Chapter 190 Watching a Show
Chapter 190 Watching a Show
In the past, Wen Yajing was crazy, and Old Madam Wen would often come to the Yongding Marquis' Mansion to see her. She was quite familiar with the layout of the Yongding Marquis' Mansion, and she rushed to Gu Ping's yard, but did not find any trace of Wen Yajing.
At this moment, she no longer cared whether it was rude or not. She reached out and grabbed a maid's arm and asked angrily, "Where is my daughter Wen Yajing?"
"I didn't know that you hurt me." The maid was a servant in Gu Ping's courtyard. Ever since Gu Ping and Wen Yajing divorced, she wanted to take the opportunity to seduce Gu Ping and hoped to be promoted to his concubine.
But before she could find an opportunity to climb into bed, Gu Ping took Qin Wanyue back home.
Qin Wanyue was not as gentle and generous as Wen Yajing. Relying on her favor and the fact that she gave birth to Gu Anze, she kept a close eye on the maids, giving them no chance to get into bed at all.
She was unhappy to begin with, and today, seeing Wen Yajing return to the Earl's Mansion, she became even angrier, and even Old Madam Wen was angry.
He struggled to break free from her pull and pushed her away with his backhand.
If Xie Lan hadn't been quick to help her, Madam Wen would have fallen hard.
"Will you tell me or not?" Tiechui said with a cold face. He drew his sword and put it on the maid's neck.
"Don't, don't, don't kill me," the maid never expected Tiechui's expression to change suddenly, she was so scared that she stammered, "No, I don't know."
Madam Wen was so anxious that she didn't care about the maid's pushing her just now. She kept asking, "How could you not know? I remember that you were Gu Ping's servant. You would definitely see my daughter, a living person of her age, coming to the Bo's Mansion."
Tiechui didn't believe it and pressed the sword in his hand hard, "How dare you lie? Do you believe that I will really kill you?"
The maid was so scared that she was scared out of her wits. "I didn't lie. I really didn't know. Although I heard that Wen came to the Duke's house, she only went to the front yard and didn't come to the prince's yard."
Madam Wen wanted to continue asking, but was stopped by Xie Lan, "She didn't lie, Wen Yajing is definitely not here."
The trembling people nearby saw Xie Lan's cold eyes and waved their hands in fear, "We don't know either."
"So Yajing is still in the front yard? I'll go find her right now." Old Madam Wen hurried to the front yard.
Xie Lan frowned slightly. The Yongding Marquis's Mansion was neither big nor small. It was unknown how long it would take to find Wen Yajing, so she simply calculated it.
"In the west wing of the front yard."
When Wen Yajing's son was born, Qin Wanyue secretly ordered someone to take him away and abandon him. It was Xie Lan who helped find him. Old Madam Wen was very convinced of Xie Lan's ability.
The three of them hurried to the west wing of the front yard, but found no one there. They thought that Gu Ping had sent away all the maids and servants to make things easier.
Xie Lan took a quick glance and pointed to the room on the right and said to Tiechui, "Kick open that room."
Tiechui responded, climbed up the stone steps, and kicked the tightly closed carved partition door.
With a loud bang, the partition door opened, revealing the entire room.
Wen Yajing was sleeping on a small wooden bed, her outer and inner clothes scattered on the ground, leaving only her bellyband and underwear.
Mrs. Wen, who had just arrived, was so angry when she saw the scene in the room that she almost passed out. She rushed into the room angrily and slapped Gu Ping in the face.
"You are a beast worse than pigs and dogs. My daughter has already divorced you. What do you want to do?"
Good things were interrupted, and Gu Ping was as angry as Madam Wen.
Seeing that she was about to slap him, he subconsciously wanted to dodge. But thinking of what he had planned, he could only force himself to take the slap. In a rage, Madam Wen slapped him hard, and half of Gu Ping's face was swollen. But he neither got angry nor complained.
After lowering his eyes to hide the hatred in his eyes, he said softly, "Mother-in-law, you misunderstood. I didn't do anything to Yajing..."
"Who is your mother-in-law? I don't have a son-in-law as heartless as you." Old Lady Wen interrupted Gu Ping with an angry look on her face before he could finish his explanation.
"Do you think I'm a fool? If you didn't do anything to Yajing, why would she faint here? And why did you take off her clothes?"
"It was my son-in-law's fault. He missed Xiaobao too much, but because he was worried that Yajing would not agree, he secretly took Xiaobao away without telling her in advance. Yajing was worried for a whole day and night.
Maybe she fainted because she was so excited when she saw Xiaobao just now. My son-in-law had to carry her here to rest. "
They arrived just in time, Wen Yajing was not abused, and Xie Lan was in a mood to watch the show.
At this moment, she leaned against the door with her arms folded across her chest, and smiled sarcastically, "Even if what you said is true, you don't need to take off all your clothes, right?"
The affair of having a mistress was exposed by Xie Lan. Gu Ping was deeply impressed by her and his hatred for her was like a raging rage.
But when he saw the maid beside her, he could only pretend nothing had happened and hide the hatred in his heart.
He turned around and said to Madam Wen with an honest and respectful face, "I didn't mean to take off Yajing's clothes. I just saw that when she fainted, she accidentally knocked over the teacup and wet her clothes. In order to prevent her from catching a cold, I helped her take off her clothes."
"Oh, so you also knocked over the teacup? Or how come you took off your outer clothes? If we hadn't come, would you have wanted to sleep in the bed with us?"
Xie Lan had a smile on his face, but the sarcasm in his words made Gu Ping so angry that he almost vomited blood.
What hatred did he have with this Miss Xie? Last time, she exposed his affair with a mistress, and now she was trying to ruin his plans again.
The hateful thing was that the maidservant beside her was too skilled in martial arts, so he couldn't do anything to her.
Gu Ping's face suddenly changed. No, he had clearly arranged guards and bribed so many people from the underworld. How did these three people get in?
Were they all killed by that maid?
Gu Ping was in doubt, but when he saw Madam Wen glaring at him angrily, he quickly pretended to be innocent and said, "Mother-in-law, when I was carrying Yajing here to rest, the tea on her body got my outer garment wet, so I had no choice but to take it off. I didn't mean to do anything bad to her."
"Really? Why don't we ask the Wen family about this?"
"Yes, you should ask Yajing about this. I don't believe your excuses."
Gu Ping choked, and before he could think of an excuse to stop her, Old Madam Wen had already pinched Wen Yajing's philtrum.
"Mom, why are you here?" Wen Yajing opened her eyes dazedly, not understanding the situation for a moment. But suddenly she found herself lying on the bed in the Yongding Marquis's mansion. She subconsciously wanted to get up, but was held down by Madam Wen.
Wen Yajing was puzzled when she suddenly found that she was covered with a brocade quilt, with only a bellyband and underpants on her body.
Seeing that Wen Yajing had woken up, Gu Ping had to pretend to be a gentleman and turned his back.
Wen Yajing suppressed her anger, quickly put on her clothes, and walked up to Gu Ping.
"Yajing..." Gu Ping smiled and called her affectionately, but he was slapped hard on the face.
