Chapter 258 Wu wants to kill the old lady
The old lady's heart skipped a beat. She had not expected Wu to be so alert.
Of course she knew what Yi Jie'er had done to Fu Jie'er. No, or rather, she knew that Yi Jie'er would vent her anger on Fu Jie'er.
After all, Yi Jie'er has always wanted to marry His Royal Highness Prince An, but she has repeatedly made concessions for the sake of His Royal Highness's cause, and ended up being preempted by Fu Jie'er.
Yi Jie'er has been raised in pampered condition and is highly praised by the people in the mansion. How can she swallow this humiliation? She will definitely make up for it in other places.
So when Lin and Yi Jie'er suggested that Fu Jie'er enter Prince An's Mansion as a concubine, she was silent for a moment and then agreed.
Although Yi Jie'er and Fu Jie'er are both her granddaughters, and their palms and backs of their hands are all fleshy, there are differences in the amount of flesh.
In her life, she gave birth to two sons and one daughter. Her daughter entered the palace as a noble concubine and gave birth to Prince An. There is a great possibility that she will make further progress in the future.
The eldest son was her glory. He single-handedly brought the declining marquisate back to the center of power. Even her daughter entered the then Eastern Palace thanks to the eldest son's life-saving grace to the current emperor.
Even though she was demoted because of the disaster relief money issue, it was all to protect His Royal Highness Prince An. After initially finding it difficult to accept, she gradually figured it out.
That incident was already the best outcome. As long as His Royal Highness Prince An was not affected, the Yongning Earl's Mansion still had a chance to make a comeback.
As for the youngest son, he was not as good as the eldest son and daughter. His knowledge when he was studying was average, and his political achievements after becoming an official were also mediocre. He had not even given birth to a legitimate son, but had given birth to illegitimate sons and daughters one after another.
The youngest son is not as good as the eldest son, and in her heart, her granddaughter Zhou Lingfu is naturally not as good as Zhou Lingyi, the daughter of the first wife.
Even if she had the blood of the Wu family, it would be useless. After all, the Wu family had already fallen into decline. If a girl were to be chosen from the Yongning Earl's Mansion as Princess An, the person she would have to choose would be Sister Yi.
As Princess An, she would have the possibility of becoming the Queen in the future, so in her mind Zhou Lingyi would naturally be much more important than Zhou Lingfu.
Not to mention letting Sister Fu enter Prince An's Mansion as a concubine, even if the eldest wife insisted that Sister Fu become a nun, she would probably give in after thinking about it for a night.
She believed that she had not done anything too extreme. She sent Fu Jie'er to a nunnery and gave her a place to live, but only made her suffer some troubles from Yi Jie'er.
She also thought that although Sister Yi held a grudge against Sister Fu, she would eventually consider the sisterly feelings and would not go too far.
So Wu had begged me several times before, wanting me to find a way to let her meet Sister Fu, but I didn't take it seriously and sent her away.
Until this time, Yi Jie'er revealed some clues and was discovered by Wu, and Yi Jie'er told her the truth.
Only then did she realize that Sister Yi was so cruel and ruthless that she even spared no sisters from the same clan.
But besides being frightened, I couldn't help but feel a little admiration.
Someone as ruthless as Yi Jie'er can only survive by entering the harem after Prince An ascends the throne.
As for Sister Fu... the old lady narrowed her eyes slightly.
Now that things have come to this, Sister Fu must be holding a grudge against the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. In that case, why not just go with the flow and do as Sister Yi wishes.
The old lady looked at Wu who was kneeling in front of her.
But for now, we still have to keep her calm. It would be bad if things get out of hand.
Thinking of this, the old lady's tone softened a bit, and she tried to reason with Wu, "All of this is just your imagination and speculation. The Imperial Concubine has to deal with countless attacks in the palace."
"If we have to go to the Imperial Concubine for even such a trivial matter, how will the Imperial Concubine view our Earl's Mansion?"
