Chapter 174: It's time to discipline him
Xie Wan Ning was stunned for a moment, looking at Madam Xie in shock and disbelief.
That look, that expression, was one of utter disbelief.
"Mother, you...you..."
Xie Wan Ning didn't know what to say for a moment.
Madam Xie glanced at Xie Wan Ning calmly, but her tone was remarkably firm: "Wan Ning, you haven't remembered a single thing I've taught you over the years. You've truly disappointed me!"
Mrs. Xie finished speaking and waved her hand. The old woman came to Xie Wanning in embarrassment, bowed to her, and said, "Miss, please go away and don't embarrass us."
Xie Wan Ning looked at Madam Xie unwillingly. She was dressed in plain white and looked cold and aloof, but she gritted her teeth and knelt down: "Mother, please help me this last time, please don't be so cruel..."
Madam Xie remained unmoved. She glanced at Xie Wanning, and her voice and tone became even colder: "Wanning, this time, you must reflect on yourself."
"Otherwise...if it gets out, it will affect the reputation of your other sisters. If your grandfather and grandmother find out, they will definitely blame me."
When Xie Wan Ning heard Mrs. Xie say this, how could she believe it?
He just looked at Madam Xie anxiously and unwillingly, took two deep breaths, and couldn't help asking: "Mother, don't you want me anymore?"
Madam Xie didn't even look at Xie Wan Ning. She waved her hand and said to the maid, "Take the young lady away."
"Yes……"
The old woman didn't dare to say anything else. She immediately waved her hand and called two stronger servants to drag Xie Wan Ning away.
Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Wan Ning's departing figure, and there was no trace of pity in her eyes. Instead, there was an extremely cold look.
Don't want her?
Her daughter was so young back then, but Xie Wanning's biological mother had the heart to abandon her.
Even if there is no money for treatment, even if there is no good doctor, you should not just abandon it.
Xie Wan Ning had enjoyed the Xie family for so many years, but what about her daughter...
How could Xie Wan Ning be innocent?
Keeping them in the house is just for other purposes.
After a while, the old woman came back.
When she arrived beside Madam Xie, the old woman bowed respectfully to her.
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Xie glanced at the old woman and asked.
The old woman immediately said, "Madam, the eldest daughter has been locked up in the ancestral hall. But when she went in, she was still crying and asked me to plead for her."
"Well, I see."
Madam Xie nodded: "If her biological mother finds out, she is not allowed to enter."
The old woman looked at Madam Xie in surprise and was speechless for a moment.
This time, the lady was really angry.
"I know, I will have someone keep a close eye on it." The old woman said quickly.
Mrs. Xie rubbed her brows, looking a little upset, and she didn't even have the heart to write the invitation.
The old woman stood aside, hesitant to speak, obviously having something else to say.
Madam Xie glanced at the old woman impatiently and said, "Just say whatever you want to say."
"What's the matter with you being so hesitant?"
The old woman glanced at Madam Xie awkwardly and said, "The master will be back soon. If you ask..."
"Let him ask me directly. If he asks you, just answer accordingly. There's no need to hide anything."
The old woman looked at Madam Xie with even greater surprise.
But for a moment, I didn't dare to say anything.
She immediately bowed respectfully to Madam Xie and said, "Yes, I know what to do."
Mrs. Xie finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly, and said, "Now that you know, let's go down."
The old woman looked at Madam Xie with some worry, and for a moment she didn't dare to say anything else, so she retreated.
Mrs. Xie drank another cup of milk tea and felt a little calmer.
Then he went to the desk and started to rewrite the invitation.
After a while, Xie Songlin came back.
Seeing that the anger on Mrs. Xie's face had subsided a little and she was finishing an invitation, he asked, "Who are you writing to, Madam?"
Mrs. Xie did not hide anything and briefly told Ye Nanyue about what happened today.
"It is said that she is the sister of the old man's new disciple, and we get along very well. I plan to write an invitation myself." Mrs. Xie's smile became even brighter when she mentioned Ye Nanyue.
Xie Songlin nodded: "It's rare for Madam to meet such a congenial young man. I'll have the servants send him over tomorrow morning."
Mrs. Xie nodded and looked at Xie Songlin who was sitting on the couch and drinking tea slowly. She didn't seem to have anything to ask, but she was a little curious.
Mrs. Xie put down the paper and pen in her hand, walked to Xie Songlin and sat down next to him.
Madam Xie poured Xie Songlin a cup of milk tea: "Try it, this is made by Madam Ye, I think it tastes great."
Xie Songlin took a bite, nodded, and praised: "It's really good."
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Mrs. Xie was a little surprised to see Xie Songlin didn't say a word.
Xie Songlin seemed to have remembered something and lowered his voice to say to Madam Xie, "I really do have something to say to you, Madam."
Mrs. Xie thought he was going to plead for Xie Wan Ning, so the smile on her face faded a little, and she slowly glanced at Xie Songlin: "Husband, please speak."
Xie Songlin said seriously, "If I'm not mistaken... the lady Ye you met today is probably the wife of the Seventh Prince."
"Really?" Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Songlin in disbelief, her eyes full of shock and disbelief.
Xie Songlin nodded hurriedly, his voice and words becoming more serious. "If the recent rumors in the capital are correct, then that should be it."
"If so... his identity may be revealed soon."
Xie Songlin lowered his voice and whispered, "I heard someone in the palace say that the Seventh Prince pleaded with His Majesty, saying that the position of principal consort must belong to this Lady Ye... Father also accepted Lady Ye's third brother as his closed disciple, and it just so happens that Madam is on good terms with the Seventh Consort today... This is the fortune of our Xie family."
Mrs. Xie fell silent and was speechless for a while.
If it was really Madam Ye, even if she was just a peasant woman, it would be no wonder that the Seventh Prince was so devoted to her.
Then I thought about that fake Xie Wan Ning, how could she compare with Ye Nanyue?
Fortunately, Mrs. Xie rejected her just now, otherwise... I'm afraid the Xie family will make a fool of themselves again!
"My husband, do you have anything else to tell me?" Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Songlin and couldn't help asking again.
"The servants have told me about Wan Ning's matter."
Xie Songlin looked at Madam Xie and said seriously, "Madam, you are right. You should discipline him properly."
"Perhaps we have been too indulgent towards her in the past."
Xie Songlin's expression also became serious.
Mrs. Xie looked at Xie Songlin in surprise and felt incredible.
Xie Songlin was actually... not angry?
Isn’t he the one who protects Xie Wan Ning the most?
