Her response made the admiral's wife's anger rise from five points to eight points.

"You have to contradict me, don't you?"

"My daughter doesn't dare."

Dare not? She clearly dares!

The admiral's wife raised her hand towards the girl's soft face. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anger, but she didn't hit her in the end. It wasn't that she was distressed, but that she was going to the Wei family tomorrow, and Yan Mi couldn't show off her hurt face.

"Why do you let me down again and again? Do you deserve to know my mother's good intentions for you? Is it possible that I can still harm you?"

She scolded her coldly: "Look at how drunk you are, how can you still be a serious girl! I don't let you associate with that kind of girl. Is it wrong?"

Yan Mi finally spoke: "What kind of girl?"

She looked over with calm eyes: "All the noble ladies in Shengjing City are covered with a layer of skin. There are many hypocrites who are overtly good and secretly vicious. Mrs. Shen has a free and easy temperament, transparent and straightforward. I'm afraid she can't be found in the world. Come out with the second one."

"You all say she is not good, but when my daughter gets along with her, she finally feels that she is not an object, but a person."

The admiral's wife was so angry that she said three good words.

She said condescendingly.

"Okay! I can't explain it to you, Li'er! If you like to kneel, then kneel in the ancestral hall to the ancestors of the Yan family!"

"Tell the kitchen not to prepare meals for my wife today! She is so hungry and needs to reflect!"

As soon as she finished speaking, before the slave could respond, she heard a voice coming with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, why are you punishing Sister Mi again? You have come back to find fault with her again and again. That's why you are so cruel."

"What's wrong with having some wine? Who said girls can't be touched?"

When the admiral's wife heard this voice, she suppressed her temper and said, "It's better for the second brother and sister not to get involved in the eldest brother's affairs."

The second wife came supporting Mrs. Yan who was wearing a wisp on her head. When she got closer, she ignored the admiral's wife and went up to pull Yan Mi up in distress.

Whether I feel really sorry or not, that’s a different matter for now. But whatever I say sounds more pleasing to my ears than anyone else.

"Let my aunt see how thin you are? I heard that you have a bad appetite these days, but your mother is angry with you again? This body belongs to you, and you have to take care of yourself. If you are angry, just Let your grandma make the decision, she loves you the most. You can't be separated from her."

"No, as soon as I heard that your mother-in-law was escorting you back, I came in a hurry."

Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Mi silently and let the second grandmother talk non-stop.

The second grandma said again: "Today I asked the small kitchen to prepare appetizers for you. Why don't you go to your aunt's house for dinner later?"

The admiral's wife asked him to kneel down, but she helped him up. He refused to let her eat, and instead went to invite him into the room.

The Admiral's face was livid with anger. She and the Second Mistress were at odds with each other, but the latter dared to say this because Mrs. Yan gave her permission.

Seeing that Yan Mi's face was flushed and her legs were so weak that she could not stand firmly, Mrs. Yan finally said: "From my second brother's house, take Sister Mi down first to sober up."

As soon as they left, she dropped the tea cup on the coffee table with a heavy face.

There was a "clang" sound and tea splashed everywhere.

"Think I'm dead?"

This sentence scared all the servants in the room to their knees.

"Mother-in-law, calm down, how dare your daughter-in-law do it."

Mrs. Yan: "Kneel down too."

If there were only two people in the house, she would just kneel down. However, there were many slaves in the house, but she was the mistress of the house. If she knelt down, how could she maintain her authority?

"Mother-in-law...mother-in-law."

Mrs. Yan Tai looked at her like this: "You know it's embarrassing? You punish Sister Mi in public, how come you don't care about her face?"

She hit the ground with her crutch: "I can count the number of girls she can be friends with on one hand, including those from the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Industry and the Yangling Marquis Mansion. She was raised in my house, don't you feel bad I know. I don’t ask you to care about her too much. But the Yan family has forced her into a desperate situation, are you going to drive her crazy?"

She also nodded her head to this marriage, so what can she do? The Wei family has control over the Yan family. If it gets too big, I'm afraid it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor! It will bring disaster to the whole family!

Of course, the Duke of Wei also provided many benefits.

I can only abandon Yan Mi.

This is what she should do as a daughter of the Yan family.

"Madam."

The confidant of the Admiral's wife said: "Our eldest lady is also working hard. That lady of the Shen family has bad character——"

Mrs. Yan lowered her eyes and flicked the Buddhist beads on her wrist. The old woman who was serving her came forward and slapped the slave who spoke.

"How dare you make a mistake in front of the Madam? The master didn't say anything, why did you interrupt? Who gave you the courage?"

"My wife has been under the knee of the Dowager since she was a child, and she asked the nuns in the palace to teach her the rules. Even if Mrs. Shen is really what you said, is it possible that our lady will still be ignorant of people and learn bad things? That is from the Yangling Marquis Mansion. Man, let your despicable slave make irresponsible remarks?"

"Never mind these things, my wife's marriage has been decided. Madam Dowager feels sorry for her and just wants her to live a happy life before getting married. Whatever happens to Madam Shen and Madam Wei, we Madam will be happy."

"Madam, if you can't discipline your slave, I can still help you."

Mrs. Cui continued to move the beads. If you didn't know how powerful she was when she was young, people would always think that she was a kind old lady.

The mother-in-law said that the face of the admiral's wife was ugly.

She forced a smile.

"Mother-in-law, what you said is true, but Mrs. Wei does not tolerate sand in her eyes. When the Wei family hired Sister Mi, they were interested in her stability and ability to take on the responsibility of the mistress. If she knew that she was drinking and getting drunk, what would happen to her? What should we do?”

Mrs. Cui raised her eyelids.

"My best friend had a few drinks and you got drunk?"

"If Mrs. Wei goes back on her word, I, an old woman, can't help but wish for it."

But will the Wei family regret it?

Absolutely not.

For someone like Yan Mi, who wouldn't be better to marry than Wei Xiheng?

That means she doesn't have a choice.

The admiral's wife said: "My daughter-in-law has been taught a lesson and I will no longer hold her captive in the future."

She came forward to apologize, and asked her mother-in-law to make tea again, and delivered it to Mrs. Yan personally.

"She is my daughter, so naturally I can't let her go."

Mrs. Yan didn’t answer.

After all these years, she still looks at her daughter-in-law with hatred. If it hadn't been for her, her son would have married a noble daughter of the Xie family.

She stopped moving the beads and waved to the Admiral's wife.

The admiral's wife leaned over.

Mrs. Yan leaned into her ear and mocked.

"Do you really think I'm an old fool?"

"You are not her biological mother."

At dusk, the sky was covered with a thin layer of gauze. The setting sun was setting, and the glow was all over the place. The sound of horse hooves gradually sounded. Cui Yun turned over and dismounted, and threw the reins to the guard.

He headed towards Suiyuan.

But I never thought that as soon as I approached, I saw a soft chair placed at the entrance of Suiyuan.

The girl sat quietly, holding a book in her hand. When she heard the movement, she raised her eyes slightly.

Cui Yun walked over unexpectedly.

"What's wrong with me?"

Shen Hua closed her book and asked calmly and politely: "Are we fighting? The kind where we both die together."
