The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 408 Don't Mess with the Wrong People

Ning Suchan watched Yu Tingwan pretend to cry with a blank expression, but then snuggled into her arms coquettishly.

Really.

She didn't believe a single word of Yu Tingwan's affected and pretentious words.

Having known each other for so long, how could she not know what kind of person Yu Tingwan was?

If Yu Tingwan isn't even afraid of her, why would she be afraid of Madam Yang?

Even my own mother didn't receive this treatment.

Ning Suqian seemed oblivious to the barely concealed envy in Jia Shan's eyes. She wanted to laugh at Yu Tingwan, but...

My heart is melting from her touch.

She coldly replied to Jiashan: "Heh."

In this chaotic scene, Lu Shiying only dared to lower his head and quickly peel melon seeds.

The old woman behind Jiashan stepped forward.

"Our lady is the mistress of the Grand Tutor's mansion, and was granted the title of First Rank Lady early on due to the Emperor's great favor."

“What is her status, and what is your status, Madam Yang? A person should know their own worth. Even this old servant knows that a higher-ranking official can crush you. Let alone beating you, even if they came to your Yang family to beat you, you would still have to accept it.”

The old woman snorted coldly.

“Even the ladies and gentlemen of our family wouldn’t dare to say a harsh word to our young lady. The Empress Dowager in the palace always keeps her in mind.”

In fact, they didn't even have many chances to speak.

"Your Yang family is quite capable, daring to be so insolent with a lowly old woman!"

She raised her hand and pointed to the trembling old woman from the Yang family on the ground.

"That's a servant who serves Miss Lu. Everyone knows that in this grand mansion, servants speak and act according to their masters' wishes. Don't say you've insulted the wrong person and think it's Miss Lu, so you can just stand there pretending to be innocent."

The old woman knew that Yu Tingwan had gotten into a conflict with Yang Jingshu while riding in the Lu family's carriage.

I wonder how the young lady became friends with Lu Shiying.

But just because they rode in the carriage together, the Gu family was determined to protect them.

"Aren't you ashamed? Just because Miss Lu is pretty doesn't mean she has to come into your house and be defiled!"

"The princesses in the palace who are not yet betrothed are all beautiful. Why don't you Yang family run to the Emperor to snatch them away?"

"What is a concubine? In the end, she's just a servant. If you really have the guts to open your mouth, while Old Master Lu is all the rage in the court, your Yang family would be starving somewhere!"

The old woman scoffed, "What's wrong?"

"Just because the Yang family said they'd mistaken someone, does that mean our girl has to suffer in silence? Is the Great Jin Dynasty surnamed Yang or something?"

These few words carry immense weight.

Ke Jiashan showed no intention of stopping them.

Are we allowed to have Yang family lackeys curse people?
Madam Yang's expression changed.

If this gets out... the people in the palace will probably eat her alive.

"That's a really serious statement."

Yang Jingshu also hurriedly spoke up, "My mother is, after all, a noblewoman of the imperial court. How can you take action against her based on the general's wife's one-sided story?"

"Now they're accusing my brother of coveting the princess."

"I am, after all, the royal daughter-in-law chosen by the Emperor. Everyone says that the Gu family is a scholarly family and values ​​right and wrong the most. Just because she is a daughter who was finally found, does that mean we can be so indiscriminate in judging right and wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Yang knew things were over. Anxiety surged within her; she gave Yang Jingshu a warning look and pulled her behind her.

"Jing Shu is impatient and still immature, please bear with her, Madam Grand Tutor."

Jiashan narrowed his eyes and smiled.

She's never been a good-tempered person; she does everything according to her mood. It's just that over the years she's cultivated her character and become too lazy to argue with others.

She said sarcastically, "Royal daughter-in-law? Then I certainly wouldn't dare offend her."

The next moment, she raised her hand and slapped Madam Yang again without saying a word.

"Snapped!"

It is crisper and more pleasant to the ear.

Yang Jingshu: ? ? ?

She was so frightened she didn't dare say a word. Jia Shan's hand ached from hitting her, and he slowly rubbed it, his tone chillingly cold: "Everyone says Madam Yang is blessed with three sons and one daughter. But why do you only care about giving birth and not about raising them?"

"Do you think you should have been hit?"

"I hit you, and you didn't even get angry, so why is she jumping out to lecture me? What a big mouth she has. Look at her, she hasn't even married into the family yet, and she's already acting like a prince's consort."

The old woman said, "I saw it. This mother and daughter are truly laughable. If we don't believe what the young lady says, are we going to believe a stranger like her?"

"Don't say our girl is weak. Even if she lies through her teeth and says the water is black, our lady will find a way to make the water really black."

Yang Jingshu: !!!

She was so angry that she went to see Yu Tingwan, the one who started it all.

Yu Tingwan really didn't expect Jiashan to make two unexpected moves, and secretly opened her eyes wide to look in this direction.

Unlike when she was a child and had someone to back her up, she didn't make faces at Yang Jingshu to annoy her. Instead, she more blatantly reached out and grabbed the fruit that Lu Shiying had peeled, stuffing it into her mouth.

Click, click, click.

Like a hamster, its mouth was stuffed full, and it was eating with great relish.

Jiashan didn't think it was a big deal.

What's wrong with her daughter eating something?
Even Ning Suchan, who values ​​rules and etiquette the most, didn't think it was a big deal.

Even her mother-in-law has no objections, so who would dare to?
Madam Yang: "This..."

She was furious, but she didn't dare to fight back.

"The matter that happened today is, in fact..."

It was interrupted.

The old woman said, "It's all Miss Yang's fault."

"Crunch crunch".

“If Miss Yang hadn’t gone out, none of this would have happened. Did she have to take this route and run into our young lady just because she went out?”

"Even if it wasn't your fault first, if our young lady just didn't like your carriage and wanted to crash into it, you would have no choice but to accept it, understand?"

That's really unreasonable.

Yu Tingwan stopped clicking and was stunned.

Oh... I didn't know it could be done like this.

Unlike his previous harsh words, Jia Shan smiled when he looked at Yu Tingwan.

Her voice was exceptionally gentle.

"Yaoyao, there's something wrong with you, Mother..."

She quickly changed her form of address: "I should also mention it."

"Next time you're going to crash, remember to get off the carriage beforehand, otherwise it'll be very dangerous."

At this moment, Ning Suchan finally spoke up.

She and Jiashan are completely different in temperament.

His tone was very indifferent.

He didn't even look at the Yang family mother and daughter when he spoke.

"Some time ago, the Yang family held a banquet, and the invitation was sent to the Wei family, but I returned it."

"As far as I know, no one from the Gu family has come forward either."

She said coldly, "No one dares to say a word."

"But if one day the Wei family holds a banquet, not only will you, the Yang family, not come even if you don't attend, but you will also be isolated by the aristocratic families of the capital. However, I also want to make it clear to you that if that day ever comes, we will not send an invitation to your Yang family."

"The truth that your mother never understood in her entire life, Miss Yang, has it yet?"

She showed no intention of listening to Yang Jingshu's response.

"Your Yang family may be prominent in the eyes of others, but what are you in the eyes of us first-class meritorious families?"

She said slowly, "Whether she's the daughter of the Gu family, the young mistress of the Duke of Shun's mansion, or Wei Zhao's wife, she can do whatever she wants in the capital. Even if she causes the sky to collapse, there will be people vying to fix it for her. Do you understand?"

"But you guys can't do it."

"When you don't have enough power to bully others, it's best to keep a low profile, otherwise who knows if you might offend someone you shouldn't."
