Chapter 182 The Madam is Not Her



Chapter 182 The Madam is Not Her

Shen's anger was not without reason. This was not the first time that Xia Liu had attacked Yan'er. Now that A Ling had divorced him, he was still thinking about causing trouble for Yan'er!

Tu Ling's face turned even uglier when he heard what Shen said, and he immediately started to pack and put on his clothes. He was determined not to let Xia Liu off the hook this time.

Tu Xiao lived a little further away, but he arrived faster than Xia Liu and Yang Jin.

"What's going on? Sister Yanxiang, has something happened?" Tu Xiao had obviously only tidied himself up slightly, his hair was still a little messy, but his expression was anxious.

Xia Yanxiang was very calm, and even had a smile on her face: "Don't worry, brother, I'm fine, but there is someone, and something will happen soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Liu and Yang Jin arrived.

"What happened again?" Xia Liu was obviously very dissatisfied with Xia Yanxiang. Every time something happened to Xia Yanxiang, it was always Xia Yanxiang who got into trouble. In the past, it happened at a banquet in the palace. Now, even if Xia Yanxiang is no longer the daughter of the Xia family, why does something happen again?

It is obvious that Tu Ling is extremely dissatisfied with Xia Liu now, and the one who is even quicker than her is Shen.

"What does the Lord Minister mean by this? Are we looking for trouble? We are just staying here for a day or two, but the Lord Minister is so impatient to punish us?" Shen wanted to turn the entire Xia Mansion upside down right now.

Xia Liu felt that Shen was simply inexplicable, this crazy woman: "What did you say!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Liu saw the servant lying on the ground and tied up. Not only Xia Liu, but also Yang Jin saw it.

Xia Liu didn't take care of the affairs in the backyard, so naturally he didn't recognize anyone. However, Yang Jin was the one who was in charge of the entire Xia Mansion's finances, so he recognized who this person was at a glance.

Just because he recognized him, Yang Jin's expression immediately changed and his eyes became unclear.

"Why don't you explain to me why this person sneaked into Ao Yanxuan's bedroom in the middle of the night?!" Tu Ling was really furious. Xia Liu was simply going too far!

"It was you who arranged the accommodation and servants. Why are you so afraid that we will find out the problems in the account books?"

"Or is it that the Minister wants to embarrass and harm his first wife and daughter, and is planning to attack us!"

Tu Ling spoke one sentence after another, accusing Xia Liu and Yang Jin with every word: "Xia Liu, do you really want to settle this privately? If you regret it, tell me as soon as possible!"

"Tu Ling, what are you crazy about?!" Xia Liu angrily scolded Tu Ling, "If I didn't want to settle this privately, would I let you yell at me here now?!"

"What do you mean now?! Are you sending people to ruin Yan'er's reputation? You are crazy!"

"What is Yan'er's current status? If something happens, can you afford it?!"

Seeing that the two seemed to be about to fight again, Tu Xiao quickly signaled Xia Yanxiang to go forward and hold Tu Ling in case anything really happened.

Before Xia Yanxiang could grab Tu Ling, Yang Jin grabbed Xia Liu first: "Master, don't be angry, deal with this matter first."

"Hmph!" Xia Liu really didn't want to let Tu Ling go just like that.

Tu Ling snorted when she saw Yang Jin intervene, her face full of coldness: "Second Aunt, since you are the head of the Xia Mansion now, why don't you tell me, this person was not a servant of the Xia Mansion before, how come he suddenly appeared in Ao Yanxuan?!"

Yang Jin was also very annoyed. Why did he cause trouble for her at this critical moment? However, now was not the time to talk about these things: "This man is a newly bought servant. Since the Madam wants to take the dowry servants away, the mansion will naturally buy some new people."

Yang Jin's apologetic smile annoyed Tu Ling: "Oh? Then Second Aunt, please tell me, how did this boy find Ao Yanxuan and even went into the bedroom?!"

Yang Jin was also cursing in his heart, how could Xia Jianxiang do such a stupid thing?

"This...we don't know either..."

Shen's anger grew even more intense. Xia Yanxiang tried to stop her several times but failed. "You didn't know?! How can you say you didn't know when something like this happened in the Xia Mansion?!"

"What? You deliberately sent a servant you've never seen before to break into the courtyard of the women. Do you have no dignity left in the Xia family?"

"It turns out that the aunt is in charge and is going to break the family rules!"

No matter how hard Yang Jin tried to endure it, he was so irritated by Shen's words that his face fell and his expression became quite ugly.

"If you can't give us an explanation today, I will expose this matter tomorrow. I want to see whether the Xia family can still save their reputation and whether the marriages of the children in the Xia family can have good results in the future!" Shen was furious and prepared to break up with him.

"Madam Right Prime Minister, please calm down..." Yang Jin tried to calm Shen down, but he didn't expect to be implicated by Shen.

"Shut up! You are just a concubine who is not worthy of being promoted to the position of mistress. Stop butting in here!"

Yang Jin was interrupted by Shen again and again, and was even humiliated by her. The peacemaker smile he had been trying to put on could no longer be maintained.

Xia Liu couldn't stand Shen's humiliation of Yang Jin. After all, humiliating Yang Jin was the same as humiliating him, or even worse: "Enough, if you have something to say, just say it. Why humiliate others?!"

"What kind of good thing are you?" Seeing Xia Liu rushing towards her, Shen Shi didn't tolerate him and started to curse him. "He even framed his own wife and daughter. The Shangshu has done a good job of favoring his concubine and killing his wife!"

"Sir Shangshu, please don't try to fool us about what happened tonight, otherwise the reputation of the Xia Mansion will be tarnished throughout the capital tomorrow!"

Xia Liu was scolded so much that she had no place to vent her anger. She was almost angry to death, so she could only deal with the matter quickly: "Someone, wake him up!"

Soon a basin of water was poured over the boy to wake him up.

When the servant opened his eyes, he saw several important figures standing in front of him. He was originally a little confused, but he immediately came to his senses.

"Master? Madam?" The servant shrank back in fear, his voice trembling, but he did not dare to raise his head.

He didn't know why he was knocked unconscious by Xia Yanxiang as soon as he came in, and now he couldn't remember anything when he was questioned.

"Who instructed you to enter Ao Yanxuan?" Tu Ling had never seen this servant before, so he naturally knew that the lady the servant was talking about was not her, but Yang Jin.

Yang Jin did a good job in these matters. Knowing that the divorce was a done deal, she had already started replacing the servants and even put on the airs of a principal wife in advance.

"No, no one..." At this point, there was nothing the servant didn't understand. This matter was definitely not going to work.

"You're talking nonsense! You've only been in the Xia Mansion for a few days, and you can accurately find Ao Yanxuan's bedroom. What a coincidence, we just happened to be staying in Ao Yanxuan today?!"
