Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

Chapter 185 Send You to Be My Aunt

Jing'an Marquis Mansion, Songhe Hall.

Old Madam Xie sat upright on the chaise longue, her face frosty, her icy eyes like sharp arrows shooting towards An.

Xie Jingliang stood beside Old Madam Xie. He frowned and looked at An, his mind hesitating. Was it really An who was responsible for Man'er's disappearance?

An knelt on the ground, her back straight, her eyes looking straight at Old Lady Xie and Xie Jingliang, and she said in a deep voice: "Mother-in-law, Xiaohong has brought such harm to Xuan'er that I, your daughter-in-law, was so angry that I ordered Xiaohong to be killed."

"But Man'er's disappearance has nothing to do with my daughter-in-law. Aunt Luo died, and then there was the scandal at the chrysanthemum viewing banquet. That bitch must have escaped the mansion on her own."

"Crack~"

Madam Xie slammed the table and shouted, "You still dare to quibble after all this! Wasn't the maid assigned to guard the courtyard by you? Wasn't it your order to send rotten rice to Man'er? Who else but you could have taken her away without anyone noticing?"

Xie Jingliang hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "An, why don't you tell us where Man'er is and stop making mother angry!" He quickly winked at An.

An shook her head vigorously and said aggrievedly, "Master, we have been married for so many years, you know my temper, I really don't know where Man'er is..."

Madam Xie's chest was boiling with anger. She pointed her finger at An and said angrily, "Okay, okay, I always thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to be so two-faced. It's a pity that I only saw your true face today!"

An's face turned pale with shock. She looked at Old Madam Xie in shock and choked with sobs, "Mother-in-law, I have worked so hard for the Marquis' Mansion for so many years, mother-in-law..."

Old Madam Xie waved her hand and interrupted, "Now Xuan'er is idle all day, Qi'er is scheming and causing trouble for her sisters, and Man'er has disappeared again. None of Jingliang's children are good for anything. As the saying goes, marry a virtuous wife. I was short-sighted back then!"

She turned to look at Xie Jingliang and said in a deep voice, "Today I will give Dujuan and Haitang to you as concubines. You must quickly expand our Xie family!"

Dujuan and Haitang are the top maids serving Old Madam Xie. Both of them are 28 years old and pretty.

An's pupils suddenly shrank. Concubine Luo was like a thorn that had been lingering in her heart for many years. She had finally waited for Concubine Luo to commit suicide, so why did her mother-in-law force two more concubines in? Besides, those two were young and beautiful, and she had no chance of defeating them.

Xie Jingliang's face flushed with excitement. He had been thinking about those two beautiful maids for a long time. He thought his mother had kept them for his elder brother, but he didn't expect that she would give them to him today!

The corners of his mouth curled up high, and he said loudly: "Yes, thank you mother, your son will definitely work hard to let you hold your grandson as soon as possible!"

An originally expected Xie Jingliang to refuse. She believed that she and Xie Jingliang had supported each other for nearly twenty years and had a good relationship and a mutual understanding. But she didn't expect Xie Jingliang to agree without hesitation?!

She stood up suddenly and said angrily: "No!"

Xie Jingliang glanced at her and said in a deep voice, "How can you have a say here? I haven't settled the score with you for those dirty things you did. Hurry back to your courtyard and reflect on yourself!"

An was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her face turned ashen and she waved her sleeves as she returned to her yard. However, she secretly swore in her heart that she would never let those two vixens have an easy time!

After An left, Xie Jingliang smiled apologetically and said, "Mother, An is just like that. Don't take it to heart."

Madam Xie looked gloomy and waved her hand, saying, "Alright, go with Madam Xu to get the people! Don't be an eyesore here..."

Xie Jingliang smiled and said, "Yes, mother, I'll take my leave." After saying that, he couldn't wait to leave.

Staring at Xie Jingliang's departing back, Old Lady Xie couldn't help but snort coldly. She knew very well the wicked mind of her second son.

The second daughter-in-law, An, has been in charge of the family for several years, but her ability has not improved much, but her ambition has grown. If the eldest princess marries in in the future, there will definitely be conflicts between the two. It is better to dampen her arrogance now.

While Old Madam Xie was thinking about the things in the mansion, Xie Qingyao walked into Songhe Hall gracefully. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her bright eyes revealed shyness and joy.

She smiled brightly at Old Madam Xie and called softly, "Grandma!"

Mrs. Xie was in high spirits when she saw her graceful and charming granddaughter. She smiled and jokingly asked, "What good thing happened to Yao'er? Why are you so happy?"

Xie Qingyao sat down beside Old Madam Xie, hugged her arm affectionately, and said shyly, "Grandma, the Third Prince has invited Yao'er to go to Emerald Lake for a trip..."

She looked at Old Madam Xie with admiration and said hesitantly, "Grandma, should Yao'er go?"

Old Madam Xie held Xie Qingyao's hand and said with a smile, "Of course you should go. Grandmother will have someone prepare clothes and jewelry for Yao'er. Don't worry, Yao'er."

Xie Qingyao nodded shyly. She rolled her eyes and frowned slightly as she said, "Grandma, this afternoon a maid went to Yaofang Pavilion to search for Sister Man'er. What happened to her?"

Mrs. Xie's expression immediately darkened. She said calmly, "Man'er is gone. Don't mention her anymore." She paused and said coldly, "Stay away from your Second Aunt!"

Xie Qingyao didn't ask why, but nodded obediently. She hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Grandma, bad things have been happening frequently in the mansion recently, and now Sister Man'er is..."

"Yao'er heard that the Xuanjing Temple outside Shengjing City is very effective. Why don't we go there tomorrow to burn some incense and pray for good fortune for the Marquis's Mansion and for Sister Man'er as well. After all, we are sisters."

Old Madam Xie's heart moved slightly. Xie Jingyuan and the eldest princess, and Xie Qingyao and the third prince, these two matters really needed blessings. She patted Xie Qingyao's hand and said with a smile: "Yao'er is still thoughtful. Then let's go to Xuanjing Temple tomorrow."

Xie Qingyao's eyes sparkled with joy as she said happily, "Grandma, you agree? That's great."

She took Madam Xie's hand and chuckled, "Let all the sisters in the mansion go together. I heard that Xuan Jingguan can predict marriages, so it's a good opportunity to do it for us all."

Madam Xie tapped Xie Qingyao's forehead and said softly, "You, you always think about those sisters in everything. Okay, take them with you!"

Xie Qingyao was filled with ecstasy. Her grandmother had agreed so easily! She secretly vowed that this time she would definitely snatch Xie Qingli's Phoenix Fate from her and then kill her completely!

Xie Qingyao walked out of Songhe Hall with brisk steps. She took Xiaotao and Hongshang and walked quickly towards Yaofang Pavilion.

Inside Yaofang Pavilion, Aunt Hua paced back and forth anxiously. Seeing Xie Qingyao return, she hurriedly asked, "Yao'er, how are you?"

Xie Qingyao chuckled and said, "Grandma, don't you believe in my ability? I just mentioned it briefly, and she immediately agreed. She will leave for Xuanjing Temple tomorrow. Is there any problem with Grandma?"

Aunt Hua's eyes lit up with joy as she said, "Okay, okay, Grandma, I'll arrange it right away. It will definitely be a success!"

She took a few steps toward the door, then suddenly stopped and asked worriedly, "Yao'er, have you heard from your mother and brother these days? Grandmother is busy searching for the secret technique to borrow life, and we haven't heard from them for several days..."
