Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder She Wants to Be a Vicious Female Supporting Role
Chapter 102: The Marquis’s Wife Faking Her Death (6)
If the original body, who was unaware of the situation, was here, she might have been controlled by guilt and hatred.
But the one who is here now is her, Lan Xin, and Lan Xin will not tolerate this heartless old woman.
Lan Xin was in no mood to continue acting with this old witch, so she pushed her away and held her hand tightly.
He said coldly, "Whether your son was killed by me or not, you know it best in your heart. Stop doing such heartless things. My Lan family doesn't owe your Mu family anything!"
Madam Hou's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She looked at Lan Xin in shock, her words stuttering. "Lan Xin, you...you suddenly...you suddenly said this...what do you mean?"
She was a little suspicious whether Lan Xin knew that her son was just faking his death?
Lan Xin looked at the panic on Madam Hou's face and sneered, "What do you mean? It means literally. What are you afraid of, mother-in-law?"
Madam Hou dodged her gaze, as if trying to hide her guilt. She raised her voice and said loudly, "I don't know what you're talking about, Lan Xin. Don't talk nonsense here!"
"nonsense?"
Lan Xin raised an eyebrow. "I have no interest in arguing with you about nonsense. Since I've already said I'm leaving, I naturally won't stay in your shabby mansion anymore. My dowry will be moved back to the general soon."
"no!"
When Madam Hou heard that Lan Xin was going to move all the dowry away, she immediately became anxious, "If you want to leave, I won't stop you, but you must not move all the dowry away, otherwise..."
In fact...
Ever since the old marquis passed away, his concubines and illegitimate sons and daughters were driven out by the old marquis's wife and Mu Ziyi, mother and son.
The only ones left in the Marquis' Mansion were the mother and son who were not good at running the business. The old lady of the Marquis and Mu Ziyi were both people who only knew how to squander money and enjoy themselves. The huge Marquis' Mansion had actually long been in decline under their hands, and was no longer as prosperous as when the old Marquis was alive.
The reason they planned all this was mainly because they were attracted by Lan Xin's identity as an orphan and the huge wealth of the general's mansion behind her, so that Lan Xin would wholeheartedly support their family's life of wealth and glory.
Now, when she heard that Lan Xin was going to move all the dowry away, Mrs. Hou felt that this was more painful than cutting her flesh with a knife.
Lan Xin looked at Madam Hou expressionlessly, "What else do you want?"
As long as Lan Xin is around, the old witch, Madam Hou, will never be able to get any family wealth from her to secretly support Mu Ziyi and let him pamper his mistress.
Lan Xin would not be as foolish as her original self, trying her best to please Old Madam Hou with her dowry.
In her previous life, Madam Hou despised the various rare treasures presented to her by her original body, but at the same time she used these precious items to secretly support Mu Ziyi, allowing Mu Ziyi to live a wealthy and comfortable life even outside.
Madam Hou looked at Lan Xin's expressionless face and felt a little timid. However, thinking of her own life of wealth and splendor, she gritted her teeth and threatened: "If you move all the dowry away, I will have people go to the streets and say that you abused your mother-in-law."
After the Marquis's wife finished speaking, she saw that Lan Xin just stared at her without saying anything. She thought she was intimidating her and revealed a smug look on her face. "So? Are you scared now, Lan Xin? If you don't want to be known as an unfilial person, you'd better stay in the Marquis' Mansion and be a widow for my son for the rest of his life."
"Also, now that you've married into our mansion, you're a member of ours. Your dowry is our property. Hand over the key to the room where your dowry is stored. From now on, I'll be the one keeping your dowry for you."
Lan Xin looked at Madam Hou's greedy face and felt extremely disgusted. It was the first time she had seen such a shameless person. She couldn't help but sneer, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who cares about what others think?"
"Although you can accuse me of mistreating my mother-in-law, I have something to say that is not meant to slander you. I just wonder if my mother-in-law will be able to handle it if everyone knows about it."
"whats the matter?"
Old Madam Hou looked at Lan Xin with some confusion, wondering what she knew about her. Although she had done a lot of bad things, Lan Xin was not often in their house, so she should know nothing.
Lan Xin had no interest in talking nonsense with her, and instead asked bluntly, "Isn't Mu Ziyi the old marquis's biological child?"
"You bullshit!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Hou became extremely emotional. "Yier is the old marquis's child. Stop slandering him here."
"I slandered people?"
Lan Xin looked at her sarcastically, "Your old lover is still alive, right? If people heard that Mu Ziyi was your old lover's child, would they be curious about whether they looked alike? If I remember correctly, Mu Ziyi looks about 70% similar to your old lover's cousin!"
After hearing Lan Xin's words, Madam Hou fell to the ground. Any hope she had had was now gone. She pointed at Lan Xin with a trembling finger and said tremblingly, "How...how did you...how did you know?"
Old Madam Hou was really terrified now. She had kept this secret from even the old Marquis, so how did Lan Xin know about it?
The reason why Lan Xin knew this secret was naturally because she saw it from the original body's memory.
In the previous life, the main reason why Madam Hou was so eager to poison the original body was that when the original body went to deliver something to Madam Hou, she accidentally learned that Mu Ziyi was not actually the old marquis's child, but the child of Madam Hou and her cousin.
It’s true that like mother, like son!
One used the old marquis's money to support his lover's child, and the other used the money of his original wife, who was legally his, to support his mistress.
"How do I know?"
Lan Xin collected her thoughts and squatted down, looking at the terrified old witch in front of her. She curled her lips and sneered, "This, mother-in-law, you don't need to know. Now if mother-in-law wants everyone to know your secret, you can go to the streets and slander me for abusing you."
Lan Xin patted Madam Hou's well-maintained face with some disdain, and said slowly, "However, I can eat anything, but I will never eat anything that is unfair to me."
"Before you slander me, mother-in-law, you'd better think carefully. I will prove your slander. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself! Haha..."
