Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

After I replied to Huai'an, Lingyu came to ask if I wanted to have dinner.

Meng Yunshang happened to be hungry, so she asked sisters Dangui and Lingyu to sit down and eat with her.

The four of them finished their dinner chatting and laughing, but Lu Chenxiao had not returned yet.

Meng Yunshang was not sleepy for the time being, so she asked the three of them to stay in the room to chat around the fire over tea.

During the conversation, Ling Yu mentioned Xuan Yi and Xuan San. Meng Yunshang was surprised to realize that she hadn't heard from them for a long time.

"Now there is no need for Xuan Yi to ask Fang Ruoruo any more questions. Hasn't he returned to his position yet?"

Ling Yu shook her head. "The prince has not yet given a clear order for them to return to their positions, so they probably aren't in a hurry."

"Yesterday, Xuan San came back and complained that Fang Ruoruo was deeply involved in this. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Xuan Yi to escape this time."

When Dan Gui heard this, she immediately asked curiously, "What about Xuan Yi? What does he think of Fang Ruoruo?"

Ling Yu glared at her in reproach, "I'm not Xuan Yi himself, how can I know what he thinks?"

Lingyin shook her head carelessly, "Well, Xuanyi always falls in love with every woman he meets. He is the type who can walk through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on him."

Dan Gui sighed softly, "That Fang Ruoruo is so pitiful."

Is Fang Ruoruo really pitiful?

Meng Yunshang frowned and thought deeply.

……

Unlike the peace in the General's Mansion, the Fang family was in chaos at this moment.

After the welcoming banquet, the first thing Aunt Liu did when she returned to the Fang family was to have all the masters and servants of the Fang family gathered together.

She told the whole story clearly about how Madam Fang had an affair with the host Xia Zhirong at Prince Heng's welcoming banquet and was caught red-handed by everyone.

Fang Shao and his two siblings did not go to Xia's house, so they did not know about this.

But their wives went with Mrs. Fang and understood that the truth of the matter was almost the same as what Aunt Liu said.

So when Aunt Liu announced that Madam Fang was unfaithful to her husband and unfit to be the mistress of the Fang family, they rarely raised any objection.

In their opinion, their mother-in-law was so embarrassed in public that if they still came forward to help, it would obviously be bad for their own reputation.

However, Fang Shao and Fang Ling were completely unable to do what they wanted.

Aunt Liu had already arranged people to deal with them, and if they had the slightest intention of standing up for Madam Fang, they would be suppressed by Aunt Liu's people.

Mrs. Fang, who was isolated and helpless, tried to explain that she did not mean it and that it was all an accident.

But no one listened to her explanation seriously, and no one believed in her innocence.

Therefore, when Aunt Liu announced in front of everyone that Madam Fang must be drowned in the pond in order to be worthy of the ancestors of the Fang family.

Everyone in the Fang family was just surprised, but did not express any opposition.

Aunt Liu saw that the situation was in her favor and took the opportunity to shout, "What are you all standing there for? Tie her up!"

The servants, who had been rubbing their hands in anticipation, approached Madam Fang with ferocious faces.

There were even two with lewd smiles in their eyes, "Madam, Madam, the master is stranded in the military camp and can't come back. If you are lonely, you can find a servant."

"That's right. At least the good things should be kept in the family. Why do you go to look for the old man outside?"

Aunt Liu was standing not far away and heard all the nonsense the two men said, but instead of stopping them, she allowed them to touch Madam Fang's waist while the chaos was going on.

"What are you going to do!"

Mrs. Fang was shocked and frightened.

When she learned that Prince Heng and his wife had handed her over to Liu, she became so angry that she fainted.

She thought that once she returned to the Fang family, she would be safe with her children supporting her.

But what’s going on with these people in front of me, and what is that wooden cage used for?

"Liu, you are so bold, how dare you be so presumptuous in front of me!"

"All of you get out of here! You dare to touch me, don't you want your hands anymore?"

But no matter how many times she shouted, no one paid any attention to her, let alone being wary of her like before.

