Facing Aunt Qin's insults, Changxing was not annoyed, bowed respectfully, and said slowly: "Don't be angry, Auntie.
Grandma is already several decades old. She can't get angry, and it will hurt her health. It's better to take it easy.
As I said, I have already sent someone to report it, and our master will be here soon.
We are all servants, so grandma should be able to understand the little ones' difficulties. It's not easy for everyone, so why should grandma bother the little ones?"
Xu Lei, who was just across the door, said to Qiao: "Look, Changxing's mouth is really worthy of someone who has stayed in the imperial censor's house. He talks in the same way."
Qiao Yi nodded in admiration.
Changxing said in front of Madam Xiao Zhao that being a servant is not easy. Doesn't this mean that she is unkind and treats her servants harshly?
Mrs. Xiao Zhao became angry and raised her voice: "Hit me hard, beat this blind thing to death, and then break the door open for me."
The servants received the order and swarmed over.
Xu Lei rushed out from the side door with a broom in hand, guarded Chang Xing behind him, raised the broom in his hand and said: "Come if you are not afraid of death."
Xu Lei was tall and powerful. When the servants who came forward saw him, they all stepped back.
Seeing her people retreating one after another, Mrs. Zhao scolded angrily: "A bunch of losers, a bunch of people are afraid of him."
After being reminded by Mrs. Xiao Zhao, the servants rushed forward.
Qiao Yi came out with a broom, pushed Changxing into the yard, and warned: "Close the door."
Changxing shouted through the door: "Brother Qiao Yi, even a young one can fight."
Qiao Yi said: "Brother Lei and I are here, I don't need you, just take a rest."
When Ning Yu came over with Chang Le, Qiao Yi and Xu Lei had already knocked down all the servants.
Ning Yu sighed inwardly, not blaming Xu Lei and Qiao Yi.
Look at the wailing servants lying on the ground, and Qiao Yi and Xu Lei guarding the gate with brooms, like door gods.
When Mrs. Zhao saw Ning Yu coming out, she was about to curse.
Ning Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and asked first, "What are you doing, madam?"
Mrs. Zhao was furious, pointed at the servant on the ground and asked: "Brother Yu, do you still have the nerve to ask me what I am doing?
The unscrupulous slave you raise dares to beat my own people, is this your filial piety?"
Now that the matter has come to an end and his skin is torn, Ning Yu no longer cares about anything, sneers and asks: "What else?
Madam Ren brings people to your door to bully her, but she doesn’t retaliate when she is scolded or beaten? Is Madam not awake? She is daydreaming in the clear sky!"
Mrs. Zhao put one hand on her hips and pointed at Ning Yu with the other, cursing: "You disrespectful bastard, I'm going to go to the Yamen to sue you for being unfilial."
Ning Yu raised his hand and waved, saying: "Go, if you want to sue quickly, turn around and walk straight, then turn right out of the gate of Ning's Mansion. Madam, it's best to keep what you say, and don't make people look down on you if it's all thunder and no rain."
When the official comes, I can also ask the official what does it mean to be kind to a father and have a filial son? I also want to ask the official whether parents who poison their children or those who seek to murder their children should be put in jail?"
After hearing what Ning Yu said, Mrs. Zhao thought that Ning Yu had something to do with her. Her face instantly turned pale and she said with a guilty conscience: "What are you talking about?"
Ning Yu snorted coldly: "What did I say? Madam has no idea?
If grandma hadn't blocked it, do you think you would have had the chance to stand here and act arrogant today?
If you want to sue the official, please hurry up."
Ning Yu saw that Mrs. Zhao was trembling violently, so he simply took a stronger dose, and then said: "By the way, people from Dali Temple came to the house yesterday to ask questions.
Madam, do you want to know what the official of Dali Temple asked?
Shuangyang in Lingnan was the prisoner of a murder case. The court had been pursuing these two people for many years.
Guess, madam, if the government finds out the person who colluded with Lingnan Shuangyang, how will the government punish him?"
Xiao Zhao stared at Ning Yu in disbelief. How did he know about Lingnan Shuangyang?
Mrs. Zhao not only trembled, she felt weak in her limbs and her mind went blank.
Seeing that the purpose of deterrence was achieved, Ning Yu said: "Take your people and get out. If anyone dares to come to Liuyuan again to cause trouble, come and beat one, two and a pair. If you are not afraid of death, just come."
After saying that, Ning Yu turned around and walked into the courtyard, ignoring Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao was trembling all over, so Grandma Qin asked the two women to carry her back to Lingyun Garden.
Ning He had lunch at Fengle Building and took Yang Xinye for a walk before returning home.
Arriving at the door of the house, Ning He asked, "Has eldest sister returned to the house?"
The concierge said: "Go back to the second lady, the eldest lady has not returned home yet."
