Previously, she forbade me to see my mother and sisters, but now that I've caused such a big disaster, she shamelessly dragged me along to apologize!

Having such a family to marry into is truly the worst luck imaginable!

However, despite her inner complaints, Fu Hui, now part of the Fan family, knew the principle of shared prosperity and shared loss, so she reluctantly stepped forward and gave Su Xin a slight bow.

"Sister, please inform the Marquis again that our whole family is waiting at the door for him to grant us an audience!"

"..." As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. Su Xin made no attempt to hide her disgust for the other members of the Fan family, but facing this very beautiful and dignified young woman in front of her, and with such a gentle attitude, she suddenly felt as if she had punched cotton!

Even if she wanted to get angry, she couldn't! Especially seeing Fu Hui's pitiful appearance, even Su Xin, a woman, couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

What a pity! Such a fine woman has fallen into the hands of those good-for-nothings in the Fan family!

Su Xin was very indignant, but she still nodded to Fu Hui, which was considered as her agreement.

After Su Xin left, Fu Hui's mother-in-law quickly came up to her and began praising her profusely.

She showered her with compliments, such as "beautiful inside and out," "capable in crucial moments," and "a truly good wife."

Fu Hui was stunned by what she heard; her mother-in-law was truly fickle!

……

In the main hall of the Marquis's mansion, Wei Tingyu sat in the main seat, looking expressionlessly at the four people kneeling below him.

Mr. Fan and his son Fan Lianghan were bowing their heads, their foreheads hitting the floor.

Although Madam Fan did not speak, she knelt behind the two men, her body trembling uncontrollably.

It's clear that she's the most terrified of the four at this moment!

As for Fu Hui, the beautiful young woman, although she also knelt down respectfully, her body did not tremble at all.

Although he appeared very submissive, his eyes were secretly and curiously observing Wei Tingyu's figure.

As expected of Li Niangzi's daughter, she has guts!

Wei Tingyu sighed inwardly!

Of course, Fu Hui's looks and temperament also caught his eye; she was in no way inferior to the beautiful wives and concubines in his own household! Now, kneeling there pitifully, she was even more endearing to him!

Dou Zhao's position as the head of the household was currently vacant, as she had no intention of joining in the commotion! The other sisters in the family were doing the same, chatting and drinking tea with Dou Zhao in the backyard.

The Fan family came to apologize for what happened during the day, so Wang Yingxue and Dou Ming, who were related to them, were also present.

Wang Yingxue sat in the first chair on the left, while Dou Ming stood behind her without taking a seat.

"What do you all mean by this? Please rise!" Wei Tingyu said, looking down at the four people bowing their heads.

"Your Excellency, please understand! What happened today was absolutely not our intention!" Master Fan trembled violently upon hearing Wei Tingyu's words, but he did not actually get up. Instead, he continued, "It was all because our servants were ignorant and offended Your Excellency's old acquaintance!"

Blaming all the mistakes on the servants below was a common practice in wealthy households. Wei Tingyu was not surprised at all by this reason.

"This is too much for me! Do you expect me to personally help you up?" Wei Tingyu said with a sneer.

However, he was just saying it; he didn't actually intend to get up and help them.

After all, the four of them were already kneeling here when he arrived, so what does it have to do with him? It's not like he forced them to kneel!

Besides, apart from the pitiful Fu Hui right now, Wei Tingyu wouldn't feel sorry for the other three at all!

"No, no! How could I trouble Your Excellency..." Master Fan shook his head repeatedly upon hearing this, then quickly and cautiously stood up. His four families, seeing this, naturally also rose to their feet!

Although they got up, apart from Fu Hui who only lowered her eyes slightly, avoiding eye contact with Wei Tingyu, the other three were still bowing and scraping. Their heads were drooping so low they looked like hunchbacks!

Seeing Fu Hui's performance, Wang Yingxue nodded in satisfaction.

My best friend has been quite successful in raising her daughter over the years! Sure enough, her daughter has a humble yet assertive personality, almost exactly like her mother when she was young!

"Why are you here to apologize?" Wei Tingyu looked at Master Fan and said, "It's not me you've offended, and as for that so-called old acquaintance, there's no way we can talk about it! I don't know Li Niangzi's family at all!"

Chapter 94 The young married woman, Fu Hui, is moved! A mother and daughter have a late-night talk!

“That’s right!” Wang Yingxue nodded and said, “Your in-laws are old acquaintances of mine, but they don’t know the Marquis at all! If Master Fan’s family wants to apologize, they’ve probably come to the wrong person. They should be going to Li Niang!”

"Yes, yes! Madam is right!" Master Fan nodded quickly upon hearing this, "Our family will also go to apologize to Lady Li later! As for that wicked servant who made things difficult for our in-laws, we will definitely punish him severely and make our in-laws feel better!"

"Yes! We will go immediately to invite our in-laws back to Fanfu and treat them well. We will not neglect them again!" Madam Fan nodded repeatedly in assurance.

The Fan family isn't stupid. Although Wei Tingyu said that Li Niangzi's family had no relation to the Marquis's mansion, just looking at Wang Yingxue sitting in the seat of honor in the main hall of the Marquis's mansion, it's clear that she has a very close relationship with the Marquis's mansion.

Furthermore, the fact that she stood up for Li Niangzi in public clearly shows that she would definitely take care of Li Niangzi's affairs!

At this moment, everyone in the Fan family was relieved, realizing that they had indeed come to the right place!

Especially Master Fan thought to himself that his previous decision to come to the Marquis's mansion to apologize before going to see Lady Li seemed to be the right one!

