This is the courtyard where the Ning family lives.
There was a lot of noise in the courtyard, with sounds of crying and scolding mixed together.
Look in the direction of the sound.
I saw a little boy about three years old, crying loudly. His forehead was broken, and blood was flowing down his cheek. His body was covered with dust, and his hands had scratches. It looked like he had fallen.
He fell, and he fell hard.
Next to the boy was a woman with an angry look on her face, angrily scolding the maids and mothers nearby.
"How do you look after the young master? Everyone just idles around on weekdays, but you dare to be so perfunctory when looking after the young master. What's the use of waiting for you?!"
"Madam, please forgive me, how can I dare to slack off? The young master ran too fast..."
The maids and nuns who were kneeling on the ground all looked frightened.
The woman Wang was so angry that she kicked a maid to the ground and said, "How dare you shirk your responsibility!"
In the midst of anger.
Ning, who heard the commotion in the outer courtyard, walked out of the inner courtyard. When she saw the situation in the courtyard, she was slightly shocked at first, and then she stepped forward and asked, "Sister, what is going on? Why did the young master fall like this?"
Wang married into the Xuanguo Mansion a few years earlier than she did, and her husband Chen Xing was several years older than Chen Mu's brother, but they were both of the same generation and one of the concubines of the Xuanguo Mansion.
Generally, after a concubine loses his title, he will be separated from the Xuanguo Mansion, but Chen Xing is outstanding in martial arts, and now he has a hundred households in the Kyoto camp and an official of the sixth rank, so he can stay in the Xuanguo Mansion.
Ning stepped forward to ask, but Wang gave her a fierce look.
"How do you discipline your servants? When my son came to play in your courtyard, your servants didn't even look at me and let my son fall and get hurt!"
"That's right, you evil star defeated a man to death and couldn't give birth to a child, so you were jealous and deliberately lured my son to play in your courtyard to harm my son, right?! You are so vicious and hateful!
"
A curse was thrown down on her head and face, immediately making Ning stunned.
After reacting, tears welled up in Ning's eyes. She covered her heart and said with a trembling voice, "Why did my sister say that to me? How have I ever done such a thing?"
"If you haven't done it, then you have thought about it? You vicious woman, if it weren't for the kindness of the old lady, you should have gotten out of Xuanguo Mansion. There is no place for you to stay here."
A fierce look flashed in Wang's eyes. As she spoke, she stepped forward and gave Ning a hard shove.
This push immediately made Ningshi scream in surprise, staggering, and when she was about to fall, the maid behind her hurriedly stepped forward to give her a hand, which prevented Ning from falling.
When Mrs. Wang saw this, she turned around and saw her son who was still crying and the wound on his forehead that was bleeding continuously. For a moment, he became even more furious and said, "Come here, catch this evil woman. She must be taught a lesson today."
You can’t teach a lesson.”
rear.
The maids and mothers who were kneeling on the ground and trembling suddenly looked at Ning, with a little fierce light in their eyes, and they were secretly glad in their hearts.
If Ning's sudden appearance hadn't diverted Wang's anger, I'm afraid this anger would have been unleashed on them.
With Wang's order, all the maids and nuns slowly stood up.
If it were the other masters of the Xuanguo Mansion, even if they received Wang's order, they might not dare to act recklessly. However, Ning lost her husband early in life and had no heirs. The only person she was close to was her brother-in-law Chen Mu, who was neither civilized nor martial.
He was so invisible to everyone that almost none of the maids and maids were afraid of Ning.
There were also two maids and two nannies in the Ning family's courtyard, but their number was much smaller than those brought by Wang family. At this time, they were all trembling in fear of Wang family's power.
But at this moment.
A cold voice came from outside the hospital.
"Who are you going to take?"
Everyone looked back.
I saw a figure appearing outside the courtyard and walking in step by step. He was wearing a brocade robe and a fox fur cloak, and his face was cold. It was Chen Mu!
That cold sound seemed to make the temperature of the entire courtyard suddenly drop a few degrees, and also frightened many maids and grandmothers, causing them to stop walking.
