Lord Xi is now looking at the lady he has remarried, and his heart is full of disgust.

"In the past, you kept saying that you should not talk about Xi Qingyan's mother all the time for your husband, which will make your status as the master mother of Shangshu Mansion be questioned, and the words that spread out are not good for the official reputation of your husband, but now it seems that you are taking into account the reputation of your own official, you just don't want the subordinates in the mansion to compare you with Xi Qingyan's mother! Because you're not as good as she is!"

How much Lord Xi loved Mrs. Shangshu in the past, how much he felt blind at this moment.

"Master, how can you say that about me? Everything I did at the beginning was really for the sake of your official reputation!"

"Master, you are the Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites of my dynasty, if the lady of your family can't be treated respectfully by the subordinates of the Shangshu Mansion, then how can Your Majesty believe that your lord can be polite in the affairs of the state?"

Mrs. Shangshu was very unhappy when she saw that Lord Xi had turned out everything she had done in the past!

"Master, think about it, since you married me into the door, has the concubine been in good order to keep the Shangshu Mansion up and down?"

"Master, if there is no me, Mrs. Shangshu, can you be your Lord Shangshu in the court without worry?"

Mrs. Shangshu felt extremely aggrieved.

For so many years, she has worked hard and conscientiously for this Shangshu Mansion, but she didn't expect to end up like this!

"Madam, as a child, I can't watch you belittle my father like this."

Xi stepped forward lightly, deliberately pretending to defend Lord Shangshu, and said indignantly to Mrs. Shangshu.

She learned this trick from Xi Chuyu and Mrs. Shangshu's mother and daughter, and today, she will repay the other with her own way!

In the past, Xi Chuyu's mother and daughter used the trick of "crying, making trouble, and hanging herself" to make Xi Qingyan suffer so many losses in secret, and today, she also wants to let Mrs. Shangshu taste what it is called bitter and unspeakable!

"Madam, I lost my mother when I was young, and it was my father who was the master of Shangshu while managing the inside and outside of Shangshu Mansion.

"Although I was very young at the time, I still remember that when my father was in charge of the family at that time, our masters and servants of Shangshu Mansion were united and kind-hearted, and absolutely no one dared to withhold the master's money privately and build his own big mansion outside!"

"Madam, I know that you have always been unaccustomed to my stepdaughter, you think that the daughter you have born is the best, so you will find fault with what I do everywhere, I can ignore all this, but you can't belittle my father's ability to run the family because of this!"

Xi Qingyan's words made Lord Shangshu more and more impatient with Mrs. Shangshu on the side.

"Xi Qingyan, what nonsense are you talking about here? When did I doubt my master's abilities? I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense here! What I just said is obviously you, and you have bad intentions, so you will target me everywhere!"

"Xi Qingyan, don't you just want to keep your mother's position in Shangshu Mansion? It's a pity that she's still a dry skeleton now! It's useless for you to be obsessed with your mother......

"Smack!"

Before Mrs. Shangshu finished speaking, she was slapped directly in the face, and it was none other than Lord Shangshu who hit her.

"Sir...... How can you hit me, sir? Ever since I entered the Shangshu Mansion, you have never been so rude to me!"

Mrs. Shang Shu never thought that Lord Shang Shuxi would give her a slap in front of Xi Qingyan!

In the past, her husband had always been obedient to her, and he would never be so harsh.

"It's light to slap you, who let the original wife of Master Ben talk behind his back? Xi Qingyan's mother is good or not, then only Master Ben is qualified to judge, you are a step-family who remarries here, the first wife is pointing fingers, don't you feel that your actions are contrary to the etiquette of the master of Shangshu Mansion?"

Lord Shang Shuxi reprimanded his remarried wife.

"I've been too indulgent to you over the years, so I made you forget that there are other reasons for dignity and humility, don't you know that it is precisely because of your background and etiquette that Xi Qingyan's mother is not as good as Xi Qingyan's mother, that you have to be the master of this house?"

"You woman can't see the flaws in herself, but she clings to the small mistakes of others, a person like you is really not worthy of being a lady in the house!"

Lord Shangshu's words were like a knife stabbed into Mrs. Shangshu's heart.

Over the years, the reason why Mrs. Shangshu has been so generous in handling the affairs of Shangshu Mansion is just to prevent the servants of Shangshu Mansion and her husband from treating her as a house-filling lady differently.

"Master, what the hell did I do wrong? Although I was not as good as the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion back then, I was also the daughter of a serious family! Master, you used a sedan chair to marry me into the door, and now you say such things in front of the children, aren't you afraid that I will be cold?"

Mrs. Shangshu felt that she was really too aggrieved!

She gave so much of her youth and beautiful years for this family and the man in front of her, but she didn't expect to end up complaining only to her husband!

"Yes, the threshold of your Shangshu Mansion is higher than ours! But, sir, don't forget, when I married you, you already had a daughter like Xi Qingyan! Do you know what my sisters were talking about me behind my back?"

