I just want to die of old age

Chapter 84: The Fight in the Marquis' Mansion - Cannon Fodder, Real Gold 16

They didn't expect that I was so powerful and beat Guo Shaojie into this state.

They originally came to rescue people, but now they can only send Guo Shaojie back to the Shangshu Mansion.

Steward Wang of the Marquis' Mansion was usually considerate and considerate, but seeing things develop into this state, he had no choice but to continue handling the matter.

He arranged for his confidant to return to the Marquis' Mansion and inform the Marquis of the whole story, and then arranged for the servants to prepare a sedan chair and carefully carry Guo Shaojie back to the Shangshu Mansion.

Before Guo Shaojie left, he glared at me fiercely, as if he wanted to cut me into pieces.

I hid aside and secretly gave him a look of contempt, which made him even more furious and his hatred for me deepened.

Steward Wang used to help handle affairs when the Marquis was still young, and now all the affairs of the Marquis's mansion are still under his management.

He is deeply trusted by the Marquis and is very careful and prudent in his conduct and considerations.

At this moment, he couldn't control his expression and he looked at me in surprise.

I knew there was no point in pretending anymore, so I smiled widely, looked fearless, and moved forward courageously.

I have never been afraid of any difficulties. The worst that can happen is that I can leave the Marquis' Mansion and still live a free and easy life.

I don't think I was wrong.

When Steward Wang saw how frank I was, he admired me in his heart, thinking that I had the same demeanor as the Marquis did in the past.

When the Marquis had not yet married, he acted so boldly. He was not afraid or timid. The officials' sons in the capital who spent their days eating, drinking and having fun and not doing their jobs were all afraid of him like a tiger.

The way he looked at me was even more kind. I didn’t expect that the one who looked most like the Marquis was the Second Miss. She is worthy of being the Marquis’ daughter, and she is so outstanding.

I was confused and disoriented by the straightforward look in Butler Wang's eyes.

The sedan chair arranged by Butler Wang stopped and a servant was lying on the ground with his back bent. I stepped into the sedan chair but did not step on it.

Although I am not a perfect person, I don't want to trample on the dignity of others in this way.

I sat alone in the sedan chair, silently thinking about countermeasures. Would the Marquis' Mansion just kick me out?

I can still live well with the money I have. I don't think the Marquis' Mansion would want me to take even a penny.

While I was daydreaming, all kinds of house fighting plots were playing out in my mind, and before I knew it, I had finally returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

I just walked into the living room.

The lady of the Marquis's livid face appeared in her eyelids, and she angrily scolded me: "I shouldn't have let you leave the house and cause trouble all day long."

I raised my head firmly and said, "I am not wrong in this matter."

"Women should be gentle and virtuous, but you have done it again and again, which is wrong."

I said in a colder voice, "Guo Shaojie is trying to snatch my Master Yinmo's painting. Of course I can't let him succeed."

"You can't hit anyone, either."

"If I don't fight back, am I just going to stand there and let him beat me? I'm not stupid."

Seeing that I kept talking back and didn't repent, the wife of the Marquis became even more furious.

She shouted, "You are really rebellious. You don't repent and keep talking back. Someone, give me a ruler. If I don't teach you a lesson, you are really lawless."

A maid timidly handed over the ruler in her hand, then hurriedly retreated.

The lady of the Marquisate looked at me angrily. She held up the ruler and said angrily, "Put your hand out."

She looked at me fiercely, as if she was looking at an enemy rather than her own daughter.

I felt a sudden pain in my heart when I saw my so-called mother treating me so cruelly.

I stretched out my hands woodenly, and she hit my hands hard with the ruler.

A red mark appeared on the palm of my hand. She hit me 20 times in a row. My hand was already red and swollen.

Every time she hit me, I felt a sharp pain in my hand. She did this over and over again.

Seeing how badly injured I was, Xia Lan burst into tears. She tried to rush over several times, but was stopped by the maid of the Marquis's wife.

I didn't dodge, but just looked at this cold-blooded lady of the Marquis's Mansion without any attachment.

I just felt a void in my heart, as if I had lost something and felt a little sad, but also a lot more relaxed.

When the lady of the Marquis's mansion saw my cold expression, her heart skipped a beat and she felt very aggrieved.

She was clearly doing it for Su Yuzhu's own good, but this unfilial daughter actually hated her.

After she came back, she has been acting recklessly and getting into trouble all the time. She did this to educate Su Yuzhu, so she did nothing wrong.

I looked at her coldly and said, "Mother, if the fight is over, I will withdraw."

"You..." After hearing this, her fingers trembled slightly, her face flushed with anger, and she said angrily: "Unfilial daughter, disobedient and unfilial, you actually spoke to me in this tone."

"If the father is not kind, the son will not be filial. As a mother, you have never taken care of me since I came back, but you have been pretending to be a good mother. Why? It's better for you to just ignore me."

"You're talking nonsense. When have I ever ignored you?"

"Then why didn't you think of getting a nanny for me? I asked my father for a nanny myself. You never thought about how I would handle the situation if I didn't have a nanny to teach me, didn't know any etiquette, and didn't know the major families in the capital."

After hearing this, she looked at me with wide eyes, and her eyes flashed with guilt, remorse, anger, and all kinds of complicated emotions mixed together.

She felt guilty about having her thoughts exposed, and ashamed that she did not pay enough attention to her daughter, which made her overall emotions even more extreme.

"I'm usually busy managing the affairs of the mansion, how can I remember such a small matter?" She defended loudly, her eyes wandering, not daring to meet my eyes.

"So my affairs are all small matters in your mind, and Su Mingyu's small matters are all big matters in your eyes."

"Mingyu has always been considerate, so naturally I treat her differently."

I threw out the words calmly, and one sentence hit her directly, exposing her coldness and selfishness: "In fact, you just don't dare to face your own mistakes."

The wife of the Marquis's hand was trembling slightly, and her body seemed to be hollowed out suddenly. Her pupils shrank, and as if what she was thinking had been said, she fell silent.

"You can't face me, right? You have always been an extremely strong person. When you left me stranded outside, you were indeed deeply distressed at first, but as time went on, you found excuses for yourself, saying that we were not destined to be mother and daughter, which is why we were separated for 18 years. In order to stop feeling guilty, you gradually began to hate me. You felt that I shouldn't have come here and ruined your happy life. So you ignored me and wished I could disappear from your sight."

The Marquis's wife took a few steps back involuntarily. She shook her head and said, "I... I don't think so. You are my daughter after all. I just want to teach you well."

She emphasized the latter part of her voice, as if she was speaking to herself.
