Chapter 1060: I Have to Give an Explanation!
lucky baby! Even at such a young age, you know how to be considerate of your brother. Then we'll prioritize your brother's studies, and when you grow up, he'll buy you gold bracelets."Just at this mo...“Well then, I’ll listen to my sister-in-law and make it clear to you!” Jia Erfu felt a sense of triumph.
She winked at her niece.
Wan'er actually really wanted to say it out loud, but she held back because of her status.
She is not an Xing family daughter now, but the Countess of Earl's House.
Thus, Late Autumn was called out and vividly recounted past events.
This girl is really reliable in crucial moments. Though she's still as quiet and unassuming as ever, her words are concise and piercing.
How Mrs. Feng forcefully visited, how she used her connection to the Jia family to make things difficult, and how she belittled the Li family and the princess - she explained everything clearly.
This time, from Madam Jia to Master Jia the Elder and Master Jia the Younger, all of them changed color, angrily gritting their teeth.
Madam Jia desperately wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in!
This daughter-in-law, while she often tries to take advantage of small things, has a sweet mouth and can coax people. She's alright overall.
To their surprise, the niece-in-law turned out to be so clueless, she actually caused such a mess.
Outsiders don't know what position Kang Le County Princess holds in the Li family, but can the Jia family possibly be unaware
If the county lord was so good a match, the Jia family, the Liu family, and countless others would have been clamoring to marry her long ago.
Isn't it just because you feel inadequate
Even if the Chen family was genuinely interested in a marriage, wouldn't they find a more suitable matchmaker than the Feng family
It's likely they used the fact that Feng and Jia families are in-laws to gauge Li family's reaction. Even if Li family gets angry, Jia family can take the blame...
Lord Jia, enraged, slapped the table and hissed, "These despicable scoundrels! They've really done their homework. They're trying to use our family and the Earl's Mansion as shields!"
Master Jia also said, "That's right. It's good that Wan'er came to explain things clearly. Otherwise, there might be a rift between the Li family and our family in the future, and we wouldn't even know what happened!"
Jia Er-fu scoffed, glancing at her elder sister-in-law who usually always spoke with decorum. With glee, she said, "Your family is truly blessed. The daughters-in-law you raise are all cunning."
"You, little niece-in-law, worked hard for your family and encouraged your other foolish niece-in-law to come forward, putting our family's face on the line and angering the Li family. You even tried to marry the county princess to a wastrel! What a clever scheme!"
"Didn't your sister-in-law forget The county lord's father was a general in the Northern Expeditionary Army, and the county lord's foster father was the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army. And your Jia Dun is still serving in the Northern Expeditionary Army!"
Jia Dun
At that moment, Jia Dafu's wife wilted to the ground. She had truly forgotten this!
Old Madam Jia and Master Jia (the elder) and Master Jia (the younger) were also in a panic!
"This is terrible, absolutely terrible!" Jiao Laofu, the elder matriarch, slammed her fist on the table and pointed accusingly at her eldest daughter-in-law. "Today, no matter what method you use, you must resolve this matter. If you truly anger the Li family and burden my grandson, I'll cast you out!
"
"Aren't you Feng family cunning, aren't you good at playing tricks Just go back and play with them!"
"Madam Jia quickly pleaded for forgiveness, "Mother, please calm down. This matter, your daughter-in-law truly didn't know about it, and she never expected her family to be so bold! Your daughter-in-law will definitely handle this properly!"
Speaking, she looked again at Jia Daoguo, but unfortunately Jia Daoguo didn't say a word.
Luckily, Jia Xu heard the news and rushed over at this time.
He usually sought tranquility, living in the most secluded courtyard at the end of the mansion. Getting there took some effort.
As soon as he stepped in, he just glanced around and got a sense of the situation.
Thus, he was immensely grateful that his father was on duty at the Ministry of War and that his mother had gone to her maternal grandparents' home to attend to his ailing grandmother. He didn't have to get involved in this muddy water.
"Grandmother, what's wrong You must take care of your health, our family depends on you to be here. If there's anything troubling you, let's talk it through properly. We can always find a good solution, right"
Jia Xu stepped forward and helped Jia Lao Tai Tai up. Jia Lao Tai Tai, as if she had grasped a lifeline, grabbed her grandson's hand and cried out, "You have to listen! I'm so angry I could die! Those black-hearted scoundrels from the Feng family have actually gotten involved with our family, and Dun Ge'er is going to be killed!"
Master Jia remembered that this nephew got along very well with Li Jiren, and he felt a little more hopeful. He quickly said a few words.
Jia Xu immediately grasped the key point and said, "At its core, this matter stems from the Chen family's unprincipled actions. The Feng family was manipulated, our family remained oblivious, and ultimately, it led to the Li family's anger and wronged the 郡主 sister."
He stepped forward and bowed to Wan'er, apologizing solemnly, "Sister-in-law, today's events have caused you trouble as well. Our family will definitely give the Earl's Mansion an explanation, please rest assured."
Wan'er looked for a long time, and now she secretly sighed. The good show was about to end.
The Jia family also had a clever person, it seemed that today helping the aunt vent her anger could only come to an end.
She rose and curtsied, replying, "Sir Jia, you needn't be so polite. As for our two families, it's not something that outsiders can easily destroy with some tricks."
Besides, my aunt is also here. It's for the sake of me being able to visit her often in the future that I will try my best to persuade my in-laws and not take it out on them.
"But the Feng family... it's best if they don't appear in front of our family anymore, or else it will really ruin the relationship between our two families."
"Alright, thank you." Jia Xu once again bowed and thanked, then walked to his family and whispered, "I'll accompany my aunt back to the Feng family. This matter can't be easily dismissed. Given the current situation, even a slight misstep could lead to annihilation.
"Before the Feng family acted, they didn't even consider our safety or that of my aunt. This kind of relative, it's best to stay away from them in the future. What do you think, Auntie"
Mrs. Jia's heart was trembling. As a woman, who would be willing to break ties with her natal family
But the malice before her wouldn't allow her to hesitate. She could only nod.
Soon, Jia's carriage drove out of the gate.
Jia Dafu's wife brought her nephew, along with the still-bound niece-in-law and their servants, went to her natal home with a furious air to settle accounts with another niece-in-law!
Juan'er accompanied Madam Jia and chatted with her for a few words, comforting her well. Then she followed her aunt to her courtyard.
Jia Er's wife drank two cups of cold tea in one breath and laughed, clapping her hands.
“My sister-in-law isn't a bad person, but she usually acts so high and mighty. Today, though, I see her face is red! Even if she's smart, she can't stand up to her own family being so foolish, they're all holding her back!”
Wan'er couldn't help but laugh and cry. She poured tea for her aunt and whispered, "Auntie, it's best to let bygones be bygones. It's just a coincidence that this happened today, allowing me to vent your anger for you. But think about Baozhu and your father-in-law, we can't go too far."
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid!" Jia Erfu stopped smiling and asked seriously, "Wan'er, are your father-in-law and the others really angry This matter is indeed too damaging to friendship. Once the outside wind dies down, I will definitely visit and apologize."
"No need, Auntie, don't worry too much," Wan'er smiled. "My father-in-law is very just, this account will definitely be settled with the Chen family and Feng family, he won't blame your family."
Besides, the county princess and Baozhu are as close as sisters. Even out of regard for Baozhu's feelings, the county princess wouldn't mind this matter. see these melons! No wonder I've been feeling like there are more rats in the fields recently – they must be stealing the melons! But that can't do, these are such good things, we can't feed them to...
