards Xi Jiu'er without thinking too much.
Even though Xi Jiu'er was mentally prepared, he was still struck hard until his ears rang. His eyes blossomed and fell on the corner of the table beside him, on top of Old Zhang, Old Zhang's voice was loud and clear, "Miss, are you alright?"
Xi Wanrong's body trembled. Only now did she realise that there was an unfamiliar half elderly man standing beside Xi Jiu'er. She was startled: "Who is this?" In the next moment, he knew it. He could hear the voice that was filled with energy, as if it was going to penetrate the house. "Old Madame Xi, this is the precious treasure of our State Duke.
State Duke? Then did this person come from the State Duke Wei's residence? Xi Wanrong was not afraid to only say: "It's Xi Jiu'er's fault, she spread the rumors and slandered me."
"Nonsense!" Old Madame almost died of anger. Heavens, what kind of granddaughter was this! Mother Xi immediately went over and said: "Miss Rong, this old servant just remembered that you asked this old servant to buy it last time ?" As he said that, he dragged Xi Wanrong out, and could faintly hear Xi Wanrong's angry voice: "Let go, let go!" Old Madame Xi, your esteemed palace has truly broadened everyone's horizons ? Although it was true that her elder sister had taught her a lesson, it was also fine that she would accuse someone wrongly just like that. In my Miss, only the doors of the Duke's Palace do not open, and only accompany the State Duke throughout the entire day. Old Zhang said aggressively.
"Uncle Zhang, this is not something that can be blamed on the Elder Sister Rong, it's something that a woman would lose all reason for ? If it's Jiu Er, Jiu Er would do the same. " Xi Jiu'er immediately went forward to advise Old Zhang. Old Zhang only said, 'Miss, your heart is kind.' He didn't say anything else.
"Jiu Er is right, any woman that encounters such a thing would lose all reason ? Jiu Er, the Grandmother will make the decision for you now. Men, kneel the Miss Rong down in the Ancestral Hall, you are not allowed to get up without my orders. " The old Madame ordered.
"Miss, you're bleeding ?" Old Zhang shouted.
"Is that so?" Xi Jiu'er was indeed bleeding ? "Hiss ?" He probably hit the corner of the table just now, causing him to bleed.
When Old Madame saw that he had sent for a doctor, he was flustered for a bit before he angrily said, "Miss, follow this old servant back to the Duke's Palace."
"Haha, Uncle Zhang, you misunderstand. All of this was just an accident, Elder Sister Rong is not like this normally!" If it was in the past, she would definitely ask Uncle Zhang to avenge her, but now, she knew how to protect her own family, and was very sensible.
"Miss... "You ?" Elder Zhang was upset, but he didn't know what to say. He went back after lunch. The old Madame said in relief, "Jiu Er is sensible now ?"
Xi Jiu'er cutely smiled, "In the past, it was Jiu Er who was insensible. The reason that the old Madame was so happy was not just because of that, the things that the State Duke Wei gave her this time were not good. She was so happy that she blossomed, and she knew what the State Duke Wei meant.
After hearing what had happened, the first lady couldn't bear to teach Wan Rong a hard lesson. She herself wasn't a stupid person, so why was Wan Rong as stupid as a pig?" He ignored his own words. After being angry for a long time, she still felt sorry for her daughter, so she went to the ancestral hall to look for Xi WanRong.
"mother ?" Xi Wanrong said pitifully: "mother, your daughter doesn't want to kneel anymore. Her knees are hurting."
"You have to kneel even if it hurts, who told you not to remember. I told you to be good and not listen to me and go find your Grandmother. "If you still haven't figured it out, you're just spouting nonsense. Everything has to be proven. No matter how good your words are, they have no basis in your words. Who would believe you?" The First Madame seized this opportunity to properly educate Xi Wanrong, hoping to learn from this lesson.
"Yes, your daughter knows she's wrong. Your daughter won't be so reckless in the future ?" Although Xi Wanrong said it obediently, she was actually laughing in her heart. This time she miscalculated, next time Xi Jiu'er wouldn't have such good luck.
"Kneel for a while, you will have to wait for your Grandmother to calm down." The First Madame's heart ached, but it was useless. He could only comfort her with a few words before leaving.
