My whole family abuses me? Then I will abuse the whole family!

Chapter 128 Being a widow is not a heinous crime

In a solemn and ancient mansion in Yongchang City.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and wealthy families are very particular about it, so they have to prepare a month in advance.

Many craftsmen are repairing and renovating this century-old building, renovating the old parts and replacing the broken parts.

Upon closer inspection, the carvings on these buildings have all been damaged. Those that are not so damaged have been repaired with other materials, while those that are seriously damaged have had to be replaced entirely. Compared with the surrounding decorations that are quite old, they are quite conspicuous.

This one can be made old to blend in with the surroundings, but the owner has said that it can be replaced with a new one, there is no need to deliberately make it old.

The sounds of knocking and banging added a touch of liveliness.

"Time flies...New Year is coming soon." The old lady sat in the corridor and sighed as she watched the craftsmen.

She was wearing a loose Manchu dress that only women from wealthy families in the late Qing Dynasty would wear. The embroidery on it was exquisite and intricate. Her long white hair was neatly tied up without a single strand loose. There was a kingfisher-inlaid jewel in the bun behind her head, and a mink headband inlaid with gems and pearls was wrapped around her forehead.

Her face was covered with traces of time, and a round mole between her eyebrows made her face look kind.

Even though the country has been founded for more than 30 years, she seems to still be living in the past.

"After the New Year, the children will all be back." Aunt Mei's voice was somewhat happy, "It will be more lively then."

He peeled the orange deftly, carefully peeling off the translucent outer layer of the orange segment, leaving only the orange flesh. He put it on a small plate, put a silver fork on it, and placed it respectfully in front of the old lady.

"Madam, this orange tastes very good, please try it."

Upon hearing this, the old lady looked back at Aunt Mei, reached out to take the silver fork, poked a piece of orange flesh and ate it. The flesh was soft in her mouth, and the juice spread in her mouth with a light push of her tongue. It was not a cloyingly sweet taste, but slightly sweet and sour.

She likes this light sweet and sour taste.

I couldn't help but fork in another small piece and eat it, "The orange is good."

"How about the girl?"

Seeing that she liked it, Aunt Mei smiled from ear to ear and continued to busy herself with peeling tangerine segments.

"Madam, that little girl doesn't look like she has the right state of mind for her age. She is either very cunning or she really doesn't want to enter our Fang family."

When the old lady heard her say this, she instantly became interested. Normally, Aunt Mei seldom praised a girl in front of her. After a moment's thought, she knew what she wanted to do.

"What did she say to you?"

Aunt Mei told the whole story, including what Fang Yanxin was thinking.

After hearing this, the old lady chuckled and said, "Yan Xin has his own ideas. If he succeeds, this girl will definitely be his good wife in the future."

Looking up at the sky that was surrounded by buildings, he said calmly, "It's a pity that he was so wishful. A free and wild horse would never want to be trapped here for life."

Aunt Mei also looked up at the square sky, and thinking of what Xu Ye said, she sighed, "Yes, she was born at a good time and had a choice."

The old lady glanced at her sideways and asked, "Why, do you regret it?"

Aunt Mei's back immediately went cold, and her tone was full of coquettishness. "Alas, I was ignorant when I was young, and everyone will regret it when they are old. To be honest, if time could go back, I would like to go back and slap my younger self twice. Why do I want wealth and glory? Isn't it better to be an opera singer honestly? Those who were in the same period as me have become masters of their generation, surrounded by a group of students and teachers. Don't mention how impressive they are. I can only envy them."

The old lady liked her for not hiding anything, and laughed, "You, you are still so superficial. You only see how glamorous they are now. When they were suffering more than ten or twenty years ago, you said that it was a good thing you didn't perform, otherwise you would be the one who was tied up and put on the stage to confess your mistakes and repent."

Aunt Mei thought that the Fang family had knelt before, and that their lives were much more miserable than those opera singers. She only dared to complain in her heart and shamelessly refused to admit it, "That was not me, it didn't happen, madam, you remembered it wrongly."

Seeing how shameless she was, the old lady joked that her face was thicker than the city wall.

Aunt Mei smiled and turned the topic back to Wen Jing, and also analyzed the background of the investigation in detail.

"This girl is a person who values ​​friendship. If her father and stepmother had been a little nicer to her, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation. I guess this girl deliberately angered her parents in order to send them to jail."

The old lady hummed, "I heard that Yan Xin wanted to be a hero and save the beauty, but the beauty saved the hero instead? And he almost caused the girl to drown?"

Aunt Mei was helpless. "Well, sometimes this child does things that really make people speechless."

The old lady smiled and said, "After such an embarrassing incident, it's no wonder that little girl looked down on Yan Xin."

"She was born in a good time and is ambitious. If she really becomes talented in the future, it is not impossible for such a woman to marry into our family. Maybe those people will be completely obedient under her rule."

Aunt Mei looked up at her expression and said tentatively, "Although this is true, she is a widow after all, and she has no family background. She is of no help to Yan Xin's career, not to mention that the master will not allow such a woman to enter our Fang family..."

The old lady looked at her with disdain and thought: She is indeed a short-sighted concubine.

"Times have changed. The chastity arch has long been toppled. Being a widow is not a heinous crime. As long as you don't pursue a married woman, there's nothing wrong with that."

Aunt Mei was completely relieved. "Madam, you are right. I have learned my lesson."

She had gone to such great lengths to speak well of Wen Jing in front of the Madam today, all for the purpose of protecting Fang Yanxin.

Her annoying son is becoming more and more like an idiot.

It was she who suggested that her son hook up with Yan Qingqing, and it was actually done. In order to get on board the Fang family, the Yan family spent all their money to help their son get on board.

Later, her son's position became higher and higher, and he caught the eyes of the master and the mistress. She also tried to curry favor with them, and became the messenger in front of the master and the mistress. She had some power in her hands, and her position in the Fang family was very stable.

As soon as her son had secured his position as section chief, he wanted to kick Yan Qingqing out and marry someone else. This was courting death. She tried to persuade him again and again, but her son was determined to divorce her.

It was better for the master and the mistress to come out and warn people not to be so heartless. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. If the Yan family is not supported, I am afraid that the Yan family will use all its strength to kill Fang Hanchuan.

The son was scared and went to help Yan's family up.
