Chapter 616 - 249 Angry_3
Zhuang Ruolan thought for a moment and then said, "No need, Yueyao seems to have a plan." Zhuang Ruolan always considered Lady Tang to be a clever person, but couldn’t understand why she would do such a foolish thing.
At dusk, Ma Chengteng returned. Upon receiving the news, Yueyao went to the study, knelt on the ground upon seeing Ma Chengteng, and said, "Uncle, I would like to move to the countryside manor after the New Year." She absolutely could not tolerate this incident. If she endured it this time, who knew how she would be mistreated in the future!
Ma Chengteng was shocked, "What’s the matter?" Yueyao had come to pay her respects in the morning and had been fine, so why the sudden change?
Tears streamed from Yueyao’s eyes as she said, "Uncle, I know I am disliked, and I don’t want to make this unpleasant. Please let me go to the countryside manor!"
Banging the table, Ma Chengteng said sternly, "Call Ma Yuan over, what exactly happened?" It looked as though she had been greatly wronged.
Ma Yuan was well aware of what happened in the mansion, and although he found the Second Madam’s actions somewhat improper, he hadn’t thought much about it. However, seeing the tear-streaked face of Yueyao in the study, he felt a chill. Ma Yuan never underestimated Yueyao, and seeing her like this, he knew this matter would not end well.
Upon hearing the whole story, Ma Chengteng’s expression was extremely ugly. He had always thought that Madam Tang was good, but had not expected such ridiculous behavior. Ma Chengteng sighed heavily, after all, she was a merchant’s daughter and did not understand propriety.
Turning to Yueyao, Ma Chengteng said, "Yueyao, go back first, rest assured, Uncle will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
Only then did Yueyao wipe away her tears and leave.
Xiang Wei felt that this matter could only be considered a small affair and did not understand why Yueyao was so infuriated, "My lady, why did you have to say those words to Lord Ma?" In her impression, Yueyao was always kind-hearted, so why confront Madam Tang.
Yueyao sneered, "Madam Tang is not Lady Cheng; she must have had motives behind her actions. I must let her know that if she wants to plot against me, she must consider if she can endure the consequences."
After thinking for a moment, Xiang Wei chose to remain silent.
