believe it, but he told his mother about it with gusto as if it were true."Isn't that right Sister-in-law, you quickly tell mother, I didn't lie to her."Fang Jinshi helplessly put down her chopsticks...Chapter 1094: Don't Be Impulsive, Sister-in-Law Will Take Care of Them

After Mu arrived, she whispered in her daughter's ear, reminding her that so many people were still watching outside.

The young lady from the Hou family assaulted her own uncle, and Zong Pingkang would definitely not let go of this opportunity to manipulate public opinion.

Yulian instantly calmed down. She had never intended to hit anyone just now; she only wanted to push her uncle away. But the people outside didn't think so.

Thinking about the consequences of this, she felt a chill run down her spine, and even her gaze towards Zong Pingkang became more wary.

From the moment Mu appeared, Zong Pingkang's eyes lit up.

"Brother and sister, long time no see."

Sōng Pingchuan, who was left on the side, also moved slightly, as if trying to pry open a gap in the blanket to take a peek at her. He didn't dare make too much noise for fear of being noticed by Mù Yúnhé.

Actually, Mu Yunhe's attention was now focused on Old Madam Wu and Zong Pingkang. With her son and daughter-in-law away, she felt a sense of impending danger and was extremely nervous.

I didn't even notice that there was someone else on the ground beside me.

"Mother, how did you get out Didn't I tell you to go back and hide first"

Yu Lian still wanted to hide Mu Shi behind her, but Mu Shi pulled away her hand. How could she, as a mother, let her children face everything She should be the one protecting her daughter.

She looked them straight in the eye and asked.

What do you want

Seeing that Lady Wu was still somewhat afraid, but things were different now. She had no connection to the clan anymore, and Lady Wu was no longer her mother-in-law. Behind her was the Marquis's mansion, with many servants and guards within its walls.

As long as she shouted, driving these two people out would be a matter of just a blink of an eye.

At the thought of these, the Mus' suddenly gained a lot of confidence. Facing Zong Pingkang's threat, they were not flustered at all.

"It's simple, we shall also move into the Hou residence. Zongyu must respectfully and diligently support us."

"Our family has only a few members left, we have to stick together like branches of the same tree. Ah Yu just became an official, he'll need trustworthy people to help him manage all sorts of things."

"Who else is more suitable than I, your dear uncle"

Old Madam Wu nodded vigorously from the side.

"Of course, family is more trustworthy and reliable than outsiders. Besides, they can help us out in the future and boost our reputation."

Jade Lotus heard her uncle and grandmother's shameless words and was so angry that her face turned green.

Her older brother still needs her uncle's help Her uncle wouldn't come to cause him trouble.

Mu decisively refused.

"Ayu doesn't need your patronage, and I wouldn't let you stay in the Marquisate."

"If you don't leave right now, I'll have someone come and force you out."

Zong Ping's smile vanished from his face instantly, and his eyes darkened.

"Humph, trying to get rid of us"

He suddenly shouted, "Well, the eldest Miss of Hou Mansion, it turns out you're not innocent after all."

Zong Pingkang shouted while deliberately biting the last few characters and dragging out the sound, he showed a provocative smile to Mu Shi and Zong Yulian.

Yu Lian's face turned pale, her palms clenched tightly.

Back then, she was young and naive, falling into her uncle's trap because of greed. She easily believed Su Yusheng's words and wanted to leave with him.

It was her own foolish act, she admitted. She absolutely couldn't let Uncle think he had a handle on her and could use it to threaten the Hou Mansion!

Therefore, Zong Yulian was prepared for the possibility of her past being exposed and her reputation being damaged.

At worst, she wouldn't marry this life. She could move out of the Hou Mansion and run her own business. That way, she wouldn't burden her elder brother and sister-in-law either.

"So it's you all along Isn't this Uncle Zong When did you get out of prison"

Fang Jinshi's voice clearly rang out from the back of the crowd. As soon as Mu Shi and Yulian saw her appear, their hearts instantly calmed down, as if they had swallowed a reassurance pill.

