Chapter 421 The Vain Little Aunt 21
In order to catch Wang Lan in the act, Zhou Xing'er also dragged Xiang Pozi along to catch her red-handed.
When Zhou Xing'er saw a man lying in Xiang Youshou's room, there was excitement in her eyes.
"Wang Lan, you actually have a man hiding at home!"
Chen Xuyu on the bed had heard the noise a long time ago, but he was unmoved by the farce.
Wang Lan was still holding the food in her hand and was slightly stunned. When she came to her senses, she immediately said to Xiang Pozi, "Mom, I didn't hide the wild man. I saved this person by the river. He was injured and unconscious. I couldn't bear to see him die, so I saved her."
"You are quibbling!"
Zhou Xing'er wanted to make the matter as big as possible, and it would be best if she could prove that Wang Lan was cheating on her.
Without giving Wang Lan a chance to explain, Zhou Xing'er continued to talk to Xiang Pozi, "Mother, if it was really Sister-in-law who wanted to save people, why did she have to hide it so shamefully? Now that Brother is renovating the old house, she must be dishonest."
Even though Zhou Xing'er didn't say anything particularly unpleasant, her meaning was very clear, that is, she was saying that Wang Lan was cheating on her.
Mother-in-law Xiang looked down and stared at Wang Lan and asked, "Big Boss's wife, do you have anything else to say? If you really do something so shameless, we in the Xiang family will not tolerate you."
Wang Lan was completely panicked. She put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands and shook her head anxiously.
"No, mother, I didn't. I really wanted to save someone. Youfu and I already have a son and a daughter over the years. How could I do such a shameless thing?"
Zhou Xing'er crossed her arms and snorted coldly, "I still say that, if you are really innocent, why are you hiding it? I can tell from the looks of it that you are not being honest."
"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."
Even though she was an honest person, facing Zhou Xing'er's slander, Wang Lan couldn't help but yell at her.
Mother Xiang looked at the two sisters-in-law in front of her and couldn't help but frown with a bit of displeasure.
"Okay, stop arguing. I'll ask the boss to come back and discuss how to deal with today's matter."
"Mom, don't you want to believe me?"
Wang Lan was really dumbfounded. She also realized that Xiang Pozi obviously did not believe her and completely believed Zhou Xing'er's lies, which made her look a little anxious.
Zhou Xing'er couldn't hide the anticipation in her eyes.
"Sister-in-law, how can I expect you to believe me? What's the difference between this and catching someone cheating in bed? Sister-in-law, just admit it honestly and stop quibbling."
It can be seen that Zhou Xing'er is determined to nail Wang Lan to the pillar of shame.
If it weren't for Mrs. Xiang sitting next to her, she would have wanted to prove that Wang Lan had an affair and spread the news everywhere.
When the situation was at a stalemate, Ah Zhi stood at the door and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Mother, Second Sister-in-law, what are you doing standing at Third Brother's door?"
Seeing Ah Zhi coming, Zhou Xing'er stepped forward and said, "Don't you know? Sister-in-law is shameless. She actually stole a man behind my brother's back."
Seeing that Zhou Xing'er's words were somewhat unscrupulous, Xiang Pozi slapped her without thinking.
This slap was because he didn't want Zhou Xing'er's words to pollute Azhi's ears.
"Shut up, this matter has not been confirmed yet, what nonsense are you talking about? You are really a troublemaker, making the family restless."
It was obvious that Mrs. Xiang believed what she said just now. Now Zhou Xing'er covered her face in confusion, unable to understand why Mrs. Xiang wanted to hit her.
Azhi looked at Wang Lan in the room and saw her eyes red with anxiety. She couldn't help but frown slightly and looked at Xiang Pozi.
"Mom, are you mistaken? My sister-in-law was kind enough to save people, so why did you say she was a wild man?"
Mother Xiang didn't expect her daughter to know about this, and asked in disbelief, "You know about this too?"
Azhi nodded.
"Of course I know. It was me who asked my sister-in-law to save him. She was reluctant to do so at first, but I thought it was too cruel to watch someone die without rescuing him, so I begged her to put him in my third brother's room. Didn't she tell mother?"
Of course, Wang Lan did not tell Mrs. Xiang that Azhi actually knew about this matter in advance.
She didn't want Azhi to be blamed by the mother-in-law. Hiding a strange man at home was a big deal.
Mother Xiang frowned and looked at Wang Lan and asked, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
"I was the one who picked her up. I didn't want my younger sister to be implicated. She's not married yet..."
Ah Zhi stepped forward and hugged Xiang Pozi's arm and said affectionately, "Mother, look how good my sister-in-law is to me. She thinks of me in everything. It was clearly me who asked her to rescue someone, and it was me who stole your key and placed the person in Third Brother's room, but she didn't betray me. She just took into consideration that I was an unmarried girl."
Zhou Xing'er, who was so proud just now, couldn't laugh anymore.
Azhi turned the situation around with just a few words.
Just now, Xiang Pozi looked at Wang Lan with a very unhappy expression, but now it has eased a lot.
Zhou Xing'er didn't believe it. "Little sister, don't be fooled by others. Maybe someone is trying to trick you and wants you to help cover up something shameful."
"Second sister-in-law!"
Ah Zhi stared at Zhou Xing'er with a serious face, "You are going too far. What do you mean by something shameful? Sister-in-law saved people and was doing a good deed. What's the point of you talking nonsense beside her? Then I also know about Sister-in-law saving people. Doesn't that mean I have something unclean with him too?"
"Okay, this is getting more and more outrageous."
Mother Xiang held Ah Zhi's hand and shook her head, "You know about this matter, so naturally I know about it. Since it's about saving people, then after the people are rescued, it's better to let them go wherever they should go as soon as possible and don't bring trouble to the family. Do you understand?"
Wang Lan knew that the mother-in-law would not pursue the matter, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
She looked at Azhi with gratitude. If Azhi hadn't spoken up for her just now, the matter might have really come to Xiang Youfu's attention.
Seeing that the matter was about to be handled lightly, Zhou Xing'er's face looked very ugly.
Wang Lan glanced at Zhou Xing'er before leaving.
Although Wang Lan is soft-hearted and easily taken advantage of, some things do not mean that she is stupid.
Zhou Xing'er wanted to kill herself just now. If she was really found to have cheated on him, anyone outside would be able to drown her with a spit from them.
There is a patient in Xiang Youshou's room, and now the whole family knows about it.
But when Xiang Qingcao came back, she heard that her face was solemn. She blamed Wang Lan for hiding the incident from her.
"Mom, why didn't you discuss this with me in advance? How could you just rush to my house to rescue someone who was wounded by a knife or an arrow?"
If it is an ordinary injured person, then naturally you will save him out of kindness, and then the other party will thank you afterwards and let it go.
But there was something wrong with the wounds on Chen Xuyu's body. There were many wounds caused by swords and knives. It was possible that they were from the imperial court or bandits. If one of them was rescued, the trouble would be over.
Seeing Xiang Qingcao so nervous, Wang Lan blinked her eyes innocently.
