That's absolutely unacceptable! How many beautiful women are there in the Marquis's mansion? How can they take advantage of their youth and beauty to act so recklessly?
Thinking of this, Li Niangzi became even angrier and was determined to teach Shouhua a lesson!
“My eldest sister did sleep quite late…” Kang Ning was a little embarrassed at this point. She couldn’t come up with a good reason to stop her mother from going.
But if we let our mother barge into my eldest sister's room like that, the scene would be quite a sight!
Of course, she didn't think Li Niangzi would be angry about this at all. In fact, she might even be particularly happy to see Wei Tingyu and Shouhua sleeping together.
But the eldest sister, Shouhua, lost all face!
In the end, it was Wei Tingyu who caused all this trouble by insisting on staying overnight at the teahouse last night!
Kang Ning was heartbroken! Her husband spent the night with her eldest sister, and she, the third child, had to clean up their mess...
But one is her own husband, and the other is her own sister; it's impossible not to help!
"No!" Although Li Niangzi seemed carefree in personality, she was, after all, a mother! She knew her five daughters very well!
Why did Third Sister Kang Ning so vehemently object to her going to wake her eldest daughter up? This is completely out of character for Kang Ning!
There must be something going on here!
"Third Sister!" Li Niangzi's eyes darted around, and she immediately glared at Kang Ning, asking, "What exactly happened? Explain yourself to your mother!"
Kang Ning was taken aback when she saw Li Niangzi's serious expression, because she knew that she absolutely could not joke with her mother at this time.
“Um…” Kang Ning frowned and then said in a low voice, “In eldest sister’s room… she wasn’t the only one!”
"What do you mean?" As soon as Kang Ning said this, everyone present raised their heads in shock and stared intently at her face.
Including Qiongnu, because she had no idea that Wei Tingyu would stay overnight at the teahouse after being pulled away by Kang Ning yesterday, she only thought that the Marquis would go back after nightfall.
“It’s just…last night…” Kang Ning frowned. How could she, an unmarried young woman, say such a thing?
"Is there a man in your room, eldest sister?" Wu Niang Le Shan asked in shock.
Because apart from that possibility, Corning had absolutely no reason to stutter like that!
Such a shameful thing must be something that can't be shown to others!
After thinking it over, it seems like this is the only possibility!
Of course, this idea wasn't unique to Wu Niang Le Shan! Li Niang Zi and the other sisters also had the same thought, but they didn't dare to say it out loud.
Wu Niang Leshan's words broke the silence, as if they had directly revealed the answer to the mystery!
Li Niangzi's face turned deathly pale in an instant, and her body swayed uncontrollably.
"Mother!" The second aunt, Fu Hui, and the fourth aunt, Hao De, reacted quickly and supported her from both sides, preventing Li Niangzi from collapsing to the ground!
"Oh dear! What sins have I committed?" Li Niangzi, who had been saved by Hao De and Fu Hui pinching her philtrum hard, cried out as soon as she regained consciousness.
"I know that my aunt has been a widow for many years, wasting her youth, and has always wanted a man with whom she could have intimate conversations!"
"But weren't they already preparing to enter the Marquis's residence? How did this happen?!"
"How are we going to explain this to the Marquis?"
"Our Li family is finished!"
Li Niangzi cried and wailed with a distressed expression; at this moment, she truly felt powerless!
Kang Ning stood there stunned for a full few seconds before suddenly realizing that her mother thought her eldest sister was with some other man...
"Mother! Don't worry, listen to me..." Thinking of this, Kang Ning quickly stepped forward and grabbed Li Niangzi's arm, saying, "You've misunderstood... actually it's..."
"It must have been this smooth talker who deceived my elder sister!" However, before Kang Ning could finish speaking, Wu Niang Le Shan frowned, turned around, grabbed the clothesline pole next to her, and shouted, "I'll go up there and beat him up, then send him to the authorities!"
"No, no!" Upon hearing this, Erniang Fu Hui quickly stopped Le Shan, saying, "What about eldest sister's reputation?"
"This..." Although Wu Niang Le Shan always liked to resolve things in a brutal way with fighting and killing, she still hesitated for a moment when it came to her eldest sister's reputation.
"If you ask me... let's teach this man a lesson first!" Fourth Sister Haode suggested. "Then we'll tie him up and take him to the Marquis's mansion to apologize to the Marquis! Then the Marquis can do whatever he wants with him!"
"Then, eldest sister... how do we explain this to the Marquis?" Erniang Fu Hui blinked and asked, feeling that this method didn't seem very feasible.
It seems like a dead end no matter how you look at it!
"But don't we have four daughters in our family?" Fourth Sister Haode thought for a moment and said cautiously, "Let's discuss it with the Marquis. If the four of us marry into the family as agreed, and bring more dowries, maybe the Marquis won't be angry!"
"What about eldest sister?" Fifth Sister was good at fighting and killing, but when it came to these kinds of plans, her mind was completely a mess!
"There's no other way now..." Upon hearing her daughters' discussion, Li Niangzi gradually came to her senses.
She shook off her daughter, who was supporting her, and stood up straight.