Mrs. Fang panicked.

She shouted to Fang Shao and Fang Ling in the crowd, "Shao'er, Ling'er, help your mother."

"They are all bullying me, how can you just sit there and do nothing?"

Fang Shao looked at Madam Fang with sinister eyes, without any warmth in them.

Although Fang Ling was not as gloomy as him, his face was also full of anger.

"That's enough, mother. You have done such a shameful thing. You are sorry for my father and even more sorry for us brothers and sisters. I just want you to be put in a pig cage. Why are you screaming?"

"Pig cage?" When Mrs. Fang heard these words, her limbs instantly turned cold.

How could we let her be put in a pig cage!

How dare they.

"Liu, you are so vicious."

"Sister," Aunt Liu rolled her eyes at Madam Fang, "It's not that I'm vicious, it's that you're too shameless. I'm also thinking about the Fang family."

"There are so many unmarried men in our Fang family. We cannot let the scandal you caused affect their marriage and childbearing. So I have to let you down."

"Don't worry, I've already told everyone that after tonight, no one will know about Madam Fang who brought shame to the Fang family."

"How dare you! Liu, how dare you murder me like this? You will die a miserable death!"

Aunt Liu's face darkened and she slapped Madam Fang hard in the face.

"I've wanted to give you this slap for a long time. We are all the ones who gave birth to two sons for the master. Why should you be so high and mighty while we are born inferior to you?"

"Now that you have lowered yourself to low status, the Fang family will be taken over by mother and son from now on."

"No!" Madam Fang screamed loudly, but she was ultimately unable to resist the combined efforts of several strong servants to tie her up.

She was tied up and hung in a wooden cage.

The wooden cage was slowly immersed in the water. The lake water first wet her shoes and socks, and as it slowly rose, it soon flooded over her knees.

"Don't do this, I beg you."

Mrs. Fang begged for mercy in fear, but no one present dared to plead for her.

The wooden cage continued to sink.

Seeing that the lake water had already flooded Mrs. Fang's chest, a loud shout came from outside the crowd, "Stop!"

Mrs. Fang's eyes lit up and she shouted happily, "Ruoruo, you are here, please save me."

"Now you are the only one who can save me. Please help me quickly, Ruoruo. I don't know who else can help me except you."

Fang Ruoruo pushed through the crowd and rushed to the lake, but was stopped by Aunt Liu.

"Ruoruo, you must think it through. The woman in the lake was a slut who had an affair with a man outside her family, and was witnessed by the entire upper class circle of Jincheng. If you help her, you will be against the entire Fang family, and you will be laughed at by everyone in Jincheng. Are you sure you still want to help her?"

Fang Ruoruo's figure swayed slightly, and she said in a sad and angry tone, "But she is my mother."

Aunt Liu chuckled, "She is indeed your mother, you can save her if you want."

"really?"

"As long as you give up your status as a blessed woman and put her in the pig cage, I will release her immediately."

Fang Ruoruo's face turned pale, "Then I..."

"Life for life. If you want her to come out, you must go in."

"No, I can't die."

How could she be drowned like this before she had the chance to be together with Brother Xuan Yi forever, and in such a humiliating way as being put in a pig cage?

She doesn't want to.

Aunt Liu smiled coldly, not at all surprised by Fang Ruoruo's choice.

She reached out and pushed the man back violently, "Then move away and don't delay me from enforcing the law."

"Aunt Liu..." Fang Ruoruo still wanted to beg.

Aunt Liu sneered and asked her, "You are already a grown-up girl, it's time for you to get married. If the man knew that you had such a shameless mother, do you think he would dare to marry you?"

Fang Ruoruo's defense was completely broken.

No, she couldn't let Brother Xuan Yi know that her mother was having an affair in public.

She didn't want Brother Xuan Yi to look down on her.

Aunt Liu looked at her taking the initiative to retreat, and a smile of success flashed quickly in her eyes.

When she turned to look at the lake, her eyes suddenly became sharp and fierce, "Continue!"
