Chapter 109: Retreat as Advance

Xia Lanchu was beaten to the side, covering his already numb cheeks, looking up at Wen with a cold face in disbelief, and his mind suddenly went blank.

The girl who was originally dressed up today, how can she still look dignified at this moment?

The messy bun, the red and swollen face, and the unsightly makeup washed away by tears are ridiculous and infuriating.

Wen took a deep breath and hid the distress well, replacing it with endless anger.

"How did your mother teach you? As the daughter of the Xia family, you must always remember the dignity of the General's Mansion and take care of sisterhood! What is the big thing that makes you forget what your mother has always taught? Flesh and blood are thicker than water, and the sage books you have read over the years have all been returned to those famous teachers? Are you worthy of your grandmother and father, and worthy of my painstaking expectations?!"

"Mother, mother?"

What's going on? Didn't my mother always hate that Xia Qianwei, wishing that she would die early and be born soon? Now she actually taught herself such a lesson for her?

Xia Lanchu's eyes were full of incredulity, and this angry voice quickly attracted the people outside, and Mama Lei was already standing outside the courtyard at some point, looking at the scene in front of her in surprise.

Wen's eyes were red, and his daughter was originally the most decent young lady in the General's Mansion, but now she has become a joke in the eyes of everyone!

Although she couldn't bear it, she had to do it!

I saw that Wen stabilized his mind and walked towards Mama Lei with a calm expression, while the other party quickly restrained his expression and saluted, "The old slave was instructed by the old lady to take the fourth lady to Fushouyuan." ”

Grandmother and grandmother want to see her?!

Xia Lan panicked at first, shrunk her neck and resisted all over.

"Mama Lei came just in time, and I was planning to personally take this unfilial girl to the old lady to ask for sin. I only heard Wen's righteous awe-inspiring mouth, and then looked at Xia Changfeng who was surprised on the side, "Changfeng, you are right, my mother can't get used to her anymore, come on!"

Immediately, two family members dragged Xia Lanchu up from the ground, ignoring her struggles, and followed Mama Lei and Wen towards the old lady's courtyard.

At this moment, the night was already dark, and the dim lantern illuminated Xia Lanchu's face pale.

She knelt weakly in front of the old lady, bowing her head and not daring to meet the stern gaze of her grandmother, the atmosphere in the room was so solemn that she could hear the sound of a needle falling on the ground, and every minute and every second was torment for her.

After a long time, the old lady slowly opened her mouth in a calm voice.

"I've heard Chang Feng say about it, daughter-in-law, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Xia Lanchu's heart couldn't help but rise a glimmer of hope, as long as her mother interceded for her, her grandmother would at most send her to Leiruo Temple to copy the scriptures and confess like last time, and she would be able to come back in a while......

But she didn't want the Wen family to kneel down beside her, "Mother, it's all the daughter-in-law who can't discipline her, so that Lan Chu made such a big mistake, if you don't punish it severely, I'm afraid that from now on, the descendants of the Xia family will no longer be able to unite and be friendly, and the future of the Xia family will be bleak." ”

The old lady had a look of surprise in her eyes, but she saw that Wen's face was full of sadness and remorse, not like she was pretending, so she opened her mouth and said tentatively, "The general has not been in the mansion for the past two days, so you say, how should you punish it severely to be able to convince the public? ”

I saw Wen leaning down and kowtowing heavily, "I beg my mother to send the fourth lady to another village in the countryside, and my daughter-in-law also volunteered to go to Lei Ruo Temple to confess her body and pray for the Xia family!"

"What? Mother, you, what are you talking about? I won't go, I won't go to Bezhuang......"

Xia Lanchu raised her head in shock and looked at Wen's side face, only to feel that she had heard it wrong, did her mother know what she was talking about, and she actually wanted her grandmother to drive her out of the General's Mansion?

The Xia family's other village is in such a remote and backward countryside, there is nothing, how can he survive?

"Shut up! If you still don't repent, you should have someone beat you to death!"

Wen shouted sharply, his bloodshot eyes and hateful expression as if he was going to eat her, "Your grandmother and father gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it, fortunately Qianwei is safe, otherwise, how can you make your mother worthy of the ancestors of the Xia family?!"

At this moment, Xia Lanchu really knew that she was afraid, she didn't understand why her mother suddenly stood on Xia Qianwei's side, and she suddenly felt abandoned by everyone.

Xia Changfeng clearly noticed that Xia Lanchu looked at him, and he couldn't help frowning, although he couldn't bear it, but this was the best way to deal with it.

People always have to take due responsibility for their own mistakes.

The indifferent and ruthless faces of everyone present made Xia Lanchu choke for a long time, and suddenly laughed sadly.

"Mother, you don't want a daughter anymore? I know that no matter how hard Lan Chu tries in your heart, it can't compare to a few words from the second brother! Since you were a child, you listened to everything he said, and I, to you, was just a dispensable existence!"

She seemed to be crazy, and she couldn't care about anything else at the moment, struggling to get up from the ground, but she was firmly held down by two family members.

Xia Lanchu glared at Xia Changfeng on the side with a hideous expression, "Second brother, why do you want to treat me like this? Are you happy now, your mother is going to drive Lan Chu out of the house, are you satisfied?!"

The old lady frowned, and the last trace of hesitation in her eyes turned into endless disappointment.

She doesn't know why this once the most well-behaved granddaughter has become what she is now, such hysterical right and wrong, the General's Mansion really can't tolerate her.

"My daughter-in-law understands the righteousness so well, so let's do it......"

The old lady withdrew her gaze from her body, and waved her hand in a little disgust, Xia Lanchu saw that she was about to be dragged down, but she screamed like crazy, "Don't touch me! No one is allowed to touch me! Grandmother, granddaughter is wronged......! Lan Chu can prove it, as long as ......"

"Shut her mouth for me!"

Wen shouted angrily, seeing that Xia Lanchu, who was struggling indiscriminately, was firmly gagged, and could only look at himself with grief and despair, Wen's heart ached so much that he almost didn't bite a mouthful of silver teeth.

But reason told her that if she wasn't ruthless at the moment, Xia Lanchu's life would really not be saved! This girl actually dared to talk nonsense in front of the old lady, did she really not understand her good intentions?

"Old lady, Young Master Leng has sent the third young lady back!" Someone outside reported it, Wen's eyes immediately changed, and the endless resentment turned into a bit of concern and self-blame the moment Xia Qianwei stepped in, she took a deep breath and stepped forward, and grabbed Xia Qianwei's arm.

"My poor daughter, it's the mother who is sorry for you!"
