Chapter 159 Looking for Zhao Ruyu

Wei Qiu didn't take the conflict between the Wei family and the Suipinghou Mansion to heart. After all, the men in the Suipinghou Mansion were all incompetent, and there wasn't even one who could go to court. So what if the Wei family made her mother-in-law so angry that she had a stroke?

Does the Suiping Hou Mansion still dare to cause trouble?

But he didn't expect that this matter would actually reach the court. He was impeached by the imperial censor and reprimanded by the emperor in front of all the officials. He was so humiliated that he felt very depressed.

When he returned home, he found that his wife had also been admitted to the palace and was severely reprimanded by the Queen Mother, scolding her for not being able to teach her daughter well, causing her daughter to disobey her elders and be domineering and unfilial.

Thinking about the way his colleagues looked at him, he was so angry that he took Mr. Wei out and scolded him.

After scolding him, he said to his wife: "Bring some things to the Hou Mansion tomorrow to make amends for Liniang."

To be able to educate a daughter like Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei is not an educated and polite person.

She immediately glared and said, "Should I make amends to them? That's not a good thought. Who spread these words? If they don't tell those married women, if the married women go back and spread the rumors around, you will be reprimanded by the emperor?"

They are the ones who should apologize. These people still think of themselves as eldest ladies from aristocratic families. Damn, they talk nonsense all day long and are worse than those women in our village."

She waved her hand and said, "Don't worry about this matter. I will go to them tomorrow to seek justice. They are not such bullies."

"That's right." Wei, who had just been scolded, immediately agreed.

Wei Qiu slapped the table: "What nonsense. I have been ordered by the emperor today, and you still go to the Marquis Mansion to make trouble. Do you still think that the censor impeached me for not impeaching me enough?"

Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei did not dare to speak.

After a long while, Mrs. Wei reluctantly said: "Okay, I understand."

She secretly swore in her heart that she would bow her head to the Suiping Marquis Mansion first, and then she would take action to punish those people after the incident was over and the censor no longer stared at their family.

Wei Qiu had the same idea in his heart.

It seems that he has to find officials from the Ministry of War who belong to the Fourth Prince's faction and ask them to hinder Zhao Yuanxun. Zhao Yuanxun holds a military position, while he is a civil servant. The two official positions are incompatible. Now he has to find a way to put Zhao Yuanxun in trouble.

Zhao Yuanxun's idle position was eliminated, so that he would not be able to bully his daughter all day long based on his useless title.

The Wei family never suffers from anything they eat.

Wei's eyes were rolling around.

First it was Li Mu's family, then it was Aunt Wang's matter, and now they drove her back to her parents' home, and they actually dared to spread rumors outside. These incidents came one after another, always making her feel something was wrong.

If it had been like before, whether it was Li Mu's incident or whether she made the old lady angry yesterday, the old lady and the eldest lady would be like cowardly turtles, swallowing their anger and putting up with this matter for the sake of the peace of the entire Hou Mansion.

.

But the eldest lady was uncharacteristically, and her attitude was unprecedentedly tough. She even made the scandal public. She told the married women about the matter and let them go home and gossip about it. Everyone in the capital knew about it, and even the news reached the emperor in just one day.

And in the ears of the Queen Mother.

This aggressive attitude is really abnormal.

Could it be that Mr. Zhu knew about that matter?

But how did she know?

You must know that in this world, apart from herself, the only person who knows that she has changed children is the escaped Wen Po.

As for Po Wen, she sent people to search for it for several years but couldn't find it. How did Zhu, who knew nothing about it, know about it? Po Wen couldn't possibly have a daughter-in-law who knew what her mother-in-law had done and ran to the Yamen.

Sue her?

How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

She touched her heart and decided that no matter what happened, she couldn't just let it go.

She stood up and said to Wei Qiu and Mrs. Wei: "Father, mother, I'm going out for a while."

"Stop." Wei Qiu's face darkened, "Why are you running out at this time? Are you afraid that others won't point it in your face and scold you? Go back to your room and stay there. You can't go anywhere. Pass.

The Hou Mansion will send someone to pick you up soon."

"I'm going to find Sister Yu." Wei said, "I have to tell her to see what's going on in the house, so that we don't get a black eye."

"Then you don't need to go," said Mrs. Wei, "just send a servant back to inquire."

"Oh mother, I have something to say to Sister Yu." said Wei, "I won't go to the Marquis Mansion either. I'll wait at the door of the Women's Academy. I'll say a few words to her and then come back."

"Can't you just ask a servant to call Ruyu back? Why do you have to go yourself?" Mrs. Wei didn't understand her daughter's thoughts.

Now that the Wei family is on the cusp of the storm, if you go out and be seen by others, you will be pointing fingers and gossiping, which will not be good if it causes trouble.

"It's okay. I hid in the carriage and said a few words to her without anyone seeing me. If Ru Yu returns to the Wei Mansion and someone sees her, it will cause another round of trouble."

Mrs. Wei said, without waiting for Wei Qiu and Mrs. Wei to say anything else, she picked up her skirt and walked out.

Mrs. Wei wanted to complain to her husband, but she saw Wei Qiu standing up.

"I'm going to the study. Don't disturb me." Wei Qiu waved his hand and walked out with his hands behind his back.

The Wei family knew when Zhao Ruyu was out of school, so she waited in a carriage not far from the entrance of the Capital Girls' Academy some time in advance, and sent a young-looking maid from the Wei family to guard the door.

Seeing Zhao Ruyu coming out, the little maid hurriedly greeted him: "Girl, girl."

When Zhao Ruyu saw her, her heart sank. She said goodbye to her friend and pulled the little maid to the corner: "What are you doing here?"

"My aunt is looking for you. She is on the carriage over there." The little maid pointed to the Wei Mansion's carriage parked not far away.

Wei Qiu's impeachment caused uproar in the city, and Zhao Ruyu already knew about it even in the academy.

At this moment, she absolutely didn't want to pay attention to Mr. Wei. But she knew that if she ignored him, Mr. Wei would do something crazy at the entrance of the academy.

She had no choice but to hold her book bag and walk towards the carriage.

"Come up quickly." Mrs. Wei was extremely enthusiastic and affectionate towards Zhao Ruyu like never before. She opened the door curtain for her with her own hands, pulled her up, poured her another cup of tea, and pushed the snacks in front of her, "Are you hungry? Come here.

, let’s have a snack first.”

Zhao Ruyu was in a very bad mood, and was too lazy to go around the bush with Wei, and asked directly: "What do you want from me?"

Wei was not a good-tempered person, and she was also annoyed when she saw Zhao Ruyu being shameless.

She knew that her adopted daughter was shrewd and couldn't be coaxed anymore, so she went straight to the point: "I guess you can see it. Ever since your fifth sister returned to the Marquis Mansion, the old lady and the eldest lady have valued her very much. Even if you pass the exam

Even though she entered the Capital Women's Academy, her status in the hearts of the old lady and the eldest lady seems to be no match. So I want you to find a way to lure Zhao Ruxi out. I don't want to do anything, I just want her to marry into the Wei family. I

I promise you that as long as your fifth sister marries into the Wei family, I will do everything in my power to allow you to marry the second young master of Pingnanhou smoothly."
