Chapter 133: Severe
The Marquis of Zhenyuan didn't seem to see her panic, sitting on the Luohan bed with his eyes empty, and he looked like he was reminiscing about the past.
"You all think that I love Mengbao and don't pay attention to Wan'er, they are obviously my daughters, but I never get close to Wan'er, I only laugh with Mengbao, and I only care about Mengbao every time I come back. Although you don't say it, you actually have a lot of complaints in your hearts, right? ”
There was even a smile on his lips when he said this, but the smile was full of mockery.
The person who was already paralyzed on the ground couldn't answer at all, and he didn't seem to want her answer, so he continued to himself: "But when you complained about me in your hearts, did you think about how you treated Mengbao? You said that Wan'er and Mengbao are your heart's meat, but who is your heart's meat, don't you know yourself? ”
"If you are truly kind to Mengbao, you will not condone Wan'er to take away the things that belong to Mengbao again and again. If you really regard them as your own daughters, you wouldn't have been moved by the same mind after hearing your mother say that your daughter-in-law could marry into the Dingnan Hou Mansion, and connived at Wan'er to repeatedly design and frame Mengbao. ”
"Mengbao is Wan'er's sister, and she is a serious concubine from the original match, as long as Mengbao is still there, there is no reason to let Wan'er fulfill the marriage contract instead of her sister. You clearly understand in your heart, but you still chose Wan'er between the two of them, hoping to let Wan'er marry her, this is what you call treating it as your own and treating everyone equally? ”
Lying on the ground, Su Zhoushi finally raised his head and glanced at him when he heard this, his eyes full of resentment and grievance.
"Yes. I didn't treat Mengbao as my own, and I didn't treat her and Wan'er equally. But what about you, Master Hou? Mengbao and I are separated by a belly, and it may be understandable that I treat her as well as Wan'er. ”
"But Wan'er is really your flesh and blood like Mengbao! Why do you treat the two of them so differently? You can't treat your own flesh and blood equally, so why do you ask me, a stepmother, to treat her like a daughter! ”
"If it weren't for your blind favoritism and pampering Mengbao, how could I have connived at Wan'er to compete for her things! If you can treat Wan'er like you are to Mengbao, how can things become like this! ”
Zhenyuanhou listened to her unwilling rebuttal, and the smile on his lips was even worse, as if he had heard some big joke.
"Mengbao was born to me and my original wife Ye, I have a love with Ye, and you were originally just a concubine. It's still a concubine who someone else forced me to take in in desperation! Is there anything wrong with me treating Ye's children better than yours? ”
"Don't forget. If it weren't for the Ye family insisting that I go to your room, there would be no Su Mengwan in this world at all, and my daughter would only have one Mengbao! ”
"When you entered the mansion back then, you kept saying that since you had entered my Zhenyuanhou Mansion as a concubine, you would recognize the reality and no longer do those fearless delusions. Is this just lip service? ”
"You ask me to be as good as you are to Mengbao. I think I should treat them the same. Could it be because you feel that you yourself should be on an equal footing with the Ye family, or even take your place, so it is so natural? ”
"That's what I said. When Ye's dystocia and her eventual death occurred, can I also suspect that it has something to do with you? Is it because you covet her position as the lady of the main room, so you have the intention to cause harm? ”
Su Zhoushi was suddenly horrified, and shouted hoarsely: "I didn't, I didn't!" ”
Marquis Zhenyuan sneered: "Of course you don't, otherwise you wouldn't have lived until now." ”
This sentence was like a basin of cold water splashed on Su Zhou's body, making her feel even colder.
The man's words did not stop because of her horror, and were as calm as water throughout, but they were clearly full of mockery and contempt.
"Although I don't value Wan'er as much as Mengbao, I haven't treated her harshly over the years, and you know this very well. As for why I treat Mengbao so much better than her, in addition to what I just said, it is also because of the attitude of you, your mother, and other people in the house. ”
"When the Ye family was still there, you treated Mengbao well so that I could treat you and Wan'er better, so that I wouldn't dislike you. After the Ye family went, you bothered to plan for me to straighten you up, for the sake of the future of you and Wan'er, I am afraid that your life will be difficult after the new lady enters the mansion. ”
"So, all the time you are not for Mengbao, but for yourself. Mengbao is at best just a valuable chess piece in your eyes, what you said is for her good, worried that the stepmother has wronged her without a form, in fact, it is just a rhetoric to cover up your true purpose. ”
"But what you said I do have some worries, even if I love Mengbao, but if I marry a new lady into the house, it is impossible not to give a child to the new lady for Mengbao, and once the new lady has her own child, Mengbao's status in her heart may not be as good as the status in your eyes."
