I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Ji Changming then walked forward, wanting to untie Li Ru himself. The person who loved him the most in the Ji family was his grandmother. No matter what trouble he got into, his grandmother could help him settle it.

In his mind, anything could happen to anyone except his grandmother. Otherwise, if something happened to his grandmother, no one would help him deal with it the next time he got into trouble.

"Ah! What are you doing!"

Lu's younger brother Lu Zixing, who looked a few years older than Ji Changming, reached out and pinched Ji Changming's wrist, causing him to cry out in pain.

He looked coldly at this guy who didn't know the rules and said coldly:

"You have no right to interrupt an elder. Now you are untying a criminal without permission. What do you want to do?"

"Let go! I can do whatever I want. Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to control me?"

Lu Zixing pushed back hard with his backhand, and Ji Changming staggered back a few steps, taking a while to steady himself.

"Hmph, just wait for me!"

"This must be the young master of the Lu family, right? Young people should not be so aggressive. Such aggressiveness can hurt others and yourself."

When Old Madam Ji saw her sweet-talking and likable great-grandson being beaten, she showed no expression but spoke in a sarcastic tone.

If Mrs. Lu hadn't considered herself a respectable person, she really wanted to stand up and tear the old woman's mouth apart.

"Don't worry about that, old lady. You should take good care of the children of the Ji Mansion, so as not to let some people who don't know the rules out of the mansion and hurt people, and bring disaster to the Ji Mansion!"

Mrs. Lu's words were blunt and implied that she was about to declare war on the Ji family.

Old Madam Ji was not at all panicked. With her as the pillar of support, the Ji family would never fall.

"Haha, Madam Lu's words are really interesting, but these words are not suitable for families with weak foundations. Such a family has only made its fortune from these two generations, just like a small tree with shallow roots that cannot withstand wind and rain. If the wind is strong, it may be uprooted."

"But the Ji family is different. We have gone through three dynasties and we are not afraid of wind and rain!"

The previous sentence was said in the Yinyang Du Mansion. Her grandson is so outstanding, but Du Shaoyun’s daughter who had broken off the engagement actually dared to refuse. She is so shameless!

But even if Du Shaoyun was willing, she would not look down on such a great-grandson's wife.

Fang just wanted to join the group chat, but Mrs. Lu started talking, so she didn't want to continue. Now that she was prompted, she started to fight back.

"Some families rely on the influence of their ancestors to bully others and waste the emperor's grace. You should know that even the greatest emperor's grace cannot withstand the consumption of unworthy descendants. Whether a family can gain a foothold in the capital depends most on the ability of its children."

Mrs. Lu gave Fang an approving look and said, "Okay, I'm going to hit the pain point!"

The children of the Ji family are becoming more and more incompetent, and they all hold positions without real power in the court. If there were not a few old men in the family who were keeping up appearances, the Ji family would have been cleared out long ago.

"Mrs. Du, what you said makes sense. That's exactly the case. Unfortunately, some people are old and their eyes are blurry, so they just can't see it."

Old thing, let me ask you which one was killed!

If the Lu family was really gone, Madam Lu would have killed Li Ru and Du Song with a sword long ago. How could she have been in the mood to sit here and listen to her arguing?

Being hit on a sore spot, Madam Ji's expression changed and her tone became even more unfriendly.

"Humph, it's useless to be good at talking. Today's incident did not cause any casualties, and it was not just one person's fault. In my opinion, let this matter go, and our Ji Mansion will not pursue it."

"Does Madam Ji mean that she is determined to protect Li Ru and has no apologies for it?"

"How could that be? Apologies are definitely in order. The Ji family will send some supplements over later. After all, this is the Li family's family affair. Since we are a family, a simple token of our gratitude will suffice."

Madam Ji wanted to make a big thing small, a small thing nothing, to raise things high and then put them down lightly.

"What if I say no?"

Madam Lu stood up and said, "Since you, the Ji family, are not sincere, let's go find someone who can uphold justice. Prepare the imperial edict clothes. I want to go to the palace to meet the Empress!"

