Chapter 1497: Make An Example
When the daughter-in-law of the Ye family, Zhou s.h.i.+hua, brought her younger sister, Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, to the entrance of the inn, she saw the plaque on the inn that was s.h.i.+ning with golden light. A flash of anger flashed across her eyes. When she saw the pig-headed face of this younger sister, Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, a flash of disdain and disgust also flashed across her eyes.
After that, Zhou s.h.i.+hua said to the guard guarding the door," Little brother, just say that I, Zhou s.h.i.+hua, have brought my sister, Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, to apologize to the princess of Guguo!"
After the guard reported to the people inside, he turned to Zhou s.h.i.+hua and said," I'm sorry. My master refuses to let anyone who doesn't have an invitation into the inn!"
What he meant in secret was, you don't have the qualifications to enter the inn, my master doesn't have the time to come out and see you!
When Zhou s.h.i.+hua heard the report, her face turned ashen, but she quickly regained her composure. The smile on her face was a little forced as she said," Oh, is that so?"
Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, who was beside him, shouted," What did you say? We can't enter the inn without an invitation?" Then, she flew into a rage out of humiliation and said," What arrogance! Doesn't she know who we are? She is the daughter-in-law of the Beiding Marquis' second wife.
"She, Lin Yuelan, was just a fake phoenix that had flown out of a chicken coop. How dare she treat us like that?"
"Shut up!"
Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+'s words made Zhou s.h.i.+hua's face turn ugly.
In fact, she had wanted to stop Zhou s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ from speaking. However, because Lin Yuelan bullied her sister and kidnapped her back to the Ye family, the head of the Ye family saw it and scolded her in front of everyone in the Ye family. In the end, she was asked to bring her sister to apologize.
She could return to the Ye family whenever the princess of the Guguo forgave them.
In this way, she, the second daughter-in-law, had lost all her face in the Ye family.
Therefore, she was mad at her sister. However, she was even more angry at Lin Yuelan.
However, everyone in the capital knew that this Lin Yuelan was not to be trifled with.
Therefore, she couldn't vent her anger on Lin Yuelan. However, she could vent her anger on her younger sister.
In any case, even if this younger sister had a good relations.h.i.+p with the Crown Prince Consort, even if she went overboard and her elder sister couldn't protect her, the Crown Prince Consort could protect her.
Therefore, she would scold her sister after Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was done.
She said with a serious face," Who asked you to be so disrespectful to the princess of Guguo? Who are you to blame the princess of Guguo?"
Then, she smiled at the inn's waiter and said," My sister is rude and reckless. As her sister, I apologize to the princess! Can I trouble you to pa.s.s the message again?"
Unexpectedly, the waiter sneered and said," Madam, my master is not free right now. Also, please discipline your sister well. Otherwise, when her mouth causes a huge disaster, it will be useless no matter how you scold her!"
When the two sisters heard this, their expressions changed, and their expressions became extremely ugly.
Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ could not be provoked anymore. She said angrily," You d.a.m.n slave! How dare you lecture me? Who do you think you are? You're just a dog!"
This time, Zhou s.h.i.+hua did not stop Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+.
She also thought that those words coming out from this lowly person were an insult to her.
And this humiliation was brought to her by Lin Yuelan.
"Hmph, what does it have to do with you guys, whether I cause trouble or not? Also, don't think that you're great just because your master is the princess of the Guguo. Who in the world doesn't know that she, Lin Yuelan, was born into a lowly peasant family? Now, why is she putting on airs here?"
Seeing that Zhou s.h.i.+hua did not stop her, Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ became even more indiscreet. The contempt and disdain in her eyes were unconcealed as she continued,
"Hmph, we've already given her enough face by coming here to apologize. Get her to come out here to accept our apology!" Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+'s words seemed to be extremely rebellious.
"Hehe, this princess actually didn't know that someone would be so bold as to insult this princess in front of this princess's door!"Lin Yuelan walked out from inside and said coldly," It seems like Governor Zhou has a good upbringing! He taught his two daughters so well. One day, this princess can ask Governor Zhou for advice! I want to see how Governor Zhou manages to raise such good daughters!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ and her sister's expressions changed drastically.
