Chapter 857 Testing (4)

The old man was placed in the old lady's room. The old lady Wang's room was the only place in the East Courtyard that was spared from being smashed. Perhaps those evil slaves were afraid of provoking the old lady and causing death, so they did not enter this room to smash it.

After Liao entered the room, she first bowed to the old lady Wang. Wang's mouth was crooked and her eyes were crooked. She couldn't speak clearly, but she kept talking and even wanted to use her lady's airs to control her.

Liao only bowed, and before she could say the word "get up", she stood up on her own and went to take care of the old man behind the green gauze cabinet.

Wang was so angry that she kept crying, staring at the direction of the green gauze cabinet and yelling, and pounding the bed in indignation. Her old face was flushed with frustration, but no one paid attention to her.

The maids were all good at reading the eyes. Everyone knew that this Liao concubine was the old master's current favorite. Who dared to offend her? Besides, the old lady was already like this, there was no hope, so they naturally would not offend Aunt Liao for the old lady.

Old Lady Wang's life was miserable now. On weekdays, the three masters of the old lady rarely came to see her. Even if they came, they would leave after a cup of tea and would not stay for a moment longer. Seeing that their husbands ignored them, the three ladies were happy to let go and completely became the bosses who did not care about them. They were not seen all day long. In the past, the young ladies would accompany the old lady every day to have fun and coax her, but since the old lady fell ill, the shadows of the young ladies could not be seen. The old lady was alone in the yard all day, lying on the couch and babbling.

As time went by, the servants no longer took her seriously, ignored most of her instructions, and treated her however they wanted. Just like just now, everyone clearly heard the old lady scolding Aunt Liao for entering the mistress's room casually, but no one stood up, pretending to not hear clearly, watching Aunt Liao swagger into the green gauze cabinet!

Wang lay on the bed in pain, scolding Aunt Liao for being ungrateful, and scolding Duke Anguo for favoring concubines and killing his wife. Unfortunately, no matter what she scolded, it was just a sound of "eh eh ah ah". If you don't listen carefully, you can't hear it at all. Even if someone heard it, they ignored her.

She sang a one-man show for a while, and was completely ignored by others. Aunt Liao didn't even give her a look, let alone regard her as an opponent. She was desperate, closed her mouth, and cried...

Soon, Du Yongbang and Du Yongzhi came, and the two brothers chose to ignore the emotional old mother on the couch and went directly to the green gauze cabinet where their father was.

Du Ruhai had already woken up. Wang's babbling woke him up. As soon as he woke up, he remembered Du Wanqiu's escape from marriage and Jin Dapeng's harsh words. He couldn't help but feel extremely sad and lamented!

Aunt Liao considerately put the water she boiled to his mouth, and watched him drink it, and then she felt relieved.

"Hey! Thanks to you----"

Du Ruhai patted Liao's arm, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. He had been a romantic and happy person all his life, but in the end, she had to accompany him!

"Father, are you awake?"

Du Yongzhi strode in, followed by Du Yongbang, who added: "Are you feeling better?"

Du Ruhai sighed and said: "I am old and weak, but has Marquis Wuchang gone? Did he say anything?"

Du Yingbang lowered his head, with a bit of guilt, and said: "I came to discuss this matter with you..."

It turned out that Jin Dapeng had just left the Anguo Mansion, and met the Protector of the Nation General Li Kaifeng who came to mediate at the gate of the Anguo Mansion. He was dragged to a nearby restaurant by General Li. General Li tactfully asked Jin Dapeng to stop and not to retaliate against the Du family. However, Jin Dapeng was unwilling to do so. The daughter of the Du family escaped from marriage, making him a laughing stock of all the people in Dajin. The Wuchang Mansion was disgraced, and he must find a way to get back at it!
