The evil woman becomes the concubine and the villain is crushed to ashes

Feng Xiaoniang suddenly turned around and said to Xiaodie.

"Besides, what does this matter have to do with us? Whether the marriage can be annulled or not, whether to keep the baby in Xie Ruyu's belly or not, it is a headache for our wife."

"Anyway, the fact that the Crown Prince is crippled is a fact, and it won't change the outcome in the future. Think about it, if you were the Marquis, would you love a crippled son more, or a talented and healthy son more?"

Xiaodie's expression changed and she immediately started laughing.

"My dear little girl, you are wise!"

Feng Xiaoniang didn't care and waved her hand.

"Alright, there's no point in saying these compliments. Go to the academy right away and call the second young master back. His brother has gotten into such a big trouble, how can he, as a younger brother, not care about him?"

Mrs. Feng wants the second young master to come back and show up in front of the Marquis!

Especially since something like this happened today.

Which one is better, the prince who only knows how to cause trouble and is useless, or the second young master who put aside his studies and rushed back to care for his brother?

The Lord is not blind.

Even if you don't say it, you have a scale in your heart!

Xiaodie was delighted and immediately accepted the order.

"I will go right away and bring the Second Young Master back!"

……

The gate of Marquis Cheng'en's Mansion was crowded with people.

Except for the place where the Xie family was standing, which was intentionally left empty by the people, other places were full of people.

When people passing by heard that the Xie and Xiao families were having so much fun, they spontaneously stayed to watch the fun.

As a result, more and more people gathered outside the gate of Marquis Cheng'en's Mansion, and the discussions became louder and louder.

If the stalemate continues and the people from Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion don't show up, it would mean they are admitting that they are guilty.

On an ordinary carriage outside the crowd, the curtain was opened a little.

Xie Lingxi was sitting in the carriage, staring coldly at the gate of Cheng'en Marquis Mansion through the gap without saying a word.

Although she was sitting in the carriage, she could still hear the people outside talking about the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion.

Some people said that the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion was a coward, while others said that Xiao Yusheng was shameless. Of course, there were also some inexplicable people who did not blame Xiao Yusheng but instead called Xie Lingxi stupid.

For example, Xie Lingxi didn’t even know that her sister was having an affair with Xiao Yusheng. She couldn’t protect a man. If she wasn’t stupid, then what is she?

After hearing these remarks, Xie Lingxi felt no emotion at all. It was really because her experiences in her previous life were too tragic.

The vicious remarks we hear now are nothing but drizzle and naturally cannot cause any waves.

"Give way, give way."

The maid who went to inquire about the news pushed through the crowd, returned to the carriage, looked around, asked the guards to keep watch and not allow others to squeeze in, and got on the carriage herself.

Sitting on the side of the carriage, the maid let out a long breath and complained to Xie Lingxi.

"Miss, this Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion is such a coward! Not a single person came out to make the decision, and they remained indifferent even when so many people scolded them. It's a good thing that you didn't marry into it, otherwise you would have jumped into a fire pit."

Xie Lingxi didn't care, but asked back.

"How are my father and brother? And my good second uncle and my good sister, how do they react?"

Speaking of this, the maid put on a happy expression again, or rather, an expression of gloating.

"The Marquis and the Crown Prince didn't react much. They shouted out Xiao Yusheng's crimes as planned and then waited quietly. On the contrary, the Second Master and Xie Ruyu looked grumpy."

"However, the Second Master is timid and doesn't dare to scold the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion. He has been complaining that Xiao Yusheng doesn't know what's good for him and can't be a man anymore. He doesn't protect his only child well and even teaches Xie Ruyu a lesson. He wants Xie Ruyu to teach Xiao Yusheng a lesson after entering the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion."

"He also said that with this child in hand, no one would dare to do anything to Xie Ruyu after she entered the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion. I just thought it was funny when I heard it. The Second Master really takes himself too seriously."

The mockery on the maid's face faded a little, and her tone became much more serious when she spoke of Xie Ruyu.

"Xie Ruyu, on the other hand, was also very angry, but she held back and didn't say anything, nor did she complain. She just waited quietly, but she didn't stop the Second Master from complaining, which obviously meant she agreed with what the Second Master said."

"She should be thinking that she will meet the Xiao family members every day when she enters Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion. She doesn't want to offend her future parents-in-law and husband. But I just watched her for a while and Xie Ruyu's arrogance is gone."

The maid curled her lips in disdain.

"Before she came here, wasn't she always so cocky? Did she think that becoming the young lady of the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion was a sure thing? Now it seems that the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion doesn't think highly of her at all and treats her like a plague!"

"You still want to be the young lady of the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion? Don't you know your own weight? Bah, you are shameless! You deserve it!"

The little maidservant became more and more excited as she spoke, and her tone was full of indignation for her young mistress.

Xie Lingxi listened without stopping her. After the maid finished speaking and calmed down a little, Xie Lingxi sneered.

"Isn't this what she deserves? Forget about that. Go and invite my brother over. I have something to say to him."

The maid didn't know what the young lady wanted to do, but she always listened to her, and she seemed like a different person since the young lady broke off the engagement and returned home.

Maybe she was provoked by that stinky man Xiao Yusheng, so she spoke and acted much more decisively.

Anyway, the little maid felt that the young lady had changed a lot.

The young lady used to be very easy to talk to, but after she came back, she became someone that made her a little afraid.

It's not that the young lady has become cruel, but there seems to be a new aura about her -

This aura made the maid feel awed.

This kind of "aura" used to only exist when facing the Marquis. This is not a bad thing. A lady like this makes people feel more at ease than the previous easy-going lady.

After a while, Xie Zhibai came over and got on the carriage directly.

"Lingxi, what's the matter?"

Xie Lingxi looked calm, but what she said made Xie Zhibai frown.

"Brother, do you think the Cheng'en Marquisate will give in so easily? If the information we have inquired is correct, Lord Xiao should not be in the mansion. Now the only one who is in charge is Madam Xiao."

"Although we all think that Madam Xiao is a woman who can't handle things, don't forget that you can't underestimate the enemy. I am also a woman. If Madam Xiao doesn't follow our ideas, our plan may have some twists and turns, or even fail directly."

Xie Zhibai's expression was solemn.

"You are right. Although Madam Xiao is a woman, she has been the wife of the Marquis for so many years. I am afraid she is not that easy to deal with. Moreover, if this matter is not handled properly, it may offend the emperor."

“If Madam Xiao is smart, or has smart people around her, she should be able to figure out our intentions. It depends on whether she can hold on.”

"If she can't hold on, just compromise and cancel the engagement, and carry Xie Ruyu back. If she holds on, or keeps pretending to be dead and refuses to come out, we can't do anything to her."
