My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 139: Getting Angry (Benefit Extra)

Xing Zhao was furious when he heard this. He looked back at the people who didn't care about their lives. He wanted to argue for his cousin, but was pulled in by Madam Xing.

"Mother, what are you doing? Didn't you hear them talking nonsense outside?"

"We didn't come here to argue with them. Let's go and see the real situation."

So they went straight to the East Garden.

Who knew that halfway through the journey, they met the housekeeper He who came in a hurry. He looked very serious now.

When he saw Madam Xing and Xing Zhao appear, he was still a little surprised, but he hurried forward to pay his respects.

"Why are you here, Madam and young master?"

"We heard about the disappearance of the Duke, and came to ask what happened."

"Then let's go to Yunjin Courtyard. Everyone is there now."

"Sixth Brother's wife went there too?"

"She went there. Madam Wei kept calling people to invite her. There was no choice but to take the sedan chair."

Madam Xing was furious when she heard this.

To the outside world, Du Jingyi was pretending to be sick, but Madam Xing knew that she was not even three months old and was at an unstable age.

If anything happened, she would skin Madam Wei, and she immediately said with a sullen face.

"Lead the way, I want to see what tricks Madam Wei plays!"

"Yes."

The three of them hurried to Yunjin Courtyard.

At this moment, Yunjin Courtyard was bustling.

They cried and wiped tears, as if Duke Shang Yukuan was already dead.

The first to bear the brunt were Madam Wei and the women of the third room, while Shang Ji and Du Jingyi looked calm.

Looking at the way these people acted in front of them, they were really one better than the other.

Shang Silang's eyes were also red, staring at Shang Ji back and forth.

"Sixth brother is too cruel, father is injured like this, and you and your wife are not worried."

Shang Ji said calmly without even raising his eyelids.

"Didn't the doctor check it out? He said it was just a superficial wound and would heal in a few days. But why are you crying and screaming here? Are you trying to curse your father?"

Du Jingyi almost couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

She knew her husband didn't like these relatives, but she didn't expect him to be so ruthless.

Shang Silang didn't have much ability to begin with, and he almost couldn't catch his breath after being choked by him.

"You you you..."

He kept saying you for a long time, but didn't say the next sentence.

The third old master slammed the table twice and spoke to Shang Ji.

"How can Liulang talk like that? He is your fourth brother after all. Besides, there are relatives in the room. Why is it wrong for everyone to worry about Yukuan? Why are the words coming out of your mouth so unpleasant?"

"Unpleasant? What I said was the truth, or is it that Third Uncle Grandfather loves Father so much, why don't he let someone shoot you twice so that you and Father can share the joys and sorrows?"

The Third Old Master originally wanted to buy a good deal for Madam Wei and Shang Silang.

Anyway, he and Shang Ji have been at odds for a long time, so it is useless to try to please him now. It is better to defect to Yunjin Courtyard, maybe he can still keep his wealth and glory.

Who knew that Shang Ji would say such a dog-blooded thing, but he couldn't say anything back.

He is really powerful and powerful, and he is angry and dissatisfied, but he can't do anything about it.

Shang Ji's sharp words are actually for Du Jingyi.

He didn't want these disasters to affect his wife's mood. If she hadn't insisted on coming, Shang Ji didn't want her to get involved in this mess.

So naturally he had to protect her.

Du Jingyi was happy to see the people from the Third House and Yunjin Courtyard get humiliated. Not to mention fighting, he didn't even need to say anything. He just watched from the side.

Seeing that the people who defended her were defeated, Madam Wei didn't hide behind her anymore. She wiped her tears and spoke.

"Sixth Brother, don't be angry. They are anxious and say things without thinking. The most important thing right now is that the master can wake up, otherwise... otherwise this family will really fall apart."

She cried sincerely after she finished speaking.

The women from the Third House who were accompanying her also started to act one by one, and no one was afraid to give in.

While they were making a fuss, they heard a voice coming in from outside.

"Oh, a whole room of people are crying here? The Duke was injured, not dead, why are you crying so hard?"

The one who spoke was naturally Madam Xing. She walked in with her son Xing Zhao and housekeeper He, and said directly in a bad tone.

When she saw her, Madam Wei was still a little afraid.

After all, she had suffered a lot under her hands many years ago, and she was even lucky that it was not her who married into the family.

Otherwise, I am afraid that she would not have survived until today and would have been cleaned up.

So, when Madam Xing spoke, she did not dare to argue more.

But the old lady of the third room was a person with no vision, and she cursed at him as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Who are you? Dare to shout in the Duke's Mansion?"

When she said this, Xing Zhao's face turned ugly.

He was a person who didn't care about meat and vegetables. How could he not talk back when someone scolded his mother like this!

He said with a sneer.

"She is the daughter of the Gu family, the current mistress of my Xing family, the best friend of the Queen, and the biological mother of my Xing Zhao. Let alone shouting in the Duke's Mansion, even if she overturns the roof of Yunjin Courtyard, what's the problem?"

"You! You are a yellow-haired boy, and you dare to be rude to me."

"Bah, who are you? Why should I be polite to you? You are just a blood-sucking worm in the Duke's Mansion. If I were you, I would have stayed in the house and not gone out to avoid being embarrassed!"

"You, you, you! Oh my God! Are you going to force me to death? Niece-in-law, don't you care?"

The third old lady looked at Mrs. Wei. She didn't know much about the Xing family, but she knew that they were relatives of Mrs. Gu and had great power in Jinling City.

But this is Sui'an City, and it is the Duke's Mansion. They can't be presumptuous!

Who knew that before Mrs. Wei could speak, Shang Ji added coldly.

"If the third aunt doesn't want to live, go downstairs to be filial to the elders as soon as possible, and don't offend your father. The Duke's Mansion can't handle two funerals."

"You!"

The third old lady really lost her breath this time and pouted.

The Third Old Master and the people from the Third House were so scared that they hurried forward to help. The already messy Yunjin Courtyard was even more chaotic at this moment.

Some cursed and some glared.

One by one, the arrogance that had been suppressed in recent days was released again.

Unfortunately, this time, Shang Ji did not give them a chance to show their displeasure.

He shouted to the outside.

"Drag them out. If anyone dares to say another word, he will be punished by military law. If he is beaten to death, he will be sent to Yingtian Prefecture and accused of blocking rescue, which caused the Duke to be seriously injured and unconscious, and his life or death is unknown!"

"Yes!"
