Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 76 Xu Rou is locked up

Everyone in the room looked at the lady, whose face turned red. "You are blaming me. It's true. The death of a little girl is not a big deal. It's not worth making a fuss. If a girl doesn't have some skills, how can she control the backyard in the future? I didn't do anything wrong."

The old man shook his head in disappointment: "No wonder you love the seventh girl the most. That child, that personality, is exactly like you."

The lady of the old man stood up suddenly, wishing she could slap the old man in the face: "How dare you criticize me? If I hadn't done everything I could to plan, my sister would have become the queen just because of your family's poor and noble status. You, an old playboy, can't even get an official position for me, and you're holding my sister back..."

Mrs. Bo completely lost face for her old uncle. She was very angry inside. If she didn't express it, she would get wrinkles. Of course, it would not be good for her health.

"What do you know as a woman in the backyard? Your daughter is the queen, how high do you want to be? With the in-laws in power, aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion from the royal family and bringing disaster to the mansion? Throughout history, haven't there been many cases of in-laws exterminating families?"

The old uncle was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "I didn't agree with my daughter's joining the royal family at the beginning, but you insisted on having your own way. Until now, we are still living in fear in the mansion, afraid that something might go wrong."

Lady Bo called out to Qu Lai: "Without the sister in the palace, who would know who you are?"

"I would rather live a life of mediocrity than live in fear all day long." The old man stiffened his neck.

The two sons saw their parents quarreling and didn't know how to persuade them. They were also panicking. They thought they had to have a plan to resolve the problem.

"In the Guan Mansion, pretend to be ill and send her out of the capital quietly in a few years. She should never come back and marry a wealthy businessman from another place. Give her some money so that she will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life." Ignoring the lady's noise, the old man expressed his thoughts.

This was also what he had been thinking about since he knew about this. He couldn't do such a thing as getting rid of the child once and for all, so he had to think of a feasible solution.

"There is another way, which is to send him to the family temple and have him eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures for the rest of his life." The old uncle thought this method was not very reliable. The child was a restless one, and he was afraid that he would make a bigger mistake if he left their sight.

"Second brother, what do you think?" Since it concerned his daughter, the old uncle asked for his opinion.

"I always listen to my father." The second master had no ideas to begin with, and now he had no idea what to do.

"What do you think?" he asked the eldest couple again.

The eldest lady looked at her husband in embarrassment: "We will listen to father too."

"And you." The old uncle asked his wife angrily.

"I don't care." The lady really didn't care. Even though she was her beloved granddaughter, she was no longer of any use to her and was not worth her even a second glance.

"Then lock him up and tell people that he is insane and cannot go out." The old man made the decision.

"Tingfengju has been sealed off and guarded. Food and drink are delivered every day. No one can be let out again. The Bo's Mansion cannot afford any more trouble."

"One more thing." The old man pointed at the eldest lady and said, "Withdraw half of the people from Tingfengju and only leave a few people to serve. Tell her that if she abuses the girl again, all the people from Tingfengju will withdraw and she will be left alone inside."

The Second Master looked at the Old Uncle cautiously and said, "Father, can you please not say it's insanity? If you say that, this child's life is ruined."

"If we don't say that, how can we explain her actions? Should we tell the public that she said that on purpose? How can we calm down the anger of so many people?" Xu Shizi took over and said. There are no fools in the capital. The second son's brain is just a little clever, but when something really happens, he will be confused.

The news that Xu Rou, the seventh daughter of the Changning Marquis's Mansion, had become insane and was locked up soon spread throughout the capital.

When Huang Ye heard the news, she heaved a long sigh of relief. This was exactly the result she wanted. Just like the old uncle thought, she was also afraid that Xu Rou would be sent to the family temple. Xu Rou outside was like a poisonous snake, making it even harder to guard against her.

Listen to the wind.

Xu Rou leaned on the bed, listening to the people sent by the eldest lady talking about the old uncle's arrangements. She didn't make any noise or say anything. As for what she was thinking, no one knew.

"When you go back to grandfather, tell him that Rou'er thanks grandfather for not killing me, and that he and grandmother should live long and healthy lives, and that the mansion should last for a hundred years. From now on, your granddaughter will no longer be able to enjoy his presence."

Xu Rou had a blank expression on her face. As for her parents, they were useless and not worth mentioning.

Xu Rou was filled with hatred. Someone had been trying to harm her, but no one in the mansion believed her. The imperial physician in the palace was useless and could not even find out this. And her grandmother and her aunt the queen always loved her so much, so why didn't they come out to help her at this time? It was all fake, all the love was fake. She was still young and would have a chance. She must marry her cousin the prince, and then she would be above everyone else. By then, she would take revenge on all those who had wronged her. Just wait and see.

When the news reached the old uncle's ears, he was so angry that his chest ached. The Uncle's Mansion had been standing for a hundred years, but this was a curse that the Uncle's Mansion would only last a hundred years. This granddaughter, whom the Uncle's Mansion had raised with fine clothes and delicious food for so many years, turned out to be an ungrateful person.
