As soon as Duke An Guo left, the third lady asked the maid beside her to call Fan over.

Fan suffered a loss at Ji Wan yesterday and was disappointed, but the more than 2,000 taels of silver had to be made up. She originally thought of going back to her parents' home to ask her mother for help, but then she thought that her mother had already given her 15,000, and she was afraid that she would not be able to get any extra money. What Ji Wan said also made her worry.

If the mother really touched the money given by the Central Committee, the Fan family also needed to explain.

She was worried about what to do with the more than 2,000 taels of silver, so she didn't even pay her respects to her mother-in-law, so naturally she didn't apologize to several elders as required by her mother-in-law.

Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law sent someone to invite her over here.

Fan thought that her mother-in-law wanted to ask her to apologize to her elders again, and she felt even more bored, but she had to go.

As soon as I entered the house, an object hit me.

She was shocked and subconsciously dodged. With a bang, the sound of the porcelain falling sounded crisply in her ears.

"Kneel down!"

The third lady shouted angrily.

Fan was startled, "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

"I'll let you kneel!"

The third lady's tone was even colder.

Fan looked ugly, "Mother, if I did something wrong, you just say frankly, why should I embarrass me in front of the maids in the room?"

"Do you know how to be shameful?" The third lady laughed furiously and swept the box next to her to the ground. "Look, this is your evil. You have lost all my face. What other face do you want?"

The box fell to the ground and cracked, revealing a stack of silver notes inside.

Fan's face turned cold, "That's what Ji gave to you? She actually ran to you to make trouble? This woman was just speaking righteously in front of me yesterday. I thought she was so upright, but she was still a contemptuous villain with a tongue-in-law. I said long ago that this woman is a disaster, you don't believe it..."

"Shut up!"

Seeing that she was not repentant, the third lady was so angry that she trembled all over.

"You say yourself, where did this silver note come from?"

Fan looked calm, "That little woman thought she had made a few money and showed off her power in front of me. She was superficial! Didn't you ask me to make up half of the expenses? I don't need the peasant woman's alms. There is still two thousand taels left, and I will make up for it soon. Let's see what she has to say."

"You're still quibbling!"

The third wife really regretted hiring this woman for her son as her wife. "You made a mistake but refused to admit it. You asked you to apologize, but you acted as a big shot and bullied the young. She even ran back to her parents' home to complain for money. Is my Lu family short of food or clothing? Is you so depressed you to go back to your parents' home to fight for the autumn wind? Since you look down on my Lu family so much, why did you have to marry my Erlang at the beginning?"

Fan's face turned red by her last words and said angrily: "What is my mother saying? Although it was my Fan family who took the initiative to send someone to match the situation, I was also the serious young lady who was married back by the eighth family of Lu's family. I have been in the school for half a year, but you said such words to humiliate me..."

No matter how strong a woman is, she also has a soft and fragile side.

Lu Erlang was the thorn on Fan's heart that could not move. She was scolded by her mother-in-law pointing at her back and scolding her, no matter how arrogant she was, she couldn't help but feel red in aggrievedly.

"I'm wrong first, but if the little woman hadn't made a big fuss and the eldest aunt blamed her, it would be only two or three thousand taels of silver, and I could afford to make up for it. Now I have lost several times in my life... Mother, you gave another order, how dare I be negligent? But how could I take so much money in my hand? Who else can I find if I don't go back to my parents' home? If it weren't for the face of our third wife, for Erlang, why should I compromise? I was also ridiculed and scolded by the little woman and humiliated in all kinds of ways... Now, my mother still says this to me..."

The third lady had never seen her give in. She was stunned when she saw her like this and felt a little loose. Then she thought of what her sister-in-law said, and her eyes became cold again.

"You don't need to fool me with these words." The third lady looked at her coldly, "I have lived for most of my life, and I can tell the right and wrong. If Awan really wants to humiliate you, there is no need to give you any chance. My sister-in-law and my sister-in-law have been for more than 20 years, and I also understand her temperament. If you hadn't done too much, she would definitely not come to trouble you, the younger generation. You have many complaints about Awan on weekdays, and can you still have a good face to her? Humph, I just didn't expect that she was not a little sheep who let you bully. A few words made you unable to get out of Taiwan. You felt embarrassed, but you poured dirty water on them. The Fan family really raised a good daughter. I blamed me for being blind and not seeing your true face clearly, so I responded to this marriage for my son."

She looked a little tired when she said this.

"You should have guessed that your mother has such a temperament... I just think that your grandmother is right and wrong, reasonable, and your elder sister is so gentle and generous, so you should not be bad either. But I forgot that it is not born to a mother, so there is still a difference."

"Mother!"

Fan's mother is the second wife. She has an elder sister above her, who is born by her original wife. She is beautiful, gentle, elegant and generous. Neighbors, relatives and friends all praise her. In contrast, she has an ordinary appearance and a rebellious personality, and her father and brother don't like it. Since childhood, she has lived in the shadow of her elder sister. She feels rebellious in her heart.

She doesn't like anything that the elder sister likes. She likes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she insists on dancing with swords and swords. The children of the generals should have been like this.

My mother is not as tall as my elder sister's biological mother, and her dowry is not as good as my elder sister's mother. My elder sister married me and was even more Marquis's Mansion.

She knew that she was not astonishing, not famous, and could not get a good marriage like her elder sister. Even if she was unwilling to give up, she had no choice. Later, she met Lu Erlang and fell in love with her at first sight. Fortunately, her grandmother and Old Lady Lu had some friendship, and the Lu family met this marriage.

In terms of family status, the Lu family is far better than the eldest sister's husband's family. Lu Erlang is still young now. Even if he cannot inherit the title, he still has a bright future with the help of his family.

Another point is that the elder sister can't compare to it anyway.

As the son of a noble family, my brother-in-law could not only guard the elder sister for the rest of his life. Before the elder sister passed by, the other party had a maid. After the elder sister became pregnant, in order to secure favor, she took the initiative to take two beautiful concubines for her husband.

But Lu Erlang is the only one.

This is the only place where she surpasses her elder sister, so she has to keep her guard and not allow any woman to share her husband.

After hearing too much about her and her sister, Fan felt deeply disgusted. Now her mother-in-law also felt that she was not as good as her sister. Fan had already accumulated aggrieved and anger in her heart, and her tone was soaring.

The third lady silently said, "I won't say much about anything else. Now you go to the Fan family with me."

Fan was shocked.
