Chapter 370: Was the cloth a gift from the King of Qi?
There were few people guarding the Tinglan Courtyard, so Xiaokang went straight in without anyone notifying her and rushed directly into Liu's house.
As soon as she entered, she pointed at Liu and cursed her, accusing her of stealing things from the second wife.
Liu's blood boiled when she heard this, but her leg hadn't healed yet, so she couldn't rush over to hit Xiao Kang. She could only yell, "What? I stole fabric from your second room? Xiao Kang, you bitch, get the hell away from me!"
"You black-hearted thief woman, are you really so jealous of our second room? You stole our things and you think you are right? I'm telling you, if you don't return the fabrics in my room today, don't blame me for tearing your mouth apart."
Xiaokang frowned and looked fierce.
The Marquis's Mansion was in financial difficulty now. She had spent more than an hour apologizing to Jiang in the Third House, only to receive some cloth in return. Before she could even bear to use it to make clothes, it had disappeared. How could she bear to accept that?
"Something was lost in your room. What does it have to do with me? Stop throwing dirty water on me. You call me a thief and a bitch. Am I your mother? Why am I pampering you?"
Liu looked at Xiaokang with a frosty face, thinking that Xiaokang was still looking for trouble with her because of Su Yueqi's death. Would she ever stop?
"Oh! Is it someone trying to throw dirty water? Let me search and I'll know." Xiaokang looked around and ran to the cabinet on the side.
She wanted to see where that bitch Liu hid all the things!
"Asshole! You can't just search my place casually?" Liu shouted angrily, but she couldn't stand up at the moment, so she could only shout to Madam Zhou: "Hurry up and get that bitch out of here, she's crazy."
"You're crazy! If you didn't steal anything, why wouldn't you let me search?"
After Xiaokang had rummaged through the cabinet, she threw all the things in it on the ground and stomped on them hard. Then she went to look for something somewhere else. Nanny Ji, who came with her, also followed her and started looking everywhere.
Madam Zhou hurriedly tried to stop them, and shouted, "Someone come! Someone come quickly! The Second Madam is crazy!"
"Nonsense! You are crazy! You old hag have a very foul mouth." Nanny Ji pushed Nanny Zhou over and spat a mouthful of phlegm directly on Nanny Zhou's face.
Xiaokang and Ji Ma Ma were showing off their power, rummaging through boxes and cabinets. Recalling the last time Liu came to the second room to rummage through things, the two showed no mercy. Everything was pushed to the ground, and what could be torn was torn, what could be smashed was smashed, and if it was really impossible, they would spit on it.
Xiaokang and Nanny Ji were so happy that they were overwhelmed with joy and completely disregarded etiquette. Wherever they went, they were like bandits entering a village.
When Su Qingwan came in, she saw the room was in a mess.
"Oh, two aunts, what are you doing?" Su Qingwan shouted symbolically.
"Qingwan, Liu stole my fabric and I'm looking for it!" Xiaokang had already searched the house but couldn't find her fabric. She was so angry that she was gasping for breath.
"Shameless Xiaokang, who stole your things? I think you are just angry about your son's death, so you came here to make trouble." Liu had already stood up with a cane.
"Aunts, please sit down and talk slowly. After all, quarreling won't solve the problem." Su Qingwan advised.
"I have nothing to say to her. You'd better get out of Tinglan Courtyard right now." Liu snorted coldly.
"If you want me to leave, then compensate me with my fabrics. Don't say you didn't take my fabrics. I know you wanted to make new clothes for Su Yunrou, that lowly concubine. Now all the good fabrics from the Marquis' Mansion and our two rooms have been compensated to the Prince's Mansion. How can you have any good fabrics to make new clothes for that vixen?"
Xiao Kang was determined that she would not leave until she got compensation today. In addition to the cloth, she also received silver.
"That was Yun Rou's own material, given to her by His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi." Liu's face twitched with anger, but she still said it proudly.
So what if her daughter never leaves the house? Didn’t His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi still deliver the things to her door?
Su Lihan, who was standing aside, felt her eyes well up when she heard these words!
Why?
Why should the King of Qi be so good to Su Yunrou? She is about to become the King of Rui's concubine, but he is still obsessed with her.
