Chapter 6 The rules cannot be broken

Chapter 6 The rules cannot be broken

Su Wanyu explained softly, "Madam, I have prepared clothes for Jiang."

Yes, the dancers’ clothes exposed their navels and arms.

Jiang Yingying had no words to express her grievances, so she could only turn to her distant cousin for help.

Guo had already offended Su Wanyu yesterday, and today she didn't dare to defend Jiang Yingying openly: "It is indeed not appropriate to wear white clothes. Hurry up and perform the tea ceremony and go to the backyard early."

Jiang Yingying's lips trembled with grievance. She glanced at Su Wanyu sideways, took the tea handed to her by the woman next to her, and prepared to serve her tea.

She bent down and offered tea to Old Madam Zheng first: "Old Madam, please have some tea."

Old Mrs. Zheng was about to take it.

Su Wanyu suddenly shouted coldly: "Kneel down!"

Everyone was stunned.

Even Old Mrs. Zheng was at a loss as to what to do with her sudden order.

Su Wanyu said slowly: "According to the rules of the mansion, concubines must kneel down and bow when offering tea, old lady, the rules cannot be broken."

When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she sighed and said, "Yes, kneel down, kneel down."

Jiang Yingying tightly gripped the teacup, her expression becoming even uglier.

Su Wanyu stared at her sideways, waiting for her to kneel down.

In her previous life, Jiang Yingying had scolded her as a lowly concubine, and in this life, she knelt humbly before her.

After Jiang Yingying served tea to Old Madam Zheng, Guo, and Wang, she walked to Su Wanyu holding the teacup, hesitated for a moment, and knelt on the ground with a plop: "Second Young Madam, please have some tea."

This kneeling took away all of Jiang Yingying's arrogance.

She was unwilling to do so, so she rolled her eyes and raised her fingers slightly, trying to pour the cup of hot tea in her hand on Su Wanyu under the pretense of weakness.

Su Wanyu sat as steady as a mountain, her eyes as deep as a pool, having seen through everything already.

Just as Jiang Yingying was about to spill the tea in her hand, a small figure suddenly rushed in from outside the mansion gate, kicked Jiang Yingying with his little feet.

A crisp cracking sound was heard, and the cup of tea spilled onto the ground, turning into pieces.

Jiang Yingying fell to the ground, covering her stomach with her hands.

"my stomach……"

Everyone's eyes were focused on the child in the green shirt.

He used his thin body to protect Su Wanyu behind his back.

His name is Zheng Yuanbin.

Lord Zheng's youngest son, only eight or nine years old, has been plagued by insanity since childhood.

Su Wanyu has been taking care of him all the time, and she also hired a master to teach him horse riding.

Although he was born to a concubine, his aunt was a maid serving the eldest princess, and since he was insane, no one dared to mess with him.

When his madness struck, his behavior was unpredictable.

This kick was relatively light.

Old Madam Ning was furious. "Which bastard let him out without permission? Take him back to the room and call a doctor!"

Jiang Yingying looked even more fragile due to her pregnancy. Although she didn't use all her strength in that kick, the pain still made her face pale.

She pointed at Su Wanyu and yelled, "It's you. No one else would do such a thing except you!"

Guo hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "He is the sixth young master of our Zheng family. He is mentally handicapped. How can you argue with him?"

Although her voice was stern, her eyes revealed a hint of helplessness. Even the old lady was often helpless when it came to this Sixth Young Master.

Jiang Yingying knew this very well and could only swallow her anger this time. The pain in her body almost made her collapse, but she couldn't find a reasonable reason to attack Su Wanyu.

The doctor came hurriedly, and she was carefully supported by the maid and walked towards the backyard.

At this time, Zheng Yuanbin jumped up to Su Wanyu and asked, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, did that person bully you just now?"

Facing this child whom she once treated as her own brother, Su Wanyu gently shook her head.

Looking back, Zheng Yuanbin was only five or six years old at that time. His chubby appearance was adorable. In this cold mansion, he was one of the few people who showed kindness to her.

However, fate played a trick on him. The regent died, the princess died, and he was unfortunately involved in the turmoil, and eventually ended up being imprisoned and burned to death.

Now that they met again, her nose was filled with sadness, but her heart was filled with the joy of regaining hope.

Zheng Yuanbin tilted his head, looking childish, and said naively: "Sister-in-law, the weather is so good today, come with me to see the bird I caught!"

Su Wanyu smiled with a hint of apology, took out two candies from her bosom, and gently placed them in his palm, "Good boy, my sister-in-law has something to do today, I will definitely accompany you tomorrow, okay?"

Zheng Yuanbin's excitement disappeared in an instant, but he still nodded.

Afterwards, Su Wanyu turned around and followed everyone to Jiang's yard.

As the mistress of the Ning Mansion, she gave orders with confidence, arranged for the maids to make the bed, and quickly summoned a famous doctor to diagnose Jiang Yingying.

No one could find fault with her.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Jiang Yingying's injuries were serious. Zheng Yuanbin's careless kick caused a fracture. Fortunately, the fetus in her belly was not seriously injured.

Seeing this, the old lady and Mrs. Guo were still frightened, but they didn't say anything more. They just told Jiang Yingying to concentrate on recovering from her injuries, and chose to deal with other matters in silence.

After learning that Jiang Yingying was injured, Zheng Chengyan angrily broke into Su Wanyu's yard.

"It was you. You instructed someone to cut her hair. And you deliberately let Zheng Yuanbin go out to hurt her?"

Su Wanyu looked up and met his clear jade eyes, but there was no ripple in her heart.

All that was left of the past now is only cold disgust.

Once upon a time, she was also moved by such a pair of eyes. At a young age, who could resist the temptation of such gentle eyes?

Those heartbeats had long since turned into surging disgust.

Zheng Chengyan looks handsome, but he is as cruel as a venomous snake in his heart.

In order to marry Jiang Yingying, he not only turned against her, but also spoke harshly to her: "Su Wanyu, you are a merchant's daughter with a humble status. How can you be worthy of being the mistress of my Zheng family? The position of mistress must belong to Ying'er, and you are only fit to do the most menial things!"

The tenderness and sweetness before marriage were completely shattered at that moment.

Later, she was labeled "mad" and imprisoned in the woodshed for many years. Her countless pleas were met with only his indifference and the servants' arbitrary bullying.

After he gained power, he killed the Su family, presented her father's head in front of her, and watched her heartbreak and despair coldly.

Faced with the questioning, Su Wanyu had no extra words. She pulled out a document that had been prepared long ago from her sleeve and handed it to him calmly.

After Zheng Chengyan took it, he frowned slightly and asked, "What is this?"

"Divorce letters." Su Wanyu said calmly.

Zheng Chengyan let out a sarcastic smile. "Divorce letter? Is it because I married Ying'er that you are playing hard to get with me?"

Su Wanyu sneered in response: "Zheng Chengyan, aren't you always dissatisfied with this marriage? Then, let's end it here. You go your way, and I go mine."

Zheng Chengyan was shocked when he heard this. He thought Su Wanyu, who came from a merchant family, was greedy for power, had no talent or morals, and would endure humiliation in order to curry favor with the powerful even if she was imprisoned in a dungeon. However, he did not expect that she would take the initiative to propose a divorce.