"They laughed at me for being a big girl with yellow flowers, rushing to be a stepmother to someone else!"

"Master, do you think you have been wronged by marrying a woman like me who is not high, may I ask, I was not wronged when I married you as a big girl with yellow flowers?"

"As a husband, have you never thought about this for me?"

Mrs. Shangshu really couldn't hold it back, she had kept these words in her heart for too many years, if she didn't say it today, she was worried that she would never have the opportunity to say it to her husband in front of her in her life!

"You are never alone in the grievances, master, do you know how much you have been wronged for the sake of the master in the past so many years!"

Mrs. Shangshu cried to Lord Xi in front of her, of course, there was her voice in it, but it was more to win sympathy.

She knew that her man was the most innocent of her tears!

What's more, now that she has told her half-truths about the past, even if her husband will not continue to love her as usual, he will not hold on to the mistakes she made today.

"Sir, you know what? I was also a young daughter's family back then, and I suddenly became the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion, how much suffering I suffered, how many white eyes I suffered, I never told you before, just because I felt that the master worked hard for the glory and wealth of Shangshu Mansion in the court, and I shouldn't hold the master's hind legs!"

"However, Xi Qingyan's behavior today is really chilling for me as a mother!"

"Yes, I am indeed not Xi Qingyan's biological mother, but I have been doing my best to take care of Xi Qingyan over the years!"

"Master, I'm a human being, I'm not a god! I can't do it all, maybe I've been really not good enough in some places, but it wasn't intentional for me."

Mrs. Shangshu said that she was particularly wronged, but Xi looked at it lightly, but she only had a sneer in her heart.

She has now discovered that the most powerful thing about Mrs. Shangshu is really this upside-down black and white mouth!

At first, his father had already spoken coldly to Mrs. Shangshu because of her words, but he didn't expect that after Mrs. Shangshu cried like this, his father's eyebrows were a little more helpless and distressed.

Oh, man!

Xi Qingyan knew why the previous original owner had lived so miserably in Shangshu Mansion.

As the saying goes, if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather.

However, in Xi Qingyan's opinion, Lord Shangshu, who is a father, is afraid that he has never been Xi Qingyan's "father". ap.

Naturally, Lord Shangshu was once again confused by the woman Mrs. Shangshu, so she could only make Xi Qingyan shoot again1

Xi Qingyan is right

Chun Tao on the side made a look, and Chun Tao understood.

"Master, Zhao Fu has found it! The person has been pressed by the courtyard in the palace, does the lord still want to see him now?"

The compassion that Lord Shang Shuxi felt in his heart for his wife, after hearing Chun Tao's return, completely turned into a necessity.

"What do you mean by that? Chun Tao, what did this old man order, could it be that you have forgotten it?"

"Go, bring me that villain Zhao Fu, I want to see how this guy bought his big mansion with three in and three out!"

Shang Shuxi's anger was ignited again.

And Mrs. Shangshu's original plan to pretend to be pitiful and win sympathy was completely wiped out in Chun Tao's interruption.

Zhao Fu was escorted in by the people of Shangshu Mansion in the next moment.

Over the years, he has fished a lot of oil and water from Shangshu Mansion, and he has long known that he will be found one day, but people are greedy, as long as they are not rescued, they will always have a fluke mentality.

The same is true for Zhao Fu.

"Villain...... See ...... villain ...... old man"

Today, when the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion blocked him with so many servants, Zhao Fu knew that he was completely miserable this time.

He knew the methods of Lord Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, so now he knelt in front of Lord Shang Shu, and couldn't help but tremble!

"Master Ben heard that a small procurement office in my house can buy a big house with three entrances and three exits on the streets of Kyoto?"

Lord Shang Shuxi looked at Zhao Fu in front of him and said with a sneer.

Zhao Fu is a street peddler and pawn, although Lord Xi is only a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, but the person who is an official always has official authority.

Where had Zhao Fu ever seen Master Xi talking to him with such a cold face?

So, he just spit it all out.

"Sir...... Master, I'll move! I can spit out all the money I swallowed before, and ...... And I can also return the big courtyard with three entrances and three exits to Shangshu Mansion, I just ask the lord to see that I am both old and young, and don't send me to the official!"

"Master, all this is not good for me! It's me Zhao Fuhun egg! How can I cheat my cousin's husband?"

"But...... But sir, for my cousin's sake, and for her sake, for your sake, spare me this time, I promise...... I promise that from now on, I will never appear in front of you!"

Zhao Fu's words not only made Lord Xi's face ugly, but Mrs. Shangshu on the side was also embarrassed.

"You white-eyed wolf! You really did something sorry for Shangshufu! Zhao Fu, I was kind enough to take you in Shangshu Mansion, and that's how you treated me?"

Lady Shang Shu cried, but Lord Shang Shu Xi no longer believed her words.

"Madame, be confined for one month, and you will not be allowed to meddle in family affairs thereafter."