“Alright! In that case, you may take Li Niang back to the Fan residence!” Wang Yingxue nodded. At this moment, she was like the fox in the story of the fox borrowing the tiger’s power, while Wei Tingyu was the tiger. All she had to do was sit there and not say a word.

"If I find out again that your family dares to mistreat Li Niang, I will personally go to the Fan residence to demand an explanation!" Of course, Wang Yingxue added a warning and threat at the end.

"Yes, yes, yes! Don't worry, Madam! We absolutely wouldn't dare, absolutely wouldn't dare!" Master Fan nodded and shook his head repeatedly as he assured him.

"Sister Fu Hui!" Just as the Fan family members were about to leave, Dou Ming suddenly called out and then darted to Fu Hui's side.

"Miss, what is this...?" Fu Hui was taken aback, because she didn't know Dou Ming at all, and she didn't expect him to suddenly call her over!

"I'm getting married in a few days!" Dou Ming blinked, then reached out and took Fu Hui's soft hand. He glanced at Wei Tingyu shyly and said, "I have some things on my mind to tell you, sister!"

“Okay…” Fu Hui blinked, stunned. She could tell that Dou Ming was going to marry the Marquis of Jining in a few days, but what did that have to do with her? What did he want to say to her?

“Although a woman is supposed to follow her husband after marriage, the bond between mother and daughter can never be severed!” Dou Ming mustered his courage and looked at Fu Hui, saying each word carefully, “No matter what the husband’s family demands, there are some things we should stick to! If we disregard even the bond between mother and daughter, how are we any different from beasts?”

Dou Ming's words stunned everyone present!

Wei Tingyu hadn't expected that this little girl would have the courage to lecture her older, married sister.

As for Wang Yingxue, needless to say, seeing her daughter so sensible, her eyes welled up with tears.

Of course, she was not worried that Dou Ming would sever her mother-daughter relationship after marrying Wei Tingyu. She was just gratified that her daughter was so sensible and still cared about her as her mother!

As for the Fan family members, their expressions immediately turned ugly! Because Dou Ming's words were ostensibly meant for Fu Hui, but in reality, they were practically an insult directed at them.

But there was nothing they could do! Forbidding their daughter-in-law from meeting her mother and sisters was something the Fan family had done before! Thinking of this, the Fan father and son glared at Madam Fan in unison!

If it weren't for her constant meddling and causing trouble for her daughter-in-law Fu Hui, none of this would have happened today.

In the end, you can only accept being ridiculed and mocked!

Madam Fan kept her head down, not daring to meet the eyes of her husband and son.

It's unclear whether she was feeling ashamed or genuinely reflecting on her actions, but none of this concerns Wei Tingyu anymore.

The premise is that you shouldn't mess with him! After all, anyone who dares to act recklessly around him never ends well!

“My sister is right!” Fu Hui blinked, then looked a little embarrassed.

She felt guilty about what had happened before, but there was no need for Dou Ming to tell her. She would personally apologize to her mother and sisters!

“I grew up with my mother, while Sister Zhao spent her life on my grandmother’s estate! We sisters weren’t very close, and I was practically an only child!” Dou Ming didn’t know why, but she suddenly felt very close to her sister Fu Hui and said directly, “Sister Fu Hui, you won’t think I’m being nosy, will you?”

"No, no, you're right!" Fu Hui was originally a very well-mannered person, and she felt sorry for such a lovely girl as Dou Ming. Now, thinking about how she lived alone in the Fan family mansion and hadn't seen her sisters and mother for a long time, her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

The two women suddenly found common ground, a scene that made Wei Tingyu roll his eyes inwardly.

It has to be said, female friendships can sometimes be so sudden! Two women who hadn't even exchanged a single word before can inexplicably become as close as best friends!

“Since Sister Ming and I hit it off so well, why don’t you come to our house tomorrow?” Fu Hui smiled and said to Dou Ming, “A woman isn’t so free after she gets married!”

"Okay!" Dou Ming nodded in agreement.

Although she knew that Wei Tingyu wasn't the kind of man who would lock his wives and concubines inside and not allow them to go out, she still needed to have some self-awareness as a married woman in the future!

Going shopping with the sisters in the family to buy some rouge, face powder, or silk fabrics is no problem! But as for playing and having fun with the girls from other families, the opportunities are probably not so many!

Having thought of this, she immediately agreed.

“Ming’er…” Wang Yingxue was a little worried when she heard this, after all, Dou Ming would be officially entering the Marquis’s mansion in just a few days! She didn’t want anything to go wrong at this critical juncture, or even cause any trouble.

After all, there are men in the Fan family! Aren't you, a young girl, afraid of those rumors and gossip?

"I want my brother-in-law to come with me!" However, Dou Ming's next sentence immediately shut down all the reasons Wang Yingxue was about to use to stop her.

Wang Yingxue turned to look at Wei Tingyu, and seeing him smile and nod gently, she said nothing more!

Since the Marquis is willing to go with Dou Ming, he certainly won't believe any more rumors!

There won't be any more problems!

Upon hearing these words, the eyes of the Fan family members immediately lit up.

Madam Fan, in particular, nodded excitedly at Fu Hui, her eyes clearly saying that the matter had been handled beautifully!

After all, what an honor it is to invite the Marquis to one's own residence! Putting aside everything else, which of the Fan family's business partners wouldn't look up to them?

Of course, Fu Hui was the most confused!

Her original intention was simply to invite Dou Ming, a younger sister whom she felt very close to, to visit her home. After all, she believed that her in-laws would definitely bring her mother and sisters to the Fan family home after today.

The courtyard will be much more lively with all the sisters then!

And Wang Yingxue and her mother are such good friends!

If the five sisters can establish a good relationship with Dou Ming, they can inherit the friendship between their mothers in the future.
