Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

After she was banished to the cold palace in her previous life, she really wanted to ask her good grandmother why her father, although not her biological father, was raised by her, so he became so cruel in the end.

Her father and mother are extremely filial to her and have raised her for so many years, so why don't they have any feelings for her at all?

When you wake up in the middle of the night, have you ever touched your conscience?

Unfortunately, the old woman never came to the cold palace to see her once.

Until her death, she could not figure out how the first wife had offended her and the second wife.

To let them be so deliberate in harming them.

When they arrived at Songhe Hall, the old lady sat down on the armchair and glanced coldly at the people in front of her.

Li Shuangwan followed his father, mother and others to kneel down and kowtow to the old lady.

Li Yuanming held a low-ranking official position and was still in the government office. Even if his grandmother returned home, he could not take leave and come back at will.

The old lady straightened her back, her right hand holding the Buddhist beads rested on the Eight Immortals Table, her thumb rolling over the beads one by one, her left hand resting on her knee, her eyes sweeping across everyone inch by inch.

Her triangular eyes suddenly darkened when she saw Li Shuangwan and Li Yuanqiao kneeling in the second row.

"You are so disheveled and untidy! You just went out to greet me like this. You have brought shame to our Zhenguo Mansion!"

Li Shuangwan raised his head and was about to refute, but was blocked by Li Huaiying's body.

He kowtowed and said, "Yes, mother was right in teaching me. It is my son who failed to teach me well."

The old lady looked mean: "Humph, you are indeed responsible as a father!"

Zhu Anhe knew that the old lady had always been prejudiced against her children, and couldn't help but defend them, "Mother, the two children were just practicing martial arts in the backyard and didn't have time to wash up. How can you blame them?"

The old lady glanced at Zhu Anhe and said, "Why, Zhu, are you blaming me for not informing you in advance? Have you, the daughter of the Supreme Court official, been wronged?"

"I dare not. I am the mother of these two children, so I must speak for them. After all, when my second brother ran out to see you while getting dressed just now, you didn't say a word to him about his indecency."

The old lady's gaze paused on Li Huaiyi for a moment. There were still two buttons buttoned incorrectly.

His face turned slightly cold.

Li Huaiyi hurriedly straightened his clothes.

"Hey, sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? I just changed into something decent because I knew my mother was coming. Why are you bringing this up on me?"

Zhu Anhe didn't want to say more. Whatever the truth was, weren't all the people in this mansion deaf and blind?

Mrs. Xu said with a smile, "Yes, sister-in-law, our second wife is not like your first wife. Good clothes and jewelry are naturally worn on important days. How can we wear new clothes every day? It's also because I am useless as a wife and don't have such a rich dowry like you, sister-in-law."

Li Shuangwan snorted coldly: "Second Aunt did speak the truth. You are really useless. Unlike my grandmother, who was born into an imperial merchant family, she let my mother bring 70% of her dowry."

"And the people my grandmother chose for my mother were good at business. 70% of the dowry was in their hands. It became more and more profitable, and it has already exceeded the initial amount by more than double."

"No, your second aunt's family has become a poor family."

Xu's face looked quite ugly. She was not born in a high-class family. Not only was the dowry her parents gave her pitifully meager, but she also had to often take things from the Duke's Mansion to support her parents.

Not to mention providing her with capable personnel.

Over the years, she took half of the good things given to them by the eldest wife to her parents' home.

The old lady's expression was very ugly, and her eyes were fixed on Li Shuangwan's face.

"Keep your head up."

Everyone looked up.

"I'm talking about Li Shuangyan! Raise your head and let me take a good look at you. How can a person from Daliang become the second daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion in Northern Jin? And now she's even speaking nonsense in front of the elders. The daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion is not such an unruly and uneducated thing!"

Li Huaiying hurriedly said, "Mother, Duke Shu of Daliang did pick up Yanyan outside Jingxiu Temple eighteen years ago, and the son of Duke Shu's mansion can testify to this."

"Hmph!" the old lady snorted coldly.

"When you and Zhu came back with the child, you told me clearly that the child was dead! How can you take a foreign boy's words seriously? How old is he? How old is Ah Wan? He is still a child, how can he testify? It's ridiculous!"

Li Huaiying didn't dare to stand up after hearing this. He knelt a few steps and said hurriedly, "Mother, there is more than this. Yanyan has the same birthmark on her wrist as Wanwan. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all the officials who attended the palace banquet have seen it and can testify that Yanyan is indeed the bloodline of the eldest branch of my Li family."

The old lady slammed her palm on the table and said, "Speaking of this, I haven't settled the score with you yet! Have you learned all the rules I taught you?"

She pointed a finger at Li Shuangyan, her face was ugly and her face was livid: "If she is really the blood of my Zhenguo Mansion, a girl in the boudoir, but she exposes her arms to everyone, what is the difference between her and the prostitutes in the brothel who show their bodies to their patrons."

"How dignified it is, what a dignified figure it is!"

She slapped her face heavily. "This little bitch has brought disgrace to our Zhenguo Mansion! If I hadn't heard such unbearable rumors, why would I have come all the way to Shengjing!"

When Zhu Anhe heard this, she was so angry that she almost passed out and tears immediately burst out of her eyes. The daughter that she and Lao Ying held in their hearts was actually humiliated by this old woman.

Disgusting!

"Mother, your daughter-in-law is Yanyan's mother. There is no mother who doesn't recognize her own child! She is my daughter, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion! You are the elder, how can a grandmother say this about her granddaughter!"

It's really too much to compare your granddaughter to a prostitute.

Even an outsider wouldn't say that.

Li Shuangwan stood up, and Li Yuanqiao was anxious to pull her down to kneel down again, but she pushed him away.

She walked towards the old lady step by step, as if she had walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, with murderous aura that could not be concealed.

As soon as this old woman returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, she came to find her and picked trouble with their eldest wife. She really gave her face!

She didn't even think about it, without parents, relying on the second wife and her good son, could she live such a decent life?

"The old lady wanted my parents to produce evidence to prove that I am their daughter, but she also refused to allow them to use the most powerful evidence to prove it."

"Oh, old lady, your words are so incoherent. Don't you find your words ridiculous?"

"Or is it that the old lady has a sharper eye than all the civil and military officials in the court? You just say you don't recognize the facts that everyone has recognized?"

"I just showed a small part of my arm, how come I look like an actor in a brothel! The old lady is well-informed, she often sees actors in brothels, I, Li Shuangyan, have really opened my eyes today!"
