Chapter 960 [Ashes of Love: Red Mansion Tribulation 30]
After Runyu left, Youyou came to Jia Min with a heavy heart and told her everything that had just happened. When Jia Min heard this, her face turned pale in an instant, her face was full of horror, and she said with trembling lips: "Oh my God! I... I really didn't expect that my mother could do such a ridiculous thing! Yu'er, that is her own granddaughter, how could she be so cruel to send someone to the prince's room? If this matter gets out, your reputation will be ruined!"
Youyou bit her lower lip and said in comfort, "Don't worry too much, mother. Although the prince was very angry at the time, fortunately he did not lose his temper on the spot, and has not punished the Rongguo Mansion for the time being."
Jia Min frowned and sighed, "Although the prince has not said anything on the surface, he must think that our Rongguo Mansion has a bad family tradition and poor discipline. Alas, since my father passed away, my mother has become more and more confused. It's really helpless! Now, my mother dares to say anything without considering the consequences."
Youyou nodded slightly, thought for a moment and said, "Mother, when I marry into the palace, I will try to reduce the number of times I go back to the Rongguo Mansion. Those unimportant matters can be handled by the housekeeper of the mansion. In this way, we may be able to avoid a lot of trouble and disputes."
"Ah, it's all mother's fault. You have been implicated! Child, if you don't want to go in the future, don't go. Mother will bear everything for you. If those people come to bother you and the prince again, you must ignore them, and don't let yourself be wronged for the sake of mother's feelings. As for the so-called filial piety, I, mother, will take care of it. You don't need to worry about it. Yu'er, when you get married, you must be filial to your mother-in-law, do you understand?" Jia Min said earnestly.
"Yes, mother, I'll remember it." Youyou nodded obediently.
Jia Min slowly reached out her hand and gently stroked Youyou's soft hair. She couldn't help but sigh, "My Yu'er has really grown up, but my mother has gradually grown old."
"No, mother, you haven't aged at all. You're always so young and beautiful. If we go out together, people who don't know us will probably mistake us for sisters." Youyou blinked her bright big eyes and smiled mischievously.
"You little girl, your mouth is as sweet as honey, and you only know how to make your mother happy. Okay, okay, mother is going to see how your father is doing." Jia Min smiled and scolded.
"Yes, take care, mother." Youyou responded sweetly.
Jia Min walked slowly towards the study. She pushed open the door and saw Lin Ruhai, who was busy with official business at the desk. She walked quickly to her husband's side and called softly, "Master."
Lin Ruhai looked up when he heard the voice. Seeing his beloved wife approaching, he smiled gently and asked, "Min'er, what are you doing here?"
Jia Min frowned slightly and told Lin Ruhai exactly what Youyou had said to her today. When she finished, Lin Ruhai's face suddenly became extremely gloomy. He slammed the table and shouted angrily: "How dare the Jia family act like this! How dare you bully my daughter like this!"
However, just as he said this, Lin Ruhai seemed to suddenly realize something, and quickly turned to look at Jia Min and explained: "Madam, please don't misunderstand, I am not targeting you. It's just that the Jia family's actions are too arrogant, which makes people angry."
Jia Min nodded slightly, showing that she understood her husband's feelings, and said softly, "Master, I understand your feelings."
Lin Ruhai stood up, put his hands behind his back, and paced back and forth in the study, his mind churning. After a while, he stopped and said to Jia Min with a serious face: "Madam, I can't swallow this anger no matter what. Today they dared to blatantly send a woman to the prince, and tomorrow they might go even further and send the woman directly to the prince's bed. At that time, how should our Yu'er deal with it? Can she only swallow her anger and marry the prince in grievance, and from then on, she will be in harmony with him in appearance but not in spirit, and sleep in the same bed with him but dream different dreams? Yu'er is the apple of my eye, who was raised by my husband and me with great difficulty and cherished in our hands! If anyone dares to hurt Yu'er in the slightest, I will fight to the death with him even if it costs me my life!"
"My dear, I will firmly support you no matter what! This time, I will definitely stand by your side without hesitation." Jia Min looked at Lin Ruhai firmly and said earnestly. Obviously, what the Rongguo Mansion did this time had successfully touched her bottom line of anger.
Lin Ruhai frowned slightly and fell into deep thought: "Let me think about how I can get rid of this anger..." He muttered to himself as he paced back and forth in the room, seemingly quickly thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
At this time, Jia Min suddenly suggested: "My husband, in my opinion, why don't we send some people to investigate the details of the Rongguo Mansion. For some reason, I always feel that there is something wrong." She pursed her lips lightly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Hearing his wife's words, Lin Ruhai stopped, turned to look at Jia Min, and asked earnestly: "Madam, if I confront the Rongguo Mansion so directly, will you really not be worried? You know, the Rongguo Mansion is your mother's home." After that, he stared into Jia Min's eyes, trying to capture some of her real thoughts from her expression.
However, Jia Min had no intention of backing down. She stood up straight and replied indignantly: "My husband, you are wrong! How could they care about my face when they act like this? They don't even regard my Yu'er as a relative! Otherwise, how could they do such a ridiculous thing - my Yu'er has not yet married into the Rongguo Mansion, and they are actually trying to add other women to the prince's room! Fortunately, I have always treated Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun sincerely as my own nieces, but I never thought that they would have such an idea to steal Yu'er's corner!" At this point, Jia Min couldn't help but tremble with anger, and her eyes were slightly red.
Lin Ruhai stepped forward quickly, put his arm around Jia Min's shoulders, and said softly, "Madam, please don't be angry. It's not your fault. It's because we are both too innocent and kind that we were wrong for a moment and failed to see through the true colors of these people."
