The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Chapter 64 I Can't Afford to Lose This Person

"Little sister, you know that the mansion is no longer a marquis's mansion. Your relationship with the son of the Duke of Zhenguo is simply marrying above your station... The Jiang family would never do such a shameful thing, so don't expect me to help you with this matter."

Jiang's words were like a sharp knife that pierced Zhao Yuting's heart, making her face turn blue and white.

She did such a shameful thing, but she never regretted it at all.

If she doesn't go looking for the prince today, she will never have any chance in the future.

"We are a family after all, how can you be so heartless?" Zhao Yuting's face was full of grievance, like a pear blossom wet by the rain, she looked at Jiang pitifully and said.

Wang wanted to conceal the matter, but her own ability was limited, so she thought of asking her second daughter-in-law for help, but she flatly refused.

"Mom, I'm pregnant now and my body feels heavy. You don't want me to have a miscarriage because of my little sister, right?" Jiang said as she gently stroked her belly that looked like a watermelon.

"So is this the end of Yuting's marriage?"

Wang sighed and said that although she felt sorry for her grandson, she was also very concerned about Zhao Yuting's affairs and was worried about the future happiness of her little daughter.

However, faced with the reality of the dilemma, Wang felt torn.

If Jiang was forced to accept this marriage, it would not only cause her strong opposition, but might even lead to family disputes and conflicts.

Once Jiang starts making trouble, the family will inevitably fall into chaos and life will become a mess.

Thinking of these consequences, Wang's face became increasingly gloomy. She secretly resented her disappointing second son for being so afraid of his wife and becoming a complete wife slave.

"Mom, didn't I tell you? This matter still depends on my sister-in-law!" Jiang looked at the changes in Wang and Zhao Yuting's expressions and sneered in her heart. She took in all their expressions and was full of contempt and disdain for them in her heart.

Zhao Yuting, a young girl who has not yet married, is actually flirting with the son of the Duke of Zhenguo. How can this be tolerated? If such behavior happened in the Jiang family, there would be absolutely no possibility of her getting married. She would be directly thrown into the ancestral hall and imprisoned in the ancestral hall, and she would never see the light of day again in her life.

Zhao Yuting did such a shameless thing, and she still wanted her to help deal with it? Jiang felt her face burning, as if she had been slapped hard several times. She felt extremely ashamed because she felt that this was simply a great humiliation.

"My eldest sister-in-law is the mistress of the family after all. She has more connections than us, and her status and influence in the social circle are much higher than ours."

"Besides, although our mansion is no longer a marquis' mansion, my sister-in-law is a third-rank imperial lady appointed by the emperor himself. What a noble status! Even if the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion does not consider our Zhao family's face, it will certainly consider my sister-in-law's third-rank imperial lady's face. Maybe this matter can be accomplished."

After hearing this, Wang was suddenly enlightened, and Zhao Yuting also saw the light in an instant.

Yes! Why didn't she think that Xue Jinhua was more important than Jiang, and how could the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion not give this face to the third-rank imperial lady?

As long as my sister-in-law is willing to help, perhaps this marriage can really be successful.

"Okay! Go and invite the eldest lady in." Although Wang was unwilling, she still ordered her maid.

Jiang was speechless and she really couldn't muster any good feelings towards her mother-in-law.

So she stood up and prepared to leave, "Mother, I am pregnant now, and my body is getting heavier. It is getting late, and I am a little sleepy. If there is nothing important in the future, please don't wake me up late at night." After saying that, Jiang turned and left the room.

Seeing Jiang leave, Zhao Yuting stamped her feet in anger, then turned to look at Wang and said, "Mom, look at her, how can she be a daughter-in-law? I think if you don't teach her a lesson, she will probably climb over your head!"

However, Wang ignored Zhao Yuting's words and looked at her with a sad face. "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. You should think about how to solve your own problems first."

When Zhao Yuting heard this, a smile immediately appeared on her face. "Mom, of course I know. As long as I can successfully marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and become their prince's consort, then what do I have to worry about? By then, our family will live a good life." Thinking of this, Zhao Yuting's eyes flashed with excitement.

Then, she took Wang's hand and said coquettishly, "Mother, you have to show your dignity as a mother-in-law later. You must not give in easily. You must make her agree to this matter."

