Chapter 198 Don’t come over
Mrs. Wu was originally sulking in the room, but the word "rubbish" directly threw the Wu family's reputation to the ground and trampled on it. A divorced daughter dared to despise the Wu family. Mrs. Wu was really angry.
Seeing Xue Sitong coming to the door, he put his thoughts aside and welcomed him in with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Xue Sitong came up and said, "Mrs. Wu, I have a way to let my sister marry Mr. Wu."
Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes, took Xue Sitong's hand and sat down.
"Ms. Xue, we originally agreed to marry Miss Jiang for the sake of the Xue family. We didn't expect Miss Jiang to despise our Wu family so much. A forced marriage won't be sweet. Let's forget about it. I think you and our Xin'er are still a better match."
Xue Sitong became anxious after hearing this, "Mrs. Wu, please don't."
Then he told her about the reward Jiang Yutong received today, "My sister is quite capable. The daily income of her skin softening shop is eye-catching, not much less than that of our entire Xue family. I heard that her shop in Yinbai County is doing well too, and she is planning to open shops in other places in Daqi."
Mrs. Wu's eyes lit up. This was indeed the reason why Mrs. Xue fell in love with Jiang Yutong. The Xue family was now an empty shell. Although Wu Xin had an official position, the family was extremely poor. They didn't even have two decent clothes or jewelry to go out and meet people.
I originally thought that Jiang Yutong was married before, so she would be the easiest to handle. But today I found out that she is actually a powerful person.
Mrs. Wu shook her head. "Forget it. Even though our Wu family has fallen on hard times, I was already unwilling to marry a divorced woman. Now she's even looking down on us."
Xue Sitong smiled and said, "Madam Wu, as long as this is done, it's not impossible to let my sister become a concubine. After all, her status is there."
When Mrs. Wu heard that she could become a concubine, she felt even happier. This way, she could get Jiang Yutong's money and find a wealthy family for Xin'er. It was really a good thing.
She quickly took Xue Sitong's hand and said, "Good girl, what method is it? Please tell me in detail. If this can be accomplished, our Wu family will never forget your kindness."
Xue Sitong leaned close to Mrs. Wu's ear and told her his plan in detail.
Mrs. Wu suppressed her fear. She had never expected that such a young man could be so vicious.
Xue Sitong looked at Madam Wu and saw her nod. She handed over a portion of the things in her hand, "Just in case."
Only then left.
Jiang Yutong was resting in the Zen room at the moment when Xia Zhu came in and whispered a few words in her ear. Jiang Yutong nodded and said, "I understand. You can go down."
After a while, there was a knock on the door. Dongmei opened the door and saw it was Xue Sitong.
Xue Sitong looked inside and saw Jiang Yutong lying on the bed fully clothed. She quickly said, "Sister, let's talk."
Jiang Yutong turned around, still looking angry. "What else can we say? After all, mother is your mother. It has nothing to do with me."
Xue Sitong ignored Dongmei's obstruction and slipped into the house.
Then he sat on the stool beside Jiang Yutong's bed.
"Sister, please don't say such angry words. I'm worried about you. Because of what you said at noon, I'm so angry that I'm still crying. No matter how I try to persuade you, I can't stop crying."
Xue Sitong looked at Jiang Yutong's expression and saw that she seemed to be a little relieved, so she continued, "Mom has been in poor health for many years. It's not a good idea to keep crying like this. Sister, why don't you come with me to persuade her?"
Jiang Yutong made an uncomfortable expression, "I was just angry at the moment, why are you still crying?"
Xue Sitong stood up and poured a glass of water from the table. "Sister, I'll use tea instead of wine to apologize to you. Please forgive me and come with me to see mother."
Jiang Yutong took the cup of water and said, "I was wrong too. Let's have a drink together and forget about it."
After saying that, he got off the bed, took the teacup to the table, took another cup, poured a glass of water and handed it to Xue Sitong.
Xue Sitong took the cup, the two of them clinked their glasses, and drank the water together.
The two put down their cups at the same time. Xue Sitong took Jiang Yutong's hand and said, "Come on, sister, let's persuade mother together."
Jiang Yutong nodded and went out with Xue Sitong.
Dongmei wanted to follow, but Jiang Yutong said directly, "You stay and take the Heart Sutra I just copied to the Buddhist temple to worship it."
As expected, Xue Sitong saw the newly copied scriptures on the desk.
Dongmei nodded.
Xue Sitong was delighted, as it was more convenient without a maid following her.
Then the two of them walked to another meditation room, one in front and one behind.
Jiang Yutong asked, "Why did Mom change rooms?"
Xue Sitong smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't have time to tell you that there was a rat in the meditation room just now, and the abbot arranged for someone to replace it."
Jiang Yutong didn't ask any more questions.
Arriving at a secluded place, Xue Sitong stopped and said, "Sister, please go in. I'll be waiting outside. You can have a good talk with mother."
Jiang Yutong nodded, opened the door and walked in.
Xue Sitong quickly closed the door.
After Jiang Yutong went in, she saw Xia Zhu inside and Wu Xin lying on the bed. Xia Zhu nodded at Jiang Yutong, indicating that everything had been handled.
Jiang Yutong smiled. She didn't expect Xue Sitong to be so vicious. So don't blame her for being rude.
Then Xia Zhu jumped out of the window, and Jiang Yutong followed suit.
Xue Sitong put his ear to the door, but didn't hear any sound. He thought it might not be that fast.
Somehow, Xue Sitong felt hot and fanned himself with his hands. It was quiet inside and something was wrong.
At this moment, a force pushed Xue Sitong into the door, and before she could react, the door closed.
Xue Sitong then realized that something was wrong and looked around the room. Jiang Yutong was nowhere to be found, only Wu Xin lying on the bed.
Xue Sitong's body was getting hotter and hotter, and she slammed the door vigorously.
No one answered her, and the maidservant beside her was sent away by her.
At this time, Wu Xin on the bed woke up slowly, feeling something strange in her body. She turned around and saw Xue Sitong collapsed by the door.
Only at this moment did Wu Xin remember what his mother had just said to him.
Fortunately, Wu Xin didn't lose her rationality and refused her mother. "Mom, although Miss Jiang comes from a small place, her brother is a general after all. If the matter gets out of hand, our Wu family will not stand any benefit."
"This matter is not a big deal. Only Madam Xue and I know about it, so you can rest assured."
Wu Xin still refused.
Mrs. Wu sighed, "Well, I was too impatient. I really shouldn't have done that."
Only then did Wu Xin say goodbye to Mrs. Wu and return to his own meditation room.
Because he was a male family member, his meditation room was relatively remote.
Unexpectedly, I felt something was wrong with my body as soon as I arrived at the meditation room. After thinking about it, I remembered that I had drunk a cup of tea at my mother's place.
Before he could react, he was knocked unconscious.
Xue Sitong also noticed that Wu Xin had woken up, so she clutched her clothes tightly and shouted, "Don't come over here."
