"Alright, Xin Yu, stop crying. If you have anything to say, just say it. Grandmother is here. She will definitely help you.”
Wen Muzhen stepped forward and gently wiped Xin Yu's tears with a handkerchief.
Her voice was soft and gentle. It was a special pleasure to hear.
" Young Miss, sob sob…"
Xin Yu cried even harder. As she cried, she stole a glance at Wen Yuanyuan. Then, she put on a face that looked like she had something to say but didn't dare to say it out loud.
Wen Yuanyuan found it very funny. Although she really didn't like this attitude, she had to admit that the effect was very good. In just a short while, she vaguely felt a few pairs of puzzled eyes fall on her.
It was as if she didn't know anything. She stood there calmly, looking as if she couldn't be struck by lightning.
For some reason, Xin Yu felt a little uneasy when she saw her unmoved expression and began to think of retreating.
Along the way, she had suffered a lot and also witnessed Wen Yuanyuan's bloodless means. She had been dealt with extremely miserably by her. Although she would not die, it was enough to torture her.
"Xin Yu, if you have something to say, just say it. If you really feel wronged, I will help you. If you just barge in for no reason and disturb the prince, even if I forgive you, as your master, I will not!”Wen Muzhen said firmly.
Xin Yu's body trembled when she heard this. That's right, she had already barged in. There was no turning back. Now, she could only brace herself and continue!
"I beg Old Furen to make a decision. This servant, this servant was previously ordered to welcome Second Young Lady back to the residence. Perhaps this servant did something wrong at a young age and offended Second Young Lady, so Second Young Lady poured a bucket of cold water on this servant. Although this servant is a lowly person, I am still made of flesh and blood, so this servant fell ill…"
" Second Young Lady disliked this servant dragging the journey and intended to leave this servant on the way…After returning to the residence, Second Young Lady did not allow this servant to see a doctor. Originally, it was just a small cold, but now this servant is half dead…This servant, this servant really has no other way. This servant does not want to die, so I boldly came to ask Old Furen for justice…"
Xin Yu's words caused the entire hall to fall silent, and complicated gazes landed on Wen Yuanyuan.
"Nonsense! What a load of lies! On the way here, Miss specially hired a doctor to treat you. Before returning to the capital, your illness had already been cured. Now that you're sick, you're pushing all the blame onto Miss. Xin Yu, what are your intentions?”
Mrs. Yang was obviously furious. She took a breath and reprimanded,"Why did Young Lady pour cold water on you that day? It's because you took cold water to bathe Miss, and Miss said a few words to you, so you argued with Miss and accidentally poured cold water on her.”
"Mrs. Yang, you're really good at twisting black and white. Cough cough…You're asking me what my intentions are? What intentions could this servant have? If it wasn't that I couldn't live on, why would I risk it all?”Xin Yu said as she coughed.
"Don't confuse the public!" Mrs. Yang hated her so much that she wanted to go up and beat this wretched girl to death!
Xin Yu shook her head with tears in her eyes." Nanny, I know that you're Madam's woman and that you love Second Miss as much as you love her. But Nanny, we must speak with a conscience. This servant's life is cheap, but it's still a human life. How can this servant use this life to slander Second Miss? This servant is only a servant girl, and has no enmity with the Second Young Lady. This servant is only asking for a way out…"
"You!"
"Alright, shut up! The honored guest is still here. What are you two arguing about? Get out of here. We'll talk about it later!”
The old madam had always loved her face the most. She had already tolerated Nanny Yang and Xin Yu to the maximum. Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more outrageous, she felt her old face burning with pain. She could not hold it in any longer and chased them out.
"Grandmother, don't be angry.”Wen Muzhen quickly stepped forward to calm the old madam down before turning to Xin Yu,"You go down first. We'll talk about this later.”
Xin Yu hesitated and did not get up. Her face was full of worry and fear as she secretly glanced at Wen Yuanyuan. Her meaning was very obvious.
Wen Muzhen sighed," You may leave, Xin Yu. You can return to Grandmother's Fortune Court first."”
Xin Yu heaved a sigh of relief." Thank you, Old Madam. Thank you, Eldest Miss."”
Just as Xin Yu was about to stand up and leave, she heard a clear and emotionless voice say,""Wait!"
Looking over, the owner of the voice was actually Wen Yuanyuan, who abused the servant girl and almost killed her!
The old madam was already embarrassed because of this and was dissatisfied with Wen Yuanyuan, the one who started it. She had just returned and caused such a scene in front of Prince Yan. Now that she heard her voice, she was even more displeased with her.
"What do you want to do?" he asked with a frown.”
His voice was filled with obvious displeasure.
Wang and Wen Changxian looked worriedly at Wen Yuanyuan, thinking about how to smooth things over.
Unexpectedly, they were extremely worried, but Wen Yuanyuan was calm. There was no panic on her small face, as if everything that happened had nothing to do with her.
"Grandmother, don't be angry. Let granddaughter say a few words.”
"If you have anything to say, say it later. Prince Yan is here, don't be rude!”The old madam's words were full of warning.
Wen Yuanyuan smiled," It's because Prince Yan is here that I have to say it.”
"You!"
Wen Yuanyuan bent her knees," Grandmother, our High Duke's Public House is a first-class noble in Yan Jin. Although granddaughter has been raised in the mountains since she was young and doesn't know much, on the way back, my brother and Granny Yang have taught her a lot. I know that everyone values their reputation. Her granddaughter had been abducted since she was young and had been a child bride to a fool for several years. She knew that her background was extremely embarrassing. Her granddaughter was really uneasy, but this matter was not something that her granddaughter could control. Her granddaughter was also a victim.”
"All of this is in the past. It's useless to talk about it. However, what happened just now concerns my granddaughter and the reputation of the High Duke's Public House. I can't stay out of it. If they did not clarify it now, when the news spread, outsiders would only say that the High Duke's Public House did not teach their daughter well. At that time, it would be a small matter if the granddaughter lost face, but it would be a big matter if the High Duke's Public House lost face!”
His words were powerful and forceful, making people subconsciously believe him.
Moreover, her words were all for the sake of the High Duke's Public House's reputation. Even the old madam's expression softened a lot.
"Yuan 'er, do you know what you're doing?”
Wen Yuanyuan saw the old madam's reaction and knew that his words had hit the bottom of her heart. He nodded firmly," I know."”
