Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Chapter 169 She Pushed Yu'er

The second wife's face was darker than the bottom of the nest, and she gritted her teeth secretly. She didn't say that she had an incurable disease, but she misinterpreted her meaning and said it in public. How would the old lady think?

The second wife looked at the old lady carefully, and sure enough, she saw that her face was gloomy and she was staring at her accusingly. The second wife lowered her head in fear.

The Second Madam frowned and said in dissatisfaction: "What nonsense are you talking about? The doctor just said that you are just weak from excessive blood loss. You just need to rest more. Who would curse themselves for no reason? Chuan'er, help your wife to the bed to rest."

The Second Madam glared at her and she stuck out her tongue. That playful look did not escape the Second Madam's eyes. She knew that she was deliberately provoking the Second Madam, but it was taboo to talk about one's own body.

"Since you have nothing to do, take a good rest. Wanhua, you should also go back and pack up. This set of clothes is not suitable for you. Mingwu and his colleagues have gone out to do some work. I have sent someone to inform him. I am afraid he will be back soon. He may even ask questions. You should all make some preparations."

The old lady glanced at Lin Yuxi, said a few appropriate words, and then walked out first. Yang Ruozhen and the others were already waiting in the front room. When they saw the old lady come out, they followed her out.

The second wife over there was unwilling to give in. She glared at Lin Yuxi who was lying on the bed, and walked away angrily with her sleeves swung. Lin Yuxi pushed Yang Chenchuan and winked at him, who rolled his eyes and pinched her nose.

He knew that his wife held a grudge, and she was thinking about revenge all of a sudden. However, he did not want to spoil her fun, so he got up and walked out immediately.

Just as the Second Wife hadn't walked out of the room yet, Yang Chenchuan threw his hidden weapon and hit her right on the Weizhong spot (commonly known as the dimple of the leg). The Second Wife's knees softened and she fell straight to her knees.

"Ah..." The second wife screamed in fear, grabbing with both hands randomly, and just happened to push down Yang Ruozhen who was in front of her. Yang Ruozhen pushed Yang Ruoyu who was in front of her. But who was walking in front of Yang Ruoyu?

It was the old lady! When the chain was pushed down, the old lady staggered. Fortunately, the maid quickly caught her, otherwise she would have fallen down.

The old lady stood firm and turned her head to glare at the culprit behind her. Yang Ruoyu was lying on the ground with a pale face. Even the maid came to help her legs and it took several attempts to stabilize them. But she didn't dare to stand up. Instead, she knelt on the ground and shook her head repeatedly, saying, "It wasn't me, grandma, it wasn't me, it was... someone pushed Yu'er, Yu'er didn't mean it."

Normally the old lady treated her quite kindly, but this time she had offended her elder after all, and she didn't know what punishment she would receive. Thinking of this, Yang Ruoyu began to sob.

The old lady's eyes were about to spit fire, and she pointed at the people behind her and cursed, "You... evil-hearted people, you wish I could die soon so you can divide up the family property, right?"

The old lady rarely got angry. Even Yang Ruozhen and Yang Ruoyu saw her lose her temper for the first time. They were so scared that they trembled and couldn't utter a word. The second wife struggled to stand up with the help of the maid's hand, her face full of shock and fear.

The old lady holds 80% of the family's wealth, and she has always been partial to the first wife. If you offend her, she might get angry with the second wife and not give her a share of the family property. Then all her calculations for so many years will be in vain. That won't do!

Thinking of this, the second wife pushed the maid away, knelt on the ground and cried: "Mother, what are you saying in anger? I would not dare to do anything to harm you even if I had a hundred courage. I was walking just now, and I don't know what hit my foot and I fell. I didn't mean to do it."

The old lady was over sixty years old. She used to be a peasant woman and was in good health, but now she was not young anymore and had lived a life of luxury for many years, so her body had become weak. In addition, she almost lost her life today and was frightened. This push really broke her tense nerves and she fainted on the spot.

As luck would have it, at the moment when the old lady fainted, the eldest master rushed into Tingyu Pavilion and saw the old lady roll her eyes and collapse on the maid. He was so scared that his legs went limp. He hurried over to help her and shouted, "Go get a doctor!"

The servant who had been following behind dared not be negligent and ran away like the wind.

The master was discussing with his subordinates the inspection tour of eight prefectures in March next year, but he had no idea what to do when a servant came to report that something big had happened at home. He was so scared that he dropped his work and rushed home. He didn't expect to see this scene as soon as he entered the door, and his anger suddenly flared up.

"What is going on?" The master looked coldly at the three people kneeling on the ground. While questioning, he also asked someone to help the old lady into the house.

Seeing the cold face of the eldest master, Yang Ruozhen actually started to cry, while Yang Ruoyu was so scared that she hid in the arms of the second wife and dared not look at the eldest master's face. The second wife also felt a little unnatural and said to the eldest master with shame: "Brother, it's my sister-in-law's fault, it has nothing to do with Ruoyu."

The second wife only said that it had nothing to do with Yang Ruoyu, but she didn't say that it had nothing to do with Yang Ruozhen.

The eldest lady's eyes turned cold when she heard this. What was the big deal? It was clearly her problem. The second wife couldn't stand and pushed Ruozhen down, which led to her bumping into Ruoyu. She first admitted her mistake, and then dragged Ruoyu into the water.

Seeing Yang Ruozhen crying like a tearful child, the Madam felt heartbroken. She bowed to the Master and said:

"Master, it was definitely my sister-in-law's fault. She was just walking and somehow pushed Ruozhen down. Ruoyu was walking in front of her and she accidentally bumped into her. Mother was frightened today and was almost knocked down. Mother is old, how could she endure such a torment?"

The first wife lightly pushed all the faults onto the second wife. The first master glared at the second wife with a sullen face, but didn't say much to blame her. He just snorted coldly: "Nonsense!"

He probably cared about her status and couldn't blame her, but the fact that the eldest master didn't care about her didn't mean that the matter was over. The eldest master glanced at the two maids behind the second wife and scolded:

"How do you do your job? You saw your master fall and didn't help her in time. Now you are so tired that the old lady fainted. What crime should you be punished for?"

The two maids were close to the Second Madam and were usually very smart. But the Second Madam fell so quickly just now that before they could react, the old lady was hit by the Third Madam.

The two maids were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed fiercely, shouting, "Master, spare our lives!"

The master's face was cold: "For not serving you well, drag him down and give him 20 strokes of the cane, and you are not allowed to apply medicine for three days."

The two maids were so frightened when they heard this that they cried out, "Master, please spare us, this has nothing to do with us, Madam, please save us!"

Twenty strokes of the cane, they would be half dead or their skin would be torn and bruised, and they were not allowed to apply medicine for three days, wouldn't that be life-threatening?

They didn't do anything. It was clearly the Second Wife who fell down, so why were they the ones being punished?

After the eldest master finished speaking, he walked into the house without even looking at them. Punishing the second wife's maid was also a slap in her face.
