Marrying for someone else and being a widow? Stepmothers open classes to raise children

However, at this moment, the concubines from other courtyards were walking out of the house. They saw the intimate scene between Xie Yunchen and Concubine Liao, and the jealousy and dissatisfaction in their hearts burned like flames.

"This concubine Liao is really the reincarnation of a vixen. She has actually bewitched the young master!" One concubine said with gritted teeth. Yes, what's so good about her that she deserves such favor from our young master? "Another concubine also echoed.

They were unhappy, but they could do nothing about it. Xie Yunchen's heart had already leaned towards Aunt Liao, and no matter how much they fought for his favor, they could not change this fact.

The concubines and concubines sat in the flower hall, exchanging glances with each other, with disdainful smiles on their lips. Each of them seemed to have found a common pleasure - that is to ridicule Li, the once gorgeous but now disgraced person.

"Look at her. She was so glorious before, but now she has become a joke." Aunt Kong said with a sneer, with a hint of pride in her eyes.

"That's right. She faked a pregnancy to frame the lady, thinking that she could consolidate her position, but she didn't expect that it would all be in vain in the end." Another concubine said, her tone full of sarcasm.

Their words were like sharp knives, piercing Li's heart. Li's face turned pale, she clenched her fists tightly, and sparks of anger flashed in her eyes. However, she did not explode immediately, but chose to endure silently.

"What's the point of saying this?" Li finally spoke. Although her voice was weak, it was full of determination. "The past is the past. What else do you want?"

Aunt Kong's eyes widened, as if she had heard a huge joke: "What happened in the past? Do you think we are all fools? We remember clearly how you framed Madam."

The other concubines nodded one after another, as if confirming what Concubine Kong said. They began to talk about Li's crimes, and every word was like a needle piercing Li's heart.

"That's right. She thought she could secure her position by faking pregnancy. What a foolish dream."

"She also tried to alienate Madam and Concubine Kong. Her intentions were truly sinister."

"That's right. Someone like her doesn't deserve the madam's favor at all."

Li's face became more and more ugly, she felt waves of humiliation and anger. She glared at Aunt Kong, with sparks of hatred flashing in her eyes.

"You are all right. I did make mistakes." Li Shi suddenly spoke, his voice calm and firm, "But that doesn't mean I will never stand up again. I will prove to you that I, Li Shi, am not so easily defeated."

Aunt Kong and the other aunts were stunned. They didn't expect Li to respond like this. They looked at each other, their eyes revealing confusion and uneasiness.

"Humph, do you think you can still turn the tables?" Aunt Kong sneered and said, "Don't forget, you are now a lady who has fallen from favor. No one will believe you anymore."

Li smiled slightly, with a determined light flashing in her eyes: "Just wait and see, I, Li, am not that easy to be defeated."

Li looked towards Aunt Liao's room, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes, as if she had made an important decision deep in her heart. She tightened her sleeves, straightened her back, and strode towards there. Her steps were firm and powerful, as if every step was declaring her determination.

Entering Aunt Liao's courtyard, Li knelt down at the door without hesitation, with a pious and resolute attitude. She looked up at the closed door, took a deep breath, and then shouted with all her might: "Master, I have something important to tell you! Please come out for a moment."

Xie Yunchen was attracted by Li's voice. He stopped what he was doing and walked out of the house in confusion. He saw Li kneeling at the door with a bit of anxiety on his face, and he couldn't help but frowned.

"Li, what are you doing? Is there anything that can't be discussed calmly?" Xie Yunchen asked.

Li raised her head, looked at Xie Yunchen firmly, and said in a serious tone: "Master, Madam Gu Zhiyi and Wu Jingying teamed up to act and tricked you into going to school. This was all their scheme."

When Xie Yunchen heard this, his face immediately turned ugly. He widened his eyes, with a flash of shock and anger in his eyes. He had never thought that his wife, whom he had always respected, and Wu Jingying would actually join forces to deceive him.

Xie Yunchen looked at Li coldly: "Li, are you telling the truth? Madam Gu Zhiyi and Wu Jingying teamed up to trick me into studying?"

There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but more of anger.

Li raised her head, looked at Xie Yunchen firmly, and said calmly: "Master, I am not lying. This is all true. The reason I did this is because I can't bear to see you being deceived by them and played around by them."

Xie Yunchen's face became increasingly gloomy. He turned and left to find Wu Jingying to verify the matter.

However, at this moment, Aunt Liao heard the noise outside and rushed out. She saw Li kneeling at the door with anger and dissatisfaction on her face. She walked up to Li and kicked her: "You bitch, you dare to ruin the good thing between me and the young master! Get out of here!"

Li was kicked to the ground by Aunt Liao, but she burst into laughter. She looked at Aunt Liao and said sarcastically: "Haha, Aunt Liao, do you think you can suppress me forever? Wu Jingying's existence makes it impossible for me to regain my favor, but I tell you, I will not give up just like that."

Aunt Liao was stunned. She didn't expect Li to be so crazy. She stared at Li with wide eyes, as if she saw a madman. She shouted angrily: "You crazy woman, don't make trouble here, get out!"

Li continued to laugh, with a determined light in her eyes. She looked at Aunt Liao and said word by word: "Aunt Liao, I will not be suppressed forever. I will let you know that I, Li, am not someone you can easily mess with."

Xie Yunchen's footsteps echoed in Wu Jingying's room. He stared at her coldly, his eyes full of questioning and doubt. Wu Jingying huddled in the corner of the bed, her face pale and her eyes terrified, like a deer cornered by a hunter.

"Tell me, did you and your mother discuss the matter of Li's plea for mercy?" Xie Yunchen's voice was low and cold, revealing his anger at the moment.

Wu Jingying's lips trembled. This time she could no longer escape and could only bite the bullet and admit, "Yes, my mother and I discussed this. I know it's not right, but I really have no choice..."

"Helpless?" Xie Yunchen's voice was filled with sarcasm. "What you mean by helplessness is to deceive me and use me?"

Wu Jingying's tears burst out, she bit her lips tightly, trying to control her emotions. However, the guilt and fear in her heart made her unable to do so. She raised her head and looked at Xie Yunchen, her eyes full of pleading: "Yunchen, I was wrong, I was really wrong. Please, don't blame the new lady, it's all my fault, it has nothing to do with her."
