Lin Wei Xi was very satisfied with this result. Who do these people think they are, to actually blame her? Seeing Lin Wei Xi's face ease down, the Gao second lady was overjoyed, and quickly helped Lin Wei Xi sit back in her seat. Lin Wei Xi half-willing half-unwillingly sat back. Seeing that the farce had finally come to an end, and didn't become out-of-hand situation, Duke Yingguo old madam was relieved in her heart: "Yan Wangfei, this old body talking in a hurry just now. This caused a misunderstanding."

This was a roundabout apology. After all, Duke Yingguo old madam was forty or fifty years older than Lin Wei Xi. In a patriarchal society where the old was respected, a grandmother's generation could say to this degree was rarer than a red rain. How could Lin Wei Xi's previous life ever think that one day, she would hear her arbitrary and domineering grandmother apologize to her.

But Lin Wei Xi was not a person who stop while she's ahead, what she liked the most was to kill to the very last one. Lin Wei Xi smiled at the old madam. She had a beautiful face, and this one smile was like the sky lighten up for the first time, when spring return to the earth, it's a pity what she said was a different kind of situation: "Old madam, since today's scene is all a misunderstanding. Where is the servant who use their tongue to cause this misunderstanding? Can actually move Yan Wang Mansion's affair to the Duke Mansion, presumably this is a servant of Yan Wang Mansion. Under my rule, some people dare to do this. This matter also misled the old madam and the second lady. It is really a crime worthy of death. Old lady can just say it, no matter who it is, I will punish them severely and give justice to Duke Yingguo Mansion."

Duke Yingguo old madam was shocked when she heard this. She and Guo second lady looked at each other in surprise, never expecting Lin Wei Xi to do things this way. It was also an eye-opener for Guo second lady. Among the noble ladies she used to meet, which one were not thin-skinned. They regarded face more than life, even if they were angry, if other people were looking, they would wipe their face, and most of them would just let it go. But Lin Wei Xi didn't. They had already speak to this extent, and almost put the dignity of Duke Yingguo Mansion to dust, and they finally persuaded Lin Wei Xi to come back. But now Lin Wei Xi still want to pursue the person who passed the message?

It's the first time for Guo second lady to see such an unreasonable and unforgiving woman. Wasn't she too confident?

But who made the other person felt so confident? Lin Wei Xi was the Yan Wangfei, who was more than a round younger than Yan Wang, and the one Yan Wang personally seek to bring back. It was indefinite how much Yan Wang loved her. Even if Duke Yingguo Mansion were the in-laws, the one they catch was Gu Cheng Yao. They still need to depend on Yan Wang, so how could they dare to offend the little Wangfei whom Yan Wang loved so much? To make things worse, this matter was still Gao Ran who was wrong first.

Gao second lady scolded Gao Ran very much in her heart. This troublemaker, she caused troubles and was punished, and went home to manipulate her elders, and now she wanted to involve her elders to apologize for her.

Gao second lady took a careful look at her mother-in-law, and after receiving her instructions, she said a name with shame on her face. Lin Wei Xi knew it was one of Gao Ran's dowry servant. Although she was also from the Duke Mansion, she couldn't compare to confidants like Tao Mama and Ning Fu. Lin Wei Xi also knew that it was impossible to cut off Gao Ran's right arm all at once, and it also quite rewarding to be able to get rid of the dowry servant because the opportunity that Gao Ran presented herself.

Lin Wei Xi thought this way, just as the Duke Yingguo old madam wanted, and did not continue to question closely, but just dismissed the dowry servant. It happened that the master's family was also there, so Lin Wei Xi said, "This dowry servant was brought by Shizi Consort, since Shizi Consort has entered the door of my mansion, then these dowry servants are all become my Yan Wang Mansion's people. But they are from Duke Yingguo Mansion after all. I can't judge the severity of it, so I can only ask the old madam a few advises. You said, what should I do with this kind of villainous slave who plays with their tongue and incite disharmony between in-laws?"
