Chapter 53

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

When Mu s.h.i.+ heard the report from Mama Cui, her brow furrowed: “What are you talking about? She wants the contracts?”

This girl was really poking a snake with a stick . She “kindly” ordered her girl, and she still wants the contracts? She was really unforgiving!

After gritting her teeth, Mu s.h.i.+ coldly snorted: “Give them to her!”

So what if she gave her the contracts? Those maids were born in the house, and she can only give her their contracts, but the contracts of the mothers are still in their hands!

Wasn’t it just a few contracts? As long as she could watch Yu Linglong, what was this thing?

As soon as Mama Cui took out the contracts, Mama Qian walked in .

“Madam, the one in the backyard hasn’t rested for several days!”

The one in the backyard was concubine Mei, who was brought back by General Yu from northern Xinjiang . Since that day when she served Mu s.h.i.+ tea and was snubbed by her, concubine Mei seemed to know that she was not welcome in Yu’s house, so she discreetly and seldomly appeared in front of Mu s.h.i.+ . Recently, Mu s.h.i.+ was struggling with the matter of Lord Xu and Yu Linglong, and she couldn’t care for this concubine Mei for a while .

Mu s.h.i.+ had just pulled out the contracts for nothing . She was in a bad mood . After hearing those words, she asked angrily: “Her? How much trouble can a low-status woman make?”

Mama Qian said: “Madam, the master has been staying with concubine Mei these few days . It is inconvenient to go from the inner yard to the backyard every day . I heard that…”

Mama Qian looked around, and deliberately lowered her voice: “…The women didn’t know what kind of charm she used . It was at night, so that the slaves next door heard it clearly, the activity, tsk—“

Mu s.h.i.+ was experienced, so how could she not understand what Mama Qian was talking about . She was furious after hearing this: “That shameless little s.l.u.t!”

Mama Qian also looked contemptuously: “Exactly! She’s a girl from an honorable household, how can she make such a mess!”

Mu s.h.i.+ thought for a while and couldn’t help but sneer: “She called me to listen to it! Who asked me to arrange the backyard for her? There are people around, so it’s hard not to be heard!”

Everyone was a woman, and concubine Mei was so careful, but how could she hide from Mu s.h.i.+ . Concubine Mei was just thinking that her yard was not good, and she wanted to live in the inner courtyard of the Yu Mansion and become the decent leader of the Yu Mansion .

She originally thought that if the woman was not admitted into the mansion, the master would not go too close to her . Who knew that General Yu would rather make trouble and even go to concubine Mei’s yard every night .

Mama Qian said: “The master has been visiting the backyard every day for the past few days . It is too troublesome . The servants and maidservants say that since there is no free yard, we need to build another one for concubine Mei . ”

Mu s.h.i.+ gritted her teeth with anger: “Build a new yard? He is really obsessed with that fox!”

How much money does it cost to build a new yard? General Yu carelessly never knew how to manage the household; he only knew that he wanted to use money and he reached out to Mu s.h.i.+ to build a yard for concubine Mei . Did he really want to bleed Mu s.h.i.+ dry again!?

Mu s.h.i.+ thought for a moment and said, “Where’s concubine Dong, the master hasn’t been to her in the past few days after coming back?”

It stands to reason that concubine Dong was young, and he hadn’t seen her for three years . Why did General Yu only spoil the concubine Mei when he came back, leaving concubine Dong completely behind?

Mama Qian shook her head: “Master came back and only saw Brother Yuan twice, and hasn’t even seen concubine Dong once . ”

Mu s.h.i.+ was impatient: “This woman is really useless . I have promoted her in every way . If it weren’t for me, I’m afraid she wouldn’t even have an heir!”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse . com]

This concubine Dong was originally Mu s.h.i.+’s distant cousin, who was jealous but wanted to earn herself a virtuous status, so she accepted her for General Yu . In terms of her status, concubine Dong was considered a good concubine, but she was cowardly by nature, and usually silent . General Yu, however, had been there a few times after taking the house, and then she was not favored very much .

Mu s.h.i.+ originally wanted to use concubine Dong to pull General Yu’s heart, but it went against her wish . Now General Yu was fascinated by concubine Mei, so how could he care for the taciturn concubine Dong .

Mama Qian did not dare to say anything when she heard Mu s.h.i.+’s words . In the beginning, Mu s.h.i.+ selected concubine Dong because of her beautiful appearance and soft temper . If she was also a demon with an improper mind, how could Mu s.h.i.+ tolerate it?

Mu s.h.i.+ thought for a while . After all, she still had to solve the problem in front of her of concubine Mei, so she said: “If the master sends someone over these few days, just say that I am sick, and I will not see him . ”

After pus.h.i.+ng for a few days first and then waiting for a while, she naturally had a way to deal with General Yu .