Not long after, Xue Jinhua came in. Just then, Jiang was about to leave the room.

Since the unpleasant incident last time, the relationship between them has become a little subtle. Therefore, the two of them simply nodded to each other, and then Xue Jinhua walked straight into the house.

As soon as she entered the room, Xue Jinhua saw Wang sitting on the bed and Zhao Yuting standing beside her.

Wang asked directly, "I guess you already know about Yuting's situation?"

Xue Jinhua glanced at Zhao Yuting, only to see her looking up proudly with disdain in her eyes. So she smiled and replied, "Mom, I was woken up by my little sister's earth-shaking crying in the middle of the night, so I came to see what was going on. I just entered this room, so how could I have the opportunity to know the specific situation of my little sister?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yuting immediately jumped up and accused loudly: "I think you didn't come here to help me, but to laugh at me! You obviously know my situation, but you are still pretending to be stupid here. You are such a hypocrite!"

Xue Jinhua raised her lips slightly, revealing a light smile. Her voice was as clear and pleasant as a mountain spring: "Oh? Really? I'm actually quite interested in what you did that made you think I would make fun of you."

Zhao Yuting's face flushed red like a ripe apple. Although she had been a little clever, it was not something worth showing off. For a moment, she felt like she had something stuck in her throat and stammered. How could she easily say such a thing?

Seeing this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but chuckle and said teasingly, "Since you can't explain it, I guess it's not a big deal. It's late at night, so don't cry, lest you disturb others' sweet dreams."

Zhao Yuting was so angry that she almost exploded. She couldn't help but complain to Wang: "Mom, listen to what she said! Every word hurts my heart!"

Wang then opened her red lips and said, "Okay, the two of you should stop arguing."

Then, she turned to look at Xue Jinhua, her face showing difficulty, and said in a trembling voice: "Your little sister was sent back by the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion today. Although it is late... there are still many people who witnessed this. How do you think this matter should be handled?"

"Mother, what do you mean by that? Do I need to take care of this matter? Besides, this matter should be the responsibility of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. If they are really interested, they will come to ask for marriage."

If it were that easy, why would Wang worry so much?

"But what if they don't come?" Wang said solemnly, "Will Zhao Yuting's reputation be ruined?"

"Since ancient times, it has always been the man who has taken the initiative to propose marriage. I have never heard of any girl rushing to the door." Xue Jinhua refused without hesitation: "Mother, you can let go of your face, but I really can't afford to lose this person."

Zhao Yuting was immediately furious, like a powder keg that had been lit, "Sister-in-law, I think you rejected me on purpose because you were jealous of me!"

"Me? Jealous of you?" Xue Jinhua seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and couldn't help but let out a harsh sneer, "Little sister, tell me, why am I jealous of you?"

"Now that our Zhao family has fallen, and my eldest brother is no longer the marquis he used to be, if I can marry the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, I will become his lady in the future. And you must be jealous of the good marriage I have, so you don't want to see me live better than you, so you don't want to agree, right?" Zhao Yuting had a sneer on her lips, and looked at Xue Jinhua with eyes as sharp as a knife.

"Oh... So little sister, you also know that the Zhao family has been defeated?" Xue Jinhua's tone was full of sarcasm, as if she was mocking a sparrow who was ignorant of the immensity of the world.

"Sister-in-law, please don't beat around the bush here. You must help me with this matter." Zhao Yuting said as if it was a matter of course.

"It's not a bad idea to help you, but I have a condition." Xue Jinhua looked at her with a smile, as if she was looking at a lamb to be slaughtered.

Zhao Yuting was overjoyed. As long as she was willing to give in and her marriage could be successful, she didn't care what conditions were proposed. She said hurriedly, "I promise you, tell me now."

"Little sister, don't you need to think about it carefully?" Xue Jinhua reminded kindly, her tone sounding like she was coaxing an innocent child.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to go back on your word?" Zhao Yuting looked at her warily, like a frightened rabbit.

Xue Jinhua's lips curled up slightly, outlining a hint of a smile, "Of course not, I just hope that after my little sister gets married, unless my mother passes away, she will never step into the mansion. I can't afford to lose face like this."
