Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 351.1: Just the Aftermath Remaining

During these days, they’ve been continuously making noise, wanting to meet the main master. Now that they’ve finally met, each and every one all sternly threatened. Unfortunately, the old woman was too lazy to bother with them, directly letting someone have them seized, and have the anti-aging pill all poured down.

This anti-aging pill normally needed to be taken at least three days apart. Downing the five altered pills all at once, the side effect will only intensify. As for whether or not there will also be harm outside of ‘being unable to have children’, Gong Jiu expressed, he also didn’t know. After all, he didn’t find anyone to test the medicine beforehand.

Towards things that were forcibly poured down by someone, no one would believe it was a good thing.

“Old hag, what did you feed us?” They angrily questioned while reaching out to scratch their neck, wanting to have the thing vomited out.

The old woman was quite indifferent towards these people of the main family. The people of prestigious families, each and every one, all thought highly of themselves, arrogant and condescending. Precisely as the saying goes, ‘if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked’. With these younger ones already behaving like this, it was more than enough to see what kind of revolting appearance the parent generation, and grandparent generation were like. It’s also no wonder the family clan would fall to this current degree. Never mind not having power and influence in the imperial court, even if there was, to be this insolent, it will still only bring the family clan disaster.

“Fed you what? Heh, the anti-aging pill Jin Qinwang let someone send over.” The old woman said with a smile, “This kind of beauty preserving sacred medicine, how many people want, yet are unable to even catch a glimpse of. For you all to just eat five all at once, you should rejoice.”

Seeing these young ladies of the main family being like this, that bit of guilt of hers originally thoroughly disappeared. If she had to say, Jin Qinwang really was benevolent. There were plenty of ways to make a woman sterile, so why still waste thought and energy in making this kind of beauty preserving thing. At her age, she won’t really covet these things, but her married daughters, as well as daughter-in-laws, probably would very much like. In any case, they’ve also reached middle-aged already, and more or less long done with giving birth to children. To be able to become beautiful, who wouldn’t want?

Unfortunately, it was only just thinking about it. She didn’t have the guts to touch this batch of medicine, else she might not even know how she dies.

This time, each and every one all turned deathly pale, no longer putting on an act and holding their necks, instead completely disregarding their image, reaching into their mouth to dig at their throat. Unfortunately, it was all to no avail. That fingertip-sized medicine pill, not only taste pretty good, it even melted immediately upon entering the mouth.

“How can he really dare to? How can he really dare to? We are people of the Pei clan’s main family. The Pei clan is Jiangnan’s number one illustrious clan, number one illustrious clan, understand? Is he not afraid of offending the Pei clan? Who gave him such guts, who gave him such guts, ahhh………..” They hysterically screamed.

The old woman stood to the side like as if looking at a joke. With the name not matching the reality, what did the number one illustrious clan count as? Who gave Jin Qinwang the guts? Naturally it was his birth. Moreover, what he gave them was sacred medicine for preserving one’s beauty, even using the prescription the Pei clan had sent over. As long as this medicine’s side effect isn’t mentioned, who can criticize him of anything? And if mentioning the side effect, then will have to say what intentions your Pei clan have in sending him this prescription. If revealed, he not only can push away the blame cleanly, he can even openly look for the Pei clan’s trouble.

The old woman suddenly came to realize the reason why Jin Qinwang used the anti-aging pill in place of other children severing medicine. It was indeed very brilliant.

“Screaming at me, what use is there? If you have the guts, go scream at Jin Qinwang, and see whether or not he has the guts to directly have you all disposed of.”

“Old hag, old hag, you actually dare to help an outsider go against your own people!? Grandfather won’t let you all get away with this! Just you all wait, just you all wait—————-”

The old woman coldly glanced at them, precisely what one wants. She flung her sleeve and left…………..

“Old hag, hold it, I said hold it………..”

They viciously roared, but this wasn’t their own territory. If the owner of the place becomes determined, you as a mere guest can occupy the upper hand? Heh.

After leaving this side, she looked towards the tightly shut door on the other side. Ever since Pei Xiu Ying got violently beaten up, she hasn’t gone out that door. And the ones that have seen her, aside from the doctor, were just the two servant girls serving by her side. Speaking of which, the two servant girls also got sorted out very miserably. It couldn’t be helped, who let their master be favored, with them gaining power along with.

In the last few days, the old woman also just ignored her, but now, she directly let someone go knock on the door.

The door had just opened a small crack, when it just got roughly pushed open. If the servant girl opening the door didn’t retreat quickly enough, afraid would just get directly knocked onto the ground. Compared with those before that were recklessly insolent, their eyes were just filled with panic. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ Fire(.)net

“Where’s your miss?”

