BXBX NOVEL Chapter 485 - 485: Playing Big
Lady Yuan immediately called for someone to go to Censor Xiao’s house.
The main house was bustling with activity, but the dispute in the west room was already white-hot.
The Zhou Consortium had risen to prominence and was now unyielding. However, it was not because of her confidence, but because of her resentment. The paternal family fell, the elder brother was sentenced to execution, the fourth mother died, the father and brother’s official positions were stripped, the Zhou family’s direct line was completely crippled, those who married off were either deaf and did not dare to raise their heads in the Cat Palace, or hid to protect themselves.
If Chu Dalang fought a little, the couple would be happy. She did not want to provoke him and find trouble.
However, ever since Chu Dalang kicked her to the point of miscarriage, there was not much love left between husband and wife.
After that, she didn’t repent or admit her mistake. She even blamed her for being dismissed by the Emperor. Her in-laws were dissatisfied with her, her son complained, and the whole family was in chaos.
Chu Dalang wanted to molest Wang Qiang and thought that he had found a secluded place, but he was seen by others. In a few days, the news spread among the servants. When Madam Zhou heard this, she even had the heart to gnaw at Chu Dalang. Wang Shiwu’s wife was such a widow that he cared so much about her. He couldn’t even care about her at home?
He also thought that if Wang Qiong did not have the heart, why would she put on makeup and get close to others? Today, tomorrow, even if the person she wanted to hook up with was not Chu Dalang, she would not have the heart to do so.
Perhaps the two of them had fallen out and started fighting.
Suddenly, he grabbed two of his wives ‘tongues, and the servants hit twenty big boards.
When Chu Dalang returned to the manor, the two of them began to wrangle again. They cursed and pulled Wang Qiang to talk about things. The two of them had long had an ending.
Chu Dalang had been staring at Wang Qiang, but he didn’t manage to eat the meat that was already in his mouth. Wasn’t it because of Madam Zhou? If it wasn’t for her finding fault with Wang Qiangqiang and mistreating her son on so many small matters, would she have been able to chase him away? The widow returned to the Xie family, which could not be considered her maternal family. If she did not force it, who would do it?
If Wang Qiang did not leave and stayed in the Chu family, who knew if he would succeed after a long time?
All kinds of evil flames were vented by Madam Zhou. All kinds of vulgarities and evil words came out. Wang Qiang was demonized in the husband and wife’s words. They fought from evening to night, and from night to midnight. In the end, they were tired of scolding and broke up.
However, the servants in the courtyard heard what he said. Coupled with their own imagination, it was probably even more exciting than what they scolded. Originally, the person in charge of the Chu family was Madam Wang of the eldest branch. However, after the Wang family fell, Madam Wang’s health was not good enough, so only Madam Zhou could take over. This was unpopular in the Chu family. Madam Wang could not do it, so naturally, there was the second branch. Madam Xun of the third branch burned incense and worshipped Buddha. It was the same without her. It was not Zhou’s turn.
Moreover, the Zhou family had been in trouble recently, and they were all scandals. The servants of the Chu family gradually began to look down on them.
Not to mention that Chu Dalang did not give his wife any face. He pinched her every day and even kicked a pregnant mistress into miscarriage. How many servants could take such a mistress seriously?
In just a night, the news had spread throughout the Chu family.
The coachman was the most popular gossip. Once he knew, the servants in each residence would also know. With a master who loved to gossip, there would naturally be people who would brag about it.
In short, one spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred. Not long after, the masters of the various families knew about it.
Someone who had a good relationship with Madam Zhou asked Madam Zhou about it.
She had never thought that the news would spread so widely as if it had grown legs. Naturally, there was nothing to deny. She added oil to the fire and demonized Wang Qiang.
How did Wang Qiang go to the Xie family, and who secretly played tricks to remove Chu Dalang’s official position?
Xie Xian.
Other than the Xie Clan’s Clan Leader, who else could have such a huge amount of money?
As for Xie Xian being willing to stand up for Wang Qiang, that was only natural.
Wang Qiang had such a seductive personality.
As the news spread, it really solidified the scandal of Xie Xian and Wang Qiang. No one really pursued the fact that the two of them were cousins. It was just gossip. Who would personally verify it?
Furthermore, it was just as Concubine Zhou had said. There was no lack of such chaos in the aristocratic families.
This was the origin of the rumors.
In the end, Madam Zhou believed it herself. Looking at Wang Qiang in the Xie family, she was doing well with Xiao Baoxin. Other than the future empress, she was also the princess of the current dynasty. She said that Wang Qiang was a little white lotus that was persecuted by him to this point…
Is there such a thing as persecuting?
The more she persecuted, the more prosperous she became. If it were her, she would be willing too.
“Zhou Furen is indeed good at speaking, a good hand at twisting black and white!”Xiao Baoxin laughed in extreme anger, his gaze as sharp as a knife.”You slandered my family in my house, and now you want to say that I’m bullying you? What, was this the Zhou family’s upbringing? The elder brother hired a murderer, the younger sister poisoned people, and Madam Zhou was the leader of them. She could kill with her mouth!”
“Fifteenth Aunt volunteered to be a virgin for the fourth son of the Chu family last year. I’m sure everyone still remembers. It was such a loyal and affectionate young lady. At that time, your Chu family was extremely grateful. However, when the Wang family fell, Aunt Fifteen moved into the Chu family as a widow. As the eldest sister-in-law, not only did you not get along with Chu Silang’s widow, but you also bullied Chu Silang’s adopted son. Aunt Fifteen was also forced to move out of the Chu family because she could not bear it anymore.”
“You’re slandering me!” Madam Zhou clenched her fists tightly and stood out like a crane among chickens. She glared at Xiao Bao Xin with a venomous gaze. Xiao Baoxin, don’t think that just because you married into the Xie family, others have forgotten your background. A year ago, Wang Qiang was a widow, and a year ago, weren’t you infamous? If you hadn’t hooked up with Xie Xian, ’ your marriage wouldn’t have been settled.”
“Once you marry into the Xie family, do you really think that you can wash away your past?”
“You’re so arrogant and despotic. Just because you’re pregnant, you’re really using your power to bully others!”
Xiao Baoxin sneered,”Men, throw Madam Zhou out of the Xie family!””
“Didn’t you say that I’m arrogant and despotic? I’ll show you what arrogance is! In the future, the Xie family will not welcome you to visit them again!”As soon as she finished speaking, Cai Wei and You Mei walked out from the crowd. The others were all servants of the Xie family. They didn’t give face to their own Furen, but they supported them.
One of them stepped forward and helped Madam Zhou up. Madam Zhou was about to curse when Youmei Xian reached out and covered her with a hand.
The entire west room was dead silent, followed by the sound of swallowing. When Xiao Miaorong returned to her room, she saw this scene. Zhou Furen had been dragged out by her maid. Her hair was messed up by her and she couldn’t bear to lose face. She kept crying and her eyes were bloodshot.
Could she say it…This time, Sister had gone too far…
