But she clearly saw Gu Tingzhi turn aside, looking as if he didn't want to get involved, so she hesitated again.

She didn't really want to die.

And even if you reduce the force, it will still hurt.

Damn Gu Tingzhi, he really raised her in vain, as he had to watch her hit her head against the pillar.

But she had already made up her mind, with several pairs of eyes staring at her, and it seemed unreasonable for her not to do something.

She looked at her youngest son, Gu Yanzhi. Although he was a little far away from the pillar, she should be able to catch up if she slowed down.

She raised her youngest son personally and he was always sweet-spoken and filial.

Thinking about it, Liu made up her mind, aimed her aim, and was about to exert her strength, but she watched helplessly as her youngest son Gu Yanzhi jumped several times and moved away from the pillar...

He also looked like he was afraid of not being able to catch up.

Her heart tightened and she braked hastily, but she had been pampered for many years and was obese, so she had lost control of her body and finally fell headfirst at Pei Jiuniang's feet.

"Ouch, ouch, it hurts, it hurts so much, someone come quickly, help me up..."

Liu felt as if her waist was about to break. She didn't care who was standing next to her. She grabbed the other person's hand and tried to get up, but the pain was so severe that she couldn't use any strength.

When she felt the pain, her temper became a little bad, and her words became sarcastic, "You have no sense of taste, be careful or I will peel off your skin."

Pei Jiuniang was just about to bow when she heard Liu's scolding. Her face suddenly turned dark. She didn't know what she was thinking about. She retreated in fear while speaking hurriedly.

"Mother, I am so embarrassed. How could you give me such a great gift?"

Having said that, he had already retreated three steps away.

The completely dependent Liu slid down to her knees again, crying out "ouch, ouch" non-stop, and banging her head heavily on the ground. It didn't look like she was performing a great ceremony.

The maids who served Liu remembered that every time Liu was held accountable by her mother-in-law, she liked to kneel down and kowtow, especially in front of outsiders. Liu once said, "Let people see how the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion tortured her."

But this trick hasn't been used for many years. Could it be that the old lady is using it again in order to force the marquis to reprimand Pei?

Thinking of this, the old maids didn't dare to help the person.

A few young maids didn't understand the deep meaning and wanted to go, but were stopped by a few old maids.

To cooperate, the old maid even said to Pei with a stern face, "Madam Hou, our old lady never asked you for anything on weekdays. Now that she has given you such a big gift, you are still making trouble. Aren't you afraid that it will get out? It will be bad for your reputation?"

Old Madam Liu's face tightened, and she felt something was wrong.

"I...it wasn't me who made mother kneel. Mother did this on purpose, didn't she? Did you want the Marquis to think that I forced mother to kneel? Mother? You didn't like me and said it directly. You even divorced me with just one word from you. How could you treat me like this? If it gets out, I made mother kneel?

Never mind, mother just wanted to force me to send Gu Xijue, whom mother values, to the Wang family to study. But mother, the Wang family is now at odds with us. Even if Xijue is sent there, can he really learn…"

Pei Jiuniang saw that Liu was really willing to risk her life to force her to get the quota back.

If she didn't do as she was told, it would seem somewhat unfilial.

What's more, the relationship between the Wang family and the Marquis's Mansion is strained, and the higher-ups have always been worried.

At this time, it would always be beneficial for the Marquis' Mansion to bow its head first.

Thinking of this, she pretended to be embarrassed again, "But I had already said it firmly at that time, I can't bring myself to say it."

Hearing this, Liu's eyes widened and she said hurriedly, "You don't have to show up in person. Just write a visiting card and explain the situation. I'll do the rest for you."

"In that case, I will fulfill mother's wish. But I have to say this: even if I can enter the Wang family school, if they don't really teach me, then mother, please don't blame me again."

Hearing this, Liu always felt uneasy, but she quickly dispelled her doubts, thinking that Pei Jiuniang must have said this on purpose.

Seeing that she had finally managed to control Pei Jiuniang and make her soften her heart, Liu became proud again.

I thought that Xijue's problem had been solved, but Yuzhi...

Although she was also ashamed of Yuzhi's behavior, she was her granddaughter after all, and judging from the way she was crying so sadly, she must have realized her mistake.

Originally, she thought that Yuzhi could not be wrong because she had been taught by Nanny Kong.

So when Xijue went against her before, she was very angry and blamed him.

Now it seems that it has to be Xijue.

Although Nanny Kong is a good person, she is just a Nanny after all. She only knows the intrigues in the palace. Although these are useful, they cannot replace orthodox education.

Pei Jiuniang, although she looked down on her, Yan Zhi was right. People from the Pei family were always useful.

Instead of spending extra money to hire a female teacher from outside, it is better to let Pei Jiuniang teach.

Thinking about it, Liu said with a stern face, "Nine Lady, although Yuzhi made a mistake, she is still a child after all. I will not protect her, lest you accuse me of not being able to distinguish right from wrong. Since you all say that I can't teach her well, then Nine Lady, you can take her back and beat or scold her as you like."

As she said this, she pushed Gu Yuzhi towards Pei Jiuniang regardless of her crying.

"Go, admit your mistakes to your mother, kneel down and beg for forgiveness. If your mother won't forgive you, you will die on your knees."
