Chapter 127 The Culprit

"What evil has been done!"

Looking at the back of her son leaving resolutely, the old lady knocked on her walking stick and shouted sharply.

She held a bellyful of anger in her body, unable to get up or down. When her eyes fell on Lady Jiang, it suddenly burst out.

"It's all because of you! You're the unlucky star!"

As if suddenly finding the root cause, the old lady scolded Lady Jiang furiously.

"Tell me, did you really hire those bandits who chased after Yun Xi?"

Otherwise, why did her son and that dead girl both insist that it was Lady Jiang? There was no smoke without fire, and she didn't believe that Lady Jiang was really innocent!

The old lady's words were cold and sharp. Lady Jiang shook her head desperately and crawled on her knees in front of the old lady:

"Old madam, it's not true! Daughter-in-law has been wronged!"

"Yun Xi hates me very much and wants to kill me. You and the master have both been deceived by her! How dare I hire someone to kill someone?"

Lady Jiang tried her best to explain, but the old lady became even more angry when she saw her. Without saying a word, she immediately slapped Lady Jiang twice and snorted coldly:

"Wronged you? Back then, I saw you were pitiful and designed my own son to keep you in the Yun family. I even handed over the power of managing the family to you. What did you repay me with?"

"You are so cheap! You not only concealed from me that you once fell into the music workshop and became an official prostitute, but also made it known to everyone afterwards. You made me lose all my old face!"

The more the old lady said, the angrier she became. Her eyes were almost fierce as she stared at Lady Jiang.

"Now, you still don't know how to behave yourself. You even dared to hire someone to kill my Yun family's descendants? You really have great skills!"

"Will you even kill me if I offend you one day?!"

The fact that Lady Jiang was once an official prostitute had already made her unbearable. If it weren't for her grandson, she would never have allowed Lady Jiang to stay in the mansion.

This time, Lady Jiang actually dared to hire someone to kill someone. It was obvious that she had a heart of snakes and scorpions. In this way, if she continued to stay in the mansion, it would not only be bad for her grandson's future, but also a disaster for the entire Prime Minister's Mansion!

There was nothing but contempt and humiliation in the old lady's words. She was still not angry after hitting Lady Jiang. She raised her walking stick and smashed it hard on Lady Jiang's back.

Although she was old, she was very strong. After two hits with the walking stick, Lady Jiang immediately groaned in pain and lay on the ground.

However, the old lady had no mercy at all. She even couldn't help but miss the days when Lady Jiang hadn't entered the mansion.

At that time, although she didn't like Su Yun, Su Yun was always respectful to her. Even when faced with her deliberate difficulties, she never showed the slightest dissatisfaction.

Not only did she search for famous doctors everywhere to cure her old cold disease caused by washing clothes for many years, but even her son was obedient to her and never as cold as he was now.

The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was managed in an orderly manner by Su Yun. Everyone treated her like a Buddha, and everyone was united and happy.

Comparing the current situation, the old lady was full of disgust for Lady Jiang:

"I was really blind back then. I was actually deceived by you, a cheap hoof! If it weren't for you, would our Yun family be so restless?"

Speaking of this, the old lady deliberately emphasized her tone.

"I don't care if you kneel down and beg that girl for forgiveness. Anyway, you must come up with a way to keep that girl as soon as possible. Otherwise, you don't want to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion either!"

The old lady threw all the blame on Lady Jiang and completely forgot that she was the culprit that caused all this.

Because she couldn't handle Yun Xi, she forced Lady Jiang to be weak in front of Yun Xi and made herself comfortable.

Lady Jiang was humiliated in public by the old lady and was beaten. She gritted her teeth with hatred and even pinched blood in her palm.

Looking at the old lady leaving, a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes, and she secretly swore in her heart:

It's not enough to deal with Yun Xi. Sooner or later, she will get rid of this old woman. Let's see who else dares to point fingers at her in the future!

After Yun Xi left the main hall, she walked straight to her own courtyard. Behind her was Yun Sheng, who walked quickly.

When she saw her father, a trace of helplessness appeared on Yun Xi's face.

"Dad, daughter is very sorry to make you difficult, but I really thought it through."

"As for mother's dowry and shops, daughter never thought of taking them for herself. She just didn't want to see them continue to be sucked by Lady Jiang. After all, this is the property of the Su family and should have been disposed of by the Su family. However, now, they have been scattered by Lady Jiang and are not enough to make ends meet. Maybe in a few years, the remaining shops will have to be lost!"

She was a very lazy and afraid of trouble person in her bones. As long as she had something to eat and drink, she didn't even want to move if lightning struck her head.

However, after experiencing the hardships of her previous life and this snow disaster, she realized the responsibility on her shoulders and could no longer continue to be muddle-headed.

She not only had to defeat Lady Jiang and change her tragic fate, but also inherit her mother's unfinished legacy of 'gathering the wealth of the world and relieving the suffering of the people'. She would do her best to make herself stronger.

This was more meaningful than being a parasite!

Yun Sheng didn't say a word. Instead, he walked in front of his daughter silently and gently stroked the top of her hair with his hand. Looking at his daughter's eyes that were very similar to his dead wife's, he said with emotion:

"Your mother gave birth to you prematurely. Looking at you, who was so weak and small in the swaddling clothes, dad swore to heaven at that time: If I can let you grow up safely and happily all your life, I am willing to pay for everything I have, including my life."

Listening to her father's words, Yun Xi was touched in her heart and her eyes were slightly hot as she lowered her head.

"I know."

She always knew that her father attached great importance to her and exceeded any of his other children.

Even though she made such a ridiculous request, her father still didn't scold her half a point. She was a woman and challenged the authority of her elders. This was absolutely impossible in an ordinary family!

However, she was determined to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. Only in this way could she shake off the shackles and do what she wanted to do freely and protect the people she wanted to protect.

"You don't know all of it."

Looking at his daughter's guilty little face, Yun Sheng suddenly laughed. It wasn't a bitter laugh or a cold laugh, but a bright smile that broke through the clouds.

"Now, you have grown up safely. Dad only has one last wish left. If I can let you be happy all your life, dad is willing to send you out of the mansion at any time even though he is reluctant to part with you!"

"The sea is wide enough for the fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for the birds to fly. Dad only hopes that you can find what you really want to do in the future and protect yourself. I will always support you!"

Yun Xi was surprised. She didn't expect that her father would really agree to her going out of the mansion.

"Dad, are you serious? You're not here to stop daughter?"

Yun Xi asked two questions in a row, but Yun Sheng was both crying and laughing.

"In your heart, is dad such an untrustworthy person?"

"No."

Yun Xi shook her head hurriedly. A flattering smile appeared on her lips:

"In daughter's heart, dad is the greatest! It's just that this happiness came too suddenly and made daughter unable to react."

Looking at his daughter, who shook off her previous guilt and looked like a ghost, Yun Sheng instantly felt a little aggrieved. He stared at Yun Xi and said:

"Stinky girl, are you so happy to leave your dad?"

"No, no." Yun Xi waved her hand and her face was smiling. How could she dare to nod.

However, Yun Sheng continued:

"Dad can agree to you moving out of the mansion, but I also have two conditions. If you agree, dad will let you out of the mansion."
