It stands to reason that Mr. Zhao is right, but Aunt Hu relies on the favor of the second master. As long as the second master comes back late, she will cause trouble in the backyard. The second master occasionally works late in the shop, and Aunt Hu will also
The fuss continued. The housekeeper had no choice but to send someone to the shop to ask the second master to recover as soon as possible. You know, Aunt Hu didn't even give the lady face when she came, and even embarrassed her.
I wonder if Aunt Hu will cause trouble if the second master has not returned home for two days?
Therefore, Ah Wei told the young master of the Zhao family about what had happened in the mansion before. It seemed that people should be arranged to go to the Luo mansion to keep an eye on the situation to prevent the Aunt Hu from causing trouble.
Ah Wei continued: "If the young master is worried, then I will go back to Luofu. If the madam knows that the second master is working at the tea house, even if Aunt Hu makes trouble, the madam will not let her succeed."
"That's fine, but you have to be careful and don't let them see the clues." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Don't worry, young master, I will be careful," Ah Wei said.
"We'll go back later. You can rest for a while first," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"It's the young master." Ah Wei said.
Ah Wei simply ate something and waited until the moon had just risen before rushing to Luofu.
When the housekeeper opened the door, he saw Awei. He looked behind Awei and saw that Awei was the only one. Then he asked, "Why is it only you, the second master?"
"Is Aunt Hu starting to make trouble again?" Ah Wei asked.
"The backyard has already exploded. If you come back a little later, I will send someone to the shop to urge the second master to go back as soon as possible," the housekeeper said.
"It's a good thing you didn't go there, otherwise the second master would have been furious," Ah Wei said.
"What happened?" asked the steward.
"Something happened in the business, and the second master is handling it at the teahouse. The second master also specially asked me to come back and tell my wife that if Aunt Hu makes trouble, there is no need to be polite to her," Awei said.
"Second Master actually asked his wife to teach Aunt Hu a lesson?" the housekeeper asked.
"Second Master knows that if Aunt Hu makes trouble, Madam will definitely not dare to take care of it. You will also send someone to urge Second Master. This time we are cooperating with Mr. Zhao, and there is no room for any mistakes. Second Master does not want to be disturbed, so he will naturally give this order. If you
If you don't believe it, send someone over to test it out and see if the second master will spare their lives." Awei said.
"Is the business not going well?" the steward asked.
"Hey, the second master is in a hurry to ship the goods, but the Zhao family has been unable to ship. Can the second master not be impatient?" Ah Wei said in a low voice.
"It turns out that's the case. No wonder the second master has been very busy these days. It turns out that it's because of this matter." said the housekeeper.
"Hey, isn't this Awei? You've already come back, where is the second master? Are you refusing to come back in Lichun Courtyard?" Aunt Hu said.
It turned out that Aunt Hu wanted to come out to the housekeeper in person and ask the housekeeper to help her deliver the letter, but she heard Ah Wei talking to the housekeeper. Seeing that the person speaking was Ah Wei, she said something angrily.
"It turns out it's Aunt Hu. The second master is busy with business at the teahouse, so he asked me to come back and report to Madam." Ah Wei said.
"In other words, the second master doesn't want his wife to disturb him, but he didn't tell me not to see him. Then go and send a message to the second master and ask him to come back early, otherwise, he will never enter my yard." Aunt Hu said.
"Aunt Hu, the second master ordered no one to disturb him. I hope Aunt Hu can be considerate," Ah Wei said.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't believe it anymore. If you don't help me pass on the message, I will go out to the teahouse and have a look myself." Aunt Hu said.
It was getting late and Madam had gone to bed early, but someone heard Aunt Hu making trouble and hurried to the main courtyard.
After hearing this, the maid quickly said softly to the madam who had just fallen asleep: "Madam, Aunt Hu is causing trouble in the yard again."
"Let her make trouble, the second master will pamper her," the lady said.
"Madam, Awei came back just now. It seems that he has something to report to you. It seems that the master is very upset because of business matters and does not want anyone to disturb him. But Aunt Hu is unwilling to let you go and plans to go to the tea house in person.
Making trouble. If you don't go out at this time, you won't be able to explain if you offend the second master." The maid said.
"Is that what Ah Wei said?" the lady asked.
"That's what Yun'er said in the yard just now." the maid said.
Madam had no choice but to have someone light a candle, put on some clothes and went to the front yard. Before she saw anyone, she heard Aunt Hu's voice.
The lady shook her head and said, "Sister Hu, why are you making such a fuss in the front yard if you are still not resting at such a late hour?".
"It turns out it's madam. I was not feeling well and asked Awei to invite the second master, but Awei was unwilling. I planned to go and have a look in person, but Awei stopped me again. This Awei is the second master's side.
People are disrespectful to me." Aunt Hu said.
Madam is thinking in her heart, you are just a concubine in the house, why should Ah Wei respect you?
The lady ignored Aunt Hu and said to Awei: "Awei, is there something wrong with you coming here so late?"
"Go back to Madam, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back tonight because of business matters. The Second Master asked me to go to the study to get something, and by the way, he told me to report to Madam that no one is allowed to go to the teahouse to disturb the Second Master. If someone makes trouble, follow the family law
Just deal with it." Ah Wei said.
"Second Master really said that?" the lady asked.