When the commoners saw the couple of Marquis Wuding, they hurriedly wanted to pay their respects. Marquis Zongyu raised his hand to stop them.

The common people saw that although the Marquis was tall and imposing, he was kind and gentle. They immediately had a good impression of the couple.

When Fang Jinshi mentioned that Ping Kang had just been released from prison, everyone started talking about it.

"Did you hear what the Lady of the Manor said This person just came out of prison."

"Tsk tsk, didn't expect that, he actually has a criminal record. I told you his face looked like someone up to no good."

This kind of person can't be trusted no matter what they say, who knows if there's any truth in their words.

"It's probably that they had their eyes on the Marquis's meteoric rise and are now trying to take advantage of him."

The common people below, one after another, pointed fingers at Zong Pingkang, their words like sharp arrows. He was so angry that his face turned pale.

Fang Jinxiu wanted just this kind of effect.

Back then, Big Aunt's death only landed Uncle Ping in prison for a few years, it was practically a bargain for him.

Fang Jinxiu and Zong Yu walked up the steps. As soon as they appeared, Wu Lao Tai and Zong Pingkang's aura immediately diminished, and their attitude was no longer as arrogant as before.

"Jinxiu, Ayu, are you all ready over there" Mu shi's face was lit with a smile.

Jade Lotus even directly hugged Fang Jinshiu's arm, "Sister-in-law appeared too timely! She saved her again."

"Sister-in-law, you've finally arrived."

Fang Jinshu patted Yu Lian's hand, motioning for her not to be afraid. They had each other, and if she couldn't handle it, there was still A Yu. Taking care of these two people wouldn't take them long at all.

"You, you don't change the subject!"

"This." Zongping Kang pulled Wu Lao Tai forward.

"Don't you dare deny that you're your own grandmother"

"I, am I not your dear uncle"

Then he nudged Old Madam Wu privately and whispered in her ear, "Mother, it's time to begin."

"Oh, dear!"

As soon as Zong Ping issued his command, Lao Tai Wu's tears welled up and she burst into sobs, slumping to the ground with a thump. She patted her thighs and began wailing like she was back in the village, crying for her father and mother.

"Oh, God, please open your eyes!"

"My poor old bones, I worked hard to raise all these grandchildren, and in the end they are all heartless ingrates. Not a single one is willing to give this old woman a bite to eat!"

"This is forcing my grandmother out to beg for food, forcing me to die!"

"Old man, you left too early. No one supports me now. My grandson has become successful and turned his back on me."

"What use is being a high official if you're an unfilial ingrate"

Most people are accustomed to sympathizing with the weak. If Old Lady Wu and Zong Pingkang continue to be aggressive, public opinion will turn against the seemingly wronged Hou Mansion.

Now, Old Madam Wu was crying on the ground, her tears and snot flowing freely. She called Zong Yu a white-eyed wolf, placing the blame of unfilial piety on his head, positioning herself as the victim. The commoners immediately began to sympathize with them.

"This old woman's clothes are tattered and worn, she really does look quite pitiful."

After all, she's the biological grandmother, and now that she's a countess, it's only natural to support her elders.

"You're right, it would be too unreasonable of Marquis Wuding to turn people away like that. He'd have a heart of stone."

Yulian's face turned green with anger upon hearing these words. How could these commoners be such fence-sitters, siding with them one moment and showing concern for Granny and Uncle the next

Are they all blind Can't they see that his grandma is acting

From a young age, she had used this tactic countless times in front of them. Every time she pulled it off, their family would either be poorer or missing food and other essentials.

My own life is becoming unbearable, and I'm still being exploited by her.

Yulian wanted to go forward and pull up Lady Wu, telling the people at the gate that she was faking it, acting.

Fāng Jǐnxiù grabbed her.
