There was also sothing about her in the conversation. After hearing Yingzi’s words, Lian Manman couldn’t help but shuffle a bit on the edge of the kang, her gaze darting between Yingzi and Lady Gu.
"Why is Manman here? What’s going on?" Lady Zhang also beca alert and asked.
"It’s not about Manman, it’s not about Manman." Before Yingzi could speak, Lady Gu hurriedly said.
Yingzi let out a sneer, casting a sidelong glance at Lady Gu.
"Yingzi, if you hate , co at directly. Why drag Manman into this? This matter has nothing to do with that innocent girl." Lady Gu turned to Yingzi again, her tone softer than before, yet carrying an unmistakable sense of urgency.
Lian Manman glanced at Lady Gu, understanding that her implied aning was that she should not get involved in this matter.
"Forget about Manman, how about talking about your daughter Lian Huahua?" Seeing Lady Gu’s softened stance, Yingzi didn’t back down. Instead, she pressed a bit more.
"Yingzi, let’s speak nicely. You..." Lady Gu scanned Yingzi from head to toe with her eyes before speaking, "What do you want... we’re all family..."
"You venomous woman, you’ve done enough wicked deeds. I’ve heard plenty on my way here. If you want not to settle accounts with you, fine." Yingzi cut her off, "I’ll be the first wife, you’ll be the concubine. Whatever happened before, we can let it go. Otherwise, hmph, you know very well..."
Lady Gu and Yingzi were engaging in a veiled exchange, their words full of implications.
"You two might understand, but we all don’t understand," Lian Manman said, as the conversation seed to involve her. "Yingzi, speak clearly, what exactly are you hiding from us?"
"It’s just those things." Lady Gu quickly interjected again, "Manman, we’ve wronged you. But look at us now, we’re also facing retribution. You’re living prosperously now, and last ti Wu Lang also said he wouldn’t hold it against us... In the next life, I’d be willing to work like an ox and horse for you, burning incense and praying for you to beco a First-Class Lady every day."
"Don’t interrupt, thinking I know nothing and you can muddle through again?" Yingzi said.
"That’s right, I wasn’t asking you, I was asking Yingzi. Yingzi, you tell us," Lian Manman said.
Yingzi, a bit pleased, glanced at Lady Gu and was about to speak to Lian Manman.
"Yingzi." Lady Gu panicked and suddenly pounced on Yingzi, and the two of them wrestled again. In the midst of their tussle, Lady Gu whispered sothing indistinctly into Yingzi’s ear.
"What are you two doing, making a fool of yourselves? Get up. If you fight until your brains are bashed out, I won’t care," Lady Zhou scolded.
Lady Gu and Yingzi were separated again, and Lady Gu, taking advantage of the distraction, gave Lian Shouren a aningful look.
"I’ll be the first wife, you’ll be the concubine, there’s no room for negotiation," Yingzi said vehently to Lady Gu after standing up. "And don’t think it’s a big deal. I’m being soft-hearted. If it were anyone else, you wouldn’t even have the chance to be a concubine. You’d be kicked out for sure."
"This isn’t just for the two of us to decide. There’s still the master, Old Master, and Old Madam. If everyone agrees, I won’t say a word," Lady Gu said. Her words implied she was yielding to Yingzi, willing to give up the position of the main wife.
"Everyone, calm down. It’s getting late. Let Old Master and Old Madam rest. Not everything must be discussed now," Lian Shouren, who had been silent until now, interjected. "This isn’t a matter that can be resolved in a few words. Let’s calm down and discuss later."
"No matter when it is, it will always be this matter." Yingzi remained firm in her stance, but she didn’t press further.
It was indeed getting late, and Old Master Lian, having just recovered from a serious illness, needed rest.
"Grandfather, there’s no ti today. Tomorrow, I’ll invite a doctor from Jisheng Hall to co and see you," Wu Lang said as the Lian Manman family got up, addressing Old Master Lian.
Old Master Lian waved his hand repeatedly, making noises as if indicating Wu Lang not to call for a doctor again.
"Father, Mother, you have a good rest. We will leave now." Lian Shouxin and Lady Zhang bid farewell to Old Master Lian and Lady Zhou, and the family walked out of the Upper Room.
Lian Manman paused slightly at the doorway, turned to glance at Lady Gu and Yingzi, pondered for a mont, and then followed them out.
It seed Yingzi was hiding sothing and was using that hidden matter as leverage to threaten Lady Gu. From Yingzi’s words, it was clear that it was definitely not about Lian Shouren and Lady Gu using Lian Huahua’s life for money.
