After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 157 Is it that I don’t want to live a peaceful life?
"We are all family, why do you have to disturb the peace of the family?"
Bai Yanlang brushed off the dust on his official hat, looking helpless.
He wanted to live a good life, but for some reason, his life just couldn't go well.
"Is it because I don't want to live a peaceful life?"
Lu was so angry at his words that she laughed, "Which incident was not caused by you?"
She counted on her fingers, "Bai Mulin had a mistress, Bai Muchen borrowed money from a loan shark, Bai Yaoyao embarrassed herself at such a young age, and that bitch from the Qiao family stole my son's land deed. Which of these things were caused by us?"
Mrs. Lu thought of her good mother-in-law, and her smile became even more sarcastic. "I just don't understand. Youyou is your biological daughter. Even if your mother doesn't like her, she wouldn't let Wang Momo silence Zhang Momo when she knew that Zhang Momo was the key to finding the murderer of Youyou? It's simply ridiculous!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?!"
Bai Yanlang was startled. "What do you mean Nanny Wang silenced Nanny Zhang?"
Li He was injured when he saved Bai Youyou, so he did not stay by his side today.
When he came to Fangfei Garden last night, Mrs. Lu picked up the broom and started working without saying a word. He was so angry that he went to the study alone.
He finished court early in the morning and just returned home. He still has no idea what happened in the mansion last night.
Mrs. Lu sneered, "Your mother is really clever. She was afraid that Zhang Momo would reveal the mastermind behind the scenes, so she actually asked Wang Momo to silence Zhang Momo and then committed suicide on the spot."
As she was talking, Xiudou's mind suddenly turned, "She went to such great lengths to kill Aunt Zhang, could it be that she is the one who wants to harm Youyou?!"
Bai Yanlang looked gloomy and glared at her sternly, "Shut up, stop talking nonsense!"
"I'm talking nonsense?" Lu laughed angrily, "If not, why would she be so eager to kill people to silence them?"
Bai Yanlang tried to think for a long time but couldn't think of any words to refute.
Wang Momo is his mother's person. Apart from her mother, Bai Yanlang can't think of anyone else who can control Nanny Wang.
But why did she do this?
"There must be something else going on here, so stop talking nonsense!"
Bai Yanlang hurriedly said something and walked towards Songtao Garden with big strides.
Songtao Garden was quiet today. Bai Yanlang entered the yard and found that none of the maids who usually served him were there.
"mother?"
After entering the hall, Bai Yanlang saw the person sitting on the armchair and walked over quickly.
"Where are the people in your yard? Why is there no one here?"
"They were all summoned by Jingzhao Yin's men for questioning."
Old Mrs. Qiao did not sleep the whole night and was rubbing his temples tiredly.
Bai Yanlang pursed his lips and looked at his mother's aged face. He couldn't help but ask, "Mom, what happened to Wang Momo?"
He still didn't believe that his own mother would ask Wang Momo to silence Nanny Zhang. After all, those two had been with her since she was a child. How could they not have feelings for each other after so many years?
"I don't know."
Old Qiao looked calm, and even her eyes didn't flicker when she lied. "Maybe they have some private grudges."
Old Mrs. Qiao didn't dare tell her stupid son the truth, for fear that he would get to the bottom of the matter and then do something stupid again.
She glanced at Bai Yanlang with a pitiful look, "Go and say some soft words to Lu. As long as Youyou and Luochuan are here, she won't be able to leave and return home. You should try to coax her more."
Speaking of his shrewish wife, Bai Yanlang felt a headache. "Mom, when I left the court today, old Censor Chen stared at me with a weird look. I'm afraid he will file a complaint against me tomorrow."
"Who told you to act without thinking?" Old Mrs. Qiao snorted, "Just stay in your proper place first. When your brother returns to Beijing, I will help you plan your future."
"But......"
Bai Yanlang seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.
As soon as he stuck his butt out, Old Mrs. Qiao knew what he was up to. She glared at Bai Yanlang with a cold expression, "No buts. Bai Youyou and Bai Luochuan are the bloodline of my Bai family. I will never allow them to leave with the Lu family!"
"Even if they leave with Lu, they are still my children, Bai Yanlang..."
Bai Yanlang wanted to argue, but Old Mrs. Qiao stared at him fiercely, "This is the only bargaining chip that can restrain the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. If you lose these two children, do you think you can win the prince's eyes?"
Of course it's impossible.
Bai Yanlang knew his own weight very well. He lowered his head and touched his nose in dismay.
"Go back and stabilize the Lu family. If the Lu family refuses to change their ways, go find Luo Chuan. He has always been soft-hearted since he was young, so you can start with him."