"You won't dare to treat Mengbao too harshly because she is still valuable, even if it is to maintain a virtuous and virtuous appearance in front of me, you will not hurt Mengbao ruthlessly, but will make a good wife and mother. But once the new lady enters the mansion, I don't know her, she doesn't know me, and I can't watch her in the mansion for a long time, if she really hurts Mengbao behind her back, even if I rush back from office, I'm afraid it's too late, which is also the real reason why I promised to straighten you right. I made this decision after careful weighing between you and the new lady. ”
"And you and your mother originally favored Wan'er, and they doted on her when she was a concubine, and in the blink of an eye you became the main lady of the house, and she also became a concubine, you are bound to treat her better."
"But Mengbao has no biological mother since then, although she doesn't say it, but her heart must be sad and scared, if I don't treat her better, she will be worried and scared all day long."
"Wan'er already has the favor of you, her mother and everyone in the house, but Mengbao is only me, except for me, no one cares about her, and no one really cares about her."
"Think about it yourself, if I really treat Mengbao and Wan'er equally after I straighten you out. Put Wan'er in the palm of your hand and hold it, do you still think Mengbao is useful? Will you still value her for the sake of you and Wan'er? ”
Su Zhou's lips twitched, wanting to defend himself, but he felt that every argument in front of this man was so weak and useless.
Marquis Zhenyuan didn't wait for her to answer before affirming: "You won't, you must feel that since I also love Wan'er equally, then Mengbao is useless, and this useless person in your eyes still occupies the position of the daughter of his wife, sharing my favor, sharing the favor that could have belonged to Wan'er alone." ”
"When the time comes, you'll see Mengbao more and more unpleasant. Hate can't be eliminated quickly. In this way, there is no one in the house who can compare with Wan'er, and with any good things and good family affairs, you can arrange it directly to Wan'er justifiably, without worrying about having a sister in front of her. ”
"So you see. You said that it was because I treated Wan'er unfairly that I was so indignant. There's nothing unfair about that. Opposite. On the contrary, I have been too kind to you and tolerant of you, which is why I have such a thing today. ”
"What you did to Mengbao before. Blindly coaxing her and spoiling her, I know all this. I just don't think there's anything wrong with that, even if I'm in the house, I'll spoil her like this and hold her. Because I know that sooner or later she will marry into the Dingnan Hou Mansion, and she is the young lady of the Dingnan Hou Mansion. ”
"In front of Old Madam Shen, no amount of thought and means are enough, so even if she learns those, it is useless, it is better to simply be a young lady with a pure mind, but it is more pleasing to the old man. And according to the origin of the Dingnan Hou Mansion and the Yuanhou Mansion in my town, coupled with Ah Zhu's gentle temperament, as long as Mengbao marries in, she can sit back and relax, and she doesn't have to worry about anything, if she wants to be the master of the house, naturally someone is willing to take her as the master of the house, if she just wants to raise flowers and plants and visit the garden, naturally there are others to take care of other things for her. ”
"I never expected Meng Bao to be the eldest lady in charge of the inner house of Dingnanhou Mansion, as long as she can live this life happily and happily, it is enough, and Dingnanhou Mansion can definitely guarantee her this kind of life, so I was not worried about you spoiling her at all, not to mention that you couldn't spoil her, although she is occasionally arrogant, but in the end she is still kind-hearted and takes care of the overall situation, and she is my Su Jiansheng's good daughter."
"The only thing I didn't expect was that my mother actually remembered the marriage contract wrongly and told you about it, which caused you to have such a whimsical idea, and actually let Mengbao get acquainted with Chen Er......"
When the man said this, he gradually revealed the anger in his eyes, and there seemed to be a deep pool of water hidden in his eyes, ready to sweep and swallow Su Zhou's at any time.
"Every time they meet Chen Er, almost Wan'er mentions it, I thought Wan'er fell in love with Chen Er, but I didn't want to...... It turned out to be for Mengbao. You're really ...... What a plan! ”
Su Zhou undoubtedly felt his anger, and lay on the ground trembling.