When Ning He learned that Ning Wei had not returned home, he said to Chuni, "Let's go to Jing'an Hall first."
When Ning He arrived at Jing'an Hall, Mrs. Qian had just woken up and was talking to Yue Niang.
Mrs. Qian received the notice that the second lady was here to pay her respects. She immediately said: "Please come in."
After Ning He entered the house to greet Mrs. Qian, he asked first, "Grandma, is eldest sister back?"
Seeing Ning He's worried look, Mrs. Qian's heart began to lift, "Sister Wei hasn't returned home yet, didn't you two go out together? Why didn't you come back together?"
"Eldest sister hasn't come back yet?" Ning He stood up from the chair with a bang, muttering to himself, and started walking around the room with a worried look on his face.
"No, eldest sister obviously left at the first quarter of the year, why haven't you returned home yet?"
Mrs. Qian was so frightened by the restless Ning He that she sat upright, which caused the wound to be pulled. The pain made Mrs. Qian's face turn pale, and she couldn't help but groaned: "Oh!"
Yue Niang was so frightened that she quickly bent down to support Mrs. Qian, "Old Madam, what's wrong?"
Mrs. Qian endured it and waved her hand towards Yue Niang, "I'm fine. Sit down and slowly tell grandma what happened at the banquet today? Why did Sister Wei leave early?"
Mrs. Qian replied to Yue Niang and raised her hand to greet Ning He.
Yue Niang didn't like the startled second lady very much, so she said with a straight face: "Second lady, sit down first and explain the matter clearly."
Madam Qian pointed to the chair next to the bed, "Sister He, sit here and tell grandma what's going on?"
Ning He sat down on the bed obediently and told the story of the banquet in an embellished manner.
Finally, he said worriedly: "Grandma, do you think my eldest sister won't be confused or have any accidents?"
Yue Niang said solemnly: "Second Miss, be careful what you say!
Madam, please relax, the eldest lady has always been calm and measured in doing things, so she probably won't do stupid things.
Besides, there is a husband following you. If something happens to the eldest lady, he should come back and report it early."
Mrs. Qian has lived for decades and has seen a lot of things. Just now she was concerned and confused.
Now I calm down and my sense comes back.
"Yue Niang is right. If something happened to Sister Wei, Mr. Hu would have come back to report it a long time ago. Maybe something delayed her."
Ning He's mouth went dry when she saw that her grandmother didn't believe it at all, but she believed in Ning Wei. The hatred in her heart was really...
"Grandma, the eldest sister has offended the eldest daughter of the Chengguo Palace. Will the Duke's Palace make things difficult for us in the future?"
When the plan failed, Ning He continued to provoke.
Seeing Ning He continue to stir up trouble, Yue Niang sighed secretly in her heart. There was a troublemaker in the family, so it would be difficult to have peace.
Mrs. Qian said calmly: "Sister He is worrying too much. It's just a quarrel between children, and the Duke's government won't care about it.
You are also tired today, go back and rest early."
Mrs. Qian didn't want to continue talking to Ning He and directly ordered her to be kicked out.
Ning He had no choice but to stand up and leave angrily.
Mrs. Qian said she wasn't worried, but she was worried about it in her heart. After a quarter of an hour, she asked Dong Hui to see if Ning Wei was back.
Ning Wei traveled to several places and it was already dusk when he returned to his house.
Xu Yan drove the car to the second door. As soon as Ning Weigang got out of the car, Donghui breathed a sigh of relief and came over and said, "Miss, you are finally back."
Ning Wei saw Donghui's expression and asked, "Sister Donghui, have you been waiting for a long time?"
Donghui said truthfully: "The old lady asks this slave to come here every quarter of an hour to take a look."
Ning Wei narrowed her eyes slightly and asked, "Did the second young lady go to see my grandmother? When did she return home?"
Donghui nodded, "Yes, the second lady returned home before the second day of the new year. After returning home, she went straight to Jing'an Hall and told the old lady what happened at the banquet."
Ning Wei understood in her heart, "Let's go and see grandma first."
Mrs. Qian felt relieved when she saw Ning Wei. She was not in a hurry to ask her about the banquet, but asked: "Sister Wei, haven't you eaten yet?"
Ning Wei shook her head, "No."
Mrs. Qian ordered: "Put the food on the table."
After dinner, Mrs. Qian asked about the banquet, and Ning Wei told Mrs. Qian truthfully.
Mrs. Qian didn't comment, she just said: "I've been out shopping all day. You must be tired. Go back and rest early."
Ning Wei was indeed tired, so she said goodbye and took Hu Rui back to Fangfei Garden.
After Ning Wei left, Mrs. Qian sighed and said, "She is really careless. Even a small banquet can cause trouble for her.
She is really stupid and doesn't realize it. She thought she would benefit from stepping on Sister Wei.
