He said, ”Aunt, as the direct daughter of my Xiao family, to become a concubine in the Lian family is to suffer grievances to begin with. Furthermore, they even killed all of you and cousin sister.
She looked at Madam Xiao and said, ”I don't dare to think of anything right now. Big Brother hasn't even returned to the capital yet, I just want sister-in-law to come out and put pressure on the madame to release Ya Er from the temple. I'm really worried that if this goes on, she'll be ruined.”
Madam Xiao pursed her lips but didn't say anything.
Xiao Rou could no longer hold it in as she stood up and said, ”Mother, let's go with aunt to the Lian family right now and let the old mistress release my cousin from the temple! I don't believe that Lian Ru Yue is so capable that she doesn't dare to give our Xiao family face. ”When I get there, I'll definitely skin her two layers of skin. I'll let her see just how strong our Xiao family is.”
”Little sister, you don't have to do anything to teach Lian Meng Yue a lesson.” Xiao Shan's eyes became cold as he said, ”Father isn't home. As the eldest son of the family, I naturally have the duty of standing up for the Xiao family. Aunt, there is no need to worry.”
Auntie Xiao cried tears of joy. ”Ya Er can be saved this time.”
”Don't be impatient.” At this moment, Madam Xiao finally spoke up. ”Regarding this matter, no matter how you say it, even the family has not chased Ya Er out. Ya Er has committed a mistake, even her mother has punished her with family law, which is reasonable. ”Besides …”
Madam Xiao raised her eyes to look at Madam Xiao's makeup. It didn't look as exquisite and gorgeous as it used to be, but instead exuded an aura of loss. She said, ”You must have snuck out secretly, right?”
Auntie Xiao was stunned for a moment before her face flushed red. She lowered her head and said, ”I can't hide anything from sister-in-law.”
”If you sneak out like this and call for reinforcements, if I really go with you to the Prime Minister's Estate to pressure the Lian Family, then what would the Lian Family think of you? Even if they force Ya'er out, how will you stand in front of Madam Lian and Prime Minister Lian in the future?”
”This …” Lady Xiao was actually correct. Ya Er's wrongdoings had solid evidence and her punishment was reasonable. She didn't pay attention to Madam Xiao's intentions of calling for reinforcements when she returned home. She was simply slapping her in the face and not putting her in her eyes …
”Then what should we do? Was he going to just watch his cousin suffer in that damned place? ”I heard from my aunt that my cousin's injuries haven't completely healed. If this goes on for too long, what should I do?” Although Xiao Shan felt that what his mother said was reasonable, he couldn't swallow his anger!
”That's right, is it just because Lian Yueyue is pleased with herself?” Mother, no matter what, we must teach her a lesson! ” Xiao Rou held Aunt Xiao's hand and said, ”Aunt, it would be inconvenient for mother to come out. I'll go with you. I must save my cousin!”
”Pah!” Suddenly, Madam Xiao slammed an empty teacup onto the ground and scolded angrily, ”How dare you! Who was making the decision in the Xiao family now? You actually dare to ignore my words! ”
The siblings saw that their mother suddenly became angry, so they were scared and didn't dare to speak anymore.
Madam Xiao glared sternly at the two siblings in front of her and said, ”Xiao Shan, you are a man with the ambition to enter the imperial court.
Xiao Rou, what are you? Even her mother is the first wife of the imperial court's First-grade. You are just a stinking girl of no rank, what right do you have to speak up in front of her! ”
Madam Xiao was startled when she heard Madam Xiao's words. Everything that this sister-in-law said made sense. But how could this attitude make her feel that her sister-in-law was saying that Ya Er and she deserved it?
What was this sister-in-law thinking?
”A few days ago, your elder brother specially made people gallop on horses, bringing back a very rare Night Pearl from the Great Western Continent. I heard that even your mother doesn't like gold and likes pearls, so you can take this Night Pearl back and send it in your elder brother's name. As for the rest, wait until your elder brother returns to the capital, the Lian Clan will not let Ya Er die.”
”Yes, thank you, sister-in-law.”
