Chapter 155: The Importance of Speech Skills
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lu Mian looked at Liu Shimei expressionlessly and asked, “Miss Liu, you’re the victim. What do you think?”
...“It doesn’t matter if it’s Madam or Sister,” Liu Shimei said lightly. “It’s a fact that my Leihua Courtyard was robbed. It’s all done by my own family. But…”
She paused and glanced at Madam Zhang, who glared at her.
She sighed and said, “No matter how badly others treat me, we’re still family. Madam is not my biological mother, and Yan’er is not my sister from the same mother, but our relationships are all related to Father.”
As she spoke, she looked at Liu Fuyun.
Although Liu Fuyun did not look too good, his expression was still relatively calm. He also glanced at Liu Shimei and did not say anything.
The Grand Chancellor still had to maintain his face and put on airs!
Liu Shimei then continued, “When I originally complained about this, 1 didn’t know that it was actually Madam Zhang who did it because she held a grudge against me. It was my fault for bringing the family matter to the Supreme Court and making it known to everyone.”
Her speech was shocking!
The onlookers who did not know the truth, after being led by the people who had mixed in, decisively agreed: Eldest Miss Liu was educated and reasonable. She was indeed beautiful and kind!
However, in the eyes of the people in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence, Liu Shimei’s eloquence in twisting right and wrong was very powerful!
She had fallen out with the Grand Chancellor, so how could it be as good as she said?
Before Liu Shimei could finish, she said, “I was just being willful. If I had known that it was Madam Zhang who did it, I would have begged Father to make a decision about the matter and be done with it. Even if 1 had to kneel and beg for three days and three nights, I would not have gone to the extent of suing the Supreme Court. I apologize to Father for this matter. It was Daughter who embarrassed you!”
She turned around and bowed to Liu Fuyun.
She did not intend to seek Liu Fuyun’s forgiveness, so she continued, “Although those things were left behind by my mother after she passed away and were dowry given to her by my maternal grandfather’s family, Madam is my stepmother. In the past, these dowry were also in Madam’s hands.”
There was only her indifferent tone in the court. “Over the years, Madam must have known these dowries like the back of her hand. She must have needed something recently, so she naturally sent someone to get it. We’re family, so there was nothing wrong with taking things from our own family.”
She turned to face Madam Zhang and said, “I’m making a mountain out of a molehill, and I’m narrow-minded. Mother’s dowry has been used up for many years, and now there’s only 60 to 70 percent left. It’s not like there is much of a difference if you take some of it. But I was stingy and I didn’t allow Madam to take it away. 1 apologize to Madam here!”
With that, she bowed to Madam Zhang.
She was extremely polite and placed herself in the lowest position, but in fact…
However, she pushed Madam Zhang to the height of being condemned by everyone!
She made full use of the art of language and guidance skills.
Every word was a reflection on how she should not have done it and that it was her fault. However, some of the casual words were telling everyone the facts!
For example: ‘Madam Ruyi’s dowry was previously under Madam Zhang’s control’, ‘Madam Zhang used quite a lot of her belongings and only 60 to 70 percent of it was left’, ‘Madam Zhang was still not satisfied after using the belongings of the previous wife. After the dowry was transferred to Liu Shimei, Madam Zhang still wanted to steal it!’
In the eyes of the onlookers, such information was really unforgivable!
“Eldest Miss Liu has already been bullied to this extent. Why do you still have to apologize to the Grand Chancellor and Madam?”
“In that case, 1 dare to conclude that the incident that happened on the night of the Lantern Festival was caused by Madam Zhang!”
And so on and so forth.
Liu Fuyun’s face was extremely gloomy.. Madam Zhang even cursed angrily, “Liu Shimei, try spouting nonsense again!”