"Let's beat this damned villain up first! I can't stand this kind of thing!" After catching her breath, Li Niangzi took the clothesline pole from Wu Niang Leshan, turned around, and carried her skirt upstairs.
Judging from this posture, they're going to barge into Aunt Shouhua's room and catch her in the act of adultery!
Kang Ning stared blankly at her mother and sisters, completely unable to get a word in edgewise! The Li family mother and sisters had actually imagined a whole drama unfolding before their eyes!
It's understandable, though, as this is a crucial moment before her five sisters enter the Marquis's mansion, so Li Niangzi must be extremely nervous.
Before everything has settled down, even the slightest disturbance will make her extremely sensitive.
But she had no other choice at the moment. After all, it was really absurd to ask a mother to catch her daughter cheating!
……
Meanwhile, in Shouhua's boudoir, Wei Tingyu stood there with his arms outstretched, enjoying the service of this gentle and beautiful young woman.
Of course, with his keen hearing, he had heard the chaotic noise outside very clearly and knew exactly what had happened.
However, Li Niangzi's personality was quite agreeable to Wei Tingyu. After misunderstanding that Shouhua was having an affair, her first thought was not to cover up for her eldest daughter and deceive herself, but to catch them in the act!
This is truly remarkable; no wonder the Li family has raised five such outstanding daughters!
"What's all the noise outside?" Shouhua muttered, glancing at the door with a puzzled look as she knelt in front of Wei Tingyu to tie his belt.
“Your mother and sisters have misunderstood!” Wei Tingyu smiled slightly and looked at Shouhua kneeling in front of him.
Upon hearing his words, the other person also looked up at him. With one looking down and the other looking up, Shouhua's face flushed slightly as their eyes met.
"What's the misunderstanding?" Shouhua slowly stood up after tying Wei Tingyu's belt, and then helped him pull up his collar and sleeves.
After all, this is her real husband now! As the woman who served him last night, it is only natural for her to do her best now!
In Shouhua's mind, if Wei Tingyu's clothes are wrinkled or torn when he goes out today, then it is 100% his responsibility!
In situations like this, Shouhua always felt ashamed to face the other ladies and concubines in the mansion!
After all, if a concubine can't even do the most basic duty of serving her husband well, what hope is there for her to do anything else well?
“They know a man stayed overnight in your room last night!” Wei Tingyu said with a smile, raising an eyebrow at the hand slipping in front of him.
Shouhua blushed even more upon hearing this.
What do you mean a man stayed overnight in my room? Isn't it you, Lord Marquis? You're talking as if I've done something immoral!
But now that they know, there's nothing they can do! After last night, Shouhua has become much more open-minded.
Anyway, I'll have to face it sooner or later, so I'll go out with the Marquis later! Let my sisters laugh a few times, then have my mother sign the concubine contract, and that'll be the end of it!
Of course, Shouhua knew that Wei Tingyu was deliberately teasing her and wanted to see her blush.
But she couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly, and then stopped talking, instead focusing on straightening his clothes.
Sure enough, sleeping with someone makes a difference!
Shouhua is much more relaxed around me now, she even rolls her eyes at me?! I guess this is a little bit of fun between husband and wife!
“But they don’t know that this man is me!” Wei Tingyu whispered into Shouhua’s ear again.
Shouhua was initially a little shy about Wei Tingyu's approaching lips, and subconsciously leaned back.
Upon hearing what he said, her expression immediately changed.
The mother and sisters had no idea that the person staying at their place was the Marquis.
That is, thinking that you thought you were...
Thinking of this, Shouhua's face turned slightly pale. After all, her reputation was more important than her life! Especially the misunderstanding between her mother and sisters, which was something she absolutely could not accept.
"My lady, there's no need to worry!" Seeing Shouhua's somewhat worried expression, Wei Tingyu reached out and took her soft hand, saying, "Wouldn't this misunderstanding be cleared up if I go out with you?"
"Hmm!" Shouhua was taken aback before she realized what he meant.
That's right! As long as the Marquis makes an appearance, Mother and my sisters will naturally stop thinking the wrong thing! I was really caught up in the situation and didn't even realize it! I couldn't even understand such a simple principle?
Seeing Shouhua's changing expression, Wei Tingyu stopped teasing her and instead took her hand, leading her towards the door.
……
"You scoundrel! How dare you..." At this moment, Li Niangzi had already arrived at Shouhua's door with a clothesline pole. She could vaguely see a figure standing in front of the door through the paper covering the window.
The figure was clearly much taller than Granny Shouhua, and it was a man! So there was no need to ask, it was definitely the thief who stole the jade and perfume!
Moreover, the other party actually reached out to try to open the door, which angered Li Niangzi so much that she shouted loudly and raised the bamboo pole in her hand to chop it down.
"Mother! No!" Kang Ning tried to stop her, but it was too late. She hadn't expected her mother to be so foolish, attacking before even recognizing the other person's identity or appearance.
As soon as Wei Tingyu opened the door, he saw a bamboo pole coming straight down at his head.
Shouhua, who was following behind him, also screamed in fright!
"Ah!" With Shouhua's scream, Wei Tingyu stretched out his left hand slightly and gently pinched the bamboo root with two fingers.