The servant girls stammered, unable to speak properly. The old woman was also annoyed, directly letting someone go find the person. The room was only just that big, so it didn’t take much effort, but after searching, they didn’t find the person.

The old woman coldly sneered. She really thought that she had no face to meet others, thus holing up in the room and not coming out. “How long has your master been gone?”

“Old madam……….”

“Shut up, I’m just a commoner old woman with no title and no rank, not worthy of this address^[1]. And it’s only the people of the main residence that dares to disregard the rules. Directly speak, how long has your master been gone? Don’t spout nonsense with me.”

“Just went out, just went out not long ago.” This servant girl right now was unable to be haughty in the slightest.

“Someone come, go have our main family fourth generation’s eldest young miss retrieved back. She is the role model for the Pei clan young ladies. Can’t let her embarrass the Pei clan.” The old woman didn’t believe that Pei Xiu Ying would be able to leave this residence. Because of the matters lately, she issued a death command. The residence’s front gate, back gate, side gate, and corner gate all got guarded very strictly. For anyone that takes a bribe and secretly have whichever master let out without permission, if caught by her, it won’t just be getting sold off that simple.

Just as expected, Pei Xiu Ying was still searching for an opportunity to go out. Unfortunately, she hadn’t been able to succeed this whole time. She was still inwardly cursing this ordinary residence for being guarded this tightly, like as if there was some treasure inside this lousy courtyard.

She simply didn’t know that this was all the influence brought about by Jin Qinwang.

Pei Xiu Ying wasn’t familiar with this residence. When the servants here deliberately wanted to look for her, it simply was just immediately finding.

Pei Xiu Ying got forcibly dragged back, yet she firmly protected the headscarf on her head. The injuries on her face and on her body have recovered, but on her head…………..

The old woman casted a glance, declining to comment, “It’s best if miss settles down a bit, don’t think that by exiting this courtyard, you can just accomplish your goal. Outside, there’s Jin Qinwang’s people guarding. Because of your wild ambitions, and believing yourself to be infallible, you have harmed the Pei clan to this degree. Could it be that you really want the entire Pei clan to be extinguished for you to finally be happy?”

Pei Xiu Ying pursed her lips and didn’t speak, but regardless whether it was her tightly clenched fist, or the stirring emotions in her eyes, not a single one didn’t manifest her stormy mood. Why should all the fault all be pinned on her head? She didn’t hesitate to incur her great-grandmother’s hatred, and even sacrificed her own reputation. Could it be that everything she did was all for herself? Then, all her sufferings right now, who should she look for to reason with?

Clearly it was everyone that wanted to harm her, abandon her, and scheme against her, yet now want to let her shoulder everything. Don’t even think about it. You all were heartless first, so don’t blame her for being unjust. Even if dying, she will also drag a bunch to cushion the fall!

“What business does tang great-aunt have?” Pei Xiu Ying restrained all the emotions in her eyes, indifferently asking, seemingly as if nothing had happened.

The old woman’s eyes flashed with astonishment. Having such a temperament, it was also no wonder the clan leader would make that kind of decision. However, letting a pawn learn that her original position was actually just a shield, and ultimately, will only be reduced to a discarded chess piece, getting shocked until one was unable to get up again was still okay, but for this one in front, afraid, this wasn’t the case. Perhaps, she’ll even devour back.

However, this has nothing to do with them. Even if getting implicated, still need to see whether or not she really had that big of a capability, after taking down the main family, still be able to nicely survive and come back to deal with them.

The old woman let someone have the bottle given to her.

Pei Xiu Ying opened the porcelain bottle, pouring out the pills inside. Although the size was somewhat different, but just based on that smell, she was able to make out what this thing was. “Anti-aging pill, already taken before long ago. Tang great-aunt actually doesn’t need to worry that I was putting on an act in front of Jin Qinwang. However, for me, it’s also just purely for beauty preservation. Heard it was difficult to make, and the medicinal ingredients used were also expensive. This kind of good thing, what reason is there to not eat.” Instinctively recalling Jin Qinwang’s words that day, she unhesitantly ate all of it one by one.

[1] The address 夫人 (furen) is only used for noble madams, or the wife/mother of officials. Generally, for wealthy commoner women that were married the address is 太太 (taitai) which I find that people usually just translate to madam as well since there’s not really a specific address in english that works. And for older or married lower class women, aka poor commoners, usually they are addressed as 大婶 meaning aunty.
