Chapter 1398 - 1400: Very Satisfying_1
"Mother, let’s not argue with her too much for now," Yang Chuxia let out a sigh and said, "I’ve already sent someone to notify Grandmother. She should be arriving later, and this matter must be discussed in front of Grandmother anyway."
Ms. Qian of Wang Family and Qian Xiaoqing were clearly trying to cause trouble. With just a few simple questions, Qian Xiaoqing didn’t have a clear answer for any of them. Her aunty was not a fool; how could she not distinguish the truth? But she was still protecting Qian Xiaoqing; so, they had no choice but to ask Grandmother to come.
In the past, Ms. Qian of Wang Family was somewhat intimidated by Ms. Liu of Wang Family, but now she was no longer afraid. Whether her niece’s words were true or false, as long as the purse was in her hands, this matter had to be true.
"If it has to be discussed face-to-face, then so be it. I’d like her to see for herself how the oft praised good girl and her family really mistreat people."
With the protection of Ms. Qian of Wang Family, Qian Xiaoqing naturally was not afraid either, "Auntie, thank you for taking my side."
At these words from Qian Xiaoqing, Ms. Qian of Wang Family stiffened. Just from those few words, how could she not know whether Qian Xiaoqing was telling the truth or lying?
She had convinced herself that the purse was given to her by Yang Qingrui’s order, but in front of Xia Yun, she suddenly changed her story to Yang Qingrui personally delivering it to her. Not to mention anything else, even the timing was off, as she had taken her niece back to her maternal home on the last day of the month - how could Yang Qingrui have given the purse to her?
But what could be done? They had reached this point, and it might be better to go through with it than to suffer even more humiliation.
However, her niece had utterly disappointed her. She had actually spurned her own son in favor of Yang Qingrui. Yang Qingrui might have a handsome face, and the Yang Family might be wealthy, but she was her real aunt, who had treated her so well, yet she was still being manipulated.
What Qian Xiaoqing didn’t realize was that now Ms. Qian of Wang Family’s heart had turned cold. So when Qian Xiaoqing clutched her hand, Ms. Qian of Wang Family pinched her harshly.
With that one pinch, Qian Xiaoqing knew that Ms. Qian of Wang Family no longer believed her. But what did that matter? Compared to her cousin, Yang Qingrui was much better in every way.
Wealthy and with an official rank, and moreover, he was much better looking than her cousin.
She had been plotting this scheme in her mind ever since she "found" the purse, convincing herself that as long as she succeeded, she would be able to appease her aunt later, and her aunt would definitely forgive her.
As the event was temporarily halted, Yang Dachuan once again ordered the villagers to disperse.
He believed that anyone who wasn’t a fool would know the story was fabricated.
Who would suspect a different girl if she were involved, especially one who wasn’t like this kind of woman? But given Qian Xiaoqing’s status, the moment she spoke, no one was inclined to believe her, and then she changed her story – one moment it was a servant who delivered it, the next moment it was Yang Qingrui himself. Are you blind? Can’t you tell the difference between a servant and Yang Qingrui?
Ms. Liu of Wang Family arrived at Yangshu Village in the afternoon.
And coming with her was Wang Yongshan.
It was quite a coincidence. Before Yang Chuxia’s people could find Wang Yongshan, he had already returned home first.
But upon arriving home, he found it empty – not his son, granddaughter, or daughter-in-law were there.
When Yang Chuxia’s messenger relayed the news to him, he was so shocked he nearly fainted.
Ms. Liu of Wang Family was also embarrassed, her face turning a deep shade of red.
So when she arrived at the Yang Family’s place, the old lady didn’t wait for anyone to speak. Upon seeing Ms. Qian of Wang Family, she immediately slapped her across both cheeks.
Not only that, she also quickly slapped Qian Xiaoqing across the face.
Yang Chuxia watched, feeling quite satisfied. If not for her current condition, she would have delivered the slaps herself.
