The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny - Chapter 340
Chapter 340: Ignorance
Xia Yayun was also panicking. There was no need for her parents to say anything more. She knew what those rumors meant!
The Xia family was not considered a large family, but she had several aunts in her family, and they had good in-laws. Thus, she could have married Meng Jifang, and in the future, Meng Jifang would treat her with respect.
However, if her reputation was ruined, that would be impossible!
She knew that Meng Jifang’s temper could not be rubbed with sand!
Even if she proved that it was just a rumor, Meng Jifang probably would not tolerate her!
Xia Yayun’s face was ashen, “Father, it’s Xie Qiao who bullied me. She used the scheme to win against me!”
“Master, figure out a solution now! Our Ya’er is too wronged. That Xie family’s girl is too evil. This is just a competition, how can she defame Ya’er’s innocence?! She’s going to ruin her life!” Madam Xia said quickly.
Master Xia was also a little angry.
However, as he thought about it carefully, he thought it was not quite right.
Recently, he had also heard that the Xie family’s daughter had indeed offended someone by criticizing the bullies outside the city.
Even if those bullies had really bullied Young Lady Xie, that little girl should have been hiding at home and crying secretly. How could she think of pushing this matter onto this girl?
Was that not a little too fast for her to take action?
Master Xia thought for a moment and called all the maidservants around his daughter over.
He got the beating stick with him, asking them to tell the truth. What had this girl done recently?
With that question, the truth naturally came to light.
Hearing that, Master Xia felt his entire body break out in cold sweat!
“You, how did you develop such a vicious mind?! The Crown Prince had just arrested someone outside, and added fuel to the fire! If this were to spread to the Emperor’s ears, your father, I, would have to give up on my career!
“I asked you to study, did I ask you to make decisions for other girls?! That Dong Xiyun was really wronged. Does she not have a father, mother or a brain? Why does she need you to fend for her?! Fool, you’re really a fool. You’ve read all the books for nothing, haven’t you?! I initially thought that although you were out there making a bet, you were at least doing a good thing. I didn’t expect you to be so ignorant!”
With this question made clear, Master Xia’s anger rose to the peak!
She did not do anything right!
The bet was wrong from the start!
She agreed to Meng Jifang’s request just like that?! She did not even discuss such a big matter with him!
She did not even care about the dignity a girl should have and was in a hurry to marry Meng Jifang?!
How shameless!
Since she made the bet, she should have put in more effort and be picky. She only looked for the youth. How could the people out there not gossip?!
He naturally knew that young men’s hearts were easy to manipulate.
However, this girl did not think it through!
Master Xia was so angry that he could not breathe and gulped down a pot of tea.
At that moment, he really thought that Xie Qiao was shameless. He did not think that the shameless person was actually his own daughter!
“Master, the First Young Lady sent someone to ask…” the steward barged in with an anxious expression.
Master Xia raised his hand, “I got it.”
His sisters were the matriarchs of high society. Now that this matter had spread, how could the women of the Xia family retain their dignity?
Fortunately, they were not new wives who had just gotten married. Each and every one of them had a firm stance in the in-laws’ family. Otherwise, it was possible that they would be forced to leave and return home!
Madam Xia was scared silly at this moment.
“M-Master… Let Ya’er go… Although she made a mistake, she’s innocent… The outsiders were just spreading nonsense…” Madam Xia begged.
