Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 290 Dissatisfaction and Suspicion

She looked at Yue suspiciously, her face full of dissatisfaction: "Second Aunt, why is there only a box of pearl flowers? Where are the other jewelry? Didn't Second Aunt leave them all to Qiu Shuang?"

"After all, these are things given by my aunt. There's no reason for me to leave them all to Qiu Shuang." Fu Qiuyue lowered her eyes and looked at Yue with distrust, suspicion in her eyes. She called her Second Aunt, but her face showed no respect at all.

When Mrs. Hu heard her granddaughter's words, she suddenly raised her head and shot a sharp look at Mrs. Yue. Mrs. Fu's face also fell, and the whole family looked at Mrs. Yue.

Mrs. Hu glared at Yue and straightened up from sitting crookedly, but she then glanced at Mr. Fu again and saw that he didn't say anything, as if he was tacitly waiting for Mrs. Yue's answer, so she slowly sat back and waited for Mrs. Yue to speak.

Since her granddaughter has asked, she will not act like a bad person in front of the master, so as to prevent him from feeling sorry for the child born to the concubine and being dissatisfied with her.

Yue had never expected that the fire of "stealing things" would burn on her head. Seeing her whole family staring at her like a thief, she suddenly felt cold all over and her body was shaking with anger.

The niece actually asked her if she had stolen her things and left them for her daughter. The long-term depression made Yue unable to control her emotions.

Even the younger generation dared to humiliate her, so how could she stay in this family? Let her niece question her for stealing things. If others knew about it, how would her daughter and son survive in the world?

If a mother steals her niece's things, how can her own children hold their heads up high?

Yue wanted to get angry, but her voice was hoarse and she couldn't make a sound. Seeing everyone looking at his mother like that and his cousin questioning her like that, Fu Jinhuai couldn't help but step forward and hold his mother's hand. Fu Erlang saw that his wife was shaking with anger, so he hurried forward and put his arm around her shoulders.

Fu Erlang was chilled to hear this. In this family, his niece even dared to be rude to his wife. It was in vain that he usually loved his niece and nephew so much and would bring them any interesting gadgets he got from outside.

He didn't expect that his wife was not respected by his niece. He remembered that his niece would usually ask his wife to embroider a beautiful handkerchief for her, and sometimes to make an embroidered dress. Just because his wife's embroidery skills were outstanding, his niece called him a good aunt and asked his wife to make clothes for her.

I didn't expect that Yue would be questioned like this just for such a small unfounded thing.

His father actually acquiesced to his niece's questioning. Yue had always been respectful and filial to his father and stepmother. His stepmother was even wearing clothes made by Yue. Fu Erlang felt as if something in his heart had collapsed.

He glanced at everyone and spoke coldly on his wife's behalf: "Qiuyue, how dare you, a junior, speak to your second aunt like that? Is this the upbringing of the eldest granddaughter of the Fu family?"

"Father, Mother, Big Brother and Sister-in-law, Qiuyue questioned her Second Aunt like this, and you didn't care, did you? You said my wife kept something secretly. Father and Mother could have looked in the carriage. The servant at the door testified. After the three of us got out of the carriage, we went straight to the upper room to answer. Where could there be something hidden?"

"Qiuyue, you are so disrespectful to your second aunt. How good will your reputation be if this gets out? The eldest granddaughter of the Fu family, you falsely accuse your second aunt for something that is not true. You are disrespectful to your elders and have bad behavior. Which mother-in-law would dare to marry you in the future?"

Fu Erlangsheng put his arm around his wife's shoulders and spoke to everyone in the hall in a cold and resolute voice.

Even towards her niece, she no longer had any kindness and instead used the most unpleasant language to speak harshly, without any trace of her former kindness and gentleness.

When Fu Qiuyue saw that Fu Erlang actually spoke to her like this and even accused her of disrespecting elders, she couldn't help but cover her face and cry against Mrs. Hu.

"Uncle, I'm not disrespecting Aunt, I just want to clarify this matter. You misunderstood me. As long as Aunt and Uncle explain clearly, I will definitely not ask again."

After saying that, she threw herself into Hu's arms. Fu Dalang and Fu Dasao Lian were dissatisfied when they saw their daughter crying.

Lian felt sorry for her daughter and was very dissatisfied with her uncle. He was just a bastard, yet he dared to criticize the eldest granddaughter of the Fu family. "Uncle, Qiuyue is just a little girl. You also said that she is the eldest granddaughter of the Fu family. Can't you even ask your younger siblings why? Uncle, you are too harsh on your niece."

Fu Erlang sneered and didn't argue with his sister-in-law. He turned to his father and said, "There's no point in saying more in this situation. Father, please send one of our servants to check inside the carriage. They can also search Yue and me."
