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

She was not putting out the fire! She was just adding fuel to the fire.

Old Madam Zhou's anger was like a volcano. She could no longer hold back and shouted, "Sister, is this how you discipline your daughter-in-law? You are disrespectful and disrespectful to your elders?"

Old Lady Zhou really wronged Wang. It was not that she didn't want to discipline Jiang, but Jiang was like a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard. She had so many great principles that she couldn't win the argument. Not to mention disciplining Jiang, she would be lucky if she didn't get rid of Jiang's ridicule in a few words.

"Besides, if you can't control one, can't you control the other too?"

It is human nature to bully the weak and fear the strong. After being humiliated by Jiang, Old Lady Zhou wanted to vent her anger directly on Xue Jinhua.

Before Wang could speak, Xue Jinhua stood up and said, "Aunt, since ancient times, it has been the norm for mothers to be kind and children to be filial, but you can't put the cart before the horse."

“Even if you want to be filial, your loving mother must do it first; similarly, even if you want to respect your elders, the elders must do something and be kind to the younger generation.”

"If you rely on your age and want to be arrogant and take advantage of your seniority, not to mention that my sister-in-law is unwilling, I will definitely not be happy about it."

“You you…”

"This aunt is my mother's honored guest. I should entertain her here myself. There is no reason for us, the younger generation, to accompany her all day long."

Before Mrs. Zhou could finish her words, Xue Jinhua interrupted her directly, like a sharp sword piercing Mrs. Zhou's heart, making her feel like the breath she was holding in her throat was stuck and she couldn't spit it out.

"Miss, the Crown Prince is here."

The cherry blossoms appeared at the right time. Xue Jinhua took a quick glance and said, "Aunt, I have something important to do here. I will leave first."

Xue Jinhua had only taken a few steps when she heard the crisp sound of a teacup breaking from inside. The sound was like a sudden thunder, echoing in the air for a long time.

Old Mrs. Zhou was so angry that her eyes turned red as blood. It was bad enough that she suffered bullying at her husband's house, but now she had to endure such humiliation at her sister's house. She was so angry that she wanted to explode on the spot.

"Sister, have you always been living like this, enduring in silence?"

It's fine that the younger daughter-in-law has a strong background, but who is the eldest daughter-in-law? She's just a merchant's daughter, and she dares to show off in front of me?

"What can we do?" Wang couldn't help but sigh. Even if Xue Jinhua didn't have a strong family to support her, her current status was there. Besides, she had a lot of money in her hands. Even she, as a mother-in-law, could only live by her mood.

"By the way, the eldest daughter-in-law's maid just came over and asked, who is here? Did she say that the Crown Prince is here?" After venting for a while, Old Lady Zhou finally regained her senses.

Wang nodded, "That should be the case. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came here to interrogate Xue Jinhua. The second son of the Xue family is still in prison. The Emperor is asking His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to investigate this matter..."

Although she kept talking, Mrs. Zhou had already made her own plans in her heart.

"Sister, you say...if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince takes a fancy to this, will Xue Jinhua also have to kneel down and beg for mercy when she sees it?"

"That's natural..."

Halfway through her words, Wang suddenly shut up as if someone had grabbed her by the neck. Realizing that she had said something wrong, she quickly said, "My dear sister, what are you thinking about?"

"If you go and provoke others, I might turn a blind eye and pretend that I didn't see anything. But you must not touch His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Wang recalled that last time her family provoked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince because of Zhao Yuting, and ended up in big trouble. She still feels scared when she thinks about it...

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an unpredictable temper. The last time Yu Ting happened, the Zhao family suffered a great loss in front of him. She even delayed her own marriage."

Wang secretly thought that if she could stop her youngest daughter's affairs earlier, perhaps...

Maybe the marriage with the prince had already been a natural thing by then, so how could she end up becoming a concubine like this?

"Oh! Sister, I just said it casually, don't take it to heart." Old Mrs. Zhou looked at Wang's expression and was actually quite unhappy.

He tried so hard to stop her. Was he worried that if Ye Qing could get close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she would be stepped on by him?

Humph, in the eyes of Old Lady Zhou, the reason why Zhao Yuting was rejected was simply because her daughter was not as pretty as Ye Qing.

Ye Qing is not ordinary. Although she is a concubine's daughter, she is a real beauty. Her charming figure... is exactly the same as her shameless vixen mother.

Not to mention men, even women can't help but feel jealous when they see it.

Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in a high position and has great power, he is still a man after all. She doesn't believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would look down on Ye Qing's appearance?

Wang was slightly relieved, but she still felt uneasy when she thought of her sister's behavior. She said, "Sister, I invited you to my house because I hope you can help me, not to cause trouble. Although the Zhao family is no longer as glorious as it used to be, we are still doing well."

Her youngest son is now on the right track. Although Zhao Yuxuan is still a little depressed, his wife's dowry is quite generous. The eldest daughter is the mistress of the palace. Although the youngest daughter is a concubine, she is also a member of the Zhenguo Mansion and has a high status.

Now she only needs to hold the money in Xue Jinhua's hands tightly in her own, and she will not be afraid of not having a good life in the future.

"I understand, my dear sister, just relax. I'm new to Kyoto and I'm unfamiliar with the place. How dare I cause trouble?"

Wang felt relieved when she saw that her words were so sincere and reasonable.

After going out, Old Lady Zhou found Zhou Yeqing and said straight to the point, "You should go straight to the front yard now. If you see the person talking to Xue Jinhua, you must try to attract his attention."

Zhou Yeqing's eyes instantly turned red when she saw someone performing a charm in front of her. "Mother, there are distinguished guests coming to the front yard. I..."

"If you want your aunt to be safe, you should know what to do."

Zhou Yeqing swallowed the rest of the words and could only respond obediently, "Mother, I understand."

Mrs. Zhou was satisfied. What Zhao family? And that so-called family of scholars? How could it compare to the nobility of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

If the Zhou family could get close to the Crown Prince, why would they have to go to such great lengths to deceive their own sister? And they wouldn't have to look at Xue Jinhua's annoying face.

The more Old Lady Zhou thought about it, the more relieved she felt. Her eyes were literally lighting up, as if she was about to become the prince's mother-in-law.

.........

Xue Jinhua walked gracefully into the hall, only to see the prince in a black brocade robe, sitting on the throne like a majestic god.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Madam, please don't be polite!" The prince's face was as calm as a lake, and he was not disturbed. "I believe you also know why I came here this time. I must give an explanation to my father about the Xue family's affairs."

"Hasn't Your Highness already made up his mind?"

"Even if there is a conclusion, Father has to believe it. What Father wants is evidence." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reminded, "The account book of the eldest lady can indeed prove that the second son Xue is involved in this matter, but it cannot prove that the Xue family is involved in this matter."

Xue Jinhua couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was trying to wipe out the entire Xue family, not just the second Xue. He didn't go looking for evidence himself, but went straight to her to ask for it.

"If your Highness wants to get what he wants, it will probably take some time." Xue Jinhua kindly reminded, "If your Highness needs more evidence, why not go south in person and explore? Maybe you can get something."
