Madam Lu stared at Fu Zhi in disbelief as she shook her head. "Madness! This is madness!"
In her opinion, no one would say something as heinous as that.
Xu Wei's face turned pale as well. She went forward and attempted to close her daughter's mouth, but she was too late.
Right now, she did not know if she should sympathize with Madam Lu or her daughter. The former's days were numbered, while the latter had to kneel in the ancestral hall.
"Mom, this is just a misunderstanding," Xu Wei said, her eyes turning red around the rims.
As for what kind of misunderstanding it was, well, it was time for some brainstorming.
"Misunderstanding? There's no misunderstanding. She just wants me dead! Take her away! What are you still waiting for, Mama Liu? Hurry up and take her to the ancestral hall!"
Madam Lu felt that even if she had not already been ill, she would certainly have gotten ill after spending time with Fu Zhi and Xu Wei.