The old lady hadn't come to her senses yet and still thought that Wu was as easy to fool as before.
Little did she know that Wu had been staring at her the entire time, and had clearly seen the subtle changes in her expression.
After she understood what was going on, she immediately collapsed. "Don't lie to me anymore. You and the eldest wife are in cahoots. You all teamed up to bully us!"
The old lady wanted to deny it, but Mrs. Wu could no longer listen. She held the old lady's hand tightly with a crazy look on her face, which scared the old lady and the nanny who was serving her.
"Old Madam, I beg you. Sister Fu is also your granddaughter. Please let her go, okay? Go tell Sister Yi that Sister Fu will not enter Prince An's mansion and will not compete with her for His Highness Prince An. I just want her to come back safely."
"Let my sister Fu come back safely, okay?"
Mrs. Wu looked at the old lady with hope, hoping that she would nod. However, the old lady was still frightened and could not answer Mrs. Wu.
When Mrs. Wu saw that the old lady remained silent, she thought that she disagreed.
So Wu began to kowtow to the old lady, saying as she kowtowed, "Old lady, aunt, this is my only child. Please have mercy on me and don't let the eldest wife harm Sister Fu, okay?"
"I can take Sister Fu away. I won't let her compete with Sister Yi for her. I swear, if Sister Fu dares to compete with Sister Yi again in the future, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
Mrs. Wu hit the ground so hard that blood soon oozed out of her forehead.
The old lady finally realized what was happening. Seeing Wu's expression, she couldn't help but sigh and said quietly, "It's too late."
Yi Jie'er told her that Fu Jie'er now hated Prince An and the Yongning Earl's Mansion so much that she even tried to escape to General Lin's Mansion several times to disrupt the marriage between Prince An's Mansion and General Lin's Mansion.
Even if it fails, he has to tell Lin Xiyan everything. In short, he doesn't want the Yongning Marquis's Mansion and Yi Jie'er to have an easy life in the future.
Sister Fu now looks like she wants to kill Prince An's Mansion and Earl Yongning's Mansion. Who would dare to let her out?
If she were really allowed to come out, I'm afraid that the Yongning Marquis' Mansion would not only be hated by General Lin's Mansion, but would also become a laughing stock.
I can only do as Yi Jie'er said, keep her alive, and send her off when His Highness marries Lin Xiyan.
In this way, she could be said to have died a worthy death, repaying the uncle's kindness in raising her, and it was not in vain that the uncle had raised her for more than ten years.
Alas, what a pity. It’s also the fault of the second wife’s mother and daughter for not being clear-headed. One wrong step led to another. Otherwise, Sister Fu wouldn’t have ended up like this.
The two almost inaudible words pierced Wu's fragile and sensitive nerves like a silver needle.
Wu's kowtow froze, and her whole body seemed to be petrified, unable to believe what she heard.
To Wu, these two words were like telling her that Zhou Lingfu was dead.
Dead -
Sister Fu is dead...
Her only daughter is dead!
Mrs. Wu's eyes gradually turned red and her eyes were bloodshot. She stood up suddenly and burst into laughter.
As she laughed, she started crying again, "Sister Fu! My daughter! It was mother who harmed you!"
The sound of crying and laughing, like a ghost crying, gave the old lady goose bumps. The old lady even suspected that Mrs. Wu was crazy.
In order to prevent the madman from doing anything crazy and hurting himself, the old lady took the hand of the nanny beside her and wanted to run away.
But Wu grabbed her and threw her to the ground, almost breaking the old lady's bones.
The old lady cried out "Ouch, ouch", but couldn't get up.
Wu felt a ball of rage burning in her heart, ready to consume her completely. She said viciously, "You killed my sister Fu, so you must go down and pay for her life!"
As he said that, he pulled out the golden hairpin on his head and stabbed it towards the old lady's chest!