Su Lihan was filled with jealousy and felt like she was going crazy with jealousy.
Xiaokang was also very jealous. She had already regarded the King of Qi as her son-in-law. However, since the King of Qi gave things to Su Yunrou, it must be that Su Yunrou had seduced the King of Qi.
"Bah! You are still so proud of yourself. That whore Su Yunrou is fickle and restless. She has learned all the skills to be a foxy woman. Such a bitch should be thrown into a pig cage." Xiaokang scolded unceremoniously.
"Shut up! If you talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart! Besides, the King of Qi doesn't like the fifth girl, why don't you look for the reason yourself? To put it bluntly, you are ugly but have beautiful dreams. Now you are disfigured. It will be difficult for you to marry a country boy and become his wife in the future." Liu was so angry that her body was shaking. But then she thought that she couldn't lose the upper hand, otherwise Xiaokang would have to pee and shit on him in the future!
Xiao Kang snorted and glanced at Liu's broken leg, "You are worthy?"
"My Li Han used to be as pretty as a fairy, a lotus emerging from the water, and even the gods in heaven would marry her. But now, Su Yunrou, that vicious bitch, has had her face smashed. What a cruel and dirty woman, a slut who has been ridden by thousands of men."
The two were about to quarrel even more fiercely. Su Qingwan looked outside and saw Su Yunrou coming over with Old Kang.
"What are you guys making a fuss about? Can't you just calm down for a few days?" Old Kang's injury hadn't healed yet, but he had to come over, so his face looked quite ugly.
"Madam, that thief Liu stole the fabric from our second room. I was thinking of using the fabric to make you a new dress, but now the fabric is gone, so naturally the dress can't be made."
Xiaokang spoke rapidly.
"Second aunt, I think you misunderstood. My mother was born in an earl's mansion, not a small family. She would never do anything sneaky."
After Su Yunrou heard what Xiaokang said, she immediately started talking.
"The Earl's Mansion? You're just a concubine's daughter, how could you have seen any good things? Weren't you confined to your own yard by the emperor? Why did you run out? You are disobeying the emperor's order." Su Lihan said angrily.
When she saw Su Yunrou's delicate face, she wanted to rush up and cut her face all over with a knife.
"Fifth sister, can't you see? I am serving grandma. There are not so many servants in the mansion now, and grandma is injured. If there are more people to serve her, she will feel more comfortable. And I am still staying in the mansion and have not left the house. If fifth sister thinks that what I did is not right, then you can go and tell the emperor and ask him to punish me."
Su Yunrou spoke slowly and calmly. She believed that Su Lihan would never sue her. Even if she wanted to go, other people in the Marquis' Mansion would not agree.
But Su Yunrou had no way to refute the matter of being a concubine's daughter, and Liu had no way to do anything either, because birth was not something she could decide.
Su Lihan didn't expect Su Yunrou to say that, which made her speechless.
"Fifth sister, I think it's good for the second sister to be here. I just heard what the second aunt said, that the first aunt stole the cloth from the second room to make clothes for the second sister, and the first aunt said that the cloth was given to the second sister by the King of Qi. So why not take out the cloth and let you take a look, then you will know whether it is the same cloth or not?"
Su Qingwan smiled and came up with an idea.
When Xiao Kang and Su Li Han heard this, they immediately thought it was a good idea. And no matter what else, as long as the cloth they took out looked good, they could just say it was theirs.
I don’t think Su Qingwan will expose them.
Su Yunrou frowned when she heard this. She also thought of what Xiaokang's mother and daughter had thought. If she took it out and they insisted that it was theirs, she would have no way to defend herself.
"No! You mother and daughter are extremely shameless and will definitely frame us." Liu objected immediately.
"Aunt, the fabric for the second room was sent by us. Why don't I ask the needlework ladies in the palace to come and identify it? They will be able to recognize it if they have seen any fabric before."
Su Qingwan knew that the people in the first house had concerns, so she made arrangements in advance.
Old Mrs. Kang had been sitting aside listening, with a very grim look on her face.
Her two daughters-in-law were both thinking about the cloth, but none of them brought the cloth to her so that she could have a look!
