Distressed wife

Chapter 22
Mrs. Zhang waited more and more impatiently, wishing to kick open the courtyard door and break in.

"Ah!" The woman suddenly let out a scream, only to see a cloud flying towards her in front of her eyes.

The second wife, Zhang Shi, hadn't reacted yet, but felt a stabbing pain on her face, and quickly raised her hand to slap her.

The woman screamed and wailed, fell to the ground and rolled, her hands kept beating.

The Taoist priest who was following was also hit, and hurriedly dispersed it with a dust whisk, but was stung a few times.

For a while, there was a commotion outside the courtyard, and the girl and mother-in-law fell and rolled on the ground.

Biyun and Cuihong were overjoyed inside, even though they didn't witness it with their own eyes, they could tell how magnificent the scene outside was just by hearing the cry.

There was a smile on the corner of Mu Zi's mouth, and Yun Xiang said from the side, "Miss, it's really lively outside."

"Indeed." Mu Ziyan's eyes flashed an evil light, "But this is the beginning."

"Miss, the second lady is probably stung by a hornet." Rue Xiang thought that the hornet's nest had been prepared early in the morning, and the eldest lady ordered her to spread a layer of honey on the courtyard door early in the morning. If the door is too close, it will naturally smell of honey. When the wasp was released, she was the first to sting.

Yunxiang immediately felt relieved, and thought to herself, it's better to sting harder, what did you say just now?

"I want to see what Second Aunt looks like now." Mu Ziyan sneered.

There was a commotion outside the courtyard for a while, and then it gradually subsided. The second wife, Mrs. Zhang, was carried away, and the other maids and women were not spared either.

Especially the woman who barked the loudest just now was naturally the one who was stung the hardest.

Biyun walked in with downcast eyes, with a smile on her brows, "Miss, it's quiet now."

"Is Second Aunt the kind to let it go?" Mu Ziyan sneered, her eyes flickering with a faint light.

Sure enough, after only half an hour of silence, she heard footsteps outside the courtyard again, Cui Hong broke her mouth and said, "It's not safe in the middle of the night."

Biyun frowned, "Miss, is this second lady going too far?"

"Second Aunt was stung by a wasp and lost her head." Mu Ziyan said casually, thinking that she came prepared this time.

"Miss, the door of the Yanluo Courtyard is opened at will. Although she is the second wife, the wife of Lord Hou of Muhou Mansion is not her. She just waits outside." I think the second lady is deceiving too much.

Seeing Biyun's angry look, Mu Ziyan just smiled faintly, "Naturally she doesn't dare to force her way in, it's not reasonable, but this Marquis Mansion is not just my mother's decision."

Biyun sticks out her tongue, staying by Mu Ziyan's side these few days, she is more cautious than before, which restrains her lively temperament, seeing Mu Ziyan smiling calmly all the time, instead Let alone.

"Missy is talking about..." Yunxiang naturally knew that now that Madam is not showing up, Second Madam would not dare to go to look for it. Even if she did, Nanny Cui would block her, so she would definitely not be able to get anything good.

Mu Ziyan smiled meaningfully, and then heard the voice of the mother from outside, "Miss, the old lady's headache is getting worse, please open the courtyard door."

Now that Mammy came here, if she didn't open the door again, it would be unfilial.

"Miss, this..." Biyun stomped her feet resentfully, since the nanny stepped forward, that was the old lady's favor, and the door had to be opened even if it wasn't.

"Go and open the door." Mu Ziyan got up slowly after saying that, stepped out of the room, walked out of the room, and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

Cui Hong got the order, and hurriedly went forward to open the door, and saw Cong Mammy standing outside the door, beside her was the second wife Zhang who covered her face with a veil, but the red envelopes on her forehead were very eye-catching under the candlelight.

"Miss." Seeing that Mu Ziyan was not wearing the clothes she had just gone to Changsong Courtyard, she must have taken a rest early in the morning.

Long satin-like hair hangs behind her back, held only by a hairpin, her already tender cheeks are slightly pale, her face is tired, her eye sockets are red, swollen like walnuts, from the nanny's abdomen, The eldest lady is so haggard because she is worried about Mrs. Qiao.

"Second Aunt, your face?" Mu Ziyan slightly nodded at Cong Mammy, then set her eyes on the second wife Zhang Shi, her immature face was full of surprise.

Zhang suppressed the anger in her heart and the tingling pain on her face, and said in a low voice, "Miss, don't blame your aunt for nagging late at night, it's really that girl Xi'er is still in a coma, and I can't help it."

"What's wrong with the second sister? I should have gone in person, but I didn't go because I was worried about my grandmother and mother, and I didn't look good." Mu Ziyan lowered her eyes reproachfully, and when she mentioned the old lady and Qiao's , could not help crying.

Compared to Mu Zixi's weeping like a weak willow supporting the wind, Mu Ziyan's tearful and sad appearance is even more pitiful.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Zhang flashed a glint in her eyes, and continued, "Miss, this is the Taoist Master Ming Kong of Yunfeng Taoist Temple, with powerful mana. I am worried that Xi'er has provoked something unclean, so I invite you Daoist Master Mingkong came here, just now Daoist Master Mingkong practiced the method, and only then did he find the eldest lady."

Mu Ziyan raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Zhang, her watery eyes flashed with surprise, and then she said a little uneasy, "What does Second Aunt mean to say that the unclean thing is in our yard?"

"This..." Mrs. Zhang couldn't say it clearly, if she said it too clearly, it would be true.

"Miss, the old lady is suffering from a severe headache now, maybe..." Cong Mammy reminded from the side, the meaning in these words is obvious, that is, the old lady's headache is also related to this, if she does not allow them to be admitted to the hospital, That is to murder the old lady and cousin.

The words have come to this point, if Mu Ziyan persists, the old lady will definitely put pressure on her to do it by force, and if she finds out something by that time, won't it confirm her intention to murder.

Mu Ziyan thought that this was the way she was in her previous life, so she was plotted against by Mrs. Zhang and the old lady. Although her father arrived in time and saved her, her reputation was ruined after all.

Let me ask the majestic concubine of the Hou Mansion, who actually murdered her step-grandmother and cousin with the technique of disgusting victory, who wouldn't avoid such a vicious woman like a snake and a scorpion?

Mu Ziyan laughed secretly, it turned out that they had started their scheme early in the morning, using her to poison their mother and sister-in-law, and then beat her, so that even if they seized the position of Lord Marquis in the future, it would be the eldest house's own fault.
