Chapter 263 – Li Qiang Orders Li Na To Shut Her Mouth
"Li Rong"
Li Qiang called out when he saw his wife's avoiding his eyes. His face didn't have any emotion as he moved his eyes to look at his eldest daughter but she also didn't dare to meet his eyes.
Their actions disappointed Li Qiang very much as he understood that his wife and daughter had really done whatever was being said about them.
"I have never expected this from you, Li Rong."
Li Qiang whispered and Li Rong's eyes instantly went teary.
He was much disappointed in his wife.
Even after she knew what kind of life a concubine lived or what kind of environment a Manor with a wife and concubines have, she went to Xi Manor with such a proposal.
It was not only Li Qiang but everyone else belonging to Li family were disappointed in Li Rong.
Now other family members except Li Caihong were also starting to enter the front hall.
Li Hua who had first gone inside to call everyone in the front hall smiled fearlessly when Li Na glared at her with her red eyes filled with anger.
She was not afraid of Li Na at all and walked to stand behind her mistress without any hesitation.
Li Rui who noticed her actions looked at her but didn't say anything. On the other hand, Xi Ying was quite satisfied with Li Rui's maid clever actions.
"Have you already detailed them everything?"
He asked Li Hua in a whisper when no one paying attention.
Li Hua also seemed to have forgotten her grudges with Xi Ying at this moment and answered with a smile.
"Yes, Yes. This servant told everyone everything."
Xi Ying nodded his head with satisfaction while Li Rui looked at the duo speechlessly.
'Why do they seem so excited?' She couldn't understand at all.
"Elder Sister in law, how can you do such a thing? How can you go to my daughter's manor and ask her husband to accept your daughter as a concubine? Do you wish to ruin my daughter's married life?"
Yi Jie said in one breath and breathed deeply to control the roaring anger inside her heart.
Her daughter, Rui…she had finally gotten her husband's love and the happiness of married life. How could she, as a mother, bear to see someone ruining it with their hands intentionally?
Li Rong really didn't have anything to say for a moment after Yi Jie's words.
A pang of guilt filled her heart when she remembered she had really felt happy when she had thought that Rui was not favored by Lord Xi in reality.
However, this guilt disappeared when Li Na suddenly stepped forward and said to Yi Jie.
"Why is Second Aunt blaming my mother? I don't understand what is wrong with whatever she did. Hasn't Xi Manor accepted concubines in the past also? So what did Mother do wrong if she went to Lord Xi and asked him to take me as his concubine?"
Li Na said these words as she glanced at Xi Ying from the corner of her eyes.
In her eyes, Li Rui has trapped Lord Xi in her snare and she said all these words to make him realize that there was nothing wrong in taking a concubine even if has a wife already.
Xi Ying smirked coldly as Li Na's actions didn't go unnoticed from his eyes.
He didn't know if she was stupid or very brave as after seeing what happened to her sister… she still had the courage to throw herself over him.
Perhaps he should make her known that it was his shadow guard only who had thrown her away inside that room
"And Aunt there are so many noble families in the Imperial City…actually in the whole Xin, where men have concubines and now it is ordinary for two real sisters to marry inside a manor as concubines in the same Manor. Also me and Elder sister …"
"Li Na"
A cold voice interrupted Li Na before she could finish her words.
Li Na trembled when she saw her father's cold eyes and emotionless face.
"Shut your mouth and think before you ever speak again." said Li Qiang coldly to his daughter.
On the other hand, Yi Jie had an incredulous expression on her face.
Not only Yi Jie but Li Jiang's wife also looked at Li Na with disapproval filled eyes. She also had a daughter and would never appreciate her daughter to have such a sister who could think of snatching her sister's husband.
Li Jiang and Li Heng were standing silently as they seemed to believe that Li Qiang would manage this matter well by himself while Li Chen who was standing with cold faced Li Diu had a disgusted expression on her face.
"Second Sister, although I knew that you have never liked Elder Sister, I didn't know that you are shameless enough to think about Elder Sister's husband in this way."
The youngest daughter of Li Clan, Li Sying said with a displeased face and walked to stand in front of Li Rui.
"Elder Sister, I missed you so much."
Li Sying said as she hugged her sister's waist.
The still not adult girl didn't understand many things so she just said whatever came in her heart. And after saying her heart, she went to her sister whom she missed a lot.
But she still seemed to have understood that she can't attract much attention so after showing her love to her sister she quietly stood beside her sister.
Li Qiang looked at Li Sying and felt that she should not have seen or heard such a thing as she was still very young. So he said to her with a very serious face.
"Sying is very intelligent. Whatever your Second sister did or said was very wrong and Sying should never follow her example."
Li Sying immediately nodded her head and Li Jiang and Li Heng smile in relief,
Li Qiang words only meant that their clan was still together…just like how they were before.
"Yes, First Uncle. Li Sying will remember First Uncle's words."
Li Qiang forced a gentle smile on his lips as if praising Li Sying.
After that, he signed Third Madam Li to send Li Sying to her courtyard. Li Sying didn't want to leave her elder sister, but in the end, left from there reluctantly.
Li Qiang finally looked at Li Na again.
"Li Na, whatever you did or say was very wrong.. It is wrong to even think in that way and you will apologize to your Elder Sister for that."
