Chapter 7 (1/2)
Hiding Murderous Intention
Madam Mu looked up, and saw a fatty figure of a middle-aged woman walking into the room, she then bowed to Madam Mu: ”I pay my respects to you, Madam.”
Madam Mu asked curiously: ”Weren't you supposed to deliver something to Madame? Why did you return so early?”
It was Cui Mama, one of Madam Mu's trustworthy and capable servants, she answered: ”Madame was pleased to see what Madam had sent to her, she let me stayed for a night, but then she mentioned that many things were happening in the courtyard, so she sent me back earlier.”
Madam Mu nodded her head: ”Alright, you can return first, wait for me to handle that girl, then you can answer me later.”
Cui Mama rolled her eyes, and said while smiling: ”Patience Madam, it's just a small matter, if Madam was bent out of shape due to this small matter, it wouldn't be worth it.”
Madam Mu thinking about her own meal being stolen was enraged: ”Small matter? Didn't you heard what they said, this young girl dares to bully even me, isn't it that she has a death wis.h.!.+?”
Cui Mama smiled again: ”Madam your status is n.o.ble, why you would want to bother against a small lady? Why don't you have your breakfast then only decide.”
Madam Mu seeing Cui Mama preventing her for countless of times from looking for trouble from Yu Ling Long, she couldn't help but feel curious: Cui Mama is one of her precious servants, why would she hinder me from my actions in front of so many underlings?
Thinking that Cui Mama had just come back from Madame's place, Madam Mu changes her thoughts slightly, could it be that……
Thinking until here, Madam Mu cleared her throat, said: ”Alright then.”
Cui Mama was relieved, she turned back and commanded the servants: ”Hurry up and send Madam's breakfast over!”
Shuang Tao and the others heard Madam Mu's decision, not daring to say anything else, they immediately went and prepare her breakfast.
When nearly everyone had left the room, Cui Mama walked ahead, walking to Madam Mu's side and said: ”Madam, I have something to report.”
Madam Mu seeing Cui Mama's look, she knew that her predictions were on spot, something had really happened at Madame's courtyard, she then said: ”Let me hear it.”
Cui Mama lowered her voice: ”I had a talk with Madame yesterday night, she asked about Sixth Miss' injuries, I answered her that thankfully everything was taken care of nicely, all she needs now is to recuperate, her body should be back in full shape in no time.”
Madam Mu nodded her head when she heard what Cui Mama said, three years ago, Madame Yu had gone up to the mountains to focus on Buddha prayers, praying for Yu Courtyard, she did not take a notice to what had happened in the courtyard during all these years, when she asked about Sixth Miss' injuries, she could tell that her granddaughter was still important to her.
Cui Mama carefully looked at Madam Mu's expression, she said: ”Madame even asked about Fourth Miss……”
Madam Mu couldn't help but frown, how, this Yu Ling Long only came into the courtyard for a few days, how did Madame already knew about this? What about when she forced Yu Ling Long to sacrifice her blood just to cure Sixth Miss' illness, does Madame also knew about this?
Looking at Madam Mu's indefinite expression, Cui Mama quickly said: ”Madame only said one thing: she is Yu Courtyard's flesh and blood after all, I hope you can take care of her.”
Madam Mu smiled coldly, take care of her? With this girl's unbearable and rude att.i.tude, how could she actually take good care of her? Fourth miss was just a one-night debt of her husband in the past, now Madame expects her to clean up his messes? How could Madame even have the audacity to say such a thing!