"Wait a minute, Madam Lu!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Ji quickly spoke up. If this matter were brought to the attention of the Empress, it would be a big deal.

"Mrs. Lu, why do you insist on making this a big deal? Nothing has happened to your daughter. Li Ru is still the aunt of the Li family, the aunt of your daughter's husband's family. If you make this a big deal, how can your daughter gain a foothold in the Li Mansion in the future?"

"Don't worry about that. Li Ru has always been arrogant. Every time she comes back to the Li Mansion, she always makes trouble. Today, she almost killed my eldest daughter-in-law and young grandson. This lady is very important to our Li Mansion. When the master comes back, we will break off the engagement. Li Ru will never be able to set foot in the Li Mansion again!"

Mrs. Li told her plan, or to be more precise, the result of consultation with her eldest and second sons.

Not only Li Ru, but even Du Song and the others were no longer wanted.

Originally, when facing Du Song, the second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Li wanted her to give her a few more advice, and for the sake of the children and the Du family's face, she would just turn a blind eye.

So when Du Song repeatedly took action against his concubines, Madam Li did not interfere. However, she did not expect that her greed grew bigger and bigger, and she even developed to the point of harming her children.

Today, by some strange mistake, she almost harmed her eldest daughter-in-law and her son. She finally realized that such a troublemaker must not be allowed to stay!

Keeping such a person in the house will only cause more trouble. It is better to cut the Gordian knot and separate mother and children as soon as possible while the two children are still young and have not been influenced by their mother!

"What? Are you crazy? Li Ru is your husband's biological sister. How are you going to explain to him if you do this?"

If the Li family breaks off the engagement with Li Ru, it will definitely affect Li Ru's reputation. Old Madam Ji is not satisfied with this outcome and then looks at the two young masters of the Li family.

"You two, talk to each other. Your mother wants to do such a cruel thing to your aunt. Aren't you going to say something fair?"

"What fair words are you talking about? She almost killed my wife and child. What fair words can I say for her?" Young Master Li's eyes were still red. This usually gentle man spoke to his elders in such a harsh tone for the first time.

"But...but aren't the mother and son okay?"

Facing the victim's husband, Old Madam Ji's arrogance subsided. She never expected that the mild-tempered head of the Li family would get so angry.

When Li Ru's maid went to Ji's house to ask for help, she did not go into details. She only said that Li Ru and Du Song knocked Lu down during the tussle, causing her to give birth prematurely. In fact, the group had already arrived outside Li's house.

However, they did not rush in, but waited until they confirmed that Lu's mother and child were safe before entering.

Upon hearing that nothing happened to Lu and her child, Madam Ji was completely relieved, thinking that this was just a trivial matter. As for the fact that Lu almost died during childbirth and the child was not breathing at birth, he was saved after a series of rescue efforts.

She didn't take it seriously at all!

According to her thinking, the person didn't die in the end, right?

As long as people are not dead, there is room for this matter to be turned around.

"Humph, then you should be thankful that my sister-in-law and nephew are safe, otherwise, none of you will have an easy life!"

Li Suyun worked in the Ministry of Justice. He had a stronger murderous aura and spoke more impolitely.

"That's the opposite. How can you talk to your elders like that?"

Old Madam Ji was very smooth in scolding her illegitimate son, and she did it without hesitation.

Li Suyun's expression remained unchanged, "What kind of elder are you? When you give me face, you are, but when I don't give me face, you are nothing!"

"The elders of the clan will be here soon. We will sever ties with her. You and all of you are not allowed to set foot in the Li Mansion again!" Young Master Li did not want his younger brother to become Madam Ji's punching bag, so he took all the hatred directly.

Du Song held her breath, looked up and carefully observed her husband's expression, fearing her own fate.

Unexpectedly, when she looked up, she met Li Suyun's cold gaze. She was so scared that she almost stopped breathing and quickly showed a pitiful expression.

"Don't worry, once you've dealt with her, it will be your turn."

"Uh-huh!"

As if he understood the meaning of Li Suyun's words, Du Song kept shaking his head and tears flowed down his face.
