Chapter 245 Are you crazy now?
When Wei Fenghua returned to the Marquis' Mansion this time, there was no one else besides Wei Xia.
There was also a stern-looking nanny and a maid with a cold temperament.
The nanny in front was assigned to her by the Queen Mother.
The maid behind was given by Princess Yi.
Before she could even get back to the backyard, the housekeeper stopped her.
He said, "Madam, the old marquis asks you to go to the main hall."
Wei Fenghua glanced at him and said, "This princess needs to go back to the courtyard to wash up first. Let the old marquis wait for a while."
If the old man asked her to go, she would go?
In the past, because the other party was her father-in-law, and also for Jiang Ji'an's sake, she could no longer be happy but endured it.
Now, just bear with it.
The butler obviously didn't expect the lady to say this. He was stunned and said, "It's not good to let the old marquis wait."
Wei Fenghua snorted coldly, "Asking him to wait for me is giving him face, what's wrong with that?"
She asked the old maid behind her, "Mammy, did the princess break the rules by asking him to wait?"
The old nanny stepped forward and bowed, "You are a first-rank princess appointed by the late emperor, and the current emperor has issued an edict to grant you the treatment of a princess."
"According to his rank and status, it is in accordance with the rules to let the old marquis wait."
She was sent by the Queen Mother to be by the princess' side to support her and vent her anger.
That old marquis really takes himself too seriously.
Wei Fenghua nodded in satisfaction and raised an eyebrow at the housekeeper, "Did you hear that?"
"This is the third-rank housekeeper of the Empress Dowager's side. She is also an old lady who once served the Grand Empress Dowager."
"She is the most prudent. Can we let the old marquis wait now?"
This butler has always been the old marquis's loyal dog.
Usually I prefer the second room.
Before she left, she pulled the unruly dog down and replaced him with someone else.
The butler was sweating and said, "Yes, I will report to the old marquis right away."
Previously, the Madam took the initiative to step on the Marquis's Mansion, which led to so many censors reporting the Marquis.
Not only did she ruin the reputation of the Marquis and the Second Madam, but she even beat the Second Madam in public at the flower-viewing banquet yesterday, and her sister also belittled and humiliated her.
This made the old marquis very angry and he wanted to punish his daughter-in-law.
According to past experience, even if the lady was unhappy, she would give face to the old marquis, her father-in-law.
But now, not only did she speak with her status as a princess, she also brought with her a high-ranking maid who served the empress dowager.
It seems that he came prepared.
As a daughter-in-law, it's simply outrageous.
But he didn't dare to contradict, so he could only go back and report and let the old marquis make the decision.
Wei Fenghua lazily spat out a word, "Get lost!"
The butler lowered his head, with some anger in his eyes.
After so many years in the Marquis' Mansion, this was the first time someone asked him to get out.
But no matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to say anything, "Yes!"
Then he went to the main hall and told the old marquis about Wei Fenghua's arrogance in an exaggerated way.
His most promising son serves the eldest master.
Over the years he had also noticed that the old marquis intended for the eldest young master to inherit the mansion in the future.
Although the Marquis has feelings for his wife, he now prefers the second wife.
Therefore, in the future, this marquisate will belong to the second branch.
He had been in the second room for a long time and often informed others of the situation.
And use the identity of the butler to help the second house get things done conveniently.
As expected, hard work pays off, and his son has now become the eldest young master's confidant.
No matter how arrogant the lady is now, she will not have a good future. He should be patient and not argue with her.
When she gets into trouble in the future, he will step on her a few times to vent his anger today.
The old marquis never expected his daughter-in-law to be so arrogant.
It was simply inappropriate to let him, the father-in-law, wait for her, the daughter-in-law.
I heard from my son before that my daughter-in-law was still upset about what happened before and was very angry. She even went to the palace to complain.
But he didn't take it seriously.
As long as the other party is his daughter-in-law, she can't cause any trouble.
But he is her father-in-law and can use filial piety to pressure her.
Who would have thought that this daughter-in-law would be so rebellious and actually use her rank to suppress him.
In terms of rank, he, a second-rank marquis, is indeed not as good as a first-rank princess.
He was determined to teach his daughter-in-law a lesson today, so he sat in the main hall with a sullen face and waited.
More than half an hour later, when the old marquis had finished his tea, Wei Fenghua finally came slowly.
Seeing the old marquis sitting at the head with a sullen face, she didn't even bother to greet him and just found a seat to sit down.
He looked up at him and asked, "Old Marquis, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The old marquis was angered by Wei Fenghua's contemptuous and arrogant attitude, "How do you behave as a daughter-in-law?"
"It's really outrageous that you don't call me dad or show respect when you see me, your father-in-law."
Wei Fenghua sneered as if he had heard a joke, "I used to bow to you and call you father-in-law. That was to give you face."
"I don't want to give you face now, so you can do whatever you want."
He shrugged nonchalantly, "If you're unhappy, just go out and yell, saying I'm unfilial."
When she was in Changping Village, she heard a lot from the Lu family about Xiao Ye's deeds.
In addition, after hanging out with Xiaoye for half a month, I learned a lot of words and skills to talk back at people.
The old marquis stared with his eyes wide in disbelief, "You, you are so outrageous!"
Although the daughter-in-law did not respect him very much in the past, she still showed him the proper manners.
She would listen to him.
Is this crazy now?
Wei Fenghua rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just fart. I don't have time to listen to your nonsense here."
When the old marquis heard these rude words, he was so angry that he fell backwards.
I couldn't help but reach out and slap the table heavily, "You are really rebellious."
Then he ordered the housekeeper with a sullen face, "Send someone to bring my wife down to be punished by the family rules!"
She dared to talk back to him and bullied Qiulan. Today, he must teach this increasingly unruly daughter-in-law a lesson.
The housekeeper was delighted and said, "Yes!"
Then he asked the servant to go outside and call in a few strong old women, intending to take Wei Fenghua to enforce the family rules.
The Jiang family's family rules are to hit the palms with a ruler and lock the children in the ancestral hall to kneel and reflect.
When you admit your mistake, you should come out.
Wei Fenghua also reached out and patted the table, looking at the old marquis coldly, "You old bastard, if you dare to touch me today, just try it."
"If you dare to touch me, I will immediately go to the palace to find my aunt and cousin to take charge."
"And spread the news that you coveted your niece's wife and even had an affair with her to the whole capital."
Xiao Ye Zi said that when dealing with such a shameless old man, one must be even more shameless than the other party and confuse right and wrong.
She has to be better at throwing dirty water than the other party, which is the key to winning and making the other party angry to death.
As expected, when the old marquis heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
He had been the one who had the final say in the Marquis' Mansion over the years, and had never been treated so arrogantly by anyone, and she even threw such dirty water on him.
If this really gets out, how can he and his niece-in-law live their lives?
He raised his hand and pointed at Wei Fenghua, shaking, "Nonsense, you are talking nonsense."
Wei Fenghua sneered, "You, an old man, know best whether I am talking nonsense or not."
"If you and your niece-in-law don't have a head and tail, will it exceed your uncle's care and favoritism?"
"Do you think everyone is like Jiang Ji'an, blind and unable to see?"
She glanced coldly at the old woman who came in and said, "I'll sit here and see who dares to use family rules against me."
The old marquis was full of anger, "You are disrespectful to my father-in-law, and you dare to speak back and slander him. This is unfilial. Today, I will enforce the family law."
Then he ordered the women, "Go and arrest her for me."
