After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door
Chapter 401: Refusing to Admit
Lady Dingguo knew what Lady Duan was up to, so she raised her hand and slapped her again.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Whatever your bitch daughter does in the Duan family, no matter how she schemes or plays tricks, has nothing to do with me."
"But she should never, ever use such despicable means to scheme against my son."
The guests agreed with her words very much. Lady Dingguo was absolutely right. Using such dirty tricks on the Rong family was courting death.
"Madam Dingguo, this..." Madam Duan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "I wonder if we can talk about this in private?"
After all, she is her only daughter, and she must protect her no matter what.
Lady Dingguo was not buying it. She scoffed, "You want to talk to me privately? Are you worthy?"
"Even Lord Duan has to be polite in front of me. You are a second wife, and your own daughter has done such a thing. How dare you speak to me like this?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Duan pulled Miss Duan Er to the front and shouted, "Kneel down and admit your mistake and apologize!"
"Today, if you can't get the Rong family's forgiveness, you, you will get out of the Duan family!"
In the current situation, she must protect the master and the Duan family so that she can keep her hard-earned status and protect her daughter.
Unfortunately, Miss Duan Er failed to understand her mother's intention.
She cried so hard that her eyes were filled with tears and looked extremely pitiful. "Mom, I have never done such a thing. I really have never done such a thing."
"I know very well that I am not worthy of Prince Rong, so how could I be so foolish as to do such a thing and bring trouble to my father and the family."
"I wonder if someone is jealous of me..."
"Second sister, don't you just want to say that I was the one who framed you?" Miss Duan said in a faint voice.
"If I had money and means, I wouldn't even have a decent piece of clothing or jewelry at home."
Her eyes swept over what Madam Duan and Second Miss Duan were wearing. "The fabrics for your clothes and the jewelry you're wearing were all my mother's dowry."
"My stepmother is really good at coaxing people. Not long after she married in, she coaxed my scumbag father into giving you all of my mother's dowry, saying that you should help me manage it and give it to me after I get married."
Now that she had such a good opportunity, she must expose the ugly and vicious faces of the mother and son and take back all of her mother's dowry.
Now, the guests not only despised Mrs. Duan and Miss Duan Er, but also looked at them and their son with deep hatred.
"How shameless! A woman's dowry is private property, registered with the government. How dare they touch it? This is illegal!"
"They still have the nerve to wear the jewelry of Miss Duan's mother, and they are not afraid of being found by Madam Duan in their dreams at midnight."
"How could Lord Duan not know what the second wife did? I'm afraid he has been coveting the original wife's generous dowry for a long time, but was embarrassed to touch it, so he used this trick on the second wife."
Mrs. Duan and Miss Duan Er had never expected that Miss Duan Da would disregard the family's reputation and reveal this matter in public.
The mother and daughter's faces turned red, black and blue.
"That's not true. These are all the jewelry I bought. Boss, you're confused."
"Sister, why did you slander me and mother in public?"
Miss Duan chuckled twice, "My mother's dowry list has three copies in total, one of which is registered with the Jingzhao Prefecture government office."
"Did you buy these jewels yourself, or did they belong to my mother? You can find out by checking my mother's dowry list at the Jingzhao government office."
"My husband is the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture!" The wife of the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture stood up and glared at Madam Duan and Miss Duan Er.
"If you and your daughter make another excuse, I will immediately order the maid to go back and get Madam Duan's dowry list. We will know the truth after checking it."
"If you need help from the Dali Temple, my husband can help. He is the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple." The wife of the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple stood up.
There is also the wife of the Minister of Justice.
Now, Mrs. Duan and Miss Duan Er no longer dared to argue that they bought the jewelry.
This kind of thing can be found out with just a little investigation.
"There's no rush for this matter. Let's hand it over to the Jingzhao government office for a slow interrogation later." Lady Dingguo Duke spoke.
"To embezzle a woman's dowry and wear it so brazenly is to disregard the emperor and the law."
Mrs. Duan and Miss Duan Er were both scared.
The two were very proud before, as they could seize the generous dowry of Miss Duan's mother and torture her.
Now, they are as scared as they can be.
It is a serious crime to seize someone else's dowry.
The wife of Duke Dingguo snorted heavily, "Let's first talk about your daughter drugging my son."
"You and your daughter, don't think that I will give up just because I can divert my attention with the dowry issue."
Mrs. Duan glared at Miss Duan Er in reproach. This evil creature did such a thing in private without even telling her first.
With her help, today's matter will definitely be successful.
"Madam Dingguo, there is not enough evidence after all."
She insisted on this point, "Besides, that servant belongs to your Rong family. Who knows if he is a frame-up?"
Miss Duan nodded repeatedly, "That's right."
"Madam Dingguo, you can't wrongly accuse me like this without any other evidence."
She couldn't admit the current situation no matter what.
The wife of Duke Dingguo sneered, "Since you and your daughter still refuse to admit it, I have no choice but to use some extraordinary means."
"Come on, drag all the maids around this mother and daughter away and torture them severely!"
"I'd like to see if I can get some evidence out of you!"
Immediately, a servant came forward and forcibly dragged away the maids and servants of Madam Duan and Miss Duan Er.
"We can't do this..." Mrs. Duan wanted to stop it, but she couldn't.
She secretly twisted her daughter's arm, feeling anxious and afraid. This damn evil creature, why didn't she just apologize earlier, but she had to do this.
Miss Duan Er was even more frightened. She knew that even if the Rong family couldn't find out, her reputation would be ruined and no one would want her anymore.
Even so, she couldn't admit it.
She bit her lip and suppressed her panic and anxiety. As long as she didn't admit it, even the wife of Duke Dingguo couldn't do anything to her.
"Mom, this woman thinks that we can't do anything to her if she refuses to admit it." Rong Jing saw through her thoughts at a glance.
Lady Dingguo looked at her as if she were a filthy creature, "Does it really need us to deal with her?"
"If this matter reaches Lord Duan's ears, it would be strange if he didn't beat her to death."
"Besides, without the protection of the Duan family, many people would kill this mother and daughter. They have offended many people in the past."
She had heard a little bit about the mother and daughter bullying others by taking advantage of their power.
Mrs. Duan and Miss Duan's already pale faces became even paler.
Sudden--
Miss Duan rushed in front of Mu Baobao and reached out to grab her: "Little girl, you have such a good relationship with Prince Zheng, can you help me beg for mercy, okay?"
