Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 43 The Cannon Fodder Maid's Counterattack to Become the Mistress 8
Hearing Li Yunshu's words, the doting old lady exclaimed with relief, "That's good, that's good! Luckily, she's not married yet!"
Li Yunshu: "..."
She had indeed underestimated the old lady's affection for Xu Yanqing.
Even if Ning'er and Afu were already married, she would still try her best to find a way to cure her precious grandson's illness, no matter what.
The second wife also said, "Yes, they're not married yet, so it doesn't matter. We can just find another maid for Afu later."
Before Li Yunshu could speak, Jing'er behind her couldn't hold back any longer.
Jing'er, fearing that Li Yunshu would agree, quickly said, "Young Madam, Ning'er is in love with Afu, how can we just break them up?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yunshu turned around and glanced at the two people behind her: "Jing'er makes a good point. Ning'er, what do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Ning, who had been keeping his head down and pretending to be a quail, suddenly walked into the hall and knelt down in front of the old lady.
She said, "Grandma, young mistress, actually... this servant has never been in love with Afu."
Upon hearing this, Jing'er immediately retorted, "Didn't you say what Xin Yue Afu said yourself? The young master and young mistress were both there at the time, so why did you change your mind?"
Li Yunshu nodded: "Yes, Ning'er, you silly girl, that day you said you liked Afu and wanted to marry him, how come you changed your mind as soon as the second young master asked to marry you today?"
Upon hearing these words, the crowd looked at Qi Ning with a hint of disdain.
This girl has impure thoughts and is greedy for wealth. She actually changed her mind and wanted to abandon her original fiancé just because the second young master took a liking to her.
Everyone knows that although Ning'er is clever, she is too fierce and not as gentle and kind as Jing'er.
Now it seems that she not only has a bad temper, but is also fickle. Naturally, the old lady and the second wife don't think much of her character.
Even if she reluctantly agreed to let them be together because of Xu Yanqing's illness, her impression of her was still not good.
Qi Ning looked aggrieved: "Young Madam, do you remember when you first proposed to arrange a marriage for me, I was unwilling. At that time, I said that I would rather serve by Young Madam's side for the rest of my life."
As she spoke, she looked at Jing'er.
"Later, it was Sister Jing'er who suspected me. She said that I didn't want to get married because I had ulterior motives and wanted to stay and be the young master's concubine."
"I was afraid that the young mistress would believe Sister Jing'er, so I had no choice but to reluctantly agree and even lied about liking Afu, just so that the young mistress wouldn't misunderstand."
After hearing her reasonable explanation, everyone's opinion changed.
If Ning'er truly loved Afu and willingly married him, but then abandoned him for power, then her character was indeed flawed.
But if, as she explained, she didn't want to marry Afu willingly, then it's only natural that she wants to follow Xu Yanqing now.
Yao Zhiying, who had been quietly watching the commotion, began to get excited. She hadn't seen any trouble around Li Yunshu in a long time.
Yao Zhiying said meaningfully, "Sister-in-law, I was wondering why my brother hasn't taken any concubines or maids since you came into the family. I didn't expect you to be so jealous that you even suspect and guard against your own maids who came with you as part of your dowry."
"You disregard their wishes and force them into marriages, so they don't dare to refuse. No wonder Jing'er, the bride, doesn't have a single smile on her face."
Li Yunshu's face darkened. Her public image had always been that of a dignified, virtuous, kind, and tolerant person. How could she be labeled as "jealous"?
"Third sister-in-law, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. As for marriage and taking concubines, I have always followed my husband's own wishes."
As she spoke, she looked at the young master beside her.
Fortunately, the young master immediately spoke up to defend her: "That's right, it's just that I don't want to take a wife or concubine, it has nothing to do with Yun Shu."
Yao Zhiying persisted, sarcastically saying, "What man doesn't want to take a concubine? Even if my elder brother doesn't have this intention, as a virtuous mistress, my sister-in-law should take the initiative to arrange it for him."
"okay."
The old lady couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted, "Zhiying, say less."
When Yao Zhiying saw that the old lady had spoken, she reluctantly replied, "Yes, Grandmother."
The old lady looked at Li Yunshu: "Yunshu, let's deal with the immediate problem first."
In the old lady's opinion, Xu Yanqing's matter was still the most important.
Li Yunshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes."
She looked at Qi Ning, who was still kneeling in the hall, and said with a hint of reproach in her voice, "Ning'er, really, if you don't want to, why don't you explain it to me clearly? Even if Jing'er is gossipy and suspicious of you, as long as you explain it clearly, I won't misunderstand you."
Qi Ning sneered inwardly.
Li Yunshu's words were truly dignified. In the original story, the original owner had also explained, but Li Yunshu was still suspicious and wary, adhering to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," and married off the original owner.
On the surface, Qi Ning naturally bowed her head and admitted her mistake: "Yes, it's all my fault for not explaining things clearly to the young mistress."
"Since it's all a misunderstanding, that's good," the old lady said.
"Yes, Grandmother."
Li Yunshu echoed, realizing that the old lady genuinely wanted to facilitate this matter for Xu Yanqing's sake.
She quickly considered the matter in her mind and decided to go with the flow and do the old lady and the second wife a favor.
As long as Ning'er can get married and stop bothering Xu Yanzong, that's fine.
Li Yunshu smiled and said, "Fortunately, they haven't gotten married yet. At the time, Afu also said that he was fine with marrying anyone. Since that's the case, I'll make another arrangement for Afu later."
Upon hearing this tone, Jing'er knew that Li Yunshu was about to agree, and she immediately felt anxious.
"Young Madam, shouldn't we at least ask Ah Fu's opinion on this matter?"
“This…” Li Yunshu did not immediately object, but looked at Xu Yanzong beside her.
“Husband, what do you think? After all, Afu is one of your men.”
Xu Yanzong originally planned to pay his respects to the old lady and then go to the shop, but he didn't leave for a while because Xu Yanqing suddenly arrived.
At this moment, Afu was still waiting for him at the entrance of Shouan Hall.
Hearing Li Yunshu's words, Xu Yanzong didn't think much of it and said directly, "Afu is right at the door. Let him in for questioning."
"Slave, go now."
Upon hearing this, Jing'er immediately went out to call Afu in.
After Afu entered, he first knelt down and bowed.
Li Yunshu looked at him and asked, "Afu, did you hear what the masters were saying at the door just now?"
Afu replied, "This servant heard you."
"Alright, what are your thoughts?"