"Yes, Ah Wei went to the study to get something and is about to return. I will leave this place to Madam." Ah Wei said.
After Ah Wei finished speaking, he went to the study. After hearing Ah Wei's words, the wife couldn't help but feel a little worried. The second master always loved Aunt Hu, and no matter how much trouble Aunt Hu made, he would never be angry. What happened in the business?
To make the always-loving Aunt Hu show no mercy?
Seeing that Awei had left, the lady said to Aunt Hu: "Sister, you have heard it, it is best not to disturb the second master. It is getting late, why don't you go back and rest soon."
"Madam, the second master is just talking, you won't take it seriously, right?" Aunt Hu said.
Aunt Hu's words made the madam hesitate. The reason why Aunt Hu is so arrogant is because of the favor of the second master. Based on Awei's few words, if Aunt Hu is used in the family, what should the second master blame her for tomorrow?
good?
However, Awei is the person next to the second master, and there is no need to lie. In the past, Aunt Hu was willful and sent people to invite the second master to come back. She never failed. The second master also said that no one was allowed to disturb her, but Aunt Hu was so
I did it, and the second master didn’t pursue it.
However, Ah Wei's expression was solemn just now, as if something really happened. The second master rarely goes to the tea house unless something big happens.
I almost believed Aunt Hu because of her few words.
So, she said: "You also heard what Awei said. The second master is a little worried during this time. It's better for you to stay calm."
"Sister, don't worry. I won't make trouble with you in the house. I will go and bring the second master back in person." Aunt Hu said.
Just as Aunt Hu was about to leave, Madam said, "Stop, don't you want to be whipped?"
"Madam, if you hit me, how will you explain it to the second master?" Aunt Hu said provocatively.
"Come here, drag Aunt Hu to the ancestral hall and serve her like a family." Madam said coldly.
"Madam, are you not afraid that the second master will come back to settle the score with you?" Aunt Hu said.
"If the second master is to blame, just ask him to fight back. I want to see how long you can continue to be arrogant? Someone, take him away," the lady said.
The servants heard the noise and drove Aunt Hu to the ancestral hall.
"Madam, please remember this. If the second master knew about it, he would definitely not spare you." Aunt Hu struggled to say.
Madam ignored Aunt Hu, went back to the house, quickly tidied her clothes, and then entered the ancestral hall. After hearing the commotion, each room did not dare to act rashly, so they sent people to inquire about the news.
Aunt Hu was just an aunt and was not qualified to enter the ancestral hall. Therefore, a stool was set up outside and Aunt Hu was pressed on it.
I just heard the lady say: "Aunt Hu has violated the family rules. I will teach her a lesson today and give her thirty lashes."
Servant, look at me, I'll look at you,
I don’t know what to do. This is the second master’s favorite aunt. If this whip is continued, will the second master settle the score with them?
"What's wrong? You don't even listen to what I say?" the lady said harshly.
"Madam, you'd better calm down, Aunt Hu can't be beaten. If she is beaten, we won't be able to explain to the second master," the servant said.
"Yan'er, go and fight." The lady said.
"Yes." Yan'er said.
Yan'er, the girl next to the madam, snatched the whip from the servant's hand and hit Aunt Hu on the body with a slap.
Just listen to Aunt Hu yelling and scolding: "You little hooves, if you dare to attack me, I will make you die badly when the second master comes back tomorrow. Madam, you should treat me like this today, and I will definitely repay you twice as much in the future."
Madam didn't say anything. After Yan'er finished beating her, Aunt Hu's body was already bruised and bruised. Yan'er was sweating from the beating, and panting said to Madam, "Madam, the thirty lashes have been completed."
"Come here, help my aunt go back and apply the medicine. No one is allowed to leave the house to disturb the second master. If I find out, I will kill you immediately." The lady said coldly.
"Yes." said the servant.
The servants were so frightened that they didn't know why Madam suddenly showed her power towards Aunt Hu. You must know that Aunt Hu did not provoke Madam once or twice. Because of the Second Master, Madam never dared to be angry with Aunt Hu.
Today's actions really frightened the servants. I wonder if the second master will be furious when he comes back tomorrow.
Ah Wei didn't dare to stay in the study for too long. He didn't find anything useful in the study. When he heard some movement outside, he just picked up a book and left Luo Mansion in a hurry.
That night the Luo Mansion was very lively, and the people sent by the aunts of each room had returned to their respective courtyards.
"Auntie, I don't know what Auntie Hu said, which made the lady furious. She sent someone to send Auntie Hu outside the ancestral hall and gave her thirty lashes," the servant said.
"Are you telling the truth?" Aunt Liu asked with renewed energy.
"Of course it's true. I heard that other servants didn't dare to take action, but it was Yan'er who was beside Madam who did it herself." The maid said.
"Why is Madam so abnormal? Isn't she worried that the Second Master will come back and cause trouble for her?" Aunt Liu asked worriedly.
"I heard that I got the second master's order. Otherwise, how could the madam dare to take action? Although she was only beaten thirty times, her skin was torn apart." The maid said.
"She deserves it, let's see how arrogant she will be in the future." Aunt Liu said.
As soon as the whipping was finished, Aunt Hu fainted. She had never experienced such injustice. She finally woke up and was still thinking about waiting for the second master to come back to support her. She also did not expect that the second master was being imprisoned in Yixiang Pavilion at this moment.