All these years of caution, all these years of step-by-step planning, turned out to be nothing more than a self-righteous drama in front of this man.
The other party smiled and admired their serious and hard-working performance in the audience, but they thought that they had deceived him perfectly, thinking that he was really at a loss.
And the only time he was hidden from him was an accident by Mrs. Su who misremembered the marriage contract, which not only failed to bring them the slightest benefit, but now also aroused the man's monstrous anger, making him hate to cramp and bone.
"No matter how willing the Dingnan Hou Mansion is to tolerate Mengbao, she can't stand herself from locking herself in the courtyard all day long, abandoning herself and being depressed, if she hadn't repented in time later, I'm afraid that she would have killed herself by now!"
The man gritted his teeth in the last few words, and Su Zhoushi was so frightened that he didn't dare to argue again.
Zhenyuanhou picked up the teacup on the table, took a few sips to moisten his throat, calmed down his feelings, and then spoke again.
"I'm talking to you so much today, I want to tell you clearly, the little bit of husband and wife relationship between you and me is over at this moment, you don't have to feel unwilling, and you don't have to feel that there is anyone in my Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion who can't stand you, because this qiē is all your own fault, and it has nothing to do with others, let alone Mengbao."
"But after all, this town's Yuanhou Mansion still needs a titular Mrs. Hou, so I won't divorce my wife, and you are still my Su Jiansheng's stepfamily. It's just that when I return home, I will live in the study in the outer courtyard, and this courtyard will be yours alone from now on, and I will not step into it again. ”
"In a few days, I will bring in a concubine's room, you prepare well, everything that should be prepared is ready, don't let people slack off."
"As for the people in the house, I will tell them clearly later, no matter when Mengbao wants to go back to his mother's house in the future, if anyone dares to stop him, he will die."
After he finished speaking, he got up and walked out, took a few steps and remembered something, turned around and said: "By the way, last time I helped you stop Mengbao's subordinates in front of the door, you can draw up a list and hand it to Steward Qin later, so that I don't have to check them one by one." ”
The meaning behind such a few words is very clear, these people will definitely not survive tonight.
He made such a fanfare to support Su Mengbao, and at this time he accepted a concubine into the mansion, which is tantamount to suing all the subordinates in the mansion, from now on, she Su Zhou will just be a listed lady, and she will not be treated badly in all aspects of food and clothing, but her rights will no longer be the same as in the past.
And the concubine room is different from the lady of the main room, even if the Marquis of Zhenyuan doesn't give the other party's child, it doesn't matter, as long as she can live a stable life in the inner house, so this person will naturally not try his best to embarrass the aunt who has already married. On the contrary, when she knew that the Marquis of Zhenyuan valued this aunt, she would try her best to please her.
As for her Su Zhou, don't say that she wants to do something to Su Mengbao in the future, even if she wants to make things difficult, it will not be easy for the concubine.
Even if she suppressed the next one, she believed that the Marquis of Zhenyuan would immediately admit another one! Until she has no strength to toss!
She now knows how smooth her previous life was, and how tolerant the Marquis of Zhenyuan was to her.
If it weren't for embarrassing Su Mengbao, she could have been going on like this all the time......
But at this point, she knew that no matter what she said, it was useless, and she really had no status in the eyes of Zhenyuan Marquis.
She cried and knelt down a few steps to grab the hem of the clothes of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, who was about to leave, and choked up: "Master Hou, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and the concubine is willing to be punished." But Wan'er is also your daughter after all, even if she does something wrong, she is still your daughter...... Please, please, take her back, her leg was personally trampled off by Old Madam Shen, the concubine really doesn't know what will happen if she stays there, please take her back......"
Marquis Zhenyuan was not moved by this at all, but his eyes were even colder because of her words.
"Zhou Qinglian, never think that I can't be ruthless. Wan'er is indeed my daughter, yes, but between her and Mengbao, I will definitely choose Mengbao without hesitation. If she hurts Mengbao, I will definitely take revenge on Mengbao without hesitation. ”
"You should be glad that I wasn't there when Wan'er did those things, and you should be glad that when I went to Dingnanhou Mansion today, I met the old lady before I went to see her, otherwise she must not have broken a leg, I will definitely kill her with my own hands."
With your own hands, beat her to death.