As everyone knows, it will only make people look down on her even more."
Yueniang said with relief: "Old Madam, you should be happy. The eldest lady can advance and retreat in such an occasion and handle it with ease. Our eldest lady has really grown up."
Mrs. Qian nodded happily, "Yes, the other party is the eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion. Sister Wei is not afraid of anything and has already gained a lot of respect for me."
When Ning Wei returned to Fangfei Garden, Zaohua and Sangye excitedly told her about how Mrs. Zhao brought people to Liuyuan to cause trouble, but Ning Yu took care of them.
"Miss, Chang Le said, after listening to the second master's words, the wife was so frightened that she trembled all over. In the end, she didn't even have the strength to walk. It was Grandma Qin who asked the two mothers-in-law to carry the wife back.
At the end of the day, Nanny Qin invited a doctor to come over to see Madam, and it seemed that Madam was frightened and fell ill."
Hu Rui said with some regret: "It seems that we missed a big show."
"No, I missed it while I was in the house." Zaohua said with great regret.
Hu Rui looked at Ning Wei and said, "Mr. Zhao is ill. Now, we can take it easy."
Ning Wei thought for a while and shook her head slightly, "I don't think so. Zhao has been in the business field for many years and is by no means the kind of person who gives up easily.
She was confused at the time, and when she came to her senses, she would cause trouble again.
Also, Zhao is not the only one who is causing trouble in the mansion.
When we stay in this house for one day, we have to deal with it carefully."
Hu Rui nodded and said: "That's right, be careful with the Wannian Ship. There is nothing wrong with being more cautious.
You two need to be more vigilant and not take it lightly, do you understand?"
Zaohua and Sangye nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, young lady, I understand."
Ning Wei said: "Go and pick up Dabai tomorrow."
Zaohua happily responded: "Okay!"
Sang Ye said with some worry: "But, madam..."
Hu Rui asked in confusion: "Isn't Dabai given by the prince to the second master? What does it have to do with Madam?"
Zaohua said: "It's a long story. At first, the second master brought Dabai back to raise Dabai in Liuyuan, but the uncle made a fuss about Dabai and refused to let the second master raise Dabai in the front yard.
The second master gave Dabai to the young lady and asked the young lady to take it back to Fangfei Yard to raise him.
As a result, the wife said that the girl's family should spend their time on beauties, running the house, and raising cats and dogs, which is not doing their job properly.
Finally, Dabai was put at the back door and looked after by the gatekeeper."
Sang Ye asked: "Miss, let's take Dabai over. Will Madam come to look for trouble?"
Ning Wei leaned on the chair, glanced at the mulberry leaves, and said slowly: "We didn't raise Dabai before, so she has less trouble?"
Hu Rui nodded in agreement, "That's right! Just do whatever you want to do, don't be timid.
The more timid you are, the more she will take advantage of you and bully you.
Bad people are spoiled. If you don't spoil her, she won't dare to be arrogant and domineering towards you."
Zaohua looked at Hu Rui with stars in her eyes, nodded repeatedly and said: "Sir, you are absolutely right.
That's the kind of person Madam is.
Before, the young lady and the second master had always given in to her, but she was bullying the young lady and the second master even more.
Now that the second master doesn't agree with her, she is confused.
Miss, if your wife comes to find trouble with you, she will fight back just like the second master did.
We at Fangfeiyuan are also proud and proud."
Hu Rui looked at Ning Wei and said to Zaohua: "When the young lady decided to bring Dabai back, didn't she just decide to live according to her own ideas?"
Zaohua couldn't hide her excitement and said, "My slave, go and clean out Dabai's nest now."
Sang Ye said, "I'll go too, my slave."
Ning Wei smiled and said: "It's late at night, what are you going to pack? Go to bed and go to bed. If anything happens, we'll talk about it tomorrow morning. It's not a hurry."
Ning Wei was really tired after walking around for a day.
Zaohua hurriedly said: "I'll go fetch water and help the lady wash up."
Ning Wei said to Hu Rui: "Sir, please go and have a rest too."
Hu Rui nodded in agreement, "Okay. Good night, miss. I'll take my leave."
Ning Wei leaned on the chair and waved lazily, "Go. Good night."
After Hu Rui left, Ning Wei remained in a reclining posture, looking in the direction without focusing on any object, thinking about everything during the day.
"Miss!"
Ning Wei was wandering in her thoughts and was called back to consciousness by Hu Rui.
Ning Wei turned to look at Hu Rui and asked in surprise: "Why are you back? Is there anything else?"
Hu Rui gave Ning Wei a meaningful look, turned his head and looked outside. He said softly: "The prince is here and wants to see the lady."
Ning Wei looked at Hu Rui in surprise and blurted out, "Why is he here?"
