Chapter 122 Regret
Chapter 122 Regret
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, Zhu, stop it."
The old lady shouted until her throat was hoarse, but Zhu was so angry that she would not listen to her.
She even resented the old lady for only asking her to stop but not stopping the mistress, and she wrestled with Yao like a madman.
On the surface, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Peng seemed to be well-intentioned in trying to stop the fight, but they were actually trying to sow discord.
The old lady was extremely anxious, but she left in such a hurry that she only brought Madam Zhao with her, and there was no one else to help mediate.
Seeing that the full moon banquet had turned into a joke, Xie Dahe was almost going crazy.
"Lan girl, that's enough. We are your elders after all. It's not proper for a junior like you to come here and cause trouble! This is Kyoto, not Sanqing Mountain where you can do whatever you want."
enough?
Xie Lan sneered, raised his hand and overturned the table.
"Uncle, may I ask, you stole your niece's money and set fire to the storehouse. What kind of etiquette is this?"
When Xie Lan said this, everyone was stunned.
Xie Dahe stole his niece’s money?
Seeing everyone's strange looks, Xie Dahe clenched his fists suddenly. He thought that this damn girl just happened to know that he had a mistress, so she brought Zhu to make trouble.
So you knew what he did?
But how is this possible? When he made the move, the damn girl was out with the hammer, and he also used a trick to lure Mrs. Zhang out of the house and made sure that there was no one in Tinglan Pavilion before he made the move.
Moreover, after he took the things away, he also poured kerosene. Normally, Tinglan Pavilion should have been burned to ashes, so how did this damn girl find out about him so quickly?
He must be tricking him.
As the thought flashed through his mind, Xie Dahe glared at Xie Lan angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? I went out early this morning, how could I steal your things? If you don't believe me, you can ask the guests here, they can all testify for me."
Yao's sister-in-law Huang thought of what Yao had just shown her, saying that Xie Dahe had given her many exquisite jewellery, and her eyes flashed with contempt.
She thought Xie Dahe was so generous to Yao because he had made a fortune, but it turned out that he had stolen his niece's things.
Although Huang despised him, she was not stupid enough to expose Xie Dahe. Instead, she helped to testify, "How can you, a girl, slander your third uncle?
He came here before daybreak and never left, so how could he steal your things? You should go back and look carefully to see if you left it somewhere else and forgot about it."
Huang was thinking in her mind that since she had spoken on behalf of Xie Dahe, she had to get Yao to give her two pieces of jewelry.
Except for Yao's family, the others were all relatives. Everyone originally thought that Yao had married into a wealthy family, but unexpectedly, she became someone's mistress.
I didn't want to pay any attention to this matter, but in the end I felt guilty about it, so I had to put on a smile and say a few words to smooth things over.
Xie Lan's eyes were cold, "Uncle San, do you think I'm a fool?"
Xie Dahe's eyes flickered, and his face showed tolerance for the mischief of the younger generation, "Lan girl, I know you resent your family for sending you to Sanqing Mountain and ignoring you for so many years. After returning to Beijing, you kept making trouble and wanted to vent your resentment.
But sending you to Sanqing Mountain was also a helpless move. When you were born, a monk said that your fate was incompatible with the Xie family. If you were not sent to the Taoist temple for foster care, not only would the Xie family die, but your own life span would also be shortened.
Your biological mother didn't want you to die at such a young age, so she made up her mind to send you to Sanqing Mountain for foster care. This is the truth, and it is not what you think, that the Xie family sent you away because they disliked you.
Think about it, if the Xie family really didn't like you, why would they take you back?
Now that you know the whole truth, Third Uncle hopes that you will let go of your anger and stop making trouble. Otherwise, if it gets out and ruins your reputation, how will you get married in the future? "
clap clap.
Xie Lan clapped his hands and laughed sarcastically, "Uncle San is so eloquent, but it's really a waste of his talent to be a small clerk in the Imperial Hospital."
Xie Lan suddenly stopped smiling, and with two bangs, he overturned the remaining two tables. "You said you sent me to foster care for my own good. It's obvious that you elders despise my bad fate. If it weren't for my mother who risked her life to protect me, I would have been drowned in the urine bucket by you.
For more than a decade, the Xie family has ignored me, and I have no intention of arguing with you, but you should never touch my things."
"Lan girl, that's enough. You've ruined the full moon banquet, how long are you going to make a fuss?" Xie Lan exposed the matter in front of so many outsiders without caring about anything. The old lady was so angry that her lips were shaking. She was afraid that she would also bring up what she had done.
"Your Third Uncle left at 11:00 a.m., and your Tinglan Pavilion was still fine at that time. And when your Third Uncle left, you were still in the mansion.
I know your things were burned and you are resentful towards everyone, but you can't slander your uncle because of this."
This is not seeing the coffin without shedding tears.
"Uncle, if you haven't touched my things, where did the hairpin on Yao's head and the pendant on her ears come from?"
"Of course I bought it in the Golden Building."
"Bought it at Jinlou? Uncle San said this. Have the emblems on the hairpin and pendant been worn off?"
Xie Dahe's expression suddenly changed, "What emblem? I don't know what you are talking about?"
"Don't know? Then it's okay for me to tell Uncle San now. The jewelry Yao is wearing was given to me by the Princess of Shouguang County. It has the emblem of the Guang'an County Prince's Mansion engraved on it."
Xie Dahe felt very regretful at this moment.
He left the house before dawn and waited until Xie Lan left before sneaking back. As soon as he got the things, he hurried to the outer house to avoid being discovered.
When Yao saw the things, she was overjoyed. Taking advantage of the fact that she had just finished her confinement, she couldn't wait to pull him to bed.
He and Yao quarreled for a long time, until the banquet was about to start, Yao hurriedly dressed up, put on jewelry, and came out to greet the guests.
They didn't even look closely and never imagined that those jewelry were engraved with the emblem of Guang'an County Prince's Mansion.
The full moon banquet was ruined and Yao was beaten by Zhu. How could she be willing to lose those exquisite jewels again?
"Even if there is the emblem of the Guang'an County Prince's Mansion, it doesn't mean that the jewelry is yours. There is no name engraved on it."
Did she think that if she didn't admit it, she wouldn't be able to do anything to Yao?
"Girl, let me do it." Just as Xie Lan was about to take action, Tiechui threw Xie Dahe aside.
He ran over in two or three steps, slapped Yao's face several times, then grabbed her hair and took back the hairpin and earrings.
“Although this jewelry is not engraved with my daughter’s name, you may not know that every gift sent by the Prince’s Mansion is registered.
As long as the Shouguang County Lady investigates, she will know whether it was given to my daughter. I wonder if you dare to confront her?"
How could Yao dare to go? She couldn't afford to offend a noble lady like the Princess of Shouguang County. She could kill her with just a flick of her finger...
