Chapter 961: I can't accept it
I don't know if it's because someone is pushing behind the scenes, or if the people in the powerful family in the capital are too boring. Two days later, almost everyone in the capital who has a little face knows that the concubine of the eldest lord of the Guogong Mansion and the current grandmother Ji Si opened a construction shop, and the loss is a mess, and it has been a long time since the workers and craftsmen have been paid.
This is not the key, the key is that this fourth grandmother Ji has a rich dowry, but she is reluctant to take out the silver and pay the workers' wages. Instead, he instigated the workers of the construction bank to pester his father Ye Hongyang, causing Ye Hongyang to have no choice but to instruct his subordinates to steal the utensils in the house and pawn them in the pawnshop.
It is even rumored that this construction bank, which is recorded in the name of Ji Si's grandmother, was also opened by her coaxing her father to sell the belongings of the Guogong Mansion to get money.
Such a cheating daughter, in this patriarchal era, makes people's jaws plummet. In a short period of time, this matter was rumored.
The broad masses of the people, with their extraordinary imagination, have conceived different kinds of wonderful versions, all of which say how immoral and unfilial the fourth grandmother of the Ji family is.
Remember this key, people blame the fourth grandmother of the Ji family, but the Ye family of Anguo Mansion, who raised Ye Xinyi, is the victim.
Mrs. Zhou has been receiving strange stares for several days, and she is still surprised in her heart, what is the situation, why are there problems with the eyes of many female dependents in the past few days?
Then, she listened to her personal grandmother dodge and talk about the rumors outside.
The news that the personal grandmother told her has already become, and it turns out that Ji Si's grandmother is also innocent, and she didn't think about losing her salary. It's that the Ji family is very strict, and she doesn't dare to use the dowry stored in the Ji family to do things related to merchants and handicrafts.
Therefore, it is really understandable that those craftsmen only found the master of the Guogong Mansion.
Mrs. Zhou was so angry, she Ye Xinyi did such a thing, can she be excusable, co-authoring is their Ji family is unkind, harsh on her, and even like a plot for her dowry?
Annoyed, Mrs. Zhou immediately asked people to go to Ye Xinyi to come over for questioning, so she was still angry, and called the grandmother next to her to give some instructions.
Since Dongze Construction Bank can't do it anymore, Ye Xinyi really doesn't want to save it anymore. If you are paid, you are even more reluctant to give it.
She originally thought that her father Ye Hongyang was also from the Guogong Mansion, and it was of course best if he could advance the salary, so she could sell the construction bank on the spot.
Even if Ye Hongyang can't pay it, those poor craftsmen who rely on hard work to eat will not dare to argue with the powerful in the capital.
But how did she know that someone was behind this matter, even if she paid the salary, she could cause trouble, not to mention that she still wanted to repay the debt.
Mrs. Zhou didn't know about those rumors, but she knew about them early on. From the moment she heard the faint rumors, she was worried about the moment Mrs. Zhou was looking for her.
Now, she has been completely snubbed by Mrs. Zhou, and even the morning and dusk provinces, which Mrs. Zhou attaches the most importance to, have been exempted, and she has only been exempted.
If this is in the past, when Ye Hongyang was still a son, there was such a good thing, Ye Xinyi didn't know how happy she would be. But at this time, it was obvious that her mother-in-law didn't want to look at her, so she was isolated from the Zhou family's family affairs.
Mrs. Zhou's eldest maid Qinglian was waiting outside, and Ye Xinyi was changing clothes in the inner room, while looking at the hourglass anxiously. Damn, how did the mother-in-law have a seizure at this time, if her son Sheng Ge'er was there, she would take Sheng Ge'er to see her mother-in-law, maybe her mother-in-law would restrain herself in front of Brother Sheng.
However, Brother Sheng went to the clan to learn enlightenment, and at this hour, there was still a period of time before school. And his husband is preparing for the next year's scientific expedition, and he is not in the house, so he has no hope.
Qinglian's voice came in: "Qing'er, I don't know how long it will take for the fourth grandmother to leave, Mrs. is waiting there." ”
Ye Xinyi gritted her teeth secretly, as the saying goes: A knife to stretch out your head and shrink your head is also a knife, since you can't dodge, let's go.
Mrs. Zhou was very serious in the past, but her face at this time was even more gloomy than ever, and there were the other three daughters-in-law of the Ji family in the room, sitting on the brocade stool in turn, and their respective maids stood behind them.
Ye Xinyi also came with maids, but the two maids were blocked out of the door. She had no choice but to enter the door alone, and according to the rules, she bowed to Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou lowered her eyes and said coldly, "Get up." ”
Ye Xinyi stood up, lowered her head, and didn't look at the few sisters-in-law who were sitting on the side watching her.
In the past, when her father was still a son, she always sat on the brocade stool closest to Mrs. Zhou, and the other older sisters-in-law had to sit under her.
At that time, Mrs. Zhou said that because she was young, she would be allowed to do a little bit. Now that I think about it, it's really ridiculous.
The room was silent for a long time, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn and embarrassing.
Ye Xinyi felt that she couldn't breathe, and Mrs. Zhou spoke, still in a cold voice: "I told you before, let you give that what construction should be given to whom, how did you do it?" ”
"I, daughter-in-law," Ye Xinyi pondered and said, "Mother instructed her daughter-in-law that day, and the daughter-in-law told the steward to let the people who built the bank go to the Anguo Mansion if they have something." ”
Mrs. Zhou slapped her palm, slapped it on the table, and said angrily: "Then the construction line is recorded in your name?" You've pushed it clean! ”
Ye Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Originally, the construction shop was bought by my mother's father, and it was recorded in the daughter-in-law's name, just for the convenience of the daughter-in-law when she was in charge." ”
This is the rhetoric she has thought of a long time ago, no matter how high the reputation of the Ji family is, the father will no longer be successful, and the Ji family will not dare to confront An Guogong's son privately.
Besides, most of the money that bought this construction company was from her father, and her words were completely defensible.
Mrs. Zhou was even more angry in her heart, that day in Ci'en Temple, Ye Xinyan once said that her four daughters-in-law bought this construction company in order to deal with her sister-in-law, and she also coaxed Ye Hongyang to sell the items privately, so she had two silver taels.
Today's rumors coincide with Ye Xinyan's words and Ye Xinyi's pretext, what does this mean? It shows that what Ye Xinyan said is right.
"That's the father who gave birth to you, raised you, and loved you. How dark is your experience to be so ruthless to deceive him? Mrs. Zhou shouted angrily.
Ye Xinyi lowered her head, her face was hot. She didn't look up to know how happy her three concubines were now. How favored she was in the Ji family at the beginning, and now she has three sisters-in-law.
Just because her father is no longer the son of Duke Anguo, and she will not be able to inherit the title of Duke Anguo in the future, her status in the Ji family will plummet, and she will not need face at all, and she can reprimand her in front of everyone!
This is the Ji family, which has been scholarly for generations and is known for its nobility!
Next, Mrs. Zhou said something even more ugly: "Why was I blind in the first place, why didn't I see that you are such a virtuous, unscrupulous and unfilial woman?" ”
Ye Xinyi raised her head in amazement and looked at Mrs. Zhou in disbelief: "Mother, mother......" Mother-in-law has always flaunted that she has supreme character and upbringing, she, how could she say such a thing?
The next words made her even more unimaginable and even unacceptable. I want to talk about "Women's Beauty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
