After Becoming the Villain Mother-in-Law, I Launch My Redemption Arc Chapter 235: Coincidence, or Something More?

Looking at the Princess, whose face commanded respect even without anger, Fu Qin shivered inside.

"If I find that even one word you said is untrue, don’t bla for not considering the past," the Princess said slowly.

Fu Qin still wanted to argue, but thinking of the Princess’s formidable thods and knowing she was never soft-hearted, she kowtowed constantly, "Princess, spare my life, Princess, spare my life, it was this servant speaking nonsense. It was Miss from the Du Mansion who bought things first, and then I went after them. But, but it was the shopkeepers at the Fragrant Cloud Hairpin Shop who were too excessive. They sold to Du Ruyi, but not to . I ntioned the Commandery Princess’s na, but they didn’t care at all."

"Who allowed you to use the Commandery Princess’s na outside without permission? Soone, drag her out," the Princess said sternly.

Two old won entered the room, lifted Fu Qin from both sides, and dragged her out.

"Your Highness, spare , Commandery Princess, save , I dare not do it again, I will never dare again." Fu Qin’s voice was mournful.

Bao Ping felt a little reluctant, "Mother, Fu Qin has been with for a long ti, this ti..."

"Ineffective in her duties and daring to fra others; can you dare to use such a person? Going around flaunting under your na, doesn’t that harm your reputation? My son, Mother knows you are soft-hearted, so I will be the villain for you," said the Princess. "Hurry up and drag her away, why are you dawdling?"

Imdiately, soone stepped forward to gag Fu Qin and quickly dragged her away.

"But, but..."

"Don’t worry, Mother will find you a reliable and capable maid," the Princess gently patted Bao Ping’s hand.

Bao Ping opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn’t plead for rcy.

"Daughter will listen to Mother," Bao Ping said softly.

"Mother knows you have always been obedient. Alright, Mother is tired now, you may go back," the Princess said.

"Daughter takes her leave," Bao Ping made a courtesy and turned to leave.

"Cai Yun, tell , since Du Ruyi doesn’t consider the Commandery Princess’s title, does it an she doesn’t respect ?" the Princess asked the servant beside her, "What do you think would be the best way to punish her?"

"Also, have you found out the identities of the people Du Ruyi brought back to her mansion? What is their relationship with the Zhao Mansion and the Du Mansion?"

"Our people find it hard to enter the Du Mansion. However, from the Zhao Mansion, we got so information that says they are maids and servants around Du Ruyi," Cai Yun replied. "The information ca from the third lady’s courtyard of the Zhao Mansion."

"How much do you think this information is credible?" the Princess asked.

"This servant believes it is not credible," Cai Yun said.

If they were simply maids and servants, why would Du Ruyi personally bring them into the Du Mansion?

"Has Du Ruyi really not borne children after all these years of marriage?" the Princess asked.

"Indeed, she hasn’t. It’s said she ruined her health and cannot bear children," Cai Yun said. "Also, more information was obtained, and those two have the surna Zhao."

"Oh?" the Princess gently tapped on the table, "Surna Zhao?"

Cai Yun responded affirmatively.

Is this just a coincidence, or is there sothing else behind it?

First being secretive outside the Zhao Mansion, then taken back to the Du Mansion by Du Ruyi, and brought along to the Zhao Mansion.

She didn’t think it was a coincidence.

"Still no news of Zhao Ting?" the Princess asked.

Cai Yun shook her head.

"Isn’t the peony at the Princess Mansion about to bloom?" the Princess suddenly asked.

Although a bit surprised, Cai Yun still respectfully replied, "The gardeners are taking great care, and in another three to five days, they’ll bloom."

"How about I host a flower banquet? Invite old friends to enjoy the flowers," the Princess said. "Du Ruyi definitely needs to be invited. Now that she has returned ho, I am kind-hearted and invite her to enjoy the flowers and relax."

Cai Yun, having served the Princess for many years, certainly understood the Princess’s intentions.

By ’old friends,’ she clearly ant Du Ruyi’s old acquaintances.

Moreover, those who are not on friendly terms with Du Ruyi, and now have children and a loving husband.

Du Ruyi showed no respect to the Commandery Princess, so how would the Princess give face to Du Ruyi?

"Being able to attend the banquet hosted by Your Highness is their fortune," Cai Yun said.

"I think so too," the Princess said with a smile. "Rember to invite the two madams from the Zhao Family, understood?"

"This servant has noted it down."

"I can’t wait to enjoy the flowers."

"The servant will imdiately draft the invitations and bring them for Your Highness’s review after they’re prepared," Cai Yun said.

"I’ve always trusted you in handling matters."

Du Mansion.

Du Ruyi selected a few hairpins from what she bought, "Xiaohua, help see, are these suitable for my sister-in-law to wear?"

"How could Aunt Du’s taste not be suitable?"

"Your little mouth, did you sar it with honey?"

Zhao Xiaohua chuckled.

"Let’s go, accompany to deliver the hairpins."

"Alright."

Madam Du indeed loved the hairpins Du Ruyi selected. Knowing they were from the Fragrant Cloud Hairpin Shop, she was so delighted that her mouth couldn’t close.

She personally took out a wooden box and placed it in front of Du Ruyi, "Keep these, Fragrant Cloud Hairpin Shop’s hairpins are not sothing you can buy just with silver. Sister-in-law can’t let you go through the trouble and spend silver."

"Sister-in-law, are you not considering as family? Then again, a married daughter is like water spilt. Now that I’m back ho, it’s not sothing to be proud of..." Du Ruyi presented a look of sadness, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I’ll look for a place to move out soon."

"Are people below gossiping?" Madam Du glanced at the big maid nearby, "What did I instruct?"

Then, she quickly comforted Du Ruyi, "How could sister-in-law not consider you family? Sister-in-law is just afraid you will spend all your own silver carelessly."

"Sister-in-law really doesn’t mind ?"

"You did nothing wrong, why should sister-in-law mind? If your brother hadn’t failed to help you make a good match back then, you wouldn’t have suffered like this. Your brother and I feel guilty beyond asure, wishing we could go back and stop it back then," Madam Du sighed, "If Father and Mother knew, they would be very pained for you."

After speaking, she wiped her tears.

This ti it was Du Ruyi who had to comfort, "If Brother knew I made Sister-in-law cry, he wouldn’t have to punish ? Good Sister-in-law, am I not doing well now? This is also a blessing after surviving a great disaster."

"You take this silver, and Sister-in-law will stop crying," Madam Du said.

"Sister-in-law just said I spend silver recklessly, these will temporarily stay with Sister-in-law, and when I run out of silver, I will co to Sister-in-law for more," Du Ruyi said.

"Then be sure to let Sister-in-law know when you have no silver," Madam Du advised.

"Rest assured, Sister-in-law, I definitely won’t be polite with you," Du Ruyi said.

"We are family, no need to be polite, Ruyi, there are many people in the Mansion, so with loose lips. Usually, Sister-in-law tries to restrain them, but inevitably, so might speak behind your back. If you hear it, just deal with it directly," Mada Du said. "Don’t think too much and wrong yourself."

"If I don’t deal with it myself, I’ll go to Sister-in-law to complain," Du Ruyi said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law will have my back."
