Chapter 936: Madam, are you okay?
Chapter 936 Madam, are you okay?
It's scary for a group of ladies to gossip. It didn't take long before everyone at the dinner party almost knew.
Everyone condemned the countess.
"The countess is not worthy to be the mother/mother-in-law of Ian and Miss Dou!"
"That is, Miss Dou has been married to country M all the way, not to mention treating her like a guest, at least as a relative, and even if Miss Dou came, she gave her off the horse."
"Ms. Dou's maiden is also capable, otherwise she will sniff out tonight."
"I really want to see how the countess reacts in that kind of dress."
These gossip quickly reached the earl.
Earl was so angry that his forehead jumped with blue veins. He called Ian aside and asked in a deep voice: "Ian, what the **** is going on this afternoon?"
"That's what everyone said."
Earl's face is getting worse, he is angry with the countess, and also with Ian.
"Don’t you know this kind of thing waits until the guests leave?"
"Is my father worried about embarrassment? But this is what the cousin asked her sister to say... I forgot to tell my father that the cousin is very short-term, if it weren't for her to take care of this time, she might not die, otherwise she might have gone to see my mother. "
When the earl heard these words, his face turned blue to a terrifying level, but the king paid so much attention to Lu Jingye and Zi Yi, he couldn't say anything.
The earl's chest rose and fell for a while before he said: "I will give them an explanation after the dinner."
Ian's lips curled up when he heard this, and he kindly suggested: "Father shouldn't understand what the cousin meant. What she wants is for her mother to wear her dress to the dinner party."
Earl looked at him coldly.
Ian didn’t show up, his eyes were equally sharp.
Only at this moment did the earl realize that his second son, who had never cared much, was even more ruthless than he thought.
He stood there with a calm face for nearly half a minute, then suddenly turned to call the butler, and said to him: "Go and invite the lady out and tell her that I must wear the dress Ian prepared for her, or I will go back to her mother's house. ."
When the countess walked into the banquet hall, most people looked at her.
At the moment, the countess’s expression looked a little distorted.
After she put on the dress, she didn’t feel anything just now. Just when she walked to the door, she felt an indescribable itch when she put it on. She wanted to scratch all her skin with her hands and wanted to take off her clothes, but She didn't dare to think of what the butler had told him.
"Look, the countess has a strange face."
"Maybe there is something on that dress she is wearing."
"It must be Tickle powder, just look at her expression."
"I saw what the earl said to his butler just now, and the butler went out. This powdered dress must have been ordered by the earl to wear."
"Hehe... this kind of person deserves it, it shouldn't be his own and he has done so, he should think of the consequences."
"Don’t look at who is behind Miss Dou. Although only her brother, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu, came to the Dou family this time, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu are more effective than others."
"That is, if I were her, I would definitely treat this daughter-in-law well. Even if I had some soup with her at that time, it would make my mother's family follow her and raise her eyebrows."
"That is, if you treat Miss Dou well, and Miss Dou will be filial to her in the future, she will be able to secure the position of this lady."
...
Everyone’s comments were not low, and many of them reached the ears of the countess. She was itchy and uncomfortable all over her body, but when she heard these words, she was so angry that she had an old blood stalk in her throat.
Finally walked to the king, she controlled the discomfort, and first saluted him, "His Majesty the King, hello."
The king looked at the countess, glanced around her face, and responded indifferently.
The countess instantly felt her heart sink to the bottom of the sea.
His Majesty the King’s attitude towards her obviously did not like her performance. She had already thought about how she would be treated coldly by everyone in the future.
Controlling the tears that came out of her eyes, she stood beside the earl with only promise.
Unexpectedly, the earl gave her a cold look, and her heart became even colder.
Why everyone treats her like this, Dou Xiangling has nothing to do, she is the one who has the problem, isn’t it?
She has been punished, can't these people be kinder?
Zi Yi retracted her gaze from the countess’s face, and said to Dou Xiangling, “Cousin, remember, even if some people receive the punishment they deserve, she may be unwilling, so don’t be reluctant.”
Dou Xiangling knew what she was saying and nodded.
The dinner continued. Except for the countess who was standing there, the host and the host enjoyed themselves.
When the dinner was over, the king also invited: "Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, I will prepare a welcome banquet for you tomorrow. Welcome to the palace."
Since the king was kindly invited, Lu Jingye would definitely not refuse.
Unexpectedly, the king specially invited Tang Ze and Dou Zerui: "Mr. Tang, Mr. Dou, you are also welcome to be guests tomorrow."
Although Tang Ze and Dou Zerui were a little surprised, they agreed.
After the king left, other guests also left.
Earl enthusiastically said to Lu Jingye and the others: “Several guests, don’t you live in the earl’s mansion tonight, so that Xiangling can adapt to the place where she will live in the future.”
Lu Jingye didn't have any comments, it all depends on Zi Yi's preferences.
Others also subconsciously looked at Ziyi.
Zi Yi nodded: "It's good to live here."
Earl’s Mansion is a very large duplex building. Several buildings are built together and each has its own courtyard.
Earl will ask the butler to prepare the room for them.
Ian first said: "I have a lot of rooms, and my father doesn't need to send people to clean up the rooms."
After speaking, lead everyone to his yard.
Earl also followed.
As soon as the others left, the Countess, who had been itchy for a long time, fell directly on the ground.
It was the close maid she brought from her natal family to help her up, and asked anxiously: "Madam, how are you?"
The countess was already uncomfortable and speechless at this time, but for the last bit of dignity, she pinched her nails into the flesh, shaking her lips and quickly said: "Send me back, send me back quickly."
"Yes."
After returning, a group of maids helped her change her clothes, but she was still uncomfortable all over, she kept scratching, and soon blood marks appeared on her body.
Several personal maids were frightened and hurriedly cried and begged her: "Madam, don't scratch, you will be scratched."
"I'm uncomfortable, I'm so uncomfortable!"
When the countess said this, a strong murderous intent and imbalance rose in her heart, "Why not let that woman wear this kind of clothes, as long as she can wear it, she is the one who smells tonight. !"
