“Auntie.” Song Fengwan wasn’t familiar with her, so she could only call her this.

Sheng Aiyi smiled at her and reached out to adjust her shawl. “When I was at the door just now, I heard you ask the Qiao family to give you an explanation. Not only is this matter related to the Qiao family, but it also involves my father-in-law. Why didn’t you go to our family to ask for an explanation?

“According to what you said, it was my father-in-law who forcefully snatched Old Master Qiao’s wife. He’s the culprit and the person who should be condemned.

“The Qiao family has already suffered so much. Why won’t you let them go?

“Do you want to dig up people’s privacy that much? Are you that voyeuristic?”

Sheng Aiyi’s tone carried a certain cadence as she enunciated each word clearly. Ding Jingyi felt flustered.

Everyone knew that, according to the article, the Jing family was the culprit, but they didn’t dare to find fault with them.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? Weren’t you shouting loudly just now?” Sheng Aiyi smiled faintly, elegant and composed.

“You didn’t dare to go to our family but went to the Qiao family.

“This is considered bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

“With your character, how dare you question the Qiao family? I’ve finally seen today what a true thick-skinned hooligan is.”

Facing Sheng Aiyi, Ding Jingyi didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.

“Don’t you want clarification? I’ll give you a chance today. You ask, and I’ll answer.”

The reporters looked at each other.

Who would dare to ask her?

Ding Jingyi opened her mouth, but she didn’t dare to make a sound.

“Since no one has said anything, then I’ll tell you what happened.”

Sheng Aiyi had obviously come today for the Qiao family.

She specially came to clarify this matter.

Actually, all the people involved in this matter had already passed away, so there was no way to ask further. The Qiao family couldn’t explain either. This was why Fu Chen thought of destroying Ding Jingyi first and letting the rumors collapse on their own.

As long as the Jing family appeared and they spoke…

No one would dare to object anymore.

“Actually, Old Master Qiao and my father-in-law had a close friendship. My father-in-law once saved Old Madam Qiao, and they lived in the same mansion, but he treated her with courtesy and never overstepped his boundaries.

“It’s even more nonsense to say that Old Master Qiao asked someone to pull strings to save Old Madam Qiao. Back then, because he had a deep relationship with my father-in-law, he even stayed at the Jing residence for half a month.

“When Old Master and Old Madam Qiao left, the flames of war were raging. He went south to avoid the war, and my father-in-law sent people to escort him away. I’m afraid people nowadays can’t understand the hardships back then.

“With the bandits during the war, they even escaped death a few times.”

“When the peaceful era came, Old Master Qiao was grateful, and he wanted to visit a few times, but my father-in-law rejected him. He just felt that his family background wasn’t worthy, and he was afraid of tarnishing Old Master Qiao’s reputation.

Sheng Aiyi took a deep breath. “The political environment at the time was like that. Everyone should know a thing or two.”

The Jing family was definitely the target of a severe crackdown. Anyone related to them would be dragged out to be questioned without exception.

“The two elders had always exchanged letters. Although my father-in-law passed away, we’ve always kept the letters. The two of them had a gentleman’s friendship. Old Master Qiao was touched, so he gave his disciples names containing the words chuan, bei, jing, or homonyms of these words.

“I really don’t understand how you could use this to make up such a despicable story.

“Could it be that something has to happen when a man and a woman are together? Only then can it satisfy some people’s curiosity? My father-in-law only had one wife in his entire life, and there was no such thing as eighteen concubines. Otherwise, the Jing family should have many descendants, and we wouldn’t have so few people!”

There were too many rumors about the Jing family. No one knew much about them, so they were even more curious. In the end, they fabricated a lot of nonsense.

Sheng Aiyi recounted the incident easily, as if she was talking about a touching past.

Just this voice alone made people’s bones go weak.

“I’ve said it today, so this matter is over. I gave you a chance, but you didn’t ask. If anyone talks about this in the future, it will be a slap to my face.”

Unexpectedly, she changed the topic and spoke lightly.

The meaning was very clear.

In the future, anyone who mentioned this matter would become enemies with the Jing family. The Jing family took responsibility for the entire matter. It had to be said that they were very imposing.

Sheng Aiyi smiled at Ding Jingyi. “Miss, do you have any other questions?”

Ding Jingyi bit her lip. “No.”

“It’s easy to invite evil if you talk too much. If it’s serious, you’ll lose your life. I think you’re only twenty-three or twenty-four years old. You still have a long way to go. Don’t ruin your life.” Sheng Aiyi smiled and reached out to help her straighten her wrinkled clothes.
