After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

Early in the morning, Xiao Yunxi went to Shou'an Hall to pay her respects, and then went to Dong's house with Ruan to attend the housewarming party.

"Madam, this painting of the bright moon and green mountains was created by my father in his early years. I specially brought it to Mr. Dong. I wish him a bright future and great achievements."

Xiao Yunxi's father is a master of painting. His paintings are hard to come by and are worth a fortune.

Madam Dong smiled very gently, "My princess has spent a lot of money, would you mind if the old lady came in?"

"The old lady has caught a cold recently, so I can't come to congratulate you in person. Please forgive me."

Ruan suddenly asked, "Where's Fang'er? Today is such an important day, why isn't she arranging to receive the guests?"

The Dong family invited many old friends to today's housewarming party. As the eldest son and daughter-in-law, Lu Guifang must attend.

Madam Dong replied coldly: "She broke the house rules and is now under house arrest by me."

Ruan said anxiously: "Madam, Fang'er has always been well-behaved, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding."

"Clever?"

Madam Dong sneered.

"I'm afraid the 'well-behaved' of the Zhennan Palace is not the same as the 'well-behaved' of our Dong Mansion!"

"In order to marry a second wife first, Lu Guifang not only did not make any arrangements, but instead threw a tantrum. For such a jealous and unvirtuous daughter-in-law, only house arrest is a very light punishment."

After hearing this, Ruan didn't dare to say anything else.

After all, being jealous and unvirtuous is enough to warrant divorce.

Xiao Yunxi listened from the side without interrupting. She felt that given Lu Guifang's personality, there would definitely be more to it than just throwing a tantrum.

Not long after they sat down, a maid hurried over to Old Madam Dong and whispered a few words into her ear.

Her face suddenly turned gloomy. She stood up and made an excuse to the guest that she wanted to change her clothes, then left anxiously.

Xia He whispered in Xiao Yunxi's ear, "Princess, do you want me to go with you and take a look?"

Xiao Yunxi shook her head slightly, fearing that something scandalous had occurred in the Dong Mansion, and that Lu Guifang was probably involved.

Ruan saw Madam Dong leave with a dark face, so she came to Xiao Yunxi and said, "While that old woman is out, let's go and see Fang'er quietly. I'm still a little worried."

Xiao Yunxi nodded, and followed Ruan to leave quietly.

"Lu Guifang, you are so bold that you dare to abuse lynching?!"

"Jiang was a good concubine after all, and she even gave birth to Sister Lu for the boss. Now you actually want to beat her to death!"

"What? Do you think that you can do whatever you want after returning to the capital with the support of the Zhennan Palace? And act like a rich lady in the Dong Mansion?!"

"We, the Dong family, dare not accept a daughter-in-law like you who is unvirtuous and unfilial and has violated the seven grounds for divorce. Go back to the palace with your mother!"

As soon as Xiao Yunxi and Ruan arrived at the gate of Lu Guifang's courtyard, they heard Old Madam Dong trying to send Lu Guifang back to her parents' home.

Ruan quickly covered her mouth and whispered, "Fang'er wants to beat her son-in-law's concubine to death? Is she crazy?"

Then she said dissatisfiedly: "This old woman is too disrespectful to the palace. She scolded Fang'er in front of a group of servants. How can she be the mistress of the house in the future?"

Xiao Yunxi had not expected Lu Guifang to be so bold. She was afraid that the second wife who was about to come into the family had a very important background, which made her completely panic.

Seeing Ruan about to enter the yard, Xiao Yunxi quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Mother-in-law, Madam Dong is very angry now. If you barge in rashly, I'm afraid you will really have to take my elder sister back to the palace!"

Ruan was so scared that she quickly withdrew her foot.

"Mother-in-law, it's this bitch who doesn't respect me. She keeps saying that I, the legal wife, am just a decoration, occupying the toilet without doing anything. When the second wife enters the mansion, she will completely fall out of favor, and by then she will be worse than the lowly servants in the mansion."

"My daughter-in-law was really angry, so I thought of giving her a warning, but I never thought of beating her to death."

Lu Guifang knelt in front of Old Madam Dong, crying with snot and tears, looking so miserable.

The second wife was personally selected by my mother-in-law. I heard that her father and brother were both scholars. Although her family background was ordinary, her brother and her husband were classmates and friends.

Once you get in, you won’t have a place to stand in the future.

Dong Weixian has always been a filial son and has always been cold to me. If my mother-in-law really wants him to divorce her...

Lu Guifang didn't dare to imagine what she would do after being divorced. She was afraid that she would be sent to the Lu family temple to worship Buddha and die.

Madam Dong snorted coldly, "As the legal wife, you naturally have the right to discipline the concubines. But there are so many guests today, what does it look like for you to shout and kill here? Can't you wait until the guests leave before punishing them?"

"If Jiang died in your yard today and the news got out, have you thought about the consequences?"

"Is your head filled with weeds? How stupid!"

"It's just taking a second wife, not marrying a concubine."

"Even if Li came in, she would still have to kowtow to you, offer you tea, visit you every morning and evening, and serve you. Look at what a mess you've made."

"Even if I'm not close to you, I respect you enough. But you're throwing a tantrum, scratching and clawing like a shrew. You don't have the demeanor of a royal daughter at all!"

"Get back to your room right now and copy the Women's Rules and Rules for me fifty times. You can come out only when you have finished copying!"

"As for Jiang, for being disrespectful to the mistress and speaking ill of her, she will be slapped fifty times and grounded for three months!"

Lu Guifang wanted to say something while sobbing, but Hongling behind her pulled her lightly, so she had to shut her mouth unwillingly.

Seeing this, Madam Dong sneered and said, "If you are not satisfied with my punishment, pack up your bags and take your dowry back to the Zhennan Palace."

"I will have Weixian marry Li as his first wife, and your son and daughter will be raised by her!"

These words hit Lu Guifang right in the chest. She turned pale, closed her mouth, stood up tremblingly, bowed, and went back to her room to copy books.

Madam Dong glanced at Jiang who was kneeling beside her and said coldly, "Lu is the legal wife and you are the concubine. If she hits you or scolds you, it is a reward and you should accept it."

"For Sister Lu's sake, I won't bother with you this time. If you do it again, I won't have to use Lu's family, I will beat you to death!"

After dealing with her son's troublesome wives and concubines, Madam Dong walked towards the courtyard gate.

Xiao Yunxi pulled Ruan and hid behind a rockery nearby.

I waited until everyone was far away before I dared to come out.

Ruan wiped the sweat from her forehead, patted her chest, and said in fear: "Fortunately we didn't go in, otherwise we would have been scolded too."

"This old woman is too vicious. My mother-in-law is more gentle."

Xiao Yunxi twitched her lips. Ruan's words were even more poisonous.

"Come on, let's go back to the table quickly before we are discovered by this old woman."

"Aren't you going to go in and see your elder sister?"

Hearing the crackling sounds coming from the yard, I knew Lu Guifang was smashing things.

Ruan sighed, "Fang'er has always been very concerned about her reputation. If we go in now, I'm afraid it will embarrass her even more."

After saying that, she dragged Xiao Yunxi away.
