After Fu left, Madam Shao was sullen and angry for a long time. She thought that the daughter of the Lin family, who was brought up in a small family, would be a mess, and she was even more so because she was a concubine. Unexpectedly, she had some means and skills, and actually took down Shao Xun, the scoundrel?

This really made Old Madam Shao very surprised. She knew Shao Xun's personality very well. She had spent many years trying to win him over but still couldn't!

This Lin family had looked down upon her in the past.

Madam Shao said sarcastically to Aunt Tang beside her: "Those from small families have their own advantages. Sometimes, those who are not worthy of respect are more likable than those who are well-educated, virtuous and kind."

It is very humiliating for Madam Shao to say such words, but since there are no outsiders here, Madam Shao vents her anger without caring.

Aunt Tang also hurriedly chimed in, "What has the old lady not seen and heard? Just as the old lady said, those who are born in a lowly family all have some coquettish and dirty tricks. But those despicable tricks are not the right way after all, and they won't last long."

Madam Shao sneered: "But it's good to please men, especially those dandy dudes who are never serious. Isn't it better to please men?"

Aunt Tang: "They are willing to go down this path of depravity. I don't think they will last long. Why should the old lady worry about this?"

Madam Shao thought about it and smiled, "That's right."

Shao Xun was originally a bastard, and now he has set his eyes on a lowly-born woman named Lin. Wouldn't it be worse if they were together? What was she worried about!

At the Meng family, Meng Mingchi returned from work, feeling exhausted. As soon as he opened the door and entered the yard, he heard his mother and his wife arguing again. His sister was there to help his mother and retort his wife.

Meng Mingchi felt a headache and felt even more tired.

"My son, you are back! Your wife is so powerful. She is so useless. Not only can she not help you at all, but she is also very capable of arguing with me and your sister all day long. What's the point of having such a wife?"

How could Lin Yuwei let an old woman destroy her image in front of her husband? She still expected her husband to respect and love her as his wife and take her to enjoy happiness in the future. She hurriedly said, "Mother, please don't embarrass me. My sister and the Marquis are not at home. What can I do? Mr. Shao has no official position, and he has always been at odds with the Marquis. What's the point of me asking him for help?"

Mother Meng: "Then why are you still being lazy? Don't you go to Wuwei Marquis's mansion every day? If you don't keep an eye on them, how do you know if they come back? Humph, maybe they just look down on you and don't take you seriously, so they are deliberately finding excuses to avoid you."

"That's impossible. No matter what, Madam Wuwei is still my sister. Broken bones are connected by tendons. What girl wouldn't understand the principle of sharing weal and woe?"

No matter how much Lin Yuwei hated and envied Lin Yulan, she couldn't help but mock her and find fault with her when she saw Lin Yulan. However, she had to suppress her emotions and treat her as her own sister behind her back.

This can be considered as a help to her in her husband's family and in front of her husband, and she can't bear to give it up.

Mother Meng had no way to refute her words, but she was unwilling to be suppressed by her words, so she snorted, "Then don't just talk, why don't you go find her! Don't you see how hard Ming Chi works every day? You clearly know that she was wronged, but you don't feel sorry for her at all!"

"Who said I don't feel bad for him?" Lin Yuwei couldn't stand hearing this, especially in front of Meng Mingchi. "He's my own husband, how could I not feel bad for him? I'll go see him tomorrow."

At worst, I could ask Shao Zhixin and the damn mother and daughter Fu to ridicule me again.

This damn mother and daughter are so annoying in both lives.

When Meng Zifang heard her words, she immediately said, "Sister-in-law, don't forget to take me with you tomorrow. I will go with you."

Lin Yuwei was so angry that her chest hurt. Who doesn’t know what you are planning?

It's okay on normal days, but not this time.

"How about next time? This time I'm going to ask someone to do something for me..."

What if Lin Yulan gets angry and refuses to help?

"Don't I know the importance of this? Does my sister-in-law despise me so much?"

Mother Meng: "Zifang is right. Let Zifang accompany you. Isn't it good to have a companion to help each other?"

Lin Yuwei gritted her teeth and endured: "Then sister, please don't say anything nonsense tomorrow. The only thing we have to do tomorrow is to help my husband get justice. Let's put everything else aside for now."

Don't let your brain get hot-headed and think about trying to get her to be your concubine!

Meng Zifang rolled her eyes at her unhappily: "Do I need you to tell me?"

Lin Yuwei gritted her teeth in hatred. She couldn't stay in this shabby place for even a moment longer!

Otherwise, she might as well just go straight to the Rongguo Mansion and confront the Rongguo's wife.

Meng Mingchi said calmly, "Make good preparations tomorrow before going. I saw the carriage of the Marquis of Wuwei returning to the city today. It is most likely the Marquis and his wife."

"Really!" Meng Zifang's eyes lit up.

Lin Yuwei's eyes lit up and she smiled immediately, "Okay, okay, I will make good preparations tomorrow. Don't worry, my husband. I will make sure my sister and brother-in-law agree to help me no matter what. My husband was wronged in the first place. How can he continue to suffer this? I must make sure that my husband clears his name."

When Lin Yuwei said this, she couldn't help but look at Meng Mingchi, and her intention to show off and seek praise was obvious.

To put it more bluntly, it means: I have tried my best to help you and give so much for you, you must remember my kindness!

Meng Mingchi originally felt somewhat grateful to her, but because of this look and expression, he suddenly felt disgusted.

But he still nodded, trying to appear gentle and affectionate and said softly to Lin Yuwei: "My lady, thank you for your thoughtfulness!"

If he still had some arrogance and unwillingness to accept the powerful in the past, then he was demoted and humiliated when he was wronged. His friends who used to be close to him now distanced themselves from him intentionally or unintentionally. Now that he was guarding the city gate and facing the ridicule, cold words and difficulties of his so-called "colleagues", how could he still have any arrogance?

All he knew was that he didn't want to stand there guarding the city gate anymore, enduring the ridicule and humiliation.

Pride? Integrity? What is this?

When Meng's mother heard this, she was dissatisfied and said, "Why should my son thank her? As a wife, isn't it her duty to help her husband?"

Lin Yuwei cursed the old woman in her heart, but she had to fake a smile and said, "Mother is right. Husband, there is no need to be so formal. We are husband and wife, and this is what I should do."

Meng Mingchi smiled and said, "I still have to thank Madam."

He thought to himself, my mother knows that this is what a wife should do, but she insists on showing off to me. No matter what she does for me, she always takes credit for it.