Chen Mu didn't look at the maids either.
He walked straight through the outer courtyard and came to Ning's side. A faint light flashed in his eyes. He turned on his spiritual vision and looked carefully up and down. He saw that there was no congestion of Qi and blood, and said:
"How is your sister-in-law doing? Are there any injuries?"
"No, no."
When Ning saw Chen Mu, she felt a little more at ease and shook her head.
Chen Mu nodded, looked at the maid next to him, and said coldly: "Who can tell me what happened here?"
In the depressing atmosphere, the maid secretly glanced at Mrs. Ning, then at the cold-faced Mrs. Wang on the other side, and hesitated for a moment.
At this time.
Ning quietly pulled Chen Mu's sleeve and whispered: "It's nothing. My sister's young master accidentally fell and got hurt. He was too angry for a while and started making trouble."
As she spoke, she looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "My young master fell and was injured in our courtyard. I apologize to my sister, but I really have no intention of harming anyone."
Although he felt sad for being humiliated for a moment, Chen Xing was a truly powerful figure in the Kyoto camp after all, and Wang was Chen Xing's head wife. If the trouble continued and Chen Mu was involved, it would be a disaster.
It doesn't matter if she just feels a little wronged.
"snort."
When Mrs. Wang heard what Mr. Ning said, she snorted coldly.
The appearance of Chen Mu also made her anger subside. Although she was also the master, Chen Mu was the upright son of the Xuanguo Mansion after all. It was okay to send his servants to capture the Ning family, but if they wanted to attack Chen Mu, these maids and mammies
Most likely I still wouldn't dare.
There is no benefit in continuing to fidget.
"Then let's be like this. My sister should be more careful when walking in the future, so as not to fall."
Wang responded coldly, and then planned to leave.
But this time.
Chen Mu smiled softly.
Although he had only seen half of it before, but listening to the conversation between Ning and Wang, as well as the reactions of the maids nearby, he already knew roughly what happened.
Chen Mu first looked at the three-year-old boy who was still crying, took a few steps forward, and said casually to a nanny: "It's still bleeding, why don't you take it to be bandaged quickly?"
"yes."
The grandma responded subconsciously. She wanted to go see Mrs. Wang, but she felt an inexplicable coldness all over her body and shivered involuntarily. She couldn't think of any other action in her mind, so she stepped forward and pulled her.
The crying boy walked out of the yard.
Then Chen Mu turned his head and smiled slightly.
Many maids and mothers were still stunned, but Ning had a vague premonition of something, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "...No!"
But her words just fell.
Snapped!
A loud and crisp sound echoed in the courtyard.
This slap directly caused stars to appear in Wang's eyes. Her whole body was spinning for a moment, and she couldn't even say "Ouch". She spun around in a circle and fell to the ground.
There was dead silence in the whole place.
The maids and grandmothers next to her were so frightened that they didn't even have time to step forward to help her, and watched as Wang's whole body fell heavily to the ground.
Chen Mu was seen standing there, looking at Wang on the ground. The smile on his face had faded and disappeared at some point, and he said lightly:
"The slaves commit crimes, are arrogant and unreasonable, and speak viciously...I don't care what you show your son and what you teach him. But don't think that my sister-in-law is easy to bully because she is kind."
In silence.
Wang fell to the ground and slowly regained consciousness. She covered her face blankly, but then she felt that her entire face was completely swollen, and it stung like needles when touched.
"Ahhhh..."
It was only then that Wang finally let out a scream and pain, struggled to hold up her body, and her anger almost burned her brain. She stared at Chen Mu: "You actually, how dare you..."
She is Chen Xing’s legal wife!
Chen Xing is one of the 100 households in the Kyoto camp after Duke Xuan!
Among her peers in Xuanguo Mansion, except for a few beloved concubines and a few legitimate sons and daughters, no one dared to insult her easily, let alone attack her!
"What are you still doing? Come here quickly! Xiaoyue, hold him!"
Wang covered half of her swollen face, showing a ferocious expression, and roared angrily at the servants beside her who were still in a daze.
