Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

Chapter 497: Take responsibility and marry his son?

"Wei Dianji, please stand up." Seeing that he had taken the responsibility, Shen Wenting said generously, "This is just a play between children. This naughty servant made a mistake, and it is not your fault. Everyone has a few disobedient servants. You can take him back and discipline him, and this matter will be resolved."

But just as he finished his words, the little maid suddenly stood up and rushed towards the pillar. Fortunately, a warrior who knew kung fu rescued her in time.

Although Wei Dongyang and the others did not do anything to the maid, she was drugged and behaved so badly in public, which was no different from losing her innocence. The maid had a strong temper and thought that she would never be able to face people in the future. Rather than being pointed at by others in the future, it was better for her to die.

"Although they are fine, the maid's life is also a life. She suffered an unexpected disaster, are we going to let it go?" Yao Qingnian sneered, "And this boy, he is so bold and presumptuous, how can we just let it go? Not only did he ruin the maid's reputation, he almost caused our young master to suffer an unjust accusation.

This is because he imprisoned the wrong person. If my brother is imprisoned, his brain has been severely injured and he has not yet recovered. He can't speak clearly. Wouldn't he be criticized by everyone and be charged with the crime of adultery, which will affect the reputation of our Shen family, father, don't you think so?"

Shen Wenting was speechless for a moment. What Yao Qingnian said was absolutely right. The reputation of the mansion was the most important. If it ended hastily like this, it would definitely lead to gossip from everyone. He looked at Wei Dianji.

Everyone was talking about it. Yes, it would be too easy for him to just take the person back like this. And this maid was clearly wronged, but Lord Shen didn't care about her life or death at all. She had no choice but to die to prove her innocence. She was also pitiful.

Wei Dianji almost knelt down again after he stood up. There was nothing he could do in the current situation, so he could only say: "Miss Shen is right. Since this matter was caused by someone in our house, we must take responsibility.

Little maid, how about this? I will give you two choices. The first is to marry my son. The second is that I will ask Lord Shen to return your indenture to you and give you enough money to leave the mansion and start a new life somewhere else. "

His arrangement was considered responsible towards the maid. There was no coercion and it all depended on her own wishes. Yao Qingnian actually had a higher opinion of Wei Dianji.

"Father! How can a lowly maid like her be worthy of marrying me? Even if she becomes my concubine, she is marrying above her station!" When Wei Dongyang heard that his father wanted to marry the maid to him as his wife, he immediately got anxious. Although their family was not a noble family in the court, they were also a well-known wealthy family in the capital, and a family of scholars.

"Shut up! I have already made the decision on this matter. It is not your turn to comment!" How could he not know that this matter was closely related to his son? He took the initiative to propose a solution for the sake of this rebellious son.

The maid had no parents and was alone. Now her reputation was ruined, so she naturally could not stay in the mansion. It would be a good thing if she could enter the Wei Mansion, but looking at the look of Young Master Wei, even if she married in, it would definitely be forced upon her. After much hesitation, she decided to take the silver, leave the Shangshu Mansion, and find a place where no one knew her to start a new life.

"Thank you Wei Dianji. I know that I am of humble status and unworthy of Master Wei. I am willing to choose to leave the Shen Mansion." The maid said with a pale face.

"You're smart!" Wei Dongyang said with disgust.

"Miss, have you thought it through?" Wei Dianji confirmed with her.

"Yes." The maid nodded.

"Well, Lord Shen, since the maid has agreed, how do you think I should handle it?" Wei Dianji looked at Shen Wenting.

"Then follow Wei Dianji's arrangement." Seeing that no one had any objection, Shen Wenting agreed as well. She was just a maid.

"As for this servant, he is a servant in my house. We are to blame for what he did today. Lord Shen, please show some mercy and hand him over to us for severe punishment.

Today is your birthday party. Please don't disturb everyone's mood because of this little thing. I will come to your house in person to apologize to you and Young Master Shen someday!" Wei Dianji politely saluted Shen Wenting, giving him enough face in front of everyone.

Shen Wenting had nothing to be dissatisfied with. He smiled and nodded, then asked everyone to go back and sit down while the banquet continued.

"Sister, it was a close call just now. I didn't know there was a maid in there. If she had really gone in, your brother's innocence would have been in vain. Fortunately, I was smart and locked the door for them first." After everyone left, Shen Jinghong leaned close to Yao Qingnian's ear and said with a smile.

"Well done, but you'd better be careful with Shen Haobo in the future. Although he is simple-minded and strong-willed, he is full of bad intentions. It's better to be careful." Yao Qingnian really admired Shen Haobo. He didn't learn his lesson after being beaten so many times. Fortunately, Shen Jinghong was fine today, otherwise he would have been crippled.

"When the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. I am not afraid of him. I am your brother, pretending to be stupid, but I am not really stupid." Shen Jinghong looked at her lovingly.

"In short, it's always better to be careful," Yao Qingnian reminded.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you for the reminder, sister. Let's go to the banquet hall to join in the fun." Shen Jinghong pulled her towards the banquet hall.

Most of the people present today were there to flatter Shen Wenting, and Yao Qingnian almost fell asleep while listening to them. After a while, the opera troupe invited by Yan Huan from outside the mansion began to sing, and she finally became a little interested. However, she felt a little bored after a while. The singing was so noisy that it gave her a headache. She was not interested, so she walked out in person and planned to go back to the yard to rest.

When passing the wooden bridge in the backyard, she happened to run into Shen Youran who came out to get some fresh air. The two met on the bridge. Yao Qingnian ignored her and prepared to leave.

"Sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Why don't we find a place to sit down and chat?" Shen Youran said with a smile.

"There's no one here, why are you pretending? If you have something to say, just say it here." Yao Qingnian didn't want to play any sisterly games with her.

"I am the concubine of Prince Rui. You should bow to me when you see me." Shen Youran had been waiting for this day for a long time. She finally got this opportunity and she had to kowtow to him.

"Are you sick? Is there anything else to say? If not, I'll leave first." Yao Qingnian rolled his eyes.

"You are just jealous that I married such a good husband as King Rui! I order you to kneel down and salute you, otherwise I will shout loudly that you are disrespectful to me." Shen Youran blocked her way.

Yao Qingnian looked at her like a fool: "Get out of the way."

"If you want, kneel down and kowtow! I have royal blood in my belly, you have to listen to me in front of me!" Shen Youran stood in front of her, supporting his waist, with a proud look on his face.

"Don't you know whether you are of royal blood or not? Get out of the way! If you don't, don't blame me for being rude."
