Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 553: Madam Wen's Slap

Wenfu.

Seeing Wen Ruyue kneeling on the ground, Mrs. Wen felt something was wrong.

"Father, Mother, Yue'er is still young..."

"She's still young? She's already twenty years old and she's still young..."

Madam Wen roared.

"How many things have you concealed? Why did that old marquis... go to your aunt's courtyard so late at night?"

She was breathing heavily, and her fingers were trembling as she pointed at Wen Ruyue.

"Kiragi...what exactly is going on? How long are you going to keep this secret from us?"

Old Master Wen's face also turned livid, and he looked at Wen Ruyue and shouted harshly.

Wen Ruyue lowered her head in fear and dared not speak.

She was afraid that if she said something wrong, her grandmother would not let her go.

Seeing that Wen Ruyue still kept her head down and didn't speak, Old Man Wen completely lost his patience.

"Someone, go get Qiu'er and torture her. I don't believe she won't tell the truth."

When Wen Ruyue heard that Mr. Wen was going to torture Qiu'er, she became scared.

Because she knew that Qiu'er would definitely not be able to withstand the torture.

Besides, she would need Qiu'er to go out of the house to do something for her later.

"Grandfather, please don't punish Qiu'er. Just let your granddaughter say it."

After all, old ginger is still spicy.

Although Wen Ruyue had thought of various ways to escape since last night.

But he still lost to Mr. Wen.

"It's like this, my aunt didn't agree with what my granddaughter proposed, so I wanted to make a scene and let the old marquis bring up the matter..."

Before Wen Ruyue could finish speaking.

Old Madam Wen had already walked up to her and slapped her hard in the face.

"You evil creature, how can you threaten the old marquis? Are you really that brave? Who gave you the courage?"

Mrs. Wen was unhappy to see her mother-in-law beating her daughter.

She walked up to Wen Ruyue, pulled her up from the ground and held her in her arms.

"Mother, Ruyue just said that she did that for the sake of the mansion. Why did you hit her?"

"Do you believe everything she said? In the end, she was just doing it for herself..."

Old Madam Wen was so angry that she was gasping for breath.

If Madam Wen hadn't been holding Wen Ruyue, she would have gone up and slapped her twice more.

"Let me make this clear. If the Marquis's family really cuts off ties with our family, you won't have to live."

Although Old Madam Wen scolded her daughter every day, calling her an unfilial daughter.

But she was also very clear in her heart.

If it weren't for this marriage to the Marquis's Mansion, their Wen Mansion would be nothing in the capital.

That's why she reacted so strongly after hearing about this.

"You guys step back first. I'll discuss this matter with your father and see if there's any way to remedy the situation."

Mr. Wen also wanted to beat Wen Ruyue.

This eldest granddaughter, who once made him proud, really disappointed him.

Unfortunately, due to emotional reasons, he couldn't do it.

He felt that he had to find a way to appease the old marquis.

Not to mention that Mr. and Mrs. Wen were extremely anxious.

Here, Madam Wen and Wen Ruyue returned to Ruyue Garden together.

"Mom, please go back first. Your daughter wants to be alone for a while."

Wen Ruyue knew without guessing that her mother would start another long sermon.

From her childhood to adulthood, no one in the mansion was willing to criticize her.

So her grandmother slapped her today and she is feeling aggrieved now.

She doesn't want to listen to her mother's nagging.

Also, she had a plan in her mind, waiting for her to implement.

This matter needs to be planned quickly.

If we wait until Li Wansheng leaves the capital.

Even if she has thousands of plans, they are of no use.

Although Madam Wen was protecting Wen Ruyue just now, she actually understood the situation in her heart.

If the Marquis's Mansion really broke off the relationship with their Wen Mansion, her mother-in-law would be so angry.

She was well aware of her mother-in-law's methods; she was a cruel and ruthless person.

It's not impossible that she took Yue'er's life.

She also knew that Yue'er drove her away because she didn't want her to nag her.

So she didn't go into the yard, but stood at the gate and talked to Wen Ruyue.

"You've gotten into such a big trouble this time, and I don't know what the next steps will be. I'll discuss this with your father when he comes back."

Wen Ruyue was extremely upset.

The slap she received from her grandmother just now had already made her lose all face.

Now that her lies had been exposed and she had been beaten, she felt very upset.

Her mother is still in front of her, nagging and annoying her.

"My daughter understands. Please go back, mother. I won't see you off."

After Wen Ruyue finished speaking, she walked into her own yard without caring about her mother's unhappy expression.

If it weren’t for the noble upbringing she received since childhood, Wen Ruyue really wanted to curse.

From yesterday till now, nothing has gone well for her.

All of them wanted Wen Ruyue to let it go, but it was not that easy.

Mrs. Wen was also very angry when she saw Wen Ruyue like this.

It's clear from the look of this child that he doesn't want to give up.

Wen Ruyue walked into her bedroom.

Just now, Qiu'er had finished her meal and I wanted to go over and serve her.

Who knew that just as she walked into the old lady's yard, Wen Ruyue just came out of the old lady's room.

So Qiu'er came back with Wen Ruyue.

"Qiu'er, do you still remember the coffin shop I told you about before..."

Wen Ruyue sat at the table, drinking tea and asking Qiu'er.

She had just eaten a plate of snacks in her grandmother's yard and hadn't even had a sip of tea yet.

As a result, she was kicked out by her grandfather.

"Miss, I remember..."

Qiu'er looked at Wen Ruyue hesitantly.

"Do you want me to go there?"

Qiu'er knew very well what the people in that coffin shop did.

"Well, it's not convenient for me to leave the house now. You go out and find them. Ask them to find out the whereabouts of Li Wansheng."

Wen Ruyue thought about it and added another sentence.

"It's best to have them keep an eye on Li Wansheng when he's alone. No matter how much money they ask for, they must find out the truth about this matter for me."

"Then...how much banknotes should I bring?"

Wen Ruyue thought about it for a moment.

"Take 500 taels of silver notes with you first. If it's not enough, come back and get more."

Qiu'er was startled.

"Miss, I dare not carry so many banknotes on my body alone."

She was afraid that it would be stolen or robbed...

She believed that the lady in front of her would expose her skin.

"Or, go to the front yard and find that Wang San and ask him to go with you."

In fact, Wen Ruyue was also worried about letting Qiu'er take so much money out alone.

Wang San in the front yard was the companion brought by Madam Wen.

They came here as a family at that time and were very loyal to Madam Wen.

Now Wang San is Madam Wen's coachman, driving the carriage specifically for her and Wen Ruyue.

Qiu'er obediently walked out to find Wang San.

Wen Ruyue continued to sit in the room, thinking about her next plan.

As for the young man who is being plotted against by Wen Ruyue, he is now very busy.
