I've been reborn, who would still raise a son from another family? Go away

Ye Zhiwan's face flushed with anger, and she shook her head at Xie Jingrui with grievance. "No, Jingrui, you have never done it. It's her who has ulterior motives and wants to take the opportunity to slander me!"

The maid beside Ye Zhiwan came out and pulled Gu Yuwei away from her legs and threw her aside casually.

Gu Yuwei sat on the ground in a mess, her almond-shaped eyes looking at Ye Zhiwan and suddenly she sneered, "Hypocrisy, you just told others that Madam Liu spent five hundred taels of silver to buy a cat, isn't it just to ruin Madam Liu's reputation and bring shame to the Liu family?"

"When did I say these words?" Ye Zhiwan bit her lip and retorted, feeling aggrieved.

When Ye Zhiwan said those words just now, everyone was present. Although Ye Zhiwan did not say it that way, her implication was very clear. Moreover, when everyone was pointing at Liu Yueru, she did not speak to stop them. This made everyone misunderstand that it was Liu Yueru who deliberately offered a very high price to snatch the cat from them that day.

That's why he said those unpleasant words to Liu Yueru.

Some people were so angry that they murmured quietly, "Miss Ye, you are too disrespectful. You bought this cat at a high price, but you still say that the Jiang family reluctantly gave it up. Isn't this obviously saying something that will cause misunderstanding?"

"If you hadn't intentionally led us to have this misunderstanding, we wouldn't have thought that it was bought by Madam Liu. Let's be honest. There's no need to be like this."

"That's right. They knew there was a banquet today, but they didn't take care of the dangerous things in advance and left them in a crowded place. It was a big oversight."

"Most of those attending the banquet are nobles. If someone's child bumps into it, it will be a serious matter. Just now, Liu Niang almost got pierced in the back. With such a long branch, if someone uses a little force, it can pierce a person. Even if the person survives, the internal organs and body will be damaged, and it will be difficult to recover in a lifetime."

"Miss Ye, you just said a few nice words and forced Madam Liu to forgive others. Isn't this a clear case of moral kidnapping?"

"Don't do to others what you don't want done to you. If this happened to you, I'm afraid you would have a different excuse, right?"

While everyone was scolding Ye Zhiwan, they also looked at her with displeasure.

Ye Zhiwan's face turned pale and she kept shaking her head, wanting to explain, but she didn't know where to start.

Finally, Ye Zhiwan looked at Liu Yueru and said, "Madam Liu, please help me explain to everyone that I have no intention of harming you, and I have no reason to harm you."

"In that case, why not call the servants in the mansion to ask what these things are about?" Liu Yueru looked in Ye Zhiwan's direction with sharp eyes.

Ye Zhiwan's body softened, her feet staggered, and she almost lost her balance.

After Prime Minister Ye's wife learned about this from the servants, she hurried over and explained to everyone with a smile, "Oh, look at my memory. I was the one who asked the servants to put the branches up. I originally wanted to make some climbing ladders to connect the two trees together. I was only halfway done when I suddenly had to hold a banquet and forgot about it."

Prime Minister Ye's wife exuded a noble aura. She walked towards Xie Jingrui and glanced at him with a half-smile.

Then he half-jokingly said, "Prince Jin always took good care of Wan'er when they were children, like a younger sister. Why did he join in the fun today and make fun of Wan'er?"

The Prime Minister's wife held Ye Zhiwan in her arms and patted her on the back. She was full of imposing aura and said to those people, "This happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion today. We didn't take good care of you. When we leave, we will give each of you a gift to express our apology."

Then, she looked at Gu Yuwei fiercely, with murderous intent in her eyes, but soon she regained her elegant smile; "Miss Gu is also an honored guest of our Prime Minister's Mansion. She did such a reckless thing today. Someone send her back to the Duke's Mansion and let Duke Gu discipline her."

After doing all this, Madam Ye raised her eyes to look at Xie Jingrui and said, "Your Highness, do you think this is so clear? It can be regarded as repaying the favor of a young age."

When she said the last sentence, she was so quiet that Xie Jingrui could almost hear it himself.

Xie Jingrui looked back at Liu Yueru and didn't say anything more in the end.

Let Gu Yuwei be taken away.

Liu Yueru also heard that Ye Zhiwan had saved Xie Jingrui in the past. She didn't care about the fact that Ye Zhiwan had saved Xie Jingrui in exchange for his life.

Anyway, everyone has seen Ye Zhiwan's true character through this incident, and no one has suffered any substantial harm.

I'm just still scared. If Xie Jingrui hadn't shown up in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Although they were somewhat dissatisfied with the actions of the powerful Prime Minister's Office, no one dared to say anything.

Even Mrs. Ye only had a brief understanding of Ye Zhiwan's affairs.

After doing all this, Mrs. Ye, the Prime Minister's wife, walked up to Liu Yueru.

She had a gentle smile on her face, but there was a knife hidden in her smile.

Liu Yueru raised her cold eyes and looked at the Prime Minister's wife calmly and gracefully. She bowed slightly towards her.

After taking a look at Liu Yueru, Prime Minister Ye's wife said inexplicably, "She is indeed good-looking. I haven't seen her for a long time, but she looks even more outstanding."

Before Liu Yueru could speak, Prime Minister Ye's wife instructed the servants around her, "Madam Liu was frightened by what happened today. Go and get the deed to the rouge shop in East City."

Liu Yueru was stunned for a moment.

The rouge shop in the Prime Minister's Mansion is considered to be the best rouge shop in the whole of Kyoto. Prime Minister Ye's wife actually asked to give the shop to herself. Liu Yueru was unable to react for a moment.

When the servant handed the shop deed to Liu Yueru, Xie Jingrui took the deed for her first and said, "Thank you, Madam Prime Minister Ye."

"Mother, this..." The rouge shop in East City was originally intended for Ye Zhiwan, but now it was given to Liu Yueru. Ye Zhiwan was unwilling to accept it.

Prime Minister Ye’s wife originally just intended to be polite. If Liu Yueru declined, she would make up for it with something else.

Unexpectedly, Xie Jingrui directly helped Liu Yueru to accept it.

Then he handed the shop deed to Liu Yueru, "It would be disrespectful to refuse the kind gift from the Prime Minister's wife. Please keep it well."

Prime Minister Ye's wife secretly pinched her handkerchief.

Liu Yueru immediately understood, and happily took the deed and said to the Prime Minister's wife, "I thank the Prime Minister's wife."

Prime Minister Ye's wife smiled calmly and said, "As you should. Come and visit us more often. Wan'er has just returned to Kyoto and doesn't have many close friends. In the future, Madam Liu will be needed to help her get to know those noble ladies."

Liu Yueru smiled faintly and said nothing.

Everyone cast envious glances at Liu Yueru.

But Ye Zhiwan's face looked much worse.

Seeing this, Prime Minister Ye's wife gently patted the back of her hand and smiled meaningfully...
