“Yeah, yesterday’s incident was too much of a blow to her.” Mrs. Ning handed Zhou Ying a cup of tea.
“Thank you.” Zhou Ying nodded with a smile and took the teacup.
Mrs. Zhao sneered and said, “Isn’t she just too ashamed to face others?
“There were no outsiders here, so there was no need to hide it.
“To be honest, if I were her, I would have killed myself from the shame. She would be in deep trouble from the mess Mrs. Cui left behind.”
“Stop it.” Mrs. Ning glared at her.
“Which part of it is wrong? Besides, Mrs. Cui harmed my unborn child, so it’s already good that I’m not taking revenge.”
When Mrs. Ning heard this, she knew there was still resentment in Mrs. Zhao’s heart. She did not try to persuade her but gave her a warning look. She then told Yang Wanning, “Wanning, take care of your cousin-in-law. I’m going to the front.”
As soon as she left, Yang Wanning offered, “Cousin-in-law, I’ll bring you to a side room to rest.”
Zhou Ying nodded and followed her to the side room.
When Mrs. Zhao saw this, she also stood up. “Since even the person who should be here the most isn’t even here, 1 can’t be bothered to mourn for my enemy.”
After saying that, she stood up and left.
When Mrs. Zhang saw this, she got up and swept her eyes across the room. She laughed at the soft couch that the old madam often lay on and said, “Madam, you have schemed your entire life, but in the end, you have lost everyone’s favor. I’m curious if you regret it now.
“I think the Yang Residence is about to topple. I wouldn’t mind watching to its very end.”
Zhou Ying, who was keeping tabs at the Yang Residence, was surprised when she heard Mrs. Zhang’s words. It seemed that she had a lot of grievances against the old madam.
She seemed to be someone who understood the situation they were in. Zhou Ying wondered what kind of story she had.
However, seeing that she was harmless, Zhou Ying had no intention of asking.
After confirming that no one else was in the courtyard, she asked Yang Wanning, “What do you plan to do next?”
“Do you think my father will chase us out of the house in anger if we don’t attend Mrs. and Madam Cui’s funeral?”
“Yesterday, your cousin mentioned this to me.
“I think it’s better for you to send them off.
“No matter how the Cui Family and their extended family treated you, Madam Cui is still your grandmother. It might look bad on you if you are adamant about cutting your relationship with them and refusing to send them off.
“Moreover, all the evil deeds were attributed to Mrs. Cui. Although Madam Cui treated you badly on the surface, she never harmed you, right?
“Besides, you guys already fought yesterday, but Yang Shicheng didn’t make things difficult for you, right?”
“But… I can’t take this anymore.”
“A little forbearance will preserve the plan. If it really doesn’t work, make a fuss about the dowry.
“If he were to prepare a dowry for Yang Wanyu, it would be impossible for him not to touch your mother’s dowry.”
Yang Wanning’s eyes lit up. “Yes, my mother’s dowry mustn’t fall into the hands of the enemy’s daughter.”
“But with such a big problem related to the Cui Family, will King Hui still marry Wanyu?”
“You should know that your father is on King Hui’s side, right?”
Yang Wanyu paused when she heard that. That’s right. Based on the various signs in her previous life, her father should be one of the trusted aides of King Hui. Otherwise, he would not have been promoted so quickly.
He definitely had something on King Hui. Even if it wasn’t fatal, it was still something major.
Therefore, as long as Yang Shicheng was still alive, Prince Hui would not give up on marrying Yang Wanyu unless it was absolutely necessary.
“Cousin-in-law, why do you think King Hui didn’t do anything when my father went to prison?”
“Maybe he doesn’t dare to. I heard the Emperor is in charge of the Cui Family’s affairs.
“Another reason is that he might still be useful..”
